Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Baishi Town, which had always been quiet and peaceful, became lively again. The gossips coming out of the Liu Family Mansion once again greatly satisfied the people of Baishi Town's gossip.
First, the second young master of the Qin family disappeared, then the old lady of the Liu family was critically ill, then a mysterious expert revealed the Liu family's medicine list, and now there is news that the old lady miraculously recovered from her illness within three days.
After hearing this news, there was a lot of discussion in the streets for a while, and everyone was speculating on who the expert was who took off the medicine list.
Even Doctor Xue, who is known as the Xinglin Sage in Qianjiang City, is helpless to deal with Old Taijun's condition. This mysterious expert actually cured Old Taijun Liu's strange illness in just three days. One can only imagine the extent of his methods.
Miraculous, it is not an exaggeration to call it a wonderful rejuvenation.
Du Feiyun naturally turned a deaf ear to the rumors that were spreading outside. After returning home, he has been working hard to improve his strength.
After being suppressed by Liu Xiangtian's momentum three times that day, he realized how huge the gap was between the monks in the body refining stage and the Qi refining stage monks, so the desire for strength in his heart became stronger.
During the three days, except for eating and going to the toilet, he had been cultivating crazily and almost never stepped out of the small courtyard.
It was already late at night. After dinner, Du Feiyun did not practice immediately. Instead, he lay in bed thinking about what happened today.
Just at dinner time today, Mrs. Liu, who had just recovered from a serious illness, came to the Du family in person with her maid, and delivered a thousand taels of reward and three portions of century-old ginseng and poria to Du Feiyun.
Mrs. Liu has not been to the Du family for many years, so her visit this time was naturally a bit unexpected.
Of course, Mrs. Du was also excited and burst into tears when she saw Mrs. Liu coming in person. Mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, telling each other their pain and chatting for a long time.
While everyone was chatting, Mrs. Liu asked why Du Feiyun had such superb medical skills and was able to cure diseases that even Divine Doctor Xue was unable to cure.
Before Du Feiyun could answer, Du told the old lady with joy and pride that Du Feiyun had become a disciple of an expert and had acquired superb martial arts and medical skills.
His son has always been known as a mediocre person, but now that Du Feiyun has changed a lot, Du is naturally proud, so he proudly said this to his mother.
Du Feiyun originally didn't want to reveal his true identity and strength, but he couldn't stop his mother, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
Although he was helpless, he could not blame his mother harshly. After all, this was human nature.
First of all, my mother is proud of herself, but in my mother Du's heart, grandma is not an outsider, so these words are not impossible to say.
After learning that Du Feiyun had this adventure, Mrs. Liu was immediately surprised and praised Du Feiyun very much.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Liu explained her purpose of coming and proposed that Du Feiyun, mother and son, return to the Liu family.
However, Du Feiyun politely declined at that time.
The Liu family originally expelled the mother and son from the family, but now that so many years have passed, there has long been a rift between the two parties.
Even if Mrs. Liu disobeys Mr. Liu's orders and privately decides to let them return to the Liu family, Du Feiyun will not agree.
Seeing Du Feiyun's insistence on not agreeing, Mrs. Liu felt a little depressed. She immediately retreated to the next best thing and made another request, which was to ask Du Feiyun to participate in the clan competition between the three major families in Baishi Town that was held every ten years.
This clan competition is a competition negotiated and finalized among the three major families in Baishi Town. It is held every ten years and the young descendants of each family participate in the competition. The purpose is to encourage the younger generations of each family to practice diligently.
Originally, Du Feiyun didn't want to do anything to help the Liu family anymore, so he naturally refused Old Mrs. Liu's request. However, Old Mrs. Liu begged her hard and declared that this clan competition was related to the survival of the Liu family. Her mother Du Shi also tried to persuade her.
Du Feiyun had no choice but to think about it again.
Later, Mrs. Liu told Du Feiyun about the situation of the clan competition.
The Baishi River next to Baishi Town has plump fish and shrimps, and there are many aquatic products. It is the fat that the three major families compete for.
Therefore, the three major families negotiate and hold a clan competition every ten years to decide the control of Baishi River based on the outcome.
