I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years
Chapter 172 Serious Injury
The twenty-fifth year of Zhenghe.
the beginning of the year.
It should have been a good start, but unexpectedly it caused a big incident.
Last year, the emperor ordered the opening of two shipyards, and the Ministry of Works immediately dispatched personnel to build treasure ships.
In just less than half a year, a shocking case was uncovered.
The Minister of Shipbuilding, who was in charge of supervision and manufacturing, was revealed to have been corrupt and accepted bribes, causing a sensation in the court.
It stands to reason that corruption is a common occurrence in all dynasties, but the reason why this shipyard case alarmed the court was that the amount involved was huge, a full 180 million taels of silver.
It has only been half a year since the shipyard opened, but such a major case has been exposed, and the amount of embezzlement is so huge.
It is said that the corrupt official's backyard was filled with silver, and even the tables, chairs, benches and even the bed were made of gold and silver.
When the emperor learned of this, he was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.
As soon as the imperial edict was issued, the Censorate and the Ministry of Justice sent out their capable subordinates, and after forty-five days, they finally got to the bottom of the matter.
Before and after this case, more than 300 officials were stripped of their official hats and sent to prison. Half of them were guilty of huge corruption and were waiting to be executed in the autumn.
The amount of embezzlement in this case was the first in the history of the Yuan Dynasty, and was later recorded in history books as the Jingtian Shipyard corruption case.
As luck would have it, the initial fuse of this incident was caused by Liu Wuyan and the third princess Tang Shuang who were traveling in the martial arts world.
After the matter was exposed, the two won a lot of good reputation among the people.
Yan Xiu sat under the Jianmu in the courtyard and smiled slightly after reading the letter.
"This world is quite interesting. It seems that Liu Wuyan has grown up."
Zhu Miao continued the conversation and said with a smile: "This is all thanks to Dao Zun's good teaching, which is why Liu Wuyan is where he is today."
Yan Xiu just smiled faintly in response to Zhu Miao's flattery.
He couldn't say that he had taught Liu Wuyan well, he just taught him a certain level of cultivation.
Just as the two were talking, a loud eagle cry suddenly came from the sky.
A black dot swooped down from the sky and finally landed on Zhu Miao's arm.
Zhu Miao took the secret letter from Fei Qin's feet and handed it to Yan Xiu.
After reading it, Yan Xiu suddenly frowned and a rare look of anger appeared on his face.
"Dao Zun, what happened?"
Zhu Miao had never seen Yan Xiu, who was usually calm and composed, so angry, so he hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"Liu Wuyan and the third princess were attacked by an unidentified warrior in Longzhou!"
This is what the secret letter reads.
Although the spy who followed them secretly to protect them tried to rescue them, they were no match for them and only risked their lives to stop them did the two men escape.
However, Liu Wuyan was seriously injured and fell into a coma while protecting Tang Shuang.
The third princess, who had just entered the world of martial arts, was at a loss what to do in this situation and had no idea what to do.
Finally, with the help of other martial arts sects, the message was delivered back to Zhenguan.
After reading the letter, Yan Xiu suddenly stood up and walked out of the courtyard gate.
"Dao Zun, are you going to do it yourself?"
Zhu Miao looked surprised.
Yan Xiu said without even turning his head: "My disciple is seriously injured. As a master, if I don't come forward in person, wouldn't it make me look incompetent?"
Yan Xiu's tone was so cold that even the temperature of the air around him seemed to drop by several degrees.
Zhu Miao couldn't help but shudder, thinking to himself at the same time.
It seems that Liu Wuyan is still very important in Yan Xiu's heart, otherwise how could he personally take action.
Thinking that the mysterious man who injured Liu Wuyan would suffer the wrath of Dao Zun, Zhu Miao couldn't help but mourn for those guys in his heart.
When the immortal gets angry, it would be considered a good fate for these mortals if they end up being torn to pieces.
Zhu Miao put away his thoughts and followed Yan Xiu closely.
It was just that Yan Xiu possessed the magical power of alluring golden light, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving Zhu Miao standing there in a daze.
"this..."
He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
An immortal is an immortal. It is no problem for him to cross thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, Zhu Miao knew where the incident happened, and if he tried his best to rush there, he should be able to watch the ending in time.
...
Longzhou, Jinyang City.
The headquarters of the famous Longyin Valley is located here.
The master of Longyin Valley has reached the Tianyuan realm in his cultivation and is considered a leader in the martial arts world.
At this moment in the valley, all the elders of the sects gathered in a courtyard, talking in low voices.
"Divine Doctor, how is Mr. Liu's injury?"
As soon as an elderly doctor carrying a medicine box opened the door, a group of people surrounded him.
"I am powerless to treat Young Master Liu's injury, so I can only use the medicinal power of the hundred-year-old spiritual material to keep him alive. Please ask for other help."
The doctor bowed, politely declined everyone's invitation, and left quickly.
After these words were spoken, many people looked unhappy.
Although Dao Zun's disciples encountered an ambush by a mysterious warrior, if they died in their Longyin Valley, wouldn't it be hard to explain?
Someone immediately said, "Valley Master, I heard that there is a famous doctor named Yao in Yan Gui City, 800 miles away. It is said that he has great medical skills. Why don't we invite him over?"
The Valley Master sighed and said, "The journey of eight hundred miles is too far. I'm afraid that by the time we invite the doctor over, Master Liu will already be a corpse!"
Although eight hundred miles is not a long distance for warriors, for a doctor, it would probably take several days to walk these eight hundred miles.
But now Liu Wuyan's life is in danger and time waits for no one.
"Forget it! Someone, go to the treasury and get the Purple Yang Pill!"
After comparing the options in his mind, the Valley Master made this decision.
This Ziyang Pill is one of the few panaceas in Longyin Valley. Even a Tianyuan realm warrior on the verge of death can regain his life by taking one pill. It is a rare panacea.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone spoke out against it.
"Valley Master, think twice. There are only two Purple Sun Pills left. It would be reckless to use up one!"
Without waiting for others to continue speaking, the Valley Master made the decision against all objections.
If the Zi Yang Pill could really save Liu Wuyan, then Long Yin Valley would have a great opportunity to prosper.
The price of a Purple Yang Pill is the favor of Dao Zun's disciple. This deal is worth it no matter how you look at it!
Not long after, a disciple brought some pills.
The Valley Master held the box containing the Purple Yang Pill and carefully pushed open the door.
Liu Wuyan was lying on the bed unconscious, his face pale and bloodless.
The third princess Tang Shuang, who was standing beside him, had red eyes, and it was obvious that she had been waiting by his side for many days and nights.
"Third Princess, you should go and rest for a while. If you keep going like this, your body will collapse."
Tang Shuangtou didn't say anything or reply, just stared at Liu Wuyan blankly.
The Valley Master hurried over, opened the wooden box in his hand, and took out the Zi Yang Pill.
"Third Princess, this is the Purple Sun Pill from my Dragon Song Valley. Even if you only have one breath left, as long as you take this pill, you will recover from your injuries."
Tang Shuang's face lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Quick, give it to him. I will agree to any conditions you ask for."
