Chapter 1: Qin Wen
Yinxia Mountain,
In a somewhat barren courtyard in the Qin family's manor, a heart-rending cough sound came from the main room of the courtyard, and Qin Lu, who was in a hurry outside the door, hurriedly ran into the room.
Tian Yanzi opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was the hollow carving on the top of the bed of the Eight Immortals, but before he could take a closer look, a wave of nausea in his throat made him suddenly turn over and lie on the side of the bed.
On the wooden table where the shoes were placed was a dark-colored wooden barrel, and the sand inside was soaked in dark black blood foam, "Uh. Tian Yanzi opened his mouth, and another mouthful of sticky black blood clots spit into the wooden barrel.
He took a long breath, and the air entered his mouth, and his throat felt as if it had been cut by a knife, but his drowsy mind was still slightly clear.
At this time, Qin Lu ran in from outside the door, wiping his tears and said, "Young master, you woke up, just now you frightened the old slave, you have turned your back on it, it is really fortunate that you woke up again." ”
Tianyanzi was shocked by this inexplicable cry, so he reluctantly waved his hand and said, "Let me be quiet for a while." "The voice was hoarse, like a blunt knife cutting bamboo.
Qin Lu hurriedly agreed: "Okay, young master, you rest first, if the second kid invites the gentleman who sits in the hall, let the gentleman take a look." With that, he exited the room and carefully closed the door.
Tian Yanzi closed his eyes, and some residual consciousness in his mind was slowly absorbed by him, and when he opened his eyes again, he not only smiled bitterly, the original owner of this body was called Qin Wen, and he was a side line of the Qin family for three generations, and the family was sparsely populated, and it was already two generations of single transmission.
His parents died early, and there were only a few servants and Qin Wen himself in the whole courtyard, since Qin Wen had a strange illness three years ago, the rest of the family's money had already spent seventy-seven or eighty-eight for him to see a doctor, except for the family's years, he had no other income, and gradually he couldn't afford to support too many servants.
After dismissing most of the servants, only Qin Lu's family, the old family servant who followed his grandfather back then, and Qin Lu's nephew Qin Erfu, have been serving him in the courtyard.
The Qin family is also a local family, and the three hundred miles near Yinxia Mountain are the property of their Qin family, including two mines that produce spars, but these are not directly related to Qin Wen, although it is said that it is the family business of the whole clan, what he gets is three hundred taels of silver per year, and a piece of lower grade spar per month that is supplied to the age of fifteen.
These are all the information that Tian Yanzi got from Qin Wen, and the rest can still be vaguely remembered, but it should be that this Qin Wen was already terminally ill just now, and when Tian Yanzi's divine consciousness just entered the body, he had already died, and some consciousness also dissipated.
From his consciousness, Tian Yanzi also knew that Qin Wen had practiced the exercises before he got sick, and as for Weishenme, he would suddenly get a strange disease, this was not what Tian Yanzi was worried about, in the eyes of him, a cultivator who had been in contact with medicinal herbs and elixirs for thousands of years, the strange diseases he saw were unknown, and there was nothing he couldn't deal with in this body that had just cultivated to the congenital stage.
As soon as I thought of this, there was a burst of boredom in my chest, the itching in my throat coughed uncontrollably, and another mouthful of black blood with a slightly sweet smell spit into the wooden barrel, and my lungs gasped a few times like bellows, before I took a breath.
At this time, Qin Lu, who was guarding the door, hurriedly ran in again, and after asking a few times, he saw that he was fine, so he went out to wash it with a phlegm bucket.
Tian Yanzi used his divine sense to probe Qin Wen's body, only to find that this is a cultivator's body, basically a body that only has one breath left, the dantian has completely shrunk, the meridians are all blocked, and the black blood coughed up is already a manifestation of illness in the internal organs.
However, he didn't find the cause of the disease, if this is the body of an old man in his last years, he can still understand, after all, birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws, but in a young man with strong blood and blood, it is a little weird.
Looking at the degree of atrophy of the dantian, it can be completely ruled out that it is a madness in cultivation, could it be poisoning? Tian Yanzi's heart suddenly swelled up with an idea.
However, he immediately ruled it out, there was no kind of toxicity that could cause aging so slowly from the blood, and since he got sick, all the meals every day were served after Qin Lu had tasted them himself, which also put an end to the idea of poisoning.
Suddenly, Tian Yanzi felt a pinprick tingling sensation in his spine, this feeling was fleeting, he hurriedly checked it with his divine sense, and saw a white meat worm the size of a needle tip frantically devouring the essence of the backbone, and with the loss of essence, the physique of the meat worm did not completely change.
"Gu worms. This was Tian Yanzi's first reaction, although he couldn't be sure that this was the Gu worm he had come into contact with in his previous life, but the characteristics of this insect should belong to this category.
But he immediately fell into confusion again, according to Tian Yanzi's understanding of Gu worms, this kind of Gu worm that was non-poisonous and did not have any spiritual power attack, if it wanted to go down into a cultivator's body, it would need to be forced into the bone marrow with spiritual power without realizing it.
Since there is such an opportunity, the cultivation of the person who has fallen into the worm must be much higher than that of Qin Wen, and it is without anyone knowing, so wouldn't it be better to kill him directly, why let him suffer from the natural aging of these three years.
