Evergreen Immortal
Chapter 193: Five Hundred Years of Life
Send a book?
Senior Sister Yao?
Li Rui's mind turned quickly and he immediately figured out the whole story.
After Yao Xue left Qinghe.
She would write to him from time to time, and Li Rui would reply to every letter.
After all, he heard that the owner of the Wenxian Tower became the new supervisor, and the old Taoist Zhang Gu and his apprentice moved into the imperial city.
Note.
It is the imperial city, not the capital.
The only people who can live in the imperial city are the royal relatives and the palace maids and eunuchs. The fact that Yao Xue and the other two can live in the imperial city shows how much the emperor favors the owner of the Wenxian Tower.
Of course, such a thigh must be held tightly, and the letters written must be replied.
Li Rui looked at the book in the young man's hand.
"Xianqi Yin"
Speechless.
In the letter, Li Rui used the search for immortals and asking for the way as a guide to try to learn more about immortals and immortal courts from Yao Xue.
After all, the books in the Anningwei arsenal are scattered travel notes, which are no different from myths in nature.
But the Wenxianlou is quite different. It is a sect that was established specifically for the purpose of seeking immortality, and it must have done some research on this.
And Yao Xue must have learned a lot more than him when she went to the Imperial Observatory, and the human resources are there.
Unexpectedly.
Yao Xue actually asked someone to bring the book to him from the capital.
Xianqi Yin, as the name suggests, is a book about immortality.
"Thank you, Mr. Fu."
"It's just a little effort. Senior Sister Yao asked me to say hello to you on her behalf."
"Miss Yao is thoughtful."
Li Rui smiled faintly.
It seems that Yao Xue's inner demon has been completely eradicated, otherwise she would not dare to interact with her inner demon.
Taking the book with both hands, Li Rui invited Fu Huan into the house: "Mr. Fu, it's so cold at night, come in and have a cup of hot tea."
"Then. Sorry for bothering you."
Fu Huan likes quietness and instinctively wants to refuse.
But Li Rui was someone Yao Xue personally ordered after all, so he couldn't just turn down the favor the first time they met.
The owner of Wenxian Tower is now his owner, and the three people in Wenxian Tower have become very high in the Imperial Observatory, so he has to pay attention to it.
Walk into the house.
Li Rui personally brewed a pot of tea for Fu Huan.
Wisps of white smoke rose from the teacup.
Fu Huan took a sip and his eyes lit up: "Good tea!"
It was not astringent at first, and then a slight sweetness appeared on the tip of the tongue. It was not as sweet as white sugar or brown sugar, but it was refreshing.
It was very different from the tea he drank in the capital.
Li Rui laughed: "It's good that Lord Fu likes it. It's just some wild tea produced locally."
Wild tea?
Of course not.
If wild tea could make Si Chen, a astronomical observatory from the capital who was used to the world, look up to it, then the tea pickers in Qinghe would have become rich overnight, and there would be no one day full and one day hungry.
This tea was specially brought from southern Xinjiang by him.
The journey from southern Xinjiang to the capital is long, and it is usually shipped out as tribute.
Unless you are a prince of the royal family, you may not be able to drink this tea in the capital.
Li Rui got some tea because of the geographical proximity, and used it to entertain people from the north.
If you want to entertain people well, you have to do it in normal times.
Collect more tea in normal times, so that you will not be at a loss when the time comes.
With more methods, you will always be able to use them.
I am afraid that you will run out of tricks.
Fu Huan liked it more and more, and before he knew it, the cup was empty.
He was a little embarrassed.
People of noble status should taste tea lightly. Tea tasting is not drinking tea. How can you drink it like those vulgar country people?
It's too indecent.
Fu Huan was born in an aristocratic family, and he felt rude to do such a thing.
Li Rui certainly saw the abnormality on Fu Huan's face, but he didn't point it out. He just smiled and added another cup as if nothing had happened.
"Young man."
Fu Huan looked like a Taoist who had been studying alchemy in the Imperial Observatory for many years and rarely went out.
Not very experienced in the world.
Li Rui then spoke: "Master Fu, did you come to Qinghe this time to cause chaos?"
Fu Huan shook his head: "Master Li is also a member of the An Ning Guard, so I won't hide it. I came here for your army's defense of Gao Zhen."
Li Rui hurriedly stopped: "It's a secret, Master Fu, you don't have to tell me."
"Master Li is really righteous."
Fu Huan couldn't help but admire Li Rui a little.
There are not many people who can keep their curiosity.
He knew that the whole An Ning Guard was now attracted by the Gao Zhen incident, and they must want to know the details of the case.
On the one hand, it is indeed a big deal for the An Ning Guard, and on the other hand, if Gao Zhen is really dead, there are many interests involved.
Fu Huan is not very experienced in the world, but he is very smart.
He couldn't help but look up to the old man Li Rui.
Li Rui turned to talk to Fu Huan about the Wenxian Tower.
He might be the only person in Anningwei who doesn't care about the details of Gao Zhen's case.
Gao Zhen was killed by him.
What's the point of knowing anything?
It's enough to know that Cao Wei and others are still investigating.
Compared with the case, Fu Huan doesn't feel any pressure when talking about the Imperial Observatory and the Wenxian Tower.
The Imperial Observatory is mysterious to the outside world because the alchemists of the Imperial Observatory rarely show up in front of outsiders. In fact, there is nothing to keep secret.
Wenxian Tower has now become a well-known sect, no longer the hidden sect it used to be.
There is nothing to hide.
Just treat it as a casual chat, and the atmosphere will naturally become relaxed.
