Volume 2 Corpse Transformation Witch Chu Chapter 77 The Secret of Immortality
Li Er saw that Ouyang was listening, so he continued: "But on the other hand, looking at birds and beasts, taking goats as an example, it only takes one year to become a lamb, but there is a fifteen-year lifespan. It takes fifteen months for a green cow to reach adulthood and a lifespan of twenty. The longevity of birds and beasts is more than ten times that of adulthood, but the person who is the head of all spirits cannot be compared with it, why do you think it is? ”
Are your ideas so avant-garde?!
The relationship between pregnancy and development and life expectancy is a law discovered by scientists in later generations, and regarded it as a way to crack the equation of human life.
I don't know if it's because of years of experience, or because Li Er himself is also pursuing immortality.
In short, he was able to find a formula for the natural life span of human beings, which was really an epoch-making concept.
Ouyang was stunned for three seconds, and then asked, "Does the old man think that in fact, people have not lived to the number of lives they should have?"
"Yes, what does Ouyang think is the reason?"
"It's because man is not an animal or a bird. Man is knowledgeable, but birds and beasts are ignorant. People are toiled by the things of the world, or for ambition, or for livelihood, or for greed, and their emotions and desires disturb their state of mind. This is not the case with birds and animals. ”
"Hmm...... Ouyang's point of view is novel, and there is reason for it. Li Er nodded, finished processing the fish, stood up and stretched his waist, "But if you finish taking Shennongsan, you will know that people can't enjoy their lifespan, in fact, because of 'shackles'." ”
"Shackles?" Ouyang washed the processed fish with river water again, pondering the word shackles.
Isn't it? Could it be a genetic lock? The development of this world is inevitably too weird, isn't it, "Infinite Terror" has come out? His mind couldn't help jumping.
"'Shackles' may be seven emotions and six desires, or they may be congenital deficiencies, everyone's 'shackles' are different, but they are all curbing the world's longevity. ”
Li Er said, and after putting on the bamboo skewers of the fish he caught, he suddenly asked, "I plan to roast and eat this fish directly, what are you going to do?" ”
"I'm going to simmer it in a bamboo tube. Ouyang said, and opened the two bamboo tubes that Chang Sangjun gave him.
Each bamboo tube is divided into two ends, and there is a joint in the middle to divide it into two halves, that is, there are four kinds of spices, namely coarse salt, Sichuan pepper, ginger, and lotus leaves.
The history of the use of seasonings in China has been varied since the pre-Qin period. Whether it is the Book of Songs or the Spring and Autumn Period, there are many references to spices in it.
It can be said that when did the Chinese civilization start, and the spice civilization began to develop.
Ouyang smeared some salt on his fish, shredded the ginger, put it in the belly of the fish with peppercorns, stuffed it into a bamboo tube, and sealed it.
"It's a novelty. Li Er poked his head out and watched Ouyang's movements, "Then put it in the fire and simmer it? It's a bit like the Gu Yue people and the Gu Jing people." ”
"It's pretty much the same, it's really primitive without kitchen utensils. Ouyang nodded, and then asked, "Old man, you haven't finished talking yet." ”
"Speaking of 'shackles', right?" said Li Er, nodding his head, picking up the fish, and walking into the fence,
"The 'shackles' have curbed the world's longevity, but Shennongsan can be discerning and let you know what your own 'shackles' are, and if you break this 'shackles', you can enjoy your lifespan, about one hundred and eighty spring and autumn. ”
"One hundred and eighty years?!, wouldn't that be doubled?" Ouyang picked up his "bamboo tube fish" and followed behind Li Er.
"This is the second prescription, the method of immortality, everyone's prescription is different, so it's hard to say. As he walked, he picked a wild fruit from the side of the road and ate it.
"But that's just the basics. Chang Sangjun has superb medical skills, has the art of forging the body, I feel the heaven and the earth, has the method of breathing, internal and external cultivation, and maintenance of the body, and can get another 50 years of life. ”
"So powerful?!" Ouyang's eyes lit up, "I want to learn this!"
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you, it's not a valuable thing anyway, the people of Shennongjian basically can. Li Er said casually, suddenly stopped, turned back to Ouyang and said,
"But...... You have to first try to ask Chang Sangjun to mix Shennong San for you, Shennong's medicine is not easy to find, some things are used a little less, and there may be only one or two pairs of medicines. Of course, you don't have to worry, his method of immortality needs to grow some special herbs, and your clothes can help him solve a lot of troubles. ”
"Uh-huh. Ouyang chick nodded like a peck of rice.
The two of them chatted casually and came to the central pool.
The central pool is 10 square meters in size, equivalent to half an open-air communal kitchen, and there is a small shed next to it where a lot of dry wood and hay are placed.
There were also some tongues in the shed, and Li Er said that these were some "dry stones" fired by Xue Candle.
Shennongjian is located in a deep forest, and there is a river next to it, and the water vapor is moist, so you need to prepare some "dry stones" to ensure that the firewood is dry.
Ouyang also didn't know what the chemical principle of "dry stone" was, and it was estimated that it should be similar to a desiccant.
Next to the central pool, Chang Sangjun had already taken out a bronze tripod, about the same as a rice cooker, with a lid, and he didn't know what was cooking inside.
Seems to be porridge?
Ouyang seemed to be able to smell the fragrance inside.
Li Er inserted his big fat fish around the bronze tripod, and took out a bamboo tube from his arms, not knowing what he was brushing on.
