Mystery makes me strong

Chapter 2539 Refining the elixir of longevity

After hearing this, the three of them knew why the other party wanted to kill the Lin family prince.

The reason is that the other party is already old and still takes up resources.

Killing him will save a lot of resources.

The three of them thought for a while and nodded.

have to say.

What the other party said is actually right.

Soon, they decided to cooperate with each other and take down the Lin family prince.

Soon.

Lin Xiaoye's grandfather finally arrived.

After he arrived, with the cooperation of the three of them, it was easy to find the three people.

However, what confused the three of them was that he did not fight.

On the contrary, he shook his head and said:
"Actually, I understand your grievances."

"This matter is also caused by my unscrupulous grandson."

When the three of them heard this, their hearts moved.

Li Yingyuan felt that the old man seemed to be reasonable.

It's a pity that I didn't have contact with him in my last life.

It seems that the King of Hell is really easy to meet, but the kid is difficult to deal with.

Those who can reach the top level, except for those weirdos from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, most of them understand some basic logic.

However, it turns out that they thought too much.

Strange things come from strange things.

Just listen to the Lin family's Taishang say to the three people:
"Okay, you two just need to help me research a longevity medicine."

"I can ignore the death of my grandson."

When the three of them heard this, they immediately wanted to laugh.

"Haha, for the sake of your own immortality, do you even care about the death of your grandson?"

"Is this the favor of a big family?" Li Yingyuan sneered.

"Hahaha, isn't it normal?"

"I am 118 years old this year. I have 50 great-grandsons alone, let alone one grandson?"

"Why should I care so much?"

The three of them were silent.

What the other party said makes sense.

The ancients had seven or eight, or even a dozen, children in their lifetime.

Therefore, children who are drowned, thrown away, or run away by themselves are not taken seriously at all.

Even Li Yingyuan himself remembered that when he was a child, there were a family of seven or eight children. The third child was lost, and his mother just said that the third child was missing and did not look for it.

People's hearts only depend on how much they have.

Compared to Li Yingyuan's naivety, Wu Zetian understood very well how powerful people's hearts are.

For the sake of mere power and position, one can kill one's own children. For the sake of a more precious lifespan, it is normal to ignore the death of a grandson.

"Okay, it seems that we can negotiate with each other, but don't you think your asking price is too high?" Wu Zetian said.

"It's not high at all. I don't need to take it seriously."

"But after all, you killed one of my grandsons. If others think I can bear it, they will think I am incompetent."

"So I have to pay enough to let them know that I am not incompetent, but that I gave up my grandson for the sake of higher interests." The Supreme Leader of the Lin family said coldly.

The three of them were silent.

Li Yingyuan thought of the leader of Mao Xiong. He could be cruel, ruthless, and harsh, but he could never be incompetent.

Once they think you are incompetent, they will immediately rebel, drag you down and kill you.

On the contrary, you are cruel and ruthless, but as long as you lead them all the way to victory, they will only cheer for you.

This is also the basis for any superior person.

There is much cruelty among those in power, but as long as they have outstanding abilities, they will be praised by thousands of people.

In the final analysis, it is because the people the superior can come into contact with are the small group of people around them.

They experience each other's cruelty directly, others indirectly.

For example, large-scale construction projects are also a kind of cruelty.

But the incompetence of the superiors directly affects the entire territory under their control.

Just like Li Shimin killed his brother and eldest brother for the throne.

In fact, this is natural and understandable.

After all, if he doesn't do this, he will be unlucky, and the men who follow him will also be unlucky.

His real black spot in this matter is that he took over his brother's wife...

Those were just weak women, and he would either imprison them or kill them directly, which was both in line with etiquette.

But he actually occupied it directly.

at this point. In any case, upon closer inspection, Lao Qiu is unbearable.

This is the true evil of a superior person...

He can kill his brothers and seize the highest position for his own survival and power.

No one could accuse him of that.

Only the latter point, the attitude shown when facing the absolute weak, is a person's true character.

After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other.

