This Martial Saint is too generous.

Chapter 258 Ordinary People's Fate, Can That Be Called Fate?

Qin Jinyang fell into deep thought.

Yes.

After all, I still couldn't get into the perspective of the superior in the first place.

For high-level people, ordinary people are just consumables, just swarms of ants. Even if the entire army of 20 is wiped out, it is just a cold number.

In the eyes of the emperor, the value of a fourth-rank Dzogchen warrior is definitely more than a few thousand ordinary people.

In fact, on the battlefield, it is not uncommon for a low-level army to kill a high-level army. There are even extreme cases where a second-rank army kills a fifth-rank army, but it is a battle between trapped beasts at the cost of thousands of lives.

An elephant can kill a mouse with one breath.

But tens of thousands of mice swarmed over, no matter how huge the colossus was, the final result was still no bones left.

In the world of martial arts, the combat power of a single warrior is indeed terrifying, but it is still insignificant in the face of an absolute disaster. An overwhelming army is a kind of disaster.

But even so, the emperor would still choose Sipin Dan.

There is no way, a tool is just a tool after all, if the tool wears out, just replenish it.

Among the emperor's sons and grandsons, there are many fourth-rank warriors who need precious pills to break through.

The emperor's subordinates also have heirs who are stuck in the fourth rank, and they need to win people's hearts by themselves.

Qin Jinyang even took the role of emperor into himself.

If you are the emperor, how should you choose between these two pills?

There is no doubt that a fourth-rank Dzogchen warrior must be important.

But ordinary soldiers are also indispensable. The border needs to be defended, guarded, patrolled, someone is needed to appease the victims, and someone is needed to allocate supplies and deliver luggage.

Which is more important?

The role of the fourth rank on the battlefield...

Eh... wait... no...

Qin Jinyang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

He suddenly realized a problem. When his thinking was substituted into the perspective of the emperor, he actually ignored life directly.

Correct.

Qin Jinyang was only calculating gains and losses, and was only studying the maximization of benefits. He didn't realize that ordinary soldiers were also human beings.

Behind these people, there may be gray-haired old mothers, children who are waiting to be fed, and wives who are looking forward to it.

All living beings are inconspicuous, but they also have the right to look forward to their son's return, their husband's return, and their father's return.

Ordinary people should be sacrificed?

Ordinary people are not qualified to live?
Compared to fourth-rank fighters losing a few pills, what the bottom soldiers lose...is their lives!

Is the only life!

At some point, everyone's thinking is about winning or losing, gains and losses, as if no one cares about living a living life.

Those tool people also have emotions, sorrows and joys, and they will cry and laugh after drinking, and they will hold a wild flower and miss the girl in the distance who misses day and night.

Why can't they have an extra guarantee?
……

"Brother Qin, do you also think that it is not unacceptable to refine the fourth-grade pill without using real fire?"

Qin Jinyang was still in a daze, but Shi Yingnan suddenly said again.

"Ah...this..."

Qin Jinyang froze for a moment.

He was still thinking about whether he was a bit of a saint because he was worried about the lives of ordinary soldiers.

Compassion does not command soldiers. If he becomes a general and is indecisive, will he kill the army?

In the last days, a holy mother like myself would not be slaughtered by the first knife.

"War is war, and war is a calculation. Victory is always the only measure. The value of a fourth-rank pinnacle on the battlefield may really exceed 500 troops."

"I don't say anything about the emperor's choice of the fourth-grade pill, but I can understand it in my heart."

"But things are not that simple! The Healing Pill is Mr. Qiu's lifelong painstaking effort. In the process of research, Mr. Qiu considered the issue of benefiting the bottom layer early on. In fact, the raw materials are not too harsh. As long as the emperor is willing, mass production will soon be possible. .”

"But the Sipin Pill mutated in the middle, and the refining materials are scarce, so the output is destined to not be high. This is a waste of real fire."

Shi Yingnan sighed heavily.

Qin Jinyang nodded.

It seems that Shi Yingnan's heart is still hard.

You Tongplague is dedicated to helping the world with a pot, and has no other distractions.

On the contrary, people like me, swaying left and right, are the most entangled in their hearts.

Perhaps, this is a common problem of time travelers.

Living in a peaceful country since he was a child, and then traveling to a cruel world, sometimes he is decisive in his heart, and sometimes there are some common problems of the Madonna.

"If fourth-rank warriors take fourth-rank pills, break through to fourth-rank Dzogchen one after another, and then go directly to the battlefield to charge, I am willing to persuade the master."

"But the fourth-grade elixir will definitely give priority to the emperor's relatives, and the noble heirs of the ministers and ministers. But this group of people will never go to the battlefield. They break through just to show off their talents, as long as they inherit the rights of their parents faster, In order to get promoted and get rich.”

