Longevity: The Flawless Dream

There is a saying in Longsu that all leisure activities in the world include burning incense, ordering tea, hanging paintings, and arranging flowers, and burning incense is the most important.

There is a saying in Longsu that Hexiang must first consider the use and taste of the spices, and then determine the monarch, minister, assistant, and envoy according to the deduction of the five lucks and six qi, the five elements, and the deduction of the heavenly stems and earthly branches.For incense with special functions such as Lingxu incense, it is necessary to follow the solar terms, dates, and hours to achieve its full effect.After refining honey, calcining charcoal, sautéing incense, smashing incense, harvesting incense, and storing, the whole process is considered complete.

Long Su also said that when burning incense, one should be clean physically and mentally, with elegant clothes and clean hands, especially with no filth in the hands.Try not to speak, even if you have to speak softly.Movements should be calm and steady, elegant and introverted, and avoid frivolous and flamboyant behavior.The mentality should be humble and peaceful, as quiet as water.

Lian Wuxia listened submissively, maybe it was an illusion, but she always felt that Senior Shulou glanced at her clothes when he said "clean clothes", with strange eyes.However, before she could ponder the meaning carefully, he had already turned back, shaking the amethyst jade bone fan and counting slowly: "People of the three religions all love incense. People from the Confucianism sect rubbish on the window and read it at night with a camplight." Burning incense can ward off sleeping demons; when the moon is waning, when the interest is bleak, burning incense can relax the mind; and when sitting in the rain with the windows closed, taking a nap, studying books on the case, and sipping tea, light a stove Fragrance, but you can see that the fragrance is fragrant and fragrant, faintly lingering around the curtains, how different is it from the Emperor Xihuang! Therefore, Confucianists cannot live without this king for a day."

"Sakyamuni Buddha likes to talk about the majesty of the Pure Land with incense. According to legend, when the Buddha preached, a wonderful fragrance emanated from the pores of his body, diffused the three worlds and ten directions, and made all living beings happy. And the Buddhist laymen who practiced carefully , its heart produces precious incense. Besides, it is necessary to use incense to make offerings to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and to burn incense before reciting sutras and practicing Dharma. Although there are no elaborate and complicated rules like Confucianism, there is still a realm of wonder and emptiness." Long Su flickered Shaking his fan, he glanced at Lian Wuxia, "As for the fragrance of Taoism..."

Lian Wuxia washed his ears and waited to listen.

Long Su smiled slightly, and looked away: "Incense is also used in Taoism, in rituals of fasting and sacrificial rituals, in purifying the body and mind, and in making offerings to the gods—it's a pity that the craftsmanship is not as good as that of Confucianism, and its solemnity is not as good as that of Buddhism. Retouching is a waste of excellent materials, such as you Longevity girl!"

I?Where do I have any strange fragrance?Lian Wuxia was astonished when he heard this.Seeing her bewildered expression, Long Su said bitterly: "You hate people from the Taoist sect who have beauties but don't know how to take care of them, and those who don't know how to take care of them are still so beautiful."

Lian Wuxia turned his head to think for a while, and suddenly realized that he took a long-necked copper pot with bronze algae green, filled it with water, took out the ruler and put Danqing in it, injected a little spiritual energy, and the four-colored plum blossoms were gently floating on the branches. Trembling, the cold, beautiful and subtle fragrance of flowers immediately filled the entire space.She looked back with a vase of flowers in her hand, and asked with her eyes: "Is that so?"

Long Su's movement of shaking the fan froze slightly: "This is the second of them."

There was one of them?Lian Wuxia was really tested this time.She thought about her belongings one by one, except for Chisu Danqing, which is so fragrant, there are only a few herbs that are considered fragrant, but even Chisu Danqing has been eliminated to the second place. Can it be stronger than it?

Holding the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, she put out the herbs one by one.Long Su glanced at it: "I can't see that you have collected a lot of medicinal materials." Then he pointed out with a fan, commented on their appearance, medicinal properties, and functions, and finally asked, "You take them out to make What?"

Lian Wuxia took the herb back silently: "Which one is the 'one', please tell me, senior."

"You are really stupid." Long Su sighed, "The 'one' is far away in the sky and close in front of you, it is you."

I?Lian Wuxia's eyes were full of shock.

Seeing this, Long Su smiled: "You, you obviously have a strange fragrance in your body but you don't know it. It can be seen that the saying 'enter the room of Zhilan, and you won't smell its fragrance for a long time' is true. The ancients are sincere!"

Lian Wuxia smelled Chisu Danqing, sniffed Qingya's neck, walked into Longsu's side and smelled it, and finally raised his hand to sniff the skin on his own wrist.Chisu Danqing is the fragrance of cold plum blossoms, Qingya is the refreshing fragrance of green grass, Senior Shulou is the fragrance of Hua Lie's epiphyllum, and I...seem to have a different smell, like snow but more sparse, It looks like a plum blossom but is actually secluded, floating and faint, full of subtle and subtle meanings.

Senior Shulou said that the body has a strange fragrance, is this the smell?Lian Wuxia was thinking about it, and suddenly understood an old case - the old lady in Yuquan Village said that she "pile flowers, rouge, and powder on her body", did she mean the smell on her body?

She withdrew her thoughts: "This junior has been taking Yunliu Meiying Xuandan since he started Bigu."

"A name that has never been heard of." It is rare for Long Su to become interested, and it is also rare for him to have a name that he has never heard of due to his erudition.

