Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Seeing Li Zhi's distraught look, Master Liu didn't say anything more.

Some things can only be figured out by yourself. Others can only guide you but cannot force you out.

Moreover, Master Liu could only say so much because he had a sense of appreciation for his talent. If it were anyone else, he would have simply beaten, scolded and driven him away, and would not have said so much.

"Go back and prepare. I will start refining the elixir in three days." Master Liu took out a recipe from his arms and handed it to Li Zhi.

But Li Zhi's mind was in a mess at this time, and he did not take the recipe.

Immortal Master Liu frowned slightly and shouted, "If you really have a compassionate heart that cares about the people, then the most important thing you should do is to try your best to do what you should do! If the pill is successful this time, then the others will no longer need to be used as pill ingredients, and they can all save their lives and gain freedom."

Li Zhi's body trembled when he heard this, and finally came to his senses. He reached out to take the recipe and bowed to Master Liu.

He was not the kind of person who was ungrateful. He knew that what Master Liu said to him was to enlighten him and he didn't want him to go crazy.

Seeing this, Master Liu's originally sinister face also revealed a smile, and said, "Go quickly."

Li Zhi nodded, clenched the prescription in his hand, and turned and left without hesitation.

I walked to the door of the alchemy room with a heavy heart.

Faced with the closed door in front of him, Li Zhi was a little afraid to push it open, or rather, he didn't have the heart to push it open.

Because he knew that once this door was opened, some of the men inside who were used as materials for the elixir would be sacrificed.

He took a deep breath and then let it out slowly.

Li Zhiqiang managed to pull himself together. Things had come to this point, just as Immortal Master Liu had said, all he needed to do was to ensure that Immortal Master Liu's preparations for alchemy in three days would go smoothly, so that the remaining people could be rescued.

Sacrifice a few people! Save the majority!

This is the right way!

"Click--Squeak--" Li Zhi stretched out his hand and slowly pushed open the door.

As Li Zhi opened the door, the sunlight spread evenly throughout the room.

All the people who were imprisoned there as materials for making elixirs stopped whatever they were doing and looked at Li Zhi at the same time.

Li Zhi walked in and looked at the people in the room with different expressions. He slowly said, "Master Liu will start refining the elixir in three days. Now I have to select the elixir materials first..."

Before Li Zhi finished speaking, he was interrupted by a rough voice.

"Master Liu needs six people as materials for each elixir he makes. Which six people do you want to choose to die this time?"

Li Zhi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly man with a face full of flesh standing there. Although his right sleeve was empty, it was obvious that he was missing a hand, but he looked ferocious and intimidating. Except for the four or five people gathered behind him, the others seemed to be afraid of him and did not dare to get too close to him.

"Who are you?" Li Zhi asked.

Although he had stayed here for the past two days, he was absent-minded. In addition, he was busy memorizing the book of rare treasures, so he didn't pay attention to other people at all. Others also seemed to be hesitant about something and didn't talk to Li Zhi.

Therefore, even though Li Zhi stayed here for two days, he didn't know anyone here.

"I'm Zhang San from Pingtian Village. Now I'm asking you, which six people do you plan to choose this time? Me? Or him, him, and him?" Zhang San pointed at himself, and then pointed at the few younger brothers behind him.

The person who was pointed at by Zhang San was not afraid at all. Instead, he laughed out loud, with no concealment of sarcasm in his eyes.

Zhang San's words were sarcasm, and his intention of threatening or intimidating was self-evident.

The news Li Zhi had heard from Master Liu had already made him feel like a huge rock was pressing on his chest, and now this person came to threaten and intimidate him.

This made Li Zhi feel agitated. He said, "Oh? You are so wise and willing to help. I will thank you on behalf of the others!"

Zhang San didn't expect Li Zhi to be so tactless and dare to answer like that in this situation, and he became furious instantly.

"Fuck you, do you really think you can use chicken feathers as a token of authority?" Zhang San cursed and walked towards Li Zhi, moving his only remaining hand as he walked.

The few younger brothers behind him also followed Zhang San tacitly, each of them looking arrogant. It seemed that this was not the first time they had done such a thing.

Seeing this, Li Zhi knew what they were planning. Of course, he was a brave man and would not suffer a loss, so he tried to slip away.

But when I turned around, I found that the door that was originally open had been closed by someone, and there were a few people blocking the door with looks like they were watching a show.

Although these people were not in the same group as Zhang San, it was obvious that they did not want Li Zhi to leave like this.

Li Zhi was so angry that he laughed. It was ridiculous that he was worried about these people just now!