"Even if they don't need it themselves, they will hoard the fourth-grade pills and sell them at a high price. They will never let those who need them get the fourth-grade pills."

"If one day the dynasty falls, this group of people will definitely flee or join the enemy army the soonest... Before the fall of the previous dynasty, there were countless young masters in the imperial city. They took away a lot of resources from the previous dynasty. You can swear to protect the capital to the death, but everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, it is simply incomprehensible."

"Hehehe...Yan Jingyuan insisted on refining the fourth-grade pills. In addition to flattering the emperor, he can also earn a lot of money...It's a lot of money."

Shi Yingnan sneered, with a contemptuous expression. He didn't know if he was laughing at the corruption of the dynasty, or he was laughing at himself for meddling with a mouse.

"Ha ha……"

Qin Jinyang smiled, but didn't know what to say.

This is human nature, not to mention the relatively closed world of martial arts, even in the previous life with advanced technology, isn't it exactly the same?
Jobs with real money and leisure never appear on recruitment software.

All have sons and daughters to inherit.

Even, they will try their best to get nephews and nephews in and occupy the hole together.

There is never anything new under the sun.

……

"What's the current situation? Has the emperor ordered the refining of fourth-grade pills?"

The two were silent for a few breaths, and Qin Jinyang spoke to break the deadlock.

"Oh, don't mention it!"

"My master is still trying to dissuade the emperor, and Yan Jingyuan has been quietly refining the fourth-grade pills... This morning, the first batch of pills has been released."

"I have to admit that Yan Jingyuan has some skills, and the effect of the fourth-grade pill is outstanding, even exceeding expectations. The emperor Longyan is very happy."

Shi Yingnan sighed again.

"What? Are they all refined?"

"Then what are you talking about? It's a done deal, don't think about the past, let the genius doctor think about it."

Qin Jinyang couldn't laugh or cry.

He thought that the Sipin Pill and the Healing Pill were in a stalemate, but it turned out that the opponent had already pushed the crystal away.

"Before Mr. Qiu died, the master and Yan Jingyuan promised that the elixir would be named after Mr. Qiu."

"Although the master was angry, he still went to find Yan Jingyuan. According to the agreement, the elixir should be named after Mr. Qiu... But who would have thought that Yan Jingyuan would even flatter the emperor with the name of the elixir. To actually name the pill after the concubine Yuan."

"Wenloudan...what the hell is this name? It's because Concubine Yuan's real name is Yuan Wenlou."

"Originally, this elixir should be called Qiu Mindan... Mr. Qiu has a heart for all people."

Every time Yan Jingyuan's name was mentioned, Shi Yingnan's teeth itch with anger, wishing to fill Yan Jingyuan's head in the cesspit and let the dung drown him alive.

"This... this guy is really shameless."

Qin Jinyang had never met Yan Jingyuan before, and the officials of Taidan Academy did not go to court, so he even wanted to meet this old fox.

"Then what's the situation with the divine doctor now?"

Qin Jinyang asked again, hoping that the genius doctor would not be angry and make trouble.

"I was so angry that I vomited blood. I vomited several times. Now I am still paralyzed on the bed. Even I was kicked out."

"You don't know how many beasts Yan Jing used to be. The master was already dizzy when he learned that the elixir was formed and the name was given as Wenlou Pill. At this time, the group of quack doctors in the Taidan Academy deliberately mocked the master. How many beasts He spitting blood, even slandering the master for embezzling the funds and silver taels of the Taidan Institute, and insulting my master as a wine bag, living in the Taidan Institute to cheat food and drink."

"That's right, the master really likes to drink, but when Yan Jingyuan wooed the master, he promised over and over again that the Taidan Institute has wine every day, and it is all royal wine."

"Master was so angry, he packed his bags and left Taidan Academy directly."

"Yan Jingyuan appeared last, he didn't even blame those quack doctors who humiliated his master, he just sent him off in a hypocritical way..."

Shi Yingnan pinched the table, although Yan Jingyuan didn't say anything to humiliate the master, but he could stop it, why didn't he stand up.

Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and scold your mother.

How could there be such a beast in the world.

"Ugh……"

Qin Jinyang sighed.

Yan Jingyuan should not have taken the initiative to mock You Tongwen, or even other quack doctors, without Yan Jingyuan's instruction.

The existence of copper plague itself is a thorn in Taidanyuan, and his coming to Taidanyuan to do business has already shown that Taidanyuan is a bunch of drunks.

This group of people is humiliating You Tongplague on the surface, but they are actually insulting the useless self in their hearts.

Too many people's interests have been affected, and others are eager to drink your blood. Now that the dust has settled, who will give you a good face.

