Origin Chapter 754: The elixir is here

When Wu Zhongyuan said these words, his tone was already very severe. Wu Di knew very well that if he persuaded him again, it would probably make Wu Zhongyuan angry. She also knew Wu Zhongyuan very well. As a man, Wu Zhongyuan was almost impeccable. But as a Yellow Emperor, Wu Zhongyuan had shortcomings. Out of loyalty and courage, he sometimes ignored the overall situation.

"The sage's words are very true. When you live in the world, you can't believe what you say." Wu Di was afraid that Wu Zhongyuan would leave the hall and cut off the chance of persuasion, so he pointed to the dragon chair and asked him to sit on the seat. Tea break."

Wu Zhongyuan knew the intention of Wu Di's move and was unwilling to take his seat, so he turned and walked outside the hall, "I'm not thirsty, this matter is settled as it is, there is no room for loopback."

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan didn't listen to the persuasion, Wu Di was very anxious. In desperation, she could only look to Jiang Nan for help, hoping that she could persuade her.

Jiang Nan's thoughts are the same as Wu Zhongyuan's. As a court in the Central Plains, if she doesn't keep her word, how will she govern the country and subdue the public in the future, but Wu Di's eyes are anxious and earnest for help, and she is inconvenient to keep silent and helpless. He had no choice but to step forward and hold Wu Zhongyuan, "It's not too late, let's rest for a while."

Wu Zhongyuan knew that the two would persuade them again after they were seated, but he did not refute the face of the two. Although he was the Yellow Emperor, he had the right to be arbitrary, but as a husband and wife, he had to give the two queens face.

Thinking of this, I turned around and walked towards the dragon chair, "How is Queen Wang?"

Wu Di said, "Your Highness is at ease, Queen Wang is recuperating in the Central Palace. I went to see her earlier and she was breathing smoke in the courtyard."

Listening to Wu Di's words, Wu Zhongyuan felt relieved, and he still wanted to smoke, which proved that there was no serious problem.

After being seated, Wu Di picked up the teapot from the stove on the right side of the stage and poured tea for Wu Zhongyuan. The tea drinking method at this time was different from the tea drinking method of later generations. .

Wu Zhongyuan took a sip from the teacup and found that the tea was not crispy, it should have been freshly placed this morning.

This detail made him feel so relieved. As the Yellow Emperor, he deserved such respect. Whether he was in court or not, tea should be brewed.

Seeing that Wu Di was frowning and thinking, Wu Zhongyuan knew that she was considering the words of persuasion, and after sighing, he said, "Your concerns are not completely unreasonable, but we can't do that. First, our conscience can't be dealt with, you see that Liu Brothers, one has a broken arm and the other is blind, which shows how difficult it is for them to obtain the alchemy items. We have already asked for half of the lion's mouth, and even their remaining half will be invaded, which is really unreasonable. Besides, Now there are so many people gathered outside the city, and they all smell the strange fragrance, they are all guessing that there is a good fortune elixir, if we take it as our own, how will the world see us, and how will we deal with ourselves in the future?"

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Wu Di nodded again and again, "The sage is far-sighted, but the ministers and concubines are ill-conceived and short-sighted."

"I know what you're worried about, but I'm actually worried too," Wu Zhongyuan said. "If it's a three-dimensional elixir, it's not something to be afraid of if someone else gets it. It will definitely increase the variables. But we can't go back on our word, and we can only blame us for thinking too little before, and we didn't expect this to happen."

Wu Di nodded and looked at Jiang Nan, "Empress Jiang has been guarding the cauldron. In your opinion, what kind of elixirs are in this cauldron?"

Jiang Nan didn't answer immediately when he heard the words, but frowned and tilted his head, pondering.

Seeing her look like this, Wu Di had a scruple in her heart. Jiang Nan didn't immediately say that she didn't know, which meant that she still had some judgments, but it was difficult to make such judgments specific and precise.

"But it doesn't matter, we are just guessing and not seeking accuracy." Wu Di said.

Hearing Wu Di's words, Jiang Nan was less concerned and said, "I have found a pattern when the furnace has been opened many times before. When Hunyuan Ding Cheng Dan, the medicinal herbs in the Ding are chasing after the stars, and the top grades are the first , the middle grade is the body, and the lower grade is the tail. This time the furnace is opened, and the color of the star head is between yellow and white when the elixir is condensed, so I suspect that the elixir in the cauldron should be a silver-white jade spirit, or a pale yellow Taiyuan."

Wu Zhongyuan's heart froze when he heard the words. The Changxing mentioned by Jiang Nan is the comet mentioned by later generations. Since the things in the cauldron are in a state of rapid rotation during the alchemy, the medicinal pills will also rotate rapidly in the cauldron after the alchemy is completed. Observing through the observation window, it was as if a comet was spinning rapidly inside the tripod.

"Which is more likely?" Wu Di asked.

Jiang Nan is not as meticulous as Wu Di's mind, he can say whatever he thinks, "70% may be pale yellow Taiyuan."

As soon as this statement came out, Wu Di became more and more nervous, and Wu Zhongyuan's worries also increased a bit. Taiyuan was equal to the Jinxian cultivation base of later generations. Although it was in the early stage of Jinxian, it was still three steps higher than him. Whatever the other party wanted to do, he couldn't stop it.

The two were already worried, and Jiang Nan's next addition made them even more worried, "Not only 70%, but at least 80% may be pale yellow Taiyuan."

"What's the basis?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a deep voice.

