Cai Chenzi only helped Tian Xiaoding refine one Yang-returning pill, for which Cai Chenzi expressed very guilt. But Xiao Ding was overjoyed.
Xiao Ding originally thought that after Cai Chenzi spent a month refining the elixir, he might have exhausted the elixir long ago, but he never expected that he actually made a Yang-returning elixir.
This was definitely an unexpected surprise.
Therefore, Xiao Ding did not complain about Cai Chenzi, but was very grateful to Cai Chenzi.
This is because Xiao Ding knows very well: This Yang-Returning Pill is a heaven-defying thing, and it is not so easy to successfully refine it.
According to the rules of the human world, human beings must go through the process of birth, old age, illness, and death. Anyone who violates this rule is considered an act against heaven and will be punished by heaven.
Therefore, human cultivation and the intention of immortality are also acts against heaven. Therefore, every time they advance to a major realm, they need to survive a thunder tribulation.
And resurrecting the dead is also against the laws of the human world. Therefore, Huanyang Pill, an important elixir used to resurrect the dead, cannot be successfully refined casually.
According to Cai Chenzi, this Yang-Returning Pill generally exists in the immortal world and the divine world. In the human world, such unnatural things are usually not allowed.
Therefore, Xiao Ding was already satisfied that Cai Chenzi could refine a Yang-Returning Pill.
After all, this is a super high-level elixir. If it were anyone else, it would definitely be difficult to refine even one.
Xiao Ding firmly believes that apart from Cai Chenzi, only Cai Chenzi's master Chang Lingzhenren can refine the Yang Huan Dan with confidence. But the Changling Master has just been in seclusion for about twenty years. If you want to wait until he comes out of seclusion, you will have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
Tian Xiaoding got a Yang-Returning Pill, and that night, he couldn't wait to take Ouyang Qing and Ah Li into the Qiankun Pot.
Now that he has a Yang-Returning Pill, Xiao Ding plans to resurrect Erniu according to the method taught to him by Master Chang Ling.
Erniu's surname is Zhang. Because she was born in a poor mountain valley and her parents had little education, they gave her the rustic name Erniu.
Due to poverty at home, Erniu was malnourished since she was a child and grew thin and small. When she was thirteen years old, she still looked like a child and was as thin as a bamboo pole.
At that time, the stepmother her father married gave birth to a boy, so her father and stepmother looked down upon Erniu even more. Then Erniu was married to Tian Fool of the Tian family. She exchanged her life's happiness for a few hundred pennies to go back.
Fool Tian from the Tian family is not very smart. Although he married Er Niu, he doesn't understand anything and has never consummated his marriage with Er Niu. As a result, within a few months, Fool Tian was bitten to death by a wolf in the mountains while he was digging wild vegetables in the mountains. At this time, Tian Xiaoding, who came from the modern society of the earth, accidentally jumped into a time tunnel and happened to travel to the Song Dynasty where Fool Tian lived.
Because Tian Xiaoding looked very similar to Fool Tian, and when he had just traveled through time, he was next to Fool Tian's body. Since he had no clothes on him, he wore the clothes of Fool Tian, and was mistakenly identified as him by the Tian family. What a fool.
Tian Xiaoding had lost his memory at the time, so he acted confused and seemed a little stupid. Because he had no way of knowing his life experience at the time, he acquiesced in Tian Fool's identity.
Later, he recovered his memory and knew that he had replaced Tian Fool's identity, so he told the truth to Zhang Erniu, who had become his wife. However, Erniu at that time had already fallen in love with Xiao Ding, her husband. She doesn't care if Xiao Ding is a fool, she likes Xiao Ding anyway.
Later, Xiao Ding's wife Ouyang Qing also came to the Song Dynasty through the time and space tunnel and met Xiao Ding. Xiaoding faced two wives at the same time, feeling extremely painful inside.
One is the love before time travel, and the other is the first wife after time travel. No matter which one you choose, it will hurt the other one. Therefore, at that time, Xiao Ding's biggest headache was how to decide.
