My dantian has dragon balls

Chapter 68: Broken Meridians

The two of them walked in a hurry, heading towards the city lord's mansion without stopping.

Along the way, Zhou Lie made some insinuations and learned the identity of Mr. Xia from Huang Xiongshi.

This old man Xia's name is Xia Jinglong, and his identity is not simple. He was awarded the title of general of the Great Xia Dynasty when he was young. He has participated in dozens of border wars, killed countless enemies, and made great achievements.

Xia Hongyuan was able to take the position of Beihai City Lord thanks to the old man's efforts to smooth relations inside and outside the court and manage everything up and down.

Twenty years ago, Xia Hongyuan left Yanjing City and came to Beihai City to take up his post. Mr. Xia also followed his son here to take care of himself.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the city lord's mansion.

From a distance, Zhou Lie saw many familiar figures.

City Lord Xia Hongyuan, as well as many Beihai City officials who came to congratulate Zhou Lie when he was knighted, were standing in front of the gate waiting anxiously.

Seeing Zhou Lie and Huang Xiongshi appear, Xia Hongyuan immediately greeted them and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry to disturb you. I only invited you here because I had no other choice. You've been tired all the way. Why don't you come with me to have a cup of tea and take a rest?"

"No need, Mr. Xia is ill and there is no time to delay. The city lord should take me to see him first."

Zhou Lie waved his hand.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, please come with me."

Xia Hongyuan hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way.

The group of people entered the city lord's mansion in a mighty manner, came to the backyard, and walked into Xia Jinglong's room.

Xia Jinglong was about eighty years old. His face was covered with weather-beaten wrinkles. Due to a serious illness, his eyes were sunken and his face was pale.

At this moment, he was lying on the bed, coughing violently. Every time he coughed, he spit out a mouthful of shocking blood. Many maids around him were busy cleaning him up.

"Father, you are coughing up blood again."

Xia Hongyuan hurriedly walked up, supported Xia Jinglong, and patted his back gently, his face full of worry.

"It's okay. I just vomited a few mouthfuls of blood. I won't die for the time being."

Xia Jinglong waved his hand, turned to look at Zhou Lie, and said with a smile: "You must be the famous Wu Anbo who killed Dai Xiao and smashed the Five Poison Sect's conspiracy. I heard Hong Yuan told you about your deeds. You are indeed a hero." Young man."

"Mr. Xia, thank you very much. As a member of the Great Xia Dynasty, I am bound to kill enemies from outside the territory."

Zhou Lie nodded and said: "Lie still, I will check the cause of the disease for you."

"Okay, thank you for your trouble, Amber."

Xia Jinglong lay down and coughed several times in succession.

Zhou Lie walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and put his hand on Xia Jinglong's wrist.

He is not a doctor, so of course he doesn't know how to treat patients. However, he has other ways to find out the condition.

He closed his eyes and released a stream of true energy that penetrated into Xia Jinglong's body. This true energy began to swim in Xia Jinglong's body like a spiritual snake.

This method is much more powerful than a doctor's pulse check, and it can easily detect the situation in Xia Jinglong's body.

As this true energy circulated in Xia Jinglong's body, Zhou Lie's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He discovered that almost half of the meridians in the old man's body were broken, and all his internal organs were displaced. It was simply a miracle that he could survive to this day.

"Mr. Xia, are you at the True Martial Realm?"

Zhou Lie opened his eyes and suddenly said something irrelevant.

"That's right, I cultivated to the True Martial Realm 40 years ago."

Xia Jinglong nodded, and then asked: "I'm sorry to be confused, but is this related to my illness?"

"If you hadn't cultivated to the True Martial Realm and condensed the true energy in your Dantian to protect the remaining meridians throughout your body, you wouldn't have been able to survive until now with your current condition."

Zhou Lie sighed and asked: "Old man, I just checked and found that half of your meridians have been severed and all your internal organs have been displaced. Who in the end severely injured you?"

"Oh, Wu Anbo actually figured out the cause of my illness."

Xia Jinglong's eyes lit up. Originally, he didn't have much hope for Zhou Lie. Although this young man had great martial arts, it didn't mean that his medical skills were equally good.

Now that he saw that Zhou Lie could actually tell the cause of his illness, he couldn't help but look at it with admiration.

Xia Hongyuan quickly explained on the side: "When my father was young, he led troops to kill enemies on the border. Once he encountered a powerful enemy and fought a battle with him. In the end, he lost and his meridians were interrupted. He could not be cured for decades. I can only take medicine to suppress it, but unfortunately today, medicine doesn’t work anymore.”

Zhou Lie nodded and said: "The meridians are the channels through which the human body's Qi and blood circulate. Once broken, the blood and Qi are blocked, and there is almost no cure."

"Is there nothing Mr. Zhou can do?"

Xia Hongyuan sighed after hearing this and said dejectedly.

"There is a way, but it depends on City Lord whether you can buy the medicinal materials I need."

Zhou Lie found paper and pen, wrote down the names of more than ten kinds of medicinal materials in a loose manner, and then handed them to Xia Hongyuan.

While he was just checking Xia Jinglong's injuries, he had already started searching the memories of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon King to find a solution.

Finally, I found a healing elixir called "Xueshen Xumai Pill."

"Xue Shen Xu Mai Pill?"

Xia Hongyuan was shocked after getting the prescription. After taking a few glances, he suddenly frowned and said: "Dragon grass, flame flower, red lingzhi, azure fruit... I know all these medicinal materials, but these 1000-year-old What is Blood Spirit Ginseng? Not only have I never seen it, I’ve never heard of it either."

"Thousand-year-old Blood Spirit Ginseng is the main ingredient in refining the Blood Ginseng Xumai Pill."

Zhou Lie explained: "Blood Spirit Ginseng is a substance that absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Although the body is just a herb, it is full of spirituality. It is said that the 1000-year-old Blood Spirit Ginseng can transform into a human form, move on its own, and is especially good at earth. The art of escape is something that can be encountered but cannot be sought.”

"This kind of elixir is definitely not available in the medicine halls in the city. I'm afraid I have to go deep into the mountains and swamps to find it."

"Thousand-year-old Blood Spirit Ginseng is a natural treasure. Even if you find it, you need a lot of opportunities."

"Sigh, it's difficult to cure Mr. Xia's disease."

Officials of all sizes in Beihai City shook their heads and sighed.

"My father's physical condition can only delay it for another two months at most. What should we do?"

After Xia Hongyuan heard this, he suddenly felt anxious.

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry about me. The old man has lived for 80 years. Besides, he has been suffering from illness every day for these years. It is better to end the pain as soon as possible and go down to meet the ancestors. Woolen cloth."

Xia Jinglong suddenly laughed, as if he had seen through life and death.

Xia Hongyuan hurriedly comforted him: "Father, don't be discouraged. As long as there is a little hope, don't give up."

"City Lord, I may know where to find Blood Spirit Ginseng."

At this moment, Huang Xiongshi, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.

"Where?"

Xia Hongyuan, who was still listless at first, immediately became energetic after hearing this.

"It is recorded in the classics of our Huang family that about a thousand years ago, our ancestors discovered a blood ginseng on the southern border. At that time, the medicine was not yet mature. Our ancestors left after writing down the location, hoping that the descendants of the Huang family could take it. Return the elixir."

Huang Xiongshi shook his head and said: "Times have changed and the world has changed. So many years have passed. If everyone hadn't talked about the Blood Spirit Ginseng today, I would have almost forgotten about it. Counting the time, the Blood Spirit Ginseng should have matured. ”
