Fate is immortal

Above the restaurant, Gu Yuetian and A Yuan raised their wine bowls and drank them all in one gulp.

Although A Yuan drank wine in his hometown, he had never drank it so heartily in one gulp.This wine has a mellow and strong aroma. Although it burns the throat very hot, it feels warm and comfortable in the stomach. It must be the legendary Husu fine wine.

After drinking, Gu Yuetian wiped his mouth and slapped the table, and happily opened up the conversation.

"At the turn of spring and summer this year, a plague suddenly broke out in several small countries in the northwestern part of the Eastern Kingdom. The plague patients coughed up blood, and in severe cases, developed green spots all over their bodies, festered and died. This epidemic was unheard of, and all the doctors in the Eastern Kingdom were helpless. Seeing The epidemic is getting worse and worse, and several small countries are empty, and the people who are still alive have fled to the neighboring countries. However, the neighboring countries are afraid that the epidemic will spread, and they have to tear their faces and unite to block the border. You can't enter. I'm afraid that there is a dead area now. If you don't feel it here, if you go north and get closer to Yunling, you will know how panicked people are.

"The group of doctors is incompetent, the nations are ungrateful, and we can't just blame God, so we have to say that the disease came in a strange way, fearing that there are monsters. So Dongguo offered a reward of 10 taels of gold, begging for a famous doctor who can get rid of the plague, or someone who can find it." Out of the source of the epidemic, the head of the 'demon' was beheaded - 10 taels of gold arrived at the Xiahui, and a red bronze medal was sent away. Is there such a cheap thing in the world? It shows how shameless the Xiahui is today. Little brother, I Seeing that you are eager to try, I would like to advise you a few words, the epidemic comes and goes without a trace, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, there is no way to prevent it. Don't just think about good things, put your life on the line."

"Then what if it's really a demon?"

"Is it really a monster? Haha, of course, you can hide as far as you can! How can a 'monster' who took thousands of lives with a wave of his hand, be able to settle it? This kind of joke is only you This foolish boy who has just arrived takes it seriously..."

After all, Gu Yuetian is an old Jianghu, so he explained this enigmatic task clearly in a few words.A Yuan frowned and weighed it up in his mind. Although the rewards are exciting, the treatment of epidemic diseases is indeed not the director of the original hero, and there is no room for him to talk, so he smiled and said: "Brother Gu, tell me again." Tell me, what happened to the red-dressed thief Yu Yanluo and the daughter of Yang Huai, the owner of Wangyun Villa?"

Gu Yuetian frowned, raised his wine bowl and said, "Come on, let's have a drink, talk about one, and stop talking nonsense."

A Yuan didn't shirk, raised the wine bowl and drank it in one gulp.

"Good job!" Gu Yuetian praised, and began to preach: "I have met Yu Yanluo once, she is just a teenage girl, and her martial arts are not worth mentioning. Five or six years ago When she first debuted, she just went in and out of some ancient tombs and stole some buried jewelry and ancient artifacts. No one took her to heart as a young female thief, but she was only occasionally used as a talking point among rangers and detectives."

"But in the past two or three years, she has suddenly developed skills and started to steal from famous families. She neither takes money nor treats it as treasures. She just steals various rare elixir and leaves a letter saying 'Jade Yama' If you borrow it and use it, you will repay it twice in the future. At the end, you have to keep some gold and silver to be unique, and this is why you have a little reputation. But as the case gets bigger and bigger, more and more rewards are offered for her arrest."

"Although she is good at beaming, she is not good at martial arts. In the past few years, she has been arrested several times by the Xiahui and the governments of various countries, but each time, within a few days, someone will rob the prison and rescue her. Even the Xiahui will be killed." From then on, her name as the 'Red Makeup Thief Jade Yan Luo' became famous, but when the Jianghu brothers talked about her, they all talked about the person behind her, who the hell is..."

Speaking of this, Gu Yuetian has already whetted A Yuan's appetite.But he suddenly stopped, and under the anxious eyes of A Yuan, he drank a bowl of wine leisurely, and then continued: "The most famous time is that half a year ago, she went into the residence of Zhu Ziguo Township Duke Xu Wei at night to steal two thousand-year-old plants. The fern tail grass was caught on the spot. Mr. Xu had a bad temper and did not turn the government over, so he lynched him on the spot. As a result - that night, the Zhen Guo mansion was full of flames, and a man in black fell from the sky and took Xu All 15 people involved in the torture were killed, and their heads were strung together on a string and hung above the gate."

Gu Yuetian laughed strangely, and said: "After this incident, although Zhu Ziguo offered a reward of a thousand taels of gold to catch this female snitch, no one dared to accept it anymore. The Duke of the Town, Xu Wei, lived over a hundred years old, and he was from the former Yu Kingdom. He is a survivor, a master of true energy, a dragon spear with a cold light three feet, piercing through steel armor like tofu... Hehe, little brother, do you have the life to take that [-] rice?"

A Yuan was dumbfounded when he heard this, and in his fantasy, the robber with red makeup wearing a big red flower on his head was also hidden behind a big man in black with a hulking back and a hairy chest.

In any case, A Yuan was not confident enough to beat the master of infuriating form, so he hurriedly asked: "What about the one who lost her daughter? What's the reason? There is no danger of life if you find someone, right?"

"That's not necessarily the case. This task is dangerous and weird, and it may not be inferior to the other two. If we want to talk about it in detail, we have to start with this thing..." Gu Yuetian shook his sleeves, and a crystal-clear stone fell on the ground. The table rolled and rolled, and stopped in front of A Yuan.It was the spirit stone cut out from the belly of the blue scale fish that day.At this time, the blood stains on the spirit stone had already been wiped clean, and the color was dark blue, as if the water in the deep sea had solidified into crystals.