What's more, you are still the leader of the scattered medical alliance, and the relationship between the two factions has eased, but it is only on the surface, and they are still in a state of incompatibility in their hearts.

It is even more impossible for Yan Jingyuan to stop him, after all, he still needs his subordinates to handle matters.

……

"When the master came back, he lost a lot of weight, and he looked several years old..."

"The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became, so he made me buy a whole yard of spirits..."

"The sky pays off. The master drank hard alcohol and slept without sleep. Finally, on the basis of the residual formula, he found an advanced method again. He researched a more efficient fourth-grade elixir formula."

"If you refine the pill according to this recipe, the effect will be even more powerful than Wenlou Pill."

"It's also lucky. When Mr. Qiu was still alive, he gave the master a ball of never-falling real fire early on. This ball of flame has not been specially treated, so it is impossible to refine healing pills...but this ball of never-falling real fire can be refined Brand new Sipin Dan."

Shi Yingnan's expression was ferocious, and his breath became domineering, as if he had been brewing these few words.

"and then!"

Qin Jin raised his eyebrows and became excited for a while.

Doesn't this just ignite.

Next, the miracle doctor's strong revenge, and the plots of pretending to be slapped in the face should appear one after another.

what.

It seems not so optimistic.

The excitement on Shi Yingnan's face only appeared for a moment, and then suddenly became sluggish again.

"Ugh……"

"The master took a brand-new pill formula, went directly to the emperor, and told all the causes and consequences."

"The master asked the emperor to make an order to change the Wenlou Pill in the Taidan Institute to Healing Pill, and he promised that the new Sipin Pill will definitely be more effective than Wenlou Pill."

Shi Yingnan smiled wryly again and again, his originally young face even showed vicissitudes that shouldn't be there.

"Is there a possibility... two kinds of fourth-grade pills, the emperor wants them all! For things like fourth-grade pills, the more the better, the excellent ones are given to the royal family, and the second is rewarded to the courtiers... Ordinary soldiers are nothing. "

Qin Jinyang hit the nail on the head.

Shi Yingnan stared at Qin Jinyang, stunned for a moment, his face full of tears and laughter.

"Actually, the master and the emperor negotiated the conditions. To refine the new fourth-grade pill, the Taidan Academy must change the Wenlou pill into a healing pill."

"Master is willing to exchange the real fire that does not fall in his hand for the real fire that does not fall from the Taidan Academy... Master is even willing to sit in the Taidan Academy and refine the healing pill by himself."

"In fact, the master has a trump card in his hand. As long as he comes into contact with the real fire from the Taidan Academy, he can freeze it forever. From then on, the Taidan Academy can only refine healing pills. As long as the deal is done, the emperor will also We can only be forced to accept, after all, there is no chance of Wenlou Pill, and Healing Pill can really save lives."

"This trump card is also the result of the master's hard thinking and meditation. The master only needs to have a chance to touch the real fire to kill Yan Jingyuan."

Shi Yingnan said quietly.

"Does the emperor agree?"

Qin Jinyang asked hurriedly.

"agreed!"

"But the emperor is not a fool. He set a time limit for the master to refine a new fourth-grade alchemy within three days, and to surpass Wenlou alchemy in an all-round way."

Shi Yingnan Road.

"Isn't that right? All the problems have been solved. With the ability of the genius doctor, I believe he can refine the top four pills. Since the winning ticket is in your hands, why are you angry?"

Qin Jinyang breathed a sigh of relief.

If the emperor opened his mouth, then he can't go back on his word, otherwise, who would dare to believe your words?

Jinkouyuyan, sometimes also a constraint on the emperor.

Therefore, the emperor generally does not make random orders.

The only pity is that the fourth-grade elixir is so precious, it was a blood loss for the genius doctor to give it to the emperor in one go.

Of course, this is from the perspective of ordinary people. In the eyes of a genius doctor, an ordinary life may be worth tens of thousands of gold leaves.

……

The scene fell into a brief silence again.

Shi Yingnan's expression was complicated, and he subconsciously smiled. It was a sneer of extreme anger.

"If things really go well, then the chances of winning are sure, but Yan Jingyuan is despicable and shameless."

Mentioning this name, Shi Yingnan squeezed his palms together again.

"Hearing about the matter of the master meeting the saint, Yan Jingyuan ran outside the master's yard overnight and asked to see the master."

"The master didn't see him. He actually took out the cane in public and threw away his coat. He was about to plead guilty. He was still outside the door talking about the brotherly love."

"It's also my fault for my master's soft ears. He allowed Yan Jingyuan to come in because he was soft-hearted for a moment."

