Chapter 652 Wu Lao Er
Under the gaze of the onlookers all over the mountains, Wu Zhongyuan and his group flew back north with the Hunyuan Ding. No one intercepted or snatched them.
This was also expected by Wu Zhongyuan. If anyone dared to rob, he would have taken action in an hour before and would not have waited until now.
It was not until he left the Minshan area that Wan Shanhong breathed a sigh of relief, "There are many experts among these people. Are you afraid that you will be too full of words and cause their dissatisfaction and robbery?"
"Not afraid, although they have many people, they are a mob. People are uneven and not afraid of it." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "Whether people are able to transform into aliens, they all have one common characteristic, that is, they are afraid that they will work hard, but in the end they will be the ones who get the advantage. Driven by this mentality, no one will come out to be the first to be the one who stands out."
"It won't take long for everyone to know that you have obtained the Hunyuan Ding." Wan Shanhong said again.
"I can't hide this matter sooner or later, let alone I didn't want to block the news from the beginning," said Wu Zhongyuan. "Besides, what can I do if everyone knows it? The Hunyuan tripod weighs ten thousand pounds, and it's impossible to steal it. Gathering people to rob it? Who dares?"
Wan Shanhong tilted his head and looked at Wu Zhongyuan, "Ordinary people do not dare to get involved, but don't forget that people die for money and birds die for food. Hunyuan Ding can temper the ninth level of Tiange elixir. A pill is a Tiange master. Such a supernatural and mysterious way, it is hard to guarantee that no one will take risks."
Wu Zhongyuan said seriously, "Precisely because of the supernatural and mysterious Hunyuan Ding, I will save it at all costs. All those who want to get involved in the Hunyuan Ding are very clear about this. If they dare to rob, I will dare to kill it."
"It's good that you are mentally prepared." Wan Shanhong smiled.
"I'm mentally prepared." Wu Zhongyuan nodded.
"Have you ever thought about finding the Hunyuan Ding so smoothly?" Wan Shanhong asked.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "No, I thought it would take a lot of trouble, but what I fear most was also a lot of trouble, because I didn't have enough time. Although I got the Hunyuan Cauldron, it took time to figure out how to use it, and it also took time to find spiritual objects to temper elixirs. Moreover, I don't know how long it takes to temper elixirs, nor do I know that this thing can only be tempered one at a time or can be tempered multiple ones."
"The bronze medals of alchemy are all in the box. You can refer to the bronze medal and slowly figure it out," said Wan Shanhong. "If nothing happens, I will leave now and I won't walk with you."
"You are not in a hurry, let me go and have a bear," said Wu Zhongyuan. "The bear is lingering for several days, and then bring some rice, grain and food back."
Wan Shanhong shook her head and smiled, "No need, you have obtained the Hunyuan Ding, and you are already targeting the public. You may be injured by accident when you walk with you. I'd better stay away from you."
Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wan Shanhong was joking, but he didn't care. "It's better to go with me and study it with me."
"I have something more important than it needs to be promoted." Wan Shanhong stood up and whistled.
He heard the whistle, and the giant eagle flying in the distance was flying across the wings, coming to greet him.
Seeing that Wan Shanhong was really about to leave, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly took out the fruit from his waist bag and stuffed it to Wan Shanhong, "Save it for eating on the road."
Wan Shanhong did not refuse, and used her clothes to fill the fruits. She wanted to get some energy and transfer, but suddenly remembered something and quickly turned around, "By the way, there is a book called "A Collection of Hundred Grasses in the South Wilderness" in my former residence in Yanyun Mountain. It records the characteristics of various Ganoderma lucidum and other areas of growth in the South Wilderness. It is placed on the bookshelf in my attic. You go and pick it up, follow the map to find more plants and trees, and kill less animals."
Wu Zhongyuan nodded and agreed, thanking him repeatedly.
Wan Shanhong jumped up, landed on the back of the giant eagle, and sat sideways.
