Chapter Twenty-Three: The Art of Rejuvenation and Immortality (I)
The strength of Mu Yuchencang's body seemed to be emptied in an instant, and he felt that he had cooled out of his body. Mu Yuchen knelt straight in front of Xu Jingzhi's tomb, and two lines of tears slipped down his face in silence.
Mu Yuchen couldn't say the emotions in his heart, just the good gentleman Master Xu in the past. It churned in Mu Yuchen's mind, and in a trance, he didn't even notice that someone was approaching him. "Yo! I didn't think you were still alive! My most dear disciple. Behind Mu Dichen, a man's voice sounded. It was a young man's voice, and the tone of the voice was so familiar.
The art of immortality, whether in modern or ancient times, in the East or in the West, is the ultimate aspiration of the worldly wielders of power. It has left an incomparably profound trace in the long river of history. The original form of the science of the Origin Realm was born out of this desire. Keep moving forward because of **, this is progress in the usual sense! Humans are such creatures!
Alchemy is a technique born under the pursuit of immortality, and because of this. The research direction of alchemy will be so focused on medicine. In the world of steelmaking. All sorcerers know that alchemy cannot achieve immortality.
Therefore, Yao Lin, the twelfth prince of the new kingdom of this generation, and Zhang Mei, the seventeenth princess, will go to the West Amistolis to find the Philosopher's Stone, which is hidden under the dust of history. Is that really the case? The alchemy that was also based on the ancient Selkels technique and took shape in the East is really not as good as the alchemy that has been carried forward in the West?
"Old man???? Master Xu????。 Mu Yuchen looked at the tall and radiant young man in front of him. If it weren't for the familiar taste in that voice, if it weren't for the familiar outline between the eyebrows, if it weren't for the natural intimacy that rose in his intuition, Mu Yuchen would never be so excited.
"You! You! Where did you get plastic surgery? Alchemy can still be applied like this, master! Although it is necessary to keep one hand, it is too much for you to keep a lot of hands like this! Anyway, we've lived together for two years, and I thought you were crying so sadly! Master, ah".
Looking at the radiant young version of Xu Jingzhi in front of him, Mu Yuchen's first reaction was to think of the rules in the Yanhuang tradition, among the unspoken rules of teaching skills, such as keeping a hand and passing on children not to daughters.
"According to the original script, shouldn't this apprentice of mine first express great reverence, and then cry and shout for me to continue teaching him?" Xu Jingzhi, who originally thought that he would scare his apprentice, was completely dumbfounded in the face of Mu Yuchen's accusation of blood and tears.
looked at Mu Yuchen hugging his thighs. and kept rubbing tears and snot and other things on his clothes, Xu Jingzhi roared helplessly in his heart: "Why is this happening?"
"Are you really my Master Xu?? Xu Jingzhi??。 Mu Yuchen, who felt that he was being wanted, looked at the young version of Xu Jingzhi in front of him with very suspicious eyes, and the doubt in that tone was about to come out. "What evidence is there not? My master is obviously a bad old man! You can't be my master's son, colluding with the old man to fool me, right? ”
Looking at the master who made him so embarrassed, Mu Yuchen felt that he had to make the other party pay a little price. If only when it was time to pass on the arts. Be able to bring out all your unique skills. That's flawless.
"What are you? Stinky boy, if it weren't for the old man. You bastard boy has been eaten by the wolves in the mountains! Xu Jingzhi was completely speechless about the apprentices he taught, and began to keep picking up the events of the year to prove his identity.
"You're from my old friend Fortune Umbrella. Back then in the little valley
Listening to Xu Jingzhi's endless narration of the various arts he learned back then, Mu Yuchen, who was originally looking for some psychological balance, also gave a big gift to his mentor in accordance with the rules. If it weren't for the foundation of alchemy over the years, Mu Yuchen would have been a loess cultivator who died in a foreign land, and there would be no bones left.
Xu Jingzhi accepted the gift of his disciple very peacefully, and someone who got a full sense of satisfaction. According to the habit of many years, I unconsciously began to stroke my beard, but this young body is in the prime of life, and there is no such thing as a beard.
"Master, let's salute according to the rules. Shouldn't you take out your unique trick at the bottom of the box? Mu Yuchen, who was still in good order just now, immediately jumped up from the ground after the salute was over. Mu Yubang's eyes flashed, as if Scrooge had seen a large treasure. ,
Xu Jingzhi covered his forehead with some pain, looking at the disciple who had disappeared in front of him for more than ten years. In addition to mixed feelings, wisps of warmth also rose in his heart. No matter how young he looks on the outside, this top alchemist's heart is full of facts. It's still that wisdom. Went to the wooden house next to him, and then opened the room where he received the class back then, and it was still the same as many years ago, and the old rattan chair still had traces carved by Mu Yuchen, and all the things of yesterday seemed to appear clearly in front of him, but the two people standing here at the moment. It's been completely unrecognizable.