"Fuck your saintly heart!"

Li Zhi cursed inwardly, turned around, and rushed towards a few people watching the show on the other side.

Those people who were still watching the show obviously didn't expect that Li Zhi didn't rush out the door or towards Zhang San, but actually rushed towards them.

For a moment, he didn't react and was knocked to the ground by Li Zhi.

Seeing this, Zhang San and others hurriedly chased after Li Zhi.

After knocking down the person in front of him, Li Zhi did not stop but ran to the place where the herbs were placed. This was the elixir room, which contained more than just elixir materials for living people.

He remembered that there was a pair of scissors in the cupboard where the herbs were kept. If he could get it, he would have more confidence when facing these people.

Otherwise, even though these people are missing limbs, Li Zhi dares to guarantee that he can't hold on for more than a few seconds with his bare hands.

Just when Li Zhi ran to the cupboard, Zhang San behind him had already caught up with him.

Zhang San stretched out his only remaining left hand, grabbed Li Zhi, grabbed Li Zhi's clothes, and then pulled him back suddenly.

Although Zhang San only had one hand, he was very strong and he pulled Li Zhi flying backwards with one hand.

There was a "bang" sound.

Li Zhi fell heavily to the ground.

Li Zhi, who was grimacing after being thrown down, looked up and saw that others including Zhang San had surrounded him.

Looking at everyone with a playful look on their faces, Li Zhi stood up with a smile.

He raised a pair of rusty scissors in his hand. He had finally got the scissors just before being caught by Zhang San.

Pointing at the people surrounding him, Li Zhi said, "Do you want to try to see whether your fists are harder or my scissors are sharper?"

Now those people lost their composure and took a few steps back, fearing that Li Zhi would be the first to stab them.

Just when Li Zhi thought he had intimidated these people, Zhang San stood up with a look of disdain on his face.

"Bah! Do you think you can scare me with a pair of broken scissors? I dared to use a knife to chop people when I was seven years old. Let alone this pair of broken scissors you have, even if you have a machete, I don't take it seriously!" Zhang San said as he walked towards Li Zhi.

It looked like he really didn't take Li Zhi seriously. Even though Li Zhi was holding a pair of scissors in his hand, Zhang San was not afraid.

Li Zhi's smile also faded. He could see that Zhang San was not pretending, but really did not take him seriously.

"Then you try it, either you beat me to death first, or I stab you to death first!" Li Zhi gritted his teeth and said sternly, holding the scissors in his hand even tighter.

Zhang San stepped forward and rushed towards Li Zhi, while Zhang San's younger brothers were not idle either. Almost at the same time, they pounced on Li Zhi from all sides.

Li Zhi knew that he could no longer retreat at this point. He had to seriously injure one person in order to effectively intimidate these people, otherwise others would not be afraid of him at all.

If these people think he is a soft persimmon, then not only will he not be able to help Master Liu select the ingredients for the elixir, but even his own personal safety will not be guaranteed.

So he stopped running, held the scissors flat in front of his chest, and rushed towards Zhang San.

Capture the thief first and capture the king!

"How brave!"

Zhang Sanda shouted loudly, but he was not panicked. He fanned Li Zhi with his big hand like a palm-leaf fan.

Li Zhi originally wanted to withstand Zhang San's slap and then poke a bloody hole in his body.

A slap in the face for a knife, not a loss!

"Snapped!"

But the opposite happened. Li Zhi underestimated Zhang San and overestimated himself.

Zhang San's slap sent Li Zhi flying, and fortunately he fell into the crowd of onlookers. Although no secondary injury was caused, Li Zhi was also dizzy from the slap, and the scissors in his hand had flown away.

Li Zhi was so dizzy that before he could stand firm, a huge fist hit him on the head.

Li Zhi turned his head in a hurry, and the punch did not hit Li Zhi's head, but hit Li Zhi's shoulder, and Li Zhi was knocked to the ground again.

This time, before Li Zhi could stand up again, Zhang San stepped on Li Zhi with his big foot.

"bump!"

Li Zhi was trampled to the ground.

"You are the only one who wants to fight with me? Why don't you even ask who I, Zhang San, am?" Zhang San sneered at Li Zhi under his feet.

As Zhang San spoke, he bent down and grabbed one of Li Zhi's arms, saying viciously, "You can be the immortal master's elixir boy only because you have healthy hands and feet. I'm going to break your hand right now! I wonder how you can still be the elixir boy."

The viciousness revealed in Zhang San's tone made Li Zhi open his eyes wide in horror.
