Baopuzi: Rejuvenation is easy, but the road to becoming a saint is not far away.
Throughout the ages, there have been legends of miraculous events in the East and the West about rejuvenation. The existence of this phenomenon is not some supernatural event, but one of the many ways in which organisms exist in the world through evolutionary selection.
The sun rises, the moon shines, the wind corrodes and rain decays. These are natural phenomena that are inescapable for everything in the world. A stone will be eroded and decayed after being exposed to wind, sun and rain for a long time, and the same is true for a tree and a life.
In order to delay this process, ancient and modern alchemists studied natural phenomena and summarized enduring laws and principles to extend their lifespan. This kind of alchemy is actually the utilization and summary of natural science phenomena.
Since dead trees can grow into spring, why can't people become young again
When Feng Juyuan was appointed as the eunuch of Chicheng in the Qing Dynasty, he said that there was an old man in Chicheng Mountain who was said to be from the Yuan Dynasty. He went to see him and called him a sage. The old man said: "I am not a god. I only know some techniques of breathing, breathing and guiding, so I can survive." Ju Yuan asked about his alchemy, and the old man said: "It is nothing more than the "Alchemy Sutra", but it does not completely rely on the "Alchemy Sutra"." ", the sense of propriety is extremely subtle. If there is no authentic formula, and you only use it according to the law, it will be like relying on chess records to play chess, and you will definitely lose; just like sticking to prescriptions to treat diseases, the patient will be in danger.
Highly recommended, it’s really good and worth installing. After all, there are many sources of books, complete books, and fast updates!
He also said: "If there is a slight imbalance in the order of priority, it may turn into malignant sores, or stagnation may lead to phlegm, or even the essence and energy may be disordered, the mind will not be at ease, and even madness. This is not just a futile problem."
Juyuan asked again: "Can Rongcheng's and Pengzu's alchemy extend life?"
The old man said: "That is an evil way. If you don't know how to practice it, disaster will come to you immediately. If you can get it, it can only make people stronger. If you are extremely strong, there will be unexpected disasters. Just like going against heaven. Although you can get rich quickly by amassing money in an unreasonable way, you will never enjoy long-term peace of mind in the end. Don’t be fooled by this.”
Juyuan asked again: "How about taking the elixir?"
The old man said: "Elixirs are used to treat diseases and replenish qi and blood, not to maintain health. What the alchemists use to take them are just some plants, trees, gold and stones. Plants and trees cannot help decaying, and gold and stones must be melted. They must be melted. If it cannot survive forever, how can it survive forever with the help of their remaining energy?”
Juyuan finally asked: "Can a person who becomes an immortal really be immortal?"
The old man said with a smile: "How can there be a real god in the world? Life must lead to death. This is the common law of all things. Cultivating essence to preserve life is a way to control death in reverse. If the control is not relaxed, then the essence will be condensed and the spirit will be Cohesion; once the control is relaxed, the essence will dissipate and the spirit will dissipate. When the spirit dissipates, the person will die. Just like a wealthy family, if they are diligent and thrifty, they will be rich for a long time, but if they are not diligent and frugal, they will gradually become poor."
Ge Luzhai from Jingzhou told Ji Xiaolan about this matter, saying that the old man's words were very true and not the confusing words of ordinary alchemists.
During the anniversary of Emperor Wu of the Tang Dynasty, envoys from the Liugui Kingdom presented bear bile essence of a short-faced giant bear, and the magicians in the palace developed a miraculous prescription based on it. The Emperor Dezetian grew new teeth at the age of eighty, and her body function was as good as dead wood. , it can be said that he is rejuvenated.
Baiyuntang has inherited this alchemy, but because bear bile essence is rare, the inheritors of the past generations only have recipes but no materials and cannot experiment. Until Bai Wuxia suddenly got the bear bile essence donated by Li Muye, so he started to refine the medicine. .
The elixir is made, but I don't know how effective it is. Based on the properties of the prescription, Bai Wuxia concluded that the medicine was at least harmless, so he decided to try it himself. As a result, after taking it, the bones and tendons began to shrink, sublimate and feathered, and finally became like a six or seven-year-old child. In the process, the changes that took place in her were discovered by Feng Jian Xiao, who was pretending to be an undercover agent, so he contacted all parties and seized the opportunity to launch a raid on Baiyuntang.
After the Linglong Domain was conquered, Bai Wuxia already knew Fengjian Xiao's identity and kept it secret. He originally wanted to keep this clue for a big picture and wipe out Xiaoyao Pavilion, but he didn't expect that because of this change, he would be defeated. After messing up the layout and seeing his strength declining, he had no choice but to deliberately expose his flaws to lure Feng Jianxiao to take action. He then injured the opponent's eyes and escaped from the Linglong Domain. Unexpectedly, a fierce battle intensified this abnormality. When he accidentally fell into the hands of the mercenaries of the Imperial Alliance, Bai Wuxia had already transformed into a six or seven-year-old child.
She has a way to reverse the effects of the medicine and restore her strength, but it takes time. If Bai Wuxia wants to return to or even surpass the level of her heyday, she must at least wait until Tiankui arrives, collects the red dragon, and her body fully develops to the look of a mature girl.
