After Shi Xuan had eaten and drank enough, he had time to observe this ancient city that was completely different from modern society. While recalling the road to the south of the city, he looked around. Maybe because today was a market day, there was a huge flow of people, and there were some small vendors on both sides.
Some daily necessities are sold, and it seems that they have been here for a long time. Vegetable sellers are generally concentrated on a few of the streets. Beyond these streets, you can only see a few scattered corners in the south direction of the city.
It's June now, and there are indeed many people wearing Taoist robes on the street. Some people even wear Taoist robes and wave folding fans, looking nondescript.
Shi Xuan came to Shuijing Street in the south of the city and found a drugstore that seemed to be the largest and most popular. When he walked to the door, he saw three big characters similar to Wei style written on the door plaque - Tong Ren Tang. Shi Xuan was shocked immediately. Tong Ren Tang is really powerful.
, branches have opened to other worlds.
After entering the door, I went straight to the counter and saw that the shopkeeper was greeting the customers. It was a good time. I smiled at the apprentice at the counter, said hello, and told me several medicinal materials in the prescription. Although the apprentice saw that there were two kinds
It's a valuable medicinal material, but it's also available in relatively large quantities, so I didn't ask Shi Xuan much. He just grabbed it, wrapped it in oil paper and handed it to Shi Xuan: "Chenghui four or two or three coins."
Shi Xuan was secretly surprised at how expensive the medicinal materials were. These were just a few of them. Looking at it this way, he might only be able to prepare fifty or so medicinal materials. The medicines he bought each time could be used for about three days and six times.
If your soul has not entered the soul-strengthening period after half a year, you will be bankrupt. The Taoist priest who is poor in literature and rich in martial arts, and a prodigal man, does have a certain truth. Of course, martial arts practitioners do not have such magical and precious prescriptions, and ordinary martial arts practitioners
The prescriptions used to strengthen the body probably cost dozens of taels of silver a year, and the more precious ones cost about one or two hundred taels. This is also very scary. You must know that the small courtyard in Shixuan is only worth two to three hundred taels of silver.
Although he was surprised, he kept his face calm. He took out some scraps of silver and paid for it, then went out. Then he went to several medicinal material stores to get all the medicinal materials on the prescription. In this way, buying from separate stores can effectively prevent others from seeing the medicinal materials they purchased.
Prescriptions are precious, thus causing unnecessary trouble.
Then I went to the butcher shop and told the shopkeeper that I planned to treat relatives and friends to a dog meat feast, and asked the shopkeeper to send four live dogs to his small courtyard in the west of the city.
Shi Xuan returned to the small courtyard, meditated and adjusted his breath for a while. After regaining his composure, he went to the left wing and found three spare medicine jars. Then he chanted a mantra, mobilized the energy of the five elements of the body and the induction of heaven and earth, and cast a dust-removing spell.
, clean the medicine jar. Then divide it into three parts according to the last medicine, and put them in according to the weight of the medicine and the amount of water required. At this time, you cannot use the commonly used medicine jar, because no matter how you clean it, the commonly used one will
There is always some residual medicinal properties in the medicine jar, which is usually no problem, but now it is a prescription similar to alchemy, and a little bit of excess medicinal properties may lead to failure.
He took the medicine jar into the kitchen. There was a row of small stoves used by the old Taoist to make medicine. After putting them away, he found wood and lit it with the ignition technique. Shi Xuan began to feel a little tired. Alas, his soul was too weak. Although he was in the Qi-nourishing period,
It is possible to mobilize the energy of the five elements of the physical body to cast spells, but it will ultimately consume the power of the soul. Of course, the energy of the five elements of the physical body in the Qi-nourishing period is also the reason why Shi Xuan can cast spells with the soul in the body-building and soul-nourishing period.
Shi Xuan cheered up and did not dare to neglect. He made a good hand and recited the spell, and used the fire control technique. He carefully controlled the fire until half an hour passed. The most difficult part ahead was over. Now he only needed to keep the fire low.
Just wait for another two hours and it's done.
Only then did Shi Xuan let out a long breath, feeling dizzy all over. He quickly sat down cross-legged and exhaled, and it took him a while before he had the strength to move. The butcher shop owner Zheng Sunan brought two black, two yellow and four strips.
Shi Xuan's complexion returned to normal only when he saw the dog.
After tying up the four dogs, Shi Xuan fetched a bucket of well water from the small well and drank happily, then went into the house to sort out the old Taoist priest's belongings.
Shi Xuan entered Lao Dao's room for the first time since Lao Dao's death. The room was very tidy. Shi Xuan searched around. Apart from some clothes and commonly used items, there was just a gray package. These clothes were of no use to Shi Xuan.
Big, and the figure doesn't fit. If I change it, I won't be able to do needlework. It seems that the old man has some premonitions about his death, and everything has been received in the package.
Opening the package, there were three things inside, one of which was an ancient book "Gui Zhen Jing", which was the true biography obtained by the old Taoist and the method he had practiced before this body. However, for Shi Xuan, he had "Yu Yu from the Shangqing Dynasty".
"The True Transmission of Du'e De Tao Bao Lu" is a fundamental Dharma that directly points to the great Tao, so the practice methods in this sutra are not of much use. However, the Tao methods in "Bao Lu" are all derived from the fundamental Dharma, except for
Most of the magical powers that require external objects to be cultivated are Taoist techniques that can only be practiced in the Golden Elixir stage and after. There are more Taoist techniques that can be used in the Gui Zhenjing. Although they are all magic techniques, due to the limitations of the realm, the power
It's not big, but the technique is magical and always has various uses.
Shi Xuan thought that it was not very powerful, so he thought of a magical channel technique in "Baolu" that requires the use of external objects to practice, Taiyin Lung Yang Geng Gold Sword Qi. This magical power requires finding a piece of Geng Gold, and then using a secret method to absorb the Geng Gold Qi.