However, things are unpredictable. Erniu ran away in anger because of some of Ouyang Qing's words, and was killed by the bad guys. Xiao Ding felt extremely regretful. So he put Erniu's body into the jade pendant space according to Erniu's wish during his lifetime, and stayed with Xiaoding anytime and anywhere. At the same time, he also took Erniu's soul into his Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda and placed it on the floor of the Soul Cultivation Hall for nourishment.
Xiao Ding's Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, also known as the Soul Gathering Tower, can collect the souls of humans or animals. The soul can be nourished, the soul can be refined, and the soul can be restored.
After Xiao Ding and the other two entered the world of Qiankun Pot, Xiao Ding flew to the top of the snow peak.
It was summer in the world inside the pot, and the weather down the mountain was hot. Xiao Ding was worried that Erniu's body would rot if left in the hot environment.
If the body is already rotten, how can we talk about resurrection?
Xiao Ding has kept Er Niu's body well preserved over the years.
When Erniu died, Xiao Ding used ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck flat wood to build a coffin for her.
The flat wood had been struck by lightning for thousands of years and had already been carbonized. Due to the passage of time, the carbonized wood had already turned into jade. Its surface is as smooth as jade, insect-proof and anti-corrosion, and it also exudes the fragrance of peach wood.
Normally, the coffin would be placed in Xiao Ding's jade pendant space. Time in the jade pendant space stands still. Everything looks the same when it is put in, and it still looks the same when it is taken out.
Only during the New Year every year, either before or after the New Year, Xiao Ding would take out Erniu's body from the jade pendant space and worship her. However, it was winter at that time and the weather was cold. Even if the body was taken out of the jade pendant space, it would not rot.
Xiao Ding was on top of the snow peak, taking out the coffin from the jade pendant space. Gently push open the coffin lid.
Er Niu's pale face appeared in front of her eyes again. Her eyes were closed tightly, her appearance was the same as before.
There was a bloody hole on Erniu's forehead and between her chest, which was the wound left by the traitor's poisonous dart when she was hit.
Erniu's death took away too much regret and reluctance from Xiaoding. In fact, this is the saddest thing in the world. Not the moment lost, but every moment remembered in the future. Erniu is undoubtedly the weakest place in Xiao Ding's heart. Every time she touches her, it will hurt him.
Xiaoding bent down and reached into the coffin, gently picking up Erniu's stiff body. After taking Er Niu into his arms, he closed the coffin lid back to its original position, and then placed Er Niu on the coffin lid.
He took out the orange Huanyang Pill and placed it in his palm. Looking at the egg-sized pill, Xiao Ding frowned. Looking at Er Niu's tightly pursed mouth, she thought to herself, how could she swallow such a big pill?
So, Xiao Ding had no choice but to break open the pill, break off a small piece, and then reach out to pry Erniu's mouth.
However, the dead person's body had long been stiff. Erniu's mouth was tightly closed. How could it be opened easily?
After a lot of effort, Xiao Ding finally opened a gap in Er Niu's mouth. Then he quickly stuffed a small piece of elixir in his hand into Erniu's mouth.
But a dead person's mouth cannot chew, has no saliva, and cannot swallow. The pill was placed in Erniu's mouth and stayed in her mouth without any change.
When Xiao Ding saw it, he thought that this wouldn't work either. He had to find a way to get the elixir into Er Niu's stomach.
So, he had no choice but to use his skills and activate his spiritual power to wrap up the small piece of elixir, and help her put the elixir into her stomach along Erniu's throat.
However, Erniu's stomach was already empty. Without gastric juice, she naturally could not digest the pill.
However, Xiao Ding didn't care about it for the time being. Instead, he divided the remaining pills into small pieces, and then used his spiritual power to help put them into Er Niu's stomach.
Next, proceed to the second step, pushing the work and exchanging blood.
The blood in Erniu's body has long been drained. Even if it is not completely drained, there is very little blood left. Moreover, when the body loses its vitality, the blood will naturally dry up.
Therefore, Xiao Ding's next step is to perform exercises on Er Niu and exchange blood, and at the same time, he also needs to remove the blood clots that have already coagulated in her body.
Xiao Ding took out the dagger and made a bloody gash on each palm. Then he pressed one hand on the wound on Erniu's forehead and the other hand on the wound on Erniu's chest. Then through the spiritual power in the body, the blood in his own body is transported to Erniu's body. At the same time, he also used his spiritual power to remove the blood clots from Erniu's body.
