Volume 1 Catechumens Chapter 5 Mundane Matters

Wu Jie's return made Dr. Wu and his wife overjoyed, and they were so happy that they didn't know what to do.

When the son goes out to seek immortals, they naturally will not object; The son made meritorious contributions to the country and will be crowned marquis, and they are naturally happy; The son wrote a book and said that virtue was born to the common people, and they were naturally pleased. But compared to these, the fact that my son can go home is the happiest thing for them!

The mother, who had been upgraded to Mrs. Command, happily wanted to cook and cook, and the old marquis who was registered in the Great Chu State turned out the good wine he had made when he was not a good starter, and announced that he would get drunk tonight. Both of them had a happy glow on their faces, and even the wrinkles seemed to have spread a lot.

However, Wu Xie stopped them and took out a jade bottle containing a life-prolonging elixir from the Heavenly Book World Realm.

"Daddy, mother, those little things will be talked about tomorrow, please take this medicine first." He said, "This is a elixir given by the elders of the children's school, which can be used to prolong life." ”

Dr. Wu and Mrs. Wu were stunned for a moment, and then they unanimously asked their son to eat first.

"The child has cultivated into an immortal, and from now on he is free from life and death, and this elixir is ineffective for me." Wu Xie opened his eyes and said nonsense, not blushing at all, "And this elixir is specifically for the elderly, and it is useless for young and strong people to eat it." ”

"How can there be such a reason...... Dr. Wu suddenly felt that his medical knowledge had been seriously challenged, and muttered dissatisfiedly, "Give it to your brother, at least you can strengthen your body." ”

At this time, Mrs. Wu reacted quickly, poured out a verdant elixir, and stuffed it directly into the old man's mouth.

"Just you talk a lot! This is an elixir, not a pill you rubbed out of honey! ”

The elixir melts in the mouth, and the mouth is immediately full of fragrance. Dr. Wu swallowed subconsciously, only to feel a warm and comfortable spread from his abdomen, and his whole body flowed between breaths, and he suddenly felt refreshed, and before he knew it, his waist straightened, and he saw things much more clearly, not as vague as usual, as if covered with a veil.

He looked at his wife in surprise, but saw that his wife's white hair gradually turned black, and her face was much rudder, obviously she was an old woman who was nearly fifty years old, but she looked like she had recovered to her thirties, vaguely the same as when the couple spent difficult years together.

Recalling that time, the entire Zhaoyang County was in a famine, and just trying to make ends meet had exhausted the strength of the couple, and for several years, the wife was not able to change her clothes, not even a headscarf, a belt, and jewelry......

Fortunately, they have finally come to the bitter end, and now they have gained fame and fortune, and they have the title and destiny canonized by the imperial court, and they also have an outstanding immortal son - so far in life, it can be said that there are no regrets!

Wu Xie watched the two elders take the elixir, and told them to have a good rest tonight, and then went to their own house under the guidance of Jon.

The actual name of Jishitang should be called "Jishihou Mansion", and he, the authentic Jishihou, naturally has his own room. It's just that everyone knows that he went to seek immortals, and did not decorate his room magnificently, but just revealed elegance and delicacy in the simplicity as much as possible, to paraphrase a pre-crossing advertising slogan, which is called "simple but not simple".

He went back to his room and was about to sleep, when Du Ruo suddenly asked, "Fourth, how about you say I'll go home now?" ”

Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and nodded. Immediately there was some distress - the master gave a total of two elixirs, which had already been eaten by him to his parents, Du Ruo had no elixir this time, could he go home empty-handed?

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Jasmine.

"Don't look at me! I'm not good at alchemy! Jasmine immediately understood what he meant, "I would have prepared several poisons that can poison tens of millions of people, but I never thought of the poisons that can prolong the life of mortals!" ”

"Then think of one for now, I believe in your ability!"

"People often say, 'Catch the duck on the shelf', master, you drive the rabbit to alchemy, what is this!"

"Those who can work harder."

"People work hardβ€”but I'm a rabbit!"

"You're not your average rabbit, you're Jasmine!" Wu Xie gave her a thumbs up, "I believe in you!" ”

Jasmine blinked, and suddenly came to her senses.

She first asked Wu Xie for the jade bottle containing the elixir and smelled it, then looked left and right, and then walked to the side of the sacred spring water soaked in the ball of light, stretched out her hand and bowed a handful of milky white spring water, tasted it, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Just use this as the main medicine, and add something to ease the medicinal properties...... Although it is a little worse in terms of sustainability than that elixir, it can at least dispel illness and strengthen the body and prolong life...... bar. ”

"That last word sounds a little suspicious!"

"Don't worry, it won't hurt anyway." Jasmine said confidently, "This amount of force is beneficial to mortals, as long as you don't use too much." ”

"Why is that overdone?" Wu Xie asked.

Jasmine looked at Wu Xie and smiled.

"This is going to trouble you, master."

About a quarter of an hour later, Du Ruo quietly walked away with a bamboo bottle containing Jasmine's special elixir, while Wu Xie lay on the bed and smiled helplessly.

"Jasmine...... Belch...... It's definitely taking the opportunity to fix me! ”

He drank at least a dozen liters of Divine Spring Water in one go, and even he was uncomfortably swollen.

What's worse is that this thing will not enter the body fluid circulation system at all, and he can't get out if he can eat it, and he can only swell like this before he digests it.

When it was almost dawn, Du Ruo came back with red eyes, and he didn't talk to Wu Jie, he went into the boudoir of the Heavenly Book World and went to rest.

