Chapter 80: The Old Gourd
This Hundred Flowers Killing Position Card makes everyone very curious, because it is the first time I have come into contact with things related to Daci Pavilion, and it is such a high-level position card at the beginning. Cui Rutie was amazed by Ji Bei's special armor, thinking that it could be seen that the strength of the Daci Pavilion was unfathomable.
Long Bao said disapprerovingly, "Maybe the entire Daci Pavilion is just like this, let that old bastard in Jibei go out and wear it." They knew that Brother Lin had the Vermilion Bird Fire, so of course they had to guard against it. ”
Xue, who had suffered a big loss, screamed, "Daci Pavilion are all bad people, little dad is going to kill them!"
"Shut up!" Long Bao scolded, "Every time you make trouble! If you look at chrysanthemums and prosperous wealth, you will never block the second master!"
Xue's clothes hung her head and cried again. Yi Dasho took her in his arms and gently comforted her.
Mao Juhua was very interested in the Hundred Flowers Killing brand, and looked at it again and again in her hand, looking confused.
Long Bao is disdainful of it, and if he fights, he will fight in groups, which is true, but if he finds someone from Daci Pavilion to help him, then he is absolutely unwilling. He stayed in the immortal medicine gate for a long time and felt a little bored, so he took Hu Wangcai, Mao Juhua, and Cui Rutie to the nearby immortal medicine market.
The immortal medicine market was originally just a medicinal material trading market gradually formed because of the rise of the immortal medicine gate, and later because of the frequent exchanges between mortals and monks here, it gradually evolved into a large bazaar across the borders of the three kingdoms of Great Qin, Great Wei and Great Korea, but the name has not changed, and it is still called the immortal medicine market. As soon as you enter the market, you will be surrounded by butcher shops, silk and satin shops, pulp washing shops, garment shops, jewelry shops, seafood and fish restaurants, pharmacies, weapons shops, longevity shops, fat powder shops, pill shops, restaurants... There are all kinds of colors, like a rich and prosperous atmosphere. Gold, silver and spirit stones can be circulated and used, and there are even a small number of shops that also accept black magic stones and blue magic stones. Long Bao was full of interest, took Hu Wangcai and them to walk the streets and alleys, ate a lot of mortal delicacies, watched a lot of novel juggling, singing and dancing, and masked performances of gods and demons, and felt the beauty of human life.
However, the Longyuan Continent is the cultivation continent in the end, and a large part of the mortals in the bazaar are also in the first and second stages of qi refining. Although these people don't have any spiritual roots, they may have other opportunities, such as occasional pills, immortal grass, etc., so they have barely stepped into the threshold of cultivation, relying on doing some business in the immortal medicine market in exchange for spiritual stone cultivation... At least in terms of lifespan, this kind of Qi Refiner has fifty or sixty years longer than mortals who do not cultivate, and they do not suffer from illness.
This place is adjacent to the Great Wei Kingdom, Cui Rutie was originally a Wei person, and he knew a lot about this area, and acted as a tour guide along the way. To his surprise, under a centuries-old willow tree, he saw a blacksmith that was exactly the same as his blacksmith's... The size, style and position of the stove, bellows, large iron piers, and sinks, as well as the placement of all kinds of ironware on the long table at the door, are all completely identical; the iron piers are square, the sinks are round, and there is a small wooden table in the corner of the shop, on which is placed a yellow-brown wine gourd full of fine weathering lines... It's just that the blacksmith is an old man who looks like he is old, but his weight and quenching posture and habits when striking iron are similar to his own back then.
Cui Rutie was stunned and looked at it for a long time. The old blacksmith finished his work, walked to the shop to drink saliva, and when he raised his eyes and saw him, his cloudy old eyes suddenly glowed with a strange light, and shouted: "Master, you are back!" Seeing that Cui Rutie's master was confused, he added excitedly, "I am Li Ergou, the little worker who worked in the blacksmith under the willow tree back then... They all said that you went to become an immortal, and sure enough, more than a hundred years later, you are still so young!"
"Two... Dog?" Cui Rutie came back to his senses and looked him up and down, it was the third phase of qi refining, and the expiration date was approaching, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the drooping child of the year had become a yellow-haired old man, the red dust and turbid world, and a hundred years were really like the gap of a white horse.
Li Ergou told Cui Rutie about the general experience after parting: since Cui Rutie left in a hurry, he has been transferred to the fairy medicine market several times, and he has been making a living for people in this market; A person like him, who can only strike iron and doesn't know how to refine tools, is really difficult to support. Li Ergou was not surprised to learn that Long Bao was Cui Rutie's owner. Although he was only in the early stage of qi refining, he had been striking iron in this immortal medicine market where immortals and mortals had been striking iron for nearly a hundred years, and he was extremely knowledgeable, as soon as he saw Hu Wangcai and Mao Juhua, he knew that they were high-level demon cultivators, and their words and attitudes were only servants, so he knew that the origin of Long Bao was definitely unusual.