In the past ten years, the Baishi River has been controlled by the Liu family, and this year it is time for control to rotate again.
However, the Liu family currently does not have enough descendants. There is only one male, Liu Heng, Liu Xiangtian's son.
Moreover, this Liu Heng was born with a naughty nature, did not want to practice, and was of low strength. The other four descendants were all female members, and their abilities were mediocre. In desperation, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to beg Du Feiyun to fight on behalf of the Liu family.
Since the clan competition is to encourage the younger generations of the three major families to practice diligently, it is natural that valuable prizes are indispensable to reward the winners.
Moreover, the three major families have agreed that the treasure as the lottery should be worth at least two thousand taels. With the financial resources of the three major families, a treasure of such a weight will not break the muscles and bones, but it will not be easy either. It will also cost a lot of money.
thought.
In this year's clan competition, the Qin family took out a book on martial arts called the Splitting Tablet Palm, which is a practice technique that monks in the body-refining stage covet.
The treasure that the Qin family took out was a sword called Qiu Shui, while the treasure that the Bai family took out was a century-old natural treasure called Nine-leaf Purple Lotus.
When he heard the first two treasures, Du Feiyun was not moved yet, but when he heard the nine-leaf purple lotus, he was deeply moved.
With a calm face, he pretended to be weighing the matter carefully, and after a moment, he nodded in agreement under the expectant gaze of the old lady.
If participating in the Clan Competition is dangerous or has no benefits, he will not agree to Mrs. Liu. If there are no benefits or life is in danger, he will never help the Liu family.
The reason why he agreed to Mrs. Liu's request was mainly because he coveted the reward from the clan competition, which was the nine-leaf purple lotus that the Bai family presented!
Since the day he obtained the Lieshan Pharmacopoeia, Du Feiyun has been rummaging through the elixirs in it. One is to find elixirs that are suitable for him to refine and use at this stage, and the other is to find a good medicine that can treat his mother's serious illness.
Du Feiyun has always had only two wishes. The first is to work hard to make money so that his mother and sister can live a good life with adequate food and clothing. The second is to cure his mother's strange disease so that she will no longer suffer from the disease.
Of course, after obtaining the Nine Dragon Cauldron, he had one more wish, which was to work hard to improve his own strength and embark on the road to immortality.
My mother's illness is very strange, and the cause has not been found out for so many years. Many doctors have come to the same conclusion after looking at it, that is, my mother was born with cold body and excessive yin energy.
Due to the excessive coldness in her body, Du Shi's body was very weak and she was afraid of the cold. The slightest change in the weather caused unbearable pain, and her whole body was as cold as falling into an ice cellar.
Du Feiyun rummaged through the Lieshan Pharmacopoeia for a long time and saw many kinds of elixirs suitable for treating stagnation of yin energy in the body, or after the yin poisonous energy enters the body. However, most of them are taken by monks above the innate stage.
Yes, he can't refine it for the time being, and Du Shi can't take it either.
It is said that hard work pays off. For a whole month, Du Feiyun went through almost the entire Lieshan Pharmacopoeia and finally found an elixir that could barely be refined and taken.
This elixir is called Chiyundan, which is yang. It is strong and pure in yang yet soft, and can resolve the stagnant yin and cold energy in the body.
And more importantly, he could barely refine this elixir, and Du Shi could also take it, but the ingredients listed in the elixir were very rare and difficult to find.
This elixir may not be able to cure Du Shi's strange disease, but it can effectively resolve the stagnant cold and cold air in her body, temporarily relieve the condition and reduce the pain.
Ever since he found the recipe for Red Cloud Pill, Du Feiyun has always kept it in mind, memorizing all the required materials, herbs and refining techniques.
The nine-leaf purple lotus the Bai family brought out this time happened to be one of the thirty-six medicinal materials needed to refine Red Cloud Pill!
It is precisely because of this that Du Feiyun decided to participate in the clan competition without hesitation when he heard about the Nine-leaf Purple Lotus. Not only did he have to participate in the clan competition, but he also had to try his best to win, especially the Nine-leaf Purple Lotus.
