Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 386
Qiu Sanweng brought his granddaughter Qiu Xiaoji to work for Li Lijun as a fifth-level (false) qi refining, and he worked so hard to help her collect so many spiritual materials and spiritual objects in one day, and he was still humble to her in terms of fees.No one would believe him if he said he didn't have his own ideas.

Li Lijun didn't mind either.If others are willing to help her, they naturally have a purpose, otherwise why bother?As long as she can achieve her goal, she will help if she can, and she will refuse if she can't. There is nothing to worry about.

In fact, Qiu Sanweng's conditions are also very reasonable.He is old, his cultivation base has been dropped for many years, and now he doesn't know how long he can live. The most worrying thing is his granddaughter, and maybe he has his own sect.But the sect ceased to exist many years ago, and it was a bit unrealistic to talk about rebuilding it, so what he was most concerned about was the issue of his granddaughter.But Qiu Xiaoji is young and has a low cultivation level, and his cultivation talent is also very ordinary. He wants to entrust the child to others to take care of him. Instead of looking for Li Lijun, an employer whom he has only known for less than two days, it is better to find Guan Zhenren, a junior from the same school.In this way, there is only one thing left for him to ask Li Lijun for help.

He was injured and caused his cultivation base to decline, and now he looks old and weak, coughing a few times when he said a word, obviously an old injury that has not healed.After Li Lijun appeared in the comprehension market, although she has always been famous for her talents in talismans, after the appearance of Erhong, an "acquaintance", a new background was introduced, that is, she knew several people with cultivation bases above the foundation. Among them are experts in refining weapons and talisman formations, and there is also a master of alchemy, and Li Lijun can also get the elixir refined by this master.

On this point, Taoist Xuanying still has gossip.

Qiu Sanweng is still a disciple of Zhenxianguan in name, so he can naturally hear these rumors from Guan Zhenren or Taoist Xuanying.He will bring his granddaughter to work for Li Lijun, a junior. Apart from thinking that a boss like her is easy to deal with, he must also have a plan to connect with her and get in touch with the Dan Dao masters behind her.

No matter whether this road can help his injury, it is better than him doing nothing, just waiting for his body to decline day by day.

However, considering that he and Li Lijun just met each other and had just done a day's work for someone and showed off his skills, Qiu Sanweng's request was not too much. He just wanted to ask Li Lijun to inquire about his injuries. Which pills should be taken more suitable?Where can such pills usually be obtained?
Qiu Sanweng felt that if he was just helping to inquire about the news, instead of directly asking someone to send a message to ask Dan, the little boss had no reason to refuse him.

Li Lijun didn't intend to refuse either.She doesn't need to ask people this kind of question, she can answer it by herself.But before answering, she had to ask Qiu Sanweng clearly, how did he get hurt?What pills have you taken in these years?What treatment have you done?
When Qiu Sanweng heard this, he was silent for a while, and then heaved a long sigh.

He was injured more than 30 years ago.At that time, he was in his prime, full of energy, and he was a second-tier foundation-building monk, about to be promoted, and he was extremely famous in the sect.If he hadn't been disinterested in the general affairs of the sect, he might have stepped down on his senior brother's favorite heir and only son—that is, Du Zhenren—to become the next head of the sect.

That time, there was an evil cultivator who met a disciple of Lingguang Valley when he was passing by. In order to avoid leaking his whereabouts, he killed someone to silence him. When other people in Lingguang Valley found out, he hurriedly reported back to the door, and he rushed out immediately after hearing about it. Track down the murderer.

He chased the evil cultivator all the way to the area of ​​the ice crystal top, but because the surrounding environment was too cold, the other party's escape speed slowed down, so he overtook him.The two had a fight, and he tried to get injured and stabbed the person to death, but something went wrong when he left.

At that time, he was injured on his leg, and his movement was inconvenient. He was stabbed in the lungs, and after inhaling the cold air, he almost froze on the spot.In that case, he had no way to leave on his own, and could only count on his fellow disciples to save him.

