“No need for that. Too much of this kind of medicine will cause endless trouble.
In fact, they have already benefited from my blessing. If I am not mistaken, Li Yue was able to marry into a first-rank official family in the dynasty because the guardian monks in the dynasty knew of my existence.
Therefore, various opportunities allowed Li Yue to enter the ranks of high-ranking officials in the dynasty. Otherwise, with her background as a country woman, how could she have met Fang Wende by such a coincidence
They now have gold and power, and have reached an extreme. If they want more, they would like to become the emperor!
Rise and fall is the way of nature, and the same goes for life span.
I only gave him four pills because they are my third brother's children and my two closest descendants.
There are two extra coins, and it depends on how they distribute them. If they distribute them well, the family can prosper for another 60 years. If they distribute them poorly, it will cause disputes among the descendants, or even lead to enmity.
I cannot protect them generation after generation. I am not the only one with a background of immortal cultivators in the dynasty. If I show up, they will only use my name to cause trouble.
If they mess with someone who also has a cultivation background in the future, will I have to fight with him
Heaven's Way, Heaven's Way, Heaven's Way, you can borrow it to the best of your ability, but you cannot violate it! "
Li Yan explained a few more words this time, and Zhao Min and Zi Kun nodded silently.
Immortals and mortals have different paths, not just in terms of ability, but in fact they are completely different paths. Although cultivating immortals is to go against the will of heaven, that is one's own doing, not imposed by others.
"Since you're here, I'll give them something else!"
After saying that, Li Yan waved his sleeves, and countless starlights invisible to the naked eye fell like raindrops into the village below.
These light spots entered the body of every member of the Li family as they floated, but they were all completely unaware and didn't feel anything at all.
"Uncle Guo Xin, Li Yu, Li Shan... your descendants will have longer lifespans. This can be considered as a bond between me and this place!"
Familiar faces that never aged flashed before Li Yan's eyes one by one, and he thought silently in his heart.
These light spots will slowly cleanse the muscles and bones of everyone here. Although the effect will not be immediate, as time goes by, the bodies of these Li family members will become stronger and stronger.
Although it is not as good as the bottle of elixir he gave to Li Yue, it should be possible to increase her lifespan by five or ten years in the future.
This will fundamentally change their flesh, blood, and bones, and their offspring will also benefit from it. However, this power will become weaker and weaker after three generations.
"There is a person here who has spiritual roots. Why don't you take him with you to start the cultivation journey?"
Zhao Min scanned the area below with her spiritual sense. She looked in one direction and Li Yan shook his head.
“I have just investigated carefully. He has mixed spiritual roots just like me. This may be the qualification of the Li bloodline.
But my skills are not suitable for him. If he embarks on the path to immortality, he will only struggle at the lowest level.
It will be difficult to establish a foundation a hundred years from now, and I will feel even more unwilling. It is better to know nothing now and live a fulfilling life."
Li Yan knew who Zhao Min was talking about. Li Yan noticed the boy who was about ten years old at the beginning.
Li Yan felt the blood of Aunt Sanpang from him, the fat woman who liked to take off Li Wenwu's pants when he was a child.
After careful investigation, Li Yan discovered that the boy also had mixed spiritual roots, and they were not the spiritual roots that the Five Immortal Sect wanted. The five elements were chaotic, and they were truly the worst spiritual roots.
If such a person embarks on the path to immortality, unless he has a heaven-defying opportunity, otherwise, there is a 99% chance that he will be bullied and his life will only become more miserable.
After Zhao Min discovered the boy, she investigated him carefully. After all, every sect is constantly looking for suitable disciples.
She also knew about Li Yan's mixed spiritual roots. Over the years, she had never asked Li Yan about it, but she had long known that the technique Li Yan practiced was very special, so she asked.
She could see that Li Yan was emotionally involved with the Li clan members, but she didn't know that the Five Immortal Sect's requirements for mixed spiritual roots were even more stringent. Since Li Yan said no, she wouldn't say anything more.
After doing all this, Li Yan no longer looked down.
"Let's go back to the sect!"
As Li Yan spoke, his figure soared into the sky, and Zhao Min and Zi Kun followed closely with their sleeves fluttering.
Zhao Min quickly caught up with Li Yan. Looking at Li Yan's back, she knew that Li Yan would probably never return to the small mountain village again, and would not even want to mention it again.
In a large, bright and clean room in the old house of the Li family, Li Yue was sitting in a large wooden chair, and an octogenarian was sitting on one side of her.
The old man was wearing a red robe, his white hair was combed smooth and neat, he had three long beards under his chin, his face was fair, and there was an aura of majesty between his brows, which was the result of holding a high position for a long time.
At this time, the old man was looking at Li Yue with a puzzled look. When he was having dinner in the front hall before, he noticed that this sister looked very good today, and her face was surprisingly rosy.
He also discovered that Li Yue seemed to be worried today. Although Li Yue kept her expression normal, as her brother, the old man still noticed something different.
After dinner, Li Yue really called him here and immediately dismissed all the servants, even Huaixiang was called out.
This made him very strange, as it seemed that nothing had happened to his brother-in-law in the court recently and he seemed to be living a very carefree life.
The old man in red robe is Li Wei’s second son—Li Jie.