It is normal that he has never heard of it, because this is the pill formula specially designed by Lian Wuxia after Lian Wuxia cultivated to Bigu, referring to the physique of the adoptive daughter and the characteristics of Pingshan's unfeeling Taoism: "This pill is to take that snow Color mica is made from the jade point of the Youxi River, and the fine red plums are collected and dried naturally, soaked in the mica pulp, sprinkled with the honey of Pingshan cloud fruit, and condensed. The smell is very clear after the pill is made, and it will not be hungry after ten years of consumption. Not hungry but looking good, the aura of this junior must come from it." Lian Wuxia wrote while taking out a grain and holding it on his palm.

Long Su took a closer look, and saw that the pill was as big as a longan's eye, pale red in color, melting and dizzy, clear like ice and snow, and a clear and fragrant breath came through his brain.Long Su withdrew his gaze: "Girl Changsheng, if I asked you to meet at Jieshi in the East China Sea, but you went to Cangwu in the South China Sea, do you think we will still meet in our lifetime?" Seeing Lian Wuxia froze, he ground his teeth He asked, "It's true that your elixir has a strange fragrance, but you have to explain to me, how does it resemble the smell on your body?"

The dragon head of the Confucian sect is so magnificent, Lian Wuxia turned his face sideways where his eyes were sharp, and Qing Ya shrank his head timidly where the remaining power came.

"Young Master Ru argue with me again, you are born with a strange fragrance, which is irrefutable." Long Su made a conclusion, and suddenly smiled, "He has no thoughts of dust, but pays attention to a natural one, maybe this is the fragrance of your Taoism."

Lian Wuxia thought about it, and a smile appeared in her beautiful eyes.However, after a while, she changed the subject: "Senior Shulou's medical skills should be very good."

"Of course." Long Su replied as a matter of course.The turmoil in the Jianghu is dangerous, which is ten times more dangerous than that of the Confucian sect who are scheming and strife. To protect others and protect themselves, which Confucian sect high-ranking man does not have so many medical secrets?Long Su was able to open up the vibrant new system of Confucianism in the old Confucianism system. His medical skills are so superb that he can at least rank among the top three Confucians in the world.It's just that he has been in a high position for a long time, and there are very few characters who can work for his boss to heal with his own hands, and the characters who can work for him and at the same time make him willing to heal with his own hands are even rarer. Among them, there was only one laughing at the world of mortals.

Under his painstaking and meticulous treatment, Ao Xiao Hongchen was crippled as expected.

If it weren't for the luck of this gentleman, it was just a coincidence that he got the bamboo that was cured of hemiplegia. Famous sword, how could he Shulou Longsu be defeated by his subordinates and become an army?

Proudly laughing at the world of mortals... Long Su sneered from the bottom of his heart.Wouldn't it be too unglamorous if I didn't repay the sword you gave me back twice as much?

Seeing that a certain Zilong was about to blacken all the way to the ultimate goal of the scheming big boss, but was interrupted by a little girl unconsciously, because Lian Wuxia wrote again: "The younger generation has a junior sister who has lost her arm for many years. , Senior Shulou has a cure?" Gong Zixuan's broken arm injury has always been Lian Wuxia's heart disease, so she asked many doctors to show Gong Zixuan's arm, all in vain.In desperation, she even taught herself medical skills, hoping that one day she could relieve the pain of her junior sister, but the more she learned, the more she felt hopeless.However, the knowledge and insight such as Long Su should be different from those folk doctors, right?

At first sight of hope, Lian Wuxia's eyes were filled with apprehension and anticipation.Stared at by such gazes, even Long Su thought his heart was colder than a stone in severe winter, and couldn't help but soften a little bit.

If a person is too good, there will always be no harm in life.Especially when the other party is still a flawless little girl like ice and snow, every slight bit of loss and sadness in her is a crime in the eyes of onlookers.

"Doctors need to make a diagnosis, smell, ask, and feel. Are you going to let me diagnose the disease based on my gorgeous imagination?" Long Su chuckled.

Lian Wuxia's bright brown eyes lit up, and immediately thought of something, and then dimmed again: "Junior sister now lives in Mobei, but it is inconvenient to disclose the address of senior Shulou..." It's not that she can't trust her junior sister's character, but because of With Senior Shulou's current status, once the location of Blood Dragon Lake is leaked to a third person, it will always be troublesome. How can she cause trouble for Senior?Therefore, it is impossible for Gong Zixuan to rush over by himself.However, if Gong Zixuan is not allowed to come over, is it possible that the senior of Labor Shulou will drive over?It is too strong to be difficult.But so far this is the only hope for Junior Sister to recover from her injury, is she going to miss it like this...

She thought about it layer by layer, and unconsciously her two eyebrows were about to become tangled together.

Helping people to the end, sending the Buddha to the west, it is rare to be kind and considerate to the younger generation, and simply do it home.Just think that he is tired of being a conspirator in Shulou and Longsu, and wants to learn from the nosy Jianzi Laodao.

Long Su glanced at him in pain before he had time to sit on the warm extreme northern snow blanket, leaned on the back of the chair, melted a half-burnt pipe and put it in his mouth, sucking and exhaling, it was a slowly spreading The standard circle: "Wait until I finish smoking this pipe."

The author has something to say: In order to write Master Longsu's discussion on incense, the author Jun bought a special copy of "Chinese Perfumery" and read it, so I know the profoundness of the study of fragrance in Greater China.

Some time ago, the "Living Color and Fragrance" played... bullying the masses don't understand fragrance?So what kind of essential oil, where did the ancient Chinese get the essential oil for perfumery, did they steal it from France?What kind of magic incense, this name came from, do you dare to be a little less educated?

Here I recommend "Chinese Fragrance Studies" published by Zhonghua Book Company. Fragrance is also a kind of culture.
