My plug-in is a fairy grass

Chapter 619 Walking on knees and weeping (two-in-one chapter for subscription)
"Squeak-"

The cauldron cover pressing on it was slowly pushed away, and the dazzling sunlight shone straight down.

Immediately, the tripod cover flew up, spun and became smaller and smaller, and finally fell into the hands of an old man.

A group of four people stepped on the clouds and fog, and slowly landed in the center of the giant tripod.

Although the four people's figures are elegant and free, but if you look closely at their expressions, they all have serious faces, cloudy.

The old man in a crimson robe headed by him was Yao Zun, who angrily glanced at the mess on the ground, and his voice was bone-chillingly cold:

"Where are people? Why are there so few?"

Zi Dou behind him hurriedly reported: "To my ancestors, a total of more than 550 remains were found at the scene, including half-damaged limbs and arms. Chuang, should have died under siege..."

"Only four people?" Yaozun's voice was low, seemingly without any emotion: "Where are there six more people? Where did the tens of thousands of prisoners go?"

At this time, Gu Zheng, who was checking not far away, hurried over, holding a black stone in his hand:

"Master Shengzun," the Nascent Soul True Monarch knelt down with a plop, and said in panic, "Those traitors, most likely, escaped, escaped!"

The Yaozun's eyes fell on the stone: "A top-grade Kongming stone? You mean, they left through the teleportation array?"

"This subordinate preliminarily deduces so." Gu Zheng replied honestly.

"Impossible!" Yaozun said angrily, "This Fushouding cauldron, this deity, forms a space of its own! With these ant-like prisoners, how could it be possible to arrange a teleportation array that passes through the space barrier!"

"Gu Zheng, the old man asks you, do you have the ability?"

"The subordinate is incompetent," Gu Zheng said with his head down, "it's just..."

With a wave of his hand, he took a piece of gravel the size of a millstone from a distance, and one side of it was engraved with numerous runes:
"Please look, my lord," he pointed to these runes and said, "This kind of runes has never been seen before. At first glance, it looks simple and ancient, but after careful consideration, it becomes more and more mysterious. The direction of its context, nine out of ten are related to space..."

"My subordinates speculate that among these prisoners, there should be people who are proficient in ancient formations. Although the Fushou Cauldron is an independent space, it has a lot of gaps and is greatly influenced by this world. Therefore, even some low-level monks arranged this space. A teleportation array that travels through space is not impossible..."

Gu Zheng is the No. 1 refiner in the Mountain Realm, and almost no one who is proficient in refiners is not good at formations. In fact, he is also the No.1 in formations. He's done.

The Yaozun is not a person who knows nothing about the formation. Hearing this, he picked up the gravel and put it in front of him for a while, then took the Kongming stone, looked carefully, and suddenly his expression changed:
"Huang Ji?"

Gu Zheng didn't know who Huang Ji was, he stared blankly at Yao Zun, not daring to make a sound.

Yang Zhen didn't know that the high-grade Kongming stone he obtained from the underground palace actually had a mark carved by old man Huang Ji on it, which made Yaozun guess its origin at once.

So by mistake, the Yaozun believed [-]% of Gu Zheng's speculation.

"Could it be that there are relics left by Huang Ji in the domain of my mountain?" He wondered secretly.

Gu Zheng raised his head and saw Yao Zun's face, it seemed that he was not as angry as before, so he boldly continued:

"This subordinate thinks that this matter may have something to do with that fairy girl..."

"Huh?" Yaozun looked back indifferently.

"In recent years, there have been several major cases of untouchables missing in various places. At the invitation of Master Zi Dou, my subordinates have gone to the scene to investigate," Gu Zheng said in an orderly manner: "My subordinates and Master Zi Dou agree that the demon girl named Dong Xiao The untouchables should be sent away by means of teleportation. However, no traces of the teleportation array were left at the scene. This time, it should be the first time they have exposed the appearance of this teleportation array..."

"Zidou, what do you have to say?" Yaozun interrupted his narration, turned around and asked.

The son Dou listened for a long time, and when he heard the ancestor calling him, he hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said:

"Old ancestor, my boy is guilty! Master Gu's speculation, my boy thinks it is reasonable."

Suppressing, apprehending, and chasing down rebels from all over the world are the duties of Zi Dou, the head of the Fuyao Palace. The most important thing is the major disappearance case in recent years.

Unexpectedly, he didn't have any clues here, he had already found the foot of Fuyao Mountain, and even quietly took away tens of thousands of monks, ruining the great affairs of the ancestors.

The Yaozun looked at this underachiever, and was so angry that he scolded:
"You incompetent guy! When you're free, learn more about formations and alchemy, don't stay in the mansion all the time, fooling around with those women!"

"Yes."

"To set up such a teleportation array, the materials used are not one or two. How did these things be brought in?" After a while, the Yaozun continued to ask.

Several people looked at each other.

