Under the bright night sky, the majestic figure of the Enlightenment Tree King blocked the moonlight. The little medicine kings were soaking in the water, having a great time. Even Lu Yang joined in and became one of them. Time seemed to stand still and the scene was exceptionally harmonious.
After the little medicine kings had a comfortable bath, they lay down on the ground or on the wooden houses and fell asleep.
The Enlightenment Tree King was not idle. While the little medicine kings were sleeping, he collected the wooden barrels and water, which puzzled Lu Yang.
“What is this doing?”
The Enlightenment Tree King said casually: "Oh, this is what Xiaoba wanted. He said that bath water is very valuable and all disciples of the Daoist Sect like to use it."
The branches of the Enlightenment Tree King moved, and made a shrug-like motion, expressing that he was helpless about the actions of the human race.
As a plant, it is difficult for it to understand some of the strange behaviors of humans. As it knows, humans like to use its hair, that is, the leaves, to make tea, or use the skin to cook, saying that it can enhance the fragrance, and it seems to be called cinnamon or something.
"Oh, by the way, Xiaoba also gave the bath water a nice name, called Medicine King Spiritual Liquid. You humans are more cultured and your naming skills are much better than ours."
"Medicine King Spiritual Liquid?"
Lu Yang repeated it in a low voice unconsciously. He felt that the name sounded familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere. Then he quickly remembered where he had seen this word.
Isn’t this the extremely popular Medicine King’s Elixir on the Contribution Point Exchange List!
The Medicine King's Elixir introduced in the list is a precious liquid specially refined by the top leaders of the Daodao Sect. It turns out that it is specially refined in this way!
Lu Yang began to question the various strange things on the list. Judging from the description, there was nothing wrong with them, but that didn’t mean there really was no problem!
…
In the following days, Lu Yang worked hard digging the ground while listening to the little medicine kings chattering about herbal knowledge in his ears. His life was very abundant.
"I remember there is a patch of eight-treasure lotus in front. It is pink and tender and very beautiful. Do you want to go over and take a look?" The ginseng doll said behind Lu Yang.
“…Lotus should grow in ponds, right?”
"Yes." The ginseng doll nodded as a matter of course.
"If I go through it, won't I just dive into the pool?"
The ginseng doll suddenly realized: "Yes. What you said makes sense."
"… "
Lu Yang followed the direction indicated by the ginseng doll and crawled out of the ground. Not far away was the magnificent Eight Treasures Lotus. The morning dew condensed and dripped on the tips of the petals, dripping into the water, creating ripples.
The eight-treasure lotus has the effects of clearing away heat and dampness, detoxifying and nourishing the heart, and is often used in alchemy.
"I just don't know why the Eight Treasures Lotus is called 'Eight Treasures'." Lu Yang said, thinking of what he had read in the book.
This is an unsolved mystery among alchemists. Countless alchemists have written books, quoted classics, and put forward various viewpoints.
For example, some people say that this is because the Eight Treasures Lotus has eight functions, hence the name Eight Treasures. Some say that the name of the Eight Treasures Lotus evolved from the Tai Shang Bagua. Others say that the Eight Treasures refer to the eight meridians of the human body, and eating more Eight Treasures Lotus can open up the eight extraordinary meridians... In short, there are all kinds of opinions.
Lu Yang believes more in the first hypothesis, which has eight effects. Apart from anything else, at least the first one sounds reliable.
"Are you talking about this? I know." said the ginseng doll.
"You know?"
The ginseng baby put his hands on his hips and said proudly, "Yes, the Eight Treasures Lotus was discovered by Gu Yue. At that time, the two of us accidentally entered an undiscovered secret realm. Fortunately, the two of us have high cultivation levels, so the secret realm is not dangerous to us."
"We two had fun in the secret realm. When we got tired, we rested there, ate, slept, etc., just to enjoy the atmosphere."
"While eating, Mr. Gu Yue found a pink lotus, which he had never seen before. I asked him what he wanted to name the lotus. He took a look at the eight-treasure porridge in his hand and casually said it might as well be called the eight-treasure lotus."
"Later, he took a few lotus plants away and propagated them outside, and they have grown to their current size."
Lu Yang: “…”
This was not the first time he had heard Master Gu Yue’s stories, and each time there was an unexpected ending.
The other little medicine kings have also traveled thousands of miles and experienced many things, but none of them were as exciting as the ginseng baby's experience.
Through contact with the little medicine kings, they gradually accepted Lu Yang. Even when Lu Yang changed back to his original size, the little medicine kings did not reject Lu Yang. Instead, they thought that big guys were quite interesting.
A month passed in a flash. During this period, Uncle Ba took away the empty spirit stones and the little medicine king's bath water, and brought a large number of high-quality spirit stones, asking the little medicine kings to be buried in their original places.
Uncle Ba also picked a lot of medicinal herbs from time to time and provided them to Danding Peak.
…
"Originally, Mr. Guyue was not called Mr. Guyue. His surname was Hu, and he called himself Mr. Hu. He didn't write very well. One time when he wrote his own name, the word "Hu" was written too wide, and people pronounced it as Mr. Guyue. He was a person who didn't care, so he just called himself Mr. Guyue and didn't change it." The ginseng doll continued to mutter about Mr. Guyue's dark history in Lu Yang's ear as usual.
At this moment, Uncle Ba sent a message to Lu Yang.
"Lu Yang, come out for a moment."
When he arrived at the entrance of the medicine garden, he saw a loving couple. The husband was sunny and confident, and the wife was petite and cuddly. However, Lu Yang was not impressed by the quality of their clothes.
The couple was wearing clothes that looked like swimming rings, so bulky that they would float even if they fell into the sea.
This is the clothing custom of their ethnic group.
"These two are..."
"Let me introduce you. These are your predecessors, the Silver Ring Heavenly King Earthworms." Uncle Ba said.
Lu Yang suddenly realized that the couple's conflict seemed to be resolved and they had reconciled, so he didn't have to dig the soil anymore.
The emotional dispute was resolved in just one month, which was quite fast. He thought it would take at least 40 or 50 episodes to be a series, with the heroine losing her memory and the hero awakening her memory, leading to a happy ending or something.
"His name is Lu Yang. You and your wife should have heard of him. He is the fourth disciple of the sect master, trained by Yun Zhi herself."
"Greetings, seniors." Lu Yang saluted, which frightened the Silver Ring Heavenly King so much that his heart trembled. He quickly lifted Lu Yang up and did not dare to accept the salute.
"You are Yunzhi's junior fellow apprentice. My name is Li Yin. Just call me Xiao Li. This is my wife Xiao Li."
The devil's junior brother, who dares to treat him as a junior
Lu Yang didn't know what kind of image the senior sister had in other people's minds.
"How do you solve your marital problems?"
"What's the difficulty?" A voice came from underground.
A couple emerged from the ground, looking exactly like the silver-ringed earthworm.
"Since my wife can split herself into two and become sisters, I can naturally split myself into two and become a brother." Xiao Li said proudly.
Mr. and Mrs. Li No. 2 are also very loving.
Uncle Ba nodded with satisfaction. This idea was his.
He is still very responsible and will solve problems if they arise.