"Actually, at the beginning, the master was very vigilant, but Yan Jingyuan, an old fox, just drank with the master to reminisce about the old days, and didn't mention anything about the master's face saint and the new fourth-grade pill..."

"I was also in the yard at the time. This bastard was crying and confessing. He kept saying he was sorry for Mr. Qiu. He blamed the name of the pill on the emperor and concubine Yuan. He acted like he had been wronged."

"That night, the two drank a lot of wine."

Shi Yingnan took a deep breath and continued, "The next day, master will start alchemy."

"Guess what? An important medicinal material needed for alchemy was still being transported on the road, but it was taken away by the Taidan Institute at ten times the price, and the liquidated damages of the firm were sent directly to the master."

"Tricks...it's all Yan Jingyuan's tricks, drinking is a trick!"

Shi Yingnan slapped the table, and his blood pressure rose visible to the naked eye.

"Yan Jingyuan's alchemy talent is not as good as his master's, but he is also known as the second in Zhongzhou. He studied Wenlou Dan all the way, followed the master's thinking, and began to deduce and analyze the new fourth-grade pill. Although he had nothing to rely on, he came to the master's yard after all. …Through the taste, he judged that the master needs a single medicinal material, but this medicinal material is scarce and grows extremely slowly."

"On the way back to Taidanyuan, Yan Jingyuan sent people to intercept all the medicinal materials... Taidanyuan made a move, which firm would dare to be disobedient?"

"Master came back to his senses and immediately went to other businesses to buy medicine... Unfortunately, it was too late, and all businesses were out of stock."

"Three days, the master only has three days."

"This kind of medicinal material grows in a special environment, and it is not available in foreign countries. If you want to grow a plant, it will take half a year at the earliest... Master's only way is blocked again."

Shi Yingnan shook his head, his face full of despair.

"The master promised in the imperial study room that if no new alchemy surpassing Wenlou Dan was refined within three days, the formula of the new alchemy would be given to the Taidan Academy for free, and his real fire would also be donated to the Taidan Academy. Danyuan."

"The emperor will not deceive the master, but the emperor does not allow others to deceive the king."

Shi Yingnan shook his head, his face full of bitterness and bitterness.

"This... you can file a complaint with the emperor and explain the situation... Bah... that's all, I'm talking too much."

Qin Jinyang subconsciously wanted to argue.

But on second thought, the emperor sat on the dragon chair, overlooking his fighting cocks.

No matter who wins, in fact, in the end, you win.

Willing to admit defeat, the emperor only needs to wait for the result, there is no need to intervene at all.

"It's over, it's over! In less than two days, all my master's hard work has been plundered by Yan Jingyuan."

Shi Yingnan stood up: "Brother Qin, since you are fine, I'll take a step first."

"I don't have any friends in the imperial capital. I'm actually depressed. I come to you to complain and express my grievances. I feel much more comfortable."

"Don't worry, my master is exhausted physically and mentally, but if he loses, he loses. He can think about it."

"You will be a fourth-rank soon. If there is a chance in the future, I will try my best to help you get a few Wenlou Pills... What a bad luck, it is obviously my own family's elixir."

After the words fell, Shi Yingnan turned and left.

"This issue……"

Qin Jinyang got up to bid farewell, feeling unhappy.

……

Prince East Palace!

Eunuch Han knelt on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

The prince was lying on the bed with a weak face, and the princess was standing aside with a sad expression.

"Ugh……"

Looking at Eunuch Han, who was neither human nor ghost, the prince sighed quietly, not knowing what to say.

20 troops.

"Your Highness, the old slave is guilty, and the old slave is sorry for you."

Eunuch Han kowtowed heavily, his old face was full of tears.

"This time I'm alone, I'm dizzy, I can't speak, anyway... thanks to your elixir."

"You are considered smart, but you actually thought of asking Beiying Flying General to help deliver the pill... To tell you the truth, during the few days when Gu was seriously ill, I didn't see anyone. Fortunately, I was the personal bodyguard of the princess. If it was someone else, Gu I really dare not take pills casually."

"No matter what mistakes you made in the army, this time you have a heart."

The prince coughed twice.

As a prince, many things are involuntary.

In fact, if you lie down for a period of time, the disease will fade away like a tide.

In fact, many people offered pills, but there were more people with malicious intentions in the palace. When the crown prince fell ill, he could not speak easily and could not tell at all. Fortunately, he refused all of them, unless he was someone who he trusted.

Coincidentally, Qin Jinyang does not involve the interests of other princes, so he can be regarded as a special group.

Eunuch Han was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Qin Jinyang sent the pill to His Royal Highness, he already knew about it.

But he didn't expect that Qin Jinyang would send the pill in his own name.

In this way, the reward he could have received would be gone.
