Chapter 2574 Life and Death
"How could the King of Huainan be so crooked in refining elixirs?"

Zhang Xuezhou thought that the white meat called Li Qi was a new thing that appeared with a very low probability, but he did not expect that King Huainan had accidentally developed the magic gold.

Shujin is a kind of counterfeit currency, but it is also a kind of counterfeit currency that can be circulated.

The King of Huainan, who has an official background, has a unique advantage in using magic gold.

Not to mention that the effect of the magic gold lasts for at least one month, even if the effect of the magic gold only lasts for three days, it is enough to use the magic gold to gain significant benefits.

Zhang Xuezhou just felt that the King of Huainan had incredibly good luck.

It is no surprise that a spy like Hong Ku met with misfortune. The yang soul body that Hong Ku had carefully preserved in Chang'an City collapsed in Huainan.

"I wonder if Mr. Hong Ku has glimpsed the entire process of making magic gold!"

Zhang Xuezhou eavesdropped for a short time and late at night, so what he gained was very limited.

The only thing he was sure of was that King Jiangdu would be in trouble.

It seems that he knows a lot of things, but these things are all superficial.

"Cousin, how is it going?"

Zhang Xuezhou's investigation did not take long, only about half an hour, and most of the time was spent near Zhang Zhou.

He gave a brief explanation and then turned his attention to the Huainan Palace.

"They tried white meat... white meat..."

Rong Tianding murmured a few times.

Some prisoners may even hope to gamble their lives, thinking that if they keep trying the food and survive by chance they will receive a blessing.

But there is no end to the tasting of white meat.

Zhang Xuezhou tried the food himself and asked Huo Qubing and other children to try it, thus coming to the conclusion that the food was stable and reliable. However, the Huainan Palace used adults and the elderly, which meant that the test would take a longer time and might even cause the people to die.

"Cousin, since you think there is a high probability that they will eat themselves to death, can we let them die first and gamble their lives?" Rong Tianding asked.

"Do you want to see whether their bodies were abandoned or dissected to study the cause of death?" Zhang Xuezhou frowned.

"This is better than actually eating to death!"

No matter how good the food is, it is impossible to eat it every day. It is okay to eat hard white meat, but the stomachs of those who drink watery drinks and eat moldy and hairy food simply cannot withstand it.

When the test was conducted on death row inmates, there was no intention to keep these people alive.

Some people in Zhangjiazhuang stepped into this dangerous situation where there was a chance of death.

"It seems that my cousin has some means!" said Zhang Xuezhou.

"This is no different from the zombie horses I control," Rong Tianding nodded and said, "As long as I remove the spell as soon as possible, their bodies will be able to recover and come back to life!"

Rong Tianding reached out and took out a gray pill the size of a longan from his pocket.

"But if time is delayed for too long, their bodies will become stiff, and they will lose consciousness and turn into dull zombies," Rong Tianding said, "So we must control time as much as possible. The sooner we leave Huainan, the easier it will be to return to normal!"

"Then let's find one and try it first!"

The King of Huainan failed to find Changxing during his search, and Zhang Xuezhou did not expect to gain anything by flying over.

Compared to aimless searching, Zhang Xuezhou would rather do something that can be confirmed at the moment, and he can also continue to stay in the palace area to gather information.

No matter what, once he discovers something, Zhang Xuezhou will fly very fast, much faster than Prince Huainan rushing to his destination. That may be the best way to find out the truth about Changxing.

He reached out to take the pill from Rong Tianding, and when he condensed his yang soul body again, he made it a little more solid so that his yang soul body could grasp the pill.

Once the Yang Soul body is solidified, it is impossible to hide, so Zhang Xuezhou took advantage of the remaining darkness and flew up quickly.

A body as short as an arm cannot release powerful spells, but it does have the advantage of being small.

Flying to the vicinity of Zhang Zhou's prison car again with ease, Zhang Xuezhou discovered that the number of patrolling guards had decreased by 90%, and more of them were guarding the craftsmen rather than the prisoners who were eating.

"Aunt Zhou..."

Although the patrols were much more relaxed, Zhang Xuezhou was not careless.

He whispered, constantly passing messages to Zhang Zhou who had already been identified. After a short communication, Zhang Xuezhou saw that Zhang Zhou, who was trapped in the prison car, had tilted his head full of white hair and opened his mouth wide.

There was no need for so much long-winded communication, or perhaps he had been in despair for too long. After a simple identification, Zhang Zhou cooperated without any hesitation.

Whether to believe the promise of the Huainan Palace or to believe an invisible person from Zhangjiazhuang, Zhang Zhou obviously trusts the latter more.

As a small pill fell from the air, Zhang Zhou's mouth opened wider and wider.

The dry and hard meatball had just fallen into her throat, and she coughed and swallowed it hard.

"Help...help!"

After shouting twice as Zhang Xuezhou reminded her, Zhang Zhou felt her body rapidly getting colder and she could no longer make any sound.

Her eyelids fluttered and she fell into the prison van.

Faintly, Zhang Zhou seemed to hear her own hoarse voice echoing in her ears, and then there were the sounds of many footsteps following.

"How could he die?"

"The dose of plaster she took was far from fatal, how could she die suddenly?"

“Maybe it’s because of my age!”

"These medicine men take more medicine than food. They are very strong and can't die so quickly. Let's check them out first!"

"How about that guy who eats Li Qi who stinks like shit?"

“I haven’t eaten myself to death yet!”

"This is weird, this is not the right thing to do!"

……

The sound eventually disappeared in my ears, but the feeling of being immersed in ice water sank into my heart.

It was not until a ray of red sunlight shone into her eyes that Zhang Zhou struggled to open her eyes.

"These damn quacks actually performed a laparotomy!"

"Thank goodness, cousin, you no longer feel pain after your body became stiff, and your muscles and blood have almost stopped moving. Otherwise, Aunt Zhou would have bled to death before we could pick up her body and use the Taiqing Zhen technique to treat her!"

Two young men with starry eyebrows and sword-like eyes came into view, and Zhang Zhou also heard the speaker of a familiar voice.

She opened her eyes wide, and waited until Zhang Xuezhou helped her up. After Zhang Zhou stood up, she saw the gloomy and rotten earth slopes around her.

There was a corpse shroud stained with black blood on the ground, and some white bones scattered around.

This was obviously a mass grave, and it was also away from the royal city of Huainan.

"This……"

Zhang Zhou opened her mouth, but felt that her speech was still a little slow, and her body seemed to have been lying down for several days and had become less agile.

It was not until Rong Tianding stretched out his hand and pressed on her that Zhang Zhou felt her body come back to life.

"It's a bit risky to rescue a group of people!"

“I can bear it!”

"Aunt Zhou, how many people from our village are still in the palace?"

Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding had a brief discussion, then looked at Zhang Zhoushi, who looked pale and weak.

This caused Zhang Zhou to sob and she kept whispering.

The incident several years ago that led the men of Zhangjiazhuang to flee Beishan brought the women the torture of flogging.

According to the calculation of the numerology, Zhang Chonghe and You Rong's remaining life span is not long. The people of Zhangjiazhuang in Huainan mines are living in agony. Due to various factors, many people have died while working.

Only three or four out of ten are still alive today, leaving only forty-two people.

If you put it off year after year, you will lose people year after year.

Having participated in Li Qi's test, these people could no longer delay at the moment. Even though there was a high risk, Zhang Xuezhou and others had no choice but to give it a try.
