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

Chapter 127: The Corpse Reincarnation Family, the Cavernous Paradise

Bringing the dead back to life, punishing evil and promoting good.

"Fellow Daoist, let's go over there and talk." Liang Yue pointed to a corner in the distance.

A few people left, leaving behind the local rich man who was wailing and sweating profusely.

"You deserve it! You're greedy and unfilial!"

The onlookers gloated as they watched the local rich man's servants carry my grandmother and master away.

When Taoist Master Tongtian traveled around, he treated illnesses for free, with the aim of saving the poor and the needy, but he always encountered greedy and petty people, who would often be teased by him and their stories would become gossips for later generations.

"My name is Tongtian. May I ask your name?"

"I am Sun Simiao."

"It turns out to be Brother Sun." Liang Yue suddenly realized.

No wonder he was so interested in medicine, Sun Simiao was already very famous at that time.

Liang Yue asked in confusion: "What is Taoist Sun doing in Chang'an?"

"The emperor summoned me, so I have to come."

Several people talked as they walked.

"Does Taoist Sun have a place to stay? If not, we can come to your place to talk."

"Thank you for the trouble, Taoist friend. The Immortal Rope and the Flame Blade, please come and pay respect to Taoist Master Tongtian!"

"Meet Taoist Master Tongtian."

"This... the name is quite unique." Liang Yue thought of the Sun family more than two hundred years ago.

Wait, Sun Simiao…

"Where is your hometown, Taoist Priest?" Liang Yue asked uncertainly.

"The ancestors of the Three Wu Sun family are the Sun family who transformed into corpses of the Five Immortals." Sun Simiao stroked his beard with a smile on his face.

Sun En, Sun Tai... turned out to be descendants of old friends.

Liang Yue showed an expression that he had seen it all, and clasped his fists in admiration: "I have heard of you for a long time."

Sun Simiao was probably not a direct descendant of the Sun family, but most likely a descendant of a branch.

When the Sun family rebelled, the direct descendants either fled overseas or died completely; it must have been the other descendants who did not participate.

What happened two hundred years ago is already in the past. The story of Liang Yue and Sun is a long one, but if you round it off, they can be considered old friends.

Soon, the group arrived at Tongtian Medical Clinic.

The two colleagues had nothing much to talk about, so they only talked about medical matters.

"Come, have a drink first."

Liang Yue made a pot of tea for the two of them.

After the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty and the Southern Liang Dynasty, tea frying was lost for a time. It was not until the Li family came to power that tea frying became popular again among the people.

"Who is your master, fellow Taoist?"

"I once learned martial arts from a Taoist priest named Xu, who then traveled around the world and disappeared."

"Xu, it seems, is from the Pure Bright Dao."

Strictly speaking, Jingming Dao is no longer a sect, but a religious sect. The sect has branched out, and most medical knowledge originated from Jingming Dao.

The two chatted for a while and got to know each other's abilities.

Liang Yue has a powerful spiritual power and is good at surgery. His surgical techniques are very advanced, even not inferior to those of modern times with technological instruments.

However, his internal medicine skills are mediocre. Internal medicine focuses on the mechanism, and if you don’t understand the mechanism and treat it hastily, it is easy to backfire.

Sun Simiao was good at internal medicine.

The two discussed until late at night.

Sun Simiao did not regard this man as an ordinary young man, but as a fellow Taoist who was equal to himself.

The same is true for Liang Yue.

Sun Simiao is seventy years old this year. He has been immersed in medicine for longer than myself. His understanding of medical theory is far beyond what I can compare to, a person who fishes for three days and rests for two days.

"Thank you for your advice." Liang Yue stood up and expressed his gratitude.

There is a sequence of hearing the truth, and there is a specialization in the surgery industry.

Medicine is a secular way of making a living. Since ancient times, no matter whether it is the barbarians or the Han people, or even the princes who rule a certain area, no one would target a doctor.

Even if Sun Simiao went to the Turks now, he would still be a guest of honor among dignitaries.

The next morning.

Under the tree, Liang Yue meditated and regulated his breathing, then swallowed a Jade Dust and Gold Crystal Pill, allowing his true Qi to circulate and nourish his soul.

In this world, the practice of Taoism is on the right track.

Previously, there were too few materials and a lack of spiritual energy; it was impossible to practice, and one could only barely survive and wait for the next reincarnation. In this world, there are rare flowers and herbs, although there are not many, they are enough for practice.

Willow trees are swaying, and the air carries the smell of smoke from cooking in civilian homes.

The terrible chaotic times have passed, and now we live in a peaceful world. Although the people are in hardship, at least they can still survive.

Squeak.

There was a creaking sound of a wooden door opening from the side room.

Liang Yue opened his eyes upon hearing the voice, only to see that Sun Simiao and others had already left.

"Fellow Daoist, why don't you come with me to the palace to meet the emperor?" Sun Simiao said bluntly.

"Meet the Emperor? Forget it." Liang Yue shook his head, "I don't like worldly power."

"I am not seeking an official position, but to integrate the current medical knowledge."

Sun Simiao's goal was books. The imperial palace had libraries handed down from the Southern Song, Southern Liang, Northern Wei, and Northern Zhou dynasties, with a collection of more than 100,000 books.

Liang Yue thought for a while and said, "Okay."

It's like leaving something for this world.

Several people went to the yamen, and the yamen arranged a carriage for them to go to the palace.

In the carriage, the two discussed how to improve medicine.

"I think that medicine..."

North side of Chang'an.

The royal garden and the banks of the Wei River.

Everyone came to the majestic palace.

Li Shimin lived here. The official came to greet him, and another person just arrived from the other side.

