"Yes." The old lady nodded slightly, and said again: "At that time, all the medical books handed down by the ancestors were in the accompanying luggage. It is said that there were at least three or five boxes. The ancestor killed all the way, so he stuffed a genealogy tree and two phoenix bone and rattan bracelets into the ancestor's arms, and then the ancestor's father burned all the medical books with fire oil, and since then, the Jiang family's medical skills have been lost..."
Ye Chen couldn't help sighing: "Countless classics were lost in this kind of turmoil. Your ancestors in the Tang Dynasty knew what a phoenix bone vine is, but now, in the whole of China and even in the world, few people still know what this kind of phoenix bone vine is." Things, our current traditional culture and Chinese medicine are all citing classics, but I don�t know how many classics have long been buried in the long river of history..."
Speaking of this, Ye Chen suddenly remembered something, and asked in surprise: "By the way, Grandma Jiang, you said there are two bracelets?"
"Yes!" The old lady said firmly: "The two bracelets are made of phoenix bone rattan. They were originally a pair, and they were the family heirlooms of the Jiang family. The bracelet was made of phoenix bone vine, so he asked the ancestor if he would give him one of the bracelets, and in return, he would accept the ancestor as a disciple. The ancestor was helpless at the time, so naturally he agreed , and Old Ancestor Meng is indeed a gentleman, he only wanted one of the phoenix bone vines, and asked the ancestor to keep the other."
Ye Chen asked again: "Then your ancestor also learned spiritual energy from this old ancestor Meng?"
"No." The old lady shook her head and said with emotion: "It is said that it is difficult to find one among millions of people who have the talent to master spiritual energy. Not to mention my ancestors, even the wife and children of the ancestor Meng didn't have this talent..."
As she said that, the old lady pointed to the picture of a child reading a book on the wall, and introduced: "My ancestors didn't have that talent, so they worked as a servant boy next to Old Ancestor Meng. Grandfather Meng raised him by his side and taught him to read and paint. These three paintings were all made by our ancestors when they were old, and the last one is his self-portrait when he was old."
Ye Chen felt emotional when he heard it, and couldn't help sighing: "It seems that this old ancestor Meng is indeed a god-man, not only has great supernatural powers, knowledge, and fine painting, but also has compassion, which is really rare..."
"Yes." The old lady nodded slightly, and then said again: "My family's ancestors lived with Ancestor Meng for more than sixty years, until 820 A.D., Yuanhe fifteen years of the Tang Dynasty..."
"At that time, Ancestor Meng was nearly 160 years old, and our ancestor was also 71 years old. At that time, Ancestor Meng told my ancestor that if his cultivation level could not break through for a long time, or if he could not refine the I'm afraid it's hard to live to be two hundred years old, so I decided to find another more suitable cave and concentrate on retreat; "
"When the master and servant parted, Meng Laozu gave my ancestors some money and a elixir, and ordered my ancestors to live in the world. He promised my ancestors that when he found the way to longevity, he would come back and give my ancestors a gift. Chance;"
"Although my ancestors were heartbroken, they also knew that the fate of the two masters and servants was doomed, so after the two said goodbye, my ancestors entered the world and married a woman in Jiangyang Mansion not far from here to continue the incense;"
"Three years after marriage, he brought his wife and children back here to settle down again. He hoped to stay here to guard the mausoleum of Meng Laozu's wife and children. At the same time, he also hoped to wait here until Meng Laozu returned. Generations, over a thousand years..."
Ye Chen was a little puzzled, and said, "Your family ancestor was already 70 years old when he parted with Meng Laozu, and he was able to go down the mountain to marry and even continue the incense. This is really unbelievable under the environment back then. With the elixir given by Old Ancestor Meng before he left?"
"That's right." The old lady sighed: "Ancestor Meng gave my ancestors two pills, one was given by my ancestors when they were fifty years old, and the other was given when they parted. The ancestral precepts left by the ancestors said that these two elixirs are the most precious treasures in the world. Just taking one can make a person 20 years younger. It's only thirty years old."
Ye Chen was shocked, and blurted out, "Grandma Jiang, isn't the elixir that Ancestor Meng gave your ancestors called Huichun elixir?!"
When the old lady heard Ye Chen say the words Huichun Pill, she asked in shock, "Grandpa...you...you also know Huichun Pill?!"
Ye Chen nodded, and said calmly, "I know."
There was a sentence that Ye Chen didn't say.
That is, in fact, when he came, he specially prepared a Rejuvenation Pill for Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang couldn't help admiring: "You are indeed a person with great supernatural powers just like Old Ancestor Meng!"
Ye Chen only smiled slightly, but was even more horrified in his heart.
So far, although he has benefited a lot from the "Nine Xuantian Jing", he still doesn't know who wrote the "Nine Xuantian Jing".
Now, when he learned that Meng Changsheng had already refined the Rejuvenation Pill more than a thousand years ago, and gave two Rejuvenation Pills to the ancestors of the Jiang family, he couldn't help asking himself in his heart: "Could it be that what I got? Is the "Nine Xuantian Jing" written by Meng Changsheng? The antique that the father-in-law knocked over in the Jiqing Hall of the Song family was indeed a Tang Dynasty jade pot and spring vase, and Meng Changsheng was also a person from the Linde period of the Tang Dynasty , In this way, the general dynasties are consistent, and with the information related to Huichun Pill that I learned from Grandma Jiang, this inference seems to be really possible..."
However, Ye Chen knew very well in his heart that it was impossible to conclude that "Nine Xuantian Jing" was written by Meng Changsheng based on these two points alone.
If you really want to prove this matter, at least you have to find more clues.
So, he put this question to the bottom of his heart for the time being, and asked Old Madam Jiang: "Grandma Jiang, may I ask how long did that old ancestor of your family live to die?"
The old lady said: "The ancestor of my family died in 863 A.D., the fourth year of Xiantong, and lived to be 113 years old. Because the wife and children of the ancestor Meng were buried in the middle of the back mountain, so my ancestor was buried in the middle of the mountain after his death. At the foot of the back mountain, the descendants of our Jiang family will also be buried at the foot of the mountain."
Ye Chen couldn't help sighing: "The old man lived to be 113 years old, minus the 40-year life span of the two rejuvenation pills, he also lived to be 73 years old by himself, which was very rare in that era."
According to the statistics of some unreliable scholars, the average life expectancy of the Tang Dynasty was about 40 or even 50 years old. JrNovels.com
