Zhou Xiang refused to accept the challenge, and Chen Shen was in a dilemma. He wanted to force Zhou Xiang to agree! But he didn't want to appear in front of Zhou Xiang. This was his intuition. He always felt that if he appeared in front of Zhou Xiang, something bad would happen.
Bai Yong became Chen Shen's lobbyist again. Facing the bamboo pole with a crazy look in his eyes, Zhou Xiang wanted to beat him up. He asked coldly, "Bai Yong, are you still sane?"
"Zhou Xiang," Bai Yong restrained the look that had recently provoked his opponent, "I'd like to ask if there are any other ingredients needed to refine the blood pill?"
"How many people have you killed?" Zhou Xiang thought it would be better to talk to this madman about the seriousness of the matter.
"Two," Bai Yong stretched out two bony fingers, "neither of them was refined. They exploded."
It seems that the four explosions were two self-explosions and two furnace explosions. "Do you know why this building didn't collapse?"
"I know," Bai Yong nodded. "When Chen Shen built this structure, he made a dozen or so rooms similar to the alchemy furnace. The explosion of an alchemy furnace is like exploding a mountain. You should have felt the vibration, right? This building is probably very deep underground. People outside would only think it was a minor earthquake."
"Why don't you run away?" This is what Zhou Xiang wanted to know the most. Since this man was free and was chosen by Chen Shen to cooperate, his fighting power should be quite good among the captives.
Bai Yong spread his hands and said, "I can't escape. When I was first kidnapped, he let me go and let me escape on my own. I can't escape because the door requires his iris scan and the elevator requires his fingerprint..."
"Wait," Zhou wanted to interrupt Bai Yong, "Does he go out and get the meals himself every day?"
"Clone."
"Could it be that the clone's irises and fingerprints are the same as his?" Zhou Xiang asked.
"No, I heard there's a powerful clone who was given this authority."
"You told me this, aren't you afraid that Chen Shen will know?" Zhou Xiang turned and looked into the room.
"Don't be afraid," Bai Yong grinned. "Last time and this time, he turned off the surveillance in this room. Besides, the questions you asked are known to everyone who has been here for a long time."
Zhou wanted to look at the roof again. Could that cunning coward really turn off the surveillance in this room? Why didn't she believe it?
Turning to look at Bai Yong, whose face was filled with anticipation, Zhou Xiang sighed, "Bai Yong, did he promise to give you the Blood Pill?"
Bai Yong nodded vigorously. There was no need for him to deny it. Hadn't Zhou Xiang already guessed it the last time they met?
After getting the definitive answer, Zhou Xiang felt unhappy. "Are all the people he challenged to a fight still alive? Did he kill two people this time because of the alchemy?"
"Yes." Bai Yong admitted, because Chen Shen took him to see those people.
Ling Ran shook the old woman's hand. "I don't blame you. Didn't Bai Yong say there are ten rooms here that are similar to alchemy furnaces? Those who were abducted have no chance of survival."
Bai Yong looked at the two of them in surprise. Didn't Chen Shen say Zhou Xiang was cruel and ruthless? Why was her husband still comforting her like this?
Zhou Xiang took a deep breath, "Bai Yong, when refining blood pills, the right time, place, and people are necessary conditions, and the alchemy furnace is also a necessary condition. The blood pill destroyed the alchemy furnace I got. Now, I can't refine pills. I have to use an ordinary pot to refine the liquid medicine.
The most important thing is that taking the Blood Pill requires combining it with many other medicinal herbs, otherwise you'll definitely go insane. Did you know this? Chen Shen didn't tell you, did he? Even if he knew, he wouldn't tell you. He wants to use you to experiment with the effects of the Blood Pill. If you go insane, he won't need anyone else to help him. He can refine you all by himself, and you'll become the material for his more advanced Blood Pill.
