Chapter 10: The Use of the Corpse Pill
This is the way things are in the world, whether it is the Qingyang Sect or the former Luo Sect or the White Lotus Sect, the upper echelons of the sect are categorically disbelieving that set of doctrines, but the people below are convinced that in terms of the word "piety", the bottom believers are far better than the sect leader.
"Good. Li Xuandu withdrew his palm and said with a smile: "I hope you don't try to escape, otherwise my knife will be merciless." ”
The words fell, and the "cold beauty" swept to Li Xuandu's side, and the tip of the knife pointed at the floating clouds.
Fuyun let out a long sigh of relief, got up slowly, and said, "We came to Beibi Mountain this time for the phoenix gall and the Taiyin corpse. ”
"I know that. Li Xuandu glanced at Jin Suan's corpse, turned his head to look at Fuyun, and said, "Tell me something I don't know." ”
Fuyun hesitated for a moment and said, "As far as I know, the reason why General Rengong is interested in the Taiyin Corpse is actually because of a master. ”
Li Xuandu frowned and said, "Is that the master who told you the location of the phoenix gall?"
"Yes. Fuyun nodded and said: "I don't know who this master's name is, and I don't know which sect he comes from, I only know that General Rengong has great respect for him, and everything must be called Mr." ”
Li Xuan didn't continue to ask who this mysterious master was, but asked, "What are you going to do with the Taiyin corpse?"
Fuyun said: "I don't know much about this, I only heard the general mention it once, and it seems to be related to the corpse pill." ”
Nan Kezi, who had just returned to this place, heard this and said: "The Taiyin corpse was a person who had achieved cultivation before his death, and after his death, his true qi did not disperse, and the corpse qi condensed, making the golden pill turn into a corpse pill, if this corpse pill can be taken out, it has both yin and yang, but it is a rare thing of the next rank in the world, only in terms of value, the phoenix gall is the most yang thing, and the corpse pill is the most yin thing, which is comparable, but in terms of rarity, it is this corpse pill that is better." ”
Li Xuandu nodded: "I understand, the Qingyang Sect is not here for the Taiyin corpse, but for the corpse pill, the corpse pill is to the Taiyin corpse, as the dragon ball is to the dragon, if you want to take the pill, you must kill the Taiyin corpse, and the Soap Pavilion Sect does not want a dead corpse, they want a living Taiyin corpse, from this point of view, the Qingyang Sect and the Soap Pavilion Sect are naturally not all the way, and it is reasonable to hide it from the Soap Pavilion Sect." ”
The two glanced at each other, and Nan Kezi said: "Beibi Mountain is already a place where the water depth is difficult to see the bottom, and now it is such a mixture of fish and dragons, and the water is even more turbid, and now the two of us are still on the edge of Beibi Mountain, that is, on the water, if we go deep into the water, it will be difficult to say, should we continue to go deeper?"
Li Xuandu said: "Of course you want to go, if you don't want to wade into this muddy water, don't even come to Beibi Mountain, wouldn't it be better?"
Nan Kezi had no objection, then looked at Fuyun and asked, "What should I do with this person?"
Fuyun's face suddenly showed a look of horror.
Li Xuandu looked at Fuyun and said: "Don't worry, I promised you, as long as you answer the question, I won't kill you, and I won't let the Dao Master kill you, I haven't done that yet." ”
Fuyun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and said with some surprise: "Your Excellency means ......"
Li Xuandu continued: "Although I despise the Qingyang Sect's style of acting, there are priorities, and now I don't want to be hostile to the Qingyang Sect. Phoenix gall, I will never give it to you, a phoenix gall for a life, it should be very cost-effective, after all, things are dead, you can find it again if you don't have it, but people are alive, people can't be resurrected when they die, and if they die, there will be nothing. ”
Fuyun smiled bitterly and said: "Your Excellency can spare my life, it is already a blessing to invite heaven, where can I dare to have other extravagant hopes." ”
Li Xuandu said: "It's good to understand, as for our affairs, how should you explain to General Rengong, I also advise you, you still have to think carefully, not only to highlight your hard work, but also not to be detained as unfavorable,"
The person had to bow his head under the eaves, and Fuyun responded: "Remember it below." ”
Li Xuandu took the "cold beauty" back into the sheath on his waist and waved his hand.
Fuyun stared at Li Xuandu cautiously, and slowly retreated, until he withdrew from a distance of dozens of zhang, before he turned around abruptly and disappeared into the dense forest in a few jumps.