Ouyang put his "bamboo tube fish" under the bronze tripod and heated it with its fire.
"Is it millet porridge with Nadeshi and Sangan?" asked Li Er with a movement of his beard.
"It's your nose that is the smartest. Chang Sangjun smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's Nadeshiko and Sanggan, the taste is sweet and sour, it must be good." ”
"Can you really eat it? The licorice porridge you said last time made Xue Zhu spit it out directly, have you forgotten? Sun Wu walked over from the side and complained mercilessly.
He is about the same age as Changsangjun, and he has no scruples when he talks.
"Hmph! it will definitely be possible this time!" Chang Sangjun washed a few bowls around him, and shouted to Zhao Zhen next to the sheep shed, "Zhen girl, do you want to eat some too?"
"Okay! I can smell the fragrance from afar~"
....................................
Half an hour later, all the secluded "immortals" in Shennongjian sat around the central pool, and everyone was given a grilled fish, a "bamboo fish", and a bowl of millet porridge.
Tempted by good food, they decided to develop a good habit of eating three meals a day.
Ouyang looked at the yellow millet porridge in his bowl and couldn't help but swallow.
Judging from Sun Wu's words, Chang Sangjun's cooking level is the same as the prescription, and he generally can't eat dead people, but as for whether it tastes good or not, I'm sorry, the doctor never thinks about this aspect of things.
But looking at Zhao Zhen and Li Er's expressions, it shouldn't be able to overturn again, right?
Ouyang took a sip and found that the taste was similar to the sour jujube porridge he had eaten in college before, sweet and sour, and it was really delicious.
It's incredible...... As one of the earliest crops planted in China, the taste of millet porridge is indeed excellent.
Nadeshiko is the rhizome of a plant similar to taro that I ate last night, and dried mulberry is dried from mulberry fruit, and after soaking it to cook porridge, it tastes really good.
"Ouyang boy. ”
Just as Ouyang was eating fish and drinking porridge, Chang Sangjun suddenly called him.
"What's the matter, senior. ”
"How about I exchange Shennongsan for your clothes?"
Ouyang was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"
Although he didn't know why the other party suddenly agreed to this matter, Shennongsan was originally a part of his plan, whether it was apprenticeship or something else, he wanted it.
Chang Sangjun nodded: "Then you wait for me for a few days, and we will change it when Fan Li comes back." ”
"Fan Li, Fan Li is also in Shennongjian?"
"Hmph!" Sun Wu frustrated the porridge bowl in his hand and gently threw it on the bluestone low table, "He is the owner of that empty room." ”
Ouyang looked at Zhao Zhen beside him a little strangely, and found that she was just eating by herself without the slightest abnormality.
Didn't the "Yue Girl" in this world fall in love with this middle-aged doctor in the Yue Kingdom?
But then again, having a close friend of Wu Zixu in Shennong Jian before his death is enough for Fan Li to have a headache, right?
What is he trying to do, he has to stick into the "immortals" pile.
"Changsangjun, although I don't like Fan Li either, but after all, you promised the other party a pair of Shennong San, let Ouyang get it first, I'm afraid, something is wrong, right?" Xue Zhu finished drinking the porridge, put down the bowl and said.
"That demon girl was born with a heart disease, even if she was given Shennong San, she also had Changsangjun's medical skills, and it would be difficult to enjoy her lifespan. Sun Wu said unceremoniously,
What's more, if she gains the ability to see clearly and insight into human nature, it is estimated that she will have to go a little deeper in the effort of bringing disaster to the country and the people. ”
Tsk, that's a bit informative......
The demon girl is definitely not Fan Li, and she is also born with heart disease, it is estimated that she is the legendary four beauties Xi Shi.
Sun Wu's best friend Wu Zixu can be said to have been indirectly killed by Fan Li and Xi Shi, and it is no wonder that he is so angry with these two people.
"Hehehe...... Li Er said with a smile, "Although Sun Wu's words are a bit extreme, they are not unreasonable. Xi Shi can't say that she is a demon girl, but she is definitely not a white lotus, so she has to guard against it. ”
White Lotus?
Ouyang looked at Li Er with some shock.
Old man, you are really avant-garde, there is the word "White Lotus" in this era.
"The words are so good, but the other party is a doctor of the Yue Kingdom, in case he comes directly with troops in anger, then what about this hermitage. Xue Candle said worriedly.
"Xue Candle, you don't know, this Shennong Stream, you might as well guess where you are?" Li Er asked with a smile.
"Isn't it in the country of Wu? Now that the country of Wu is gone, we should all enter Vietnam. Xue Zhu said without thinking.
Li Er nodded: "It's true that it's in the hometown of Wu, but it's not in Yue. ”
He looked at Sun Wu, and Sun Wu continued: "After the fall of the State of Wu, Gou Jian was unable to annex all the land of Wu, and was partially eaten by the King of Chu. Today's Shennongjian belongs to the Chu State. ”
"It turned out to be the State of Chu?!" Xue Candle was stunned for a moment, this news was a little unexpected.
"You don't have to worry too much about this matter, Xue Candle. Although I promised Fan Li to refine Shennongsan for him, I didn't promise to prepare all the herbs for him, which I had already agreed with him. ”
Chang Sangjun explained, "Although the Chishui dragon bone is rare, it is not extinct. In the past few days, I have gone to the mountains to look for it, and most of the time there is still a chance to find it. ”
