It seems that the legend is true. This forest existed in the Sui Dynasty, Lei Hong whispered.
If someone had said this before entering the Immortal Forest, Leihong would probably think he was crazy. More than 1,500 years have passed since the Sui Dynasty. It is hard to say whether this place existed before, let alone the existence of this forest.
.
Now, Lei Hong will definitely not think that way.
Because he now has conclusive, ready-made evidence. This evidence is that he found words on the stone bed, which were carved with a knife. Although the handwriting is weathered, the general meaning of the person who carved the words can be clearly understood.
It turned out that Lei Hong found the bones on the stone bed. In order to see if he found anything else, he boldly walked towards the stone bed. As a result, he found that the stone slabs around the stone bed were covered with many words. After about half an hour, Lei Hong
After browsing, I finally found out who the person on the bed was, why and how he came to this cliff cave.
This man's name was Liu Mingyuan, a native of the Sui Dynasty. He was good at medicine. He studied under Chao Yuanfang, a famous doctor in the Sui Dynasty. He was especially outstanding in health care and conditioning. At that time, many powerful officials in the court and wealthy people asked him for health care medicine. His father
He was Liu Zilong, a general of the Sui Dynasty. In the eighth year of the Great Cause (612), Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty became extremely weak due to being indulged in the harem. He announced the results to the world and spent a lot of money to find talented people and strangers in order to live a long life and strengthen his body.
It's a body elixir, but no one cares about it.
Because Yang Guang was cruel and murderous by nature, courtiers would bid farewell to their wives and children in tears when they went out to attend court, not knowing whether they would never return.
Liu Mingyuan's enemies suggested to the court that Liu Mingyuan could create the elixir for immortality and physical fitness. For fear of losing his head, everyone in the court agreed.
Liu Mingyuan knew where the immortality pill could be found in the world. It could only lead to longevity, but it could not prevent aging. But to live longer, different medicines must be combined to prolong the aging of body organs and functions as much as possible, but you can't do it.
Don't do it.
He carefully analyzed Yang Guang's daily life, took pulse diagnosis, and determined that the disease was attributed to the kidneys.
"The kidney is the innate root" that stores the essence of reproduction and the five internal organs. It governs water, bones, and hair. People with strong kidney qi have bright ears and eyesight, strong digestion and absorption, strong energy, straight necks and bright skin. Therefore, you can nourish your kidneys well.
Delaying the time of organ failure means longevity.
As an emperor, Yang Guang had many concubines in the harem. Even if his body recovered for a while, it would return to its original state over time. If he wanted to maintain the long-term effect, he must use wild and precious medicinal materials, such as Ganoderma lucidum, Salvia miltiorrhiza and other essential medicinal materials, from the roots.
Nourishing.
Liu Mingyuan then searched for medicine everywhere. When he arrived at Daofu of the Sui Dynasty (now Daoxian County), he was chased by his father Liu Zilong's enemy Wang Shichong, who was also a general of the Sui Dynasty. He was surrounded at Zhuifengkou and was injured and fell off a cliff. Fortunately, he was killed.
Blocked by the big trees on the cliff, I entered this place and stayed here forever.
From the carvings on Liu Mingyuan's stone bed, Lei Hong knew that the place where he was now should be called Zhuifengkou in the Sui Dynasty.
The stone carving not only introduces why Liu Mingyuan came here, but also specifically mentions the tree at the entrance of the cave that has fruit and a light fragrance from its trunk. It is called the Wulong tree. The fruit is Wulong fruit, which is a rare species recorded in ancient books.
As a traditional Chinese medicinal material, the light fragrance emitted by the tree not only repels mosquitoes and insects, but the water boiled from the bark is particularly effective against neurasthenia and stroke.
The most valuable one is the dragon fruit. Both the pulp and the juice of the dragon fruit have unique effects, especially in enhancing human physique.
The pulp can be dried directly and combined with other tonic medicinal materials to make juice and take it, preferably Ganoderma lucidum, Salvia miltiorrhiza and other effective medicinal materials.
