Chapter 156: Old Man from Two Hundred Years Ago

Zhao Mu carried Sima Tongsheng, who had only the skin left, back to Lingxu Immortal Mansion.

in the hall.

Black Dragon and Turtle Spirit flew in: "Chu Ying, what happened? Why did you leave so suddenly?"

"I met an old friend, but unfortunately, all he has left is his skin."

Zhao Mu put Sima Tongsheng on the ground, then took out the Heaven-Swallowing Jade Purifying Bottle and poured it out for the old man Liang Kun.

The bone-crushing soul-devouring array in the jade purifying bottle was extremely powerful. Just a few moments had passed, and Liang Kun's body had been severely corroded.

He fell to the ground, and the pain that penetrated into his bones made his whole body tremble.

"Sir, spare my life, please don't kill me!"

Liang Kun knelt down in fear and begged for mercy.

Zhao Mu pointed at Sima Tongsheng: "If you don't want to die, tell me, what is the relationship between this person and you?"

"He?" Liang Kun said carefully: "He is a human corpse puppet made by Pindao."

"Where did you find him?"

"That place is called... By the way, it was in the north of the Jin Dynasty. It seems that there was a country called Beimang Country hundreds of years ago."

Liang Kun explained: "After Pindao came to the Jin Dynasty half a year ago, he traveled around. Three months ago, he accidentally came to a place called the Totem Temple and found this man's body in it."

"Pindao checked at that time and found that this man had died long ago and his soul no longer existed, but his body was incorruptible and as strong as gold and iron."

"Such a corpse is perfect for refining a human corpse puppet, so Pindao took him out of the Totem Temple and spent some time refining it into a puppet."

Liang Kun looked at Zhao Mu in horror: "Sir, this man will not be with you... Please forgive me. The little old man really doesn't know that he is related to you. If he knew, he would never make him into a puppet. "

"At that time... the little old man really thought that he was an ownerless corpse. Please don't kill me."

Zhao Mu ignored him and walked straight to Sima Tongsheng.

Two hundred years later, the once living person has now become a corpse.

That hollow look in his eyes was really disappointing.

This is the price of immortality. Personnel changes and vicissitudes of life will be things that I will have to experience again and again in the endless years to come. It can never be avoided.

"What happened to your body, and why is the body immortal?"

Zhao Mu looked at Sima Tongsheng and murmured to himself.

Many people in the Jin Dynasty may have long forgotten that in the northern land of the Jin Dynasty, a country called Beimang Kingdom once existed hundreds of years ago.

The Beimang Kingdom was once extremely powerful, and even invaded the Jin Dynasty several times in history, burning, killing, and looting, which made the people of the Jin Dynasty extremely hateful.

Although Beimang Kingdom has a king, the king has no real power. The power of the entire country is in the hands of the Totem Temple.

The supreme leader of the totem temple is called the high priest.

Zhao Mu still remembered that the Totem Temple once mobilized the whole country to refine three large diamond pills, each of which could increase a person's life span by twenty years.

It is said that when the elixir was first created, the high priest of the Totem Temple took one.

Another one was later sent to the Jin Dynasty and presented to the Immortal Emperor at that time.

It was a pity that the Immortal Emperor was not blessed to receive it, and the King Kong Dan was stolen by someone sent by his prince. By chance, it fell into the hands of Zhao Mu.

Later, Zhao Mu also relied on the Great Diamond Pill to make his martial arts cultivation improve by leaps and bounds.

After that, the new Chu Emperor succeeded to the throne and vigorously developed the national power, making the Jin Dynasty more powerful day by day, and finally sent war heroes to destroy the Beimang Kingdom.

It's a pity that when the warriors destroyed the Totem Temple, they didn't seem to find the last Great Diamond Pill.

What Zhao Mu is now confused about is why Sima Tongsheng's body is in the Totem Temple?

After he and Mu Xinzhi left the capital, did they go to the Totem Temple?

What is there that attracts them?

"It seems that we have to go to the Totem Temple to know what happened back then?"

Zhao Mu thought to himself.

"Chu Ying, who is this person?" Black Jiao asked.

"There was an emperor in the past of the Jin Dynasty. I even gave him my cultivation experience back then."

"I didn't expect that two hundred years later, he would look like this."

Zhao Mu shook his head: "Get ready, come with me to the north of the Jin Dynasty tomorrow. I really want to know what happened to him?"

"good."

The black dragon and the spirit turtle nodded.

…

Chi Yunzi left the Imperial Master's Mansion and walked to the Jiaofang Department.

Along the way, many dignitaries passed by and saluted respectfully when they saw him.

After a long while, Chi Yunzi finally walked to the front door of the Jiaofang.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from behind. Chi Yunzi turned around and saw a group of people guarding a carriage, heading this way.

Those people acted very tyrannically, and all the people on the streets they passed were driven to both sides and were not allowed to get close to the carriage.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the temple gate. The Minister of Rites got out of the carriage with the help of two maids.

"Master Imperial Master, why are you here at the Jiaofang Department? Are you interested today?" The Minister of Rites looked ambiguous.

"It turns out it's Master Shangshu. Haha, I'm not in good health, so I don't dare to waste my energy. Today I'm here to visit the deacon of Ziwei Dao Sect."

Chi Yunzi looked strange, as if he saw something from the other person?

"What a coincidence? I am here to visit that gentleman."

"Really?"

Chi Yunzi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Sir, I'm afraid that steward will not see you."

"Why?"

The Minister of Rites was puzzled.

Chi Yunzi shook his head: "Sir, I heard that your nephew got a large piece of land last month?"

"Haha, there is no way, the younger generation in the family is more motivated, can't sit still, and always wants to make a career."

The Minister of Rites said proudly.

"Haha, it's better not to do this kind of business. I heard that a few days ago, many farmers went to the government to sue the nephew of the Minister of Rites, saying that he had seized the people's land and killed people?"

"Nonsense!"

The Minister of Rites looked unnatural: "They are just a group of unruly people. My nephew clearly paid for the land, but they slandered my nephew and seized their land. It's unreasonable. The national teacher must not believe such rumors."

"Haha, the minister is an honest official, so I naturally don't believe it."

Chi Yunzi's expression was calm.

This statement was ambiguous. Whether he didn't believe the rumors or didn't believe that the Minister of Rites was an honest official, only the devil knew!

The Minister of Rites looked gloomy.

This national teacher didn't get along with him in the court in the past, so it was normal for him to mock him.

But now in public, he felt a little embarrassed.

If it were someone else, he would have turned against him long ago.

Unfortunately, he couldn't afford to offend this imperial master, so he could only suppress his anger.

At this time, there were many officials coming in and out of the entrance of the Jiaofangsi, and they greeted the two respectfully when they saw them.

Chi Yunzi ignored them and bowed respectfully to the void: "Sir Steward, I, Chi Yunzi, pay my respects to you."

His voice spread like a wave, spreading to the entire Jiaofangsi.
