Chapter 44: Pills

044 Pill

"Master, I feel a little dizzy"

Soon noticing the subtle changes, after exchanging glances with Xiang Jiannan for a few seconds, Li Jinshan became a little unsteady.

The young Taoist priest recited the scriptures faster and faster. Under his gaze, he suddenly recalled some past events.

The Li family has been operating in Pingshun Town for four generations. Until today, not everything has been done so gloriously. Why did I suddenly think of these things in front of the two Taoist priests?

"Help Mr. Li sit down quickly."

Gao Yuan just watched the changes in Xiang Jiannan without much reaction. When Li Jinshan was about to collapse, he raised his hand and took a wooden chair from the side.

Everything will come naturally.

The disciple's progress is visible. Some time ago, he was still a little Taoist priest who could not remember the scriptures. Now, he can recite long passages. In front of Mr. Li and others, he really made himself proud, although the timing of his words was a bit abrupt.

I guess he has been secretly working behind my back all this time, and he was able to remember it in such a short time.

"Go and pour Mr. Li a cup of tea."

When several warriors helped Li Jinshan to sit down, Gao Yuan beside him immediately said, raising his hand to hold Li Jinshan's pulse. At that moment, the old Chinese doctor came online, twisting a few strands of his beard, and quietly judged:

"The pulse is disordered, the master's health is not good."

I just felt a little nervous when the young Taoist priest looked at me. Hearing Gao Yuan say that he was not capable of doing it, Mr. Li was immediately unhappy. He sat on the wooden chair to express his dissatisfaction and opened his mouth to refute. As a man, he hated it most when others said that he was not capable of doing it. Our Li family has such good conditions, how could we not be able to do it.

He is served with delicacies from land and sea every day and is in great health.

"The old Taoist priest said too much."

"Don't be alarmed, I will leave everything to you."

Gao Yuan made an expression that said "I understand everything" to Mr. Li and interrupted what he was about to say. Then he quickly walked to the bedside and came back holding a small wooden box.

The box was very finely crafted, with a dull-colored bead inlaid on it. There were patterns spreading out from the bead, and the interlaced circles were very beautiful. After opening it, there were two bright red pills inside, which made Xiang Jiannan drool.

It's mouth-watering, the color really whets my appetite. It's right in the bedside drawer. It's the first time I've seen something like this.

Is this the elixir that Taoists are talking about? There are quite a lot of good things in the master's room. It's time to investigate when I have the chance.

At this time, Xiang Jiannan had calmed down from the excitement of reciting scriptures. His eyes were fixed on the wooden box. He felt that the two pills inside could quench his thirst. After reciting the scriptures, his throat was now dry and unbearable. The red color seemed to have aroused some kind of desire in his heart. He could not help himself just by looking at it.

How could he even think of pouring tea for Mr. Li?

Xiang Jiannan was able to hear what Gao Yuan had just said, but he was immersed in the scriptures at that time and was slow to react to everything around him.

After Mr. Li started talking, a large amount of text suddenly appeared in his mind. The entire content of the Thirty-Six Postures of the Beautiful Woman appeared clearly in his memory line by line. The scriptures that he had read before were also remembered bit by bit in fragments.

It felt like something was blocking my chest and I would not feel comfortable unless I spoke it out for the time being.

As for why Mr. Li became like this, Xiang Jiannan didn't think that it was related to his eyes. After stopping chanting, he also thought that he was weak.

He used to brag about having so many women, but now, he shouldn’t show off anymore.

"Mr. Li, please look."

Seeing that no one said anything after he took out the pill, Gao Yuan had to introduce it first. The fact that no one asked meant that everyone was shocked. This effect was not unacceptable. Looking at Li Yuanwai's eyes, he found that the pill had never left the small box for a moment, and the same was true for the warriors around him.

"Old Taoist priest, what is this?"

Li Jinshan felt the same as Xiang Jiannan. He was a little thirsty now. He swallowed hard a few times and then wanted to reach out to take it.