Zi Dou had just been scolded by the ancestor, and now he rushed to say: "Ancestor, the prisoners have been searched long ago, and they are still in shackles, so they can't do such a thing. The most suspicious person is the one who entered last. How many Zifu!"

Standing a few feet away, Zhenjun Hanrui, who had been in a trance, trembled involuntarily.

Yaozun pretended not to see him, and asked with a sneer, "Zidou, out of the ten men in black, how many of them were sent by you, and how are they doing now?"

"Haier sent two people." Zi Dou pointed to the remains of two men in black not far away: "They are all dead."

"Where is Master Gu Zheng?"

"My subordinates secretly sent someone," Gu Zheng also pointed to a corpse on the ground: "He is also dead."

"A bunch of waste!" Yaozun was furious, turned around and looked at Han Rui:
"Master Han, it was your suggestion to send Zifu killers to the furnace to speed up the refining process, and the old man also entrusted you to preside over this matter. Tell me, where are the people you sent? ?”

"I heard that there is a man named Hu Zan, who has the most perfect cultivation and the strongest strength in the Zifu. Where is the body of this man?"

"My lord, my subordinates sent, sent two people..." Han Rui tremblingly said: "They, all, are not dead."

While speaking, he took out two soul cards made of white jade from the ring.

Zi Dou walked over and snatched it away, and handed it to Yaozun with both hands.

The Yaozun took one of them, and saw a cloud of black mist lingering in the middle of the white jade card, the color was already very dim, but looking carefully, the black mist was still slowly turning.

"The soul is extremely weak, it seems that the injury is not serious!" Yaozun sneered, pressing his palm in the middle of the jade tablet, a spell entered, and he closed his eyes to sense it.

After a while, he opened his eyes with a little surprise on his face: "This old man really underestimated these ants, and they have already exceeded the range of five thousand miles..."

The sensing range of the soul card is related to the material used to make the soul card, the strength of the soul, and the cultivation level of the sensor.With the power of the Yaozun, the maximum sensing range of this soul card is five thousand miles, but he got nothing.

He threw the soul card to Zi Dou: "Here, take it, with these two soul cards in hand, no matter how far they escape to the ends of the earth, you have to find them for me!"

"Yes!" Zi Dou promised loudly.

"Did the other five death row prisoners leave their soul cards?"

"Well," Zi Dou said with a look of embarrassment on his face, "I didn't want them to live, so, no, I didn't keep their soul cards."

"Confused!" Yaozun wished he could kick him twice.

But he was also an afterthought.Zi Dou was actually right, no matter how many prisoners those men in black killed, they would all die in the end.

Yaozun used human monks as furnace materials to refine the water of life for him to prolong his life. This matter was taboo. Once it was leaked out, it would cause great panic and resentment among the human monks.Naturally, the fewer people who know about it, the better, so how could these few lives be left behind?

Since he will die sooner or later, why bother to make some kind of soul card?
It's just that no one expected that among the five people, except for one who was killed by Yang Zhen because of his bloodthirsty nature, the other four escaped!

"Arrest the clansmen of Hu Zan and the two of them, and kill them all, leaving no one behind!" Yao Zun said murderously.

"Yes!" Zi Dou replied again.

Since entering the Juding, the Yaozun has been discussing the problem without haste and analyzing the reasons, and he doesn't seem to be that angry.Until now, the words "Kill them all, leave no one behind" finally showed everyone his inner anger and undisguised killing intent!
The cold face is like dead ashes, and the delicate body shakes like chaff.

"Master Han, what else do you have to say?" Yaozun stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the woman coldly.

"Your subordinates do not know who they are, and they miss the important business of the Holy One. They deserve death!" Han Rui took off the phoenix bead and emerald crown on his head, took off the golden phoenix red gauze skirt, disheveled his hair, and knelt on the ground in white clothes and plain clothes. His head pressed tightly to the ground, tears streaming down his face.

Although there are no witnesses or material evidence, the matter is clear at a glance. It must be that Hu Zan secretly brought in various materials, and then joined forces with several other men in black to cooperate internally and externally to kill the undercover agents who got in the way.Immediately afterwards, a teleportation array was built to send everyone away.

Even if Han Rui wanted to argue, and had checked the storage bags of Hu Zan and the others before the incident, what's the point?
Hu Zan is the subordinate she sent out, the strongest, and he is not dead yet, if it is said that he did not participate, who will believe it?
If the most reasonable explanation has been found for something, any excuse you make will, in the eyes of others, be an expression of denial of guilt.

That would only lead to greater misfortune.

It's better to admit your negligence honestly, with a humble attitude, and maybe you can get a good result.

Moreover, she is not without a little support.

……

The Yaozun looked at her expressionlessly, but was weighing repeatedly in his mind.

According to his original intention, regardless of whether this Han Rui committed such a big mistake intentionally or unintentionally, he should be killed!
But, can he kill it?
He has refined the water of life twice successively, and so far only harvested more than [-] drops, which are only for him to prolong his life by one year.

