Ask about the Immortal Way

"Look at you little Taoist priest, why are you so polite..."

The old woman complained about Qin Sang, turned around and opened her mouth to shout, "Master, master, if you have more mouths, you can fill more bowls of rice..."

"How can there be so many people?"

In the woodshed, an old man stuck his head out, glanced at Qin Sang, and his eyes lit up slightly.

After taking a look at Qin Sang, he suddenly saw the mud spots on his leggings. An imperceptible flash of disappointment flashed in the old man's eyes. He whispered "Oh" and turned back.

The courtyard is very narrow and dilapidated.

In Xianyuan City, such dilapidated courtyards are no longer common. Qin Sang's nose is sensitive and he can smell the aroma of rice coming from the woodshed. It is all the coarse grains and bran vegetables he had eaten in Qingyang Temple.

The old couple probably don't have the money to repair it.

Following the old woman, she walked towards the small stone house with only two rooms. The wooden door was covered with a thick layer of thatch. As soon as she opened it, a strong herbal smell hit her nostrils, immediately overpowering the aroma of rice.

"To seek immortality, call the Taoist priest quickly."

The old woman brought out a child. The child was very thin, with a sallow complexion and skinny muscles. Qin Sang knew at a glance that he had insufficient Qi and must be suffering from some illness.

In the dim room, there was a lame man with one leg. The Eight Immortals table was cushioned with stones. There was a bowl on it. There was a dark medicinal soup in it, which was still steaming. It must have been boiled for children.

The child was shy and hid behind the old woman. He peeked at Qin Sang and quickly retreated when he caught Qin Sang's gaze, not daring to make a sound.

"You kid..."

The old woman touched the young man's head lovingly, but did not blame her. She called Qin Sang: "This is my eldest grandson. His parents died early. He was weak since he was a child and cannot catch the wind, so he dare not let him go out. He is timid. I'm afraid of meeting strangers, alas... The little Taoist priest will sit down first, don't be disgusted, just fill your stomach."

"I am not picky about food."

Qin Sang said seriously and sat down at the table without ceremony.

Qiu Xian had to ask his grandmother to accompany him before he dared to return to the table to take medicine.

The dark medicinal soup was difficult for a child to swallow, but Qiu Xian picked up the bowl and drank it all quickly, as if he could not feel the bitterness.

The old man served food that was even rougher than that of Qingyang Temple back then, but Qin Sang ate it deliciously and wolfed it down.

"Don't be anxious, eat slowly, there is still more in the pot..."

The old woman didn't even eat. She watched Qin Sang eating happily, and suddenly said: "Master, if his parents hadn't been sick, they would have been this old."

The old man put down the bowl, reached for the cigarette bag next to him, took a puff, and said in a low voice: "I didn't learn how to eat like a god and sleep in the open, I found it myself!"

Qin Sang picked up the rice and finished it quickly.

The old woman wanted to serve him food, but Qin Sang shook her head and refused, "It's getting late, and I have to hurry..."

With that said, Qin Sang glanced at Qiuxian and walked over.

Qiuxian was no longer so afraid of Qin Sang. He shrank a little, but mustered up his courage and looked at Qin Sang with his bright eyes.

Qin Sang knelt down, touched Qiuxian's head, took out a dim yellow jade pendant from his arms, hung it around Qiuxian's neck, and said: "Thank you three benefactors for the meal. A piece of broken jade is not disrespectful, so I will give it to you." Seeking immortality..."

Seeking immortality has no spiritual roots.

This jade pendant was cut from a very inconspicuous yellow stone. It was hardly considered jade. However, Qin Sang left a simple restriction on it, so that it would not cause other immortal cultivators to covet it, but it could help those seeking immortality to regulate their bodies.

Mortal doctors are helpless to deal with his illnesses, but Qin Sang can diagnose and treat them easily.

The old man and his wife could live in the same room as Qiuxian for a long time, and they would get a lot of benefits.

"How does this make..."

The old man hurriedly put down his pipe.

The couple came over to see that it was not a precious jade pendant, and then they stopped pushing.

Qiu Xian was playing with the jade pendant, obviously liking it, and suddenly hugged Qin Sang's legs, then ran back and hid it.

There was another call to stay, and the grandfather and grandson were about to send Qin Sang out when suddenly there was a sound of hurried running from outside, and then someone shouted loudly, with anxious crying.

"Doctor Wu! Doctor Wu..."

"It's the boss of the Liu family!"

The old woman heard it all at once, suddenly remembered something, and said in surprise: "Could it be the old man of the Liu family..."

The old man thought for a while, said 'hmm', and said in a calm tone: "It's close, almost ninety or two, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass this level."

The old woman lamented: "Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law is going to give birth in a few days, she can't even make it through..."

"We have five generations living together, what's the pity," the old man turned around and put on his cotton-padded jacket, "I'll go over and see if there's anyone who can help. You're watching Qiu Xian at home. If you hear any movement, don't wait for me. time to eat."

Qin Sang walked out of the yard and looked at the old man's hurried away figure, and suddenly knew what he wanted to see.

…

Liu family.

Five generations live under one roof, just like a big family.

At this time, dozens of families, old and young, were standing outside the old man's house, which was in sharp contrast to the deserted home of the old man and his wife.

These people gathered outside the house, looking serious and afraid to show their anger. The children also knew that the atmosphere was not right, so they stood beside the adults in an orderly manner and did not dare to mess around.

The room was silent.

Doctor Wu hasn't arrived yet.

Everyone is waiting anxiously.

at this time.

Suddenly shouts came from the room.

"Boss's wife!"

"Boss's wife! Come in quickly!"

…

The women hurriedly helped a girl with a big belly in.

There was an old man lying on the bed. His breath was extremely weak. He was breathing more out than in, but he still insisted on looking at the door with his head tilted and his lips moving, as if he wanted to say something.

The eldest daughter-in-law came in, obviously a little scared.

At this time, there was no need to pay attention to etiquette. The people beside the bed hurriedly got out of the way and grabbed the eldest daughter-in-law and took her to the bedside.

The old man's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, and his fingers moved slightly. The people next to him understood, and hurriedly grabbed the old man's hand and touched the belly of the eldest daughter-in-law.

Unexpectedly, the hand was only halfway up, and the fingers suddenly dropped weakly.

"well!"

Everyone in the room let out a long sigh.

In the corner of the room, invisible to any mortal present, stood a Taoist priest.

Qin Sang watched quietly, his eyes falling on the face of the old man who was still staring at death. He looked at the old man's eyes full of unwillingness and thought deeply in his heart.

"Two out of ninety, five generations live under the same roof, which is rare in the world. Do you still die with your eyes in peace?"

…

The old man passed away.

Liu Mansion became busy amidst the cries.

At this time, Qin Sang had already left Liu Mansion. He let go of his spiritual consciousness and scanned Xianyuan City. He found nothing, so he quickened his pace. After leaving the city, he went straight to the capital of Guyuan Kingdom.

It was already noon when we arrived at the capital on foot.

There are guards in the capital, so Qin Sang will naturally not be in trouble.

When he entered the city, he was surprised to find that the bun shop where he used to eat was still there, and he was the descendant of the shop owner.

I ordered several drawers of meat buns and devoured them.

After Qin Sang paid for the buns, he pointed to the snow piled high in the corner next to the bun shop and said, "There is a person inside."
