Mortal Immortal Gourd

Since Sima Yi stole Tian Zhixuan's Nascent Soul last time, he has been continuing to track down the whereabouts of this Nascent Soul.

For masters in the Nascent Soul stage, as long as the Nascent Soul can find a good physical body, it can take over another body and be reborn.

However, the Yuanying’s ability to escape is too strong. It can disappear right before people’s eyes with just one or two teleportations, making it very difficult to find.

He has been tracking down Tian Zhixuan but has not been able to find any results, but there is always light in the west.

Clues were soon found regarding the large amount of supplies missing from the national treasury.

And this time, he took the initiative to jump in front of Sima Yi and show him the clue.

Someone anonymously reported to Sima Yi and provided more than a dozen effective investigation clues.

He followed these clues and soon found out the mastermind behind the move of the national treasury.

Sima Yi was a little confused when he saw the long list he had found.

Is this the truth, or is it someone doing it on purpose just to make him see this side of him?

This time, he was not so confident about the results of his investigation, so he simply left it to the emperor to decide and listened to the opinion of Emperor Longxing Sheng.

Sima Yi once again walked into the palace and asked to see Emperor Longxing Sheng.

"Your Majesty, some time ago, someone anonymously provided me with clues, and then I followed the clues and found these."

Sima Yi said this as he handed over all the clues and evidence he had tracked down, as well as the final results, to Emperor Longxing for review.

"Oh? There are actually people who report anonymously!"

The emperor took the large amount of investigation results with a little surprise.

In the past, officials protected each other, everyone earned and shared the money, everyone deceived their superiors and subordinates, and the unity was so strong that no one could get in the way.

Moreover, their interests are interconnected. If one move affects the whole body, how can they bear to sell out their allies?

Emperor Longxing Sheng smelled a strong scent of conspiracy.

When he took over the pile of investigation results, he only spent less than a quarter of an hour reading them before he discovered the problem.

After these clues were found out, the final target was all his princes.

Some were because of the prince's teacher, some were because of the prince's father-in-law, brother-in-law, or ministers they made friends with. In short, the final target was all the princes.

Including the Second Prince, the Fifth Prince, the Sixth Prince, the Eighth Prince, the Ninth Prince...

These people are the most outstanding among the 99 princes, and were once the popular candidates for the throne.

"Your Majesty, do you think this is a coincidence or a conspiracy?"

Sima Yi was also a little undecided about this.

"Otherwise, I'll continue investigating for a while. We can't wrongly accuse anyone, but we can't let any fish slip through the net either."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Longxing was silent for a long time, and finally waved his hand weakly.

“You are still young after all, and you cannot see through the mystery here.

Leave these investigation results here, and don't worry about this matter for now. I will handle it myself."

Sima Yi really didn't see through who was behind the plot, so he left the pile of materials and took his leave.

In the next few days, Emperor Longxing Sheng called his sons to the palace one by one.

As for what the father and son talked about and what they did, outsiders have no idea.

All we know is that after these princes entered the palace to see the emperor, they didn't say much when they came out. They locked themselves in their rooms and didn't go out for many days.

Sima Yi also miraculously discovered that the loophole in the national treasury had been plugged in this way.

Afterwards, he mobilized a large amount of supplies from Zhongzhou and sent them to the national treasury. Those supplies stayed in the treasury honestly and never ran away again.

Sima Yi didn't know how Emperor Longxing did it, but as long as this loophole could be plugged and wealth could be accumulated slowly over dozens or hundreds of years, the Great Zhou would eventually become prosperous again.

After successfully dealing with the loophole in the national treasury, Sima Yi turned his attention to areas outside Zhongzhou.

His goal was to completely cure the Zhou Dynasty's problems so that everyone could have clothes to wear and food to eat.

He wants everyone to live with dignity in this world, rather than being treated like pigs, dogs, cows and horses.

Now, everyone in the court knows about his relationship with General Zhang Ergou, the General of Zhenbei.

The stronger Zhang Ergou's performance, the smoother his actions will be.

Before anyone wants to touch Sima Yi, they have to consider whether they can defeat Zhang Ergou.

It just so happened that Zhang Ergou had gained some fame in the past two or three years by fighting against the barbarians and the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

In the past, when people mentioned Zhang Ergou, they just meant he was a newcomer who lived in a remote corner and had better luck.

His rise to prominence was too short, his strength was not strong, his foundation was not solid, and his basis was also weak. He only relied on that woman to get to where he is today.

But the combat results in the past two or three years have shown that he has the ability to stand on his own.

Many tough battles cannot be won by just holding on to a woman's thigh.

In fact, Ergouzi feels that he has been quite low-key in the past two or three years. He has been developing quietly and has hidden his strength. He has not made much effort yet.

For example, he has now made more than 300 puppets using iron wood that is seven or eight hundred years old.

Each of these puppets looks golden, especially when placed in the sun, they shine with a metallic luster, which is very beautiful.

It looks very precious, and is no less precious than those foundation-building decorations in Prince Qi's Palace.

Moreover, each of his more than 300 puppets has a combat power of at least the Jindan stage.

The only drawback is that these puppets require spirit stones to drive.

If these 300-plus puppets were driven to fight at the same time, the spirit stones would be consumed faster than burning them.

It’s very easy to use and very powerful, but it’s a pain to use.

