The deep clouds and smoke that never dissipates all day long, the Taoist temple that is rarely visited.Guo Shao met an old man with all white hair and beard.
Perhaps everyone present can be sure that he is a true practitioner. He practices hard here, with only two servants accompanying him, one of whom is deaf and dumb. It is difficult to even bring food on the mountain. If people are for fame and fortune, what fun will it be to live in this place even if they have a wealth of wealth?
The Mayi Taoist sat next to the stone table under a pine tree. On the stone bench was a pair of straw mats, and on the table were paper, pen, inkstones and paperweights.
It turns out that he was dressed in a worn-out dirt-gray linen cloth, and even the veil on his white hair was also thick and numb.
Master!Qingxu ran over with an excited expression on his face. The teenage lady really couldn't be as calm as a Taoist in Mayi. She was grievanced, but her voice was very crisp and brisk. The master left me on the Shu road. The officers and soldiers of Shu Kingdom said that I was a spy and arrested me. This Guo Du Envoy was a general of the Zhou Dynasty. He saved me, but asked me to find my master to save his people.Master is in Mount Emei, so we can't get through, so we come to Mount Hua to find Master.
The Taoist in Mayi ignored his disciples, but stared at Guo Shao's face, shook his head slightly, and frowned again, with a strange expression.
Master, Master!Qingxu called him like a spoiled person.
The Taoist in Mayi said: What do you say?
snort!Qingxu was completely angry. After saying so many words, why didn’t you listen to a single word?
The military soldiers and soldiers were all outside the yard, and Guo Shao and Jingniang stood there, no one greeted them.
Guo Shao stepped forward to see him: I called Guo Shao. I have long admired the name of the Taoist Taoist in Mai, and took the liberty to pay homage to him. I disturbed the old immortal's cultivation. Please forgive me.
The Taoist in Mayi said: You are so strange.
Guo Shao was stunned, not knowing how to answer, but after thinking about it, he said politely: I wonder where the younger generation has been rude?He suppressed his anxiety and talked nonsense with this person here. He couldn't say anything about his hardships, and he really pretended to be a grandson.
However, it took a lot of effort and thought to meet the Taoist Ma Yi, and finally saw it.
I hope that the Taoist Taoist in Mayi is indeed capable... Guo Shao doesn't doubt this. First of all, this old Taoist priest is definitely not a person who deceives the world and seeks fame and fortune. People in the world are fame and fortune, and those who can break fame and fortune are not ordinary people.
Furthermore, Guo Shao also wondered, how old is this old man?
It is said that Fuyaozi Chen Tuan passed the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty and was summoned by the emperor to reward palace maids. These things are true or false, but at least they can prove that Chen Tuan was already an adult in the Tang Dynasty. I am afraid he is in his eighties or nineties now!
And this Mayi Taoist Master is actually the master of an old Taoist priest in his eighties or nineties... Conservatively estimated that Mayi Taoist Master is over a hundred years old.
In this era when he died in his thirties and forties, how did he live to be over 100 years old?
People who live to be one hundred years old can occasionally be seen in modern times, but Guo Shao has never seen such a person with red faces and bright eyes and not cloudy eyes... Even on TV.
The Taoist Mayi was originally indifferent to the calm and calm expression, but now he seemed a little frowning. He said: Why is your face completely different from spiritual energy?Is there a completely opposite example of the learning I have studied throughout my life?
Guo Shao then remembered that Chen Tuan had said this back then. This ma-clothed Taoist is even more powerful. He said the same thing at a glance.
He said Guo Shao was strange... Guo Shao also felt that his theory was inexplicable. Are the things in this world not composed of different material elements?
But Guo Shao is no longer afraid now. The old Taoist priest cannot keep him for any research now... He, a Taoist priest, should not be able to keep himself.
But I had some doubts in my heart: Is there really something invisible in a person?
It seems to make sense to say that the conflict between body and qi is inconsistent, and Guo Shao’s current thinking does not belong here.
Not to mention that people in this era cannot understand this kind of thing, even modern people may just laugh it off... Even if the Mayi Taoist can really see it, no one believes him.
No, no... The Taoist in Mayi completely ignores Qingxu and Jingniang.
Guo Shao hurriedly said: I beg the old senior to come out and save someone's life, and she will die!As long as you save her life, I can do whatever I want in the future.
The Taoist Mayi asked: Who should I save?
Guo Shao said: The Queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The Taoist in Mayi suddenly said: The eldest daughter of the Fu family?I've seen her.Destiny is determined by heaven, no one can save it.
Guo Shao hurriedly took out Xiang Xun's letter and handed it on his hands. The letter described the queen's condition and the diagnosis of the imperial doctor in detail. He simply knelt in front of the Taoist in Mayi, leaned down and bowed down and bowed: Beg the old immortal!
Qingxu looked at him in surprise.
The Taoist in Mayi didn't even look at the papers, and shook his head and said: You go.I am really powerless to save people.
Jing Niang suddenly said coldly: Humanity, Buddhism saves people, Taoism saves oneself.But I didn't expect that a respected person like you would stand by and watch without even looking at him.If there is a destiny, we will stand by and watch your disciples in Qingniling. Will Qingxu's destiny be like this?
