Chapter 295: Buddha's View: 1 Drop of Water, 8 Insects
Chapter 295: Buddha sees one drop of water and eighty-four thousand insects
"It is my honor to be friends with the Immortal. Let me have a drink!"
Moonlight and night.
The flower boat was still bustling.
The twelve courtesans have all finished their competition. There was no change in the bottom six, and there was no change in the top five. The only difference was that the seventh courtesan was overtaken by the sixth courtesan.
Of course, the sixth courtesan will not return to the upper six floors, after all, she has already sold herself.
So, the result is.
The seventh courtesan to appear was sent to the sixth floor to officially sell herself to customers, and then the seventh floor was vacant. They would parachute in a new prostitute to fill the vacancy in the future.
Finally, because there are often multiple courtesans selling their bodies in the lower six floors, in addition to the large competition every month, there is also a small competition every half a month, which is to select the courtesans from each floor from the lower six floors to serve as the face of the store.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Li Zhongren.
He would not copy poems here to seduce those courtesans, as that would make him feel embarrassed.
He also had no intention of experiencing it with real guns and live ammunition.
So, he followed his new friend, the third son of Prince Yong's mansion, back to the palace.
On the one hand, he really didn't have anywhere to go.
But there is another point, that is, he practiced the Golden Silkworm Skill, which was originally a life-saving skill belonging to Prince Yong's youngest son. If he had not crossed his legs, this skill would have been taken back by now.
Of course, as he said before, this technique has its pitfalls.
He didn't know whether it was to target Prince Yong's Mansion, or whether the person who spread the skills just wanted to be like Du Juan, to let others raise their children for them and reap the benefits in the end, but it was undeniable that there must be a conspiracy behind this.
It just so happened that he came out of the forest to trigger cause and effect, so he might as well go and solve the matter.
The only problem was that he didn't know where to start.
Fortunately, the third young master was a big mouth and told everything. Before he asked, he told him many things related to the palace, especially his youngest brother. Although he was sad, he also asked Li Zhongren if there was any way to save him.
In this regard, Li Zhongren could only say, let me take a look first. After all, the signal in this world is not good, and the complete version of the good stuff cannot be transmitted directly. Otherwise, no matter what your congenital deficiencies are, a bottle of improved invigorating potion can solve the problem.
"Brother Li, this way please."
It was already the next day.
After bathing, changing clothes and having a good sleep in the palace, the third young master took Li Zhongren to his younger brother's residence, a small house in the center of the lake.
This is a lake within the palace.
The water is diverted from the Qinhuai River and it is a man-made attraction.
As for why this is so.
The truth is that his younger brother is weak and sickly. Once any disease spreads in the outside world, he will be infected as well. Every time he struggles on the brink of life and death.
Therefore, in the end, Prince Yong had no choice but to isolate his son. If anyone wanted to get close to him, they had to use special means to remove any diseases they might be carrying.
Of course, cultivators of the Tao are not included. After all, cultivators of the Tao are basically not infected by worldly diseases.
"Brother, do you feel better today?"
The Third Young Master really had no qualms about his younger brother. He picked up the teacup on the table in a very familiar manner and gulped down a big gulp of water.
The frail young master was sitting by the fire, warming himself in some thick clothes.
"Thank you for your concern, brother. It's the same as always. Who is this?"
"My friend, Brother Li, is an immortal cultivator."
A man has four iron qualities. Overnight, the relationship between Li Zhongren and the third young master had become such that they could talk about anything. Especially when the third young master discovered that Li Zhongren seemed different from those high-ranking immortals, but more like a human being, he was more willing to talk to him.
"I'll bring him over for you to see."
"Brother, I..."
"Oh, it's like hitting a date with a long pole, it's a mixed bag, what if it cures you?"
"In that case, thank you very much, Brother Li."
"polite."
Li Zhongren didn't waste any words. He sat next to the young master and reached out to grab his pulse. Some silk threads came out from his fingertips and wrapped around his wrist. Some silk threads that were invisible to the naked eye went directly into his body silently, like a camera, exploring everything inside his body.
