The guards tied up Li Shui quickly.

As a result, Li Shui kept shouting: "Lu Lie destroyed my elixir, why didn't you tie him up?"

Lu Lie's face turned pale.

But the little eunuch didn't care who was right or wrong? He said directly: "Tie Lu Lie up too."

Li Shui shouted again: "These alchemists are all guilty. They are all guilty of destroying my elixir."

The alchemists were all frightened, and they all tried to defend themselves. But the young eunuch didn't listen, and all of them were tied up. Of course, someone would decide whether he was guilty or not.

As a result, the alchemists were tied into a group and marched out of Yingxian Hall.

Li Shui walked in the front, arrogant, as if he had made great achievements.

The alchemists who were following behind all regretted it. If they had known that Huai Guzi was so crazy, they would not have joined in the fun. Now that he has failed in making alchemy, he will definitely die. But when he is about to die, what if he bites back and drags a few people into the water?

Not terrible?

The group of people trembled in fear, and were finally taken to a side hall by the young eunuch.

Li Shui saw a middle-aged man standing in the courtyard.

The middle-aged man was not wearing a complicated dragon robe or an imperial crown, he was just wearing ordinary clothes, but his majestic demeanor was intimidating.

Li Shui immediately guessed that this person was Ying Zheng who had just unified the world.

The young eunuch shouted in a high voice: "Why don't you be polite when you see the king?"

So Li Shui and the alchemists behind him knelt down one after another.

Ying Zheng frowned, but ignored them and just looked at a room.

The door of the house was closed tightly, and there was a faint coughing sound inside.

After a while, the door of the room opened, and an old man with white beard and hair came out. He bowed to Ying Zheng and said in a low voice: "The scab on the young master's back has swollen to a huge extent. It is red and tight and will burst at any time.

At this time, it is no longer possible to take medicine.”

Ying Zheng's expression changed and he asked: "What will happen once it breaks?"

The old man gritted his teeth and said, "It's hard for gods to save you."

Ying Zheng was a little depressed, sighed and said: "That's it, I'm destined to be here, please step back."

The old man bowed and left carrying the medicine box.

Li Shui knelt on the ground, thinking: "Urcerous ulcer? In fact, this thing is just a big pimple on the back. In later generations, it was not considered a disease at all, but in ancient times, it was simply a terminal disease, because once the ulcer collapsed, what followed was

It's an infection. If the infection can be eliminated, it's not difficult to treat..."

Just when Li Shui thought of this, he heard Ying Zheng say calmly: "Who is Huai Guzi?"

Li Shui quickly raised his head and said, "I am Huaiguzi."

Ying Zheng's face was expressionless: "It has been ten days since you came to the palace, and you have not refined a single batch of elixir. Many people have told me that you are a liar. What do you say?"

Before Li Shui could speak, Lu Lie behind him said loudly: "Your Majesty, this Huaiguzi is really a liar. Everyone knows that elixirs belong to the Immortal Family. Such treasures can only be obtained from the Immortal Family. Isn't that right?

Can it be refined by mortals? This demon is misleading the public with his lies, and he is really harboring evil intentions."

After Lu Lie spoke, the other alchemists also agreed, saying that the elixir could only be obtained from the immortal family and could not be refined by oneself.

At this time, Li Shui finally understood why Huaiguzi was hostile.

Originally, the alchemists in Xianyang were all seeking medicine.

This group of people is like the unreliable entrepreneurs of later generations. They boasted to the investor Qin Shihuang, attracted a large amount of investment, and then traveled around the world, euphemistically called seeking immortals.

After all the money was spent, he came back and said that there was something to be seen in the fairyland, but the distance was long and the funds were not enough. So he got another investment.

As a result, this guy Huai Guzi came in rashly and said that there was no need to look for the fairy mountain, I could make an elixir in a furnace. It was economical, affordable, and the results were quick.

This is simply destroying the jobs of the alchemists. Smashing people's jobs means hatred is irreconcilable, so it's no wonder that Lu Lie was sarcastic and sarcastic towards Huaiguzi all day long.

Ying Zheng asked Li Shui: "What did you say?"

Li Shui said calmly: "All the alchemists have been searching for the fairy mountain for decades, but in the end they found nothing. Your Majesty, I will not blame you. Why do you want to blame me if you don't get the elixir in the next ten days?"

