237 [The Advantages and Disadvantages of Immortality

"Old Cui, Old Cui, where are you hiding?"

When the things were in hand, Yuan Pengfei went to Cui Wenzi's pharmacy where he made medicine every day to find him as soon as he came back, but today he was unexpectedly absent, if it weren't for the fact that those medicinal materials were there, he would have thought that Lao Cui had run away.

Just as he walked out of the house and wanted to look for someone all over the yard, Cui Wenzi's face was full of alcohol, and he staggered back from outside, "You kid, what do you tell me to do, you got the things?" ”

Yuan Pengfei took out the bottle from his arms and shook it, "Black Wind's blood is here!" But before we give it to you, we'll have to have a good talk. ”

It's not that he can't trust Cui Wenzi, but it's about his task, and it's not a big mistake to be careful.

"Okay, let's talk in this courtyard." Cui Wenzi took a sip of the wine in the gourd without care, and sat on the stone bench in the courtyard and waited for the next step.

Yuan Pengfei felt that he might really be a little villainous, chuckled, sat on the stone bench and said lightly: "Old Cui, haven't you always been curious about why I'm looking for you, let's not hide it today, let's talk openly and honestly." ”

"You say." Cui Wenzi opened his hazy drunken eyes, lifted his spirits and looked at Yuan Pengfei seriously.

"Old Cui, have you heard of the elixir?"

"Hmm, elixir?" Cui Ziwen was excited, and the drunkenness disappeared in an instant, "You said elixir, you really dare to think about it!" ”

Yuan Pengfei said with a smile: "Among the people I have seen, the most skilled person in medicine is Lao Cui, so there is no one else who can research the elixir except you."

And I'm sure you must be very interested in researching elixirs, don't say you haven't thought about it. ”

Yuan Pengfei held him so high, Cui Ziwen was a little surprised, and then thought of the relationship between Yuan Pengfei and Yi Xiaochuan, and suddenly nodded a little understanding.

He said eloquently: "How could I not have thought about the development of the elixir. It's just a medicinal herb for preparing an elixir, and in my imagination, it must be a rare medicine. The essence blood of the black wind is the main medicinal material of this flavor medicine. In addition, there is still a lack of rare treasure medicine, and there is no clue for the time being. ”

Everyone in the world has ideals, some want to dominate the world, some want to make meritorious contributions, some want to be rich in the world, and some want to change the world......... There are those who help the world, and there are also those who want to open up and innovate.

Cui Ziwen is undoubtedly the latter two, practicing medicine all over the world, countless living people, and the more incurable the disease, the more interested he is in treating it. He was even more interested in this elixir that only existed in legends.

What a great thing it would be if he could study it, and the sense of accomplishment it gave him was immeasurable.

Regarding another rare medicine, Yuan Pengfei has a clue, in the thirty-sixth year of Qin Shi Huang, a meteor fell to Dongjun. A rumor was made, and a bloody case was made.

The meteor was brought to Qin Shi Huang's underground palace, and the powder of the meteor was this rare medicine.

But it's still a little early, and it's useless to say more. Yuan Pengfei took out another bottle of Black Wind Treasure Blood from his arms, and pushed the two bottles in front of Cui Ziwen together, "Old Cui, two bottles of Black Wind Blood, Meng Tian is in a hurry, his horse is not honest, I tried my best." ”

Cui Wenzi took the bottle, uncorked it and checked the authenticity, and couldn't put it down and said three "good" in a row.

"Hey, by the way, I fought with Meng Tian, didn't you get hurt?" Cui Ziwen stood up and looked around him, trying to see something.

"Lao Cui, I feel uncomfortable when you see it." Yuan Pengfei pushed him back to the stone bench, and said with a smile: "If you want to say that there is a loss, it is that there is a loss of food at home, Xiong Tian has spent a lot of strength, and it is estimated that he has to eat ten people's meals to fill his stomach, and he is still eating at home!" ”

Regarding Xiong Tian's appetite, Cui Ziwen has also studied it, he smiled and shook his head, "Xiong Tian's appetite is also a big strange, he can eat, drink and digest, no different from a normal person."

But this shortcoming is nothing compared to his brute strength, and you kid don't get cheap and sell well. ”

That's right, the right ability has to be put in the right place, as long as you can make full use of it and play, that consumption is really nothing.

