Professor Li pulled a magnifying glass out of his bag and looked more closely.
Gradually, his face became more and more excited, and he slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, I study biology and seed cultivation. I am sure this is the Tai Sui, also known as the Ganoderma lucidum. The legendary elixir of life is this. As early as more than 4,000 years ago, the ancients discovered its usefulness. It is recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and some medical books."
"This thing is rare. I've only seen some smaller ones before. This is the first time I've seen one as big as yours. I'm afraid it must have grown for hundreds or thousands of years. No, I have to get some samples to study."
Old Mrs. Shen heard their conversation in the house. It turned out that the big thing was really the Ganoderma lucidum!
She quickly ran out of the house and said, "Professor Li, is what you said true? Is this thing really Tai Sui? I have never heard of what you said. I have only heard that you should not touch the ground under Tai Sui's head. But my grandchildren dug it up that day. I didn't know what it was, so I let them leave it there. If I had known it was Tai Sui, I would not have dared to take it back. It is too unlucky."
Professor Li was a scholar. He did not believe in these things. He only believed in science. He patiently explained, "Don't worry, old lady. These are all nonsense. This Tai Sui is not the same as the Tai Sui you mentioned. In ancient times, people matched the stars in the sky with the directions on the ground. One of the stars was called Tai Sui."
"This star, Tai Sui, rotates once every twelve years. The position it corresponds to cannot be moved randomly. That's why it's said that you can't move the earth above Tai Sui's head. This is ancient superstition and has nothing to do with our Tai Sui. You don't have to be afraid of bad luck. Bringing Tai Sui home is not only not a bad thing, but a great thing!"
"Great news, really?" Old Mrs. Shen was a little surprised.
"Of course, this Tai Sui is a good thing. It has been recorded since ancient times that if you eat it piece by piece, it will grow bigger. As long as you don't eat it all at once, it will continue to grow forever. It is for this reason that people in ancient times regarded it as an elixir of immortality. As for whether its effect is as powerful as the legend says, I will know after I take it back and study it."
These words immediately dispelled Mrs. Shen's worries. Professor Li was not superstitious, but she was different. She was superstitious.
She saw with her own eyes how effective Fubao's words were. If it weren't for the help of the gods, how could she have said such effective words?
So she always felt that her granddaughter was a lucky star and that there were gods in this world.
Since even gods have it, maybe this elixir of life is real?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen finally became nervous. These days she had been using the Tai Sui water to water the flowers and feed the chickens and ducks at home.
Not only did it keep the dying flowers and plants alive, it also made the chickens and ducks fat and strong. The chickens and ducks laid more eggs than before, and the eggs tasted better.
She was puzzled at first, but now she realized that these changes were caused by Tai Sui.
This Tai Sui is incredible, it is definitely a good thing like a magic medicine. We cannot let Professor Li take Tai Sui away, and no one else can either.
