Chapter 222 Original Giant Spirit Pill The method of nourishing qi is actually very simple. After Lin Jue told Luo Seng the secret, they set out as usual the next day. In the cold winter, there was some snow on the top of the mountains beside the road, there was thick fog on the ground, and there seemed to be some frost on the official road. The two did not take all the luggage with them, but only took most of the ape hair and thousand-year-old wood, some natural treasures, and a bear skin rug. Lin Jue put the bag on Luo Seng's horse, and he and his junior sister rode a donkey each. After saying goodbye to Luo Gong, they left. Foxes love snow and often jump in the mountains. There are quite a few passers-by in this season, and they are all dressed very warmly. Langfeng County, where Second Senior Brother is located, is at the border of Qinzhou and Zhongzhou. It’s actually not too far from here, only a few hundred miles away. If it weren’t for the previous detour to Qingyan County, it would only take a few days to get there in a straight line. It was freezing cold at the time and the two had not spent all their money, so they planned their route and stayed in hotels as much as possible along the way. After a few days, they arrived in Langfeng County. Relying on their memory and the fox to find the way, the two men rode on donkeys through the vast white land and walked towards the deep mountains. But unexpectedly, there was someone else traveling with me on the road.
He was a man walking with a stick, walking slower than them in the wind and snow. When he saw them coming, he stopped by the roadside and talked to them. "Are you two Taoist priests also visiting Fengshan Temple?" "Oh?" Lin Jue quickly slowed down his pace and answered him, "You too?" "That's right." "You're going to burn incense in this heavy snowstorm?" The junior sister walked beside him holding a sword, also curious. "According to what we say here, we have to go to the temple to worship the gods today." The man said, "There is no other way. Although there are Taoist temples nearby, the Fengshan Temple in front has real gods." "I see." Lin Jue nodded. It seemed that Second Senior Brother’s fame had spread out, and now there would be no peace. Then he paused and asked: "How's the famine here?" "The government has made great efforts to provide disaster relief, so things are getting better. The gods in Fengshan Temple can make a famine relief pill, and people often go to ask for it, so things are getting better." The man said, "But we have to wait until next year. Then again, these days, even if there is no famine, there are people starving to death everywhere." "that's true……" "You two Taoist priests, please go first. I heard that the gods of Fengshan Temple are often not in the temple, so there is no one in the temple. You two Taoist priests, please go and check for me." The man waved at them, not wanting to slow down their pace because of him, "I'll walk slowly." Lin Jue looked up and saw that they were not far away. A corner of the Taoist temple could be vaguely seen in the snowy mountain, so he said: "We are waiting for you at the temple." We walked all the way up the mountain and entered the Taoist temple. The gate of the Taoist temple was wide open, but there was no one inside. Only some incense sticks were placed on the altar in the main hall for people to take at will. However, most of the people's incense sticks were inserted into the incense burner in the courtyard, not on the altar. Lin Jue and his junior sister looked at each other, sniffed, and smelled a faint fragrance of elixir. The fox was not at all unfamiliar. It jumped directly onto the roof of the hall, stood firmly on it, and looked towards the back of the hall. With a swish, it jumped down again.