It's a common thing for Fu Huan.
But for Li Rui, it's all very strange.
His knowledge of the Imperial Observatory was limited to paper. This time, he finally met an official from the Imperial Observatory, and because of Yao Xue's relationship, he was willing to talk to him more. Of course, he would not miss such an opportunity.
"Lord Li, in fact, the Imperial Observatory is not as mysterious as you say."
"It's nothing more than the wonderful use of martial arts. It's just that martial artists focus on using true qi to kill, while alchemists are more inclined to use true qi to move heaven and earth, imitating the methods of ancient cultivators."
When talking about ancient cultivators, Fu Huan's face was full of yearning.
The ancient spiritual energy has not completely dissipated, and the gates of the fairy court are wide open.
The ninth-grade cultivator can call on the qi of heaven and earth, unlike now, you must reach the seventh-grade willow tendons to cultivate martial arts true qi similar to the qi of cultivation by yourself.
Moreover, the true qi cultivated by oneself alone cannot be compared with the huge spiritual energy of heaven and earth in terms of quantity.
Li Rui's heart moved slightly.
"Does the Imperial Observatory have a method to achieve longevity?"
He was talking about longevity, not immortality.
Because he knew that there was no method to achieve immortality in the world. If there was, then the Yu Kingdom would not have so many emperors, but only one.
Fu Huan shook his head:
"Life span is determined by heaven, there is no longevity method in the world."
Li Rui: "Why does Lord Fu say so? I don't think there are many health-preserving exercises in the world."
Fu Huan shook his head again:
"Strengthening the body to prolong life is itself a fallacy of ordinary people. The predecessors of the Imperial Observatory have done experiments. A mortal who does not practice martial arts can only live for two hundred years at most, even if he nourishes himself with the best spiritual medicine and strengthens his body with the best health-preserving exercises. This is the maximum life span of ordinary people."
"We warriors can prolong our lives because our true qi reverses our fate, which can prolong our lives."
"But now that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is dissipating, the power of one person is ultimately limited. Living for five hundred years is the maximum life span of a warrior."
"Exercises cannot prolong life. What can prolong life is actually true qi, which is related to the exercises, but not the main reason."
Li Rui suddenly felt novel.
It is worthy of being the Imperial Observatory. It actually turned such a mysterious thing into an experiment in the previous life and a theoretical thing.
"Five hundred years is the maximum lifespan."
Listening to Fu Huan's output, Li Rui's heart moved slightly.
Once entering the willow tendons, ordinary warriors can increase their lifespan by fifty years.
After entering the Dragon Gate, they can increase their lifespan by another half a century.
The lifespan of ordinary Dragon Gate warriors has reached a terrifying three decades.
Li Rui can even live for more than two hundred years in one breath.
For ordinary people, this is equivalent to living a second life.
But lifespan will not increase infinitely, and it will not even increase at an accelerated rate.
The first-grade supreme can only live for five hundred years. Obviously, it is because the effect of increasing lifespan is more obvious when the true qi is first obtained. The effect is not so strong as time goes by.
But. Li Rui vaguely feels that Changchun Gong is different.
It seems to be able to break the limit of lifespan.
As they chatted, the two talked about Qu Chengfeng again.
"Master Fu, I wonder how the little brother Qu is doing now, and whether the Ghost Sect has left any damage?"
Speaking of Qu Chengfeng.
Fu Huan's eyes actually showed admiration:
"Master Li, you don't know that Junior Brother Qu is a rare genius in the Imperial Observatory in a thousand years. He may be the next director."
Li Rui raised his eyebrows.
Genius in the art of alchemy?
This is completely different from the Qu Chengfeng in his impression. Although he had only known him for a short time before, Li Rui thought he was a good judge of people. How could such a mediocre and playboy suddenly change so much?
Strange!
It is understood that Qu Chengfeng entered the eighth rank at the age of sixteen or seventeen. It's not bad, but compared with the heroes in the world, he is not really a genius.
But Fu Huan, a seventh rank, a child of a proper family, actually admired Qu Chengfeng, an eighth rank, which was really strange.
Fu Huan saw the doubt in Li Rui's eyes and explained:
"Master Li, you don't know that after Junior Brother Qu encountered a great disaster, he was like a person who had opened his mind. Even Master Jianzheng looked at him favorably."
"Once in a thousand years is the evaluation given by Master Jianzheng."
Once in a thousand years.
You have to know that it has only been a few thousand years since the establishment of the Yu Kingdom.
Doesn't it mean that Qu Chengfeng's qualifications can be ranked in the top three in the history of the Yu Kingdom?
That's too scary.
"What kind of adventure did Qu Chengfeng experience?"
Unconsciously, he said the question in his heart.
Fu Huan was also very curious about this.
But I only heard that Qu Chengfeng forgot everything about the days he was missing after he went back.
After checking, Master Jianzheng didn't say anything.
The two chatted for a while, and it was already dark.
Fu Huan said goodbye and left.
Li Rui saw Fu Huan out the door, and then returned to the room.
He still walked a large circle of Qi before going to bed.
Three days later in the morning.
Li Rui was on his way to the Benhu Cavalry Camp as usual.
He had just walked halfway.
He saw Ge Hong and fifty people from the Wuzi Camp hurriedly walking out of the camp.
"Could it be that something happened?"
Li Rui quickly caught up with Ge Hong.
"Brother Ge, what happened?"
Ge Hong turned his head and saw that it was Li Rui. He kept walking and said:
"It was the people from the Ministry of Justice."
"They were attacked by a mysterious strong man while investigating a case."