"You've grown a lot taller? It was clearly not comparable to before. How tall am I now! Xu Jingzhi, who is no longer rickety, looks about 1.77 meters tall. But for Mu Yuchen, who has grown to 1.8 meters under the catalysis of various conditions, it is still a little bit worse. Even though his face has returned to when he was young, the vicissitudes left by those years are still imprinted in his soul of Xu Jingzhi.
The reunited master and apprentice talked a lot. During this period, Xu Jingzhi began to check Mu Yuchen's alchemy cultivation, and the two began to compare and consider various alchemy exercises verbally in an illusionary way. Mu Yuchen, who can be called both East and West, naturally did not disappoint Xu Jingzhi, and time passed quickly between the questions and answers between the two, and soon the bright full moon rose to the middle of the sky.
"Do you really want to get this secret art of rejuvenation?" After some verification, Xu Jingzhi suddenly said to Mu Yuchen seriously: "You have to endure countless years of loneliness, watching your relatives and friends pass away one by one, the most terrible thing is that you will face the fear of the unknown, and you don't even know what you will become in the end." ”
"Master, are you still talking about alchemy??" Mu Yuchen looked back at the knowledge he had gained from Xu Jingzhi and asked strangely. "How do I feel like a third-rate ghost story?"
"Of course, these are still alchemy, do you remember what I once taught you? About the origin and purpose of alchemy. Xu Jingzhi's vision suddenly became distant, and the long river of time seemed to have descended on him. That's a message in mythology! ”
"Of course, master, alchemy was born when the emperor used it to pursue the dream of immortality." Mu Yuchen replied without thinking about it: "Immortal? Isn't this attempt a failure? ”
"Hey, hey! More than a thousand years ago, the Sages of the West brought the knowledge of refining from Xelkels to the new nation in the midst of a war of unification. This immortal sage uses himself as an example. Left behind dreams about immortality. Xu Jingzhi quietly recounted some of the buried history: "The founding emperor of the new country, Shi Huang, tried to obtain immortality, and the warlocks created alchemy at his request, and the ancestor of this sect, Xu Fu, was the head of the imperial warlocks of that year. ”
"After nearly a hundred years of attempts, countless paths were vetoed by Patriarch Xu Fu, and for a long time, the original initiator of this research, the emperor, was lost in time, but the later emperors still did not give up." Xu Jingzhi paused slightly, and then a shocking big secret burst out of his mouth.
"The most reluctant patriarch has found a relatively accurate direction."
"The human body is composed of three parts: essence, qi and spirit, and essence is the material basis for constituting the human body and maintaining the life activities of the human body. Broadly speaking, essence includes essence, blood, and fluid, and generally referred to as essence refers to the true yin of the human body, also known as Yuan Yin, which not only has reproductive functions and promotes the growth and development of the human body, but also can resist the influence of various adverse factors in the outside world and avoid diseases. Therefore, the abundance of yin essence not only grows and develops normally, but also has a strong ability to resist diseases.
Qi is the driving force of life activities. Qi has two meanings, it is not only a small and difficult substance that runs in the body, but also the ability of the human body to move various organs and organs.
God is the supreme commander of all life activities, including spirit, will, perception, and movement. Tranquility includes activities such as soul, spirit, mind, will, thought, consideration, and intellect, through which the health of the person can be reflected.
The essence, qi, and spirit are mutually breeding and mutually supporting, and the relationship between them is very close. According to traditional Chinese medicine, the origin of human life is "essence", the driving force to maintain life is "qi", and the embodiment of life is the activity of "god". Therefore, it is enough to inflate the essence, and the spirit is prosperous; If the essence is lacking, the qi will be weak, and the qi will be weak. On the other hand, Shenwang indicates that the qi is sufficient, and the qi is full of energy. ”
Looking at Mu Yuchen's blank face, Xu Jingzhi understood very well that the original medical theories of the new country before these alchemy were formed were rarely studied even among the current new country alchemists. But Mu Yuchen, who was a visitor from the Origin World Realm, actually understood these theories, all thanks to the prevalence of the Crossing Text and the Xiuzhen Text on the Internet, the only thing that made him wonder was that this had something to do with immortality?
"In alchemy parlance, human beings are a combination of spirit, ** and soul. To be immortal, all three must be in an absolute balance, and even in a process of continuous strengthening. Xu Jingzhi began to combine these ancient theories with alchemy...... If you want to know what's next, log in... More chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!