"Lingshi?" A Yuan was taken aback, "The lost girl has something to do with Lingshi?"

Gu Yuetian shook his head, beckoning him not to be impatient, pointed to the spirit stone and said, "Little brother, do you know the beauty of this spirit stone?"

A Yuan replied without hesitation: "It is said in the book that spirit stones are formed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They are rare treasures in the world. They can be transformed into internal energy and save people from years of hard work at once. Brother Gu, is it true? ?”

Gu Yuetian nodded slightly and said: "It's roughly correct. People who practice martial arts train their breath internally and their muscles, bones and skin externally. What they practice internally is a breath of true energy. And the spirit stone concentrates the essence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, if it can be completely Absorb it, and naturally you can greatly improve your skills."

Speaking of this, Gu Yuetian paused on purpose, taking A Yuan's sharply changing expression into his eyes, and then changed the subject: "But if it's really that simple, wouldn't the spirit stone become a panacea? Will someone sell it? In fact, if you want to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone, there are two big problems."

A Yuan's heart was agitated, he raised the wine bowl and drank it in one gulp, filled another bowl of wine for Gu Yuetian, and said, "My little brother likes to hear this, Brother Gu might as well explain it in detail."

Gu Yuetian chuckled and said, "Since spiritual energy is divided into five elements, so are spiritual stones, which can be roughly divided into five types of spiritual stones: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. However, the spiritual energy in natural spiritual stones is often not pure, and is usually a variety of A mixture of auras. Like the one in your hand, it is bluish blue, with a faint luster, and it should be a mixture of two auras of gold and water, between the golden spirit stone and the water spirit stone."

A Yuan had read it in Xiao Chi's book, and knew that it would be extremely risky to mix five-element auras of different attributes, so he interjected, "The impure aura is the first problem?"

"That's right. Martial arts practitioners practice internal energy to ensure that their internal breath is pure. However, among the spirit stones, nine out of ten are mixed with spiritual energy and inhaled rashly in the dantian. If there is no basis for internal energy, it's fine. Otherwise, you must practice with yourself. The true qi of each other is born in the same genus. Otherwise, if they collide, it is definitely not a joke."

A Yuan suddenly realized: "I understand, that is to say, people who have to cultivate the true energy of metal and water, or have no internal strength foundation at all, can absorb the spiritual energy in this spirit stone?"

Gu Yuetian nodded, but shook his head again and said: "Although this spirit stone is mainly composed of gold and water, natural spirit stones are often mixed with the spirit energy of the five elements. These spirit energy gather in one place all the year round, but it is not easy Everything is fine, but once it is inhaled into the dantian and separated, it will be difficult to say. Even if a master with profound inner strength can suppress one or two weak auras of different species, the true qi will inevitably be impure , bury hidden dangers, but the gain outweighs the loss. Not to mention those whose inner strength is not deep, the conflict of true energy is a dead end. For example, my old valley has mediocre inner strength, but at least I have some foundation. The spirit energy in this spirit stone is old. God gave it to me, and I dare not accept it."

A Yuan always felt that his internal strength was already good, so he was inevitably a little discouraged after hearing this, and asked unwillingly: "So, people without internal strength are the most suitable?"

Gu Yuetian said leisurely: "It's a pity that there is another problem. It is not easy to extract the spiritual energy from the spirit stone and inhale it into the dantian. Some people think that the spirit stone will melt when held in the hand and in the mouth. What a joke! If so, this spirit stone was dug out from the belly of the fish, and it would have disappeared sooner? In fact, the spirit stone must be cultivated repeatedly with true energy to get the spirit energy Pull it out little by little. In other words, first of all, you must have internal strength.”

A Yuan frowned when he heard this, and then he realized what the dilemma is. For those who have no foundation in internal skills, Lingshi is like a hard walnut, although it is very beneficial, it cannot be eaten.Once you have the ability to crack open the hard shell, this thing will do more harm than good.

"So, isn't this spirit stone useless? Why is it still so valuable?"

Gu Yuetian smiled and said: "That's not the case. If the aura in the spirit stone is pure and pure, or if it matches the attribute of true energy very well, then it is a treasure that is not easy to come by. It's just that the spirit stone is already rare. Finding a suitable piece is one in a thousand, how can it be so coincidental? Therefore, most of them can only be sold at a high price, or exchanged for opportunities.”

Speaking of this, Gu Yuetian paused, took a sip of his wine, and suddenly lowered his voice: "Besides, ordinary people don't need it, and there are immortal cultivators..."

"Immortal cultivator?"

A Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he even scolded himself for being too stupid. This spirit stone is originally something that is only found in the world of cultivating immortals in the legend!

Gu Yuetian said sternly: "Ordinary people can't use it, they can't use it, but immortals are different. In the hands of others, spirit stones can naturally be absorbed at will. As for the mixing of true energy, there is a solution. Perhaps a little conflict of true qi is nothing to others. A bucket of mud can pollute a well, but how can it get a vast ocean? This spirit stone is something that a cultivator of immortals deserves."

A Yuan was overjoyed when he heard that, and praised sincerely: "Brother Gu, you are really amazing, you even understand the world of cultivating immortals so clearly."

Gu Yuetian was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Of course. Little brother, haven't you heard a saying that is widely circulated in the world? If you have any questions, ask Brother Gu!"