"The young master has two health problems."
After a moment, Li Zhongren let go of his hand, looked at the Third Young Master and spoke.
"First, he is physically weak, with both Qi and blood deficiency."
"Second, his immune system is failing."
"Ah? Brother Li, what is the immune system?"
"This is a special term in my heritage."
Li Zhongren explained calmly, and at the same time, the young master looked at him with curiosity.
"Third Young Master, Young Master, you should all know that there are diseases in this world, right?"
"Correct."
"Have you ever thought about what these diseases and plagues are?"
"I've never thought about this."
"There is a saying in Buddhism that when a Buddha looks at a drop of water, he sees 84,000 insects. In fact, this is true. My master once studied that all diseases in this world are caused by these insects that are invisible to the naked eye. They are endless and spread all over the place."
"Ah this."
"Don't think I'm joking. With certain methods, even mortals can see it. If you want to broaden your horizons, I have a magic weapon that can satisfy your curiosity."
"This... there's no rush."
The Third Young Master took a deep breath, his heart filled with excitement. On the one hand, he heard strange things that he had never heard before, which was like delicious food to a plain and boring person like him. On the other hand, after looking for so many immortals, someone finally seemed to be able to explain the problem from a different angle, which perhaps gave him hope.
"So, Brother Li, what you mean is that we actually live in a world surrounded by countless 'bugs', so why don't everyone get sick?"
“Immune system?”
The young master rolled his eyes and spoke cautiously.
"Yes, it is the immune system. You can think of the immune system as a group of invisible bugs, but they are built into our bodies. If our bodies are compared to a country, then the immune system is the soldier that defends our country."
"They are on the front line, fighting against the endless attacks of insects."
"If you two have had experience, you would know that some people never get sick in their entire lives, while others always get sick. If the source of the disease is from an epidemic, then it is related to the immune system."
"So, my immune system is a bunch of idiots?"
"Do not."
"That is."
"My dear, you have almost no immune system."
Li Zhongren said in a decisive tone.
"No immune system?" It was the afternoon of the next day when Li Zhongren met Prince Yong. After all, although his remarks were somewhat shocking, they were self-consistent. In particular, when Li Zhongren took out a microscope and allowed Prince Yong and his group to clearly see the microscopic world, the other party was completely impressed by him.
"yes.
Li Zhongren continued what he had not finished saying to the young master and the others.
"In fact, if it weren't for you, Your Majesty, who spared no expense in investing all kinds of secret medicines and magic in the young master, given his physical condition, he would not have lived such a long life."
"So, can it be cured?"
Prince Yong took a deep breath and asked nervously.
"Okay, I compare the immune system to an army. Since the young master doesn't have an immune system, we can just recruit soldiers for them and let them have an immune system."
"That damn thief!"
Suddenly, Prince Yong slapped his thigh hard.
"So, that copy of the Golden Silkworm Skill can indeed save my son's life."
Obviously, if his youngest son could practice the Golden Silkworm Skill to perfection, he would be reborn and have an immune system.
"I have also heard about the prince's affairs. Can I have a word with you?"
"Oh?"
Prince Yong rolled his eyes and waved his hand, and everyone else left. He was possessed by the power of the mortal world and was not afraid of these cultivators.
"how."
"There is something wrong with the Golden Silkworm Technique."
"What do you mean?"
"Literally, this technique means that when you practice it to the extreme, you will transform from a cocoon into a butterfly. However, in fact, it lacks the step of becoming a butterfly, and will continue to transform into a cocoon. Your Highness, you might as well think about what happened to the silkworms that were pulled out of their cocoons in the end."
"How did you find out?"
Prince Yong rolled his eyes and looked at Li Zhongren.
However, Li Zhongren took out the visualization diagram calmly. Prince Yong recognized it at a glance. This visualization diagram was the one he had lost. He still had some eyesight.
"You are Wanli Lone Bat?"