"The shape of the long star," Jiang Nan said, "the Hunyuan Cauldron cannot be activated manually, it will only be activated automatically after it is filled with enough spiritual objects. In this way, the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual objects in the Cauldron will disappear every time it is opened. They are roughly equal, but the number of completed pills varies. If there are no high-level pills condensed, there will be more pills in the cauldron, and Changxing's comet tail will be long and fluffy. The amount of internal medicine will be greatly reduced, and the tail of the long star will be short and narrow."

Jiang Nan just expressed his own observations and judgments, without any scruples about the feelings and worries of the two, but this is why Wu Zhongyuan admires her. Jiang Nan is very pure, not stupid, but more Sincerity, there is a saying that every time a dog is slaughtered, it is a scholar who has a negative heart. Although this statement is a bit one-sided, it is not without reason. People with simple minds are often more sincere, while people with complex minds think more and look forward to the future. , it is difficult to be pure.

Wu Di found that Wu Zhongyuan was very worried, so she looked at him with an inquiring look, hoping that he would change his mind.

But she was disappointed. Although Wu Zhongyuan was worried, he did not change his mind. He picked up the teacup and drank the tea inside, put down the teacup and stood up, "Even if it's Taiyuan, give it to them."

If I tried to persuade him again, Wu Di would not be Wu Di anymore. After sighing, he nodded.

Seeing Wu Di's depression and frustration, Wu Zhongyuan was more than reluctant to give up. Wu Di wanted to keep the medicinal pills in Dan Ding not for her own use, but to leave the medicinal pills to him. Her intention was good.

Thinking of this, he said in a harmonious voice, "Although right and wrong depends on success or failure, justice still lies in people's hearts. Even if it is really a spiritual elixir, we will keep our promise and return them. From now on, there will be no one in the world. Those who doubt our integrity, even the most skeptical, will believe us. Even our enemies will admire us."

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Wu Di nodded heavily, "The sage is magnanimous and bright, but the ministers and concubines are narrow-minded."

"What is magnanimous and bright, I have no choice but to balance the two interests." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Wu Di said again, "My concubine has a suggestion. When the furnace is opened later, can I select a few outsiders to watch the palace and be a witness, and it can be widely spread to the world after the event, so as to rectify the name of my Central Plains court. "

"Okay, you can do it." Wu Zhongyuan nodded.

"Okay." Wu Di agreed.

The important thing was decided, and the three of them left the Zhongtian Hall.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan coming out, the green hat hurriedly greeted the black hat with a nervous smile on their faces. They are not fools. Furnace also confirmed their guess. Although it was a big luck, the initiative was in the hands of others, and it was still in the middle of whether he could get the medicine pill.

"Lord Yellow Emperor," the green hat cautiously accompanied his smiling face, "you are a wise man of the ages, with both wisdom and courage, and a righteousness. Before the furnace was opened, the two of us had discussed it. , then I offer my lord, and it can be regarded as a meager force for the human race to resist outsiders."

Hearing the words of the green hat, Wu Zhongyuan felt inexplicably sad. He knew that the green hat was not telling the truth. The two brothers could not do anything. His eyes were also pecked out, but he didn't dare to use the good medicine, and he couldn't even keep what should belong to him.

Wu Zhongyuan patted the green hat on the shoulder, "I appreciate your kindness. After half a column of incense, the furnace can be opened. No matter what kind of medicine is in it, it is all for you, and we will never seize it. and will not allow others to meddle."

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, the brothers both cried. Wu Zhongyuan was the Yellow Emperor, so he could make a final decision. Thinking of getting a good medicine pill, and thinking about the hardships of obtaining the medicine materials before, I had mixed feelings in my heart. Both happy and sad.

Wu Di left temporarily to choose who to watch when the furnace was opened.

Wu Zhongyuan wanted to take the opportunity to go to the harem to see Wang Xinran, but he was worried that something might happen, so he didn't dare to be negligent and stayed at the scene in case of an accident.

High-level medicinal herbs are rare. Worrying that Wang Xinran will miss the opportunity to open her eyes, Wu Zhongyuan ordered the imperial guards to go to the harem to invite her.

Not long after, Wang Xinran came hurriedly, although his face was pale, but his face was full of joy.

"When did you come back?" Wang Xinran asked.

"Just got back." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Seeing that Wang Xinran was not wearing a queen's costume, but a big cloak at will, Wu Zhongyuan asked casually, "You are the queen, why don't you change your clothes when you come out to meet people?"

Wang Xinran glanced at Wu Zhongyuan, but did not answer.

At this time, Wu Di returned and brought back five people. These people Wu Zhongyuan had an impression. They were all people who came to give gifts to him when he got the Hunyuan Cauldron, and they also sent deposits to borrow. Mixed Yuanding people.

After the five people arrived, they rushed to Wu Zhongyuan to greet Wu Zhongyuan. After returning the salute, Wu Zhongyuan brought everyone to the entrance of the Dan Palace and invited the Liu brothers into the Dan Palace. He and Wang Xinran and Wu Di stood at the door, while the audience was blocked by the door. Besides, you can see it but you can't touch it.

"Open the furnace." Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand to Jiang Nan.

Jiang Nan nodded and stepped forward to start the furnace, while A Luo was on guard.

From Jiang Nan to Dan Ding, until she opened the Dan mouth, everyone held their breath.

The elixir mouth opened, and the medicinal pills in the cauldron rolled out one by one.

After seeing the color of the first pill, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Although Wu Zhongyuan didn't lose his voice in shock, he took a deep breath. Jiang Nan's previous inference was correct, and there really was a pale yellow Taiyuan elixir...
