Calculating that he only had three days left to live, Nanfeng lowered his head and sat in silence without saying a word.
Sometimes there is no obvious difference between calmness and numbness. At this moment, he can no longer tell whether he is calm or numb, or just confused.
"Senior Brother Tiande, I don't know your birth date. Can you use the seven-star method to extend your life?" Tianqizi looked at Tiandezi.
Tian Dezi frowned upon hearing this, and after pondering for a long time, he whispered, "You can borrow the blood from your fingertips and give it a try."
"No need." Nanfeng waved his hand.
"Taiqing Sect can bring order to things, and you should be the first to do so. We..."
"It's really not necessary. I appreciate your kindness." Nanfeng interrupted Tianqizi and looked up at everyone, "To be honest, I have several volumes of the Turtle Shell Book in my hand, and one of them happens to contain the method of extending life. .”
Everyone felt relieved when they heard this, and all of them looked happy.
Only Tianqizi didn't believe it and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this true?"
Nanfeng nodded, "Seriously, it's just that I haven't studied or thought about it before." After saying this, he stood up straight and said goodbye, "Without further delay, I will rush to Fengming Mountain immediately and ask Uncle Wang to diagnose and treat me. He practiced the Yang-Returning Pill, so it shouldn't be difficult to counteract the medicine's power."
After Nanfeng finished speaking, he turned around and started walking.
"Wait a minute." Tianqizi stopped him, "How long will it take?"
Nan Feng knew that Tian Qi Zi was asking him how long he had left, so he could only hold out three fingers to Tian Qi Zi, "Don't worry, I'm sorry. Uncle Wang just can't cure me, but he can extend my life for a few days. Then I can recommend it." Study the heavenly book and save yourself."
Tianqizi was still worried, "I'll go with you."
Nanfeng shook his head, "You are injured and can't go quickly. Time is tight. You have to seize the day. If you really can't afford to delay, I'll leave now."
Hearing Nanfeng's words, Tianqizi was still worried. Seeing him like this, Tiandezi said to Nanfeng, "You go now. If you fail, come back immediately. We will start preparations now. The Taiqing Sect is willing to work with you in the same boat. "
"Thank you Master Tiande, I'll leave first." After Nanfeng said this, he walked to the door and opened the palace door.
"Nanfeng, take care of yourself." Tianmingzi said from a distance.
"You keep the Immortal Book with me for now, and I'll take a look at it when I get back." Nanfeng glanced at Tianmingzi, then withdrew his gaze and stepped out.
By the time Tian Dezi and others followed out, Nan Feng had disappeared.
At this moment, Nanfeng's heart is still blank. What he said before was just to comfort Tianqizi and others. The Turtle Shell Heavenly Book is the general outline of all laws. If one understands it thoroughly, it is natural to enjoy immortality. However, there is nothing in the Heavenly Book. There is a clear record of the life-extending spell. The reason why he said this was just because he didn't want Tianqizi and others to feel guilty and blame themselves. After all, he ended up like this just to turn the tide.
At this time, the sun has risen, illuminating the earth, but Nanfeng's heart is filled with darkness. He does not think there is any way to extend his life. What he wants to do most at this moment is to be alone.
Worried that Tianqizi and others would follow behind, he didn't dare to stop. He walked for more than 300 miles in a row, and when he looked back, he saw no one's aura and complexion, so he stopped at the top of a mountain peak.
After standing still, he sat down against the rocks, took a deep breath, and calmed his emotions.
Nanfeng is open-minded by nature and does not panic when things happen. No matter how bad the situation is, he will not lose control. But at this time, he still cannot calm down. This is no longer a matter of life and death. This is a direct confrontation between life and death with no room for maneuver, and It came so suddenly that no one could face it calmly.
Even though I know I should calm down as soon as possible, I still can't calm down, my heart is up and down, and my thoughts are full of distractions.
At a glance, I found a stream in the mountain stream on the west side, so I rushed over to it, drank some water from the stream, washed my face, and leaned over to take a few sips. The water from the stream was cool, and it went into my mouth and throat, which made me feel much more comfortable.
Finding it effective, I drank a few more sips and found a cool, dry place to sit down.
After regaining consciousness and calmness, I could calm down and think. Naturally, the first thing I thought about was how to save my life.
First of all, it is certain that Uncle Wang cannot eliminate the power of the Huanyang Pill. It is true that the Huanyang Pill was tempered by Uncle Wang, but the Huanyang Pill takes effect quickly. At this time, the effect has been completely dissipated, and it has affected his meridians, lungs, and heart, as well as his breathing and heartbeat. It was fixed in the state it was in when the borrowing method was used. The big mistake had been made and no one could change it.
Another way is to abolish his cultivation. If you think about it carefully, this road will not work, because what he has changed now is not only his cultivation, but also his breathing, heartbeat, and normal functions of the lungs. Even if he abolishes his cultivation, these It will not change. In other words, even if you give up your cultivation, you will not be able to change other changes caused by borrowing the law.
