Chapter 501: Jin Dan
Seeing Lu Cong's sincere pleading, the old man turned his back to him: "All things are born with turbidity, people eat grains, eat meat and drink blood, and turbidity enters the body, which is not conducive to cultivation." Therefore, cultivators do not kill, do not try to use the desire of the tongue, and use pills to supplement them to avoid turbidity and gather spirits. The older you get, the more difficult it is to practice. In a situation like Your Majesty, I am fortunate to have a Qilin with me, otherwise there is no hope for cultivation!"
When Lu Cong heard this, he hurriedly asked, "If I cultivate, when will I be able to defeat Ning Ze?"
"This ......," the old man hesitated for a moment, "that person has to meet a famous teacher, he has stepped into the path of cultivation at a young age, and now his mana is so strong, it is extremely difficult to win......! It's not impossible. The only way to build a foundation in a short period of time and quickly increase mana is to take the golden pill and use the power of the pill to improve cultivation. ”
"Please ask the old immortal to pass on the alchemy technique!" Lu Cong said busily.
"The art of alchemy is extremely profound, and I want to understand it for at least a hundred years. The old man shook his head.
"More than a hundred years?" Lu Congxin said that it would be too long, and when I learned that the Liang Kingdom was wiped out by Ning Ze, he asked, "How should this be?" ”
"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry! The old man can refine the golden pill for cultivation!" The old man said, "Your Majesty takes the golden pill every day, and after 7749 days, you can get rid of the turbidity in the body.
Three months? Lu Cong's heart moved, it was quite fast. Although Ning Ze is very powerful, he sees that winter is not suitable for fighting, and he takes the initiative to sue for peace, let alone three months, even if it drags on for a year. Take advantage of this time to successfully build a foundation and learn spells from the old immortals, so that you can fight with Ning Ze, and even defeat him to dominate the world!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly bowed and said: "In this case, please follow the old immortal down the mountain with me, and I will make you a national teacher who protects the country!"
The old man looked indifferent, turned to him and said, "The old man is a cultivator, far away from the worldly things. I'm used to being in the mountains. This protector of the country, His Majesty still rewards others. ”
"But apart from the old immortals, who else can afford the position of national teacher?" Lu Cong bowed again, "Please follow the old immortals down the mountain, and I am willing to serve the old immortals at all times and learn from you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness! The old man is used to green mountains and green waters, and he is at ease, but he still doesn't go!" The old man refused again, took out a gourd from his sleeve casually, and handed it to Lu Cong, "There is the alchemy pill that the old man has in it, a total of seventy-seven forty-nine grains." His Majesty took one pill every day before resting, until Zhuji came to the mountain to receive the Golden Pill for Cultivation. After taking the golden pill system, the medicinal power is attacked, and the turbidity is induced, and His Majesty's blood and qi will definitely surge, and sometimes you will see a strange scene, don't panic, these are all normal reactions. Once the medicinal power is fused and the turbidity is discharged smoothly, the whole body will feel happy, and the wonder is endless! These golden pills are extremely precious, please keep them properly Your Majesty, and one less grain will affect the probability of success in building the foundation. ”
Lu Cong took the gourd with both hands and respectfully said: "Thank you to the old immortal! Although I know that the old immortal is unwilling to enter the world, I still want to ask the old immortal for the way of cultivation all the time, and I invite the old immortal to go down the mountain with me!
In the face of Lu Cong's three invitations, the old man still shook his head: "Although Your Majesty is sincere, forgive the old man for resigning!" The old man likes to be quiet and does not want to be disturbed, Your Majesty, please go back!"
"Old Immortal ......" Lu Cong wanted to invite again, but the old man had already turned around and walked into the cabin and closed the door directly.
Qiu Yan next to him whispered: "Your Majesty, since the old fairy said so, let's go back to the palace first! It's not too early, try to return before dark to avoid accidents." ”
To say that Lu Cong still had a trace of doubt in his heart before, maybe the old immortal was fake, but now he is completely sure that he is a real immortal.
If it is fake, how can he refuse his invitation three times in a row and become a national teacher by the emperor's side, how tempting? The status of the national teacher is quite high, who can refuse an ordinary person? If it is a liar, he will definitely seize this opportunity, how can he let it go?
Secondly, a real liar must have something to ask for, either for wealth or for power. The old immortal generously gave himself a golden pill, don't give half a return, from this point alone, you can see that he is a real master outside the world!
I heard that the tempers of the world's masters are very strange, and it was right to see it today.
Although he failed to invite the old fairy down the mountain, he has gained a lot and sees hope.
No matter how powerful Ning Ze is, with the help of the old immortals, he will definitely be able to defeat the other party when he steps into the path of cultivation. There is even a chance to live forever like the old immortals.
Thinking of this, my heart is a little hot.
Even if he has enjoyed all the wealth in the world over the years, and he can have whatever he wants as an emperor, but it is really difficult to accept the thought of dying, and everything in his hands will go with death. Now that I have the opportunity to live forever, I can be regarded as fulfilling my dream for many years.
With extreme excitement, he took Qiu Yan down the mountain and quietly returned to the palace.
In the evening, before resting, I took out a golden pill, and suddenly hesitated.
"Your Majesty, why don't you use Jin Dan?" Qiu Yan, who was waiting beside him, asked in a low voice.
"You say, this golden pill really has a miraculous effect?" Lu Cong asked him suspiciously.
"Your Majesty, today you saw the old immortal with your own eyes and obtained the golden pill from him, why are you suspicious?" Qiu Yan asked rhetorically, "If Your Majesty is really worried, why don't you find an imperial doctor to test it?"
