Volume 2 Jingcheng Treasure Hunt (1) Miscellaneous Things in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 39 Fig Leaf, Array of Eyes "Joy and Life"
It turns out that these three people are not the only ones who participated in this Danding refining incident. There is another group of low-talent monks whose cultivation is barely better than ordinary people, and the highest is only as low as the late stage of foundation building.
They are all a group of lonely old people who are worried.
Even if he cultivates it, because of the limitation of talent, his lifespan is only 200 years.
Seeing that their lives were coming to an end, they were also anxious, not in a hurry to refine the golden pill to ensure immortality, but to regret it......
I regret why I had to hold on to that breath in the first place, and I ran away with my son and grandson who were either stingy or stingy!
Although the cultivators in the Lingyun Continent, in addition to the necessary family in-laws, in the sect or the people who are scattered cultivators, there are usually few descendants who have their own descendants with their own bloodline, and they are generally inherited from master and apprentice, and they will adopt if they are not good.
Because they don't want to let superfluous existence take away their time and energy to pursue the supreme path.
It was only for low-level cultivators like them who encountered obstacles in the late stage of cultivation and might not be able to progress again in this life would they consider starting a family and having their own children and grandchildren.
Only the old man who is black and fat, because he has been a childhood sweetheart with her Taoist companion since he was a child, is full of children and grandchildren.
It's a pity, Fu Bo.
His Taoist companion and son didn't have much capital to cultivate immortals, and when their life spans ran out a few years ago, they went one after another.
Now only one grandson is still alive, but he is not doing his job and is not around like the bastard son of other old men.
In all kinds of Qinglou Chu Pavilion, tea shop and wine shop, not to mention, only they spent all the money lavishly, and when they came back, they reached out and begged for a few days, and they could still see the shadows of people.
However, when they were young, the old men were also very angry. It's okay to scold, sometimes I'm so angry that I use the fireball technique and the Heavenly Thunder Correction Method to deal with jackals, tigers and leopards.
The more people were beaten and scolded, the fewer people who naturally came back.
Over time, I even forgot the way home. Or rather, they don't want to come back and see the disappointed eyes of their loved ones.
The old men also tried to go out, to the places they used to go to most often. However, finding it does not mean that they are willing to go home.
Some people are really ancestral twisters.
For the sake of that dignity, Lao Tzu vowed to ignore this little rabbit cub.
What about the son? Because I don't want to see those eyes that hate iron but not steel, and the accusations that stand and talk without backache, I feel sorry for myself and give up on myself after escaping reality.
And this is also the main reason why these old men will eventually get involved in Li Ji's plan-
They have also heard the news that Li Ji has changed from the so-called "Three Spirit Root Cultivation True Genius" who was widely praised in the township and outside the township to a proud waste material that cannot be cultivated.
Later, by chance, the thin old man Qin bumped into him and was bullied on the street, because he connected to his son, so he helped him teach people back.
The kid immediately hugged him and didn't let go, saying that he wanted to learn from a teacher.
He couldn't, and he was really lonely for a long time, as if he was bewitched by that unspeakable warmth, and the ghost made God agree.
I have to say that that kid is really good at being a man, these old men are happy to be taken care of by him, and they teach heartily, and they don't leave their hands.
It wasn't until Township Chief Li from other villages had his hair turned gray that he came to the door and hugged his son and cried, that they came back to their senses, and they couldn't just take over other people's sons because they liked them and didn't let go.
So he asked Li Ji, who had already learned a lot of skills, to follow his father back to the village.
Unexpectedly, this was the beginning of the disaster.
Li Jiben has been accustomed to pride and indulgence since he was a child! Since he was born, he has been a genius monk who has shocked the countryside.
Not only because he was the only three-spirit root monk in the township and outside the township who was in excellent condition, but also because he could form a small elemental cycle in his body.
Later, he was favored by the Xiuzhen sect in the town and became an inner disciple.
It was also when he really entered the mountain gate that Li Ji knew that he was not a bullshit genius. It's just a piece of garbage that has just touched the lowest threshold of cultivation.
The gap in his heart that the worldview collapsed knocked him out at once. All the self-confidence and love for one's own cultivation in the past have all been transformed into inferiority and jealousy.
The most terrible thing is that he, Li Ji, is jealous of other people's talents, and wants to assassinate the top name of the sect in the annual sect freshman competition.
But he was mistakenly injured in the hand, he was the three spiritual roots of water, wood and fire, but the wood spiritual root was broken, and since then it has become a physique of water and fire, and he can no longer cultivate in this life, and his lifespan is only a hundred years.
After going crazy, tearing and biting people when he saw them like mad dogs in the sect, Li Ji felt that he had been tortured and ridiculed by those arrogant cultivators.
He was angry and resentful.
But the bastard who broke his spiritual root and won the first place cautiously ran to apologize to him, saying that he didn't mean it!
The academy also helped him, as they were the only treasure in the academy that had a Mizuki Twin Spirit Root.
Even he, Li Ji, tried every means to curry favor with the elders of the sect who were obedient and begged for familiarity in the past, looked down on him and said:
He's just an ordinary three-spirit root, and if it's gone, it's gone. Since you can't accept it in your heart, forget it, don't explain, don't continue to stay in the sect, continue to accept the stimulation.
Then it was after Li Ji was persuaded to retire by the sect and went home in frustration.
The townsfolk who used to worship him as a god laughed at him, and they were always full of pride when they saw him, and the family couldn't accept this fact, and his father suddenly aged like a teenager, and his head turned white overnight. The mother's distressed and worried eyes......
Each one made him mad with anxiety.
He gradually began to suffer from insomnia and dreams, and he washed his face with tears every night, he longed for the comfort of his family, and longed for someone to hold the grievances with him......
