In the dark and quiet night, on the choppy sea water beside the pier, a rapid and loud cough suddenly sounded in the front cabin of a large wooden ship. Then the lights came on, and everyone on the ship woke up.
A young man dressed as a scholar walked out of the front cabin and came to the back cabin and knocked on the door. Not long after, an old man in tattered clothes walked out of the door carrying a suitcase and bag. The two only looked at each other, did not speak, and only exchanged glances.
Go to the front cabin.
In the forward cabin, where the lights were on, on a couch covered with thick bedding, a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, with a bloodless face, thin cheeks and bulging cheeks, was half lying and half sitting, wrapped in a blanket, and couldn't help coughing.
The old man in private clothes who came to the front cabin first took out a paper bag from the box. After unfolding it, there was a small amount of red powder inside. He put it under the young man's nose and let him inhale it. After the young man took two puffs, the frequency of his coughing decreased.
There was great relief, and only a slight cough would come out after more than ten breaths. The young scholar asked him: "Are you feeling comfortable?" The young man smiled and nodded: "Much better."
The old man in silk clothes breathed a sigh of relief, closed the medicine box, and said to the young scholar: "Mr. Liu, come out for a moment."
The two of them came outside the cabin, closed the door, and the old man in private clothes took out two black rhizomes of an unknown plant from the bag on his body, and told the young scribe Mr. Liu in a low voice: "Let me fry them."
A can of soup, let the young master drink it twice tonight."
Mr. Liu was a little surprised and whispered: "How come the amount is twice as much as before?"
The old man in silk clothes sighed: "The young master is getting weaker and weaker, and the amount of ginseng must be increased, otherwise... I'm afraid I won't be able to hold the boat to the island."
"Is the situation really that bad?"
"It's true. The young master is weak and cannot be replenished. Ordinary tonics are harmful to him but not beneficial. Although the cold-natured medicinal ginseng like Mingshen can barely keep him alive, after all, the cold-nature accumulates and accumulates in his body for a long time.
The other is a kind of danger. He himself is already extremely weak, not to mention the fatigue of traveling and traveling, which makes it even more..." At this point, the old man in hidden clothes shook his head, "I just said it conservatively, the situation will only get worse.
Oops.”
Mr. Liu's expression darkened when he heard this. At this moment, there was a sound of people moving on the roof of the cabin, and then a faint female voice floated down: "Someone is coming."

Then there was a faint sound of piercing the sky in the distant night sky. Mr. Liu looked towards the pier. After a few moments, he saw two black figures falling together, heading towards the ship.
A long leap came over. Just when Mr. Liu frowned, the faint female voice above said again: "Not an enemy."
Not long after, the two black figures had reached the edge of the pier. One after another, they jumped into the air, spread their arms, and looked like gulls. They flew more than ten feet in the wind, and then fell down one after another.
on board.
The lights on the boat were dim, but Mr. Liu had already seen their faces clearly, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Can you two bring the tonic?" The man who was left behind first took off his baggage, took out a box, and said proudly: "It's just a matter of digging into the bag."
Mr. Liu took the box and opened it with the old man in the clothes next to him. He saw a blood-red and black Ganoderma lucidum in it. The old man in the clothes came closer and smelled it, and his expression also changed: "I'm afraid the tonic properties of this Ganoderma are better than those of Ganoderma lucidum."
The ginseng is more than ten times stronger, and the blood is thicker. It can also remove stasis and dispel cold, and clear the cold roots buried by the ginseng."
Mr. Liu raised his head and asked, "Only one?"
The man who was left behind replied: "Senior Luo was the one who took the Ganoderma lucidum. He only gave us one. It seems there weren't many in the first place."
"One plant is enough." The old man in black clothes closed the box, "I will mix this plant with ginseng and grind it into pills. It will keep the young master healthy for at least a month." After that, he took the box back to the back cabin.
.
"Thank you, you two, please pick up the medicine."
Mr. Liu once again raised his hands to the two people who came.
The man who fell behind later bowed in return: "According to the Heavenly Master's previous instructions, we will not return to Tianjing, but will escort the young master for treatment and return to the capital."
The man who was left behind nodded: "I hope Mr. Liu will take care of our food and accommodation on the ship."