Hearing this, Lu Cong lowered his head and thought for a few seconds, then shook his head: "It's me who has a lot of heart!"
After that, he directly opened his mouth and swallowed Jin Dan.
"Your Majesty, water!" Qiu Yan brought the tea, and Lu Cong took it and drank a few sips until the golden pill was successfully in his stomach.
After eating the golden pill, Lu Cong didn't feel anything, he touched his stomach in confusion, and said in his heart, why didn't there be the situation of going to the turbidity and gathering spirits as the old fairy said?
"Your Majesty, how do you feel?" Qiu Yan asked cautiously.
"I don't feel anything!" Lu Cong shook his head.
"Probably Jin Dan didn't work so quickly. Qiu Yan thought about it, "Maybe wait a little longer?"
"Then wait!" Lu Cong felt that it was the same, so he sat in the study and waited silently.
After a while, I felt a warmth in my lower abdomen appear, slowly surging to my whole body. After that, he felt that his body was hot and unbearable, and he immediately shouted at Qiu Yan: "It's coming! I'm hot all over my body now, and I must be going to gather spirits." It's not too hot, so fan me quickly!"
"Huh!" Qiu Yan hurriedly took the fan and stood beside Lu Cong to fan the wind vigorously, "Your Majesty, how is the strength?"
"Bigger! Harder!"
"Wow!" Qiu Yan fanned the wind vigorously, staring at Lu Cong intently.
Lu Cong intuitively felt that the blood in his whole body was surging upward, and even if he didn't look in the mirror, he knew that his whole face would definitely be red. It was almost winter, and the night was so cold, but now it was like a hot summer, and he couldn't help but want to find a cold pool bubble bath.
After a while, I felt in a trance, and the study seemed to suddenly become larger, and I couldn't see the edge at a glance. The sound of Qiu Yan's words and the wind of the fan in his ears also began to be in a trance until they disappeared.
There seemed to be countless phantoms around him, sometimes like the wind blowing, sometimes turning into a delicate woman dancing. Later, everything changed, and he seemed to have left his study and appeared in a turbid world, with a narrow road leading to unknown directions under his feet, and a voice called him to keep going......
In Qiu Yan's eyes, Lu Cong was sitting at the table, not at all serious, but showing an extremely relaxed and completely happy expression, and he didn't know what he saw, his face was happy like a fool, and he didn't react to anything he said.
Even reaching out and shaking in front of his eyes, there was no response.
"This medicine should be fine, right?" Qiu Yan was a little worried, looking at the gourd containing the "Golden Pill", his heart was uneasy.
Worried that outsiders would see Lu Cong's appearance, he carefully put down the fan and whispered to him: "Your Majesty, you practice slowly, and the temple people stay outside." ”
Lu Cong didn't respond, he still looked like that.
Qiu Yan tiptoed out of the study, carefully closed the door, and stood guard directly at the door.
During this period, anyone who asks to see him will think that His Majesty is reviewing important official documents and will deal with them tomorrow.
Until late at night, the queen saw that her husband had not passed, so she sent someone to urge.
Qiu Yan went into the study to check and found that Lu Cong was already asleep, with a smile on his face, so he called the queen's people in, saying that His Majesty had worked too hard and had already slept. Let them be careful and carry His Majesty back to the Queen's bedchamber.
Nothing happened that night, the queen saw that her husband had already slept, although she was a little regretful, no matter how busy she was on weekdays, it would not be the queen's turn to serve, but she still felt sorry for her husband and couldn't bear to wake him up.
However, Qiu Yan was more worried, he couldn't break into the queen's bedroom without Lu Cong's order to investigate, he was afraid that there would be any sequelae of this "Jin Dan", and if there was something wrong with Lu Cong, his head would not be guaranteed.
The only thing that can be done at the moment is to put away the gourd that Lu Cong left on the table, which contains a large number of "golden pills", and then pray that Lu Cong can wake up safely tomorrow.
He couldn't sleep well all night, for fear that the footsteps that appeared in his ears in the middle of the night were the Praetorian Guards who came to arrest him.
As a result, I kept my eyes open until the early hours of the morning, when someone came to spread the word, saying that His Majesty asked him to serve in the past, and he was completely relieved.
Hurriedly came to the queen's bedroom, Lu Cong looked anxious when he saw him: "Where is the gourd?"
The others didn't know what this meant, but Qiu Yan immediately replied: "The temple is kept by His Majesty!"
As he spoke, he took out the gourd from his bosom.
Lu Cong hurriedly snatched it over, opened the lid to take a look, and quickly hid it on his body, while breathing a sigh of relief: "How did I come to the queen's dormitory last night?"
"After His Majesty took the golden pill, he seemed to be immersed in cultivation, and after about the end of his cultivation, he fell asleep. Qiu Yan replied, "The queen sent someone to invite, and when she saw that Her Majesty was sleeping, she carried you over." Your Majesty ...... last night Can my cultivation go smoothly after taking the golden pill?"
Hearing this, an excited smile appeared on Lu Cong's face: "I am not a cultivator yet, I just go to the turbidity to gather spirits, and I will only step into the door of cultivation after building a foundation! I don't know if I can eat a ...... now."
"Your Majesty, the old immortal has explained that you can only take the golden pill before resting!" Qiu Yan hurriedly said, "You will have to go to court early!"
"Of course I know," Lu Cheng sighed, "hurry up and change my clothes." ”
"Whoa!"
