Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 257: Witchcraft
After saying a sentence, the emperor took a deep breath. After a pause, he looked at Guangxiao, who had a terrified expression on his face, and continued: "It seems that there was a reason for Emperor Wu's execution of the alchemist. I have brought all the texts of alchemists. Guangxiao. You can see for yourself. At that time, the alchemist profession had been dying out for many years, so six or seven of the witchcraft cases were related to the alchemy profession."
At the end of the day, the emperor waved his hand. A small servant picked up the tablets scattered all over the place, and these tablets had year marks on them. After sorting it out according to the sign, it was sent to Hiroko.
Guangxiao pretended to read a few scrolls of tablets, Liu Xi patiently waited until the monk put down the third scroll, and then said again: "I always thought that Emperor Wu had seen cases of witchcraft being reported from various places. Misunderstood the alchemist class, which led to the destruction of the methods. Later, Emperor Guangwu saw the clue with his unique eyes. This was the vindication of the alchemist class. Now it seems that Emperor Wu did the right thing, and the wrong thing was Emperor Guangwu...;...;"
After listening to the emperor's words, Guangxiao put back the fourth scroll that he had picked up. Immediately, he knelt on the ground and touched his head to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this booklet was filled with witchcraft. Guangxiao has been out of the practice of alchemy for decades. I really don't know if this has anything to do with the practice of alchemy. Filial piety does not dare to make assumptions.”
"Master, you misunderstood. I called you into the palace, and I didn't ask Master whether the incident at the beginning was related to the alchemist." After a pause, Liu Xi stared into Guangxiao's eyes and continued: "I want to Ask the master, what the Emperor Wu did in those days, I can't do it?"
After listening to the emperor's words, Guangxiao shivered. It was not until Liu Xi repeated his words that Guangxiao came back to his senses, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this matter should not be asked of a monk. Although Guangxiao is a disciple of Shimen, he is a alchemist. Be impartial...;...;"
"Guangxiao. Don't you still understand?" At this time, Liu Xi's face showed an impatient expression. After a stern smile, the emperor urgently said to monk Guangxiao: "I called you into the palace. Judging from your experience as an alchemist. Is there anyone around me who knows more about alchemy than you? Guangxiao only needs to weigh the pros and cons and answer what I just said. Emperor Wu killed the alchemist in the past. If I want to kill the alchemist again .You say——does it work?"
Hiroko lowered his head for a long time without saying a word. Almost at the time when the emperor was angry and was about to ask for the monk Shen. Suddenly Guangxiao slowly raised his head and only said two words to Liu Xi: "It's possible...;...;"
For three days in a row, the emperor said that he was ill and did not go to court early. Three days later, in the evening, a soft sedan chair took the monk Guangxiao out of the palace. The day after Guangxiao left the palace, the emperor Liu Xi, who had been ill for several days, suddenly became terminally ill.
The Imperial Physician in the current palace has repeatedly diagnosed and treated, but has not found the cause of the emperor's fainting. After seeing that the medicine stone was ineffective, the Queen Mother hurriedly recruited the new presiding monk of the White Horse Temple into the palace, chanting sutras and praying for the emperor. However, I don’t know what scriptures these monks recite. It’s fine if they don’t. After reading this, the emperor vomited blood. Among the blood that Liu Xi spit out, there were also jute talismans that had not been burnt out.
After seeing the ashes, the chief chamberlain serving the emperor immediately stopped the monk. Afterwards, the manager collected the ashes of the rune paper and sent them to the Queen Mother, claiming that someone had harmed Her Majesty with witchcraft. When the house attendant was in charge of children, he had seen people from the same village offend the wizard. He also vomited this kind of blood with ashes of the talisman paper. At that time, people were already dying. Finally, a passing alchemist saw it. The spell saved the man and punished the sorcerer. This kind of thing cannot be solved by monks reciting sutras. Go to the alchemist sect and ask the great alchemist to come and rescue him.
