The author of the book "The Book of the Dead"

Chapter 145: Tongtian Era, Seven Years of Heart Refining

"I obey your command!" The servant nodded solemnly after receiving the order.

Wu Shigui was one of the founding heroes. He had a golden medal of immunity from death bestowed by the emperor and was responsible for guarding Jingzhou. His orders in Jingzhou were the law and no one dared to disobey.

After the servants left, Wu Shigui lost interest and said to everyone, "Go back and stop playing."

The boat docked and the group headed into the city.

Liang Yue walked slowly on the official road. Not far away were more than a dozen corpses with their eyes open.

Some of the bodies had sunken faces, as if they had been hit by something, some were split in two, and some seemed to be sleeping and would never wake up.

These were bandits from the mountains, and Liang Yue was using them to test his martial arts.

Wherever Liang Yue went, the bandits were terrified.

Therefore, there is an unwritten rule in the underworld: if you encounter a lone monk or Taoist priest, it is best not to provoke them, and they may even be given a higher priority than the government troops.

When besieged by government troops, at least a few of them could escape, but once they encountered monks or Taoists, no one would be able to escape.

The body is walking, the soul is wandering, and you can feel the path of martial arts.

Soon, they entered Jiangling city.

Liang Yue was holding a long banner and walking on the bustling streets with a promise of saving lives.

The crowds were surging and the merchants were hurrying.

Jiangling Prefecture is the most prosperous city in Jingzhou. The story of Liu Bei borrowing Jingzhou and Guan Yu carelessly losing Jingzhou took place here.

On the way here, you can see many temples dedicated to Guan Gong. The belief in Guan Gong has not yet spread as it has in later generations. In this world, it is a local niche belief.

Liang Yue's reputation did not seem to spread to the south. Perhaps he was only famous among the well-informed aristocratic class, and ordinary people were unaware of his reputation.

"Doctor, do you charge for treating patients?" The skinny young man with a pale face asked cautiously.

"No!"

Liang Yue turned around and his eyes suddenly fixed when he saw the young man. This man had a very big belly, which was a characteristic of schistosomiasis infection.

"Do you have a fever? Do you have abdominal pain?"

"Yes."

Liang Yue followed the young man to a quiet alley and an abandoned house.

There are more than a dozen people here, all with big bellies.

Liang Yue sensed for a moment and finally found a cure.

As the injections were given, these people ran out and vomited violently.

"You can no longer drink raw water. You must boil the water before drinking it."

Of course, this is not a radical cure, because it uses Qi for treatment, so it can be cured in less than a moment.

I can't stay here forever, I have to teach this method to everyone.

The required medicinal materials must be the most common and easiest to obtain, and the knowledge of prevention and treatment must be spread.

In the following days, Liang Yue practiced medicine during the day and went out in a trance at night to study the properties of medicines and snails.

Finally, I successfully found the herbs.

"This substance is easy to obtain. Soaking it in water with willow bark for three days can effectively cure the disease. This substance can also drive away roundworms."

As for eliminating snails, that's very simple.

Wow!
In the dark night sky, the soul leaves the body.

The body of the Dharma is solid, and the patterns are black and white.

There are cloud seals floating all around, this is the magical power of visualization of the Dharma body.

The moment the Dharma body appeared, there were faint clouds, thunder and strong winds all around.

boom!
Thunder roared, strong winds blew, and rain fell from the sky.

The Dharma body held a handful of pills in his hand and dissolved the medicinal power into the rainwater, killing the snails and schistosome eggs.

After controlling the clouds and rain, Liang Yue returned to his main body, walked to the riverside, and threw dozens of pills into the water. These magical pills had no other medicinal properties, only substances that killed schistosomiasis.

The drug's potency is regardless of concentration and remains in water bodies for a long time, flowing with the water flow into rice fields and tributaries.

"I didn't expect that Kuafu's blood would have such a miraculous effect. From now on, there will be no more such disease in this area."

Perhaps, it is God's will that I come here to benefit the common people.

All that remains is to solve the existing symptoms and pass down the anthelmintic prescription.

