Chapter six hundred and twentieth seventh to play medicine
The reason why a trick is a trick is because the trick is fake.
Fake things, no matter how real they are, are still fake.
It’s not that most people don’t know this, but their greed has blinded their reason, so they ignore the truth of the matter and believe everything they see and hear. Even though they know deep down in their hearts that this is a
The same goes for lies,
The trick of Shenxiansuo is indeed good.
Because this is no longer an ordinary trick, but contains the secret of Taoism.
Therefore, to perform such a trick, you must have some cultivation skills. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that such a trick will not be widely circulated.
The common people who had been watching the excitement now saw the elixir falling from the sky. No matter whether they were ordinary people or dignitaries, they all bent over and lay on the ground without caring about their image, and they were frantically searching for the fallen elixir on the ground.
It is strange to say that the elixirs that fell from the sky were obviously densely packed, but when they fell to the ground to look for them, there were only a few of them.
Some people found it and were very happy, but more people didn't find it and were sweating profusely.
"I'm afraid the real trick this old man wants to perform is not the magic rope, but to tease everyone. And the most clever thing is that he didn't encourage any common people to pick up the elixir. It was those people who were seduced by greed and willingly lay on the ground.
Those who picked up pill pills." Li Xiuyuan looked at all this.
in the eyes.
Looking around, he was the only one who was indifferent to the elixir.
Several subordinates around him were also very moved, but he pointed it out.
"Young master, this elixir is not necessarily fake. I'd better go pick up a few and bring them back. If it is real, wouldn't it mean that you have missed the chance of immortality?"
The bodyguard next to him was still excited. Seeing how crazy the others were, he couldn't hold back even with Li Xiuyuan's advice.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled: "What's fake is fake. No matter how tempting it is, it won't become true. If you are tempted, just pick it up. If you really pick up the elixir, you don't need to give it to me. You can keep it for yourself.
, see if you will become light and healthy after eating it, and become immortals?"
"This, this" the two escort chiefs looked hesitant, wanting to pick it up but not wanting to disobey the young master's wishes.
Finally, after hesitating for a while, I gave up.
Because it seems that all the elixirs falling from the sky have been picked up, and now it is too late even if you want to take action.
But at this moment, Li Xiuyuan was staring at the old man who was performing tricks.
But I saw that this old man had packed up his things at some point, carrying two large boxes and slowly walking through the crowd to leave, with a smile on his face, as if he was very proud of having fooled everyone.
But now everyone was busy picking up elixirs and didn't even notice the old man who performed tricks leaving.
Perhaps by the time they picked up the elixir, the old man had already disappeared without a trace.
"Follow me." Li Xiuyuan called out, then strode through the crowd to catch up.
The old man carrying the burden hummed a tune as he walked. He did not take the crowded roads, but chose the less crowded paths. He also shuttled left and right, and his whereabouts were uncertain. If ordinary people were following him, he would have lost his way long ago. He would have lost his way at all.
It's impossible to keep up with this old man.
But Li Xiuyuan was a little curious about this old man.
"This is not an ordinary magician. His pace and direction are in line with Taoist magic. It seems random, but in fact dozens of people may not be able to track him."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, stopped and said, "You guys wait for me here for a while, I'll be back as soon as I go."
"Yes, boss." Wu Xiang responded with a loud voice.
Li Xiuyuan took a step forward and cast the magic of shrinking the ground to an inch. Coupled with the wall penetration technique, he arrived at an alley in a few steps.
As soon as the old man who performed magic walked into this alley, he saw Li Xiuyuan walking towards him. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes narrowed and his short figure trembled slightly.
"My father-in-law is very good at performing tricks. If I read correctly the Immortal Cable just now, it is both a trick and a spell. It should be a combination of blindfolding and cloud pulling, but it has been simplified a lot. It can be performed without any Taoist skills.
Ordinary people can learn it after more than ten years of practice. It’s just that
I'm a little surprised that my father-in-law didn't ask anyone else for the reward for performing the magic, so why did he leave in a hurry?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "I saw my father-in-law's tricks and thought they were very exciting. I have to give him this reward."
After saying that, he took out a piece of silver and threw it towards the old man.
The old man stretched out his hand and took it. He said with a smile: "This young man is indeed an extraordinary person for being able to see through my tricks. But what I am performing is not a trick. I am just giving out pills in the name of magic to cure illnesses and save people. I want it."
It’s not a reward, what I want is the merit and good fortune of saving the world and the people.
"Young Master doesn't need my pills, so I accepted the money without any courtesy."
"Oh, the old man is actually a practitioner? What he seeks is merit and blessings? So the elixir is not useless?" Li Xiuyuan said with a bit of strangeness.
The old man smiled and said: "Of course, my pills are made from real mountain herbs. It can cure colds, bruises, and knife wounds. Although it cannot make you immortal, it can cure diseases and save people.
Moreover, the pills given are for poor people. If you don’t believe it, you can
Go back and see if those wealthy people can pick up a pill."
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but praise after hearing this: "The old man has such a kind heart. For wealthy people, ordinary injuries can be cured by a doctor, but for the poor people, it is no less than a disaster. The old man's injuries are no less than a disaster."
By giving alms in this way, Meidanwan can save a family at a critical moment.
For poor people, this is a matter of immeasurable merit, I admire you, I admire you."
Hearing what the old man said, he couldn't help but feel a little in awe.
What is a virtuous person? This is a virtuous person.
"I don't dare to take it, I don't take it. It's just for practice, and it's selfish." The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile, looking humble and polite.