"I will make arrangements for the two heavenly guards."
Mr. Liu said.
The two people who came up from the dock were the two people who had sneaked into the Wuyang Sect that day, and together with the master of the Netherworld Ghost Palm, they attacked Mei Aoxue and others' second of the Nine Sword Heavenly Guards of Yujian Hall - "Kuai Dao Wuying" Zhou Jili
and "Falling Sword without Trace" Sun Lanxi. As for Mr. Liu, he is a court talent who is highly appreciated by the emperor and the Heavenly Master, Bachelor of Liuquan.
Today, Dayu is prosperous and prosperous, and its national power ranks first among the three kingdoms of Kyushu. However, the Emperor of Dayu has been keen on seeking the way to immortality many years ago, and he has been collecting gold, stone, heavenly materials, orchid and earth treasures to refine the elixir of immortality.
I don’t know whether it was the refining of Qi that consumed Yang Yuan, or the consumption of too many elixirs that damaged the foundation. Although Emperor Yu had many concubines in the harem, he had few heirs, and most of them died young. One of the seventh princes was named
Yao, who was young and smart, well-read and knowledgeable, was favored and appreciated by the emperor. He also fell ill a few years ago. He was weak and coughing constantly. All the famous doctors in the country could do nothing and could only watch him weaken and decline day by day.
Now that the Seventh Prince is ill, the Emperor's expectations for his favor are not as good as before. He only thinks that once he refines the elixir of heaven, he will live forever and be the king for ten thousand years. What's more, with the dragons and tigers and the numerous concubines at the moment, even if he becomes the emperor one day
Don't worry, there will always be healthy heirs to inherit the ceremony.
However, after the ministers made suggestions and the Queen Mother cried and remonstrated, one day during a visit, the Seventh Prince mentioned the story of father and son playing when they were young. The Emperor felt like licking a calf, and he sought various methods to cure the Seventh Prince's illness. Later.
When a medical officer mentioned that the owner of Golden Snake Island had been widely spread in the world about his miraculous doctor's skill in bringing the dead back to life, the emperor ordered Guiyi Division to investigate the seventh prince's illness.
After a series of twists and turns as they headed south, Bachelor Liu Quan, who is now the seventh prince's tutor and an important member of the Sky Patrol, escorted the seventh prince and his doctor to Golden Snake Island, accompanied by purple guards and masters from the Yujian Hall. There were also other people on board.
Thousands of fine weapons, countless jewels, gold and silver, as well as famous calligraphy and paintings, and several antiques and curios were given as medical expenses to the owner of Golden Snake Island.
On this day, the ship has entered the sea and headed straight for the Golden Snake Island. The white sails are raised and the sea is calm. Inside the cabin, Bachelor Liu Quan is playing chess with the seventh prince Zhao Yao. Outside the cabin, a group of purple-clad guards are playing cards for fun. The head of the guard on the cabin roof
"Iron claws are ruthless" Ying Hailan looked at the vast sea fog. The sailors, helmsmen, doctors and fire heads were all performing their duties, but the sharp knife was invisible. Zhou Jili was seasick and vomiting, lying on the couch with loss of appetite and no water or rice. Sun Lanxi was helping him peel the skin.
Order some dried fruits to satisfy your hunger and pass the time with small talk.
The two were chatting, and the topic couldn't help but fall on women. Zhou Jili still thought of Ying Hailan outside, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "This woman who practices martial arts has many quirks in her personality, and her behavior is confusing.
.Not to mention the heroine Ying on our ship, Brother Sun, do you remember Liu Shan from the Yunmo Sect at the Fairy Villa? His vulgar words and unbelievable actions were simply jaw-dropping. Later, news came out that she
It’s really amazing that she is a woman!”
Sun Lanxi heard this and said: "I just have a story to tell you."
Zhou Jili quickly said: "Don't tell me, you have told the story to change the subject several times. Once upon a time there was a mountain, and there was a temple on the mountain. There was a master in the temple who was telling stories to his apprentices."
Sun Lanxi smiled and said: "This time it's not a joke. However, this story is really many years ago. One day, my master and I were escorting goods for our employer. We passed by a temple and he told me about it. It was about a scholar who once was...
