Chapter 4 Seeds and Maps
When Xu Fu said this, Wu Mian's expression became complicated. After hesitating for a while, he said, "So those white-haired people outside took this ageless pill, and their physical constitution changed, so their hair turned white, right?"
Xu Fu nodded slightly and said, "All people who take elixirs and change their physical constitution will maintain their physical functions at the moment of taking the medicine. The recovery ability of trauma is far beyond that of ordinary people, but their hair color will turn white. This is also a common feature after taking the medicine."
After hearing Xu Fu's words, Wu Mian sighed slightly and hid the pill in his sleeve. This action was beyond the expectations of Master Da Fang. Xu Fu said: "I thought you would take this pill while I was there. At least even if the medicine is repulsed, I would not sit idly by and watch. At least I will save your life."
After Wu Mian put away the pills, he looked at Xu Fu helplessly and said in his unique tone: "Master Dafang will go out to sea tomorrow, and 80% will not take me away. After you leave, I am afraid that even your white-haired disciples will not give me any good faces. Not to mention the Lord General of the Alchemist, he suffered a loss here today, and he will definitely attack me after finding trouble. Tomorrow, seeing my hair turn white, even if he is not capable, compared with the mold of your white-haired disciple, you can understand what happened. At that time, the heart of avoiding me is better. Master Dafang, after taking this pill, he will live forever, but he will not die, right?"
Xu Fu smiled and said, "I underestimate you a little. It turns out that you are not only poisonous in your mouth, but also have something to decorate in your heart."
Speaking of this, Master Dafang frowned slightly, and looked at Wu Mian but didn't say anything. After a while, he said quietly: "It's still a bit too early to give you this seed..." Just as Xu Fu was speaking, an object emitting colorful light appeared in his palms at some point. With Wu Mian's eyesight that could see through the illusion, he couldn't even tell whether it was solid or liquid.
Xu Fu handed over the object emitting colorful streaming light, and Wu Mian hurriedly reached forward to receive it. He didn't expect that when he saw it, Master Da Fang's hand suddenly changed direction and stretched towards Wu Mian's chest. The moment the glowing object touched Wu Mian's chest, it disappeared from Xu Fu's hand in an instant. At the same moment, Wu Mian felt a chill on his chest and there was a foreign object in his body.
Looking at Wu Mian's surprised expression, Xu Fu smiled slightly and said, "This seed is the source of my strength. I was supposed to keep Guangren. Unfortunately, his physique had a conflict with the elixir and was no longer suitable for accepting this seed. I would just do it today and let you pick up a bargain. I have temporarily sealed the seed. After you take the elixir, this seed will become active. However, as for the extent to which this seed will grow, it depends on your luck."
At this time, Wu Mian's surprised expression had slowly recovered. He took a deep breath and felt that there was no discomfort in the foreign body in his body. Then he looked up at Xu Fu without using the honorific title of Master Da Fang, and said directly: "So how do you know that after I take the elixir, I will not repel the same medicine as Guangren? He will protect him so that he will not lose his life. So what about me? Once I am unlucky and die in the medicinal properties of the elixir, will your seed be gone?"
"Then it's up to your luck." Xu Fu looked at Wu Mian and smiled, and then said, "Let's take a step back, even if your luck is not good, you really can't pass the last level, and the seeds in your body will not disappear because of this. Do you think Guangren and the others will watch this seed flow away?" When Master Dafang said the last sentence, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his eyes and mouth.
After saying this, Xu Fu brought Wu Mian to the end of the preaching hall. There was a small inner room inside. Outside, it looked like the place where Da Fang Master rested, but after entering, there were only four stone walls inside. At first glance, it looked empty, and there was nothing except the few rolls of bamboo slips and ink placed on the ground.
Xu Fu walked straight to the position where the bamboo slips were placed and sat cross-legged on the ground, looked up at Wu Mian and said, "You are the only one here except me, and you will be the only one who comes in here in the end. The one you want to give to you in the end is here."
Wu Mian glanced at the bamboo slips on the ground. Seeing that Xu Fu had no intention of stopping him, he bent down and picked up a roll of bamboo slips. When he opened it, there was not even a dot of ink on it.