Ying Zheng was slightly startled and felt that there was some truth in this statement.

Li Shui was full of energy and continued to say to Ying Zheng: "I am just a mortal body, how difficult is it to refine the elixir? In the past ten days, I have been defeated and defeated again and again. Today I finally have some clues. But I didn't expect that I would be beaten by Lu

It was violently destroyed.”

"Lu Lie and others have been sneaking around, spying endlessly, and adding cynicism to affect my state of mind. As a result, I made a wrong step, causing the immortal energy to suddenly arouse, like a huge flood, all gathered in the small alchemy furnace.

How could the alchemy furnace withstand it? It exploded suddenly, causing the alchemy room to be filled with smoke and dust. If your Majesty doesn't believe it, let people know it at a glance."

Li Shui sighed and said with a sad face: "Refining the elixir also requires opportunities. With the right time, place and people like today, I don't know when we can gather them all. Maybe we can wait another ten years before we can refine the elixir.

"

The alchemists around him almost fainted when they heard this. This guy Huaiguzi is trying to trick everyone to death. Just one look at you, and you have failed in your alchemy? It is really unreasonable.

Ying Zheng looked at the young eunuch beside him. The young eunuch understood and hurried away.

A quarter of an hour later, the young eunuch came with a man.

The man bowed and said, "Wei Ting is here to meet the king."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly.

Cao Peng said straight to the point: "The official has already inspected the alchemy room. I saw that the alchemy furnace was broken into pieces, and there were many cracks in the wall. Judging from the fractures, it was indeed not man-made. It seemed that there was a current in the alchemy furnace.

The Qi suddenly expanded and could not be vented, so it exploded. As for whether this Qi is the so-called immortal Qi, I don't know."

When Lu Lie heard this, his heart became cold. Could it be that Huai Guzi really made the elixir? Impossible, this is impossible.

His eyes were red, and he stared at Huaiguzi and said: "The elixir is a thing of the immortal family, why do you know how to refine it? You are obviously lying."

Li Shui shrugged nonchalantly: "A few months ago, I met an immortal in my dream. The immortal taught me the magic of immortality and ordered me to come to Xianyang to assist the king."

Lu Lie was going crazy. This lie was simply an insult to people's intelligence. He, Lu Lie, had been searching for immortals for ten years but had never dreamed about them. Why did this guy Huai Guzi dream about them?

Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui coldly for a while and said calmly: "The explosion of the alchemy furnace may be caused by the elixir, or it may not be. How can you prove it yourself?"

At this moment, Li Shui suddenly realized that Ying Zheng was not as stupid as he thought. The lie he had made up might not be able to deceive him.

That's right, since he is the emperor for eternity, how could he be so stupid and be fooled by the alchemists?

Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han all just wanted to live forever so much that they would rather believe in its existence than its non-existence, and gave support to the alchemists with a ten thousandth of hope.

Once the emperor's patience ran out, they would kill these liars. But their desire for immortality made them support another group of liars.

Li Shui's mind was clear at this time. He knew that he had to find a way to prove to Ying Zheng that he really had immortal skills. Otherwise, even if he didn't kill him, he would have to lock himself up until he could refine the elixir.

Ying Zheng walked slowly to Li Shui and said with a cold face: "I am asking you, how can you prove it yourself? Do you want me to wait ten years for you to refine the elixir?"

Li Shui suddenly remembered something, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Your Majesty, ulcers are a terminal disease. If I can cure the ulcers on the young master's back, does this prove that he has magical powers?"

Ying Zheng suddenly changed his color and looked at Li Shui with hope: "Is this true? If you can cure the gangrene disease, I will be rewarded."

Before Li Shui could answer, Ying Zheng's face darkened again and he said, "If you dare to deceive me, you will be cut in half."

Li Shui shuddered, but the cooked duck's mouth was tough, so he had to hold it straight at this time.

He glanced at Lu Lie, raised his hands to Ying Zheng and said, "If I cure the young master, what will Lu Lie do?"

Ying Zheng said: "The person who falsely accuses you will sit down. If you are innocent, Lu Lie will be cut in half."

Lu Lie suddenly felt dizzy.