However, all the Lingguang Valley disciples who followed after hearing the news were only in the Qi refining period, and the one with the highest cultivation level was his son. He could only climb halfway up the mountain at most, and was unable to go any further.The rest of the Qi Refining disciples only dared to linger at the foot of the mountain, they had to go back to the sect to find the Foundation Establishment monks.

At that time, there were actually two Foundation Establishment cultivators in Lingguang Valley. One was the leader at that time—Qiu Sanweng called him Brother Du—claimed that he was old and his lifespan was approaching, and he could no longer leave the sect to take risks; One was Master Du, who didn't even show his shadow.The disciple who was closer to him spread the word that it was because Qiu Sanweng broke into the forbidden area of ​​the True Immortal Temple without authorization, and Du Zhen was afraid that the True Immortal Temple would be furious, so he rushed over to explain it, but he hasn't come back yet.

Qiu Sanweng stayed on the mountain for more than half a day before he managed to recover a bit, climbed down the top of the ice crystal by himself, met his son halfway up the mountain, and then went down the mountain with his son on his back.

The injury he suffered was not serious, and after he had sucked in the cold air for a long time on the top of the ice crystal, the root of the disease was buried.For the next 30 years, he didn't know what elixir he should take, and the sect could only ask for a few healing elixir. After taking it, his external injury healed, but he didn't know what went wrong with his internal injury. No matter how difficult it was to return to his peak state .Another foreign enemy attacked, and it happened that the head master and his disciples were not there. He barely managed to fight against them, and beat them away, but he suffered a serious illness afterward. .

Qiu Sanweng used to use a black iron epee, and his swordsmanship took the path of opening and closing.But after being injured, he couldn't lift his sword anymore. After walking a few steps and saying a few words, he couldn't help coughing. How could he still have the heroic posture of the past?After the sect was merged into the True Immortal Temple, he fused his heavy sword and reforged it into an iron crutch, which was used as a walking aid, and he rarely fought with people anymore.

Qiu Sanweng said to Li Lijun: "The old man is a rough man. When he was young, he only put his heart into the practice of swordsmanship. The alchemists in Lingguang Valley are also mediocre. They can refine some common elixirs. The elixirs for healing injuries are really not enough The old man has nowhere to ask for advice. It has been so many years now, and he only remembers what kind of elixir he has taken, and the others don't know. If the master knows someone who is an expert, can you help the old man find out?"

Li Lijun asked the names of the pills he had taken, and thought for a moment: "These kinds of pills are for treating trauma and regulating qi and blood. It is reasonable to say that they should be symptomatic. But when you were old, you were not only injured by trauma, but also Invasion of cold air, this should also be taken into consideration when taking pills. Those kinds of pills are nothing else, and there are two of them. If you follow the commonly used pill recipes, you will use a lot of cold ones. The medicinal materials are probably not good for your internal organs, but will aggravate the coldness in your body. If at that time, you had taken one or two more warming and cold-dispelling pills to force out the coldness, it would be fine. Over 30 years... During the period... After staying in dark and humid places like mines for a long time, I am afraid that the cold has already taken root in your body, and it will be difficult to cure. Do you feel depressed and sore in your waist and leg joints now, when it is windy and rainy? Is it particularly uncomfortable? Even in the summer, as long as there is wind or the surrounding moisture is heavy, you will cough uncontrollably, and even cough all night, making it difficult to sleep?"

The more Qiu Sanweng listened, his eyes became brighter: "Boss, so you are an expert?"

"I've heard a lot from the elders, so I understand a little bit." Li Lijun made a vague and modest sentence, and then asked tentatively, "The place where you were injured...is it called Bingjingding? Is that the forbidden place of the True Immortal Temple? Where is it? Is there anything special about the coldness there? If someone is injured by the coldness there, is there any precedent for healing?"