Yuan Pengfei smiled and bypassed the topic, "Lao Cui, let's still talk about elixir, if you research it, will you choose to take one and get immortality?" ”

Cui Ziwen shook his head, "No, I'm only interested in researching elixirs, not in immortality." ”

When these words came out, Yuan Pengfei was shocked. Is there anyone in the world who doesn't want to live forever?

What does it mean to be immortal, to have endless time to squander, to do whatever you want, how wonderful it is!

And as a researcher of elixir, Cui Ziwen wants to get a pill of elixir, that is a matter of raising his hand, it couldn't be simpler. Do you have to give up such an opportunity?

Yuan Pengfei asked the doubts in his heart.

Cui Ziwen smiled and gave his answer.

If you want to live forever, it is not enough to have an immortal body, you must also have a heart worthy of immortality.

If you don't have the heart worthy of immortality, after taking the elixir, your face will remain forever, and you will be immortal, you will probably be very happy at first, but after a long time, there will be endless suffering.

Loneliness, watching relatives and friends leave one by one, and then continuing to meet new friends, after a few generations of people around you, emotions will gradually become numb.

Without someone to communicate with, I begin to feel endless loneliness, which is an extreme confusion and pain, followed by infinite numbness, and immortality can be regarded as an inhuman torture.

In those legendary stories, why do immortals stay in the heavenly realm, why do immortals regard mortals as ants, why do they want to be in heaven for a day and on earth for a year?

I'm afraid these are all the troubles of immortality.

This also shows that the ancients thought about this aspect and gave the gods in these stories a very reasonable setting.

When life expectancy is endless, people will eagerly pursue their dreams and experience the beauty of life. But if the life span is not endless, if there is no ideal goal, what is the purpose of living numbly?

Immortals may also have long lost the hope of living, but will live numbly, like a puppet and a puppet.

A hundred years of life itself is very good, the world has experienced the seven emotions and six desires, understood the eight hardships of life, loved and hated have passed, a hundred years later, a loess, it should be a long vacation, relax and rest, everything is perfect.

If you think about it, immortality is not necessarily a good thing, but it may also be a big bad thing.

But why, do people still want to live forever?

Alive, there are more desires to be satisfied, and more beauty to enjoy.

It is by nature that people fear death.

No money is too long, and money is too short.

There are many, many reasons.

To sum up, immortality is a sweet and then bitter thing, how much sweetness you enjoy in the front, how much loneliness you have to endure in the back, there are pros and cons.

For Yuan Pengfei, he has too many wonderful worlds to experience, and too many new lives to experience. A hundred years of life is too short, and a long life span is a boon for him, so he is bound to get the elixir.

But for some, immortality is a pain.

Chang'e secretly ate the elixir and left Houyi alone in the world.

Let's not talk about love, Chang'e only has the Jade Rabbit by her side in the Moon Palace, she is lonely and lonely, and she is afraid that she will not feel good in her heart.

If there was no Jade Rabbit, she would have been crazy a long time ago.

At this time, a more vicious plan sprouted in his heart, and if he loved him, he would give him the elixir of life and enjoy the prosperity of the world. hated him and gave him the elixir of life, and the whole world endured the taste of loneliness.

Side quests also follow,

"Ding, I feel that the side quest has appeared: the difficulty of the elixir, send the elixir to your enemy Heifu, and make him face a difficult choice."

If he was sleepy, he gave him a pillow, and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Pengfei's mouth.

Give this question to Heifu, there is only one elixir, then only one person can live forever. Watching other loved ones slowly age and die, this pain is probably only understood by those who have experienced it firsthand.

Hey, hey!

………

A month later, Gao Yao inquired about the news that Heifu was transferred to Jiaodong as a county guard. It is unknown whether there is a force from the Meng family behind this.

In addition, Gao Yao did lock Liu Ji. After he gained power, there were many people in the palace who befriended him, found out the ins and outs of the beginning, and even got the roster of the original conscription.

On the list of deaths he wrote, Liu Ji's name was at the top, second only to the eunuch who castrated him in the first place.

There was nothing to do in Xianyang, Yuan Pengfei simply sold him a favor and decided to help him get rid of Liu Ji and avenge him.