After the clouds were completely gone, Li Xuandu spoke: "Dao Chang is an expert in alchemy, he should know a lot about corpse pills, according to Dao Chang, what is the purpose of the corpse pill that the Qingyang Sect is looking for?"
Nan Kezi gently twisted the goatee under his chin, and said: "Others may not know, but the poor road knows a little bit about it, this corpse pill is a thing of the yin, but it is different from phoenix gall, it can be used in medicine, although the requirements for taking medicine are very harsh, it is tantamount to poison for ordinary people, but for ghost cultivators, it is a great tonic, in addition to ......"
Speaking of this, the old Taoist was a little hesitant.
Li Xuan couldn't help asking: "What else is there?" The Taoist chief might as well say bluntly, Li will definitely not pass on today's words to others. ”
Since Mr. Li said so, then the poor road was blunt. Nan Kezi let out a long sigh and said: "The reason why the pill refined from the corpse pill is no different from poison in the living is because the yin qi in it is excessive, and it is counterproductive with the yang energy in the living person's body. However, in addition to ghost cultivators, there is another kind of person who can take it, and that is people who are about to die. When a person is about to die, his qi and blood are declining, his yang qi is weakening, his yin qi is gradually flourishing, and then his yin and yang are unbalanced. ”
"Continuation of life?" Li Xuan was taken aback and said, "The corpse pill contains death qi, how can it renew the life of the living?"
Nan Kezi said: "Ordinary life-sustaining things, the principle is to make up for what is lacking, if the essence and blood are insufficient, the essence and blood will be replenished, and if the yang is insufficient, the yang qi will be replenished. But in the view of the poor road, a person's life is like the national fortune of a country, and when a person is about to die, it is like the last years of the dynasty, there are many ills, it has been a building collapsed, it is irretrievable, the so-called continuation of life is actually a hanging life, only the real immortal medicine, can turn the tide, but where is the immortal medicine so good, when the ancestral dragon raised the power of the whole country, and sent Fang Shi Gaoren, and three thousand boys and girls, in the end it was just ......"
Li Xuandu interrupted softly: "Dao Chief, we are talking about corpse pills, not immortal medicines. ”
"As soon as Poor Dao talked about Dan Dao numerology, he couldn't help it, Mr. Li forgive me. The old Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then said with some sneer: "When it comes to the corpse pill, it is to fight poison with poison, the so-called yin and yang are born, and the yin qi of the dying person is extremely heavy, and the corpse pill is compatible, so the poison becomes a good medicine, and the two yin turn yang, and it can really become a life-sustaining medicine." However, there are many hidden dangers in this method, first of all, it must be supplemented with many other precious medicines, after all, the corpse pill is still a dead thing to yin, if it is not a grandmaster figure in the realm of returning to the truth, a pill into the abdomen, I am afraid that it will not be able to wait for the two yin to turn into yang, and it will already be a life, so you need to take the medicine of hanging life first to protect your life, this is one of them. Even if the second qi is successfully transformed into yang, the evil qi contained in the corpse pill is also a big problem, one carelessness will make people corpses, half human and half ghost, life is better than death, this is the second. There is also a third, that is, it is extremely difficult to refine medicine with corpse pills, it costs money, damages yin morality, and works for many days, just take the poor road as an example, no matter whether it can be refined or not, this kind of loss-making business is never done. ”
Speaking of this, Nan Kezi said to himself in confusion: "Who does the Qingyang Sect want to give to to whom does the Qingyang Sect want to renew their lives?" As far as I know, whether it is Tang Zhou, the general of the Heavenly Prince, or Tang Qin, the general of the Earth Prince, and Tang Han, the general of the Rengong, they are all less than the age of the sixtieth birthday, and there are no rumors that they are seriously injured and lose their lives, and it is not yet time to prolong their lives. ”
Li Xuandu suddenly said, "Could it be the one who instructed them to get the phoenix gall?"
"Mr. Li clearly sees that this should be the case. Nan Kezi immediately agreed.
Li Xuandu said softly: "The birth of the Taiyin corpse this time is really getting more and more treacherous, the Zhengyi Sect of the righteous path, the Cihang Sect, the Soap Pavilion Sect of the evil path, plus a Qingyang Sect that can't be beaten by eight poles and the masters behind them, as well as those of us who help from the side, how many people will be involved?"
Nan Kezi also looked worried when he heard this, and muttered: "There won't be another battle between good and evil because of this matter, right?"
