Li Ruchu smiled and said.
“When Gao Bang donated Chinese herbal medicines, my father praised him as a righteous man.”
“My father said at the time that if he were also a pharmaceutical merchant, he would definitely do the same thing.”
“Now, something similar has happened on the land of the Great Yuan. I believe that Father will make what he believes is the right choice at this time!”
Ye Xiaochuan nodded.
"That's good, it will help alleviate the current famine."
Ye Qianqian thought for a moment.
Opening granaries and distributing grain can indeed help the people, but it's not a long-term solution!
Most importantly, we need heavy rain as soon as possible so that the crops can grow quickly!
Otherwise, this famine will continue, and it will likely become even more difficult this winter.
There won't be any surplus grain to release by then.
But how can we make the sky rain as soon as possible?
I once learned rainmaking magic, but my current magical power is simply insufficient. I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do something as significant as summoning rain properly.
[Laojun, Laojun, you are still my master, and now your disciple needs you most. Why are you still unwilling to sacrifice yourself? Do you think that losing my previous eight lives is a disgrace to you? That it will make it impossible for you to remain in the divine realm?]
【Oh dear, who doesn't have a few troublesome disciples? Even those with higher magical power than you have been betrayed by their disciples before, haven't they?】
Ye Qianqian complained inwardly.
Laozi still hasn't appeared.
Ye Qianqian had a dream after falling asleep that night.
He dreamt that Laozi came to find him.
Ye Qianqian looked aggrieved when she saw Lao Jun.
"Why did it take you so long to appear?"
"A day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth."
"In the end, it's just that we haven't appeared in front of you for three days."
"So, now that you understand this principle, you should know how anxious I am waiting for you in the mortal world! Then you should come to me sooner!"
"Master, I have been cultivating for so long now, why haven't my immortal techniques been restored?"
"Is it because I lost my previous eight lives that my magic power is gone?"
"That's not the main reason! Don't forget, you came to the human world to undergo tribulation!"
"Only by accumulating more merit for yourself can your immortal arts gradually recover! Many of the things you did before have accumulated a lot of merit for you, and this time you built a house to treat tuberculosis, curing many sick people in the world!"
"This is a great achievement, and naturally your magic will be restored."
"Does that mean I'll soon be a fairy with maxed-out magical powers?"
"That's not necessarily true! Unless you take the pill that your master prepared for you!"
As Lao Jun spoke, he took out a red pill.
"Isn't this the Divine Elixir that Master refined before? The elixir can restore a deity who has lost all magic to their maximum level! No way, Master, you're being so generous to me. This elixir takes 1000 years to refine, why are you willing to give it to me?"
"You wouldn't happen to have some ulterior motive, would you?"
Lao Jun picked up the whisk in his hand.
He tapped Ye Qianqian on the head.
"What are you thinking? Do you have some ulterior motive that I could possibly want? Do I want your stupidity or your status as a lowly immortal?"
Ye Qianqian touched her head.
"Master, please stop hitting me! I'm not very smart to begin with, and you'll only make me seem dumber!"
"If you hadn't foolishly and obediently tended the boiler in front of my alchemy furnace for 100 years, I wouldn't have given you this elixir. You are currently the only one who can endure 100 years of monotonous boiler-tending work. Many other little immortal children couldn't stand it and jumped ship to other immortal palaces!"
"That's what you call loving what you do! Besides, even if I wanted to switch jobs, other immortals wouldn't accept me because my comprehension is just too low! If I had such high comprehension as the Victorious Fighting Buddha, I wouldn't have been stuck as a nobody for so many years."
"Only you, Master, don't mind that I'm a big idiot."
Lao Jun sighed.
"Don't belittle yourself so much, you're not that bad!"
"Alright, eat the elixir now."
"Thank you, Master."
Ye Qianqian swallowed the elixir as she spoke.
"How are you feeling now?" Laozi asked.
"I need to fart and poop, Laozi, are you sure what you gave me is an elixir and not a laxative?"
"That's right! Farting and pooping are normal reactions. They're ways to expel the turbid air from your body. Once your immortal root is activated, your magic will naturally return."
Ye Qianqian nodded.
"Oh, I understand. Well then, take care, Lao Jun."
"You're kicking me out like this? That's so rude of you! At least say thank you, Lao Jun."
"The main problem is that I'm about to fart, and I can't let you smell it, Laozi, can I?"
Lao Jun was speechless.
"Then I'll be going now. If you need anything in the future, just summon me using magic."
"Yes, thank you, Laozi!"
Lao Jun immediately followed.
Ye Qianqian immediately opened her eyes.
He suddenly sat up.
Consort Jin was still asleep beside her.
Ye Qianqian stood up.
