Chapter 604: Nine-leaf Ginseng King, Eating It Becomes Immortal

The morning light is dim and purple air is coming from the east.
At dawn, Li Daoxuan had already started practicing in the courtyard. He was not sitting cross-legged in meditation, but painting.
With his current level of cultivation, everything he does, whether walking, sitting or lying down, is a form of cultivation. Every move he makes is in line with the Way of Heaven. He is no longer bound by formalities and can be said to be practicing all the time.
His "Huangting Ancient Scripture" is about to break through to the fourth level.
This cannot be achieved without the stimulation of the great magical power of mediating nature.
Although he had just started, he was already deeply inspired, as if he had cleared away layers of fog and seen more of the truth of the world.
The Taoist classics he had read during the three years of keeping vigil reflected in his mind, and many of the things he had been puzzled about suddenly became clear to him.
The sea embraces all rivers, and the furnace nourishes all classics.
This great magical power to mediate the destiny of nature is equivalent to adding fuel to the fire in his heart.
Li Daoxuan painted quietly with his brush moving like a dragon. As soon as he put pen to paper, there was a rosy glow. The energy of earth, water, wind and fire lingered at the tip of his brush, attracting purple air from the east, which spread in all directions.
Fortunately, he had cast a spell and set up a formation in advance to conceal the situation here, otherwise the bad guys in Longzhou would have been alerted.
This time, Li Daoxuan didn't paint for long before he stopped, looking quite relaxed.
The purple air dissipated, the rosy glow became dim, but the aroma of food wafted from the painting, attracting a little green tea that had ordered the wrong recipe.
She seemed to have just climbed out of bed with her eyes closed, but she was able to follow the aroma of food and easily avoid obstacles along the way and came to the painting.
Saliva dripping down.
Li Daoxuan shook his head and smiled, then took out a braised chicken leg from the painting and handed it to Cha Cha.
Faced with the delicious food, Cha Cha finally opened her eyes and started eating with big mouthfuls.
I don’t know why a tea leaf likes to eat meat so much?
After a while, she chewed up the chicken bones and swallowed them, her mouth full of oil. She said, "Uncle Master, this spell is so useful, please teach me!"
These days, the uncle took out food from the paintings for her to eat, and every piece of it was so delicious.
Cha Cha is extremely envious of this spell!
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "Then you should eat less meat and practice more. You are not even in the Yin God Realm, so it is wishful thinking to want to learn this magical power ."
When Cha Cha heard that she had to give up meat, she immediately backed out and ran to wash up.
After she left, Li Daoxuan reached into the painting again, took out a pot of fine wine, and took a sip. The taste was clear and mellow, just like the taste of Chang'an Restaurant.
These past few days he had been practicing to mediate the creation of nature. He no longer went to great lengths to create the world, but instead created some simple things first.
For example, delicious food and fine wine, he found that these inanimate things were easier to create and could be brought into reality, just like Ma Liang's magic pen.
Of course, some things that are too incompatible with the Tang Dynasty world will also be restricted by the rules of heaven and earth and quickly turned to ashes, such as nuclear bombs.
Li Daoxuan was immersed in this mysterious magical power and couldn't extricate himself.
As for the question he once raised, whether the Tang Dynasty world was a painting in someone else's hands, he had let it go.
Because thinking about it will only lead to endless nesting of dolls, and no one can give a definite answer.
Only by constantly improving your cultivation and reaching the highest peak of practice can you perhaps know the answer to this question.
The first quarter of the morning.
Li Daoxuan put away his paintbrush and prepared to open for business. There was nothing he could do. His boss had given him such a generous reward, so as a doctor, he naturally had to do his best.
It’s interesting to think about it. I didn’t expect that he is almost an immortal, but he is still a worker.
Before he pulled open the bolt, there was a sudden rapid knock on the door. In order not to wake up his senior sister, Li Daoxuan waved his sleeves and the bolt fell automatically.
A group of people crowded in, looking hurried and pale, as if they were still in shock.
"Dr. Li, help me, help me!"
“Itchy, so itchy!”
"I feel sore and numb!"
"Let me go first, I'm the most serious!"
The four of them were all middle-aged men. They rushed into the clinic and begged Li Daoxuan to save their lives.
Li Daoxuan just glanced at them, without even opening his third eye, and discovered something was wrong.
The Yang energy in them is so boiling?
The more Yang energy is not necessarily better. The nature of Yang is to distinguish between clear and turbid energy. Yin and Yang energy must achieve a balance in the human body to allow the soul to settle.
If some men encounter a female ghost and become lustful, their yang energy will often be weakened after being sexually exploited, and they will eventually die of coldness and weakness.
This is the manifestation of Yin overpowering Yang.
If ordinary people accidentally provoke ghosts, their yang energy will be damaged, and they will always feel cold and weak, and they will suddenly shiver even in the hottest days.
But the symptoms of the four people in front of him were extremely rare. The Yang energy in their bodies was boiling, and the three fires around their bodies were like raging flames. Not to mention ordinary people, even many cultivators did not have such strong Yang energy.
However, they did not have a trace of magic power. They were definitely not cultivators, nor were they warriors with strong energy and blood. They were just ordinary people.
"If Li's guess is correct, did you all feel hot and unbearable last night, tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep?"
Li Daoxuan did not start to treat them immediately, but looked at them leisurely with a calm voice.
The four of them looked at each other, and then nodded.
"Do you feel a tightness in your chest, as if a big rock is pressing on you, and your hands are hot but your feet are cold?"
