Chapter 1817: 1818 I Swear Not to Be a Concubine
Although she does not need to rely on medicinal pills to extend her lifespan at her age, she has heard of this medicinal pill.
"No, it's not as simple as the Life Continuation Pill, but the whole person can be a hundred years younger, just like the legendary Phoenix Nirvana." Lin Xiu corrected.
Mu Hanyan's eyes lit up. Pills like the Life Extension Pill were both available in the Sacred Court Continent and the Continent of the Gods. They were used to prolong life by stimulating the potential of life. For example, the Seven Treasures Life Extension Pill prepared by Ye Yi'an for himself is this. kind.
Although this kind of medicine can prolong life, it cannot prevent the natural aging of the body. The more times the potential is stimulated, the older it will become. Just like Ye Yi'an, because of the continuous aging of the body, it is obvious that there are ninth-order spiritual priests. However, it is difficult to display it, and it is basically impossible to continue to improve the cultivation base. Once the potential of life is exhausted, it will definitely die.
According to Lin Xiu, Feng Nirvana does not rely on stimulating the potential of life to prolong its life, but is hundreds of years younger like Phoenix Nirvana, which means that the physical function is better than before, and it is easier to cultivate. It is naturally easier to extend the lifespan by increasing the level of cultivation. As long as the cultivation base can be continuously improved, the continuation of the lifespan is almost infinite.
Of course, due to the limitation of talent, there will eventually be bottlenecks that cannot be broken through, and it cannot be truly infinite, but it is still much better than taking the Life Extension Pill and waiting to die.
Mu Hanyan naturally thought of Ye Yi'an, and was very excited. Last time, in order to save the little auspicious beast, Ye Yi'an used the life-saving Qibao life-sustaining pill. She has always felt guilty and wanted to help him extend his lifespan, but couldn't find a suitable way. It can prolong his life for a hundred years, and it can also help him restore his physical functions. Maybe he can break through the bottleneck of cultivation. Once the strength breaks through the bottleneck, he can extend his life for another period of time.
Shen Yuhe and the others also showed surprise, and obviously also thought of the difference between this Phoenix Nirvana Pill and the general Life Continuation Pill, and knew what it meant.
"Now you understand, our Gu family's status and fame today depended on Feng Niedan. It's a pity that since your uncle passed away, your grandfather has been ill. He was cured, but he was in a trance. , I made several mistakes in refining Feng Nie Dan, and my family's savings were also lost. I heard that even the people who came to the door suffered heavy losses.
Once or twice is enough, if the number of times is more than one, no one will come to ask your grandfather to make alchemy. The Gu family’s industries look prosperous, but in fact, others are helping your grandfather face, otherwise it will depend on the strength of the Gu family. How can you compete for business with other priestly families? Now your grandfather is no longer needed, and naturally no one will give you face. Naturally, those industries will not be able to make money. Lose. "Lin Xiu continued.
"It turned out to be the case, but grandpa failed in alchemy, we just need to pay, what did they lose?" This time, Shen Yuhe understood, but asked with some doubts.
"I don't know much about this, it's all from what people say. You know I don't care much about family affairs, so I don't want to ask too much." Lin Xiu said.
"This is not simple. The medicinal materials needed for such a panacea must be extremely rare, and the Gu family probably does not have enough preparations. Those who ask your grandfather to make alchemy must prepare some of their own. Once the alchemy fails, of course, they will also suffer heavy losses. He didn't say anything, but he must still have resentment in his heart, once more times, no one would dare to ask your grandfather for help." Mu Hanyan helped explain.
When she was at Longyan College, she also helped people make medicinal pills and knew some rules. If all the medicinal materials are provided by the alchemist himself, the price of the medicinal pills is the highest. If both sides provide some medicinal materials, the price will be nearly one-third cheaper. That's all, but if you fail, unless there is an agreement, you will lose some money.
Patriarch Gu obviously chose the second type, which made less money, didn’t have to work hard to collect herbs, and took less risks. However, if he failed a few times, I’m afraid no one would dare to ask him for help.
"Well, I think it should be the same. I heard that those medicinal materials are really hard to find and not cheap." Lin Xiu nodded and said.
"How is grandpa now?" Shen Yuhe asked worriedly.
"Your grandfather has suffered from setbacks one after another, and his body is not as good as one day. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it won't last long." Lin Xiu hesitated for a while, then wiped her eyes and said.
"What?" Shen Yuhe was startled. Since she was a child, her grandfather has loved her very much. Even though she has been staying in Huayu City for all these years, her grandfather still asks people to bring some property to her from time to time. She should know that the life of Huayu Temple is not easy and she is afraid that she will suffer.
I didn't know about the predicament of the Gu family before, but now I know that even the Gu family can't protect themselves.
"I'm going to see Grandpa." Shen Yuhe held back her tears and walked towards Grandpa's yard.
"Your grandfather is talking to a few old friends, let's go after dinner first." Lin Xiu advised.
"No, I'm going to see my grandfather now." Shen Yuhe didn't want to wait for a moment, and stepped forward.
Mu Hanyan and the others were full of curiosity about Feng Nie Dan in their hearts and followed suit.
Lin Xiujian couldn't persuade her, so he could only follow behind, lest he encounter Zhu Yulan again and make trouble.
Soon, the group arrived at the old yard in the depths of Gu's house. As soon as they entered the door, they were stopped by two guards.
Knowing that her grandfather had a business to discuss with someone, Shen Yuhe did not force her way, and stood obediently outside the door, but she could hear the voices of arguments inside. After hearing the content of the voices inside, her complexion gradually changed.
"Wan Steward, don't deceive people too much. Although my Gu family is not as good as before, I can definitely be humiliated by others." A haggard-faced old man said angrily, it was the Gu family's head, Gu Qingyang.
"Patriarch Gu, it's a bit too much for you to say that. My Long family is the number one priest family in Tianyang City. Young Master Wu Wrong is the son of the chief priest, and now he's the priest of the Temple of Heaven, isn't he worthy of your granddaughter? , if I really want to elaborate, it's also the granddaughter Gao Pan." The old man with a thin face and a bit gloomy smiled hehe.
"Housekeeper Wan, if the Long family came to propose marriage in good faith, I would recognize even my Gu family, but I wanted Yuhe to be a concubine. What do you think of my Gu family?" Gu Qingyang looked at the other party, almost in his eyes. To spew fire.
