Journey to the West: Cultivation Begins at Jindou Mountain

Chapter 111: Helping the World, Bringing Buddha to Every Family

Outside Xiaping City, Niu Yi bowed and said goodbye to the City God of Xiaping City.

"Haha~ Please don't see me off, old sir. We'll say goodbye now."

"Hahaha~ Okay, I wish the Taoist priest all the best and a safe journey."

Zhao Xizhu looked at the young man in green clothes walking away, then looked at the two boxes of Tongshen Incense in his hand, with an expression of admiration on his face.

"He was able to casually pull out two boxes of top-grade Tongshen Incense. Judging from its appearance, this Tongshen Incense must have been made by this person himself. What a great skill! It's truly remarkable~"

On the other side, Niu Yi, who was walking in the jungle, looked at the yellowish jade in his hand and smiled.

This jade is exactly the Earth Spirit Jade.

The City God of Xiaping City was actually quite straightforward. After finding him, he took out a bunch of treasures and wanted to exchange them for some Tongshen Incense with him. He was not interested in the other treasures that the other party took out. The only thing he was interested in was this piece of Earth Spirit Jade.

Speaking of which, he had obtained a piece of Earth Spirit Jade from the Guo family that year, and used the spiritual spring transformed from the Earth Spirit Jade to nourish the numerous spiritual roots on the mountain.

Now, he got another Earth Spirit Jade from the City God of Xiaping City.

Niu Yi casually summoned a breeze from between heaven and earth and it fell in front of him. Then, he put the Earth Spirit Jade in his hand into the breeze.

"Go, send this Earth Spirit Jade back to Jindou Mountain and drop it into the Spirit Spring."

As Niu Yi spoke, he sent the breeze carrying the Earth Spirit Jade towards the direction of Jindou Mountain and watched it fly away quickly carrying the Earth Spirit Jade.

The East Wind Sending Message Magic that I figured out back then is no longer just for delivering messages like it was back then.

Over the years, whenever he had some free time, he would spend some time to comprehend this spell. Perhaps it was because this spell was originally something he had comprehended from the heaven and earth. As his magic power and comprehension improved, his spell progressed extremely quickly.

Now, with this magic, he can use the wind to send messages five thousand miles away. Even some small objects can be sent a thousand miles away by the wind.

It would be useless for him to keep the Earth Spirit Jade in his hand. It would be better to send it back to Jindou Mountain and let it fall into the Spirit Spring to add some essence to the Spirit Spring.

Niu Yi watched the Earth Spirit Jade quickly disappear in the breeze, and couldn't help but smile. He turned around and continued walking towards the Eastern Futu Mountain.

On Jindou Mountain, Niu Feng was staring in a daze at the ripples of the spiritual spring in the well.

Niu Ping was watering the fruit trees on the side, looking back at Niu Feng from time to time and shaking his head helplessly.

Before, the leader had been in seclusion outside for three years. During these three years, they had gradually become familiar with how to act when the leader was not on the mountain. However, Niu Feng could not get used to it and often ran to the top of Jindou Mountain to stare blankly.

Niu Ping didn't pay much attention to it and continued to carefully water the peach tree with the bucket.

Just let that guy stay there for a while, he will return to normal after a while.

At this moment, Niu Feng suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing past his head, followed by a slight pain in his forehead, and a yellow jade stone fell from his head and fell into the well.

"Boom!"

However, the yellowish jade fell into the water, splashing water, and quickly melted and disappeared. At the same time, the spiritual energy of the spiritual spring in the well also increased significantly.

Niu Feng stared at the scene in a daze, and only reacted after a moment. He breathed out two heavy breaths through his nostrils and looked up at the sky with some anger!

"Who is this?! Why are you throwing things around?!"

When Niu Yi left Xiaping City, he completely left the mountainous area. He headed eastward on foot without using any magical powers. If he encountered a village or a city, he would enter it and stay overnight.

Until one day, Niu Yi met a man with a broken leg in the mountains. Niu Yi stopped, reconnected the man's leg bones, and sent him back to the village.

After the man's family knelt down excitedly to express their gratitude, many people from the village came to him and asked him to treat their illnesses.

Niu Yi had no problem with it. He had studied the pharmacopoeia and medical books for three hundred years, so these mortal diseases were easy for him to treat.

However, he did not use the spiritual materials on his body or the red flower fragrance to save people. Instead, he used what he had learned over three hundred years, using local materials to prescribe medicine to save people. Only in very rare cases would he take out some pills made from spiritual materials to save one or two people.