After a moment of froze, Wu Mian opened several more bamboo slips, but there was still no handwriting in it. Xu Fu looked at Wu Mian and laughed, saying, "This is called the Wordless Heavenly Book. I don't write. What can you see on it?"
After saying that, Master Dafang ignored Wu Mian. He opened a roll of bamboo slips, spread them flat on his legs, and without using a pen, he directly dipped his fingers ink, and wrote and painted the bamboo slips. After a while, Master Dafang handed the bamboo slips to Wu Mian and said, "When he was talking, Xu Fu had already taken a roll of bamboo slips again, continued to use his hands to write and draw on them.
Wu Mian took the bamboo slips and saw a map drawn on it. Five words were written on it above the map. Before Wu Mian could ask what map it was. Master Dafang's second volume of bamboo slips had already been handed over: "It's all memorized, you only have this night." After that, he picked up a bamboo slip again, lowered his head and drew the third map on it.
In this way, Master Dafang drew nine maps in a row, handing them all to Wu Mian, and shook his hands covered with ink. After a moment, the ink traces on his hands disappeared cleanly. Looking at Wu Mian who was frowning at the bamboo slips, he said, "The nine places above are the last things I left for you. You memorize the map in order. If you pass the last level of the immortal pill, you must also go to these places in order. Remember that the order cannot be messed up, otherwise even if you live forever, it will be difficult to keep in and out."
Wu Mian's eyes shifted from the bamboo slips to Xu Fu, and said to Master Da Fang with a suspicious look on his face: "What is in the place where the map is identified?"
Xu Fu said with a smile: "You will know when you go in. There is another thing you have to do. If you see an old guy named Gui Bugui, you don't need to say anything, slap him first, and then tell him that I asked you to come to him."
The last sentence made Wu Mian inexplicably. At this time, the smile on Xu Fu's face was restrained, and the tone changed, and then said: "If you are lucky and can safely resolve the medicinal properties of the elixir and reach these nine places in order, the seeds in your body may grow into towering trees that even I have to look up to. Then you remember my words, don't want to use your ability to change the direction of the times. The replacement of countries and the demise of nations. Everything is caused by heaven's will. People like us who transcend birth, old age, sickness and death are originally going against the will of heaven. If we want to change the will of heaven, it will only bring punishment from heaven. Then it will be the time for our alchemists to destroy the family."
Xu Fu's sudden change made Wu Mian a little surprised. After a moment, he said to Master Dafang: "This should be said to Guangren and the others?"
At this time, Master Dafang smiled helplessly and said, "If Guangren and the others can understand, I don't have to hand over all this to you. You don't have to think too much, you will understand everything when it's time to understand."
After saying that, Xu Fu left Wu Mian to recite the map in the inner room. He left the inner room first. He was speechless all night. The next day, the sky was slightly brighter, and Wu Mian was dizzy and wrote down nine maps. Just when the first sunlight shone, the handwriting and map on the bamboo slips disappeared at the same time, leaving only the nine-rolled bamboo slips.
At this time, Xu Fu's voice came to the inner room: "The time has come, remember how much it is your luck. Come out now, there has been changes on the First Emperor. You can go with that supervisor."
Wu Mian walked around and only heard the sound but did not see Da Fang. He knew in his heart that this was Xu Fu's magical power, because it involved Emperor Qin Shi, so he didn't dare to delay it. Outside the temple, he saw the general manager walking around with an anxious look on his face.
Seeing that Wu Mian finally came out of the dojo, the general manager smiled and pointed in Wu Mian's direction, shouting loudly: "Little bastard! Are you finally willing to give up? Come here!"
After Wu Mian walked over, the general manager raised his hand and slapped him. Wu Mian couldn't dodge and was knocked to the ground on the spot. The general manager still kicked and beaten and scolded: "Wu Mian... Bah! You are a little palace slave, why do you have a surname? Little bastard, you are the only one who can do it, right? You can see through Master Dafang's tricks, right? You are teased by someone, you laughed at him? You are a thief, don't think that someone can plead for you. Let me tell you clearly that before dawn, Master Dafang took people to sea. Bah! Master Dafang, the surname Xu, has passed on Master Dafang's Taoism to Lord Guangren."