The Taoist in Mayi didn't speak.After hearing this, Guo Shao thought to himself: Jing Niang also seems to be a Taoist sect. When it comes to bad things about Taoism, isn’t he a sincere religious person?
Jingniang said again: I think you are afraid of the secular queen status and are afraid that you will not save a good person. This may not only affect you, but also affect your immortal name.
After hearing this, Guo Shao felt that Jing Niang was a bit too much, but it suited her own thoughts.
He thought that the Mayi Taoist would argue, or simply ignore it.
However, the Taoist in Mayi said without any attention: Everything in the world should be natural and should not be forced.I don’t care about fame and fortune even more... But this donor was right. I should see what happened to the eldest daughter of the Fu family.
The Taoist Mai picked up the letter paper on the stone table, stroked the white beard on his chin and looked at it.
After a while, he spoke again: The eldest daughter of the Fu family is the queen, and the person who diagnoses the patient must be a famous doctor of the world, and the description should be unbiased.As the imperial doctor said, she was destined to suffer from heat and then the heavy rain forced the heat toxin into her body... I have no choice but to do anything about this doctor.
Guo Shao said: Do you think of another way?
The Taoist in Mayi sighed: What I have learned throughout my life is that except for facial appearance, it is inner elixir. I have not learned a lot about external elixirs, and I have never refined elixirs... But Chen Tuan also refines external elixirs. If he is there, he will use a pair of external elixirs and then uses internal elixirs to easily promote the poison of heat, maybe he can try it.
Guo Shao said anxiously: As the Taoist Nun Qingxu said, Fu Yaozi and her went south to Mount Emei, and should be in Shu Kingdom now.It’s just that Shu is an enemy country, but the mountains are high and the road is far away, and I don’t know where he is. Even if I luckily found someone, I don’t know when it will be.Can the queen last for so long?
The Taoist in Mayi said: What's the solution?I said you don’t understand either. Those who have never practiced inner alchemy will be in vain to teach you how to breathe and it will be of little effect.If people have fate, you don’t need to be too sad. People with birth, old age, sickness and death are shared, and people will die.
Guo Shao suddenly realized and hurriedly said: I remembered that Fu Yaozi gave me a fairy pill a few years ago, saying that it could drive away the anger on me to avoid internal and external conflicts.I didn't eat it, I still keep it!Can the fire immortal pill drive away the heat?Can you still eat this after several years?
What kind of elixir, what kind of smell, and what kind of taste does it taste like?The Taoist asked.
Guo Shao looked confused. How could he know what pill it was? He didn't take it, let alone what it tasted, but the smell was because of curiosity.
Now I described it based on my remaining impression, but I really don’t know what it feels like... Because I have read a piece of information before, saying that the elixir refined by Taoist priests contain heavy metal substances, and eating them may cause chronic poisoning. It is not conducive to health if they remain in the body.
How could Guo Shao want to eat this thing at that time?
After hearing this, the Taoist in Mayi was neither sure nor denied.Guo Shao hurriedly said: If you have to get a pill, it is too late now, so how about using that one?How to use it?
The Taoist in Mayi said: It’s your business if you want to try it.
Guo Shao said: Didn’t you say you still need to practice inner alchemy?If you don’t teach us, no one knows how to do Ah.
The Taoist in Mayi finally glanced at Qingxu, turned his head and frowned and said: You are the one who violated his destiny. You must sacrifice to heaven and do not mention this matter in front of anyone.Logically, such things are not conducive to the Tao, and at the least they will also reduce their life.
Guo Shao said without hesitation: Anything can do.
The Taoist in Mayi slowly stood up and greeted Qingxu: Come with Master.
Guo Shao remained silent and couldn't stop Qingxu from leaving. He just thought: There was only one way up the mountain, and there was a cliff behind the Taoist temple.
The soldiers guarded the yard and intersection outside. Unless the Taoist priests in this temple really became immortals and could fly, how could they avoid their own people and leave?
What's more, the Mayi Taoist seems to be a respected practitioner. You can't just talk nonsense and deceive others, right?
He was really confused. According to what the Taoist Ma Yi said, it seemed that there were many kinds of elixirs. How could the elixir given by Chen Tuan be effective?
Looking back carefully, everything I did for Queen Fu was very unreliable, and I was simply seeking medical treatment in a hurry... But what else can I do?
In this era, people can die if they catch a cold. The doctor only relies on traditional experience to cure diseases, and herbs are the main means; Guo Shao is not a doctor, and even the doctor is far inferior to the current doctor. He is really helpless.
Guo Shao stood beside the stone table in a daze, no one paid attention to them or treated them. He and Jing Niang looked at each other.
The deep mountains were very quiet, and he looked up at the sky again, vaguely knowing where he was.
I just feel that the surroundings are full of mystery and weirdness.
Perhaps everyone present can be sure that he is a true practitioner. He practices hard here, with only two servants accompanying him, one of whom is deaf and dumb. It is difficult to even bring food on the mountain. If people are for fame and fortune, what fun will it be to live in this place even if they have a wealth of wealth?