It is stored in the lungs, and the secret method is used day and night to finally take shape. It is said to be extremely powerful, and it does not require the time of making spells and chanting like casting a spell. It is extremely fast to use, and even the monks in the soul stage may not be able to block it.
Of course, whether you can hit it or not is another matter, because this magical power has a distance limit and a limit on the number of times. Of course, as you slowly warm up the sword energy in the future, the power and distance will become greater.
But just thinking about it, this magical power requires at least the out-of-body period to be practiced, because without subtle control over one's own soul, what can be used to control the Gengjin Qi, and without strong inner Qi power, what can the lungs be used for?
The sharpness to withstand the energy of Geng Metal. In addition, Geng Gold is so easy to find!! Of course, it’s okay if you don’t use Geng Gold. Taiyi True Gold, Western Gold Essence, Taibai Essence, these legends can be obtained through training.
All the artifacts of the Immortal Sword can be used, it’s just that the name of the magical power has been changed. Of course, these can also be encountered but not sought.
The strange thing is that Qingyunzi said in "Baolu" that you must practice this magical power and the other four magical powers before the golden elixir stage (shaoyin heart yang deficiency and excess real fire, Jueyin liver yang green wood transformation)
Jue, Taiyin, Spleen and Yang Mountain Zhenxing Gong, Shaoyin and Kidney Yin, Bingpo Shenguang), there will be great benefits when entering the golden elixir stage. What are the specific benefits? Qingyunzi has a clue.
Closer to home, the "Gui Zhen Jing" is also a fundamental part of the true transmission of Taoism. It also lacks the foundation for refining weapons and alchemy. It is really a pity.
Shi Xuan put the "Gui Zhen Jing" aside and suddenly thought that if he majored in "Bao Lu" in the future, wouldn't Xu Laodao's orthodoxy be lost? Although he and Xu Laodao had no actual master-disciple relationship, Xu Laodao
The old Taoist's care for Du Bai was also seen through the memory fragments. Since it is his own body now, he must be grateful and repay his kindness. It seems that he can only wait until he travels around the world to find another good man.
The tradition is passed on.
Shi Xuan looked at another thing. This was a stack of talismans and seals tied together. There were about ten of them. They were self-defense items prepared by Xu Laodao for his disciples in his last year. You must know that even if he enters the stage of nourishing qi and strengthening the soul, he can
Use spells, but the spells at this time require many steps and take a long time, so the talisman is often drawn in advance. At that time, only a spell or even a little soul power is needed to activate the talisman, and Xu Laodao, as a master,
The masters at the Qiao stage must have many more talismans left behind than Shi Xuan, a disciple.
Shi Xuan carefully checked the talismans. There were seventeen chapters in total. There were four of each of the four types: the invisible qi-containing talisman, the earth-absorbing talisman into armor, the air-inducing thunder talisman, and the golden light soul-breaking talisman. The other one was made of ancient
The talisman written in Yunzhuan (there are ancient thunder patterns and ancient Yunzhuan in "Baolu") - Taiyi Bang Tianlei, with thunder light looming on it, and the handwriting is simple and does not look like something that Xu Laodao can draw.
, either inherited when you got the true inheritance, or acquired through adventures while traveling.
The last thing was a mirror and a piece of paper that Lao Tao pasted on it. It said that this was obtained by Lao Tao from an abandoned temple in Laoshan, Huxi. This mirror fixed a hundred-year-old ghost in the temple for who knows how many times.
Ten years ago, Lao Dao passed by without knowing where he was. He moved the mirror and let the old ghost escape. After a good fight, Lao Dao almost died. In the end, he used one of the two Taiyi Thunder Talisman that he got when he met Zhenzhen to kill him.
That century old ghost, the mirror was also affected and shattered. Although Xu Laodao could not recognize the material of the mirror, he finally picked up the largest fragment of the mirror and made it into a mirror again, but it no longer had the previous power, and could not even be used anymore.
The arithmetic machine can only determine certain weak ghosts due to their natural supernatural powers.
However, it is precisely because the materials are so good that Xu Laodao plans to leave them to his disciples. He might not be able to re-train them into a magic weapon if he has the opportunity in the future. As mentioned before, there are various steps for casting spells before the golden elixir stage. Although as the level increases, there will be more steps.
It saves a lot of time in casting spells, but some people always find it slow to cast spells, so they come up with various alternative methods, such as talismans, seals, and magic weapons. Borrowing foreign objects to practice magical powers in Baolu can also be regarded as an alternative method.
A magic weapon is a magic weapon that is made with appropriate materials, appropriate restrictions, and time to refine. It is powerful and easy to use. It is the most popular thing among monks. Of course, it is also rare and unusual. Magical weapons are divided into four categories.
There are three levels: magic weapon, spiritual weapon, magic weapon, and spiritual treasure. To refine the magic weapon, you need to use the corresponding earth evil ban. When the magic weapon and the earth evil are perfectly integrated into the Tiangang ban, it will advance to a spiritual weapon. At this time, you can continue to refine the Tiangang ban.
The restrictions on magic weapons and spiritual treasures are called treasure bans and spiritual bans respectively. Generally speaking, magic weapons and spiritual weapons can be regarded as objects in the Qi training stage, while magic weapons and spiritual treasures are objects in the Yuan Shen period.
After Shi Xuan checked the relics left by the old Taoist, he put the scriptures close to his body and the talismans and seals in the hidden pockets in his belt and sleeves for easy access. Only the mirror was received in his own package. There are no other suitable materials now.
, there is no refining technique, and it’s no use thinking about it until you’re drooling.
Shi Xuan took a short rest, and it was time for the medicinal ingredients to be cooked.
