Chapter 231: Shou Yuan Dan
Han Bing didn't want to come out to greet him so early, even if the other party was a royal family, it was not worth mentioning in front of him, he just didn't want Ling Xue to be frightened here alone.
For some bad habits of the royal family, he is not used to it in his heart, no matter what he does, he must bring the soldiers of the brigade to show off his strength all the way, which usually causes panic among the people.
Han Bing stood at the gate of the courtyard, calmly looking at the people who were walking towards him.
When everyone got closer, one of the officer-like men walked quickly in front of Han Bing, hugged his fists slightly, and said, "Excuse me, Your Excellency is Doctor Han?"
Han Bing looked at the officer and nodded slowly.
The officer was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Han Bing deeply, obviously, he was not very satisfied with Han Bing's attitude, but he didn't care, turned around and walked to the crowd behind, and after whispering a few words in front of a woman wearing a scarf, he led everyone to come again.
When Han Bing saw the woman in the scarf, he immediately recognized it, wasn't this the little princess of the royal family he saw at the market that day?
At this time, the woman with the scarf also saw Han Bing, and she paused, because of the scarf, outsiders couldn't see her expression.
Ling Xue ran back to the house and took out a few benches and placed them in the open space in the courtyard. Once the stool had been set, she retreated to her room and looked out cautiously from behind the door.
"Doctor Han, our old general is in poor health, please diagnose it. The officer said.
"Please come in. Han Bing turned around slightly and let go of the courtyard door, his tone still flat.
"Is there only a bench?" the officer was finally a little dissatisfied and wanted to scold, but was stopped by the woman in the scarf.
With the support of the soldiers, the flower-haired old man sat down on the bench, and the old man looked quite weak, and he couldn't even breathe.
"Please go to the immortal and treat the old general. The woman in the scarf came to Han Bing, took off her headscarf to reveal her delicate face, and bent down slightly and said gracefully.
The many generals behind her, hearing the words of the little princess, froze for a moment, and threw themselves into Han Bing's gaze, the original arrogance was gone, before leaving the palace, the royal family had already found someone to draw Han Bing's portrait, and when they heard what the little princess said, they immediately confirmed the guess in their hearts.
Han Bing glanced at the little princess and knew that the other party had already recognized him. This old general seems to have a high status in the royal family, and he is so tired just because of his special status.
"Exit y'all of you. The little princess turned her head slightly and said in a deep voice.
"Yes. The soldiers did not dare to linger, and soon retreated outside the courtyard gate. The yard is not very big, so there is actually no difference between going out and not going out.
Han Bing's gaze turned to the flower-haired old man, although he was old, his face was sharp and angular, like a knife sharpening an axe, and his slightly cloudy eyes revealed a glint of fortitude and wisdom.
Han Bing stared at the old man, took a few steps forward, shook his head with a deep sigh and said, "This old gentleman is not sick, but his longevity is about to end, and it is beyond the power of the medicine stone." β
The little princess's face changed slightly, and when she heard Han Bing's words, she was silent for a long time, and the imperial doctor Lang Zhong also said the same. However, she is still unwilling, the old general has galloped on the battlefield for decades, and has made great achievements for the Evergreen State, as long as he is there, foreign enemies have never dared to invade on a large scale.
"Shangxian will definitely have a way, as long as he can prolong the old general's lifespan, gold, silver, jewelry, or glory and wealth, there is no problem. After saying that, she beckoned, and from outside the courtyard gate, two maids walked in carrying a tray.
The silk cloth that covered the tray was lifted, revealing a full load of gold coins and jewelry.
Han Bing didn't even glance at the property, just lowered his head and walked a few steps slowly. The little princess didn't dare to disturb Han Bing's thinking, she just stood quietly in place, but her eyes always fell on Han Bing.
After waiting for a long time, seeing that Han Bing still didn't speak, the old man suddenly stood up a little tremblingly, hugged his fist towards Han Bing, and said: "If the immortal feels embarrassed, I won't force it, the so-called life and death have a fate, and the heavens have their own arrangements." It's just that the ambition has not been rewarded, and there is a lot of unwillingness!"
The little princess took a few steps forward, came behind Han Bing, and said softly:
"Shangxian, Chen Lao is over eighty years old, he is the most prestigious general in my evergreen country, he has been in the army for more than 60 years, and he has made countless military achievements, which makes the enemy army fearful, as long as he is in one day, the surrounding countries will not dare to invade our country on a large scale. Since the immortals are destined to come to the realm of my Evergreen Country, if they can lend a hand, then it will also be a great blessing for the people of the Evergreen Country. β
"Especially in the war ten years ago, nearly half of the southeast of the Evergreen country was slaughtered, and the soldiers and civilians were killed and injured countless times. β
The little princess said in a soft tone and continued, "Gutian Town, where Shangxian is located, was also one of the main battlefields ten years ago, and now, the men in the village are also one in ten, and this must be understood by Shangxian." β
Han Bing stopped, looked at the old man again, and after muttering for a long time, he said slowly: "I can refine a pill for you, and after taking it, you can extend your life for a hundred years." β
"Thank you Immortal!" When the old man heard this, he immediately knelt down excitedly, even though he was the first commander in the army, he didn't dare to have the slightest arrogance in front of the legendary immortals. The magic medicine that can prolong the longevity of a hundred years, this is something he has never heard of, and at this time, he feels Han Bing's strength even more, and he does not dare to doubt every word Han Bing says.
"Thank you, Immortal!" After the old man, all the attendants knelt on the ground, even the little princess.