Xiao Ding, who comes from the earth in the future, of course knows that human blood is divided into blood types. Naturally, he had no way of knowing what Erniu's blood type was.
However, this no longer matters. Because even if there is still blood in Erniu's body, it is still a clot that has solidified and cannot be used anymore.
Therefore, there is no question of whether the blood types are compatible. Xiao Ding will use his own blood to inject blood into Er Niu's body. In this way, all the blood flowing in Er Niu's body will be the blood in Xiao Ding's body.
When Xiao Ding felt a little dizzy, he stopped the blood transfusion.
Because he knew that the amount of blood he had output at this time had reached the maximum amount. If he continued to lose blood, his life would be in danger.
However, the maximum amount of blood a person can lose is 20%. Such a small amount of blood is naturally not enough for the normal needs of the organs in Erniu's body.
Even so, Xiao Ding never thought of using a second person's blood to inject Er Niu's blood. After all, if you only use your own blood, there will be no blood type mismatch problem. If another person's blood is added, it will be difficult to say.
After stopping the blood transfusion, Xiao Ding immediately bandaged the two wounds on Erniu's head and chest to prevent the blood that had just been transfused from flowing out and wasting again.
Then, he began to transfer his energy into Erniu's body to help her refine the elixir in her stomach.
However, Erniu's body functions were still in a deep sleep at this time. Even though Xiao Ding had used his energy to refine the elixirs in her stomach into liquid, her body was still unable to absorb the power of these elixirs.
After pushing the energy and exchanging blood, Xiaoding started the third step, resurrecting the soul.
Erniu's soul was taken into the Soul Nourishing Hall of the Soul Gathering Tower by Xiao Ding. For so many years, this soul has been nourished in the Soul Nourishing Palace.
Xiaoding took out the Soul Gathering Tower and aimed the bottom of the tower at Erniu's head. Then he muttered something. The techniques he recited were all the techniques of resurrecting souls that he learned from Ling Yunzi, the old Taoist of Qingyun Temple, when he was in the Great Song Dynasty on Earth.
At the same time, his spiritual thoughts had entered the Soul Gathering Tower and activated the spiritual power in his body to drive away the soul of Erniu who was cultivating in the Soul Raising Hall, allowing her to leave the Soul Raising Hall and enter Erniu's body.
However, the soul seemed to know that Erniu's body had no vitality, and she was not willing to go back at all.
Xiao Ding had no choice but to increase his spiritual power, block all escape routes for Erniu's soul, and force her to enter Erniu's body.
Erniu's soul was forced to have no choice but to show a pitiful and aggrieved look, as if she had been bullied. In the end, Xiao Ding was forced into Er Niu's body.
Even though the soul returned to the body, Erniu was still lifeless. All the organs in her body had stopped functioning long ago. Even if her soul returns, it will not allow her body to resume work.
Xiaoding took out a soul-calming charm and put it on Erniu's head to prevent her soul from leaving her body again. Then put away the Soul Gathering Tower.
Next, he will proceed to the fourth step to stimulate vitality.
Since all the organs in Erniu's body are shut down, Xiao Ding can only use exercises to forcibly stimulate them and make all the organs in Erniu's body run.
However, this is no easy task. If cardiopulmonary resuscitation is performed on a person who has just faked death, it can still be effective. Erniu has been dead for such a long time. It is not that simple to restore the normal functions of various organs in her body.
What Xiaoding took the lead in exercising was Erniu's heart. Only when the heart beats normally can the blood in her body flow. With the nourishment of the blood, other organs can quickly wake up.
Although this is true in theory, in actual operation, it is another matter.
Xiao Ding tried his best and struggled for a whole day, but he couldn't get Er Niu's heart to beat. In the end, he struggled until he felt dizzy, and then he gave up.
He knew that he had lost too much blood and consumed too much energy today.
He had no choice but to put Erniu on the snowy peak for the time being, and then go down the mountain to rest.
After this day's torment, although Erniu showed no signs of resurrection, her face was no longer as pale as before because of the blood transfused by Xiao Ding in her body.
Some people died, but not completely...