However, the cause of the disease has been found, and the following is how to deal with it, after all, now some of Qin Wen's consciousness has dissipated, and Tianyanzi no longer speculates about the origin of the person who went to the worm.
According to the current condition of Qin Wen's body, the possibility of using his spiritual power to force out the Gu worm is very small, but Tian Yanzi is not ready to force the worm out, but wants to spit out all the essence it has absorbed, and then dispose of it, as well as the people who are under the Gu behind him, so as not to be discovered that the Gu worm has disappeared, and he has not yet had the power to protect himself, so as to regenerate other incidents.
This is Tianyanzi's consistent style of acting, he will repay all those who are kind to him, and he will never let go of all those who are enemies of him.
After figuring these things out, Tian Yanzi began to plan how to control Gu worms, if this was in his previous life, he could easily find more than a dozen methods.
And now in a strange shijie, all cognitions have been completely subverted, and he still needs some familiar processes, although there is also the concept of elixir in Qin Wen's consciousness, but some ordinary medicinal materials are also unheard of by him, so he is ready to start by being familiar with these.
Judging from the current time devoured by the Gu worms, the remnant elixir kernel that followed Tianyanzi's divine consciousness into Qin Wen's body should still be able to support it for two or three days, as long as a way is found within these three days.
"Qin Lu," Qin Wen's voice sounded out with insufficient qi.
Qin Lu hurriedly walked in with the washed wooden barrel, placed it on the wooden table and said, "Young Master, are you in trouble?"
Qin Wen thought for a while and said, "Is there any book about pills at home, I want to read it." ”
Qin Lu hurriedly said: "I'll go look for it, my lord used to like to read books like pills, maybe there should be one in the study." ”
Walking out of the room, after about half a pillar of incense, Qin Lu walked in with two thin small books and said, "These two books have been read by the master before, young master, you have to be careful about your body, it will hurt your mind if you use your eyes too much." ”
opened a small manual, which introduced some ordinary elixirs, which was exactly what Tianyanzi needed now, after all, his current identity was just a collateral child of an ordinary family, and the existing resources were limited, as long as he could control the Gu worms first.
After carefully flipping through the two pages, Tianyanzi turned faster and faster, and in less than an hour, he finished a book, and in between, he vomited two mouthfuls of blood, and a high futon was also padded behind him.
Closing his eyes tightly, Tian Yanzi's mind kept tumbling, this shijie's elixir is similar to the previous life, but some have changed in title, but there are also some medicinal materials that have never been seen before, these are not a problem for Tian Yanzi, as long as he solves his own problems first, he will have time to study these later.
"Qin Lu, you come in. ”
Qin Lu, who was standing outside the door and was still waiting for his husband, pushed the door and walked in again, "Young master, is there anything wrong with you?"
"This, can you buy a medicinal herb called Pure Cloud Grass in the bazaar?" Qin Wen said with a pale finger pointing to a medicinal herb in the book.
Qin Lu was stunned for a moment, in the past three years, he had been decocting medicine for Qin Wen, and he also knew a little bit about the elixir, so he nodded and said, "You should be able to buy it, young master, what do you want this for?"
Qin Wen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said, "Then you go and buy ten plants first, and then buy some concocted haode shell ginseng, mica root, and these" Qin Wen pointed to the book and said a few more.
After Qin Lu wrote it down, he said with some doubts: "At that time, Mr. Sun from the pharmacy on the west side of the south gate said that the young master is now empty and cannot be supplemented, and if you buy these tonics, I am afraid it will not be good for the young master's health." ”
Qin Wen waved his hand and said, "You go buy it, these things won't be used until I'm well, cough cough, remember, the fresher the Pure Cloud Grass, the better." ”
Qin Lu said in a low voice, "Yes, young master." ”
It was almost noon, Qin Lu walked into the room with a few medicine bags, put all the medicinal materials on the table and said with some embarrassment: "Young master, the medicine has already been bought, but the pure cloud grass is too expensive, one plant costs five taels of silver, and I only bought six plants." Now that our silver has been paid until next year, Mr. Zhang in the account room said that he can only borrow so much this year, and I want to leave some silver money for the young master to invite Mr. ”
Qin Wen thought about it in his heart, according to his habit, all the medicinal materials were kept in backup, and the six pure cloud grasses could also be used, he smelled the pure cloud grass, licked it lightly, the medicinal effect was the same as what he saw, and nodded and said: "Qin Lu, I know, in the future, we don't need to find someone to come to see the doctor, you go and fry these three pure cloud grass five bowls and one bowl, and then find a clean stove and incense." ”
Qin Lu didn't know that after Qin Wen woke up from his illness today, his temperament suddenly changed a little, let him buy medicine and the like, with his habits over the years, the young master should spend some money, but he was a little worried that the young master would find medicine to eat indiscriminately, and if it was bad again, it would be troublesome, so he reminded him slightly: "Young master, you see that this medicine has not been used by Mr. before, don't eat it indiscriminately." ”
A hint of blush appeared on Qin Wen's pale face and said, "No problem, this medicine can't get rid of the roots, and it can't drink the dead, by the way, just boil some porridge at dinner." ”
Seeing that he was so persistent, Qin Lu took a medicinal herb out of the room.
