Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Priceless Treasure
The scene of some verbal arguments just now has finally come to an end. Li Qingxuan was about to take a seat. But seeing Zhu Gongzi say gloomily, "Doctor Li, where is your congratulatory gift?" Li Qingxuan paused. One farce ended, and another set off, and everyone watched this scene with great interest. Li Qingxuan put his hand into his arms and said leisurely: "Congratulatory gifts are naturally available." ”
"This son sees that you are dressed as a Confucian student, quite literate, and you often read when you want to come, isn't it an inkstone?" Zhu Gongzi shook his fan and said with a smile: "If it is an inkstone, it will be exempted, I heard that a noble person in the capital has already sent a well-known inkstone, called Meizi inkstone." "Meizi inkstone, people who don't know it, only think that the name of this inkstone is so elegant and elegant.
People who recognize this inkstone, all of them are surprised, this inkstone is quite precious, it is from one of the four famous inkstones, Shezhou famous inkstone, and it is the top grade of Shezhou famous inkstone. It is Liu Yushi, who seems to have expected it.
Li Qingxuan said secretly in his heart: "It seems that this Zhu Yanei has already learned that the Yu family gave me an eyebrow inkstone, and his words make it clear that he blocked the way for me to use the eyebrow inkstone as a gift." He obviously wants to make me lose face, targeting me everywhere, it is bound to be a discord with the Yu family, the person behind the scenes who gave me three hundred taels of silver must be him. ”
A hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of the old lady of the Yu family, and only a few people knew about the eyebrow inkstone, but Zhu Gongzi pointed out on the spot, it seems that there are internal ghosts in the Yu family, and they must be cleaned up. Zhu Gongzi pointed out this matter, and cut off the way of Meizi Yan as a gift, although Li Qingxuan was born in a scholarly family, but since the death of his parents, his family has fallen into the middle of the road, where is the heavy gift?
If this young man doesn't know the importance and really takes the eyebrow inkstone, then everyone will know that this congratulatory gift is actually from the Yu family, and the so-called gift is just a trick. This method has spread out, and it has only increased the laughing stock.
Zhu Gongzi saw that the old man of the Yu family had an ugly face, and Li Qingxuan didn't answer for a long time, his heart was very happy, and he smiled playfully: "Doctor Li, you have any birthday gifts, but please offer it." Li Qingxuan raised her eyebrows slightly, and said lightly: "Congratulatory gifts are naturally available." He pulled out an object. A piece of gold leaf. The golden light is dazzling. "Oh, gold leaves?"
Zhu Gongzi said meaningfully: "For ordinary people, a piece of gold leaf is a very valuable gift, but the Yu family is a high-ranking family! Your piece of gold leaf is made of full red gold, and how much silver taels can it be worth?
The people present are all high-ranking people, and the congratulatory gifts are naturally extraordinary. Don't say that a gold leaf is a gold ingot, what is it? This gold leaf is full of red gold, how much value can it be? Originally, the old man of the Yu family was quite happy when he saw this gold leaf presented by Li Qingxuan, although this gold leaf is not heavy, it can be regarded as a gift that can be seen, but when Zhu Gongzi said this, he offended many people.
Li Qingxuan said with some mockery: "This is not gold, and I guess I don't know this thing with Zhu Gongzi's knowledge." Zhu Gongzi sneered even more, "It's not gold, is it just a dyed leaf?" Li Qingxuan didn't answer him, holding the leaf with both hands and slowly presenting it. "It's raspberry grass. An old voice said slowly: "According to the classics, hundred-year-old raspberry grass!"
Everyone saw that it was Liu Wuye who spoke. Seeing that Liu Wuye's eyes were full of energy, no longer muddy, he stared at the golden leaf, and said in a low voice: "Raspberry grass can only grow for twelve years, and only a few can live for fourteen years." "The leaves of the common raspberry grass are refreshing and eye-catching. ”
Liu Wuye paused, and then said: "But there is also an excellent product, which is the fifteen-year-old raspberry grass, that is, the raspberry grass that has grown for fifteen years, its leaves have not been picked after fifteen years, and after fifteen years, it will metamorphose overnight, and the medicinal effect can be increased by a hundred times. Liu Wuye looked at Zhu Gongzi and said with a smile: "It is rumored that there is a hundred-year-old raspberry grass that grows for a hundred years and the leaves do not fall for a hundred years. Just take a sip to make people refreshed, sleepless for several days, if you take it, it is bound to return to the source, so as to improve the physique, to achieve the effect of prolonging life for ten years. ”
The audience was suddenly silent, and suddenly there was an uproar. "A fairy thing that prolongs life?" "A leaf can prolong life for ten years?!" "Isn't that an elixir?" "Raspberry grass generally only lives for eleven or twelve years, and fifteen years is rare, but this one is a hundred years long? And the leaves have not been picked for a hundred years?" Some people are shocked and inexplicable, but some people's eyes are hot, burning like flames, and they want to keep it for themselves.
