Chapter 32 Shennong Grass
"Water Ghost Gu?" the fat monk Fang Zheng muttered smoothly, with a rather hilarious rhythm, which I admired very much.
"Yes. Mr. Li's stomach was swollen and bulging in a very different way, and the rest of his body was in a similar condition, and his skin was wrinkled and exuded a fishy smell, as if he had been drowned in water. This situation is exactly the manifestation of the Water Ghost Gu. It is rumored that this water ghost Gu worm was cultivated by parasitic Gu worms in the swollen abdomen of a drowning person, feeding on corpse qi miasma. The middle one will quickly become ill and exhibit the characteristics of a drowned person, eventually dying of an abdominal explosion. I said leisurely, observing the expressions of several people.
Coincidentally, the female ghost's Yin Peach Blossom before, and the Water Ghost Gu this time, I saw it from that tattered slag manuscript. The last time I went from Pengcheng to Wuguan City to rest, I also deliberately found the book and read it carefully, and I also took it with me at the moment, just in case I encountered any means to check it in time, but this trip made me bump into it again, and it was really lucky.
After listening to me, Lin Daoyi immediately spoke: "Mr. Su is really well-informed and knowledgeable. I wonder if there's a way to crack it?"
"Yes, there are ......"
"Please tell me quickly. Lin Dao's tone was anxious, for fear that I would start selling Guanzi again in this stall.
"Senior Lin, I'm not completely sure, and there is always a way to crack it, but it's also as difficult as climbing to the sky. "I have the heart to say that it's the one on the bed, and I don't think it will last until the day I can solve it, but I can't say it too white.
"Mr. Su has a way, you might as well say it directly, you can be absolutely assured in terms of financial and material resources. Lin Dao waved his hand, obviously starting to get impatient.
I didn't mean to delay here, seeing that Lin Daoyi had to break the casserole at this time and ask to the end, so he said: "If you want to break this water ghost Gu, there are only three ways. First, looking for someone who is looking for Gu to beg for mercy is obviously not working at the moment. Second, ask a cultivator with a natal Gu to ask for help, but firstly, I don't know this kind of person, it depends on your resources, and secondly, people may not be willing to stubble this beam. Third," I erected three roots, looked around, and continued: "This third is to use Shennong grass to govern, but this Shennong grass is just a legend, and I don't know how long it will take to find it, and ......" said this, I stopped talking, and everyone present should understand.
The meaning of my words was clear, but Lin Daoyi didn't take it, but asked, "I don't know this Shennong grass?"
"I've only heard about that. I cleared my throat, tried to recall what was written in the book, and said slowly: "Shennong grass, the main tonic of the five internal organs, the spirit of peace, the soul, through yin and yang, the solution of a hundred plagues, the removal of evil spirits, the killing of three insects, to ambush the corpse, the stem is as sharp as lacquer, only two leaves are born, called yin and yang." The yang leaves are nearly a foot long, wide and surplus, flexible as skin, and have yellow hairs on the back. The pubic lobes are short and narrow, like the little finger of a baby, and have white hairs on their backs. On the top of the Bear Mountain, the place where the mountains and rivers are exhausted, look at the moon and appear. ”
I spoke the ancient text in a low tone, but fortunately, I was still young, and my memory was good, so I didn't stumble much.
"Senior Lin, this Shennongcao is said to be on Bear Mountain, and Bear Mountain is now Shennongjia, but this Shennongjia is in and out, and I have to find this legendary Shennongcao, I'm afraid it will be ......" I continued.
As soon as Lin Dao heard what I said, he stood up from his chair, first bowed, and then hugged his fists and said, "Please also ask Mr. Su to go and find Shennong grass quickly, Mr. Li has me here, but I can keep him safe for two weeks." ”
This old guy looked solemn, and he did this ceremony, which made me feel at a loss for an instant.
I could only get up and salute back: "Mr. Lin, I know this matter is anxious, but ......"
Before I could finish speaking, Lin Daoyi waved his hand: "Mr. Su, please rest assured, as long as you can find this Shennong grass, you will be the benefactor of me and the Li family." ”
En, I thought to myself, why don't you say that if you can't find it, what can you do, besides, this huge Shennongjia, don't look back, I didn't find anything when I went in, and people can't get out, wouldn't it be more wronged than Dou E. I was put there by this old man, and I felt a little red and thick-necked, but after thinking about it, people are also dead horses as live horse doctors, I have nothing to do, it is better to go for a trip, not for anything else, in case it happens, this reward will definitely make me wake up laughing in the middle of the night.
So, I put on a bitter gourd face, sighed heavily, and said, "Okay, then let me try." I have another way to temporarily alleviate the symptoms of this water ghost Gu, but I need to prepare first. "I'm not talking nonsense here, the water ghost grass and the method of suppression and relief are all in that book, but the method of relief is a set of spells, and I haven't written it down at all, so I plan to go back to the hotel and sneak it out.
Hearing that I had a way to alleviate it, Lin Daoyi's tight brows instantly stretched a lot: "There is Mr. Lao." ”
After the general explanation of the matter, Lin Daoyi told us to go back first, and come back early tomorrow morning. Later, the three of us were taken out of the room by the man who led the way before, and I learned that this man was a housekeeper, and he was the same family as the head of the house five hundred years ago, and had the same surname.
On the way back to the hotel from Li's house, there was silence again, I don't know what the two masters thought, but I'm still a little embarrassed, after all, everyone is professional, and as a result, I was cut off by a warlock.
When I returned to the hotel, I hurriedly took out the tattered manuscript, compared the description of the water ghost Gu in the book, and found that the symptoms were consistent with Mr. Li's.
According to the book, this water ghost Gu can be solved by taking Shennong grass internally and externally, but the thought of finding Shennong grass makes me have a little headache. In our business, maybe the earlier masters know a little bit of medical skills, after all, they have to alchemy and take medicine. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Ge Hongxian also wrote a medical book "Behind the Elbow", which shows the close relationship between Taoism and medicine in the early days. As a studious warlock, I have also read some such books, including "Shennong's Materia Medica", "Compendium of Materia Medica", etc., but unfortunately this kind of thing is really impossible to touch without effort. In addition, I grew up in the city, and there are basically few names for flowers, trees, snakes, birds, fish, insects and so on.
However, the record of Shennongcao in this manuscript only has words, no pictures, and I may not recognize it if it is really placed in front of me. But to catch the ducks on the shelves, since I have been relieved, I can only take one step at a time, and it is a big deal to go out on an adventure.
After the debate in my head was over, I began to draw talismans again according to the method of alleviating the water ghost Gu recorded in the book.
This spell system is also quite strange, not like the Taoist inheritance, nor the folk Chenzhou talisman, and the spell of Zhu Youshu that I have seen is not the same, but it is a bit like the kind of ghost talisman that Zhang Lao blindly painted on Fort Mountain at that time.
I can only start copying it myself, and I have drawn it seven or eight times, just like the graffiti of kindergarten children, and I can't see a little spiritual power.
But at that time, 13 was already installed, and if I didn't come up with something tomorrow morning, I would definitely have to make Lin Daoyi think that I was brain-dead, so I had to draw it over and over again. Fortunately, practice makes perfect, and when I was almost finished drawing all the rune paper I had brought, I finally picked out two that looked pleasing to the eye. As for the efficacy, we can only talk about it tomorrow morning. Lin Daoyi himself boasted that Haikou could buy Mr. Li time, so my side was the best to be able to do it, not to pull it down.
After finishing this little thing, I looked at the time, and it was actually tossed until two o'clock in the morning, so I hurriedly took off my pants and went to bed to recharge for tomorrow's things.
