Chapter 406: The First Concession
Qi Tianxi sighed again on the side and said: "What President Zhang said is right, this method is a double-edged sword, but there is no other way for Lao Dao to do it, whether you want to do it or not depends on the meaning of Chen Xian's nephew." ”
Only then did Shi Ren understand the method proposed by Qi Tianxi, in fact, to put it bluntly, it was a kind of fighting poison with poison.
Although this method can temporarily postpone Zhang Xingchen's death by three months, the final result is still death, maybe after three months, he will slowly be relieved, and he will no longer suffer from gains and losses like today.
Just when Shi Rendu was about to convince himself to agree, Zhang Baiyou suddenly asked, "Daoist Qi, I don't know if you have heard of the Nine Turns Golden Pill left by the Queen Mother of the West back then?"
As soon as Zhang Baiyou finished speaking, many people present raised their heads to look at him and Qi Tianxi, it seems that the name of this Nine Turns Golden Pill is very loud, and most of the people present know this thing.
Qi Tianxi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Lao Dao has heard of it, but he hasn't seen it with his own eyes. ”
Zhang Baiyou asked again: "I don't know this thing, can it save the life of my beloved disciple?"
"If there is such a thing, then the fire poison is indeed not a problem", Qi Tianxi added after speaking: "It can be cured, and there is no possibility of recurrence." ”
When Shi Ren heard this, the ashes left behind by the burning of the fire of hope in his heart instantly rekindled, "Old Man Zhang, do you have that nine-turn golden pill?"
Zhang Baiyou shook his head and sighed: "That golden pill is the supreme treasure in the world, how can I have a bad old man, what I have is just the news about the location of this golden pill that I was eager to save my son back then." ”
These words were like a basin of cold water poured on his head, Shi Rengang's hope for a resurgence was extinguished again, and Old Man Zhang's son and daughter-in-law died in the end, which shows that he did not follow those clues to find the Nine Turns Golden Pill left by the Queen Mother of the West.
Shi Ren fell into loss and disappointment again, Qi Tianxi was already the top person in this world, even he could only fight poison with poison, and others were afraid that even if they had other methods, the result would not be too good.
At this time, Tu Wanyao suddenly said: "Master, if you are willing to tell the clues you heard back then, we have so many investigators here, there are many people and there are many people, there must always be one or two who know something, even if they don't, I can let them follow you and find the clues they found back then." ”
Zhang Baiyou felt that what he said also made some sense, so he opened his mouth and told 1510 the news about the West Queen Mother's Nine Turning Jindan.
The reason why people want to embark on the road of the Great Dao in every possible way is that they want to transcend the world and jump out of the reincarnation of the five elements through cultivation, so as to have endless longevity, but from the beginning of the dynasties with physical objects to the present, there are as many people who cultivate the Tao as a carp crossing the river, but there is not a single person who can become an immortal and attain the Tao.
This is why the story of the Queen Mother of the West is more like a myth, but there are still people who want to find and get this elixir, among which there are not only cultivators like Shi Ren, but also many ordinary people who have wealth and power and have nothing to do.
However, without exception, none of these people became the lucky ones of legend, but the number of people who paid for it will not be reduced.
And the clues that Zhang Baiyou knows are the legacy left by these countless predecessors who died or did not die, but what he knows is only the general location of Kunlun Divine Mountain, where the Queen Mother of the West lives.
However, this does not mean that their action was a failure and meaningless, at least Zhang Baiyou and they proved one thing, that is, there really is the Queen Mother of the West and the Queen Mother of the West who live in this world and the Kunlun Sacred Mountain where they live.
A multiple-choice question was once again placed in front of Shi Ren, whether to choose to fight poison with poison in a practical way, or to choose to find the ethereal Western Queen Mother Kingdom and the Nine Turns Golden Pill that could live forever if you ate it.
Tu Wanyao was already incompatible with his unlucky son, and he was already in a bad mood today, but when he heard his high opinion at this moment, he immediately scolded: "Extremely stupid, if I were to talk less, don't say that it is a laughing death that makes you pay for your life, even if you laugh off someone else's tooth, do you have the money to pay?"
Tu Taoyuan's idea sounds very feasible at first glance, but it is not considered on closer examination.
Looking for the Nine Turns Golden Pill is nothing more than two results, you can find it and you can't find it, but if you let Zhang Xingchen eat the Kunlun Ice Silkworm first, there will only be a dead end left for Zhang Xingchen to go.
If three months later, someone finds the Nine Turns Golden Pill, but Zhang Xingchen dies because of the combination of ice and fire, then all the efforts will be in vain, and no one knows if this Golden Pill can solve the double poison of ice and fire.
Immortality may only be a rumor of word of mouth, and when everything is not clear, it is actually the best way to respond to all changes with the same.
Moreover, if Zhang Xingchen came to his senses after taking the Ice Silkworm, but he insisted that everyone not have to look for the legendary Nine Turns Golden Pill for himself, then how to solve this problem at that time.
So what is still in front of Shi Ren's eyes is still a multiple-choice question, not a multiple-choice question, and this is a multiple-choice question that is related to the life and death of his loved ones and only he can answer.
Shi Ren, who was silent in everyone, waited to come out of his mouth with the same or different answers.
Finally, Shi Ren seemed to have mustered up enough courage and said, "Old Man Zhang, if you don't accept the ice silkworm, do you have a way to suppress the spread of this Vermilion Bird Fire Poison for a long time?"
Zhang Baiyou thought for a moment, nodded and said: "The old man once got a Xuanbing cold coffin by chance, originally wanted to keep it for the purpose of suppressing the corpse after a hundred years, but now he wants to let the second child warm the old man's bed for me first." ”
Everyone was infected by his optimism, and although they did not laugh, they also swept away the previous gloom.
Although Shi Ren did not make a straightforward choice, his question had already explained his attitude, and what he had to do now was to try his best to collect some more clues about Xi Kunlun, and then organize a group of people to set off to find the Nine Turns Golden Pill.
In order to collect more clues, the first thing that came to everyone's mind was to go home, and this home did not refer to their own home, but to the home that they all shared, the island known as Bai Yujing.
In the pre-Qin period, Xu Fu once led 800 boys and girls to the sea to find the fairy mountain Penglai, nominally this time to go to sea for Qin Shi Huang to find a panacea that can live forever, but in fact, Xu Fu's trip to the sea is just the first concession of the cultivator to the mundane.