But after that, the matter got out of control, and Taoist Guangyi's reputation as a miraculous doctor spread more and more widely.

Later, Niu Yi simply carried the medicine box from that year on his back, just like a wandering Taoist priest who saved people's lives.

Although this took a lot of time and slowed down his pace, Niu Yi was somewhat happy with it. At this time, in a village.

Niu Yi put down the brush in his hand, picked up the paper, blew the words dry, and then handed it to the couple in front of him who were waiting eagerly.

"You two should follow this prescription to prepare the herbs and boil them. Drink it every day after meals. In less than five days, your illness will be cured."

"Okay, okay! Thank you, Master Divine Doctor! Thank you, Master Divine Doctor!"

The couple had no doubts at all. They bowed repeatedly to Niu Yi with excitement, then quickly retreated to let the next person come forward.

"Master Divine Doctor, I was bitten by a poisonous snake on my leg. Although I am fine, my leg hurts terribly when it is windy or rainy. Please help me see if this can be cured."

"Okay, let me take a look first."

Niu Yi looked at the rolled-up trouser legs of the man in front of him and raised his eyebrows at the blue veins on his legs. It was obvious that there was snake venom deposited in the man's legs, and the situation was getting worse.

"It can be cured, but it might be a little painful, so you have to bear with it."

As Niu Yi spoke, he took out several silver needles from the medicine box, asked the man to lift his legs, and then inserted the silver needles into the acupuncture points on the man's legs.

The villagers who were queuing behind the man and watching the fun couldn't help but show respect and admiration on their faces when they saw this scene.

No one knew where this young Taoist priest came from, but he had become very famous in this area in recent days and was called the Taoist priest of miracle medicine by everyone.

This is because this doctor only charges a very small amount of money for treatment, and he can cure any difficult and complicated disease.

Although he looks young, he has superb medical skills and is extremely capable. It is really amazing.

But the villagers in the mountains didn't care about these. They only knew this man, who would treat people for just one copper coin.

This is the best thing ever!
He walked eastward, and wherever he went, there would be long queues and a constant stream of people coming to see him. However, he also had his own rules, and he would leave at sunset.

Even so, he is extremely loved. I heard that many people are planning to build statues of him and place them at home for worship. He can be said to be a Buddha-like existence in thousands of families.

Niu Yi watched as several of his silver needles gathered the snake venom on the man's thigh. He circulated his magic power slightly and pulled out a silver needle. A stream of black and red poisonous blood flowed out along with the silver needle and fell to the ground.

"That's about it. I'll write you a prescription later. It contains some easily found herbs. You can use this prescription to recuperate for a while."

If he were to stay for a while again, he wouldn't mind not using his magic power to detoxify this person again and again, but he still had to continue his journey east. Since he was going to treat someone, he naturally had to treat him thoroughly.

"Yes, yes! Thank you, Master Divine Doctor!"

When Niu Yi finished writing the prescription and handed it to this man, he saw the man take out a copper coin with some patina from his arms and put it into the wooden box on the table next to Niu Yi.

Niu Yi looked at the pile of copper coins in the box with a smile on his face.

It has been more than two months since he came east from Xiaping City. He has been practicing medicine and saving lives along the way, and the copper coins he has accumulated are more than just this small wooden box.

But at this moment, several big men holding wooden sticks, led by a housekeeper, were walking towards this side. As they walked, they impatiently shouted at the villagers.

"Get out of the way! Stay out of the way!!"

When many villagers saw these people, they couldn't help but show fear in their eyes and made way. However, the whispering sounds around allowed Niu Yi to hear the identity of the people who came.

"It's Zhu San from the Zhu Mansion. Why is he here with the Zhu Mansion's guards?"

"Why else would you come here? You must be looking for the Taoist priest who's a miracle doctor! Have you forgotten about Mr. Zhu's illness?"

"Oh, it's true!"

But the steward named Zhu San drove everyone away, and quickly came to Niu Yi with many big men. He immediately put on a smile on his face, bowed to Niu Yi and said:
"I guess you are the legendary Taoist doctor, Taoist Guangyi!"

"Exactly. I wonder what brings you here?"

"I've long heard of the name of the miraculous Taoist doctor. I'm Zhu San, the steward of the Zhu Mansion. My master would like to invite you, the miraculous doctor, to treat a patient. He has promised that if you can cure his stubborn illness, he will reward you handsomely."