Li Zhongren shook his head. What a joke! He didn't want the name of this rapist.
Then, he shook slightly, and instantly the silk wrapped around the room, and then disappeared.
Obviously, this skill is at the lowest level.
And the time is only about half a month.
Prince Yong knew that there were only two possibilities. First, the other party had already acquired similar skills. Second, the other party was a genius.
But what is certain is that it definitely won’t be the solitary bat.
"The Wanli Lone Bat accidentally came to my retreat place, and I killed it and obtained this technique. I was very curious at first, but after studying it carefully, I found the problem with this technique, so I spent a little time to modify it."
"So, you want my son to practice this visualization diagram?"
"No."
Li Zhongren shook his head.
"No matter what the original purpose of the Golden Silkworm Technique was, one thing is certain, it can indeed be mastered quickly, while my improved version requires sufficient talent. Regardless of the young master's talent, his current body is not capable of practicing that technique."
"I am speaking out about this for only one purpose."
"cause and effect."
Prince Yong said calmly, there is no one in the world who treats you well for no reason. If someone treats you well, it must be because he or she is asking for something. When facing a cultivator, the biggest possibility is that the other party is asking for cause and effect. In this way, everything can be explained.
"Yes, I think there is definitely a big cause and effect here. After this matter is resolved, I won't have to go out again for many years at least."
Li Zhongren nodded.
"Of course, that's a later story. Right now, I will treat the young master first."
"How to cure the disease?"
Li Zongren took out a metal syringe from his arms. It came from the cyberpunk world. Since this thing did not involve the supernatural, it was easier to transmit.
This is also the biggest advantage of the technology side.
No compression required.
"This thing, called the Immune Corps, is made up of countless artificially created nano-antibodies. After being injected into the human body, they will become a line of defense to protect the human body. Moreover, it can also alleviate the problem of the young master's weak body from the root. I dare not say that the young master can also practice, but at least he can marry and have children like normal people, without any problems."
"it is good!"
"If it works, I will definitely use a large sum of money to thank the Immortal!"
"Your Majesty, are you really going to use that man's method?"
"use!"
Prince Yong nodded.
"Don't employ a person you doubt, and don't doubt a person you employ. We can't delay the issue of the fourth brother any longer. We're going to die anyway, so why not give it a try? As for the rest, let's wait until the fourth brother survives."
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
The prince's military advisor did not try to persuade him any further. After all, he knew the prince's temper very well.
Stay in the center of the lake.
The young master was lying on the bed. After Li Zhongren disinfected the back of his hand, he sent a syringe of self-replicating nanorobots into his body. Silver liquid flowed in his blood vessels and spread throughout his body along the blood.
At that moment, the young master felt that his life was easier than ever before.
"Nutritional solution."
Li Zhongren spoke again, and the servant beside him pushed the IV bottle that had been prepared long ago, and Li Zhongren personally gave him the infusion. After all, it takes a huge amount of energy for nanorobots to transform the body, so Li Zhongren was giving the young master a glucose solution.
Not far away, the prince, the third young master, and the princess were all watching this scene quietly.
It was visible to the naked eye that the young master's complexion was getting better and better, and even his thin and shriveled body was beginning to become plump.
This scene made everyone present smile with joy.
Of course, Li Zhongre was not idle either. He was observing everyone's expressions and finally came to the conclusion that this family did not have so many intrigues. Although the fourth child was not Wang Fei's biological son, it did not prevent her from being nice to him. After all, the other party had no right to inherit the family, and there was no conflict between the two sides.
This is only possible if Prince Yong dies one day and the throne is not yet determined.
"Thank you for your grace in giving me a new life."
The young master felt better than ever before, but his good upbringing allowed him to control his situation and he bowed politely to Li Zhongren.
Li Zhongren did not pretend, but accepted the other party's compliment very naturally.
"You still have to stay here for the next few days and don't give the disease a chance to take advantage. You can leave only when the nano-antibodies are fully activated."
"Don't worry, Immortal. I have survived all these years. These few days won't make a difference."
