Chapter 102: A handful of immortal blood, nowhere to be found in the world (Part 1)

Most of the decorations in the living room are pine furniture. The style is very simple but not rough, and it looks very simple and elegant. There is a table of Eight Immortals and a chair on the backrest. The middle hall is hung with a picture of Laozi coming out of seclusion with the words "Purple Qi Comes East". Danxia and my husband sat down in the hall, but I didn't see their children. It is said that they are resting in the backyard and are weak and inconvenient to meet guests.

Danxiasheng must have his wife prepare wine and food to treat me well. It is not an ordinary favor to go up the mountain to deliver medicine during the Chinese New Year. I said that I am practicing fasting, so there is no need to worry. Danxiasheng heard that I am fasting, so he could only ask with a smile: "Then is OK to drink a cup of tea? Madam, make tea."

When I opened the celadon cover bowl, I saw the tender green buds standing in the slightly yellow amber tea. I took a sip and the fragrance filled my teeth, which was also a rare fine tea. I asked, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, what kind of tea is this?"

Mrs. Danxia: "This is Maofeng in Huangshan. I picked it with my own hands in this mountain. My husband's senior brother likes it the most."

"The Master Dan is really good at tasting tea. That's how we know each other. I opened a tea room in Wucheng, and he came the next day. I heard about you and your wife from him. I heard that you need Zhuguo, so I specially sent it. I don't know if these four Zhuguos are enough. If not, I still have them."

This was just a polite word. I heard that they needed thirteen pieces, and they had found ten pieces, but only three were missing. I specially sent one more. Unexpectedly, as soon as I said this, the two of them looked very excited. Dan Xiasheng almost grabbed my arm and asked, "Zhengren Shi, do you take this seriously? Are there any more? We still lack one."

"Is there one missing? Didn't the head of the sect say that only three were missing?" I also told the truth in surprise.

Dan Xiasheng sighed and said, "Originally, there were only three missing, but recently two red fruits have been preserved for too long and have lost their medicinal properties..."

Danxiasheng explained the whole story. It turned out that after the red fruit matured, it could be hung for a year. If it was picked one year later, it would fall to the ground and gradually turn into dust. If it was picked and placed in a jade box, it would not rot for three years, but it would gradually wither and lose its medicinal properties after three years. Two of the red fruits obtained by Danxiasheng and his wife were from three years ago. To ensure that the medicinal properties of the red fruits are not lost, it needs to be refined into a pill. However, the refining of this pill is very difficult and not successful every time. Danxiasheng hesitated and delayed, and the use of two pills was missing.

Hearing this, I thought to myself, Danxiasheng said that using Zhuguo to make pills, which should be the unique "Dragon Head Pill" that Han Ziying refined for me. I gave Ziying five Zhuguos, and Ziying refined five dragon head pills. One was stolen by Axiu and tricked me into eating. Another one I took after fighting with Qiye. Now there are three left, and I took them all with me. Thinking of this, I took a small bottle from my body, poured out the red pills and put them on the table and said, "Is the elixir mentioned by fellow Daoist Danxia, ​​is it this kind of dragon head pill? Can it be used instead of Zhuguo?"

"Oh my God, it's really a dragon-headed pill! Okay, of course, I'll add two more dragon-headed pills and the medicine will be fully equipped! - God, Shi Zhenren is really the destiny of my husband and wife. How can we thank this?"

"Take it and use it, no need to thank you. Since the medicine is complete, I wish you and your husband to refine the Nine-Turn Purple Golden Pill as soon as possible. In fact, I also have a big question to ask for."

Danxia and his wife said in unison: "What's wrong with Shi Zhenren? Just speak."

I sighed and looked at them and said, "I want to tell you a story..." Then, I slowly told Liu Fei'er's story. After hearing this, the couple remained silent for a long time. Mrs. Danxia was a woman and was most likely to be moved by such things. She had tears in her eyes when she heard it. Seeing that Danxia didn't say anything, she stabbed her husband and said, "Husband, the medicine is already there. No matter what, you have to give it a try, save our child and save that poor woman."

Dan Xiasheng also sighed: "The medicine is complete, but the medicine can never be found. Without the medicine, it is too difficult to succeed! If it is not done again, it is impossible to find the medicine."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but ask: "Fellow Daoist Danxia, ​​what is that medicine? Tell me out, let's go find it together."

Danxiasheng stroked his forehead with his hand: "It's useless to say it, it's something that doesn't exist in the world."