Li Yingyuan seemed a little moved.

If he could settle the matter with the Lin family in time and return to normal life in time, he would be very eager to do so.

However, Wu Zetian sneered:
"We killed him as a legitimate act of self-defense."

"Why should we compensate you for a legitimate matter?"

"If you do this, it will appear that we are weaker than you."

The prompter just told her that this was a test from the Lin family's Supreme Leader.

If they retreat easily, the result will be that the other party will force them into a blind corner step by step.

Many battles in history started like this.

"What you said makes sense. Well, let's choose the mode of mutual cooperation."

"After cooperation, I will pay you a reward. As long as this cooperation is successful, the past affairs will be wiped off."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian nodded: "Well, that's almost it."

Soon the two parties reached a settlement and seemed to compromise with each other.

Li Yingyuan agreed.

He had long wanted to get out of this life.

When Wen Rensheng saw this, he shook his head slightly.

This is the compromise and weakness of the time traveler.

The life of cheating made him lose his temper.

There is no real spiritual growth.

He didn't know at all that he could not waver in his character towards such a vengeful person.

It must be completely eradicated before stability can be achieved.

As long as you have the intention to compromise in your heart, it will basically end in a tragedy in the future.

If there are too many people who tolerate it, it will basically not end well.

For example, the piece of embroidery against Cao Cao.

It seems that Cao Cao tolerated Zhang Xiu and did not punish him until Cao Cao died.

However, it was for the greater good, for the advancement of his family.

When Cao Pi came to power, Zhang Xiu died inexplicably soon.

Zhang Xiu had already forged such a big feud with the other party, so the best way was to flee to Shu.

That can lead to a stable life.

If you take too much into account, the result will be a tragedy in your life.

Then the three of them discussed with the Lin family's queen.

After the discussion, the Lin family's Supreme Leader said to them: "Okay, now you have a mission."

"Now I need to find the main ingredient for refining immortality."

"This main ingredient is the heart of an immortal bear."

"At least the heart of a bear that has lived for 200 years."

"Can bears live for 200 years?" Li Yingyuan was a little confused.

Because in his impression, bears can only live up to 30 years.

Most animals in the wild have short lifespans on average.

So long-lived species cannot be screened out.

Longevity among animals does not have many advantages for group survival.

On the contrary, it is a better way to survive to give birth to children immediately after maturity and save resources to raise more children. Like snakes, one of the most successful species.

It can be said that it has survived for hundreds of millions of years.

Not many of them have a long lifespan.

If you want to live a long life, you must have enough food and few natural enemies.

In this regard, plants have many advantages over animals.

This is just like human beings. Before the formation of civilization, the average life span of human beings was only twenty or thirty years.

Similar to a monkey.

It can be said that the average life span of human beings has reached more than 70 years, and it is entirely due to the evolution of their own civilization that they have gradually solved the problem of life extension.

The upper limit of life span of ordinary animals is also over 80 years old.

Such as elephants and whales.

But it is not easy for their average life span to be the same as that of humans.

In fact, after actual statistics, the average number is in the 20s, or even in the teens.

Then the three of them began to look for the immortal bear.

However, in Wen Rensheng's view, they were facing a huge danger.

This danger does not come from animals, but from people.

Soon Wu Zetian also discovered this.

She knew very well that this was a new trouble the world had created for her.

What started as a small trouble gradually turned into a big one.

This is also a commonly used method around the world.

What seemed like a small conflict gradually became a big thread.

The consequences of their compromise with the Lin family emerged.

Of course, if they don't compromise with the ancestors of the Lin family, they will cause other troubles.

In short, judging from Wu Zetian's experience, it is impossible to avoid trouble.

The more you avoid trouble, the greater it will be.

They seem to avoid small troubles, but they will cause bigger troubles.

In this case, it is better to face it proactively.

Take the initiative to face these troubles and solve them with relatively skilled means.

Rather than keep avoiding it, until finally there comes a big trouble that is completely unavoidable.

Regarding this point, Wu Zetian thought of the "Death" room she encountered before.