After hearing the words of the chief chamberlain, the queen mother hurriedly dispatched an 800-mile expedited horse. Go to the alchemist door and invite the two great alchemists to the palace, and the queen mother is still explaining it in the decree. It's about the emperor's comfort, so please don't stick to common sense and just use your magical powers to come to the palace.
After hurried out of the city, the Queen Mother issued another decree to urgently summon the alchemists around Luoyang into the palace. Ask these alchemists to cast spells, be sure to save the emperor's life before the two great alchemists reach the palace. a time. The alchemists became popular again. In just one day, more than 200 alchemists gathered in the palace, and alchemists from the counties and counties around the capital were coming one after another.
At that time, only the alchemist sect had a roster of sages in the world. There are more than 10,000 fake alchemists eating under the banner of alchemists. At this time, it doesn't matter whether these alchemists are real or fake, as long as there are really capable people who protect the emperor's life, the queen mother will recognize it.
Fortunately, after these real and fake alchemists cast spells, the emperor really stopped vomiting blood, but he still did not wake up in a coma. After seeing the alchemist's spells against the symptoms, the queen mother put all her hopes on the two great alchemists.
Three days later. It was the day when the horses rushed to the Fangshi Zongmen. After the two great masters met Yi Zhi, they would immediately cast their spells and rushed to the palace. At the moment, the empress dowager and all the civil and military officials are anxiously waiting for the two grand masters to suddenly appear from the sky.
However, the Queen Mother was a little disappointed. Until it gets dark. A red-haired figure suddenly appeared beside the emperor's sickbed. Among the alchemists there were a few genuine ones. After these people saw the red-haired man, they immediately saluted and said that Dafang Shi had arrived.
No matter what, the current Dafangshi Volcano has finally arrived. At the moment, the queen mother condescended to ask this person to save the emperor's life. Volcano was still a polite person. After facing the Queen Mother's luggage, he immediately started to come over to check on Liu Xi's condition.
After checking the emperor's condition, Volcano comforted the queen mother a few words. Claiming that the emperor was indeed victimized by witchcraft. However, in the eyes of Dafang Shi, such witchcraft is nothing. As long as the spell is properly cast, the emperor can be restored to his original state within an hour.
At the moment, the volcano retreated and scattered the alchemists. He alone pierced the emperor's earlobes and fingertips, and released the black blood from the fingertips. Then he began to cast the magic technique to expel the poison of witchcraft in Liu Xiu's body along the wound. I saw that the blood from the emperor's wound was like ink, and the stench that came out made it impossible to stay in the palace.
After holding back for a while, the queen mother was supported by the maids out of the palace, and waited outside the palace gate to wait for the volcano to cast a spell to rescue the emperor. As Master Dafang said, almost an hour later. The emperor's sigh came out of the bedroom, and then Liu Xi's weak voice followed: "What's the matter with me...;...;What smells so bad, Master Volcano...;...;Why are you here? "
After hearing the emperor's voice, the queen mother almost cried. With the support of everyone, the old lady hurriedly returned to the bedroom. While arranging for someone to open the doors and windows to dissipate the odor, he covered his nose and walked to the emperor. Seeing Liu Xi, who had lost a lot of weight, tears couldn't help shedding: "Emperor, you have gone through life and death. If it wasn't for the great master who came all the way to rescue you, you wouldn't be right at this time. what...;...;"
At the moment, the queen mother told how he fell ill and how worried she was, so she invited Dafang Shi to come forward. Only then did the sobered emperor understand what happened, after thanking the volcano for his life-saving grace. He also sealed the title of Dafang Shi Huguo Zhenren, and gave a few spiritual mountains to the alchemist as a dojo.
Although the emperor was rescued, it is still necessary to trace who did it. While maintaining his body, Liu Wei entrusted the investigation of the thief to Master Volcano. I was just afraid that the thieves would do harm again in secret. Like last time, the volcano had been staying in the palace to guard Liu Xi. A few days later, Dafang Master's disciples rushed to the palace, and they went to investigate the real culprit of witchcraft.
