"Could it be that they just have the same name?" Li Xi said thoughtfully.
She couldn't believe that the old Imperial Master who had just died was Qin Yu.
Jiang Yao didn't dare to make a conclusion, so he shouted loudly: "Here comes someone!"
A waiter immediately walked towards the room and asked respectfully, "What are your orders, Master Imperial Master?"
Jiang Yao sat down and asked: "I want to ask you, what is the surname of the late master?"
The waiter replied: "Returning to the Imperial Master's words, the former Imperial Master's surname was Qin and his given name was Tayu."
Jiang Yao asked again: "What clever methods does Master Qin have?"
The waiter showed a nostalgic look and said: "Master Hui Guoshi, although Qin Guoshi is proficient in hexagrams, he is actually more skilled in medicine and refining medicine, and is known as the Medical Immortal."
When he mentioned Master Qin's medical skills, his eyes lit up.
"Master Qin's great kindness to the country is due to his unparalleled medical skills. Sir, the herbs planted by the former master are in the mansion."
Obviously, the kindness and prestige of Qin Guoshi were unusual in the mansion.
"Take me to see the medicine garden first." Jiang Yao said, temporarily locking the copper box and waiting until you come back to see it.
"No." The waiter took the order and took Jiang Yao and Li Xi out of the study to the medicine garden in the backyard of the mansion.
When Jiang Yao and Li Xi looked at it, they both had complicated expressions in their eyes.
This medicine garden is about five acres in size, and more than a hundred kinds of herbs are planted. However, none of them are spiritual herbs, all of them are ordinary herbs.
In the mortal world, these herbs would be extremely valuable, but in the real world, such mortal herbs have no value at all.
It can be seen that the spiritual energy of this world has collapsed, and it is difficult to grow even the lowest spiritual grass.
Ginger medicine touches the herb and you immediately feel the properties of the herb.
The perception of the medicine spirit body is still there!
Jiang Yao did not expect that although his cultivation was temporarily lost, the power of perception of the Yao Spirit Body still existed.
This is simply an unexpected surprise.
"Are all the herbs planted by Master Qin here?" Jiang Yao asked again.
A medicine slave in the medicine garden immediately took the initiative to report back: "To inform the Imperial Master, the old Imperial Master also has a fairy medicine platform and has planted a fairy grass. The old Imperial Master regards it as a treasure."
Jiang Yaodao: "Take me to have a look."
"No!" The medicine slave did not dare to neglect and immediately led the way.
The Imperial Preceptor's Mansion has extremely high standards and covers a huge area, even including a hill.
The elixir platform that the old Imperial Master attached great importance to was located on the hill.
When Jiang Yao and Li Xi came to this hill, they saw that this hill still had a faint aura.
After they entered the capital of the King of Chu, they did not see any spiritual energy anywhere, with the exception of this hill. But the spiritual energy was very thin.
Soon, Jiang Yao and Li Xi boarded the Immortal Medicine Platform.
The small elixir table is surrounded by jade stems and has a light blue seven-leaf clover planted there.
This herb was carefully planted in the small and medium-sized medicinal gardens on the jade railing. It is located at the highest position in the entire Imperial Prefecture. It is obviously a very noble herb.
This is the fairy grass.
Jiang Yao and Li Xi both smiled bitterly.
Where is this fairy grass? This is clearly a seven-leaf clover.
Seven-leaf clover is a spiritual grass, but it is only the lowest level of first-level spiritual grass. It is also the most abundant and cheapest of the first-level spiritual grasses. You can buy a lot of them with just one piece of spiritual jade.
Its function is to refine the lowest-level spirit-replenishing elixir to replenish the true energy of low-level monks. Its effect is very average, so the price is very cheap. It is a commonly used elixir for low-level casual cultivators.
However, such an ordinary low-level spiritual grass was actually regarded as a fairy grass!
There’s only one plant left!
