Immortal, the temptation of the elixir made the shopkeeper greedy, and if he wanted a big reward, there must be a brave man, so he asked someone to fetch the elixir for him.
"Give me 100 taels of silver, and I will go back to the Heavenly Palace for you. If you get the elixir, you can give me another 900 taels." An idle man smiled, and agreed without fear of death.
But at this time the old man suddenly said in surprise: "Oh, it's not good, my rope was discovered by the immortal, and I saw him looking at us along the rope in the heavenly palace. No, I have to take the rope back, or I will suffer To God's wrath."
Immediately, he hurriedly tugged on the rope to take it back.
"No, I have to go to the Heavenly Palace." The idle man grabbed the old man's hand and stared at him.
The 100 taels of silver in hand can't fly away.
"No, it must be taken back, otherwise disaster will be imminent." The old man said in a panic.
During the dispute, the rope shook violently again, and immediately after that, many pills fell from the sky like rain.
"Oh, it's the immortal who saw us eager to ask for medicine and dropped the elixir." The old man pushed the idler away again, and picked up the elixir on the ground.
Hearing that it was the elixir dropped by the immortal, the eyes of the other watching people were hot, and they immediately ignored other things, frantically picking up the elixir, but immediately hid the ones they found.Fear of being taken away by others.
"Eldest young master, the elixir has fallen, and I picked up a few for the young master." The escort who accompanied him said excitedly, but at this time he still did not forget to respect Li Xiuyuan.
These two dart heads are indeed quick-witted.
Li Xiuyuan said with a smile; "Picking up any elixir is just a blindfold. If there is really an elixir of immortality in the world, it's not our turn to pick it up, so don't waste this time, just watch the fun, don't worry about it because Greedy and lost his normal, this old man is watching their jokes right now."
Chapter 6 Nineteen
A trick is a trick because a trick is fake.
Fake things, no matter how real they are, are still fake.
It's not that most people don't know this, but their greed blinds their reason, so they ignore the truth of the matter and believe everything they see and hear.Even though deep down I knew it was a lie.
Shen Xiansuo's tricks are indeed good.
Because this is no longer an ordinary trick, but contains the tricks of Taoism.
Therefore, in order to perform such tricks, one must have some cultivation skills. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that such tricks will not be widely spread.
The common people who watched the excitement before saw the elixir falling from the sky. Whether it was ordinary people or high-ranking officials, they all bent down on the ground one by one, bumping into me, I bumping into you, frantically looking for the fallen elixir.
It's strange to say that the elixir that fell from the sky is obviously densely packed, but when it falls to the ground to look for it, there are very few.
Some people found it, and they were very happy, but more people didn't find it, and they were sweating profusely.
"The trick that this old man really wants to perform is probably not the fairy rope, but to tease everyone, and the most ingenious thing is that he didn't encourage any of the people to pick up the elixir, but those people were lured by greed, and they were willing to lie on the ground Picking up pills." Li Xiuyuan saw all this in his eyes.
Looking around, he was the only one who was indifferent when the elixir landed.
A few subordinates around him were also very excited, but he pointed it out.
"Eldest young master, this elixir is not necessarily fake, I'd better pick up a few and bring them back, if it is real, wouldn't it be a missed fairy fate?"
The head of the bodyguard next to him was still very excited. Seeing how crazy the others were, he couldn't hold back even with Li Xiuyuan's suggestion.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled: "A fake is a fake, no matter how tempted you are, it will not become true. If you are tempted, go pick it up. If you really picked up the elixir, you don't need to give it to me. Keep it for yourself." , let’s see if you will become light and healthy after eating it, and become immortals?”
"This, this..." The two escorts looked hesitant, they wanted to pick it up, but they didn't want to disobey the young master's wishes.
Finally, after hesitating for a while, I had to give up.
Because the elixir that fell from the sky seems to have been picked up, it is too late even if you want to do it now.
