Shi Xuan was full of food and drink, and the whole person had time to observe this quaint city that was completely different from modern society. While reminiscing about the road to the south of the city, I looked around, probably because today was a market, and there was a lot of people, and there were some small vendors on both sides, selling some daily necessities, and it seemed that they had been here for a long time. The vegetable sellers are generally concentrated in a few of the streets, and out of these streets, only a few streets can be seen sporadically in the south of the city.

It's June now, and there are a lot of people wearing Taoist robes on the street, and some people are even wearing Taoist robes and shaking folding fans, looking nondescript.

Shi Xuan came to Shuijing Street in the south of the city, found a pharmacy that looked the largest and had the most people, and walked to the door, only to see three big characters similar to Wei on the door plaque - Tongrentang. Shi Xuan was shocked, Tongrentang was really powerful, and the branches had all opened to the other world.

After entering the door, I went straight to the counter, and saw that the shopkeeper was greeting customers, and it was a good time to smile at the apprentice at the counter, say hello, and open my mouth to report several medicinal materials in the prescription. The junior apprentice saw that although there were two kinds of precious medicinal materials, they were also relatively large in stock, so he didn't ask Shi Xuan much, and directly grabbed the oil paper and handed it to Shi Xuan: "Chenghui four taels or three dollars of silver." ”

Shi Xuan was secretly surprised in his heart by the high cost of prescription medicinal materials, this is only a few of them, according to this view, his property may only be able to prepare more than fifty medicinal materials, and the medicinal materials bought each time can be used for about three days and six times, if the soul has not entered the soul strengthening period after half a year, he will have to go bankrupt. The poor are rich and martial, and the Taoist priests of the defeated families really have a certain truth. Of course, people who practice martial arts do not have such magical and precious prescriptions, and the prescriptions used by ordinary martial arts practitioners to forge their bodies cost about dozens of taels of silver a year, and the more precious ones are about one or two hundred taels, which is also very terrifying, you must know that Shi Xuan's small courtyard is only worth two or three hundred taels of silver.

Although he was surprised in his heart, his face remained silent, he took out the broken silver and paid for it, and then went to several medicinal herb stores to complete the medicinal materials on the prescription, so that buying them separately can effectively prevent others from seeing the preciousness of the prescription through the purchased medicinal materials. Thus causing unnecessary trouble.

Then he went to the butcher shop and told the shopkeeper that he planned to invite relatives and friends to a dog meat feast, and asked the shopkeeper to send four live dogs to his small courtyard in the west of the city.

Shi Xuan returned to the small courtyard, meditated and breathed for a while, and after regaining his calm, he went to the left wing room to find the spare three medicine jars, and then pinched and recited the mantra, mobilized the five elements of the body's qi and the induction of heaven and earth, and cast a dust removal spell to clean up the medicine jar. Then, according to the last drug, it was divided into three parts, and each was put in according to the amount of medicine and the amount of water. At this time, you can't use the commonly used medicine jar, because no matter how you clean it, there will always be some medicine residues in the commonly used medicine jar, and there is no problem under normal circumstances, but now it is a prescription similar to alchemy, and a little extra medicine can lead to failure.

Carry the medicine jar into the kitchen, there is a row of small stoves that Lao Dao often uses to refine medicine, and after putting it away, find wood and light it with ignition. Shi Xuan began to feel a little tired, hey, the soul is too weak, although the Qi cultivation period can mobilize the five elements of the body to cast spells, but after all, the soul power will be consumed, of course, the five elements of the body during the Qi cultivation period is also the reason why Shi Xuan can cast spells with the soul of the soul cultivation period.

Shi Xuan cheered up, didn't dare to slack off, pinched the trick and recited a good spell, the fire control technique was cast, and carefully controlled the fire, until half an hour passed, the most difficult part of the front passed, now he only needs to keep the fire on the simmer and slowly boil it for another two hours.

Shi Xuan took a long breath at this time, only to feel that the whole person was dizzy, so he quickly sat down cross-legged, exhaled and breathed, and it took a while before he had the power to act. When Zheng Sunan, the shopkeeper of the butcher shop, sent two black, two yellow and four dogs, Shi Xuan's face returned to normal.

After leashing the four dogs, Shi Xuan fetched a bucket of well water from the small well and drank it beautifully, and then went into the house to sort out the relics of the old Taoist priest.

Shi Xuan entered Lao Dao's room for the first time since Lao Dao's death, the room was very neat, Shi Xuan searched around, except for some clothes and commonly used things, it was a gray package, these clothes were of little use to Shi Xuan, his figure was not suitable, and he would not be able to needlework if he changed it. It seems that Lao Dao has some premonition about his death, and everything has been received in the package.

Open the package, there are three things inside, the same is an ancient book "Returning to the True Sutra", which is the true transmission obtained by the old Tao, and it is also the method of practicing before this body, but for Shi Xuan, he has the "Shangqing Yu Zhen Transmission of the Treasure Record of the Dao", which is the root of the Dao, then the practice method of this scripture is not very useful, but the Taoism in the "Treasure Record" is derived from the fundamental, except for several magical powers that require the cultivation of foreign objects, most of them are Taoist techniques that can only be practiced during the Jindan period and later. And there are more ways to use the Tao on the Guizhen Sutra, although they are all spells, because of the realm restrictions, the power is not great, but the spells are magical, and there are always all kinds of usefulness.

