Chapter 31: Gifting Dan

Daoist Buji broke the pill in his hand into one large and one small, the large one was two-thirds the size, wrapped it in leaves, and put it in his arms. Then he divided the small one into nine pieces, and kneaded them into nine pills the size of beans by hand, wrapped them in leaves, and handed them to God.

"Fortunately, I have the help of the benefactor, otherwise I would have missed out on the results of the painstaking efforts of several generations of respected teachers in this sect. In order to express gratitude, I only gave this elixir as a gift, and I hope to accept it with a smile. ”

Tianci couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it, wrap it in a cloth and put it in his arms. Seeing that Tianci accepted the elixir, Buji was very happy and said, "Don't underestimate some things, this is the secret recipe of this sect." If you take a small pill of this pill, your internal strength can be increased by twenty years. Remember: a person can only take a maximum of three capsules, and no more than two capsules in a year, which is the limit of what the human body can bear. ”

"Of course, if the internal strength or vitality is severely damaged, you can take this pill immediately for a quick recovery. This pill can also treat the dying sick whose lives are hanging by a thread, and has the effect of reviving the dead. ”

"I followed the master when I was young, and I was only responsible for collecting firewood and burning fires in the Dan furnace room, picking medicine and alchemy, but because of my lack of talent, I couldn't learn the master's kung fu skills. ”

"Then how did your master pass away?" Tianci asked, interrupting Buji's words.

"Well, I don't know why. Buji sighed and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he continued: "I was only 13 years old that year, and I went to the capital with Master and his two senior disciples, and borrowed a Taoist temple called Tianshi Cave in the suburbs. ”

"The next day, several officials sent by the imperial court came to the Taoist temple and said that the master asked me to bring a few medicinal herbs and enter the palace with them. The strange thing is that these herbs were already brought by the master when he went out, but I didn't dare to slack off, and after sorting the medicinal materials, I followed them into the palace and met the master. ”

"I don't want the master to see me, but he will be furious, scolding me for being stupid and ignorant, and not being able to teach, saying that this is medicine prescribed to your senior brother, what are you doing here, so useless, and you will expel me from the master, let me get out of the sect!"

Tianci asked curiously, "What kind of medicine did Master let you bring, did you make a mistake?"

"How is it possible, the official sent me a handwritten medicine list from Master, which reads: Sha Yuanzi, Poria Cocos, Four Seasons Green, Army Bone Grass and other four-flavor medicinal materials. I'm just taking the medicine according to the order, and I've been following the master for many years to catch the medicine and refine the medicine, how could I be mistaken. Buji said aggrievedly.

"Just when I was full of doubts and I didn't know what to do, Master approached me and whispered to me, 'For the sake of the Master's life, you should leave here quickly, and take care of the Dan Furnace to fulfill the Master's wish. After saying that, he quietly stuffed a note into the palm of my hand, and then knocked me out a few feet away with one palm, and shouted at me to get out, I was shocked and frightened for a while, and collapsed to the ground, and then two guards dragged me out and threw me outside the palace gate. Buji still looks frightened when he recalls the scene.

"I stayed in the capital for ten days, and then I saw dozens of human heads hanging on the walls of the palace, including my master's head. I don't know what the master has to do with the royal family, and I don't dare to inquire about it, and I didn't dare to inquire about it. Recalling the past, Buji looked extremely melancholy, and his eyes were blurred with tears.

Unexpectedly, this Taoist priest had such a strange experience, Tianci sighed secretly in his heart, and he asked Buji again: "What about your two senior brothers?

"I guess I was killed with my master, and I haven't even seen the corpse. ”

"What about the senior brother that your master said, haven't you gone to him?" Tianci asked.

"I entered the Tao when I was a child, and since I followed Master, I have never heard of any senior brothers, but I have heard that Master once saved a boy and enlightened him for a few years, and then he left, and I don't know where he went. This person may be the so-called senior brother, but I have never seen it, and I don't know his name. ”

"Then why did your master say that the medicinal herbs were for Senior Brother? Maybe it was a hint that if you go to Senior Brother, he might know something. Tianci speculated.

Hearing Tianci say this, Bu Ji suddenly realized: "Yes, why didn't I expect it, Master suddenly said that back then, it should have meant something, but it's not easy to say it clearly." He obviously asked for those medicines, but he said that I was mistaken, and said that it was medicine for Senior Brother, which meant that I should give those medicines to Senior Brother?

"Hmm. Tianci nodded and said, "It can be understood in this way." ”

Buji suddenly slapped his head with his palm and said loudly, "I'm so stupid, I didn't even understand what Master meant. ”

"Okay, now that the task of alchemy has been completed, I will have time to find Senior Brother, and when the time comes, give him those few flavored medicines to see if he knows Master's intentions or the reason. Buji was a little happy again, and he bowed his hand to Tianci and said, "Thank you for your guidance, I have helped me a lot when I met you." ”

"You're welcome, I should thank you for giving me your rare elixir. Tianci also returned the salute and said: "It's not too early, I have to continue to hurry, and I will say goodbye to the Taoist chief, if there is a fate, there will be a period later!"

After saying goodbye to the Buji Daoist, the two of them went on their separate roads and went their separate ways.