"Be careful on the road, I will go see you when I have time." Wu Zhongyuan said loudly.
"Forget it, you'd better not mess with my mind," Wan Shanhong opened her waist bag, found a wooden comb from it and poured it into her back and threw it over, "It's not that it's urgent, try not to call me south."
Wu Zhongyuan took it with him, changed into a copper-cast coin and threw it over, "You can go into seclusion with peace of mind, and call me to go if you have something to do."
Wan Shanhong raised her hand to take it, waved at Wu Zhongyuan, and then drove the giant eagle to fly first.
Although Qiongqi was huge, he still struggled to load tens of thousands of pounds and did not fly fast. He left the second update and rushed back to Youxiong until dawn.
Since some armadillos returned first, they had brought the news back. The young and Xiong people have been waiting nervously since last night. Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan successfully brought back the Hunyuan Ding, everyone, including the old blind man, was overjoyed and went into the palace to congratulate Wu Zhongyuan, and at the same time, they also observed the Hunyuan Ding up close.
Wu Zhongyuan did not place the Hunyuan tripod in a secret place, but placed it openly in the square in front of the Zhongtian Hall. He planned to place the Hunyuan tripod here and never move it elsewhere.
Dozens of wizards and warriors, including officials of the six ministries, surrounded the Hunyuan Ding and looked at each other happily, and Wang Xinran and others were among them. He had issued an order to send Wang Xinran to the Ministry of Works, Wu Di to the Ministry of Revenue, and Jiang Nan to the Ministry of War. Although the three of them lived in the harem, they went to the General Administration and the Directorate during the day.
The old blind man told everyone about the mysterious and wonderful things of the Hunyuan tripod, while Wu Di and others asked Wu Zhongyuan's detailed process of obtaining the Hunyuan tripod.
Lao Er was also among the crowd, but no one paid attention to it. Although it could transform into a human form, it was not a human after all. In addition, it was a dwarf and did the rough work of digging holes. A high-level wizard and warrior could not afford it, and no one talked to it.
Lao Er was familiar with the old blind man, so he leaned against the old blind man with a shy face, but the old blind man couldn't see it. At this time, he was surrounded by people and asked questions, but he didn't notice it.
Seeing Lao Er being embarrassed, Wu Zhongyuan paused to speak to Wu Di and others, opened his waist bag, took out the last blue fifth-level lotus seed from it and pinched it on his fingertips, and said in a deep voice, "Old Er listened to the order."
After hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, everyone immediately stopped talking, lined up and waited for Wu Zhongyuan to speak.
Lao Er looked at Wu Zhongyuan with a blank look on his face. He realized it before Wu Di turned his eyes at it, and hurriedly knelt down, "The last one is here."
Wu Zhongyuan said seriously, "Although you are an alien and lack spiritual enlightenment, the key is that you are pure by nature and loyal to the savior. When preparing for the war, you will work hard and lead the Heiji Mountain people to dig 85 large holes and 270 small holes. This time, you will make hard work again during the trip to the Southern Desert. You will be rewarded with merits and rewarded with merits. You will be given the royal family's original surname and rewarded with the fifth-level lotus seeds. You will be directly promoted to Taixuan."
As soon as Wu Zhongyuan said this, everyone was stunned, including Lao Er himself. No one expected that Wu Zhongyuan would suddenly give Lao Er such a heavy reward. In the eyes of everyone, it was a coolie who dug a hole and a clown who climbed the dragon and attached to the phoenix. No one had carefully calculated how many holes it had dug and how much force it had put out.
Wu Di is familiar with Lao Er. Seeing Lao Er in a daze, he reminded him, "I'm still standing still, but I haven't received the order to thank me."
After Wu Di reminded him, Lao Er reacted and hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.
Wu Zhongyuan moved forward and handed it the blue lotus seed. This was the last blue lotus seed, and the other one was given to him by Jiang Nan.