Have you ever considered that if refining the Blood Pill were so easy, why would cultivators still work so hard? Cultivation doesn't achieve success overnight. Individual examples aren't the direction you're pursuing. If you refine every cultivator in the world and still haven't succeeded, would you still stop?
Just like a gambler, the more he loses, the more jealous he becomes, always thinking that he can make up for his losses in the next round.
Will the resentment in your heart become your inner demon? You have been abducted for quite some time, right? Why can you still trust Chen Shen again?
After saying that, Zhou Xiang turned around and went back into the room. Ling Ran pushed Bai Yong and the door closed with a bang.
Looking at the door, Bai Yong thought about what Zhou Xiang had just said, but if he didn't cooperate with Chen Shen, what other options would he have? Taking the blood pill would increase his power dramatically, and he still had the possibility and hope of getting out.
Chen Shen waited for Bai Yong to return with hope. Bai Yong shook his head. "Zhou Xiang said that her success in refining was just a fluke, and she also destroyed the alchemy furnace she obtained. She implied that the destroyed furnace was quite advanced. Why don't you go find the furnace and come back first?"
Chen Shen stared at Bai Yong for a long time before saying, "You know that alchemy furnaces no longer exist. The ones on the market are all made with modern technology."
"Suit yourself then! I'm going back to rest first."
After staring at Bai Yong's departing back for a long time, Chen Shen suddenly stood up. He should continue to think about how to open Zhou Xiang and the other person's rings. Maybe there is an alchemy furnace inside. Zhou Xiang's alchemy furnace must have been obtained together with the ring. Maybe there will be better things inside.
The building fell silent again for a moment.
In the town of Wei, Professor Chu, who still had no news of Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran, looked much more haggard. Xiao Qian brought the food to the table, "Professor Chu, it's time to eat."
"Hmm!" Professor Chu put down the research materials in his hand, washed his hands, and sat down at the table. "How's the Zhou family doing?"
Xiao Qian naturally knew what Professor Chu was asking. "Xiao Chunmei took the child to Beijing, but Aunt Jiang is still the same as always, not paying any attention to anything."
"Ah~" Professor Chu sighed, suddenly losing his appetite. "Xiao Jiang wasn't like this to Yuanyuan and Tongtong, so why is he like this to Hanhan?"
Xiao Qian stammered, "Maybe, maybe, because Hanhan is my granddaughter?"
Professor Chu was stunned by this. Could it be that Yuanyuan and Tongtong were someone else's granddaughters? What was the difference between a granddaughter-in-law and a granddaughter?
Professor Chu had no children in his life, so Xiao Qian certainly understood Professor Chu's doubts, but he could not explain Aunt Jiang's inherent preference for boys over girls.
Even though Miss Zhou was very capable, he could see that in Aunt Jiang's heart, Miss Zhou's status was not as high as Zhou Niao and Zhou Hua, not to mention that Yuanyuan and Tongtong were other people's granddaughters. Aunt Jiang's doting was just to protect her daughter's face, not to mention that Yuanyuan and Tongtong both had brothers above them.
In the capital, Jiang Xing'an looked at the investigation report and felt extremely regretful. If he had known that Zhou Xiang was planning to rescue his son who had been missing for 40 years, he would definitely not agree.
After 40 years in someone else's hands, even if someone else trained him, how much could he become? Compared to Zhou Xiang, it was worthless.
When Ding Fengqin heard that Zhou Xiang was missing, she was extremely excited and wanted to buy some firecrackers to celebrate.
Faced with another plea for help, the old leader shook his head and refused. Zhou Xiang had disappeared, so where would he get the liquid medicine? In the past two years, several old colleagues had passed away, and he was heartbroken, but birth, aging, sickness and death were irreversible.
Moreover, Zhou Xiang's medicine only prolongs life and restores internal energy and vitality once and for all. Otherwise, wouldn't the world be in chaos? Otherwise, wouldn't Zhou Xiang be imprisoned?