The same is true for consummating the marriage with Zhuge Chanjuan, and the result is nothing more than self-destruction.
Now there is only one last way left, which is to study the Heavenly Book. This is also a dead end. The reason why he has never studied the Heavenly Book before is because the Heavenly Book is too profound. It will not be easy to study it thoroughly. If he had obtained it back then, The Book of Heaven immediately hid and pondered over it. At this time, I am afraid that even Taixuan has not been admitted. There are only three days left to live. Trying to understand the Book of Heaven within three days is nothing more than a dream.
After calming down and thinking about every possibility, I finally came to the conclusion that there was no way to save the situation and death was inevitable.
After getting the result, Nanfeng calmed down. Yangshou is the limit of lifespan that a person can reach without any illness. Most people die before their Yangshou is over, either due to unexpected disasters, unintentional disasters, or terminal illnesses. The problem he faced at this time was not the influence of these external forces, but a problem with Yang Shou itself. There was no way to resolve this situation.
Accept your fate. When it is impossible not to accept your fate, you can only accept your fate.
Although he was not so willing to admit it, he still accepted his fate. Fortunately, he did not die suddenly and suddenly. There were still three days left, and there was still time to explain the funeral arrangements.
Thinking about it carefully, there is nothing to explain in the aftermath. His biggest wish these years has been to clear the grievances of Tian Yuanzi and Li Luoxue, and now he has accomplished it.
He has no relatives and only a few friends, but they are well settled. The eighth master who raised him single-handedly can give him his freedom. The ones who are most reluctant to part with him are Zhuge Chanjuan and Yuan Anning.
Now that he is about to die, even if he doesn't want to let go, he has to give up. Fortunately, he and the two of them are not actually married. Even if he dies, the two of them can find a good son-in-law and a good place to stay.
How to say goodbye to the two of them was a difficult problem. After thinking about it for half an hour, Nanfeng finally came up with an idea. He stood up straight, used Earth Escape again, and headed towards Fengming Mountain.
Before noon, Nanfeng returned to the front of Fengming Mountain. Since the previous miasma-avoiding sachet was given to Hou Shulin, he could only drop it from the front of the mountain.
He had experienced two bloody battles before. Now his clothes were torn and his body was covered in blood. Seeing him arrive, everyone waiting for medical treatment at the foot of the mountain peeped and looked at him.
Nanfeng was just about to go up the mountain when he glanced at the barbarian sent by the Orc Valley to look after Uncle Wang's home and was washing clothes outside the house, so he walked over.
The barbarian recognized Nanfeng and when he saw him coming, he stood up to greet him.
Nanfeng exchanged a few words with the barbarian, took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter, and borrowed his carrier pigeon to send to the Orc Valley.
The Orc Valley family has a huge business and it is impossible to move just because they want it. He had been separated from Fatty and Zhuge Chanjuan for only three or four days, and the two of them should still be in the Orc Valley at this time.
The homing pigeons were released, and the south wind came to the mountainside courtyard.
Uncle Wang was having lunch in his room. When he saw Nanfeng push the door open and come in, he put down his bowls and chopsticks and stood up.
"Where is she?" Nanfeng stepped forward.
"He lost too much blood and is still sleeping in the secret room." Uncle Wang said casually.
"When can we leave?" Nanfeng asked.
Uncle Wang did not answer Nanfeng's question, but frowned and looked him up and down. When he came closer, he stretched out his hand and said, "I will take your pulse with you."
Nanfeng knew what Uncle Wang had discovered. Although Uncle Wang was not a member of the Taoist sect, he was the Qihuang Sage, so he could naturally detect the deathly look on his face.
Nanfeng stretched out his hand, and Uncle Wang placed two fingers on his left hand.
After counting the left pulse and then the right pulse, he slowly retracted his hand and said, "Your heartbeat is abnormally fast, which involves the meridians of the lungs and organs."
Nan Feng nodded.
"Is this caused by the Xuanqi Kung Fu you practice?" Uncle Wang asked doubtfully.
Nanfeng shook his head.
Uncle Wang frowned suddenly when he saw this, and stretched out his hand to feel his pulse again. After taking the pulse, he opened his eyelids, lifted his temples, and looked at the roots of his hair.
Although Uncle Wang is the Qihuang Sage, he has never seen such a strange situation as Nanfeng. Many appearances are contradictory and it is difficult to distinguish the crux.
"Is there any way to slow down my heartbeat?" Nan Feng was lucky.
Uncle Wang did not answer, but once again checked his pulse. After half a stick of incense, he withdrew his hand and shook his head, "The blood energy travels through the limbs and bones, and affects the whole body at a stroke. If the heartbeat slows down, the brain and heart will become weak and exhausted."