Juice is particularly effective for people who practice martial arts, as it can improve internal energy. Juice can be inhaled raw, but only by people with good physical fitness and a certain level of martial arts. People with average physical fitness should be cautious. The juice can be stored in a sealed container at low temperature.
This discovery made Lei Hong very happy.
What surprised Lei Hong even more was that Liu Mingyuan also gave a general introduction to the Zhuifengkou valley. In fact, it is not as unfathomable as Lei Hong thought. Due to the heavy moisture at the bottom of the valley, it causes rain and fog all year round. From top to bottom, it looks like
It is bottomless, and its actual height is about a hundred feet. Using the vines outside the wall as tools, you can reach the bottom of the valley.
No wonder the cave where Liu Mingyuan is located is as smooth and orderly as a home. It seems that he wants to stay away from the world. This may be called a hermit.
There is a small wooden box next to Liu Mingyuan's skeleton, which contains a book and a dagger. The dagger is about 10cm long.
The characters in the book are very strange. They are obviously different from the characters engraved by Liu Mingyuan, and they are also bigger, but I just don’t recognize them. Some strokes are long, some are short, and they are slanted and look awkward. Lei Hong is too lazy to write them.
deal with it;
At that time, this dagger interested Lei Hong. Judging from the time, this dagger should have a history of more than a thousand years, but the blade still looked sharp, and there was no trace of rust on the entire blade or scabbard.
Click, Leihong stroked the stone bench next to him with a little force, and the stone fell with the sound. This made Leihong fall in love with the knife even more. Could it be that this is the legendary way of cutting iron like clay?
………….
Leihong put down the vines outside the cave entrance again, restored them to their original shape, and returned to the outside.
I came under the Wulong tree, took out a Wulong fruit, made a small opening with a knife, and took a few sips. It was good, very refreshing, but a little astringent.
A few minutes later, Lei Hong noticed a flow of heat in his lower abdomen. Slowly, the heat seemed to flow throughout his body with the blood, and he felt very hot.
How could this happen? It wouldn't have heated up the meridians in the body.
Lei Hong felt more and more uncomfortable, so he went through Tai Chi and other martial arts routines in the cave.
Strangely, Lei Hong felt that as he performed his routine, the heat was slowly easing away. The only different feeling was that the force he used was much stronger than before.
Bang, a stone the size of a fist was kicked against the wall by Lei Hong, and an obvious concave block immediately appeared on the wall. How could there be such a strong force, and there was no feeling in his feet? This would have been impossible before
Do it.
Dragon fruit? Yes, it’s the juice of dragon fruit.
Looking at the five dragon fruits, then at the two Ganoderma lucidum plants at the entrance of the cave, and then at the hollow on the wall, Lei Hong felt more and more like he was dreaming. Why did he feel like the legendary character in Jin Yong's novel, with so many adventures?
He pinched his hand hard and it hurt. This was not a feeling, this was a real thing.
Lei Hong has been in this cave for a long time, and is ready to leave. Now that he knows how to get out, and his body has almost recovered, he has just started a beautiful life in the world. He does not want to live here forever like Liu Mingyuan.
Following the method Liu Mingyuan said, Lei Hong picked up the dagger and went outside the cave, looking for the roots of the vines, and cut off more than a dozen vines in succession. Yes, the vines were thick and long, about two thumbs thick, and he pulled them hard.
Each vine is about 10 meters long. To ensure the firmness, Leihong repeatedly tightened the knots of the vines.
After the preparations were completed, Leihong came to the entrance of the cave and carefully removed the two Ganoderma lucidum plants. In order to prevent damage, he also woven a small spherical cage with vine branches and placed the Ganoderma lucidum inside.
Although no one went out, Lei Hong had plans for the two Ganoderma lucidum.
Ten of the five dragon fruits on the five dragon tree were also removed by Leihong. There were still a dozen more five dragon fruits on them. They were too small. It is estimated that they had not yet produced juice when they were removed, so they were allowed to continue to grow. Later, they removed the five dragon fruits from the five dragon tree.
Take a few pieces of bark from the tree and put them together with the dragon fruit in the bag left by the Fuso people.