The four nodded again, praising Li Daoxuan as a miracle doctor who had predicted all the symptoms.
However, Li Daoxuan's next question made their faces change and they looked evasive.
"Before this, have you ever experienced anything strange, or been to any strange places?"
The surroundings suddenly fell silent. The four people looked around and no one spoke.
Li Daoxuan was not angry either. He took a sip of wine and said calmly, "In that case, please go back."
"This... Doctor Li, even if you don't want to give us acupuncture, please at least give us a prescription..."
The oldest of the four pleaded.
Li Daoxuan smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then you guys listen carefully."
The four of them quickly listened attentively.
"When you get back, find a cool place to lie down, wrap yourself in a mat, and cover your face, too."
One person couldn't help but ask, "Doctor Li, can this cure it?"
"No, but this will allow you to leave in a more dignified manner."
The four people's expressions changed.
Li Daoxuan continued drinking and said, "If you still refuse to tell the truth, you will die of anger in two days at most. Of course, if you are lucky, you may not die, but fall into madness and kill your own wife and children. In the end, you will be killed by the government as a heretic."
The four of them were shocked and their faces turned pale.
Li Daoxuan was not lying to them, that was the fact, their Yang energy was too strong, and that Yang energy was mixed with a violent aura, which would slowly affect their mind.
This disease cannot be cured by medicine.
If Li Daoxuan didn't take action, all the doctors in Langzhong City combined would definitely not be able to cure the disease.
The four of them looked at each other, and finally, between keeping the secret and staying alive, they chose the latter.
It turned out that the four brothers made a living by collecting herbs and were mountain herders.
Seven days ago, they entered Panlong Mountain to collect herbs, but for some reason, the originally clear weather suddenly became filled with white fog.
Fog in the mountains is a big taboo. People find it difficult to tell the direction in it and will eventually freeze to death or die of thirst.
And based on their years of experience, this mountain fog was really strange.
The four of them held hands and tried to grope their way down the mountain, relying on their familiarity with the terrain, but they eventually got lost. They were trapped in one place, cold and thirsty.
Just as they were waiting for death in despair, the mountain fog suddenly dissipated and disappeared without a trace.
It was at this time that they were surprised to find that they had come to a very strange place with lush vegetation and quiet scenery, like a paradise.
They have been collecting herbs in Panlong Mountain all year round and think they have traveled all over the mountain, but they have never seen a place like this.
What surprised them even more was that there were many wild ginsengs growing here, and some of them were quite old.
At this time, the third of the four discovered that there was a nine-leaf ginseng king among the ginseng, which had a strong medicinal fragrance that made people feel invigorated.
They were naturally ecstatic and felt that it was a windfall.
Ginseng has always been an expensive medicinal material. It is said that it only grows one leaf every hundred years, and nine leaves means nine hundred years, which makes it the king of ginseng!
If it grows one more leaf, it will become a thousand-year-old ginseng. Legend has it that eating it can make one immortal and live forever!
The four people did not think about becoming immortals, they just wanted to dig up the nine-leaf ginseng king, then sell it for money and live a rich and prosperous life from then on.
But what they didn't expect was that the Nine-Leaf Ginseng King seemed to have become a spirit. When they were about to dig the soil, it actually burrowed into the ground and escaped.
The four were not willing to give up, and they followed the trail all the way. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they came to a secluded valley.
The Nine-Leaf Ginseng King, who had just tried to escape, was lying obediently on the ground.
The four were about to take the ginseng king away when they heard some movement above their heads. They looked up and saw a scene they would never forget.
"You saw a black dragon?"
Li Daoxuan didn't know what he was thinking of. His expression changed slightly and waves appeared in his eyes.
"What does the black dragon look like?"
“Doctor Li, we don’t know exactly what happened. We just saw a huge black dragon hovering on the top of the mountain. It roared at us, and then we all fainted.”
"Yes, when we woke up again, we found ourselves lying at the foot of the mountain. The herbs we had picked before were still there, but there was no Nine-Leaf Ginseng King."
"We originally planned to rest for a night and then go back into the mountains to see if we could find the ginseng king. But after we got home, our bodies started to feel sore and itchy, and even... we even grew this thing!"
The four men unbuttoned their shirts, exposing their chests.
Li Daoxuan raised his eyebrows and saw that the four people's chests were covered with black scales, which trembled slightly with their breathing , and were out of tune with the surrounding skin.
"Doctor Li, we were greedy before and wanted to monopolize the Nine-Leaf Ginseng King, so we didn't want to tell you. Now we dare not hide anything and tell you everything. Please save us!"
"As long as Divine Doctor Li can cure us, we will give you half of the money from selling the Nine-Leaf Ginseng King!"
Looking at Li Daoxuan's calm face, the oldest of the four gritted his teeth and said, "You take 70%, and the four of us brothers only need 30%!"
Li Daoxuan shook his head, smiled, and sighed softly.
"It's already this time, and you still can't let go of your greed. The Nine-Leaf Ginseng King is obviously deliberately leading you there."
After a pause, Li Daoxuan took out a painting and said, "I can cure you. I don't need the Nine-Leaf Ginseng King. I just need you to answer one question for me truthfully."
The four of them were delighted and asked hurriedly, "What's the problem? Tell me!"
Li Daoxuan slowly opened the painting. In the painting was a black dragon hovering between the mountains, devouring a plum forest.
Black dragon eats plum!
"Is the black dragon you saw that day the same as the dragon in this painting?"