"Perhaps, this medicine will make Jiangnan more prosperous."

From now on, poor mountains and bad waters will no longer be forbidden areas that humans cannot set foot in.

Somehow, it seemed as if history had been changed.

More than ten days later.

Liang Yue's reputation gradually became known.

Difficult and complicated diseases can be cured very quickly, and colleagues will come to see him and teach him everything they know.

"The Divine Doctor Tongtian is the Medicine God from Heaven who has descended to earth."

"The miracle doctor is from Chang'an. It is said that he is the imperial physician who treats the emperor!"

"It turns out to be this Taoist Master Tongtian!"

Some high-ranking officials lent their shops for medical treatment, and some scholars took up their pens to compose poems.

The army traveled thousands of miles to Chu, and had long heard of the miraculous medical skills... Compassion is the most important thing in Taoism, especially since he is the most superior Taoist.

During this period, Liang Yue learned martial arts such as Fu Bo Gong, Chuan Zhuang, and underwater body training.

His skills, which he perfected in three days, once again shocked the martial arts world near Jiangling.

The entire Jiangling seems to be the Jiangling of the Tongtian Taoist.

His name was known throughout Chu, and his medical skills were known far and wide.

The classical medical knowledge from the north has raised the medical skills of the doctors here to an unknown level.

This is the era of universal access.

This day, early morning.

By the pool, Xuanwu digests the elixir and transports qi and blood.

Liang Yue opened his Dharma eyes and watched from the side.

Xuanwu practiced Yu Wenzhi's Ice Xuan Jin.

Different from the original method, after practicing Xuanwu, the internal energy of this method becomes incomparably long-lasting.

Xuanwu is not a human being after all, and has his own unique path of cultivation.

"Why not follow the Xuanwu route and create a magical skill that is all-encompassing and has a long and profound aura."

Liang Yue pondered inwardly.

Dong dong dong….

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Where is the great doctor? The governor wants to see him!"

……

Jingzhou Military Governor's Office.

In the back house, Wu Shigui and his wife paced anxiously.

A ten-year-old girl with a beautiful appearance was lying unconscious on the hospital bed.

"The miracle doctor is here!"

"Miracles doctor, you are finally here." Wu Shigui hurried forward to greet him, and without saying anything nonsense, he led Liang Yue directly to his daughter.

"The next time, Wu Mingkong was diagnosed with an unknown disease, and all the famous doctors were helpless."

"Wu Mingkong?"

Liang Yue took a look at the woman and found out that she looked like this.

The lesion is probably clear.

This is not a disease, but precocity. In the words of the immortals, it means that one is born with a strong soul. If the soul is strong, the body cannot keep up, and it is easy to fall into a coma for no reason, or even die young.

This situation is easy to deal with, just practice martial arts.

Liang Yue briefly explained the condition.

"Please go out for a moment."

After everyone left, Liang Yue opened the Dharma Eye between his eyebrows and scanned the woman's internal condition.

After one injection, the true Qi seals the Niwan Palace.

Ahem….

With a slight cough, the girl slowly woke up.

In a trance, he could vaguely see a three-eyed god saving him.

After waking up, the three-eyed god was gone, only a man who looked like the god.

"Are you a god?" Wu Mingkong asked.

"I'm not!"

Liang Yue smiled slightly, took out Wu Shigui's Dajiang Dielang Gong and prepared to leave.

"Thank you, miracle doctor!" Wu Shigui clasped his fists to express his gratitude.

"No need."

Afterwards, the Wu family members rushed forward and asked Wu Mingkong about his situation with concern.

"From today on, Mingkong will practice martial arts with me!" said Wu Shigui.

Wu Mingkong was still immersed in the illusion of the three-eyed immortal.

This feeling is becoming more and more real.

Hearing about practicing martial arts, Wu Mingkong subconsciously rejected it and said, "No, I don't practice martial arts. I feel stinky."

"You have to practice even if you don't want to." Wu Shigui said in a heavier tone.

"No!"

