Chapter 126: Deception
To be clear: Qigong is a unique golden finger of the book.

"You injured your aorta this time, and although you have recovered, you have lost too much blood and your vitality is badly damaged. According to traditional Chinese medicine, it is a great loss of essence and qi, and this kind of injury will damage the life expectancy, and it is difficult to do it if you want to replenish it with ordinary methods, and you can't do it without taking a big tonic. ”
Hearing this, Wei Xiong thought to himself: No wonder I felt a lot worse in physical strength when I was doing things in the past two days, and I thought it was not good. Then he suddenly reacted, pointed to the blood ginseng and said, "You mean it's for me to eat? 500 years, wouldn't this be too extravagant?"
Silently looking at the blood ginseng in the jade box, Wei Hongdao turned around and looked at the dark night outside the window: "Back then, my great-grandfather, that is, your great-grandfather Wei Qian, was the imperial doctor in the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty, from Emperor Daoguang to Emperor Xianfeng, a total of almost 40 years as an imperial doctor. ”
"In 1860, during the Second Opium War, the British and French troops invaded the city of Beijing, at that time the whole palace was in chaos, even Emperor Xianfeng fled to the summer resort in Chengde, and your great-grandfather also escaped from the palace at that time, and this blood ginseng was brought out of the palace. ”
It turned out to be something in the palace, no wonder Wei Hongdao had such a rare treasure, but in this way, this blood ginseng has been kept in his house for at least 100 years, so many years, why has no one eaten it?
"Carefully calculated, there are more than 120 years, in order to better preserve this blood ginseng, your great-grandfather also spent a lot of money to make this jade box of mutton fat white jade, and now more than 120 years have passed, the blood ginseng is still full of aura, as if it has just been dug out. ”
"You must be very curious why no one has eaten him for 120 years, just because of your great-grandfather's deathbed words, he said that this blood ginseng is a spiritual creature of heaven and earth, a treasure in the world, and it is not edible for people who are not rich and noble, otherwise it will not benefit from it, but will suffer from it. ”
Wei Xiong's head was full of black lines in an instant, just because of such a god's chatter, such a treasure has been preserved like this for more than 120 years, can it be a little more ridiculous: "Dad, you are also a person who has read books, you won't believe this kind of obviously deceiving children, right?"
"What do you mean by deceiving children? The 5,000-year history of the Chinese nation is vast and profound, and how can a child like you understand it? ”
Wei Xiong really wanted to slap himself twice, knowing that the old man was feudal, and he didn't choose what to say. Just wanted to divert the topic, Wei Hongdao spoke again: "But the number of fates is too mysterious, and it can't be trusted." Besides, it may just be your great-grandfather's casual remark on his deathbed. ”
To put it bluntly, you don't believe it, so why beat around the bush. Wei Xiong couldn't help but secretly slander himself in his heart, he looked at it carefully, and suddenly thought of a question: "500-year-old blood ginseng, I haven't heard of it, what will happen if I eat it?
After all, it is more than 100 years old, and it has become an antique, who knows if it will deteriorate, and he is really a little worried about being deeply educated in science.
"What nonsense, there is a box made of high-grade mutton fat and white jade to preserve, even if it is another 100 years, there is no problem, how can there be an expiration date. As for the specific efficacy, it is very different from ordinary ginseng, it is a yang thing, and other Chinese medicines need to be used to reconcile the medicinal properties. ”
"So from tomorrow onwards you have to go home and sleep, and before you go to bed, drink a bowl of medicinal soup that I boiled for you, and divide such a large ginseng into at least seven times. ”
As he spoke, Wei Hongdao re-closed the jade box along with the wooden box outside, and then put it back in the cabinet: "Do you remember the mantra I taught you when I was a child?"
Wei Xiong was stunned for a while before he remembered that when he was a child, Wei Hongdao taught him a set of ancestral qigong of the Wei family, which is divided into external and internal skills, that is, boxing and meditation and breathing methods. According to Wei Hongdao's boasting, this set of Wei family's ancestral qigong can be practiced to a high depth, and the life span has risen sharply, and the six senses are clear. This means that not only does it live much longer than ordinary people, but even its eyes, ears, and even telepathy are far beyond ordinary people.
But in fact, Wei Hongdao has practiced for decades, and he has not cultivated any fame, at most, it is good for health, that's all.
"Remember, you're not going to let me practice, are you? No, Dad, this thing of qigong is a lie, and you yourself are the best proof of it. ”
Hearing this, Wei Hongdao was really unhappy, only to see him frown: "What is a deception? Our Wei family has been inherited for more than 200 years, and there are more than 10 people who have lived to be 90 years old, and there are several people who have passed the age of 100. If it weren't for the war, your grandfather would have died early at eighty. ”
"And your grandfather has already cultivated qi, through which his acupuncture and massage techniques are widely spread in the mainland of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which are all proof of the real existence of qigong. Don't just believe in science all day long, the world is so big, how can science explain everything?"
Although he was surprised by the longevity of his ancestors, Wei Xiong still disagreed with Wei Hongdao's words, but seeing Wei Hongdao's frowning brows, he would not be so stupid to refute again, and nodded honestly: "Okay, I listen to you, you can do whatever you say." ”
At this time, Wei Hongdao's anger disappeared a little: "Although there are records in the medical books about blood ginseng and even yang things, and the method of harmonizing and taking it, this blood ginseng is 500 years old, and I am worried that the medicinal effect is too strong, so every time you drink the medicinal soup, you use the mantra I taught you to meditate and practice." ”
is still cultivating, I really think it's the cultivation of internal skills in martial arts novels. Wei Xiong wanted to complain, but he wisely didn't do it: "I know, I'll go home and sleep tomorrow night, is there nothing else?" ”
……
On the way, Wei Xiong looked at the car and looked back at Li Jiaxin with a happy face a few times, and finally couldn't help asking, "You seem to be in a good mood?"
"Of course, my aunt has talked a lot to me, and I can see that she likes me very much. That's right......" Li Jiaxin opened her handbag and took out a jewelry box from it, which was the one Lin Xueli gave her: "This bracelet was given to me by your mother just now." ”
"I heard that it is a family heirloom treasure of your family, I didn't want to accept it, but your mother has been stuffing it into me, or will you help me go back?"
Wei Xiong glanced at the bracelet in the jewelry box and said with a smile: "It seems that my mother really likes you, and even took out the things in her own small treasure house and gave them to you, no mistake, this is the first time." Since she gave it to you, you can take it, not for outsiders anyway. ”
"Then I'll take it. Li Jiaxin happily put the jewelry box back in the bag, and just raised her head to find that the car was parked, through the window, it looked remote outside, only dim street lights, and other than that, there was no one, no car, and I didn't know where it was.
"What are you doing here? Li Jiaxin snorted the spirit, because Wei Xiong suddenly put his hand on her thigh, and gradually went up......