"House! Fire!" "Um……" Lin Jue understood that it must be his second senior brother who had built an alchemy pavilion on the mountain and was refining elixirs in it. Therefore, he did not disturb him. He and his junior sister found two rooms at random, pushed the door open, put down their bags, and rested. If someone goes up the mountain, they will receive them casually, just like the masters of this Taoist temple. Those pilgrims were all a little strange. It was not until the afternoon that the second brother came out. When he saw his junior brothers and sisters, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. "Why are you back again? Aren't you going to send Junior Sister to the Taoist temple on Fengshan Mountain outside the capital? Where's Third Junior Brother?" "It's a long story. I haven't been to the capital yet. My third brother is missing too. I'll tell him slowly. I came back to spend the New Year with him. I brought him some goodies." Lin Jue said to him, "What kind of elixir are you refining today?" "I refined one batch of cold-repelling pills, and several batches of famine-relief pills." "That's great, Senior Brother. Although you're alone, you've taken good care of yourself and you don't have to worry about hunger or cold." "Ok?" The second brother looked at him carefully. I just felt like I saw the third brother. The junior sister looked at him worriedly. "Don't worry, I make pills all day long. I don't feel cold next to the pill furnace. I make cold-repelling pills just because I'm too lazy to add more clothes. I make famine-relief pills mostly as gifts. I still have food to cook on weekdays." "Oh." The junior sister nodded. "It seems that the spiritual energy that Senior Brother has collected these days has been used to make the Cold-Repelling Pill and the Famine-Relief Pill." Lin Jue said, "But if there are too many of these simple pills, it won't waste Senior Brother's original skills, right?" "Not really." "Look what I brought for you, brother?" Lin Jue took out the bamboo basket and showed it to his second senior brother. The second brother only took a glance and was immediately shocked. "Huh? Ape hair? Thousand-year-old ape wood? Where did you get it from?" "In Qinzhou, not far from Runze County, there is a place called Kuze County, which has been uninhabited for a thousand years. It is full of deep mountains and swamps, filled with miasma, and contains many natural treasures." Lin Jue said, "After senior brother helps the people here survive this disaster, if you want to collect medicinal materials for alchemy, you can go there to look for them." "Kuzhe County..." Second Brother took note of this.
There were no pilgrims in the temple at this time. Lin Jue bought some ingredients on the way and cooked a table of meals. While eating, he told his second senior brother about his and his three experiences after they separated from him. Including the strange encounter in the deserted mountains at night, the disappearance of the third senior brother, going to Qingyan County to ask for instructions from "Niangniang Yaohua", the zombies in Kuze County, the drug-sucking stone and Yangjia Village, as well as the Green Narcissus and the Crocodile King. Naturally, I have to borrow Second Senior Brother’s alchemy furnace to make the elixir. He also needs to ask his second senior brother to help him make the elixir. I asked Second Senior Brother to refine a part to ensure the quality, and Lin Jue also refined a part himself, just as a practice. The rest of the treasures were given to Second Senior Brother for his future use. This year has passed in these deep mountains. It can also be regarded as a way to relieve the loneliness of the second brother. After the beginning of the year, there were several consecutive sunny days and the weather quickly warmed up. When Lin Jue left, he took two bottles of Shenxing Dan, two bottles of Jinguang Dan, and one bottle of Juling Dan. They were not small bottles that could only hold one pill, but large bottles that could hold more than a dozen pills. There was also a jar of Quhan Dan. Those who didn't know might have thought that he came to his senior brother's house to ask for money, but in fact, he prepared almost all the materials himself, and he also helped his senior brother during the refining process. Only the Anti-Cold Pill is pure. But this thing is not precious. Two donkeys and a horse were waiting outside the Taoist temple. The second senior brother came over with a pot-sized alchemy furnace, which he brought from Fuqiu Temple. "I have made a large alchemy furnace. This one is too small and cannot be used. I originally intended to give it to my future apprentices. Since you don't have one, you can use it. Although it is not big, it is easy to carry." "Brother, you are right. I am also your disciple." Lin Jue smiled and took it, and added, "Thank you, Brother." "You want to deal with the Alligator King, do you need my help?" "Brother, you like to make pills in peace, so just study the way of alchemy here and don't worry about other things." Lin Jue patted the pill bottle in the package, "You have already helped me with these." "Ah." The second brother nodded calmly and reminded him, "Your third brother is very capable and smart, so don't worry too much about him." "knew." "You are the same. I was not worried about you, but as long as we cultivators have not achieved true enlightenment, we will always be afraid of two things when we travel around the world: one is sneak attacks, and the other is plots. So you can also find a protector. It doesn't have to be very powerful, as long as he has rich experience in the martial arts world." The second senior brother paused, "When warriors practice martial arts, their strength mostly comes from themselves, while the principles of alchemy are supplemented from the outside. There is no overlap between the two, but they can complement each other. Therefore, if a cultivator finds a protector, they can also achieve mutual success." "talk later." "Be careful." "Brother, this place is not far from the capital. If you learn other skills to travel, come back to visit you often." "Go." The second brother stood at the gate and waved to them. Lin Jue and his junior sister held each other's hands and put all their luggage on Luo Seng's horse. Then the two of them rode on the donkey and swayed down the mountain. Peach blossoms are blooming along the way. There are pilgrims going the other way down the mountain.