How could he just give up like this?
However, if he continues to refine, apart from the woman in front of him, in the entire mountain area, he will never find another person who is proficient in alchemy, and there will be no second person who can drive the Fushou Ding for him to refine the spirit of life. water.

Except for a very small number of cultivation skills such as alchemy and talisman formations, almost all of them are mastered by the human race. The monster race has neither talent nor interest in learning.

Just like Gu Zheng, he was also irreplaceable in the Dao of Artifacts and the Dao of Formation, so he could only symbolically punish the other party with hundreds of thousands of spirit stones as punishment for the first refining failure.

"Do you really think that I dare not kill you?" The supreme venerable in the mountain domain changed his expression several times, and the killing intent was almost gushing out.

In the end, reason overcame impulse, he let out a long sigh, and his voice slowed down:
"Han Rui, you are also an old man who has been with me for hundreds of years, my lord, I can trust you!"

As soon as these words came out, Han Rui could no longer suppress the grievance in her heart, and burst into tears.

She walked all the way to Yaozun, hugging his thigh, crying heartbreakingly, while crying, she kissed the back of the old man's leg with her lips, tears pouring down like springs.

This is a custom on the mountain side, usually when children do something wrong and apologize to their parents.

At this time, Han Rui, the majestic Yuanying Zhenjun, was like a girl scolded by her parents, crying uncontrollably.

Yaozun's tense face gradually softened, stretched out his hands to caress Han Rui's hair, and sighed:

"Fool, although you are a human race, in the eyes of this old man, you are the same as Zi Dou, so why are you not my descendant?"

"Do things well, I will treat you badly, and Gu Zheng, you are all the same. After the refining of the water of life is completed, the two of you will seal off the territory and split the land, and each will lead a land to build an empire. This old man will never break his promise!"

Han Rui didn't answer, just hugged her thigh and cried even harder.

Gu Zheng knelt down at the side in fear and trepidation: "The sage is so loving, how dare this subordinate refuse to die? We will spare no effort to refine the water of life, so that the sage can enjoy immortal blessings forever and live forever!"

……

After a long time, this good show of the emperor, the sage, and the minister finally came to an end.

Han Rui let go of her burden, her eyes were still red, but her face finally had a touch of rosiness.

The aftermath is still going on.

"How many Foundation Establishment prisoners are in custody?" Yao Zun asked.

"Reporting to the ancestor, there are still more than [-] people." Zi Dou replied.

"Speed ​​dating with a quota of [-] people."

"Yes!"

"When will the next auspicious day be chosen?" Yao Zun looked at Han Rui kindly.

The use of the Fushou Ding involves the rules of heaven and earth here, and is vaguely related to Dan Dao, so Han Rui has the most say.

Just as the woman was about to speak, she suddenly noticed that Zi Dou on the opposite side was winking at her, while quietly stretching out a finger.

She suddenly realized that although the Yaozun did not set a time limit, the 500 people who made up the difference obviously couldn't be completed in a day or two, it would take at least a month.

So she calmed down and said, "October tenth not only means perfection, but also one of the five rich days. It produces prosperous gold, which is conducive to the operation of the red copper and fine gold as the body. And gold produces water. If the gold is prosperous, the water will be sufficient, and the output of the water of life will definitely be abundant and sufficient at that time."

"Okay!" Hearing these words, Yao Zun felt relieved, and nodded again and again: "Then the tenth day of October! Zi Dou, within one month, you must gather the number of people, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Yes!" Zi Dou gave Han Rui a grateful look, and quickly agreed.

"Gu Zheng, go to my treasury tomorrow and get another nine top-grade spirit stones." Yao Zun continued to order.

Although most of the top-grade spirit stones in the formation are still alive, they are not enough to withstand a complete operation.

"Yes!"

After everything was settled, the Yaozun got up and was about to leave, but Gu Zheng's lips were murmured, as if he still wanted to say something.

"What else is there?"

"This," Gu Zheng hesitated for a moment, and said, "This teleportation array and the runes on it, I still want to think about it."

"Then I'll give it to you, take it back..."

"Holy One," Gu Zheng said hastily, "I want to stay in the cauldron to study."

"Why is this?" Yaozun frowned imperceptibly.

Gu Zheng lowered his head and didn't pay attention, he explained: "The teleportation array has been blown up, but according to the degree of breakage of each stone and the distance from the explosion center, although it can't be 100% restored, it is still possible to restore part of it. Yes. The subordinates want to stay here and try to restore the original appearance of this teleportation array so that they can learn..."

The Yaozun frowned more and more, and anger flashed in his eyes.

Gu Zheng still doesn't know, but maybe to enhance his persuasiveness, he finally said: "After restoring the teleportation array, there may be some possibility that the subordinates can find out where those untouchables are going."

The last sentence moved Yaozun's heart.

"Okay!" He said, "I will give you a month."
