Chapter 2104: Elixir of Life

A person more than 2,000 years ago, living to the present, there are two possibilities, one is that he took the elixir, legend has it that Xu Fu looked for the elixir for Qin Shi Huang, this possibility is very large.

The second is zombies, zombies are alien species of heaven and earth, not in the six realms, not in reincarnation, and beyond life and death, so zombies can also live for more than 2,000 years without dying.

Xu Zu didn't answer immediately, just smiled, walked out of the room, stood in the sun, opened his hand, bathed in the sun, and the Yuan Lumen who were guarding the door hurriedly saluted.

"It's nice to be in the sun. Xu Zu sighed with emotion, and then turned to look at Lin Tian: "There is still some time before the Blood Sacrifice Ceremony, young man, are you interested in listening to the old man tell a story?" ”

"Listen up. Lin Tian said with interest.

"There is a monk who, by chance, became the imperial physician of Qin Shi Huang, in fact, this alchemist is better at foreign arts, than medical skills, when it comes to medical skills, he may not even be as good as ordinary imperial doctors. ”

But he just became a celebrity around Qin Shi Huang, because Qin Shi Huang took a fancy to his strange skills. ”

"People aspire to immortality, and this is especially true of emperors, Qin Shi Huang took the throne at the age of thirteen, was crowned at the age of twenty-two, and completed the great cause of unification at the age of thirty-nine.

"Sweep Liuhe, unify the six countries, abolish the sub-seal, the county system, the book is the same text, the car is the same track, unify the weights and measures, attack the Xiongnu in the north, conquer the Baiyue in the south, build the Great Wall, build the spiritual canal, and communicate the water system in the north and south. ”

"Qin Shi Huang's exploits are ancient and modern, as the emperor of the world, what he pursues is to reach the pinnacle and lay down such a magnificent country, of course, he must have it forever, so he thought of immortality. ”

He found this alchemist and gave him a task to find a way to live forever. Xu Zu paused, and a green light flashed in his eyes.

Lin Tian frowned lightly and said, "Method, isn't it an elixir?"

Xu Zu waved his hand and said: "At that time, there were two methods of immortality, the inner Dan technique and the outer Dan technique, the so-called inner Dan technique, which is to cultivate the immortal method, the technique of breathing and breathing, pranayama, heart adjustment, fetal breath, Bigu, convincing, and practicing qi, in order to reach the realm of immortals and live forever." ”

"However, the technique of cultivating immortals in the Inner Dan is always illusory, and long-term cultivation may not be effective, obviously, this method is not suitable for the emperor. And the Wai Dan Shu is the elixir, the elixir of life, and among the nobles at that time, the Wai Dan Shu was more popular. Xu Zu shook his head slightly, quite funny.

Lin Tian also laughed: "Noble people, enjoy the brocade clothes and jade food, where do you have the perseverance to cultivate, of course, Wai Dan is more suitable for them, you don't have to work hard yourself." ”

Xu Zu gave Lin Tian a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Young man, you are right, the method of immortality by opening your mouth, who doesn't like it?"

"After investigation, that alchemist found that there is really a legend of the elixir of life in the Wai Dan technique, and there are three more reliable ones!"

"Three, so many?" Lin Tian was surprised, the human race is immortal, but it is against the sky, there is one of them, and there are even three.

Xu Zu didn't explain anything, and continued: "The first is the meat mushroom ......."

"Isn't it Tai Sui, mushrooms, similar to mushrooms. Lin Tian expressed doubts that it was the limitations of the ancients who spread the falsehood.

"Mushrooms?" Xu Zu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Haha, you really dare to say that even ordinary meat mushrooms have the effect of prolonging life, not to mention the thousand-year-old Tai Sui." ”

"Like ginseng, Rouzhi absorbs the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, and grows to a certain age, maybe a thousand years, maybe 10,000 years, and then it will transform into a human form. It is difficult to find that the formed Tai Sui moves, and it is said that this shaped Tai Sui has the effect of immortality. ”

Lin Tian spread his hands and said with a smile: "You used the word supposedly, which means that the Fang Shi did not find the formed meat mushroom." ”

Xu Zu was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Young people have insight, you are right, Fang Shi did not find the formed meat mushroom, Qin Shi Huang gave Fang Shi a lot of power, and the material resources and manpower that could be used were very terrifying, but even so, he still did not find it." ”

"The second type is the 10,000-year-old toad, the thousand-year-old bat. Toads and bats are very common, but when they grow for tens of millions of years, they are different, and they have horns on their heads, which are used to refine medicines, and the effect is peculiar. But the 10,000-year-old toad, the thousand-year-old bat is as difficult to find as the formed Tai Sui, and in the end, the Fang Shi did not find it. ”

"The third type is the wind beast, which looks like a mink, has a blue fur and is the size of a raccoon dog, and is born in the forests of the South China Sea. This beast is very magical, the fire burns the hair but not scorched, the sword pierces the skin but does not break, and it can only be killed by hitting the head with a heavy object. ”

"However, if a dead wind beast is blown by the wind, it will be resurrected in a moment, and the head of the wind beast will be cut open, its brain will be taken, and it will be refined with other herbs, and its elixir will prolong the life of the person who takes it for five hundred years. Xu Zu said in detail.

"Five hundred years of life extension, although it is not immortality, is also very good. Lin Tian nodded.

If it was placed in the past, such a magical animal as the Wind Beast, Lin Tian only had a fantasy, but after going to the underworld, he knew that nothing was impossible. In many inaccessible places, there may be some ancient animals, such as the black water king snake in the underground river of Jinghua City.

"In order to catch the wind beast, Fang Shi went to sea many times, but unfortunately he returned in vain. Xu Zu looked regretful.

Lin Tian blinked, a little puzzled: "According to the history books, didn't Fang Shi go to sea to Immortal Island to seek the elixir of life?

"The history books also say that Qin Shi Huang is a tyrant, do you believe it?" Xu Zu asked rhetorically, his expression serious.

Lin Tian thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if it's a tyrant or not, but it must be an iron-blooded emperor of the ages." ”

"Hmph!" Xu Zu looked angry and said coldly: "The First Emperor unified the six countries, quelled the war, built the Great Wall, resisted the barbarians, repaired the Spirit Canal, and opened the way, and the descendants enjoyed these conveniences, but in turn said that the First Emperor was a tyrant, is there such a reason?"

"Let's just say that the book burning pit Confucianism, at that time, Lu Sheng, a warlock, used a fake immortal technique to deceive the First Emperor, and also confused the government, and finally absconded with money, and the First Emperor was angry and killed those liar warlocks. There may be manslaughter among them, but it is by no means as unbearable as later generations say. Xu Zu raised his eyebrows, very angry.

Lin Tian nodded slightly and said: "I won't comment on the historical records, in my personal heart, the First Emperor deserves the title of the First Emperor of the Ages." ”

Xu Zu sighed slightly and said: "Emperors are also human beings, and if they are human beings, they have human nature, so the pursuit of immortality is not a bad thing. ”

"Having said so much, did that alchemist finally find the elixir?" Lin Tian asked.
