Although at her age she does not need to rely on elixir to extend her life, she has heard of this elixir.
"No, it's not as simple as Life-Extending Pill, it means that the whole person can be hundreds of years younger, just like the legendary Phoenix Nirvana." Lin Xiu corrected.
Mu Hanyan's eyes lit up. There are pills like life-extending pills in the Holy Court Continent and God's Continent. They extend life by stimulating the potential of life. For example, the seven-treasure life-extending pill that Ye Yi'an prepared for himself kind.
Although this kind of elixir can prolong life, it can't prevent the natural aging of the thigh. The more times the potential is stimulated, the older it will be, just like Ye Yi'an, because of the continuous aging of the body, it is obvious that there is a ninth-level god priest. However, it is difficult to display it, and it is basically impossible to continue to improve the cultivation base. Once the life potential is exhausted, death will undoubtedly occur.
According to Lin Xiu, Feng Nirvana does not rely on stimulating the potential of life to prolong life, but is hundreds of years younger like Phoenix Nirvana, which means that the body functions are better than before, and it is easier to cultivate. It is naturally easier to extend one's lifespan by improving one's body. As long as one's cultivation base can be continuously improved, the extension of one's lifespan is almost unlimited.
Of course, due to the limitation of talent, you will eventually encounter a bottleneck that you cannot break through. It is impossible to be truly infinite, but it is much better than taking the life extension pill to grow old and wait for death every day.
Mu Hanyan thought of Ye Yi'an naturally, and was very excited. In order to save the little auspicious beast last time, Ye Yi'an used the Life-Saving Seven Treasure Life-Extending Pill. She has always felt guilty and wanted to help him extend his life, but she couldn't find a suitable way. If she had this Phoenix Nirvana Pill, not only It can prolong his life for a hundred years, and it can also help him recover his body functions. Maybe he can break through the bottleneck of cultivation, and once his strength breaks through the bottleneck, his life span can be extended for another period.
Shen Yuhe and the others also showed surprise. They obviously also thought of the difference between this Phoenix Nirvana Pill and the general Life-Extending Pill, and knew what it meant.
"Now you understand, our Gu family can have today's status and reputation, relying on Feng Nie Dan. Unfortunately, since your uncle passed away, your grandfather couldn't afford to be sick. Later, the illness was cured, but he was in a trance , There were several mistakes in refining Feng Nie Dan for others, and the family savings were all lost. I heard that even the people who came to ask for it suffered heavy losses.
Once or twice is enough, once more, no one will come to ask your grandfather to make alchemy. Those industries of the Gu family seem to be booming, but in fact, others are helping your grandfather face, otherwise, relying on the strength of the Gu family, How can you be qualified to compete with other priest families for business? Now you don’t need your grandfather, and naturally no one will give you face. Naturally, those industries can’t make money. After a few years of losses, it seems that they can’t continue to operate, so they can only sell Lose. "Lin Xiu continued.
"So that's what happened, but Grandpa failed in alchemy, so we just need to pay. What did they lose?" At this moment, Shen Yuhe finally understood, but asked with some doubts.
"I'm not too sure about this. I've heard people say it. You know I don't care much about family affairs, so I don't want to ask too many questions." Lin Xiu said.
"It's not easy. The ingredients needed for such a panacea must be extremely rare, and the Gu family probably doesn't have all the ingredients. I beg your grandfather's alchemists to prepare some by themselves. Once the alchemy fails, they will of course suffer heavy losses. You don’t say anything, but you must still have resentment in your heart, and if you do it too many times, no one will dare to ask your grandpa for help.” Mu Hanyan helped explain.
When she was in Longyan College, she also helped others to make pills, so she knew some rules. If all the medicinal materials are provided by the alchemist himself, the price of the elixir is the highest. If both parties provide some medicinal materials, the price will be nearly one-third cheaper. If the other party provides all the medicinal materials, the price will be lower after refining. It is just the cost of alchemy That's all, but if it fails, unless there is an agreement, it will lose some money.
Patriarch Gu obviously chose the second option. He would make less money, not need to bother to collect medicinal herbs, and the risk would be lower. However, if he failed a few times, no one would dare to ask him for help.
"Well, I think it should be the case. I heard that those medicinal materials are really hard to find, and they are not cheap." Lin Xiu nodded and said.
"Then how is grandpa doing now?" Shen Yuhe asked worriedly.
"Your grandfather has suffered setbacks one after another, and his health is getting worse day by day. If this continues, I'm afraid he won't last long." Lin Xiu hesitated for a moment, then wiped her eyes and said.
"What?" Shen Yuhe was startled. Since she was a child, her grandfather loved her very much. Even though she has been staying in Huayu City all these years, her grandfather still asks someone to bring her some belongings from time to time. It should be because she knows that the life of Huayu Temple is difficult and fears that she will suffer.
It was fine if he didn't know the plight of the Gu family before, but now he knows that even if the Gu family is in danger, grandpa still has not forgotten her, and still cares about her as before.
"I'm going to meet grandpa." Shen Yuhe held back tears and walked towards grandpa's yard.
"Your grandpa is discussing something with some old friends, so let's go over after dinner." Lin Xiu persuaded.
"No, I'm going to see grandpa now." Shen Yuhe didn't want to wait any longer, so she quickened her pace and walked forward.
Mu Hanyan and the others were full of curiosity about Feng Nie Dan, so they also followed.
Seeing that Lin Xiu couldn't persuade her, she could only follow behind, so as not to run into Zhu Yulan again and make trouble.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the old courtyard deep in the valley house, and they were stopped by two guards as soon as they entered the door.
Knowing that grandpa had business to discuss with others, Shen Yuhe didn't force his way in, and stood obediently outside the door, but faintly heard the voice of argument inside, and after hearing the content of the voice inside, his complexion gradually changed.
"Steward Wan, don't bully people too much. Although my Gu family is not as good as before, I can definitely be humiliated." An old man with a haggard face said angrily. It was the head of the Gu family, Gu Qingyang.
"Patriarch Gu, it's a bit exaggerated for you to say that. My Long family is the number one priest family in Tianyang City. Mr. Wu Cuo is the son of the chief priest, and now he is the praying priest of the Tianyang Temple. Isn't it worthy of your granddaughter? , if you really want to talk about it in detail, it is your granddaughter Gao Pan." The old man with a thin face and a somewhat gloomy face said with a smile.
"Steward Wan, if the Long family came to propose marriage sincerely, I would accept even my Gu family's high profile, but you want Yuhe to be a concubine. What do you think of my Gu family?" Gu Qingyang looked at the other party with almost To spew fire.