Nanfeng didn't have high hopes, so he wasn't surprised when he heard what Uncle Wang said. He picked up the teapot and took a few sips, "Can you cover up the deathly look on my face?"
"What happened? Where did you go before?" Uncle Wang asked eagerly.
"It's hard to explain in words. In your opinion, how many days do I have left to live?" Nanfeng put down the teapot.
After all, Uncle Wang was not an ordinary person. Even though he was surprised, he did not ask any questions. After thinking deeply, he stretched out three fingers.
Nan Feng nodded, "Don't let others know. If you need me to do anything for you, please tell me immediately. If you tell me too late, I will default on it."
Uncle Wang shook his head and walked towards the east room. After a while, he took out a pill and said, "It's of no use. It can only make you look normal."
Nanfeng didn't say anything, reached out to take it, opened his mouth and ate.
"How long do we have to wait?" Nanfeng pointed to the secret room.
Uncle Wang knew that Nan Feng was eager to leave, so he walked towards the secret room, "I'll wake her up right now."
Nanfeng nodded, took out the talisman drawing utensil from his arms, and quickly wrote. Uncle Wang didn't need him to do anything at the moment, but favors always had to be repaid. Previously, Uncle Wang only got the talisman on the ninth piece of tortoise shell. Text, what he drew this time was the pattern on the ninth tortoise shell.
After the pattern drawing is completed, take two more pieces of talisman paper and write down all the patterns and words on the sixth piece of tortoise shell silently.
Looking back, he saw that Uncle Wang was still removing the acupuncture needles from Yuan Anning's face, so he took two more pieces of talisman paper, wrote down the words and patterns on the fifth piece of tortoise shell, folded them neatly, and put them in his arms.
After doing this, Uncle Wang finished his work and walked out of the secret room, "I have taken the awakening medicine. I will wake up in a while."
Nanfeng nodded and handed the three talisman papers to Uncle Wang, "This is a complete heavenly book. This piece and the previous text with you can also be combined into one."
Uncle Wang sighed and reached out to take it, "It's too heavy, I'm sorry to hear it."
Nanfeng shook his head, "I won't be around anymore..."
When Nanfeng said this, he stopped talking. Uncle Wang guessed what he wanted to say and said, "Don't worry, if your friend comes here in the future, I will do my best to treat him."
"Thank you." Nan Feng nodded and thanked him, then stood up and looked at Yuan An Ning in the secret room.
Yuan Anning was still in a coma, and Uncle Wang lived up to his reputation as the King of Medicine. At the right time, Yuan Anning had regained his former appearance, but he had lost too much blood and his face was very pale.
"This is all I can do. There is nothing I can do to help with the damage to the meridians." Uncle Wang said.
"Thank you." Nanfeng thanked him again. Seeing the blood stains on Yuan Anning's face, he turned around and left the secret room, taking a wooden basin to get water from the yard.
As soon as I went out, I heard the sound of breaking wind coming from the west. When I went out and looked to the west, I saw that it was Hou Shulin who came.
Hou Shulin was sweating profusely, panting, and almost running out of energy. He was surprised to see Nanfeng, "Young hero, why are you back?"
Nanfeng originally planned to stop by Qingqing Academy on the way to Yingchuan, but now that Hou Shulin is here, there is no need to go. He took the two talisman papers he had written before and stuffed them into Hou Shulin's hands, "This is part of the Heavenly Book." , given to you, leave quickly."
"Young hero." Hou Shulin was so excited that he wanted to cry.
"Go quickly, don't be seen by the master." Nanfeng urged.
Seeing Nan Feng's serious expression, Hou Shulin didn't dare not leave, but he just reluctantly said, "If you have some free time, young hero, you will definitely go to Qingqing Academy to stay for a few days."
"If I really go, I'm afraid I will scare you to death." Nan Feng smiled bitterly.
Hou Shulin didn't know why, and waved his hands repeatedly, "If the young hero goes, Qingqing Academy will definitely flourish."
"Let's go." Nanfeng turned around and came back. Hou Shulin took advantage of the protection of the sachet and went to the west mountain.
He came back to get water and went to the secret room to wipe Yuan Anning. Feeling the coolness, Yuan Anning opened his eyes leisurely and saw Nan Feng beside him. He raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at Nan Feng.
Nan Feng helped Yuan An Ning sit up, took the bronze mirror from Uncle Wang with his backhand, and brought it to Yuan An Ning, "Come and take a look."
Appearance is the most important thing for a woman, and Yuan Anning is no exception. Seeing that her appearance has returned to its original state, she feels happy in her heart. However, Uncle Wang is nearby and can't say anything. He just smiles at Nanfeng again.
"Okay, thank you very much," Nanfeng returned the bronze mirror to Uncle Wang, then picked up Yuan Anning, "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere..."
