Chapter 32: The Past
Under the urging of the mysterious technique of "Blazing Flame Sutra", the cold qi outside Lin Jun's dantian was finally exhausted, and Lin Jun began to mobilize the blazing breath in the dantian, impacting the meridians and limbs around his body, and the pain like cramping and peeling his skin came from all over his body. At this time, Lin Jun had completely fallen to the ground, relying on the only little consciousness left in the spiritual platform, mobilizing the "Blazing Flame Sutra" to fight against the domineering cold qi in his body.
Sure enough, it had an effect, and Lin Jun's body began to bubble out with white qi from top to bottom, this white qi accumulated more and more in the room, and it became thicker and thicker, but Lin Jun was still silently exercising, trying to force out all the cold qi in his body.
This cold air is not only a breath, but also a terrifying energy, after silting up in the room to a certain extent, only to hear a loud bang, a puff of white smoke rose up, Lin Jun's small stone house was half blown down, the roof was lifted into the air, far away.
At this time, Lin Jun's clothes on his body were blown up. Although the Qiankun bag he got from Steward Zhao was preserved, Deacon Liu's ordinary storage bag was immediately blown into powder, and Lin Jun was covered in blood, and his whole person was like a blood gourd.
The loud noise here alarmed Zhao Sheng and Chen Wu, who were already asleep, and they rushed out of the room, and by the bright moonlight, they saw that most of the place where Lin Jun lived had collapsed and had turned into a large pile of rubble. Zhao Sheng and Chen Wu hurriedly ran over, and after removing the rubble and rubble, they found Lin Jun who was covered in blood and was already dying.
When Lin Jun woke up again, he found himself lying on a comfortable wooden bed. Although the mattress under him and the quilt he covered were all woven from coarse cloth, the pulp was clean and spotless.
Lin Jun wanted to move his body, but found that he was wrapped in all kinds of bandages like rice dumplings, and then he realized that he was full of wounds.
At this time, the door "creaked" open, and I saw a pretty figure walking over, holding a coarse porcelain bowl in his hand, and the heat was steaming inside.
Walking up, Lin Jun took a closer look, and this person was Zhao Sheng's wife Xiulian. If you look at it according to age, Lin Jun should call Xiulian a grandmother, but after taking Zhuyan Pill, no matter how you look at it, she is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child. Therefore, Lin Jun, who knew that they were much older, simply called Zhao Sheng and Zhang Wu the eldest brothers, and called their wives sisters-in-law.
Seeing Xiulian walking up, Lin Jun said, "Sister-in-law." What's wrong with me, how did I get to be like this?"
Xiulian moved a wooden stool and placed it next to the bed, and then, with a small wooden spoon, scooped a spoonful of hot soup in a porcelain bowl, blew it gently, and sent it into Lin Jun's mouth.
When the hot soup was entered, Lin Jun felt that the taste was a little strange, but he was very thirsty, so he continued to drink more than a dozen spoonfuls.
Xiulian said while feeding Lin Jun: "This soup has a few herbs in it, it is good for your injury, you drink more." You too, why are you so reckless? Don't you even want your life for the sake of practicing? You think about it, is it your life that is important, or is the exercise important? If your life is gone, what is the use of the best exercises?"
Lin Jun looked at Xiulian in front of him and thought: If you don't know her real age, a little girl who is so big will definitely feel weird if she says these old-fashioned words.
Lin Jun smiled, but the pain of a knife and axe immediately came from his face, it turned out that the explosion at that time was too powerful, and the true qi in his body that could not be fused with his body at all by swallowing the Qi Condensing Pill exploded from his body. If he didn't use the "Blazing Flame Sutra" to forcibly force this true qi out of his body, then he would not be injured, but would die directly on the spot.
Lin Jun's face cracked a few times, so he didn't dare to let his expression be too exaggerated, Lin Jun said softly: "Thank you, brother, and sister-in-law for saving me." ”
Xiulian said: "Thank you, isn't that too much to see? We are in the Divine Medicine Valley, all we can see are those familiar faces, seeing you coming, it is too late for a few of us to rejoice, we still want to hear you tell us about the things outside." Therefore, you were so seriously injured that day, how could we not save you from dying? We have only been growing herbs here for decades, and we do not know how to make alchemy, and we do not have any pills in our hands, but we have some herbs that can heal our wounds, so we put them in soup and boiled them for you to drink, but the effect of this is much worse than that of pills. Seeing that your injuries have not improved, early in the morning, my man went to the Alchemy Hall to get some pills for you to come back. ”
While speaking, Zhao Sheng came back from outside. After entering the door, I saw two obvious palm prints on Zhao Sheng's face, a few footprints on the clothes on his chest, and a little abrasion on Zhao Sheng's forehead.