Shi Xuan thought that the power was not great, so he thought of "Treasure Record" On the need to use foreign objects to practice a divine channel technique, Taiyin lung Yang Gengjin sword qi, this magic power needs to find a piece of Gengjin, and then use the secret method to absorb the Gengjin qi stored in the lungs, and use the secret method to boil at night, and finally it can be formed, according to the description of the great power, and unlike the casting of spells, you need to pinch the spell time, it is extremely fast to use, and the monks of the Divine Soul Period may not be able to block its edge, of course, it is another matter if you can't hit it, because this magic power has a distance limit, and there is a limit on the number of times. Of course, as the sword qi is slowly cultivated in the future, the power and distance will become greater.

But it's just thinking about it, this magic power requires the minimum out-of-body period to be cultivated, because there is no subtle control of one's soul, what to use to control the Gengjin Qi, there is no strong power of internal qi, what to use in the lungs to resist the sharpness of the Gengjin Qi. Of course, it's nothing without Gengjin, Taiyi real gold, Western gold essence, Taibai essence, these legendary artifacts for practicing immortal swords can be used, but the magic power is just a name, of course, these are also available but not sought.

The strange thing is that Qingyunzi said in "Baolu" that before the Jindan period, this supernatural power, as well as the other four supernatural powers, must be cultivated (Shaoyin Heart Yang Void True Fire, Yin Yin Liver Yang Aoki Transformation Determination, Taiyin Spleen Yang Mountain Town Shape Gong, Shaoyin Kidney Yin Ice Spirit Divine Light), and it will be a great benefit to enter the Jindan period at that time, what is the specific benefit, Qingyunzi sold a pass.

To get back to the point, "Returning to the True Sutra" is also a fundamental part of the true transmission of a Taoist method, and there is no foundation for refining tools and alchemy, which is really a pity.

Shi Xuan put the "Returning to the True Scripture" aside, and suddenly thought that he would major in the "Treasure Record" in the future, so Xu Laodao's Taoism would not be lost, although he and Xu Laodao did not have the actual master-apprentice relationship, but Xu Laodao's care for Du Bai was also seen through memory fragments, since it is now his own **, then he must be grateful for his kindness and repay his affection, it seems that he can only wait for himself to travel the world in the future to find another good material and beautiful jade to pass on the Taoism.

Shi Xuan looked at another thing, this is a stack of talisman seals tied up, about a dozen or so, it is the self-defense thing that Xu Laodao prepared for his disciples in the last year, you must know that although you can use the spell when you enter the period of nourishing the qi and strengthening the soul, but the spell at this time requires many steps and a long time, so it is often drawn in advance, and only a spell or even a little soul power is needed to stimulate the talisman seal when the time comes, and Xu Laodao, as a master of the out-of-body period, the talisman seal left behind must be better than Shi Xuan's disciple a lot.

Shi Xuan carefully inspected the Xia Fu Seal, a total of seventeen chapters, of which there were four of them, four of each, the Stealth Qi Concealment Talisman, the Soil Absorption Talisman into the Armor Talisman, the Qi Inducing Thunder Talisman, and the Golden Light Soul Breaking Talisman. The other one is a talisman seal written with the ancient cloud seal (the content of the ancient thunder pattern and the ancient cloud seal in the "Treasure Record") - Taiyi thunder, with a faint thunder light on it, and the handwriting is simple, it doesn't look like Xu Laodao can draw it, it is not inherited when it is really transmitted, or it is obtained from traveling and encountering.

The last thing is a mirror and a piece of paper pasted on it by Lao Dao, which says that this is obtained by Lao Dao in a deserted temple in the old mountain in Huxi, this mirror is fixed in the temple for a hundred years The old ghost does not know for decades, the old Tao passed by in the unknown way, moved the mirror, let the old ghost get out of trouble, a good fight, the old Tao almost died, and finally used one of the two Taiyi Thunder Talisman obtained when he met the true legend to kill the hundred-year-old ghost, and the mirror was also affected and broken. Although Xu Laodao couldn't recognize the mirror material, he finally picked up the largest fragment of the mirror and made it back into a mirror, but it no longer had the power it used to be, and it could no longer even be calculated, and it could only be determined to be a weak ghost because of the innate spirit.

However, it is precisely because the materials are very good that Xu Laodao plans to leave it to his disciples, and if he has the opportunity to re-practice a magic weapon in the future. As mentioned earlier, before the Jindan period, there are various steps in casting spells, although with the improvement of the realm will save a lot of casting time, but there are always people who think that casting spells are slow, so they come up with various alternative methods, such as talismans, and magic weapons. Borrowing foreign objects to practice supernatural powers on the treasure record can also be regarded as an alternative method.

Magic weapons, with the right materials, with the right prohibitions, take time to refine the spell-casting utensils, powerful, easy to use, is the most favored thing by monks. Of course, it is also a precious anomaly. The things of magic weapons are divided into four levels: magic weapons, spiritual weapons, magic weapons, and spiritual treasures. The refining of the magic weapon is used in the corresponding earth evil prohibition, and the magic weapon and the earth evil are fully integrated into the Tiangang prohibition and advanced to the spirit weapon, and only then can the refining of the Tiangang prohibition be continued. The prohibition of magic weapons and spiritual treasures is called treasure prohibition and spirit prohibition respectively. Generally speaking, magic weapons and spiritual weapons are considered to be things in the Qi training period, and magic weapons and spiritual treasures are things in the Yuan Shen period.

Shi Xuan checked the relics left by Lao Dao, put the scriptures close to his body, and put the talisman in the hidden pocket in his belt and sleeve for easy access, only the mirror received his own package, and now there are no other suitable materials or refining techniques, and it is useless to drool when thinking about it.

Shi Xuan rested a little, and the time for the medicinal herbs to boil was up.