After the ginger medicine was bitter for a short time, the eyes looking at this "immortal grass" became hot.
That's right, this spiritual grass, which is the cheapest in the real world, is really important to him and Li Xi at this time. It can definitely be regarded as a fairy grass!
"It is indeed a fairy grass. This is called seven-leaf fairy grass. It's a pity that there is another fairy grass missing." Jiang Yao said to the medicine slave.
Yao Nu immediately said: "What the Imperial Master said is absolutely true. The old Imperial Master also said that this is the Seven-leaf Immortal Yun. Although there is one word missing, it is still the same."
Li Xi secretly rolled her eyes after hearing this. A seven-leaf clover actually became the "Seven-leaf Immortal Flower" and the "Seven-leaf Immortal Yun"?
Awesome.
"You must strictly guard this fairy grass." Jiang Yao instructed, "Okay, now go to the mourning hall of the late Imperial Master, express your condolences, and see him off."
Jiang Yao and Li Xi left the "Fairy Medicine Platform" and were led by the waiter to the mourning hall in the west.
The mourning hall has been set up, the priest has lit the candle, the soul has been summoned, and the small and large coffins have been completed, but the mourning process is still ongoing.
Since Qin Guoshi had ordered that the funeral ceremony be simple and not extravagant before his death, the mourning hall was relatively deserted at this time, with only a few vigilantes.
A coffin was quietly placed on the coffin bed, with a burning lamp and a coffin in front of the coffin.
The old Imperial Master had no heirs, only a group of attendants wearing sackcloth and mourning. When everyone saw Imperial Master Zhongda coming in, they immediately started to cry in mourning.
Immediately afterwards, several waiters presented plain clothes and belts to Jiang Yao and Li Xi.
Jiang Yao tied up his girdle, put on his plain clothes, burned incense, bowed and worshiped with a sad face, and said: "Oh, it's so sad. It hurts. My soul is in the underworld. You are in the sky, riding a crane, and your legacy is boundless..."
Then, he wrote an elegiac couplet: "The god has returned to Taisu, and his great virtues still exist; his heart is like a bright lamp, and his reputation will last forever."
Li Xi also followed Jiang Yao's example and followed behind to express condolences to the deceased.
Suddenly, the mourning started again in the mourning hall, especially the attendants who were kind to the old master during his lifetime, crying even more sadly.
Jiang Yao waited until the crying stopped and said by the way: "Open the coffin, I want to see the remains."
"No!" the waiters said to themselves as they accepted the order: "The Imperial Master actually wants to see his body. The condolences to the old Imperial Master are so comprehensive."
The coffin was opened, and Jiang Yao ordered: "Please go out. No one is allowed to enter without my order."
The waiters were puzzled, but did not dare to disobey, and immediately left the mourning hall.
After everyone exited, Jiang Yao and Li Xi looked into the coffin and saw a serene, silver-haired old man lying in the coffin.
Although the silver-haired old man was an old man and his eyes were closed, his face and facial features were somewhat familiar.
Who is it if it’s not Qin Yu?
The face of this old man is very vicissitudes of life, and the quaint and handsome style of the past can be vaguely seen. He is definitely Qin Yu in his old age!
Qin Yu's life was completely gone, but his expression was still lifelike, but with a hint of regret and sadness.
Jiang Yao and Li Xi looked at each other, both showing a hint of sadness as if something had hurt its own species, a rabbit had died and a fox was sad.
It’s really Qin Yu.
Both of them were in a trance, feeling that life was like a dream, time was mysterious, the reality was elusive, and people didn't know what night it was, and could only express countless emotions throughout their lives.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yu, who is famous in the real world, would die alone and old with gray hair in a world where he would become a mortal in the future.
He must have been very lonely before and after his death.
Jiang Yao smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Qin, I didn't expect that I would see you here. You must have never imagined that it was me and Li Xi who were sending you on your last journey, right?"