Zhao Sheng sat on the chair angrily and said again and again: "I look down on people too much, I look down on people too much." ”
Xiulian hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Master, how did you become like this, what happened?"
Zhao Sheng said: "I ran to the Alchemy Hall early in the morning, wanting to ask for some healing pills for Brother Lin. One of the deacons who was guarding the door said that he could not do such a thing, and that he had to tell the steward and let me wait outside the temple. ”
As a result, I waited for an hour or two at the gate of the temple, and finally the steward came. After the steward heard about this, he didn't even look at me, saying that the waste people also deserve to take pills, and also said that I was under the guise of looking for pills, and wanted to go to the Alchemy Hall to steal things, and wanted to forcibly search my body, I reasoned with them for a few words, and they swarmed me up, beat me out, and after beating me away, the steward also set a rule for the people below, saying that I and other waste people who grow herbs should not be close to the gate of the Alchemy Hall at a distance of 500 steps. Also, the steward scolded us who were guarding the medicine garden for being turtles who only knew how to dig the soil. ”
Lin Jun said: "Brother Zhao is a good man who stands up to the sky, and he takes care of the herb garden so well, how can you say that you are a wasted person? Isn't this nonsense?"
At this time, Xiulian's eyes were already full of tears, and she said: "Those people call us wasters, but they actually mention our sadness. ”
Zhao Sheng said: "It's been decades, and what are you doing about those things." ”
Xiulian said: "Lin Jun is not an outsider, so why talk about it?"
Then, Xiulian told Lin Jun about the past decades ago.
It turned out that the four of them were also disciples of the inner gate of the Zizhu Sect, but after cultivating in the inner gate for a few years, their cultivation never reached the level of the fifth layer of the forging body realm, and they faced the same problem as Lin Jun at that time, that is, they were eliminated from the inner gate. However, several of them were unwilling to be eliminated from the inner door like this, and were begging everywhere, hoping to stay in the inner door. Suddenly, an elder from the Divine Medicine Valley came here, and this elder was none other than the current Great Elder Xie Yukun. Xie Yukun told them that he was now refining a peculiar elixir that required the use of human roots and bones as a medicine. As everyone knows, if a person wants to practice the Fa, the quality of his roots and bones directly determines the future of his cultivation. If this person's bones are taken out, although it will not cost him his life, his cultivation will stop there.
Xie Yukun found Zhao Sheng and Chen Wu, as well as the two sisters Xiulian and Xiumei, who had also made no progress in their cultivation, and clearly wanted to use their roots and bones as a medicine guide. At the same time, in return, Xie Yukun will take them to the Divine Medicine Valley of Zizhumen's Holy Land and give them special elixirs, so that they can live a long life, or even a few hundred years old. Moreover, the work given to them is not heavy, they only need to help Xie Yukun take care of the medicine garden.
The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, and the phoenix that fell on the shelf was not as good as a chicken. However, all the disciples who were eliminated from the inner gate of Zizhu Gate, if they returned to the outer gate again, they would generally be looked down upon coldly by others, and they would be assigned extremely poor work, and they would never have a day to come out as a poor coolie all their lives.
Zhao Sheng, Chen Wu, Xiulian and Xiumei didn't want to be eliminated, so they agreed to Xie Yukun's conditions and followed Xie Yukun to the Divine Medicine Valley. If the bones are removed, the vitality of the body will be greatly damaged, and the appearance will also age rapidly. So Xie Yukun asked the four of them to take Zhuyan Pill. Since then, their appearance has always stayed at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Xie Yukun does what he says, he has always been good to them for so many years, and regularly gives them pills to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives. So for decades, the four of them have lived a stable, healthy and healthy life in this medicine garden. After the four of them were removed from their bones, they also lost the ability to have children, so for decades, this medicine garden has always been the four of them, and there has been no addition.