When the man saw Liang Yue, he immediately exclaimed, "Daoist friend Tongtian?"

Liang Yue turned around and saw that it was Li Chunfeng.

"Fellow Daoist Chunfeng, what are you doing?"

"Is your fellow Taoist also going to the palace to see the emperor?"

Li Chunfeng is a young man after all. He had never been exposed to power before, so he was dismissive. Now that he has been exposed to power and tasted the sweetness of power, although he is not addicted to it, he is also a little excited and confused in his heart.

"Exactly."

Soon, the eunuch summoned everyone to the palace.

Following the long street, the group arrived at the power center of the Tang Dynasty.

During this period, the Tang Dynasty was just beginning to establish itself, and had not yet reached its peak of prosperity.

Even so, there are signs of prosperity and prosperity emerging.

In the Hanyuan Hall, a man with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix sat high up. He did not have the pretense of dignity or the air of nobility that was accentuated by his ministers. He just sat there with a faint smile on his face.

The three of them bowed and saluted.

"Please take a seat."

"Master Tongtian is so young." Li Shimin looked at Liang Yue in surprise.

I thought he was an old man like Sun Simiao.

Logically speaking, the background of anyone who came to see the emperor should be investigated, but Li Shimin ignored it.

A few people chatted for a while.

Li Shimin proposed to give the two men official titles and rewards.

Liang Yue and Sun Simiao both refused, only Li Chunfeng agreed to serve as the commander of Chang'an City.

Li Shimin did not force it.

After that, the two lived in an official office outside the imperial city and had access to Chongwenguan.

Apart from seeing patients, the two men usually immerse themselves in studying medical classics.

Two of Sun Simiao's disciples temporarily took over the management of Tongtian Medical Clinic and helped to open the clinic and see patients.

"Medicine is broad and profound. I believe that medicine must be divided into four categories: pediatrics, gynecology, surgery, and internal medicine." Liang Yue put forward his own opinion. In addition to the division of disciplines, it is still necessary to compile a pharmacopoeia to help doctors all over the world identify medicinal herbs.

Sun Simiao was interested, but a little troubled, and said: "It takes a long time to identify medicinal herbs. I'm afraid it won't be done overnight."

"No problem, leave this matter to me."

After all these years of accumulation, if we can't even compile a book on herbal medicine, what's the point?

"I am responsible for the division of subjects."

"It's a word."

……

At night, the Chongwenguan Library.

The air is filled with the faint scent of ink and books, and the hall is airtight.

Liang Yue was reading at his desk, turning the pages very quickly, taking less than one second per page.

The candlelight is dim on the left. The structure of the candlestick here is peculiar. It is a water tank with a copper pillar extending from the tank. On top of the copper pillar is an oil lamp, which should be used to prevent the oil lamp from being knocked over and catching fire.

Liang Yue was not studying medicine, but looking for secret books and techniques.

"The Chongwen Pavilion has a total of 1,600 Taoist scriptures, 90% of which are Taoist theories and scriptures, and the remaining 10% are magic spells."

There are both true and false magic spells, most of which were fabricated by Taoist priests in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, especially the Sun and Zhang families.

Liang Yue searched for a while, occasionally performing a Qi test.

Soon, a total of four spells were found: Flying Spell, True Fire Spell, Earth Escape Spell, and Golden Light Spell.

The flying spell can make yourself fly in the air, or it can make objects fly in the air, depending on their weight.

"Flying spell..."

Liang Yue thought of the Yin-Yang stone in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

Although the Yin-Yang Stone is not located in the legendary location of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, it is better to take it back to prevent someone from getting lucky.

“Even if the Flying Spell cannot make me fly, it can at least reduce the weight of the Yin-Yang Stone. It is better to keep the cave in my hands for now.” Liang Yue thought.

The remaining three small spells are also good, you can practice them when you are bored in your spare time.

Three months later.

Liang Yue compiled the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Materia Medica, and Sun Simiao compiled the Qianjin Prescriptions Jianbian. He believed that what he had learned was still too superficial and still needed to add content in the future, so he used the word "jianbian".

The two cured the queen's chronic illness.

Li Shimin gave Liang Yue a luxury house in Chang'an City and the Golden Order of the True Man Tongtian.

Since then, the two have become famous.

People at that time called Sun Simiao the King of Medicine and Liang Yue the Pharmacist.

There is a luxurious house in the north of the city with red gates and high walls. Two angry stone lions stand at the door, looking very majestic.

At night, a strange stone about one meter tall emerged from the ground in the courtyard. It was round and white on the front and square and black on the back.

Liang Yue jumped out of the soil, his black robe spotless.

He let out a long breath.

"I'm finally relieved."

Leaving the treasure outside always makes one feel a little worried, especially when a hateful tomb robber like Youdu appears. Liang Yue always wants to get the cave heaven.

He patted the cold stone and said with a smile: "I will make a good transformation of you in the future and turn you into a paradise and a place for seclusion."

Who in the world could have imagined that there is such a magical cave?
There are three thousand terracotta warriors in the cave, and affixing puppet talismans will also be a huge help. With his current spiritual strength, controlling a hundred of them is no problem.

Liang Yue thought about it and buried the stone cave again.

"Next time I disembodied my body, I might as well throw the stone into the sea..."

There is a land hundreds of feet below the sea, covered in dust. The sea is so vast, I don’t believe anyone can find it.

After that, Liang Yue lived here, practiced medicine in the East Market, and returned home to live in seclusion in the cave.

His name is known in Chang'an, but his body lives away from the world, like an immortal who enjoys freedom in the mortal world.