As for the original plan against Heifu, he was not ready to change it, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to it. If Gao wants to become Zhao Gao, sooner or later he will have to confront these ministers in the court, and he doesn't need to say anything to Heifu, Gao Yao will naturally do it.

He just reminded Gao to know that Heifu is a traverser, and he is a cunning and black-hearted traverser.

In this way, it is fairer for the two of them to intrigue with each other. After all, Zhao Gao's big scourge is too famous, and Heifu will definitely be careful.

"Hey, sir, let's go to Pei County." Xiong Tian pointed to the big characters on the city gate, and he was already drooling, "Sir, you said that the dog meat in Pei County is a must, how is it better than what we have eaten in other places?" ”

"You fool, if you want to eat dog meat, just say it, don't go around in circles with me."

Xiong Tian smiled and stopped talking, Yuan Pengfei glanced at him, led the horse and walked directly ahead. Along the way, it is also appropriate to go to the place to enjoy some food.

Thanks to Liu Ji's blessing, the reputation of Peixian dog meat was spread in later generations. However, at this time, Liu Ji has not yet made a fortune, but is equivalent to the pavilion chief of the rural cadres, and this Pei County is still just a place with an infamous reputation.

Of course, the taste of dog meat is indeed not bad, especially the black dog meat, which not only has the effect of ordinary dog meat, but also nourishes the temperature and kidneys and helps yang, and can also remove evil!

Xiong Tian was busy eating dog meat, and Yuan Pengfei was full, so he asked the guest next to him, "Friend, it's polite." When I first came to Guidi, I heard that there is a righteous man named Liu Ji here who likes to make friends...... Can you help me out? ”

The man looked at him and laughed fiercely, "Friend, Liu Ji is about to develop, if you want to get to know him, you have to do it as soon as possible." Moreover, it is more convenient for you to go directly to the store Cao's, you say yes! ”

The young man sitting opposite him was even more arrogant, and beckoned to the Cao family who was busy with his work, "Cao family, looking for your man." ”

Cao Shi glanced at him, "What's the matter, Liu Ji is not dead yet, what can he do if he marries the eldest lady of the Lu family, he still has to come, don't splash it on the old lady, be careful of your skin." ”

The young man smiled wryly, grabbed the dog meat on the table, and pretended to eat it, as if it was not him who spoke just now.

Liu Ji's majesty can be seen.

As the founder of the Han Empire, many of his materials were picked up and put on the Internet. Yuan Pengfei occasionally flipped through his mobile phone, and he also knew something about him.

Liu Ji is lazy, likes to make friends, and has a position as a pavilion chief, which is also a bit powerful in the local area.

When he was forty years old, he was still an old bachelor. But there is no way to suppress this big matter of men and women, there must be an outlet.

The Cao family, who runs a dog meat stall on the street, has no man, and he is still a half-old with charm. In this kind of patriarchal society, it is inconvenient for a woman to show her face, so she took Liu Ji's line.

And Liu Ji, thinking that he could eat and drink again, and that he could have one more lover who knew cold and hot, and the two hit it off. It is said that this Cao family also gave birth to a son to Liu Ji!

However, the things in history are true and false, and the truth is not clear. After many irresponsible Internet editors add oil and vinegar, it is even more foggy, and some information is more accurate to inquire in person.

The topic he had just introduced made the guests at the next table talk about it, and he pricked up his ears to listen.

"Alas, why do you say that Liu Ji is so good, Lu Gong is a big family, and when he first moved here, the county order gave him a cheer, why do you want to marry your daughter to Liu Ji now, it's a pity."

"You're right, if you want me to say, marrying us is better than marrying Liu Ji, he is a 40-year-old old bachelor, and he still competes with us for women, it really shouldn't be."

"Yes, I also met the eldest lady of the Lu family a few days ago, that long, thief is energetic, like a fairy, 100 times stronger than the yellow-faced women in your family."

"Who says it's not, not to mention that the eldest lady of the Lu family is as beautiful as a flower, just say that the wealth and power of the Lu family, but if there is a little bit of light, it is not just around the corner when it becomes developed! It's all cheap for him Liu Ji. ”

The more Yuan Pengfei listened, the more it didn't taste, it was normal for these guys to be sour, but did Gong Lu marry his daughter so quickly?

Let's hope he'll be in time.