Although the spiritual energy of some spirit stones has been consumed, they can be put into the gourd to restore the spiritual energy.

But if the spiritual energy inside is completely consumed and turned into powder, it can no longer be restored.

With the power of this golden elixir puppet, it can often reduce low-grade spirit stones to powder in one attack.

At least 200 medium-grade spirit stones must be installed in each puppet to barely withstand the consumption.

A maximum of 500 medium-grade spirit stones can be filled into a puppet.

These puppets have not been used yet, and after only trying them out a few times, the consumption of spirit stones has made him heartbroken.

Er Gouzi was thinking about creating a magic weapon or magical instrument that could store spiritual energy better than spirit stones.

In this way, it can be repeatedly collected into the gourd to restore spiritual energy, and then installed in the puppet to provide spiritual energy consumption.

In fact, there is a simpler method that does not require him to rack his brains at all. He just needs to find high-quality spirit stones or top-quality spirit stones.

The spiritual energy contained in a medium-grade spirit stone is equal to that of 100 low-grade spirit stones.

But one high-quality spirit stone is equal to 1,000 medium-quality spirit stones.

And one top-grade spirit stone is equivalent to ten thousand high-grade spirit stones.

If he could find a top-grade spirit stone, he wouldn't have to worry about anything.

It is more than enough to install a high-quality spirit stone in a puppet. After the spiritual energy in the spirit stone is consumed, it can be put into the gourd to restore the spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, I don’t have this kind of goods.

He had emptied so many warehouses before, but had never encountered one, so he came up with the idea of ​​researching a magic weapon to store spiritual energy.

Er Gouzi practiced in seclusion for several days this time before going out to look for trouble.

He first went to the barbarians' territory as a gangster and started to act wildly.

Naturally, this made King Ritian furious again, and then he repeated his old trick and fled towards General Wang's military camp.

But this trick might have been used too many times. King Ritian chased until he could not find anyone near the military camp, so he stopped chasing.

Er Gouzi had to use the earth escape technique to hide underground. He hid for the whole day and didn't dare to show his head, while others went home to have dinner.

This made Ergouzi, who had been hiding for a whole day, physically and mentally exhausted, and filled with frustration all over.

How could he swallow this? The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

It seems that the barbarians don't like to fight with General Wang now, and there are signs that the relationship between the two sides is becoming increasingly relaxed.

If the relationship between the two sides were to improve, wouldn't Ergouzi be like a mistress who was trying to sow discord between them?

He transformed himself and returned to the barbarian army camp as Man Batian.

The original barbarian army of more than 10,000 had lost most of its troops after two or three years of fighting, several setbacks and casualties. Fortunately, the barbarians later provided him with some reinforcements.

To date, there are still around 10,000 people.

When Er Gouzi returned to the camp, the first thing he saw was King Hatetian who had been chopped into a bachelor.

This King Hateful, although he looks very thin and has little flesh on his body, he is full of hatred in his bones.

Only when he saw Man Batian, that twisted hatred would be restrained.

Because he always felt that Man Batian had been bullied and abused just like him, which made him feel a sense of sympathy.

"King Hatetian, how are you these days?"

"It's okay! I have good news for you. We are about to launch a general attack on the Great Zhou Dynasty."

King Hatetian seemed to be in a good mood today. When he saw Man Batian, he excitedly told him the good news.

Let the barbarians and the human army fight a big battle and then destroy each other together. This has always been their common wish.

"Where did the news come from? Is it accurate?"

Er Gouzi was shocked. He hoped that this state of confrontation would last longer.

He felt that his cultivation was about to break through to the late Golden Core stage. If he was given enough time, his strength would be greatly improved.

Unfortunately, after the fight started, he couldn't concentrate on his practice.

"Of course it's accurate. It's absolutely true."

"I have received an official notice from the Great Elder, asking us to prepare here and wait for the arrival of the Barbarians' follow-up army."

Hearing King Hatetian speak so confidently, it seems that the information is true.

"Who are the people coming? When will they arrive?"

"I heard that the accompanying army this time has more than 20,000 people."

"I heard that there are several other Nascent Soul masters, including the Sky-Breaking King, the Sky-Destroying King, and the Sky-Deceiving King..."

Hearing King Hatetian talking about so many masters, the second brother felt a headache again.

He had heard of the Great King Mie Tian, ​​who was also a master in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and was very difficult to deal with.

When these two teams join together in the future, their strength will be even stronger, and by then neither he nor General Wang will be able to stop them.

"Okay! Okay!"

"This time I must follow the army and flatten the entire Great Zhou Dynasty."

Man Batian waved his fist and spoke with high spirits.

At the same time, he was thinking about how to get rid of the barbarian group in front of him.

To reduce the pressure when facing the enemy in the future.

Especially that King Ritian, if we can kill him we will do it.

He was forced to hide in the mud underground for a whole day, and Ergouzi still feels resentful.

There are more than 10,000 barbarians in their team, including many Jindan and foundation building people, and their strength is not weak.

The three of them are still in the Nascent Soul stage: King Tyrant, King Hate Heaven, and King Sun Heaven.

There is no need to worry too much about Batian and Hentian, but King Ritian is very powerful and may be difficult to deal with.

But if we deal with King Ritian alone now, it will be even more difficult to deal with him if he joins forces with the barbarian army in the rear in the future.