"Third sister, what's up? Is it a letter from your brother-in-law?"
Li Jie looked at Li Yue in confusion.
Li Yue seemed to be thinking about something, until Li Jie spoke, she raised her head in shock.
Her gaze gradually shifted from distracted to focused, and then she gently shook her head.
"Second brother, do you still remember the fifth uncle that Dad and the others talked about?"
Li Jie was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that Li Yue would talk about such a topic.
However, as long as nothing happened to his brother-in-law, he would be relieved, because his backer was this brother-in-law.
"What's wrong? It is said that the fifth uncle once served as an official in the court, and later came to the mountain village with two daughters of officials in the court. But after we served as officials in the court together, at the request of my father and others, we checked all the official files in the court, but there was no information about the two daughters.
It was only discovered that the fifth uncle had eaten imperial food at Qingshanai for several years, but later, with a major change, he disappeared along with the marshal and military advisor who were stationed there at the time.
The next time he appeared was when my eldest brother was only a few years old. However, what my fifth uncle said about him being transferred away was completely false.
Could it be that the third sister found out some information about the fifth uncle? This was what my grandparents wanted to know most.
But now they are gone, no matter whether the news is good or bad, you don’t have to hide it and worry about them. "
After Li Jie breathed a sigh of relief, he remembered what he had heard about his fifth uncle, whom he had never met.
"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about another legend, which you also know!"
Li Yue waved her hand, and Li Jie was stunned. It turned out that his sister had news about his fifth uncle. But then he thought of something and his face changed.
"You mean the villagers say that Uncle Five is an immortal? Have you found out any information about that?"
Li Jie couldn't help but become energetic.
The legend of Li Yan becoming an immortal has a long history in the village. Many people have talked about the miraculous skills Li Yan had when he treated the villagers.
In particular, Li Wei's lame leg was healed perfectly, and Li Chang and his wife, and Li Wei and his wife actually lived for so long in the end. This is something that even the top masters of internal martial arts find extremely difficult to achieve.
Especially after Li Yue and Li Jie became officials in the court, they realized the huge harm that such a situation would bring.
Many people want to live forever, even the old emperor is full of desire for immortality.
My parents' unique bodies might be used by some evil martial artists to make elixirs.
But in their impression, no martial artist has ever come to the small mountain village, as if this place had been forgotten.
Logically speaking, people in the small mountain village have to go into the city frequently, so what happened here cannot possibly not spread out, but in the end, nothing happened, as if someone was secretly protecting the small mountain village.
"Back then, I asked you to investigate the military data in Qingshan Pass. You once found a portrait of your fifth uncle in the army. Where is that portrait?"
Li Yue did not answer Li Jie's words, but continued to ask. After Li Jie thought about it, he spoke.
"My grandmother treasured the portrait and hid it away, and I never saw it again.
I wonder if Daddy put the portrait into the grave when he buried Grandma. Daddy put Grandma into the coffin himself and didn’t allow anyone else to touch it!
Li Yue's eyes immediately showed disappointment. After her eldest brother passed away, the place was handed over to her second brother to take care of. She thought that her second brother could find the portrait obtained in the army.
"What happened, Third Sister?"
Li Jie was a little anxious.
Li Yue took a deep breath and then whispered softly to Li Jie. After a few breaths, Li Jie's exclamation was heard in the room.
"What, you saw Uncle Wu?"
Li Yue looked at Li Jie calmly, and Li Jie immediately realized that he had lost his composure.
Then, Li Yue narrated again...
Another half cup of tea passed. Li Jie stared at the emerald green porcelain bottle in Li Yue's hand in disbelief. He swallowed and spoke in a dry voice.
"This is the elixir in your hand. Could it be given by your fifth uncle? Is your illness completely cured?"
“This bottle of medicine was indeed given by him. Although there is no portrait for comparison, when I think about it now, I can feel the feeling he gave me. It is extremely familiar, like the familiarity of a family member.
I am completely cured of my illness, of that I am sure!"
Li Yue looked at the greed that flashed in Li Jie's eyes and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This second brother was somewhat treacherous by nature. Li Yue liked the eldest brother Li Wenwu more.
Li Wenwu was a man of integrity who was willing to give up wealth and glory for the sake of filial piety.
But Li Jie's character is also a necessary condition for him to be successful in officialdom. Honest people have died countless times.
Therefore, she usually takes what she says to Li Jie with a pinch of salt.
If Li Jie knew that her fifth uncle just waved to her, she would feel like she was back to the age of 24 or 25.
That was the peak of a person's life. I wonder what he would think.
"Are you sure it's him?"
Li Jie was a little excited.
Li Yue looked at Li Jie's expression and couldn't help but frown.
"Although you don't have a portrait of your fifth uncle, I think it should be correct. I have been to that old house and there are still freshly burned incense ashes in the incense burner.
Only you and I have the key to that door. Let me ask you, have you ever burned incense today?"
"No!"
Li Jie shook his head repeatedly.
"That's it. I didn't go in today either, and the door was never opened!!"
"That's right, it must be him. Where is Fifth Uncle? He should not have left yet, right? Why doesn't he show up to meet his nephews and nieces? We are his closest blood relatives!"
Li Jie's face was trembling, and he suddenly stood up!