After saying his hard work, Li Ergou knelt down and begged Long Bao to take him in, and Long Bao happily agreed: he didn't mind that there was one more blacksmith shop in the small world and one more builder.
The question of Li Ergou's lifespan is not a difficult matter in Long Bao's eyes. He saw the old gourd in the corner of the house, put it in his mouth, and spit it out after a few breaths, which was already full of a mixture of Baihua wine and Xianwang Lake water. Considering that Li Ergou was only in the Qi refining period, it was very likely that the pure Baihua Wine would not be able to withstand it, so he specially gave him immortal water, and explained to him the method of taking, absorbing and operating. Li Ergou thanked him and kowtowed.
This gourd was left by Cui Rutie to Li Ergou back then, and it was also a gift from the purple flue people of Dianxiamen. That one. Cui Rutie rubbed this gourd, and his heart fluctuated. This old gourd covered with spider web-like cracks looks unremarkable, there is no trace of spiritual power fluctuations on the surface, and no one will notice it if it is thrown on the road, and the only special thing is that there is a circular seal carving at the bottom of the gourd, and there are two ancient characters in the circle: Guizang.
Cui Rutie had seen these two words before, but he didn't care about them, imagining that they were the real names of the people in the Purple Smoke Path or the name of an alchemy room, but now that they look at it, they feel a little weird. Could it be that this is something that the founding ancestor of the Holy Lotus Sect has sealed and returned to Tibet? If so, how did it end up in the hands of the Purple Smoke Dao people?
Long Bao suddenly said: "Li Ergou's name is too spoofed! That Ya taming, why don't you change your name?"
Mao Juhua and Hu Wangcai secretly slandered: What kind of "elegant" name can you choose? Naturally, they praised, "The name chosen by the second master must be very elegant!" Li Ergou also thanked him happily.
Long Bao bone-studded his big eyes and said, "It's called... Li Duoshou!"
Hu Wangcai and Mao Juhua sneered in their hearts, but Li Ergou was very satisfied, for his imminent limit and the slightest inability to improve his realm, it was really his biggest heart disease, and being able to "live longer" was the biggest beautiful thing.
Long Bao plans to continue shopping, and plans to come back and take Li Ergou away, no, Li Duoshou when he has had enough. Cui Rutie is a caring person, and he left a talisman for Li Duoshou, and if necessary, he can be transferred to Cui Rutie's side immediately, and the Yuanying monk can't be intercepted.
Li Duoshou didn't expect that Long Bao would be gone for two months, because Long Bao was obsessed with the opera from the Great Chu Kingdom, this kind of lively drama wearing masks, beating gongs and drums, and simple plots attracted him, so he simply sprinkled a lot of spirit stones, chartered the stage, and mixed with those actors day and night. Later, he, Hu Wangcai, and Mao Juhua contracted almost all the roles such as Shengdan Jing Choumo, and Cui Rutie of Mu Ne was responsible for beating the drums; The tireless Long Bao has simply reached the pinnacle level of the performing arts industry in the Longyuan Continent.
He also had an idea: Long Lin is from the Great Chu Kingdom, and when he learns the opera, he can play it for the other party... The thought of Long Lin's surprise and laughter made Long Bao endlessly motivated.
One day, just as Cui Ru was about to start the play with a big gong with a wooden face, suddenly there was a sudden "boom", a golden light flashed, and a man covered in blood fell in front of him, crushing a big drum and startling everyone. Cui Rutie saw that it was Li Duoshou!
Li Duoshou didn't know what he had experienced, he was very seriously injured, half of his teeth were knocked out, several ribs were broken, and his right arm was cut off... Cui Rutie hurriedly helped him up, stuffed a healing pill, and urged spiritual power to introduce the pill into his body. Depending on the situation, even if he can barely save his life, he will never think that he will be able to improve his realm in the future.
Long Bao took off his mask, rushed over to take a look, couldn't help but be furious, dark clouds rolled on his little face, and said, "Old Cui, wake him up and ask him, who did it?"
Cui Rutie diagnosed him with internal breathing, and felt that the spiritual power that had dissipated from exhaustion had gathered slightly, but it was still weak, and the meridians in his body were disordered and retrograde, and there were dead knots everywhere, with his ability, he probably couldn't save him, so he could only bring it back to the immortal medicine gate first, and ask Chen Xingmiao to find a way.