"Get up. Han Bing raised his hand slightly, and a soft force emanated, holding the old man and the little princess up. His eyes swept around, and with a grasp of his right hand, more than ten gold coins quickly flew out from the maid's tray, suspended above Han Bing's right hand.
The spiritual power in Han Bing's body was running, and under the palm of his hand, a snow-white flame flashed with a bang, and a soft thrust swept around, pushing everyone away from a zhang away, and in the area of a zhang, the temperature rose sharply.
In the blink of an eye, the dozen or so gold coins suspended in the air had melted into a cloud of gold liquid, and then, in dozens of shocking eyes, they slowly rotated and deformed, and finally turned into a golden vat and fell to the ground. The barrel is five feet in diameter and about three feet high, and on the wall of the barrel, bursts of runes flicker.
Just this hand, everyone has opened their eyes, and they stand aside in a daze, not daring to make the slightest sound. At this time, on the top of the golden bucket, there was a scorching breath, Han Bing pinched the trick with his left hand, and pushed it towards the barrel, and immediately, the originally empty barrel was covered with thick ice and snow, and a huge sound of sizzling resounded through the courtyard.
The snow melted into snow water, and the temperature of the golden barrel also dropped, and a layer of ice crystals condensed on the periphery of the barrel. Han Bing wiped the ring in his right hand, and a green bead flew out, turned into arc light, and fell into the bucket, and in the blink of an eye, the ice water in the bucket turned into a turquoise slurry.
"Let's go inside. Han Bing spoke, looking at the old man, and then his right hand was raised in the void, and the old general's body flew up uncontrollably and fell lightly into the slurry.
As soon as the old man entered the slurry, he was covered in a spirit, and his expression was vibrating, as if every pore of his body was alive, and he began to absorb the cool spiritual fluid around him on his own.
Han Bing no longer looked at the old man, turned around and returned to the west wing, closed the door, and began alchemy. The meridians in the old man's body had failed, and if he was not nourished, he would definitely not be able to withstand the medicinal power of Shou Yuan Dan.
The slurry in this bucket is nourishing and repairing his meridians, and it also has the effect of washing the marrow.
After Han Bing left, the little princess and the others immediately gathered around the barrel with shocked faces, staring blankly at the golden bucket and the general inside.
"General Chen, how are you feeling?" the little princess asked tentatively.
"It'sβit's comfortable!" the old man's face was excited, and he didn't know how to describe how he felt at the moment.
"Huh?" everyone exclaimed, and then a hint of envy appeared in their eyes. But any human being, who does not want to extend their life, not to mention, this extension is a hundred years, and a hundred years is already an extremely long time for mortals.
The little princess had a strange light in her eyes, and looked around, especially staying on the closed door of the west wing for a long time, and under the turn of her gaze, she finally noticed the back of the main room door in the north, and secretly observed Ling Xue here.
The little princess hesitated for a moment and walked over slowly.
"Little sister, what is your relationship with the immortals?" the little princess asked with a smile.
"He-" Ling Xue saw this kind of scene for the first time, and said timidly, "He has been living in our house for half a year. β
"Oh?" the little princess's eyes were even more puzzled, "who else are in your family?"
"Me and my grandmother. Ling Xue said, looking at the old woman behind her. At this time, the old woman was looking at the little princess with a respectful and timid expression, and most of the people had this expression when they saw the royal magnate.
The little princess nodded, looked at the hall casually, some of the furniture in it looked quite old and simple, there were doubts in her heart, but it was not good to ask too much, after a little hesitation, she nodded to the two with a smile, and turned back to the courtyard.
An hour later, as the turquoise liquid in the barrel began to lighten and then dyed a light gray color, the old man's complexion was noticeably much better than before, as if he had suddenly become ten years younger.
The liquid in the barrel became darker and darker, and finally after two hours, it became pitch black, and from within it, there were bursts of foul and rotten smell, and the crowd around the barrel couldn't help but retreat one after another, avoiding it from a distance.
With a creak, the door of the west wing opened, and Han Bing stepped out of it.
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Han Bing at this moment.
Han Bing glanced at the liquid in the bucket, and slowly came to the bucket, in his hand, he was holding a pill the size of a soybean, and with a flick of his fingertips, the pill turned into a streamer, and the old man instinctively opened his mouth, and the pill flew into his mouth.
As soon as the elixir was swallowed, the old man was shocked, and after only a few breaths, the wrinkles on his face that were originally like furrows began to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the skin and flesh on the cheekbones began to become full, and the gray hair on the top of his head also began to grow a trace of black.
"It's amazing. Someone exclaimed, and everyone stared at the old man intently, for fear of missing some incredible wonderful shots.
"That's it. After a pillar of incense, Han Bing spoke, and then, with a lift of his right hand in the void, the old man flew out of the barrel and landed steadily on the ground.
"General Chen, is it really you?" The little princess couldn't believe her eyes, the General Chen in front of her, with a straight figure and sparkling eyes, looked like he was only about thirty years old at all, if it weren't for the shadow of Old Chen between his eyebrows, it would be impossible for anyone to connect the two together.
Han Bing's right hand was in the bucket a little, and the Nether Flame appeared, quickly incinerating the black liquid in the bucket.
"You can go back. Han Bing said flatly.
"Thank you Shangxian!" General Chen respectfully clenched his fists, and the others also hugged their fists in thanks.
"This kind of supernatural power to prolong longevity, Han will not use it again in the future, so don't come to me again. Han Bing waved his hand and said slowly.