That's it there.

It seemed that he had avoided several big troubles, but in the end he caused more and more big troubles that he couldn't solve at all.

From the beginning, he did not go out on the street or outside, but locked himself in a strong room.

Eliminate any hidden dangers.

However, the result was that God suddenly sent a meteorite from the sky.

Just smashed everything flat.

Of course she had a prompter and dodged in time.

She chose to hide on the space station.

However, this is not over yet, another meteorite hits the space station.

Then she understood that she couldn't hide from trouble.

To solve it bravely.

Just like now, they ran into a problem.

That's how to find bears.

But this trouble was what Wu Zetian liked.

Because it's a fixed nuisance.

So at this point it can be said that neither Li Yingyuan nor Wu Zetian made the wrong choice.

Why did Wu Zetian choose the right one?

Mainly because of the prompter.

She also has certain reasoning abilities herself.

But they are at most elites in the workplace and cannot rise to the strategic level.

Although the reminder given to her by the reminder cannot be too far in the future, it can only remind her of recent events.

But this is also very powerful.

Prompters are not simulator cheats, nor do they make one a prophet.

It can only remind you what choices you make and what consequences they will bring.

But this consequence is time-limited.

Generally, they will tell you the consequences within a few days.

For example, it is impossible, after you make a certain choice, to remind you in one breath what may develop in the next few decades.

Then it is not called a prompter, it can be called a prophet or a prophet.

With the help of the prompter, Wu Zetian and the other four finally found the clues, and then went to hunt down the immortal bear.

The Immortal Bear lived a full 234 years.

The reason why it can live for such a long time is because it also gains the power of medicine.

When they discovered the Immortal Bear, they were shocked.

Because the other party is really too powerful.

And not only the immortal bear, it also has three children to help.

Naturally, they thought that this bear had mastered the art of medicine.

However, this extraordinary medical power actually turned into a bear, which allowed him to regenerate his severed limbs.

As long as it consumes fat, the bear can continue to recover from its injuries.

They naturally choose to use guns.

But even a gun can't break the opponent's bearskin!

The opponent is completely in line with the bear's point-adding method.

High defense, high strength, high sense of smell.

The bear was seen attacking them.

Its three children also circled around each other.

The three men then chose to turn around and run away.

The Lin family's leader is the fastest.

"Now I know why you can live so long." Li Yingyuan complained.

"Yes, my legs have been growing since I was a kid, and I have been practicing running well since I was a child."

"So all my peers died on the way to growing up, but I am the only one who has lived a safe life." The Supreme Leader of the Lin family said proudly while swinging his long legs.

"This is too exaggerated. I always feel that you are..." Li Yingyuan shook his head.

"If you think I'm lying, then I will show you the memoirs of other peers. They will know how strong I am."

"Hahaha, those of your peers are all dead. With your relationship with the Lin family, wouldn't it be easy to tamper with their memoirs?" Wu Zetian said with disdain.

"Yes, it's like Zhu Di abolished the reign title of Emperor Jianwen for four years." Li Yingyuan also said.

"Then he directly said that he had succeeded the Hongwu Emperor. This is really ridiculous."

The Queen of the Lin family just smiled.

Naturally, he didn't say why those peers couldn't outrun him.

Apart from the fact that he could run, it was also because he drugged his peers in times of crisis, making their legs weak.

His way of medicine is actually the way of poison.

Poison is also an antidote.

In fact, penicillin is the poison of many germs, but it is not harmful to human cells.

Allergy to penicillin injection is due to excessive impurities and insufficient purity.

Pure penicillin is harmless to humans.

But it can kill germs.

And the same is true for his poison method.

It's just that it has a wider range of uses.

And because the pilot had no medical power, he did not join the hunting operation.

He was just doing the logistics at home.

The three continued to flee home.

The Supreme Leader of the Lin family did not bring extra people over because he did not want the news to leak out.

For this reason, he also requested not to find anyone else to cooperate with.

After all, this is refining elixir of longevity.