Soon after, Uncle Du, who had been promoted to become one of the garrison generals of Zhaoyang County and presided over the defense of the people in Anfeng County, came to the door happily, and when he saw Dr. Wu, he patted his shoulder and smiled, looking extremely happy.

"Old Wu, Ah Ruo is really a blessing to your family this time!"

Doctor Wu looked dazed, not knowing what he was talking about.

"Oh...... It's no wonder you don't know what to do. Uncle Du was in high spirits, as if he was several years younger, "What about our family Ah Ruo, who fell into the evil plan of the three mountains of the demon road back then, and was almost taken away by him, so he had no choice but to die with this demon road." A wisp of soul has nowhere to go, hiding in your pharmacy. In the past few years, your family has continued to treat diseases and save people, especially Ah Jie's epidemic prevention method and bacteriological theory, which have saved countless people and made immeasurable merits. She has made some profits, and finally repaired the loss of her soul, so that she can reincarnate with peace of mind, and she doesn't have to be a lonely ghost! ”

Doctor Wu stayed for a while, and then asked the servant to call Wu Xie and ask what was going on.

Wu Xie has already spoken to Du Ruo, and he has the bottom in his heart, and a scene is quite natural.

He was first full of surprise, then ran to the pharmacy curiously, looked carefully, nodded, and said, "That's right, the yin energy here has not been exhausted, and there should always be ghosts living there." ”

"Ah Ruo, this kid is really! Tell us about it sooner, we can find a way to take care of her! Dr. Wu frowned, shook his head and said, "It's good to help her build a temple!" ”

"That's not good, she's a ghost, and as soon as she leaves the pharmacy, a yin wind will lure her to the River Styx. But if the soul is incomplete, reincarnation can only be reincarnated as a beast, and then it will be miserable! ”

Uncle Du said with a smile: "This girl is really bold enough, last night Ah Xie came back from the immortal and brought the elixir to her parents." As soon as she thought about it, she sneaked into the underworld and stole the water from the holy spring to me, saying that she also wanted to help me prolong my life. ”

As he spoke, he took out a few ugly bamboo bottles and said with a smile: "This girl! The craftsmanship is still so poor, and the bottle is no different from a dog's gnaw! ”

"You said that about your daughter!" Du Ruo was so angry that he stomped his feet and shouted in the Heavenly Book World Realm, "Who was so sad that he cried last night?" In the blink of an eye, you're jumping around, and you're changing your face too quickly! ”

There are three bamboo bottles, one is for Uncle Du, who has been drunk by him, and the other two are for Uncle Lin and his wife.

However, Lin Xiucai has already entered high school, and now he is an official in the capital, and his wife both live in Changning City, and Lin Lushan is the only one in the family who studies with peace of mind to seek fame. These two bamboo bottles have to be sent to Changning City.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and Wu Xie went out to Wu's house.

His eldest brother Wu Cheng still lives in Wujiaji, and in addition to running a pharmacy, he also opened a medical hall by the way, specializing in teaching children some basic pharmacology.

Wu Xie is sure to be an immortal, and the title of Marquis of Jishi can only be inherited from his elder brother through his adopted son. Wu Cheng has no interest in the title, and has never regarded himself as the future old marquis, but he is very jealous of his brother's achievements in medicine, and is determined to teach a large number of doctors.

When Wu Xie came to the door, he happened to be checking the completion of the students' homework, and when he saw his younger brother, he was overjoyed and directly gave the students a day off.

Seeing the group of children happily running out of the city, Wu Xie couldn't help but laugh and tease: "Brother, it seems that your gentleman is a little too majestic, and they are all afraid of you." ”

"I'm strict. In our doctor's profession, a little carelessness may be a human life, how can we do it if we are not strict? Wu Cheng didn't care, and said with a smile, "Brother, why are you back?" And...... Look at your face, why haven't you grown up at all in the past few years? Could it be that it has not grown so long? Do you want to become an old urchin? ”

"I'm an immortal cultivator, and I'm not old! How can you say that it doesn't grow up! Wu Xie suddenly became anxious, "Also, how could such a serious and dignified person as me become an old naughty boy?" ”

"It's always not big, isn't it an old urchin? No matter how serious and solemn you are, no matter how you become an immortal, you can only be an old naughty fairy. Wu Cheng didn't put the immortals in his eyes at all, and he showed no mercy under his mouth.

Wu Xie was speechless by him, the brothers were cross-eyed, you look at me, I look at you, and the last one laughed.

"I'm relieved to see you so spirited! My father and mother are getting older, and I don't know the years on the side of Xianmen, so I can only ask you to do my share of filial piety together! ”

"Don't worry! It's you, you have to take care of yourself when you're away from home! Even if they become immortals, don't immortals have all kinds of troubles and troubles? When you're unhappy, come back and rest, even if your father and mother are gone, brother, I can accompany you to drink and chat or something. ”

"Hmm. I'm leaving. ”

"In such a hurry? Don't you eat before leaving? ”

"I'm going to visit Boss Du and Lin Lao Wu, maybe I'll eat there with them - alas, we immortals stay in the world for too long, it's not good after all. It's easy to get into trouble! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It seems that this immortal is not as comfortable as mortals! ”

"Mortals are as good as mortals, and immortals are as good as gods, like people drinking water, knowing their own warmth and coldness."

Wu Xie went out with a smile, jumped in his brother's words of "take care", and left with the sword light. Only Wu Cheng was left standing at the door and looking at the air for a long time, and then sighed with a smile: "Ah Jie, this guy, is he still like this when he is an immortal...... But that's fine, be a good fairy, brother, I'm proud of you! ”