Wu Mingkong closed his eyes and fell unconscious on the bed.

Another burst of excitement.

Liang Yue smiled and said, "It's fake."

Wu Mingkong was too embarrassed to open his eyes, and then he proposed a new condition, saying: "You can practice martial arts, but I want to learn medicine from the gods. Medicine is also a martial art."

In short, he just didn't want to learn his father's sweaty martial arts.

Wu Shigui looked at him in embarrassment and said, "Divine doctor, I am willing to give you ten thousand gold coins. I hope you will..."

Liang Yue thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I will go to Jiankang tomorrow, and Mingkong can follow me to learn during this time."

When Wu Mingkong learned that he could not only study medicine but also go out and have fun, he immediately agreed excitedly.

The next day, early morning.

Liang Yue, Wu Mingkong, and two female warriors dressed as men went out.

Looking at the rising sun and the girl beside him.

Liang Yue thought to himself: "Become a good doctor instead of an emperor."

Being an emperor was indeed a bit difficult. If it weren't for his special gender, he probably wouldn't even be ranked in history, and would be in the middle at best.

It can be considered as another way of benefiting the people.

"What is this?"

Along the way, Wu Mingkong pointed at the flowers and plants on the roadside.

"This is Sedum, which has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and stopping bleeding."

"What about this?"

"This is Xu Changqing..."

“And this, this…”

"These are Long Kui, Xue Jian, Zi Xuan, and Chong Lou..."

Liang Yue never tired of explaining, and at the same time instilled in him the noble aspiration of curing diseases and saving lives.

"To heal the world with a medicine, and to leave a good reputation for generations, this is a merit that will never change. Do you understand, Mingkong?"

"Yes, Master." Wu Mingkong nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Liang Yue did not correct his address.

This girl can inherit his medical skills and benefit the people, so she can be considered as half a disciple.

At night, everyone set up tents and two warrior maids were responsible for taking care of the young lady.

Beside the campfire, Liang Yue was summarizing martial arts.

Wu Mingkong came out after wiping his body.

Liang Yue explained:
"Martial arts can be divided into four types: internal strength, will, qi and blood, and external field."

The outer field is the magical domain of Yuan Tiangang, who makes use of the environment. This method is extremely difficult to master.

"The mainstream fighting methods can be divided into ten types: knife, spear, sword, halberd, palm, fist... "

Liang Yue plans to deduce all ten of them, which is the framework of the Ten Complete Martial Arts.

As for the internal strength, it includes the four kinds of Xuanwu Zhengong.

Therefore, I still need to continue traveling around the world and researching more martial arts.

Wu Mingkong seemed to understand but not quite.

After ten days' journey, we arrived in Jiankang.

Based on his past experience in internal strength and true qi techniques, Liang Yue summarized the first version of Xuanwu Zhengong.

After confirming that it was correct, he passed it on to Wu Mingkong.

After that, he stayed in Jiankang City for more than ten days.

Early in the morning, Liang Yue and Wu Mingkong parted ways.

"Master, where are you going?" Wu Mingkong's eyes were filled with tears as he pulled at the corner of Liang Yue's clothes reluctantly.

"For a teacher, the world is my home! Mingkong, remember, all good things must come to an end."

Liang Yue tapped the little girl's head.

After that, he left happily.

Wu Mingkong shouted behind him.

"Master, I will definitely be a good doctor. Remember to come to Jiangling to see me in the future!!"

The old friend waved his hand and his figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

Travel around the world and make the world your home.

Walk through the mountains and make the world your home.

A pair of feet travels everywhere.

He walked out of the sunrise and sunset, and his face was full of vicissitudes, his beard was scraggly, his shoes were worn, and his hat was worn.

The reputation went from its peak to being mediocre, and finally no one mentioned it anymore.

Time is an invisible knife.

The general has gray hair and the beauty has grown old.

How many generals, emperors, talented men and beautiful women have fallen under the invisible knife of time.

Seven years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, I practiced meditation in the mountains.

Suddenly, a thought came to my mind and news came from an unexpected person.
