Holding an ordinary script, pretending to be a god in various worlds

Queen Ma opened it as she was told. The box was divided into two layers. The first layer was covered with soft brocade, on which was placed a round bead, which was very strange and emitted a hazy and crystal light.

The bright pearl is covered with dust in the box, but it moves people's heart when it sees the light of day.

All the court officials stared at the strange pearl with wide eyes, their hearts in turmoil.

What is this? It looks like a pearl. Even the most beautiful pearl in the world would not be so gorgeous.

Minister A: It should be a precious pearl of the Dragon King, which was snatched away by this wanton demon fairy and given to the benefactor.

Minister B: Pills! Pills, definitely pills. Immortal Liu is going to give Queen Ma a great fortune!

C: Maybe it’s just an ordinary pearl…

These three ideas summarize the thoughts of most people, of course the last one is in the minority.

No way, it's too embarrassing that Liu Xian would only give one pearl.

Queen Ma was also a little surprised. She looked up at Liu Xian and saw Liu Xian reaching out to pinch the beads. A gorgeous halo was projected on her snow-white skin, which was inexplicably charming and beautiful.

Ding, Liu Xian tapped the beads lightly with her fingertips, making a sound like jade breaking, and she said:

"Do you know, benefactor, how many levels do demons have to go through in their training?"

She obviously didn't really want to ask. The next second, Liu Xian answered her own question, chanting softly:

"Awakening of wisdom is the first stage, transforming from an ignorant beast into a being with wisdom. Only one in ten thousand beasts has this opportunity."

Everyone present was listening attentively, not daring to speak out to disturb them. How monsters practiced cultivation aroused great interest among the crowd.

"After awakening wisdom, one must guide the moonlight and walk on the path of cultivation. This is a slow and arduous process that no one can avoid.

However, those who are gifted or have extraordinary bloodline inheritance can cross over in a short time, and the rest can only hope that time will wash away and their wisdom will accumulate to understand the method of guidance. "

Many people felt sympathetic when they heard this. How come being a monster also requires talent and bloodline, just like humans?

Bad review!

Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself that both humans and demons have seven emotions and six desires, so of course there are differences in levels. It seems absurd but it is actually reasonable.

However, he looked at Liu Xian. What did these have to do with the beads she gave to Queen Ma?

Ling Xiao didn't want to keep people in suspense and quickly continued:

"Those who can draw in the moonlight and develop magical powers can be called little demons. The rest is to continue to cultivate magical powers and spells. The next most critical step is to survive the thunder tribulation and develop a human form."

"It is extremely difficult to survive a thunder tribulation, so many monsters refuse to transform into humans, and try to delay the arrival of the tribulation, and just accumulate magic power. Such monsters are nothing but fools."

Liu Xian made a sarcastic comment about the monsters who dared not to cross the calamity, and Queen Ma responded gently:

"Liu Xian is definitely not one of this generation."

"of course."

She casually affirmed Queen Ma's words, as if she felt that this experience, which she could be proud of, was not worth mentioning.

"After a demon has cultivated into a human form, it can be considered a person. At this time, they may dig out their own bloodline to return to their ancestors, or become disciples of Buddhism and Taoism, practice the way of immortality, or even seek the way of the gods."

It turns out that the monster has so many paths to take. The one Liu Xian has chosen now is its only chance of survival. I wonder which path it took before.

A thought flashed through Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

Suddenly, Liu Xian propped up her face with her hands, and her voice seemed to come from a distant breeze, vague and melancholy:

"As monsters, we practice cultivation, and every step is a disaster. After going through the thunder disaster, there are still all kinds of strange disasters. Countless people fall on the road.

This bead is the inner elixir that one of my predecessors left behind after overcoming the tribulation!"

The concept that monsters have inner elixirs only appeared in the modern Republic of China. In the early Ming Dynasty, this term could only make people think of Taoism.

Taoism has the Neidan School, which is a method of practice for Taoist disciples. It regards the human body as an indestructible golden elixir and practices cultivation through it.

In contrast, external elixir is the common method of refining elixir in a furnace.

From this point of view, it is not difficult to understand the monster's inner elixir. Even if you don't understand anything, you know one thing - this inner elixir is a good thing!

Liu Xian’s predecessor must have been at least a great demon that transformed into a human form. Could the inner elixir it left behind be an ordinary thing?

There were hundreds of people in the hall, from the emperor to the minor official sitting at the gate, their eyes lit up at this moment, staring intently at the beads rolling on Liu Xian's fingertips.

Perhaps Liu Xian noticed their eager eyes, so she handed the "Inner Pill" to Queen Ma and waved her hand:

"Keep it safe."

Empress Ma was very embracing, not at all like her annoying husband who was impatient. She held the ribbon in her hand with a smile.

"Liu Xian gave me such a valuable relic from my predecessor. I am so kind to him."

"Oh, I don't recognize this senior either. The relic was found in the treasure house of a demon king when I killed him before. I call him senior because we are all white snake demons and he died early."

Liu Xian said to Queen Ma in surprise, and she seemed to be choked and seemed to remember something:

“This inner elixir doesn’t have much effect. After wearing it, you can be immune to all poisons, snakes, ants and poisonous insects will retreat from the room you live in, and your body will be warm in winter and cool in summer.

And if you wear it for a long time, it can improve your appearance and perhaps even prolong your life, right?"

Finally, he had some doubts, because Ling Xiao himself was not quite sure whether this "inner elixir" really came from the snake demon.

It's her, the white snake.

The scales that Ling Xiao shed contained all of her previous powers, which were referred to as evil powers. These scales could not be discarded casually.

Otherwise, after many years, the style of Ming Dynasty might suddenly change...

Tiandao urgently warned Ling Xiao not to litter. OK, Ling Xiao began to sort the garbage, taking the essence and discarding the dross.

Considering that the benefits should not be wasted, Ling Xiao added some whitening pills or other products to wrap it up, and a "inner elixir" of excellent appearance appeared.

Giving it to the Queen can not only disgust Heaven, but also ease the relationship between the royal family and Liu Xian and show one's friendship. Why not do it?

Here, hearing what Liu Xian said about the effects of the inner elixir, Queen Ma subconsciously tightened the beads.

Apart from anything else, the fact that he was immune to all poisons was enough to drive people crazy. The next dynasty had a funny rule that the emperor could only take a dish three times to prevent anyone from poisoning it.

In addition, throughout the dynasties, nobles had to have their food tasted by others first because they were afraid of being poisoned.

Other things like making people more beautiful and making snakes and insects retreat away are also very attractive.

It also prolongs life!

No matter how much the ministers wanted it, there was nothing they could do. Zhu Yuanzhang’s idea was very simple: the queen was one with him, and what she had equaled what he had.

During this Qianqiu Festival, the gifts received were better than the last. Zhu Yuanzhang was a little tempted and wondered whether he should hold more banquets to receive gifts.

He has many sons and daughters, and they have birthdays every month...

"There are gifts below, take a look," Liu Xian suddenly said.

Queen Ma was stunned that there was actually a gift. She thought that this inner elixir was already extremely precious. Thinking of this, Queen Ma felt inexplicably moved.

When they opened the lower layer, to everyone's surprise, there was a branch of peach blossom in full bloom.

It is the peach blossom in winter.

Liu Xian picked up the flower branch with a smile:

"Peach blossoms have a very good meaning for women. I happened to be in a spiritual journey and saw a peach tree in full bloom next to a hot spring in the mountains. I picked a branch for you."