"What exactly? As long as it has a name, we can find a way to find it, regardless of whether it exists or not."

At this time, Mrs. Danxia walked to her husband, put her hand gently on his shoulder, and said softly: "No matter what fate is, we couple will do our best. It is a miracle that this Shi Zhenren can take out four red fruits at a time, and taking out three dragon-headed pills is simply shocking. Maybe he will have a way... Shi Zhenren, that medicine is the blood of a thousand-year immortal."

"Thousand-year Immortal Blood!"

Danxiasheng: "Yes, it's this thing. Where do we ask us to find it? There are no immortals who have practiced for thousands of years in this world."

"Isn't learning the alchemy also for the purpose of cultivating immortals? I heard that the alchemy can break through the final realm and ascend to become an immortal. Has no one succeeded?"

Danxiasheng: "We couples are not only practitioners, but also modern people. We have also read books and understand the truth. This is a logical paradox, and the blood of immortals does not exist in theory."

Mrs. Danxia also added: "We have never seen anyone with our own eyes that has achieved enlightenment and become immortals, but it is said that Huangdi, five thousand years ago, ascended to become an immortal on this mountain. Even if this is true, there are no immortals in the world. Because once a human becomes an immortal, he will ascend and go. I don't know where the mortals go, but we practitioners actually don't know. Since this is the human world, there is no blood of immortals."

Danxiasheng looked up and said, "Zheng Shi, we know that you have a master-disciple relationship with Senior Shouzheng, and your background and knowledge are of course extraordinary. What just now was actually what Shouzheng told us to our husband and wife."

"You have met Senior Shouzheng? What did he say?"

Danxiasheng: "Two years ago, we went to Wucheng and entrusted our children to Zhengyimen and Xi to take care of them. We went to Feijinfeng to collect herbs. Later, we returned to Zhengyimen and paid homage to Shouzheng Zhenren. Shouzheng Zhenren told us that there is no immortal blood in this world."

"Have Shouzheng said nothing else?"

Danxiasheng: "I said that he said there is something in the world that can be replaced."

"What?"

Danxiasheng: "Thousand-year spiritual blood."

"What does the thousand-year-old spiritual blood mean?"

Mrs. Danxia: "It is the blood of a thousand years of spirituality. If a practitioner has been practicing for thousands of years in the world, his blood will be fine. If he is not a human, no matter what kind of monster and elves, as long as he can realize the Tao and practice on his own, and has the magic power for thousands of years of cultivation, his blood will be fine."

"Then it is possible to find this thousand-year-old spiritual blood."

Mrs. Danxia: "This kind of thing does exist in the world, and we both met it personally. I thought that back then, I had fought with a thousand-year-old monster and was seriously injured. If it weren't for my husband's rescue, I would have died."

"Then why not look for that monster?"

Danxiasheng: "That thousand-year-old monster was removed by my husband and wife, where can I find it? Think about it, this is also cause and effect. If the monster hadn't hurt my wife, my child wouldn't have the disease caused by the womb. However, to refine the Nine-Turn Purple Gold Pill, it would actually take thousand-year-old spiritual blood."

"Then can you find another thousand-year-old demon spirit?"

Danxiasheng: "Beasts, plants and trees practice differently from people, and they need to rely on the opportunity of creation in heaven and earth. Thousand-year-old spiritual objects are very rare in the world. Even if you spend a lifetime searching for them, you may not be able to encounter them. Moreover, this Nine-Turn Purple Gold Pill has the effect of changing the furnace and cauldron. If the monsters in the world know, they will be afraid that they will rise up and fight for each other. How can my husband and wife refine medicine safely?"

When Danxiasheng said this, I couldn't help asking again: "Isn't it just a thousand-year-old blood? I heard that some animals, such as some turtles, can live for hundreds of years, and maybe even thousands of years."

Mrs. Danxia: "It would be great if it was that simple. We and my wife have found the Thousand-year-old turtle, but its blood is not Thousand-year-old spiritual blood. Ordinary blood cannot do it. It must be practiced for thousands of years. No matter human or beast, it must be practiced."

"So are plants and trees?"

Danxiasheng: "Grass and trees? There are many thousand-year-old pine trees in Huangshan, but does the grass and trees have blood? The blood of plants and trees is actually the cup of tea we drink, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Danxiasheng: "Unless this kind of grass and trees gathers the spiritual energy of mountains and rivers, has become an elf, practiced for more than a thousand years, turned into a human form, and obtained opportunities and obtained human body, then you can also have thousands of years of spiritual blood."