Lao Er took the lotus seed in his hand, and tears filled his eyes. He could still try to restrain himself at first, but in the end he couldn't help but cry loudly in front of everyone. He was a tragic guy who was stealing and scattered. If he hadn't followed Wu Zhongyuan, he would never have been able to make a comeback in his life. Although it was exciting to cry, it was still more moved. Not only was it Wu Zhongyuan's generous gifts and rewards, but Wu Zhongyuan also knew clearly how many caves it had dug. It thought Wu Zhongyuan would not pay attention to these things every day, but never thought Wu Zhongyuan would remember it clearly.
Not only that, it was previously Crimson Red and Xuan's cultivation level. Not long ago, it had just advanced to the Danlan Cave Xuan. Wu Zhongyuan gave him a fifth-level lotus seed, which shows that Wu Zhongyuan has been paying attention to it and has not ignored Dan's forget it.
Seeing that Lao Er received a generous reward, everyone knew that it would definitely be highly valued in the future, and they would never underestimate it again, so they came to congratulate it one after another.
The more everyone congratulated, the more Lao Er cried, and he sniffled and cried, and he lost all his moral character.
Fearing that it would continue to lose its composure, Wu Zhongyuan had to say anything to stop it, "Wu Lao Er, don't lose his morality."
Lao Er didn't know that when Wu Zhongyuan called its name, he was cerebral thrombosis. He heard that his bad name had more royal surnames before, and he became more moved. He nodded repeatedly and held it in his mind and stopped crying.
Wu Zhongyuan was afraid that the generous rewards of Lao Er would arouse jealousy and dissatisfaction among the people, so he pointed to the Hunyuan tripod and said seriously, "This Hunyuan tripod is a magical object used by Fuxi back then. It is a magical object that can melt the ninth level of the Heavenly Grade. With this magical artifact, he is expected to be promoted higher than the level. Before the five seals disappear, I will reward me according to my merits and reward them separately."
After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, everyone agreed in unison.
Wu Zhongyuan turned to look for Li Wanzi, but found that Li Wanzi was not among the crowd. Then he remembered that he had sent Li Wanzi to inspect the Sifang Camp before.
When Li Wanzi was not here, Wu Zhongyuan looked at Li Fei, an assistant to the Ministry of Personnel, and said, "Li Fei, the Ministry of Personnel should carefully verify and record it thoroughly, thinking that the evidence for rewarding merits and rewards will be given in the future."
Li Fei was serious when he heard this. The six ministries were equivalent to the branches of Huangdi's power. Whether the power was large or small depends entirely on whether Huangdi himself gave up power. Wu Zhongyuan's words directly raised the status of the Ministry of Personnel to the top of the Six ministries, just like the Organization Department in later generations, which was the official who was in charge of the officials.
Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at Li Zhu, an assistant to the Ministry of Works, and said, "From here to build a Dan Palace and store the Hunyuan tripod. He then sent craftsmen to Minshan, transported the copper and iron there back, built bricks and stones on the spot, built a temple to comfort the emperor and sacrifice to heaven and earth."
Li Zhu raised his hand and should be.
Wu Zhongyuan looked at Wang Xinran again, "Before the completion of Dan Palace, guards are strengthened, and idle people are strictly prohibited from approaching."
"Yes." Wang Xinran nodded.
It was already past the morning court time. Wu Zhongyuan was a little tired and had no intention of handling government affairs. He handed the box containing the bronze alchemy medals to the old blind man, ordered him to study with the officials of the six ministries, and then went to the east courtyard of the harem.
Wu Qing was a very peaceful person and didn't care about the government. Wu Zhongyuan didn't say anything, she didn't ask. Wu Zhongyuan said that, and she listened.
After breakfast, he was bed resting. At noon, he was called by Wu Qing.
Wu Zhongyuan knew that if there was no important thing, Wu Qing would not wake him up. After turning over and sitting up, he asked anxiously, "What's the matter?"
