"Are all the people in your village able to maintain their eternal youth like you?"
"Or are you saying that everyone in your village can live forever?"
One of these two sentences was asked by Li Dabao, and the other was asked by Gu Zangfeng.
In response, Xiao Hua said: "Of course not. The elixir has serious side effects and not everyone can take it."
"What's more, what I took is not a real elixir. When our ancestors were building the tomb, they took out some elixirs from the Taoist Palace."
"No one dared to eat it at first, but then the older people ate it, and finally they all exploded and died."
"I think some attempts were made later, and some people were able to resist, so it became what it is now."
"The best age to take medicine is between nine and fifteen years old. The side effects are minimal at this stage. If you are an adult, although the medicine will be very effective, the side effects will also be very high."
"The mildest side effect may be the state of soul-leaving syndrome, and some need to stay in a place full of yin energy all year round. This is not a land of gods."
"What's even more distressing is that it's not that we don't want to leave here, it's just that as long as we leave here, the side effects will break out in a very short period of time."
"The mild ones are full of black gas, and there are also white smoke. Those are medicinal gases."
"From the outside, they look like ghosts, but in fact only you know the real pain."
"It's a feeling of not being like this, and it doesn't last. When all the energy in the body dissipates, the whole person will instantly return to the age he should be, and finally all the blood in the bloodline will turn white. Like mercury.”
Xiaohua's words have almost solved the mystery that I have not solved for many years.
It's just that in many cases, I can't seem to match this timeline.
After all, it is the ancient tombs of the Warring States Period and the ghost corpses.
Or was it the Shennongjia Immortal Taoist Palace that existed first?
Which one of the two comes first and which one comes last is actually quite important.
And I even have a little doubt that Leng Yue and the mysterious young man from the Changsha Gang can live forever by taking this so-called elixir?
Even if the side effects are severe, the secret here should not be kept until now.
There must be other problems here.
After all, there are so many people who fantasize about immortality. Even if they can only maintain their immortal appearance for a period of time and spend the rest of their lives in exchange, I think there will be a lot of people coming here to look for them.
Regarding this, I think many people have the same idea as me.
But Xiaohua is not very clear about these.
In his words, there may be people who have broken in during the past few decades, but they may not have been discovered.
As for why they are looking for me, it is entirely because of Leng Yue's existence.
Xiaohua said that Leng Yue first appeared because an older clan leader in their village knew her.
Moreover, the two of them were friends of the same generation, and as far as Xiaohua knew, the patriarch was at least one hundred and fifty years old.
Because even Xiaohua's grandfather is dead, but the clan leader is not dead yet, although he looks very old.
Xiaohua is not very clear about the situation at that time.
But knowing that Miss Leng followed an old man with glasses and a group of people to the village.
It's unclear what they talked about with the patriarch.
All they knew was that they were going to the Palace of Immortality.
In the end, the clan leader took Leng Yue and the others along.
It's just that the clan leader died inside, and more than half of their group were also killed or injured. The old man with glasses looked very lonely.
As for Miss Leng, she disappeared because she was with the clan leader in the end.
Then the old man with glasses left with the remaining people.
It didn't appear again until recently.
Leng Yue came out once before they appeared, but that time her whole body had broken bones and tendons, and she was carried out by people in the village.
And the Qingling Sword behind me was actually given away by someone from the village.
Finally, after several twists and turns, it finally fell into my hands.
Xiaohua said: "The first thing the sister said when she woke up was to ask me to find a man named Chen Xu and to give the things away."
As she said that, Xiaohua pointed to the sword box on my back.
Although you put it in a box, I can feel the breath on it.
Add your name so we can contact you.
I asked: "Then, did that cold girl tell you what they encountered inside?"
Xiaohua shook her head and said, "No, just told me that the clan leader is dead and ordered all clan members not to go near that place."
"He also said that only by finding you can all the troubles be solved and the curse on us can be completely lifted."
Did I say yes?
"What did you say?"
"curse?"
Xiaohua hummed and said, "Yes, in fact, the elixir is a kind of barbaric technique. Some people who take the medicine will develop strange scars on their bodies, like corpse spots."
"Most of the patterns are black birds, and some are phoenix totems. I saw Miss Leng has one on her body."
"I originally had it, but as I grew older, I didn't have it for some reason."
When Xiaohua said these things, I seemed to understand something clearly in my mind.
All this seems to be the fault of that Taoist priest in Qingyi.
But why did Leng Yue say in the first place that the phoenix totem on my body was different from hers?
Is it because she has taken the elixir?
And I haven’t eaten it?
Is that the difference?
If so, is it a little too simple every now and then?
I couldn't figure it out and wanted to continue questioning Xiaohua.
But before I asked, Gu Zangfeng asked first.
"Well, Xiaohua, can you tell me what happened to those black snakes?"
"And those people who speak foreign languages?"
"Also, have you ever met any of our people?"
"that is……"
As he spoke, Gu Zangfeng compared Uncle Yan's appearance.
After hearing this, Xiaohua nodded first, then shook her head and said, "I have seen the big man you mentioned, but I saw him from a distance, not face to face."
"As for the Uncle Yan you are talking about, I don't know. He may have already entered the village."
"As for those black snakes, Chen Xu is actually right. They don't listen to me, but want to eat me."
"I have taken the elixir, and my body has a unique medicinal fragrance. You will definitely not be able to smell these medicinal fragrances, but you can detect many foreign objects growing here."
Li Dabao laughed and said: "So, you are now the same as Tang Monk's meat. Whoever eats you will become immortal?"
Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "It's because most of the people in our village have taken this pill, so the population will become smaller and smaller. Later, the pill disappeared, and even if it existed, no one would take it. ."
"At least there won't be so many dangers and so much pain. It's not a problem to live peacefully to seventy or eighty years old, or even a hundred years old."
"This place is located in a strange place. Due to years of alchemy refining in the Immortal Dao Palace, all the heavenly materials and earthly treasures have seeped into the depths of the earth's veins, making this place full of aura."
"Many animals or beasts that look very normal outside will become very smart here, and even become very large."
"Even if no one occupies our stronghold, if it continues to develop at this level, our stronghold will not be able to resist those beasts that have become spirits."
"In addition, we can't leave Shennongjia too far, otherwise we will die..."
"So when Miss Leng told me about that, many young people in the village went out in different directions to look for you. I happened to meet you, but you came much later than we expected."
…
"As for the people you mentioned who spoke foreign languages, they were actually the back-up of the people occupying the village. They had differences with the man who called himself Mr. Big, and the two groups started fighting."
"In the end, the man withdrew from the stronghold, and came back a few days later, and killed many of Mr. Da's people. They were a very powerful group."
"How many waves of people are there in the village now?"
Xiaohua thought for a while and said: "I haven't gone back for a long time, but when I came out, there were only two waves of them confronting each other in the village...!"
