Chapter 186 The treasure gourd and the elixir of death

Wang Xianchang stopped when he reached the door, turned his head to look at the painting, and sighed.

"Well, since I don't blame you, senior brother, I will accept a meal from you today.

Even if you form a good relationship, it will do you some good after all! "

Tang Dongting was overjoyed just after he recovered from his shock.

He turned around, kowtowed to him a few more times, got up, wiped his face with his sleeves, and carefully led the way.

Tang Dongting was born into a wealthy family. Over the years, he had managed various affairs and made friends with officials. In Wei Hui Mansion, he was prosperous.

He is a well-rounded person who is good at dancing.

At the banquet, he accompanied Xiao Xin and flattered her.

The wine is good, the food is good, and the words are good. Wang Xianchang's face gradually brightens, and the little Taoist boy is full of praise.

He diligently offered a few drinks, and after seeing his eyes and ears burning, the atmosphere gradually became more lively.

In my heart, I was secretly relieved.

After drinking two more cups, he looked at Wang Xianchang's face and asked tentatively: "Xianchang, you said there is going to be a big epidemic in northern Henan, and you want to make medicine here to save people. I wonder what the situation will be?"

"Is there any useful place for me?"

"I also want to do something for the immortals and redeem my past..."

Wang Xian glanced at him and said nothing.

Xiao Daotong seemed to have drunk a little too much, and there was already a hint of alcohol on his face.

He said: "Now that I have found my uncle and asked for the gourd back, we can't stay here for long. When we turn around, we have to go to Beijing..."

Tang Dongting asked hurriedly: "I am just thinking about how to atone for my sins. Why don't you stay here for a few more days? What are you doing in Beijing?"

The little Taoist boy sighed: "Master said that the epidemic in July is imminent."

"Seeing that all lives are in ruins, we outsiders should do more good deeds and plant fields of blessing."

"So, when I go down the mountain this time, the first thing is to retrieve the gourd."

"Second, I want to go to the capital to buy some medicinal materials so that I can start refining the medicine as soon as possible."

Tang Dongting said hurriedly: "I wonder what kind of epidemic it is. Is it serious?"

Wang Xianchang nodded with a pitiful expression, sighed slightly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

The little Taoist boy frowned: "Except for Mr. Tang, the secret must not be leaked."

"My master has said that if the deceased sleeps on his deathbed, not even one of the people will be saved. Do you think it's serious?"

"How many people are in your family?"

"Calculate for yourself, how many can survive?"

Tang Dongting was startled for a moment, and his face turned pale for a moment.

Then, isn’t it just death?

I, can I survive by chance...

He asked in a trembling voice: "Immortal, Immortal Chief, can you do the math for me..."

Wang Xianchang glared at the little Taoist boy and said in a harsh voice: "Talk too much!"

The little Taoist boy was excited and quickly apologized to the master.

Wang Xianchang looked at Tang Dongting with compassion in his eyes.

"Mr. Tang, I'm afraid you've made a lot of bad connections over the years, right?"

"One drink and one peck, it's a predetermined decision. I can't blame others..."

Tang Dongting was shocked, pushed away the chair, and was about to kneel down.

However, Wang Xianchang held his arm and said, "Except for Mr. Tang, there is no need for this. If you do more good deeds in the future, you may not be able to change your life."

Tang Dongting's cheeks trembled: "Chief Immortal, please show me a clear path for this villain. I am willing to do good deeds."

"From now on, I will never dare to harm God again. I, I, Tang Dongting, swear to God..."

The little Taoist boy said impatiently: "What's the use of swearing?"

"It's already early April, how many days are there until July? Why did you go there so early?"

Tang Dongting was stunned. Yes, he still had three months to live.

The Tang family has three months to go before they are all exterminated. Is it still too late?

Wang Xianchang glanced at the little Taoist boy and said slightly angrily: "You have been studying Taoism for more than a hundred years, and you are still so clueless!"

"As long as a mortal has a kind heart, he will be rewarded with blessings. What's the difference between sooner or later?"