Someone asked the two brothers and sisters. "Two Taoist priests, which immortal is in Fengshan Temple today?" "Yes, we need to go faster." Gradually leaving Langfeng County, it took a few more days to return to the thatched cottage outside Runze County. It is already New Year at this time. The peach trees transplanted in the courtyard are also full of peach blossoms. With the spring sunshine, although the temperature is still very low, there is a clear sense of spring. Luo Seng was feeding chickens in the yard. "Mr. Luo." Lin Jue said to him, "Have you mastered the Qi-nourishing Method?" “That should be considered entry level.” "Mr. Luo is truly a genius." Lin Jue said as he took out a giant spirit pill: "This pill is called the Giant Spirit Pill. It is made from thousand-year-old tung wood. It is a very rare pill. After taking it, it can strengthen your body and increase your strength." Luo Seng reached out to take it and smelled it very fragrant. "After taking this pill, you will feel dizzy and want to vomit, and your skin will feel numb within an hour, as if you were bitten by an insect. This is normal, and Luo Gong does not need to worry." Lin Jue said, "What you need to remember is that no matter what Luo Gong does at this time, he will be tireless and have infinite strength. After one day, your whole body will ache, and it will take three to five days at the shortest, and seven to eight days at the longest to recover, and your physical strength will increase after recovery. This day is also crucial, because what Luo Gong did and what parts of his body he used during this day, after recovery, the growth is also related to this." The junior sister was listening nearby, her eyes fixed. No wonder after taking the "little elixir" for the first time, her senior brother dragged her to the mountain to chop wood and run up and down. Luo Seng was not surprised at all, he just nodded and said, "It's the same principle of training and polishing. It was the same when I used medicinal baths when I was young." "That's it." "Thank you." Luo Seng clasped his fists with him. "No need to thank me." Lin Jue said with a smile, "Just think of it as returning the favor of the wooden stick." "Ah." Luo Seng said nothing and did not doubt. He raised his head and swallowed the pill into his stomach. Lin Jueze and his junior sister put down their bags, packed up a little, and sat in the yard to watch him. What happened afterwards was similar to what Lin Jue said. But there are also some differences. According to Luo Seng himself, although he felt a little dizzy, he did not want to vomit. Although his skin was numb, it was not to the extent of "being bitten by insects". Instead, he felt full of energy and seemed to have endless strength.
This may be due to the warrior's strong physique. Maybe this means that he can eat more than three. Then he brandished a sword and a gun in the yard, and as he moved his body agilely, his strong energy became wind, startled the hens and flew away, and the peach blossoms on the tree fell down one after another and then rolled up into a dragon on the ground. Lin Jue discussed it with his junior sister, then took out a giant spirit pill and swallowed it. I even fed one to the fox and the civet cat. Although they had eaten this Giant Spirit Pill before, what they ate at that time was not the original Giant Spirit Pill, but the dregs of the Giant Spirit Pill made by the Taoist friends of Jiulong Temple in Yishan, which was jokingly called the Small Spirit Pill by the second brother. Just like the principle that they ate the pill fruit and the original pill fruit, eating it now can still obtain the extra medicinal effect. Besides, you can actually take more than one pill. Not long after that— The junior sister was dancing with a sword at the back of the yard, while Lin Jue was practicing swordplay on the other side. Sometimes the two of them would compete with each other. The fox and the cat were also chasing and playing with each other, as if they were tireless. One day later, Lin Jue and his junior sister felt sore all over, and even the fox and the cat were unable to get up. On the contrary, Luo Seng felt okay. According to him, it was just like a fight with someone. (End of this chapter)