"How many thousand-year spiritual blood is needed to refine a furnace of Nine-Turn Purple Gold Pill?"

Danxiasheng: "Why did you ask so carefully? Can you find it?"

"Don't ask me if I can find it. Tell me how many thousand-year spiritual blood is needed?" I asked this because I thought of a person, who is Luxue in Zhaoting Mountain, and she is the thousand-year-old elf who has turned into a human form. Danxiasheng said that this kind of elf needs to obtain a human body. I don't know whether Luxue has obtained a human body, but I know that someone must have a way to get a human body. Feng Junzi once recited the "Transformation Chapter" of the "Book of Heaven" in the Mountain Temple, and Sister Ziying and Axiu got a human body. But I want to ask clearly how much blood should be used. If it is used too much, it is to kill the demon spirit to get blood, I'm afraid it won't be possible.

Mrs. Danxia: "Not much, just one cup."

“What a cup?”

Danxiasheng looked at me with a passionate question. Mrs. Danxia went to the back hall to take out a bottle the size of a palm and put it on the table and said, "Just take the thousand-year-old spiritual blood and fill it with this cold dew jade bottle."

I felt relieved when I looked at the bottle. Not much, it was only about 300cc. What a person could give would not endanger his life. I took the bottle over and said, "Since that's the case, I think I have a way to help you find it. I have a friend who knows a thousand-year-old elf, and they have a good relationship. I will go and ask him now."

Danxia and his wife didn't say anything, with a burst of ecstasy in their eyes and their hands were tightly clasped. I had already thought of Luxury and wanted to go back and ask Feng Junzi. Without any delay, I stood up and said, "You guys prepare slowly, without further ado, I will go back to do this immediately."

"Zhen Shi, don't be anxious... There is another thing..." Danxia and his wife called me, seeing that their expressions were no longer ecstatic, and they were a little embarrassed, as if there was something difficult to talk about.

"What else?"

Mrs. Danxia looked at her husband and asked with a complicated expression: "Husband, should we make everything clear, do we need to tell him?"

Danxiasheng sighed again: "Madam, you should say it, we should make it clear."

Mrs. Danxia waved at me and said, "Zheng Shi, please sit down. I will tell you the refining of the Nine-Turn Purple Golden Pill."

"If you have something to say, is there anything else to pay attention to?"

Mrs. Danxia: "It is very difficult to refine this kind of elixir. Even if the medicinal materials and medicine are all equipped, it may not be successful."

"I know this, everyone is just trying their best."

Mrs. Danxia: "Not only that, do you know the difference between immortal blood and thousand-year-old spiritual blood?"

“What’s the difference?”

Mrs. Danxia: "If you get the blood of a thousand-year-old immortal as a medicine guide, according to the Xuanyuan School’s pill recipe since ancient times, you can make nine elixirs. But if you use the thousand-year-old spiritual blood instead, you may only make one elixir."

"Is this true? Can't I make one more?" I was already full of joy, but Mrs. Danxia's words poured me out like a basin of cold water! If they only make one, their children will use it, so what should Liu Fei'er do? I have to find this place so much, and I have to find a way to ask Luxue for the thousand-year-old spiritual blood, but in the end I was happy.

Dan Xiasheng replied: "There is insufficient medicinal properties of the thousand-year-old spirit blood. Theoretically, if it is made into a elixir, the number of elixirs will be insufficient. One elixir is the most likely. As for whether it can become one more, I don't know."

"Is there no other way to think about?"

Dan Xiasheng: "Actually, I haven't seen anyone who has truly refined the Nine-Turn Purple Golden Pill. I'm not sure about how many pills have been made. All of this is just based on the speculation of the pill recipe."

Danxiasheng lowered her head and said nothing, while Mrs. Danxia looked at me with a pitiful and begging look. I understood what they meant and knew that there was a thousand-year-old spiritual blood that could be used to refine elixirs to save their son. But the thousand-year-old spiritual blood was asked to ask me to find it. The purpose of my search was to refine elixirs to save another person. If I couldn't get the elixir, they were afraid that I would not come to help again. What should I do? God, what should I do?

I looked at them and said, "Leave the will of heaven and do our best. Don't worry, I will help you find thousands of years of spiritual blood. If God's will only make one pill, you can use it for your children. If you are lucky enough to make two pills, please give me one."