"Even Buddhists advise people to put down their butcher's knives and become Buddhas immediately. By saying this, aren't you trying to cut off Mr. Tang's good intentions?"

"What a sin!"

The little Taoist boy muttered: "He has evil thoughts towards his master today. What merit can redeem him for such a heinous crime?"

"Unless, unless he can save all these millions of living beings..."

The more Tang Dongting listened, the more frightened he became, sweating through his heavy clothes.

It wasn't until Xiao Daotong finished his last sentence that he noticed a glimmer of hope.

Like a drowning man who suddenly found a life-saving straw, he quickly knelt down and touched his head to the ground.

"Immortal, I am willing to do my best to save the people in northern Henan. I ask the Immortal to help me!"

Wang Xianchang drank another glass of wine and remained silent.

The little Taoist boy pulled him up, but Tang Dongting struggled and fell at his feet, refusing to get up.

After a while, Wang Xianchang said helplessly: "Well, my senior brother has been harassing you for many years, and I have also accepted your food and support, so I will give you a chance."

"You should donate this medicinal material!"

Tang Dongting was overjoyed and said quickly: "Chief Immortal, if you need any medicinal materials, just give me your order and I will send someone to buy them right away!"

The little Taoist boy looked disdainful: "How can it be so easy!"

"What my master prepared is a fairy elixir that brings the dead back to life."

"The medicinal materials required are extremely rare, such as nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum and thousand-year-old ginseng..."

"That's why I went to Beijing to buy. You have mortal eyes and don't know the properties of medicine. Don't be deceived. Money is not important and delaying things will be fatal!"

"what?"

When Tang Dongting heard this, his heart dropped.

What kind of medicine is this? It’s something I’ve only heard of by name but never seen before. How can this be so good!

Immortal Wang said slowly: "Although these things are rare, you can still find them in the area where the capital is concentrated."

"I have collected all the medicinal materials, and I have to return here to start making elixirs. Outside of the Tang Dynasty——"

"The villain is here!"

Tang Dongting came back to his senses, wiped off the cold sweat, and quickly agreed.

"After I go, you clean a quiet room, prepare a copper tripod, and offer my seven-treasure gourd and the elixir mother in it to warm and nourish the medicinal properties."

"Three sticks of sandalwood should be used every day to worship sincerely and never be discontinued."

"You have to do these things yourself, don't do it for others."

"Otherwise, if your merits are lost, don't blame me. Remember, remember!"

After Master Wang finished speaking, he turned to the little Taoist boy and said, "Disciple, give our Seven Treasures Gourd and the Pill Mother to Yuan Yuan."

Tang Dongting's mind couldn't turn around for a while.

He looked at the little Taoist boy innocently and said "Hey". He flicked his sleeves and the red gourd that he had been dreaming about appeared out of thin air in his palm.

The other hand made a move out of thin air, and in the palm of his hand, there was an elixir with a strong medicinal fragrance and as crystal clear as snow.

The little Taoist boy seemed hesitant.

Looking at the master: "Master, do you really want to give it to him? This pill mother only has this one..."

Wang Xianchang smiled: "Since Mr. Tang has completely changed his past, how can we not keep our words!"

He helped Tang Dongting, who was a little distracted, and said, "Except for Mr. Tang, this gourd is just fine. Even if it is lost, I can find it back."

"This elixir is very precious. There is only one."

"When the elixir is finally made, you need to use it to infuse the medicinal properties. You must not miss anything. Remember?"

Tang Dongting nodded repeatedly, and the little Taoist boy handed him the red treasure gourd and the pill.

He seemed a little worried and warned: "With this elixir, my master will be able to refine the elixir and save millions of people."

"If you dissolve it into water and drink it, it can bring people back to life. You must be careful..."

Tang Dongting held the red gourd tightly in his right hand and the elixir in his left hand. He was smiling happily and almost fainted with happiness.

While nodding vigorously, he bowed and agreed.

I feel that even if there are mountains of gold and silver in front of me, they are not as valuable as these two things.
