Those food trays took up a lot of ground, and the floor was almost full. The old Taoist priest jumped over the food like he was playing treasure, and an alchemy furnace appeared in front of him.

The alchemy furnace is three people tall. There is a slow fire beating inside the alchemy furnace at this moment. It seems that the final stage of collecting the elixirs with a slow fire has come.

However, the top of the alchemy furnace was lifted up by a winch chain on the side, and it seemed that the alchemy collection had ended.

"I didn't see Cheng Baiqing, the academician of Taiyuan Hospital, along the way. Could it be that he got the news in advance and fled in fear of crime?" the old Taoist priest muttered.

Jin An's eyes were always fixed on the alchemy furnace.

The old Taoist priest turned around and looked around, and found a long ladder next to rows of towering medicine cabinets. Then he climbed up the ladder and looked curiously into the alchemy furnace from a high place. He saw a figure sitting cross-legged in the alchemy furnace with a slow fire.

He was a thin old man with white beard and hair, motionless, as if he was sitting on a corpse. His face, hands, and neck were covered with hairy mildew spots, like ugly green or purple corpse spots all over his body.

Under the slow fire of the alchemy furnace, the corpse spots were contained and did not spread further.

"Isn't this Cheng Baiqing, academician of Taiyuan Hospital!" the old Taoist priest whispered.

Jin An obviously stood still and did not see the scene in the alchemy furnace, but at this moment he said something shocking: "To be more precise, he is the empty shell of Cheng Baiqing, and Cheng Baiqing is dead."

"The academician of Taiyuan Hospital was already dead when he met Su Susu seven years ago!" This was the old Taoist priest's first reaction.

"Then how did he hide from the supervision of the Tianshi Mansion in front of the imperial city gate after entering the palace for so many years?"

Jin An: "He must have just died a few days ago. The reason why he is sitting in the alchemy furnace now is because someone is refining the body with elixir fire and using elixirs to slow down the decay of the body. He does not want the outside world to know too early that the academician of Taiyuan Hospital died suddenly.

At home.”

The old Taoist priest was still standing on the long ladder, looking at Cheng Baiqing's corpse sitting in the elixir fire for refining. He was full of doubts: "What is the purpose of preserving his body? Does the person behind it want to keep Cheng Baiqing's body for other purposes, such as giving

An important figure in the palace was poisoned?"

Jin An looked indifferent: "If you interrogate this Su Susu witch, everything will be revealed."

The dead man who was sitting cross-legged in the alchemy fire of the alchemy furnace and remained motionless suddenly opened his eyes, and there was an evil black energy flashing in his eyes.

"Little brother, be careful!"

There was no need for the old Taoist priest to remind him that Jin An's spiritual consciousness had already seen the changes in the alchemy furnace. Jin An had already prepared the King of Qin Bone Mirror and suppressed Cheng Baiqing's body until it could not move.

"Three religions and nine schools are worthy of working in front of me." Jin An directly grabbed Cheng Baiqing's body from the alchemy furnace.

Without the elixir fire to suppress the death aura, mold spots on the surface of Cheng Baiqing's body immediately spread rapidly, causing a stink. Then the flesh and blood peeled off like mud, and the internal organs also fell to the ground. The ten-day decomposition process was completed in just a short period of time.

"Originally attached to the soul, even a Third Realm Shinto dares to eavesdrop on our conversation. Let me see who is controlling the corpse!" Looking at the highly decomposed Cheng Baiqing corpse in his hand, Jin An did not throw it away in disgust, and directly used the Taoist technique of detecting the bag to retrieve the object.
