Chapter 4 How to Compete with a Snake?
That night, Li Xiang didn't feel sleepy.
From time to time, I turned over to look at the white snake, and it felt that its breathing was quite steady, and I thought that those herbs still had some effect on it.
Fate is really amazing, I actually ...... with a snake
Li Xiang was like a world away...... It's true that it's been a lifetime, and traveling into this world is itself a rebirth.
sighed for a while, couldn't help but concentrate his thoughts, and began to look at the "Shennong's Materia Medica" that remained in his mind.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is a complete medical dictionary, covering a wide range.
The content is not only much more than the "Shennong's Materia Medica" learned in the previous life, but also much more profound.
Fortunately, Li Xiang has a foundation in traditional Chinese medicine, and he doesn't seem to be tired.
He mainly reads the content related to pulses and acupuncture points...... Only by mastering this knowledge can we understand the cultivation method of the Vientiane Sutra.
If you don't seem to understand it, if you forcibly cultivate, there is only one consequence: the meridians are disordered, you go crazy, and even die with a whimper!
Before you know it, it's dawning.
"Strange, how come the more you look at it, the more energetic you become, and you don't feel sleepy at all?"
Li Xiang muttered to himself suspiciously.
When I turned my head, I saw that the white snake was still asleep.
So the thought struck...... I want to test if I can summon Shennong Ding.
When I was in space, the information that poured into my mind was not only the content of the two scriptures, but also some other information.
For example, some of the manipulation methods of Shennong Ding, as well as the methods of opening other world channels.
It's a pity that just knowing the method doesn't work, you have to have the corresponding strength.
It's like people know that immortals can fly, but I'm not a fairy......
After several attempts, finally, Shennong Ding appeared out of thin air...... Fortunately, it didn't press on the body, but was suspended in mid-air.
"It worked!"
Li Xiang drank in surprise, and then his mind moved again, and Shennong Ding slowly lowered and stood firmly on the bed.
At this time, the white snake suddenly woke up.
It looked a little demented...... Then, get excited.
The small body suddenly bounced up, flew above Shennong Ding, and then fell down...... It seems that it wants to enter the Dingnai.
Unexpectedly, as soon as it fell to the mouth, it was bounced far away by an invisible force.
"Little White ......"
Li Xiang was startled and quickly jumped out of bed and chased after him.
Fortunately, White Snake is fine.
Its body was suspended in mid-air, slowly swimming towards Shennong Ding like a fish...... When he swam to the top of Ding, his body suddenly rose into the air and then fell suddenly......
"Poof!"
As a result, it was once again bounced away.
This time, Li Xiang didn't chase it again, but watched it swim back again with some speechlessness, and continued to try unconvinced.
Jump left, jump right, head down, tail down, cross, stretch......
I changed more than a dozen methods and postures......
All failed!
It finally gave up...... Or rather, it was tired, its fatigue and disappointment could be clearly seen, and it swam to Li Xiang's side, raised his head, blinked his eyes, and looked aggrieved and expectant.
Li Xiang's heart moved: "Xiaobai, do you want me to put you in?" ”
White Snake nodded hurriedly.
"Uh...... Could this tripod help you heal? ”
Li Xiang muttered to himself, and gently picked up the white snake and wanted to put it into the ding.
As a result, his hand reached into the ding without any obstacles, and the white snake was bounced away again.
"I understand...... Li Xiang flashed his mind and said to the white snake: "This tripod is an artifact, and you are still a snake spirit, so ......
But don't be discouraged, you're still young, and one day when you reach the right fruit, you'll become a fairy! ”
Does this count as a leak?
Li Xiang suddenly woke up and glanced out the window with a worried face, for fear that a thunderbolt would come in.
After all, there is a folk legend that those who leak the heavenly machine will be struck by lightning.
Fortunately, the clouds are light and the wind is light.
White Snake completely gave up his plan to enter Shennongding. However, he swam to the bottom of the ding, coiled his body, and enjoyed himself without fish and shrimp.
Seeing this, Li Xiang sat down lovingly, patted its head gently, and his eyes were as gentle as looking at his daughter-in-law: "Since you like it, I won't put it away for the time being......"
The White Snake nodded happily.
Then he ran to Li Xiang's shoulder and rubbed his face kissing.
Li Xiang was overwhelmed with relief.
After a while, I turned over and got out of bed and went to the courtyard to fetch water and wash......
After eating breakfast, he found some herbs to replenish qi and blood and threw them to the white snake, and told him to stay obediently in the room, and then he went outside to open the shop.
After a while, a little daughter-in-law walked into the medical hall: "Li Lang...... People are a little uncomfortable......"
"What's wrong?"
"It's not comfortable here, it's not comfortable there......"
"You sit down, let Xiaosheng take the pulse for you......"
A pleasant day has started again.
During this period, Li Xiang went into the room from time to time to see the white snake, and saw that it was sleeping soundly, and his heart fell.
It seems that this Shennong Ding has been of great help to its injuries.
……
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.
The wind is calm, and there are no strange people coming to the door.
What made Li Xiang most relieved was that the white snake's injuries seemed to have recovered, and he was curiously running around the house or flying around the small courtyard when he was fine.
However, its favorite thing to do is to stay and sleep under the Shennong Ding.
At this time, Li Xiang had a new plan.
In the past few days, as long as he has time, he will read the Shennong Materia Medica Sutra and delve into the content related to the meridians and acupuncture points of the human body.
Basically, it's relatively skilled.
So he began to study the Vientiane Sutra, and found that if you want to cultivate the mental method in it, you must first quench the body, which is the most basic step.
Fortunately, there is a method of quenching the body in the scriptures, but it needs to be supplemented by a special medicinal solution to soak the body.
The liquid medicine is divided into three stages, which is a typical step-by-step method.
In the first stage of the recipe, a total of 12 fresh herbs are required. That is, it cannot be used in the sun.
The first recipe is easy to do, and the herbs listed above are relatively common.
He doesn't need to go into the mountains to collect medicine by himself, there are several professional medicine collectors in the town.
I ran to three of them and gathered the twelve herbs I needed...... That night, Li Xiang began to pound the juice and boil the liquid.
After tinkering until midnight, a steaming pot of medicinal soup was finally boiled.
Then he scooped it into the barrel, stripped off his clothes, and put on a large pair of pants and stepped into the barrel.
"Cool!"
The temperature of the medicinal soup is a little hot, but it is very comfortable, just like soaking in a hot spring, the blood circulates faster, and millions of pores dilate......
After enjoying a moment, Li Xiang concentrated his mind and began to silently recite the method of quenching the body in the scriptures.
Only in this way can the effect of the drug be absorbed to the maximum extent and have an effect similar to that of washing the marrow and removing the hair.
"Plop!"
Unexpectedly, just as he began to quench his body, the white snake slipped over, jumped into the barrel with some excitement, and swam around happily.
Li Bai was speechless, and reached out to grab it outside.
"Xiaobai, don't be naughty......"
"Plop!"
As soon as the hand was released, the white snake rushed in again.
Repeated twice, Li Xiang gave up: What is the strength of competing with a snake? As long as it doesn't affect itself.
So, I didn't pay attention to it, and concentrated on reciting the mantra silently to absorb the medicinal effect......