Li Xi's face was a little pale, "Qin Daozi, if we had come three days earlier, or if you died three days later, we could have gotten together."
Jiang Yao was also very sorry that it was only three days before he could see Qin Yu in his lifetime. Otherwise, there might be a chance to hear what he said.
Jiang Yao and Li Xi paid homage to the deceased's remains seriously, and couldn't help but touch Qin Yu's cold body, both sighing.
Qin Daozi, you are really cold. Your body has turned into a mortal.
well.
How sad.
Jiang Yao and Li Xi panicked when they thought of the word "Hua Fan".
If a monk stays for a long time in a place with no spiritual energy and no cultivation rules, he will slowly turn into a mortal, and finally become a real mortal.
This is transformation.
The lower the cultivation level, the faster it takes to transform into a mortal; the higher the cultivation level, the longer the process of transforming into a mortal.
However, as long as the environment that makes it impossible to practice does not change, no matter how high your cultivation level is, there will be a day when you can completely transform into a mortal.
Qin Yu has obviously gone through the process of becoming a mortal, and his body is almost the same as that of a mortal. However, it took a long time for him to become a mortal.
"Brother Qin, you can go with peace of mind." Jiang Yao patted Qin Yu's hand and stroked Qin Yu's gray beard, "Thank you for your hard work in this world."
Li Xi also patted Qin Yu's hand to express condolences.
Then Jiang Yao sealed the coffin himself.
The two returned to the Imperial Master's study again, opened the copper box, and looked through Qin Yu's belongings. Sure enough, they found a sealed letter at the very end.
The handwriting of the letter is Qin Yu's.
"My end is approaching and my life is not long. How many people know that I am lonely?"
"Five thousand years ago, when I broke through to the Medicine Sage, I wanted to break through to the Martial Sage."
"I looked around for opportunities, entered a secret realm, and broke through to the Martial Saint. However, something unexpected happened in the secret realm, and I couldn't leave."
"I lived in the secret realm for more than three thousand years before I escaped. At that time, I was already a great sage of medicine and martial arts. I thought that after practicing in the secret realm for thousands of years, once I came out of the mountain, I would become a great sage.
The top powerhouse in Shenzhou.”
"I thought that after I got out, I would do something great. My old friend is still here, so I can confide in my heart. Li Luo must still be in the world, and I can still compete with her again."
"Unexpectedly, after I left the secret realm and returned to the real world, I found that my spiritual energy collapsed, my vitality was completely lost, my cultivation path collapsed, and my entire cultivation was completely sealed by the way of heaven!"
"In just over three thousand years, the true world has turned into a forbidden world where cultivation is impossible."
"What scares me even more is that all my old friends are gone. I can't even find a monk!"
"All the famous forces in the past are gone and have disappeared."
"What happened more than three thousand years ago? Who caused all this?"
"My cultivation level has been sealed, so I can't walk very far in a day. It took a lot of effort to confirm that the place I am in is indeed the real world. But now I have become a mortal."
"What's even more terrifying is that the whole world has completely turned into hell. Blood demons and enchanted tapirs are running rampant, killing people and raping everywhere. However, these blood demons and enchanted tapirs have also lost their previous cultivation."
"It's just that even if they lose their cultivation, they are still monsters after all. Their physical strength and power are far superior to humans, and they can do whatever they want. If I hadn't been physically strong, I wouldn't have been able to fight my way out and escape."
"I started looking for the secrets from more than three thousand years ago..."
Jiang Yao and Li Xi understood Qin Yu's last letter after reading it.
It turns out that we are in the real world five thousand years later. Qin Yu entered a secret realm to practice and was trapped in the secret realm for more than three thousand years. After he achieved great success, he escaped, only to find that the real world was beyond recognition.
Therefore, after Qin Yu came out, he was also looking for the answer and searched for two thousand years.
The Yue Dynasty ruled for more than three thousand years and then perished. In other words, it is now two thousand years since the Yue Dynasty collapsed.