But no, they all said, "Why are you so useless because of a big man's family?" Don't all those people who don't have the talent for cultivation live well? You have to learn to hoe and start working quickly......
Then, as if they had forgotten the past when they admired him, praised him, supported him, encouraged him, and were proud of him, they forced him to explain the ordinary life that could be seen at a glance, day after day.
Li Ji couldn't accept it, after he started to feel sorry for himself at home again that day, and attributed all his sorrows and pains to the mistakes of others, Township Chief Li really couldn't stand it.
He slapped Li Ji completely, and he shouted:
Sober up!
Li Ji couldn't understand it, and only felt ashamed.
Since that day, he's really been more energetic with his family, okay, big man, right, don't care about it, right, how to live it, right?
So, he began to give up on himself, gambling in the smoke house during the day, and going to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion and the Tea House and Wine House at night.
Until he secretly took all the family's property and lost, rolled up and left overnight, he was chased and killed by the gambling house and kicked and beaten along the street, until he met the old man Qin.
His life just began to take a turn for the better. Although, not in the good sense of the word.
Although the old man, the original intention of teaching him to refine the elixir was to let him make some benefits for the poor mortals.
However, Li Ji relied on the pill recipes and alchemy formulas that could be used by mortals, and began to frequently appear in various large and medium-sized auction houses, waiting for the kind of nouveau riche who had deep pockets and little discernment ability to sell their pills to them.
But it had little effect, after all, there were hundreds of well-known pills of the same name that were refined by a mortal than him, and they also had celebrity effects.
He gradually began to study the crooked ways-
His elixir is no longer to replenish spiritual power for cultivators, or to regulate texture, spiritual veins, etc., but to pay more attention to health preservation, maintenance, kidney and aphrodisiac, beauty secrets and so on.
There is even a "sandwich" poison pill that was called an assassination weapon by the black market.
The result of this is that, suddenly, he Li Ji became popular.
Pick any person out of the village, and you can know his name. The people in the clan also apologized one after another, saying that they had misunderstood him and underestimated people in the past, and Mr. Li also proudly went around to drink tea with his friends every day, so that he could blow up his son inadlessly.
Li Ji feels very happy, yes, he Li Ji can still do it, it's great, isn't it?
But, the way of heaven is good reincarnation.
By chance, an old monk who bought his special effect aphrodisiac pill called "Dragon Muscle and Tiger Bone" at the auction suddenly died before he could put on his pants at home.
Then his sons and concubines came to the door unrelentingly, Li Ji must be angry, an old man, knocked three times in a night to go to Wushan Yunyu, he simply died by himself!
But, in this world, there is a word called "the strong are respected", in order to save Li Ji, who was caught and wanted to be cut off, her mother was mistakenly slashed by a cultivator in order to protect her cubs, so what happened.
Li Ji was going crazy at the time, but there was no way. Fortunately, in the end, the old men arrived and rescued him.
From that day on, he was completely insane.
The face was normal, but he began to run around the countryside to incite those who, like him, had tested their cultivation talents, but later had no way to cultivate due to various factors.
In this poor country, there is nothing to want. But there are too many ruffians, laizi, and bastards, especially those who don't know a single big word, and after tasting the sweetness a few times with Li Ji, they can't stop wanting it anymore.
They began to grow bigger, and gradually fell in love with this kind of "position" that does not have to hide their heads and attract ridicule, but is swaggering and respectable.
And the project of alchemy with people that first arose was because there was a group of people who were not long-sighted to "oppress" Li Ji.
He was ruthless, so he simply found a group of rabble to inquire about the garbage that had oppressed and trampled on him, and then picked and chose and publicized the bad things they had done.
Even later, he said that he was a "son of heaven", and blatantly said that he would "ask heaven to punish" - if he was a good person, he could practice the golden pill like a Buddhist relic. If it's a bad guy, it's just a pile of ashes.
This matter spread quickly among the villagers, and the old men only felt a sigh in their hearts when they heard it: "This kid is finished"
Not to mention whether there is a demon in his heart, his behavior has completely changed its taste.
No one is qualified to do the right thing for heaven, even if he is the king of heaven.
He's just pulling out a fig leaf for his own selfish desires!
Then a few old men ran to teach him a lesson, but it was counterproductive.
In the middle of the night, they burned people alive.
Later, the old men who found it useless to dissuade them came up with another way. They collected the money, and then helped Li Ji refine the tripod that could really make the golden pill.
Of course, it can't be immortal, it's just an ordinary body-building pill.
In fact, this is also the last hand left by the slippery old men - because at the beginning, Li Ji had no talent in formation, and the black-haired and fat old man didn't like him very much, so he didn't give him a gift.
Now, it has become a life-saving weapon for the people here.
In order not to make Li Ji suspicious, they also quietly added a lot of wound repair medicine to Li Ji's special coma pill, and those that individuals forcibly stuffed into their mouths were also replaced with body-strengthening herbs.
After the formation was activated by the open flame, the people in the furnace would be coerced by the formation and fall to the beach the moment the flames came. The medicinal herbs in the body and mouth cannot be transferred, so they are naturally left in the furnace.
This is also the main reason why some furnaces can be produced by mistake.
"Alas, these are all old man's fault......s! Alas. ”
The thin old man Qin shook the dew on his coat and sighed bitterly with a bitter face.
Qi Yuan was a little dumbfounded, but in the end, he still said good words to appease:
"It's okay, the kid came here after restraining that group. Li Ji: They're all still in the same place as me. As for how to deal with them, it will depend on the attitude of the villagers after the truth of the matter is revealed. ”
"Alas...... Iniquity......"
The black-haired fat old man also sighed and shook his head, and gently handed the tea cup in his hand to Old Man Qin. seems to be wordlessly comforting his brother.