"It turns out that this leaf is really a hundred-year-old raspberry grass. Although Li Qingxuan was surprised, he was still expected, that Jin Dan was extremely extraordinary, and it was also expected that it had this miraculous effect of growing plants and trees. In the burning eyes of many people, Li Qingxuan offered the raspberry grass with both hands. "It's just a small courtesy, light as a feather, far less valuable than gold, and please don't dislike Old Man Yu. ”
Dislike? This thing can make people's minds clear, so as to return to the source, improve their physique, and prolong their life for ten years after taking it, who still dislikes it? With this treasure, I am afraid that I hope that the more the better! Such an immortal medicine is even called a thin gift? It is not as precious as gold? Zhu Gongzi only felt that his face was very hot, and he really wanted to find a mouse hole to get into, but fortunately, everyone was attracted by the hundred-year-old raspberry grass and grass leaves, and did not pay strange eyes to him.
Old Lady Yu was almost a little shocked, his eyes were full of disbelief and inexplicable emotion, he took the raspberry grass with both hands, his hands could barely bear it, and he trembled a little. This piece of gold leaf, although light as a feather, but the weight of the weight, but heavier than Mount Tai. For a dying old man, what could be more precious than a treasure that prolongs his life for ten years?
Wu Jun Yu's family has had a great opportunity in the past two years, like the rising sun in the east, like a momentum in full swing, and he is almost a rare age, and his body bones have always been bad, if he leaves in this situation that makes the family in the ascendant, and cannot see the future glory of the Yu family, how can he be willing? How can he be blind? If he is not afraid of being rude, this old man will almost burst into tears.
Li Qingxuan's face was light, and he secretly said in his heart: "I can grow hundred-year-old raspberry grass from the leftovers after cooking porridge with Jindan Lingshui, which shows how precious Jindan is? I already have Jindan, and I also have true qi cultivation, and now I have the sword pill method of the Sword Immortal, and I have found a little way to the Immortal Road, and the road ahead is Yangguan Avenue." ”
Liu Wuye stared at the hundred-year-old raspberry grass for a long time before he withdrew his somewhat heartwarming gaze and landed on Li Qingxuan's face. This handsome Li Jialangjun, in addition to being a little gentle and elegant, seems to have a little more mysterious atmosphere.
Hearing that this thing has the effect of prolonging life, Liu Yushi was also a little surprised, and couldn't help asking: "I often hear in the capital that thousand-year-old ginseng, Tianshan Snow Lotus, thousand-year-old He Shou Wu and other miraculous medicines can nourish qi and blood, so as to achieve the effect of prolonging life. Why haven't you heard of this hundred-year-old raspberry grass?" I hadn't even heard of Liu Yushi, and the rest of the people didn't have to say much.
And most of the people pricked up their ears and listened carefully. Liu Wuye glanced at Li Qingxuan slightly. Li Qingxuan sat down and said: "The younger generation has only seen the records of the classics, and only mentioned one sentence, and the rest is unknown. Liu Wuye is a national player in Xinglin, erudite and knowledgeable, and please solve the doubts for the younger generations and gentlemen. "There are many medicinal materials in the world, most of which nourish qi and blood and strengthen the body, such as the Tianshan Snow Lotus and the thousand-year-old mountain ginseng. ”
Liu Wuye paused, and then said: "Brother Yi Kuang has been given three hundred years of He Shou Wu to nourish qi and blood, and for several years, his body is still healthy, because of the abundance of qi and blood, and all kinds of miscellaneous things such as sleep and appetite are harmonized, and he can be full of energy. This hundred-year-old raspberry grass is rare, first nourishing the mind, waiting until the spirit and spirit are complete, returning to the source, naturally driving the body's qi and blood changes, becoming more and more benevolent, and can prolong life for ten years. ”
Liu Yushi muttered: "In this way, it may be a little strange. "If you think it's too strange to say that, and it involves ghosts and gods, then put it simply. Some people are depressed, and over time, their qi and blood will coagulate, and they will die in the yin. And some people are cheerful, light and healthy, and even stubborn diseases that are difficult to cure with drugs can be cured without medicine. ”
Liu Wuye said: "The mood of the mind, whether peaceful or chaotic, affects the condition of the body, which has long been recorded in medical books. Li Qingxuan nodded secretly, he cultivated innate vitality, and felt the deepest about this kind of thing, it was precisely because the mind could make changes in the body that he had a sense of qi, and over time, true qi was formed. When everyone heard Liu Wuye say, they were a little stunned.
Liu Yushi frowned and said, "So, what's the difference?" "It is also a medicinal material that nourishes the body, although the initial effect of the medicine is different, but in the end, it can still make people refreshed and healthy, and there is not much difference. Liu Wuye said leisurely: "But this hundred-year-old raspberry grass is even rarer than thousand-year-old ginseng. "Ginseng that is more than 100 years old is already a treasure, and more than 1,000 years old is a treasure, as for 10,000-year-old ginseng, it is unheard of and unseen.
If this 100-year-old raspberry grass is equivalent to the medicinal effect of 500-year-old ginseng, it is already an amazing gift. But Liu Wuye actually said that this leaf is rarer than thousand-year-old ginseng. A golden leaf of raspberry grass, though not made of gold, is many times more precious than a box of gold jewelry.