"If this young master has nothing else to do, I will leave first. The Yao Lao'er in the capital has finished giving alms. Now I have to go back to the mountains to collect medicine and refine medicine. After preparations are made, I will continue to give alms.
The elixir can cure diseases and save lives."
After saying that, he continued to carry the burden and prepared to turn around and leave.
Li Xiuyuan looked at him deeply at this moment and said slowly: "Why should we rush to leave so soon after meeting old friends, Polygonum multiflorum essence?"
"Fuck you uncle Li Xiuyuan, you can still recognize me after I've become like this?"
"Wow~!"
The old man who had just picked up the load immediately dropped the load on the ground without saying a word, and then it sank into the ground with a whoosh and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"You are so young, I fooled you right away."
Li Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head, then took steps to catch up.
He was not sure that this old man was the Polygonum multiflorum spirit that he had met in Wangchuan Mountain. He just felt that he looked somewhat similar. Although his appearance had completely changed and his clothes and temperament had become completely different from before, his figure had not changed.
And the most important thing is that he smelled a familiar smell from the elixir that fell before.
Polygonum multiflorum spirit's heart was pounding at this moment. He thought that Li Xiuyuan was very busy in the south controlling the ghosts and gods in all directions. He would not encounter him again when he went to the north to practice. Who knew that he would bump into this person just a few days after he came to the capital to apply medicine?
evil star,
"Damn it, how did this guy recognize me? My appearance is completely different from before. In order to cover up my aura, I even thought that the doctor had been walking around the world for several years in order to completely blind me with my mortal aura.
The smell of Polygonum multiflorum on my body, with my current ability to change, unless it is
Only when a Bodhisattva descends to earth can he discern clearly, how could Li Xiuyuan see through it?"
In an abandoned house in the capital, an old man's head popped up from the soil. He looked around, and when he saw no one, he rushed out with relief.
"No, I have to leave the capital immediately. I still owe him some karma. If he catches me again and chops me into two pieces, my hope of becoming an immortal in this life will be gone. I have to wait at least to repay that karma.
Let’s talk about it after I become an immortal.”
Polygonum multiflorum spirit was a little frightened. He didn't even want two boxes of luggage and was ready to leave here secretly.
However, when he had only taken a few steps, his hairs suddenly stood on end, and he froze on the spot. He opened his eyes and pointed tremblingly at the cracked courtyard wall.
"Your magic is really powerful. You can escape from the south of the city to the north of the city in one breath. Beyond that is the imperial city. If it weren't for the imperial city blocking you, you would probably be able to escape from the capital in one breath. You are truly worthy of becoming an immortal.
Spirits, once a spirit like you attains enlightenment and becomes an immortal, your abilities will be far better than
An ordinary immortal."
"That's right, God is fair. Man is the first of all spirits. He is born with a human body. To become an immortal saves at least five hundred years of Taoism compared to being a spirit. However, as a plant spirit, you need to develop your spiritual wisdom.
After experiencing three tribulations between heaven, earth and man, it took five hundred years to cultivate the human form and then become an immortal. However, the more I experienced,
His abilities will become even more powerful."
Li Xiuyuan walked over from the cracked courtyard wall, stroking his hands and smiling.
After he entered the courtyard, the cracked courtyard wall behind him quickly closed again.
"Wall-penetrating magic? When did you learn magic?" Polygonum multiflorum spirit almost jumped out of fright.
When a saint knows magic, it is no less than a tiger growing wings or a dragon running into the sea.
Li Xiuyuan said: "It's not a wall-penetrating technique, it's a mountain-opening technique. What's in front of me is not to mention a wall, even a mountain has to split to make way for me. I haven't seen me for more than two years. I have experienced some things, and some things have happened."
Changes, it shouldn’t be surprising that I learned spells.”
"Although your appearance has changed, my appearance has not changed. You may not have found me or recognized me when I was watching you perform the Immortal Cable before, but you should have recognized me before. Are we meeting old acquaintances again?"
Shouldn’t we get together?”
Polygonum multiflorum spirit said: "Ghosts want to get together with you, you evil star, I don't want to meet you again in my life. If it weren't for the ghosts and gods under your command in the south, I was afraid of being discovered by you. Otherwise, how could I come to this north?"
Come on, hurry up and act like I don’t know you."
He has not forgotten the fear of being pressed on the chopping board by Li Xiuyuan two years ago, and he was considering which piece to chop.
"Oh, it's rare to see an old acquaintance. Don't be so cold. The friendship between us can't be made clear in just a few words. You left in a hurry that day, and I haven't thanked my father for your life-saving grace.
Moreover, the fairy grass you left behind has helped me many times, so I can meet you today. I should
It's time to host a banquet to entertain you." Li Xiuyuan said.
"What are you treating me to? Do you want to have a Polygonum multiflorum banquet again? You must be thinking of catching me back to make soup and slice it." Polygonum multiflorum spirit said with a horrified look on his face.
Li Xiuyuan stopped again and again: "Quit it, quit it, I haven't drank chicken soup for a long time, and I rarely eat or drink ordinary wine and meat. Now I have changed to a vegetarian diet."
Polygonum multiflorum essence was so frightened that she ran away: "You can't lie to me, I'm a vegetarian."
Before Li Xiuyuan could speak, the Polygonum multiflorum essence disappeared from the place again.
Another escape technique.
"It seems that what happened last time cannot be explained clearly in a few words." Li Xiuyuan touched his chin. When he saw that the Polygonum multiflorum spirit was scared away, he stopped chasing it to avoid further misunderstanding.
He caught up with him just to say hello and express his gratitude to him.
Because the roots left behind by Polygonum multiflorum essence that day indeed saved myself and the people around me many times.