Feng Jian Xiao and Wen Diao Long are both top alchemists at the top of the literary list. How can they allow her to regroup and take revenge after she recovers? On the other hand, the changes that happened to Bai Wuxia actually aroused their curiosity and jealousy. For these great alchemists, deciphering the phenomenon that happened to Bai Wuxia was an unparalleled challenge.
Bai Wuxia told everything about the past.
Li Muye couldn't help but ask: "When will you regain your strength?"
Not sure, it could be as long as three years, or as short as a few months.
"Can't you talk before this?"
Yes.
"Far water cannot quench the near thirst." Li Muye sighed: "It seems that we can't expect you to regain your strength to drive away Wang Ba."
Even if he recovers, I am still no match for him under the current conditions, unless I can get back some of the treasures I used to fight against the enemy. His kung fu is so high, I can't hope to knock him down by chanting a spell, right
"I have a few unsavory gadgets here. You can use them first." Li Muye handed her the secret agent watch and anesthesia needle ring that had not been used for many days. After a final hesitation, he handed her the pocket pistol. Hit her twice.
Li Muye, you are so kind to me, why are you so kind to me
"Am I not your biological father?" Li Muye teased.
Hehe, I remembered that I treated a female patient before. Her husband was a high-ranking official. Privately, she liked to call her husband her biological father at home.
"Stop it." Li Muye said: "I'm not in the mood to talk to you about this nonsense now. You'd better use your rich experience in the world to help me analyze the situation at hand. We are now at the end of the road. There are hundreds of kilometers away. It is an uninhabited quicksand belt. Look at the black rocks around it. No matter how I look at it, it looks like a mountain peak buried in sand."
I don’t understand geography, so I’m too lazy to worry about it. Anyway, I’ll go with you wherever you take me. Even if I really can’t get out, it’s not bad to die here with you.
"You are happy with it, but Brother Ye is not happy with me." Li Muye deliberately pushed her up with force and said angrily: "I have a woman in North America who is pregnant with a child waiting for me, and my sister has not been found either. I have to live!"
Looking around, I saw endless desolate scenery everywhere. The sky was getting dark and the northwest wind was blowing, adding to the desolate and scary mood. Along the way, I often see the white bones of animals and animals that have been completely eroded by the wind and sand. When I think that it may not be long before I am likely to be with them, I can't help but feel resentful and annoyed: "If I had known that this ghost place was so difficult to walk, I would rather follow them." It is better for Wang Ba to fight to the death vigorously than to die cowardly in this hellish place."
Wang Ba may not necessarily kill you, but may keep your life to blackmail Li Zhonghua.
"He didn't say he wanted to kill you." After Li Muye recognized Bai Wuxia's identity, he felt a sense of relief mentally and said in an equal tone: "Maybe he also wants to get something from you."
If I fall into his hands, he will definitely use it as a bargaining chip to take over as the new master of Xiaoyao Pavilion and give it to the devil Feng Jianxiao. That old devil might eat me alive. Li Muye, do you want this to happen to me? Something
"I wish I had never met you." Li Muye found a stone and sat down on it, saying, "Does it make sense to talk about these useless nonsense now?"
I am a woman, so of course my focus is different from yours.
"I also want to be a woman." Li Muye opened his backpack and let her come out to stretch her hands and feet. He pointed at her pants that were a little too short and said: "You grow up very fast. Generally, a girl of twelve or thirteen years old The child is no longer taller than you, and you said before that Tiankui can regain his previous strength after coming to collect the Red Dragon. At this growth rate, I think it won't be long before you can protect yourself."
It's still early, but he is growing a little faster. Bai Wuxia smiled slightly and wrote on the sand with his finger: You just hope that I will recover quickly so that you can drive me away, right
Women have maternal nature, so men don’t have fatherly nature. People who are easily unemotional will find it difficult to take it back completely once they are emotionally moved. Li Muye thought about the past that had been inseparable from her during these days, and he actually felt a little reluctant to let go of this enchantress who was so ambitious that even powerful men like Huo Ze looked down on her.
"That's not what I mean. I just feel that we are not in the same boat. A person like you must have a lot of big things to do, but I am actually just an idle wanderer with no ambitions." Li Muye explained: "You should regain your strength soon. Then I can regain the world of Baiyuntang as soon as possible, and I can also return to my original rhythm of life."
You have heard what Wang Ba said before, and you should know that the person who least wants me to regain my strength is Li Zhonghua.
"He is him, and I am me." Li Muye said: "If I were in step with him, why would I have gone to where I am today."
I'm not saying that you are like him, I'm just telling you a fact. Li Zhonghua and Wang Ba are both ambitious people. You are his son. From the moment Chen Miao found you, you were destined not to stay out of it unless you Stronger than Xuan Chen, otherwise this world would not be able to tolerate any idle clouds and wild cranes.
"I just do my best to obey fate." Li Muye said: "I just want to do what I want to do, and don't think about the consequences of success or failure. Wherever I go, I will be there."
You still don’t know enough about this world, so you say such humane words. Bai Wuxia erased the writing on the sand and gently rested his head on Li Muye's shoulder. His movements were natural and intimate. He stayed quiet for a while, then leaned his whole body on Li Muye's lap, freeing up a hand. Lai wrote on the sand: Li Muye, you are such a cunning, yet innocent and lovely stinky man.
He also wrote: It stinks so much, I really want to take a bath with you... (End of this chapter)
