Thirty years ago, the State of Shen was still a vassal, and was granted the title of Pingyu. It had a radius of three hundred miles, and its capital was Shenqiu. It was bordered by the State of Cai to the north and the State of Chu to the south. It's just that the disagreement offended the Northern Jin Dynasty, and the Jin State instigated the destruction of the Cai and Chu coalition forces, and the clan's survivors were scattered everywhere.
Mrs. Shen is the descendant of Marquis Shen and a close member of the clan. Speaking of which, Jin Wuhuan is also a high-ranking member.
The visitor's name is Shen Yueniang, she is Shen's cousin and a descendant of Shen's clan. After Shen Yueniang arrived, she first congratulated Jin Wuhuan and his wife. After a long discussion, Jin Wuhuan knocked on Wu Sheng's door.
"My uncle-in-law is here soon, and my wife and I are going to visit..."
Wu Sheng said hurriedly: "That's just right. In fact, I had already planned to say goodbye to my brother..."
Jin Wuhuan said anxiously: "What did Brother Wu say? I didn't mean to drive Brother Wu away. It may take me many days to leave, and I have to trouble my brother to help me take care of the family business here."
Wu Sheng smiled and said: "How big a family property do you have, and you still want me to take care of it? Furthermore, if you don't have any siblings to cook, you let me starve here? This doesn't make sense!"
"this……"
"Brother, you gave up the great world, but I didn't. The sea and the sky are waiting for me to jump on the railing!"
"Brother Wu, I really don't mean that. What I mean is... let's be honest. Is Brother Wu still rich?"
"It's easy to say. I still have two pieces of gold here. You can use them first."
After giving the money, Wu Sheng's hands were empty. He was not reluctant to part with it, but just wanted to see if he could still help: "What's wrong with your uncle-in-law? How much more money will it cost? I'll go down the mountain and think of a solution."
In addition to what he had given before, Jin Wuhuan had overflowing gold on hand. It was basically enough for ordinary illnesses, but if it was a problem of cultivation, it would be a bottomless pit.
"It's either illness or the end of life. My uncle-in-law is one hundred and twelve years old this year, and his life is approaching."
There is a saying that goes, "Seventy-three or eighty-four, the King of Hell will not invite you to go", which refers to the longevity of monks.
In this world, in most cases, those who have not entered the spiritual realm cannot survive the age of seventy-three. Some people have a long life and survive it. The age of eighty-four is another hurdle. These are the two gates of hell that limit the longevity of ordinary people.
But for those who have entered the spiritual practice, passing through these two gates of hell is like walking on plain ground. As long as there are no accidents, life can be easy. The threshold for a monk in the Qi Refining Realm is around one hundred and twenty years old.
Wu Sheng understood as soon as he heard it, but still advised: "If that old man is unfortunate, I would like to express my condolences, but there is something I shouldn't have said... Although Mr. Shen is a noble relative, there is no need for me to embarrass myself and pretend to be fat." , as long as the memorial ceremony is appropriate and the affection is there..."
Jin Wuhuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother Wu, where are you thinking? I won't hide the relationship between you and me as brothers. This money is used to buy medicinal materials."
Wu Sheng asked curiously: "Didn't you say that longevity is over? Buy medicinal materials..." Suddenly he woke up and pointed at Jin Wuhuan: "Brother, what are you saying, do you know how to make alchemy?"
The so-called "alchemy" is of course not a magical elixir for spiritual practice. In Wu Sheng's memory, there was a kind of elixir called "Longevity Pill", which could change one's life and increase one's lifespan.
When ordinary people are about to die, taking a longevity pill can immediately increase their life span by one year. After monks take the longevity pill, the effect is even more domineering, and it can increase their life span by three years!
In the next life, it would be good to live one more day, let alone one year. Many times, those wanderers who have been practicing hard but have never been able to get in, may rely on this extra year to enter the threshold of practice; and those monks who are approaching their longevity, have this extra year In three years, you may be able to pass the barrier and enter the next world of cultivation, and your lifespan will naturally be extended.
What's more, a person can take three pills. Although the effectiveness is greatly reduced, and it is of no use after the fourth pill, it adds up to another one or two years. With so many extra years, even if the situation is hopeless, people can still fulfill certain wishes and leave with peace of mind.
Such a longevity pill can be called one of the most precious elixirs in the world, but there are very few people who have the ability to refine it, and it is basically in the hands of Jixia Academy.
Naturally, this precious elixir has also been listed as a forbidden elixir by Jixia Academy, and monks in the world are not allowed to refine it on their own, because Jixia Academy believes that any longevity elixir refined by oneself is not only ineffective, but also harmful. It even ruined the reputation of Jixia Academy. Only longevity pills applied to the Academy through formal channels are allowed to be taken. Once counterfeit longevity pills are discovered, the severest punishment will be imposed on those who secretly refine the pills.
Wu Sheng also asked casually, but he didn't expect Jin Wuhuan to say, "I know something."
This was amazing. Wu Sheng didn't know how to answer the question for a while and looked at Jin Wuhuan blankly.
Jin Wuhuan whispered: "My teacher is a scholar of heaven, he knows how to do it. Six years ago, my father-in-law, not his uncle-in-law, but also his father-in-law, who was about to live for a long time, asked my teacher for help, and the teacher made a longevity pill for him. He extended his life, but it was a pity that his life was extended but not broken... I am the lady I knew at that time."
Wu Sheng cupped his hands, as if he was re-recognizing Jin Wuhuan: "It's really...the inheritance of your noble family, the abyss is as deep as the sea...The master is the first, I should call you my brother."
Jin Wuhuan smiled bitterly: "Brother Wu, don't be joking. What does my little ability mean? I only talk about refining this elixir. I have only seen it a few times with the teacher. I have a little knowledge and have never tried it."
Wu Sheng said: "That is also a unique skill that is unparalleled in the world. With this skill, anyone in the world can do it."
Suddenly it became clearer and clearer that it was not surprising that Jixia Academy took action against Mu Taoist...
It's just that there is no need to say this. It doesn't look good on my face.
No matter what, Jin Wuhuan was able to tell Wu Sheng such a thing, and he really regarded Wu Sheng as a relative - not to mention the time ten years ago, Wu Sheng saved his life twice in the past six months!
Jin Wuhuan said with shame: "It's just that I have never refined this elixir before, so I can only treat it like a dead horse. I don't know if it will work if I give it a try. If Brother Wu is willing, I would like to ask Brother Wu to help with the details." It's just that Jixia Academy strictly prohibits the refining of longevity pills, for fear of causing more trouble to Brother Wu."
Of course! Why don't you want to?
Especially when I am suffering from a lack of a large number of magic weapons and spiritual materials, with this craft at my side, my future will be bright! Even if you don't sell them, you can secretly refine three of them yourself, and after one course of treatment, you can live three to five years longer. Wouldn't it be wonderful?
"If I could catch a glimpse of the leopard, I would be very happy!" Wu Sheng agreed immediately. As for Jixia Academy, he is wanted, so what are he afraid of? Don’t worry if you have too many lice!
Wu Sheng didn't need to say goodbye now. He followed Jin Wuhuan and his wife, as well as Shen Yueniang who came to invite people, to Pingyu City.
Shen Yueniang is six years younger than Mrs. Shen. She is much more beautiful and youthful. She is the apple of the eye of Shen Fu, the ancestor of the Shen family, and is well-known throughout the world. Wu Sheng has a good impression of her, but unfortunately, Shen Yueniang has no good impression of him.
After meeting, Wu Sheng rolled his eyes at him and led the way. Wu Sheng was immediately stunned.