But at this moment, Li Xiuyuan was staring at the old man who played tricks.
But he saw that the old man had already packed his things at some point, carrying two big suitcases slowly through the crowd, preparing to leave, with a smile on his face, as if he was proud of himself for playing tricks on everyone.
But now everyone was busy picking up the elixir, and they didn't even notice that the old man who played tricks left.
Perhaps the old man had already disappeared without a trace after they finished picking up the elixir.
"Follow me." Li Xiuyuan called out, and strode through the crowd to catch up.
The old man carrying the burden hummed a ditty as he walked. He didn't take the avenues with many people, but chose small paths with few people. It is impossible to keep up with this old man.
But Li Xiuyuan was a little curious about this old man.
"This is not an ordinary person who plays tricks. His steps and direction are in line with Taoist spells. It seems random. In fact, dozens of people may not be able to follow him."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, stopped and said: "You wait for me here for a while, I will come as soon as I go."
"Yes, my master." Wu Xiangweng answered in a low voice.
With one step, Li Xiuyuan cast the magic that shrinks the ground to an inch. Coupled with the wall penetration technique, he came to an alley in a few steps.
The old man who played tricks just walked into this alley when he saw Li Xiuyuan walking towards him, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes narrowed, and his short body trembled slightly.
"My father-in-law performed a good trick. If I'm not mistaken, the Immortal Suo just now is both a trick and a spell. It should be a combination of blindness and cloud pulling, but it has been simplified a lot. It can be performed without any skills. Ordinary people can learn it after more than ten years of practice. It’s just that I’m a little surprised, why did the old man leave in a hurry before he performed the spell and asked others for rewards?”
Li Xiuyuan said with a smile; "I watched the old man's tricks and thought they were wonderful, so I have to give the reward."
After speaking, he took out a silver coin and threw it at the old man.
The old man stretched out his hand to pick it up, and he said with a smile: "This young master is indeed an extraordinary person who can see through my tricks, but what this old man is performing is not a trick, but just donating pills in the name of tricks to cure diseases and save people. It’s not about rewards, what I want is the merits and blessings of helping the world and saving the people, the young master doesn’t need the old man’s pills, so the old man will not hesitate to accept the money.”
"Oh, the old man is actually a practitioner? What he seeks are merits and blessings? In this way, the elixir is not useless?" Li Xiuyuan said with a bit of a strange look.
The old man smiled and said: "Of course, the old man's pills are refined from all kinds of mountain herbs, which can cure wind and cold, bruises, and knife wounds... Although they can't live forever, they can cure diseases and save lives. Next, and the pills given are all poor people, if you don’t believe me, you can go back and see if those rich and noble people can pick up a pill.”
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but praise when he heard the words: "The old man has a kind heart. For the rich and the rich, ordinary injuries can be cured by a doctor once, but for the poor people, it is no less than a catastrophe. Meidanwan can save a poor family at a critical moment by donating it through this method, this is a matter of immeasurable merit, I admire, admire."
Hearing what the old man said, he couldn't help being a little awed.
What is a man of virtue, this is a man of virtue.
"Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it, it's just for the sake of cultivation, and there is also selfishness." The old man stroked his beard and smiled, with a humble and polite look.
"If this son has nothing else to do, I will leave first. I have already given away the medicine in the capital. Now I am going back to the mountains to collect medicine and refine it. After the preparations are complete, I will continue to donate. Pills, cure diseases and save lives."
After speaking, he continued to carry the burden and prepared to turn around and leave.
Li Xiuyuan took a deep look at him at this moment, and said slowly: "Why do old friends rush to leave so soon after meeting each other, He Shou Wu Jing..."
"Fuck you Li Xiuyuan, you can still recognize me after I've become like this?"
"Whoa~!"
The old man who just picked up the burden immediately threw the burden on the ground without saying a word, then sank into the ground with a whoosh, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.