He had heard that Taoist priests could refine pills, but this was the first time he saw the finished product. The two red pills seemed to capture his heart, and for a moment he just wanted to take them for himself. He looked at them a few more times and immediately could not hold back.

"This thing is called Qingxin Pills, it has the effect of strengthening the body. If Mr. Li takes it, the effect is self-evident."

Holding the wooden box and speaking a few words, Xiang Jiannan saw that the master's eyes were becoming more and more obscene. Qingxin Pills, why does it feel wrong? It's a very upright name, why did he use that tone when introducing it? .I understand.

"real?"

Li Jinshan was more and more moved by Gao Yu'an's words. He immediately stood up and took the wooden box in his hands, as if he was holding a token of trust.

"Logically, Li doesn't need it, but the old Taoist priest suddenly took out this treasure, there must be a reason that you can't explain."

After saying that, he gave Gao Yuan a similar look, indicating that he understood everything. The two of them stared at the pills in the wooden box and immediately burst into hearty laughter.

All is said without words.

This is going to bring disgrace to Ping An Temple. When Gao and Li were smiling in mutual understanding, Xiang Jiannan found that the warriors' expressions were becoming more and more contemptuous. We were all men, and who couldn't understand the conversation between the master and Mr. Li? Even a pure little Taoist like me could hear the clues, not to mention those warriors who were in their prime.

Master, could you please pay attention to the occasion? You can't sell medicine at this time.

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)

"In that case, Li will accept it."

Lehehe put the wooden box in his arms and thanked Li Jinshan:

"Master, you have saved Jinshan from danger many times. I really don't know how to thank you. So, I will give you 100 taels as the cost of repairing the Taoist temple."

"No, Mr. Li, benefiting the common people is the responsibility of us cultivators."

He said this with great righteousness. After hearing Li Jinshan say that he would donate one hundred taels to Ping'an Temple, Gao Yu'an's attitude was a little unhappy. Although he showed a sad expression that showed he was concerned about the masses, Xiang Jiannan and the warriors looked down on him even more.

Only Mr. Li is willing to play with you, an old Taoist priest. If it were me, I would have agreed without hesitation and would not even mention it.

"Then eighty taels!"

"Mr. Li, please don't mention it again."

"So what does the old Taoist priest mean?"

"Sixty-nine taels. Six is ​​the most negative number, and nine is the most positive number. We in the Taoist sect pay attention to the meaning of everything. Take one pill every three hours. Avoid greasy meat and... Mr. Master, you understand."

"Thank you for your guidance, old Taoist priest!"

"Master, how many things are you hiding from me?"

Without even having the vegetarian meal, and after chatting for a while with the wooden box in his pocket, Li Jinshan left contentedly with several servants. It was not until Mr. Li's carriage completely disappeared from sight that Xiang Jiannan found a suitable opportunity to ask Gao Yu'an.

As a master and disciple, shouldn't we be open and honest? It's only been a few days, and you can already produce an elixir, Qingxin Pill? It looks quite real. If the master can really make elixirs, I must learn it anyway.

Pills are the easiest way to make people change quickly. Although the gossip has not been figured out yet, Xiang Jiannan believes that the two are not contradictory. No matter how good the plug-in is, it must have a good carrier, right? Tempering the body and strengthening the body are all things that pills can do.

As for some other functions, don’t think about them for now. There is nothing about them yet, and I don’t know whether the master will admit it honestly.

"Why do you ask this, disciple?"

Gao Yuan felt a great sense of accomplishment after getting the sixty-nine taels of silver. He hurried back to the backyard to look after the silver. He didn't pay much attention to Xiang Jiannan's questions. He walked to the clay statue of his master, staggered, and was supported by a pilgrim before looking back.

The disciple Xiang Jiannan was squatting on the ground, muttering to himself, pointing his finger at the ground, and seemed to be drawing a circle while muttering.
