Chapter 51 Zhao Feng’s Assassination

[The First Year of Heavenly Essence]

Only one ginseng plant can produce its essence for one year?

Gu Wen was slightly disappointed. Ginseng was undoubtedly the most precious elixir among them, but there were only four ginseng in it.

The quantity of other various medicines such as Polygonum multiflorum, Ganoderma lucidum, Angelica sinensis, Polygonatum sibiricum, etc. ranges from one to ten, and the actual number of Tianmui may not be as much as a bag of medicinal fruits.

These elixirs are more valuable than medicinal fruits and are probably easier to absorb. Gu Wen can actually feel that when ginseng is eaten, there is a warm current in the stomach, while medicinal fruits are like gunpowder.

If he practices this way for a long time, he will damage his foundation. But with the help of his destiny, he has no such worries. The destiny allows him to realize enlightenment at once, and the delay of his practice due to poison can be said to be insignificant.

Gu Wen reached out to Polygonum multiflorum again. Although the amount of Tianmui was not large, it was still a good elixir.

Putting aside the Heavenly Essence, taking these elixirs can not only replenish one's magic power, but also speed up one's practice with some of the medicinal properties that one's destiny does not absorb. One's destiny does not accept all the properties of elixirs, and some of them may be extremely special substances.

It may also be that this substance itself is called Heavenly Essence, and its existence makes it unique, and it is only here that Heavenly Essence can appear.

Others also cultivate their Dao foundation through the elixir grown in the Immortal Land. If there are similar elixirs outside, they have no reason to risk their way in. Even if there are similar elixirs, at least the elixir of the Immortal Land is extremely useful outside. Rare.

He Huan looked heartbroken and couldn't help but said: "Brother Hongchen is such a waste of resources by taking the elixir like this. If you don't know an alchemist, I can help you introduce him."

Gu Wen thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense. Since he couldn't provide a large amount of heavenly marrow in a short time like medicine and fruit, it was better to refine it into elixirs. The amount of heavenly marrow was larger, and he could also trade it.

This is exchanging inferior assets for snake oil.

"In that case, please leave it to Brother He."

He casually stuffed the other party with all the elixirs except for the medicine and fruit, with a casual attitude as if he didn't care at all.

He Huan was stunned for a moment and asked: "Brother Hongchen trusts me so much, isn't he afraid that I will just run away with the medicine?"

Gu Wen was naturally afraid. Although he was not as good as Yao Guo, he still had more than ten years of Tian Mian. But just as he was very accurate in seeing people, he was even more accurate in seeing himself, and he had a very clear positioning for himself.

His current persona is that of a peerless genius. Will He Huan destroy his friendship with him for a bag of elixir?

"I trust Brother He's character."

Gu Wen's tone was serious, and combined with his usual cold attitude, he looked so solemn.

He Huan was so touched that he was so valued that he solemnly said without even mentioning his reward: "Brother Hongchen will definitely not suffer any loss."

Then Gu Wen glanced at the pitted spear in his hand. Although it was nurtured by the Zhaolie Spear, it was obvious that the rate of birth of Qi and blood was not as fast as the loss, or it might be a defect of the ordinary soldier.

He asked: "Brother He, when can I get the magical weapon you promised me before?"

He Huan replied: "It will probably take a few months. As the descendant of Qianlong Villa is one of the best weapon makers, there are many people asking him to make weapons. However, if Brother Hongchen has no special request, I suggest you just buy the existing ones. Weapons, I won’t charge agency fees.”

"Okay." Gu Wen nodded. What kind of bicycle does he want now? He doesn't ask for a good bike, he just wants it not to break down during the battle.

"In a month, we will meet again under the Dragon Bridge."

Then the two said goodbye to each other and left in the night, leaving the commotion on Longqiao outside.

------------------

Gu Wen returned to the water room and climbed into the room through the window. The voices of Jiang Fugui and his guards could be heard outside.

"Master Wen is in a deep sleep. I have woken him up and will come out later."

At this time, it was still half an hour before the agreed time for the elixir to be released. Gu Wen put away the stolen medicine and took off his night clothes that were stained with blood. There were wounds everywhere on his body.

Although the Ling Jade Body Protection Technique can stop the bleeding, and the second layer of strengthened muscles and bones also protects the aorta, it cannot heal the wound quickly. After the adrenaline of the fight subsides, the friction and touch of flesh and blood with clothes will cause pain.

Then he changed into the plain clothes of the past, and the coarse linen clothes worn by merchants were even rougher.

Gu Wen stood in front of the door, his eyes became calm, and his whole temperament returned to ordinary.

He pushed the door open and went out. Jiang Fugui, who was blocking his bodyguard, breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Mian stepped forward and said, "Master Wen, something happened at Longqiao."

"What happened?"

"There was a demon who killed people in the street. Now he has been killed by the immortal master in the palace, but the Dragon Bridge is still blocked by the imperial army and no one can enter."

From the day Yu Hua fell on the Dragon Bridge, the word "immortal" seemed to have become commonplace. Even when Qin Mian said it, there was not much trouble, and it became commonplace.

matter.

"Go and have a look first."

Gu Wen rode a carriage to the outside of Dragon Bridge and was stopped by the Imperial Army in front of Dragon Bridge. Then he turned around and drove to the palace.

At this time, he was already prepared to be scolded, with Zhao Feng's half-empty mentality. He seemed to be well-educated on weekdays, but once he encountered a disadvantage, he would easily lose control and start beating and scolding the servants around him.

Gu Wen also received a few whips during the initial period, but as his ability to make money became stronger and stronger, he gradually gained a little respect.

But he is just a useful minion.

Now was not the chance to fall out. After seeing how wealthy Tianfu Division was, Gu Wen felt that he could think of ways to make trouble a few more times. And if he left Bianjing, where else could he go to get so many elixirs?

Gu Wen was a little confused. He had planned to escape from Bianjing and had some properties and connections in Nanshui.

But he has never planned to 'find the elixir'. He is very clear about his future goals, but very vague about the way to achieve them. Others have roads, and sects and elders have arranged the roads, but he needs to cross the rapid river alone.

.

I don’t know when I can get ashore?

He looked at the scene in Bianjing outside. Qin Mian spanked the horse's butt with a certain pattern, and the slight shaking of the carriage made the fatigue after the fight worse, and sleepiness filled his heart.

The carriage suddenly stopped near the palace, and the imperial army blocked the palace for some unknown reason.

Qin Mian opened the car curtain and watched Gu Wen leaning against the car window with his eyes closed and breathing softly.

He did not wake up Gu Wen, but quietly stepped out of the carriage and used his identity as a forbidden soldier to inquire about the situation. He did not know that the man in the carriage who fell asleep due to exhaustion had committed a killing spree at Longqiao not long ago. Qin Mian only knew that the man was

In exchange for his own merit and money, he was able to gain a foothold in Bianjing.

Before coming to Bianjing, Qin Mian thought that he was here to enjoy the blessings. In fact, compared to the frontier, this was indeed the case. But he was also choked by the layers of connections in Bianjing, including being a picker of dung in the Forbidden Army camp.

You also need to have connections, at least the relative is a tenth general (squad leader) of the Forbidden Army.

Gu Wen treated him well, even if he knew about it, he wouldn't say a word.

After about a stick of incense, Qin Mian returned to the carriage, gently shook Gu Wen awake, and said, "Master Wen, something happened in the palace. His Highness the Ninth Prince was assassinated just now."

Gu Wen's hazy sleepiness disappeared immediately.