Two thousand years is a long time in the mortal world, enough to obliterate the history of the Yue Dynasty. Therefore, the history of the Yue Dynasty has also become a secret.
Qin Yu lived for five thousand years, but in fact he was far from dying. Because the two great saints, the Great Sage of Martial Arts and the Great Sage of Medicine, had a lifespan of at least 6,000 years.
The reason why Qin Yu lived less than a thousand years was of course because he became mortal.
Although his cultivation level was sealed, he was still a Double Great Sage, so it took a long time to transform into a mortal, lasting two thousand years.
When his body is completely mortal, he will die of old age.
If he hadn't been trapped in a secret realm for more than three thousand years, he wouldn't have been able to survive now, and would have died of old age before the Yue Dynasty was destroyed.
However, Qin Yu has worked hard for two thousand years to investigate, visited many places, and moved around, but he did not find many clues.
Because after the fall of the Yue Dynasty, the Blood Demon and the Charming Tapir destroyed all records. He is almost a mortal, what can he find?
He only found some scattered historical materials. The conclusion was: "A man named Jiang Zhengyi eliminated Jiang Yao, Yu Kuan and others, unified the world, and established the Yue Dynasty."
As for what happened to Jiang Zhengyi and why he was able to win, we have no idea.
Over the past two thousand years, he has repeatedly deduced and concluded that only by finding the natural time formation can it be possible to leave this world.
He spent many years looking for the natural time formation, and finally only had a hundred years left to live, so he found the Chu State in the desert oasis and became a national advisor for a hundred years.
His purpose in leaving this letter was that if any ancient monks like him saw this letter, they would try to find the natural time formation. If they could go back to the past, they might be able to change something.
He was sure that somewhere in the Chu Kingdom, there should be a passage to the Time Array, but unfortunately he had turned into a mortal and could not enter at all.
But he left clues, and he judged that the entrance to the time passage might be in the Tortoiseshell Mountain in the northern part of Chu State.
It took him a long time to deduce this point. If he were not the Double Great Sage, he would not be able to do this in twenty thousand years, let alone two thousand years.
During the fullest month of the fifteenth month, somewhere in Tortoiseshell Mountain, if you can take a spiritual elixir, even the lowest elixir, you can temporarily recover your cultivation and enter that passage.
It's a pity that he has completely transformed into a mortal, his cultivation has been completely sealed, and there is nothing he can do anymore.
Jiang Yao said with joy and emotion: "It took Qin Yu two thousand years to finally find a way and clues to leave. Unfortunately, he turned into a mortal completely and was unable to leave. A double great sage just turned into a mortal and died of old age."
Li Xi also said excitedly: "So, we can really leave? Could the Tortoiseshell Mountain that Qin Yu mentioned be the mountain we came from?"
Jiang Yaodao: "That's probably it. Qin Yu is a double great sage and has practiced in the secret realm for thousands of years. His judgment should be correct. However, it is only the beginning of the month, so don't rush there yet."
"And there is still a shortage of elixirs. Our elixirs cannot be retrieved from the ring, and the lowest elixirs are not available. We can only use the seven-leaf clover planted by Qin Yu to refine the lowest elixirs."
He felt a little ashamed.
Qin Yu spent two thousand years to finally make a wedding dress for himself?
Li Xi said worriedly: "Although you are a Medicine Immortal, your cultivation level has been sealed and this place has been reduced to the mortal world. How can you refine the elixir?"
Jiang Yao pondered and said: "I am a medicine spirit body. Maybe I can give it a try. It's not impossible to refine a first-class elixir. It's just that I still need a spiritual herb. It's hard to find."
Li Xi thought for a while, "Is my blood good? I am half-witch's blood."
Jiang Yao's eyes suddenly lit up.
yes.
Half-witch's blood is also considered a spiritual medicine.
But the problem is, there is no elixir in the real world that is refined with the blood of seven-leaf clover and half-witch?
what to do?
