Chapter 62 A Good Thing
Hearing Ye Yu's words, the middle-aged man's heart suddenly warmed up. He didn't care how he had just mocked Qi Xianyu and the Yinxian Peak lineage. He now just wanted to confirm whether the rumors about Yinxian Peak were lies or just hype.
If he had not seen Ye Yu coming on a white crane, he would not have had this idea. Even as soon as Ye Yu came out, he might have directly scolded Ye Yu for playing tricks and deliberately being mysterious in order to trample on Yinxian Peak and Qi Xianyu's lineage.
But now, he really wanted to know whether Hidden Immortal Peak really had any immortal magic. He felt mixed emotions and all kinds of thoughts came to his mind.
"Of course!"
Ye Yu had a smile on his face, and then he waved his sleeves in the direction of the Taoist Qian Gong.
"Whoo~"
In an instant, a strong wind blew up, howling, making the clothes of the people around rustle, and the middle-aged alchemist who was under Ye Yu's spell suddenly flew into the air.
"what!"
The middle-aged alchemist was so frightened that he waved his limbs around and screamed. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and swept him away. In just a few breaths, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Gulu! Taoist Qian Gong was blown away!"
"If this falls from the sky, won't it be smashed into a meat pie?"
“How tragic!”
Many alchemists present felt their whole bodies tremble and their throats became dry. Some of them couldn't help swallowing and spoke in a swollen voice, while others thought of the scene of falling from the sky and suddenly felt that the hairs on their bodies stood up.
Ye Yu can control the wind to fly, so he can naturally blow others away. However, the Taoist priest just now would not fall to his death, but at least he was scared to death, which will definitely become the most unforgettable memory of his life.
"Now it's your turn, which spell would you like to see?"
Ye Yu then looked at the remaining two alchemists.
At this time, the Taoist priests Fei Chi and Wei Lin, who were standing in front of the table, were so frightened after seeing Ye Yu cast a spell to sweep Taoist priest Qian Gong away that their legs went weak and they almost couldn't stand.
Now that they heard that Ye Yu really wanted to settle the score with them, they were both frightened and their faces turned pale. They stammered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
"Let me help you two choose!"
Ye Yu immediately shot out a blazing bolt of lightning, which landed on the alchemist Wei Lin. The electric shock made his entire body seem like he was having a seizure. He twitched and convulsed, and fell to the ground, rolling his eyes on the spot.
Then he swung out a snake-shaped weapon from the Snake-Crane Fighting Technique, which trapped the Taoist priest named Fei Chi. He immediately felt suffocated and was covered by the huge black python, which frightened him to death.
"Then let's hold the conference as normal!"
After dealing with the three alchemists who came out to cause trouble, Ye Yu put his hands together, smiled kindly and gently, and spoke to everyone.
And just when Ye Yu was casting spells in Teng County.
At this time in Xianyang City, in Fusu's mansion, looking at the various news about Pei County over the past few months, rubbing his throbbing temples, the young master Jia in front of him had a worried look on his face.
"Mr. Meng Yi, Mr. Chun Yu, what do you think?"
Fusu pushed the document in front of him and asked the two people in front of him.
In Xianyang City, inside Fusu's mansion, the doors and windows are wide open, and one can see the beautiful scenery of the surrounding courtyards, flowers, trees, and beautifully trimmed green plants. Occasionally, servants and beautiful maids can be seen passing by in the distance. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful.
Fusu, wearing a loose light blue robe, sat in front of the desk. He pushed the news and information about Pei County in the past few months in front of the two people opposite him.
One of the two people opposite was Meng Yi, the younger brother of Meng Tian, who was a senior minister and had great trust from the First Emperor. The other was Chun Yuyue, a doctor and a servant, who had suggested to the First Emperor that his sons and meritorious officials be enfeoffed as his assistants, but the suggestion was not accepted by the First Emperor.
During this period, the First Emperor had been staying in Pei County for nearly half a year, and a lot of things happened during that time.
For example, a large number of alchemists including Hou Sheng and Han Zhong were executed, their entire clans were implicated, their property was confiscated and they were exiled. Xu Fu, Lu Sheng and others were also imprisoned and their property was confiscated.
In Fusu's view, he thought that his father had come to his senses and no longer believed in the illusory immortality.
But later, everyone suddenly realized that it might not be that the First Emperor no longer believed in the alchemists, but that he just no longer believed in Xu Fu, Han Zhong and others.
Because in Pei County of Si Shui County, there was a famous alchemist who was rumored to have achieved immortality and his temple was located on Yinxian Mountain in Pei County.
And Ying Zheng's royal carriage has stayed there for a long time. It seems that he has been bewitched by the new alchemist again.
And during this period, several major events occurred.
First, Princess Yangzi, Emperor Yin Man and others were called to Pei County by their father, and then it was the eighteenth brother Hu Hai.
I didn't hear anything about the imperial sisters, but Hu Hai 207 had been demoted to a commoner and exiled to the three Lingnan counties. Zhao Gao also let the rebels go and was sentenced to death. Although he escaped by accident, it also meant that he could not appear in the court again, which was a good thing.
What Fusu was worried about was that the news he got from Pei County exaggerated the rumors about this alchemist, as if he had really become a god. It felt even more fantastic than the previous search for the elixir of immortality by Xu Fu and others.
"For now, the appearance of the Taoist priest from Hidden Immortal Peak does not seem to have caused any loss of money or labor. Everything seems to be changing for the better. Young Master, you don't have to worry too much for now."
Chunyu Yue went to Fusu to comfort him.
"Although the rumors are exaggerated, perhaps the alchemist really has some skills. I heard that your Majesty's health has improved a lot and he no longer takes those golden pills. This is also a good thing!"
Meng Yi also spoke to Fusu.
However, having seen so many alchemists trying to confuse the First Emperor, Fusu was indeed somewhat wary of this profession.
After hearing the two people's advice, Fusu's mood finally eased a lot.
"But the emperor has been away from the court for too long. I have already submitted an imperial edict to ask the emperor to return to Xianyang. If he does not return, I will go to Sishui County to meet the so-called immortals."
Fusu then told the two of them about his plan.
In the past, the First Emperor's travels lasted for a few months at the shortest and almost a year at the longest. But this time, he stayed in Pei County for almost half a year. Adding the time he had spent on tours in other places before, he had been away for more than a year.
Although he was accompanied by a large number of officials and was able to handle government affairs in a timely manner, there were still many things waiting for him to deal with in Xianyang City.
Moreover, as an emperor, how can he stay outside all the time and not be in charge of the center?
"Sir, there is new news from Pei County!"
At this moment, a servant suddenly came in from outside carrying a letter.
Fusu took out the letter and read the first half of the message. He was so shocked that he jumped up from his seat instantly.
It was clearly saying that the First Emperor was ambushed and killed by thousands of armored soldiers from the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
Seeing Fusu's face change, Meng Yi and Chunyu Yue were both shocked. They had never seen Prince Fusu lose his composure like this.
But they soon saw that Fusu, who was originally full of shock and anger, began to look strange. After finally reading the letter, he didn't know how to judge it and immediately handed it to Meng Yi and Chunyu Yue.
The two were shocked and angry at first, and then they repeatedly read the contents of the letter in disbelief.
