Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 2: Refuse Immortal Cultivating

What the heck is eating jujube pills, and how can there be a cure for all poisons? Did we meet a scammer?

Li Qingjun looked annoyed. He was about to say something, but Li Qinglin waved his hand to stop him. He said to Qin Yi, “In this trip to the mountains to search for immortals, we don’t have much time. Little brother has lived here for a long time and is familiar with the situation. I don’t know if you can follow us up the mountain as a guide. There will be a heavy payment.”

“No.” Qin Yi stood up lazily, turned around and walked into the house, “What kind of immortals are you looking for. Eat enough and sleep well, carefree and no worries, isn’t it an immortal?”

The young boy Li Qingjun said angrily, “Hey! What kind of attitude is this?!”

Qin Yi had already entered the house.

Li Qingjun was about to get off his horse angrily, but he was grabbed by his elder brother, “Don’t mess around.”

“Why are you so polite to him? He is obviously a liar. There is no 1 cure for all poisons!”

Li Qinglin reined in his horse and left, “Li Liu reported that there were quite a few people who were poisoned in the mountain recently, and a young man surnamed Qin in the village healed them with 1 medicine. Maybe he is familiar with the special poisonous miasma in the mountain, and the medicine is targeted for it. It should be more suitable than the medicine we brought. Besides, from what you’ve seen and heard, don’t you really think this young boy is a bit special?”

“Most of them are posturing, and the villagers cooperate with him to create some atmosphere so that they can scam.”

Li Qinglin couldn’t help but laugh.

Li Qingjun quickly followed his brother and asked, “Since brother thinks he is useful, why don’t you insist on asking him to guide you?”

Li Qinglin smiled slightly, “Don’t worry… The guide leads the way, but can he lead you to find the immortal?”

Li Qingjun was stunned again.

Obviously not.

They didn’t come to climb the mountain to watch the sunrise but to try to find immortals in the mountains. The mountain was not too big, and rumors of the so-called immortal affinity had been circulating for many years. Which inch of land had not been investigated? So, without the so-called destination, there was naturally no correct route. Going in was just a test of affinity. So why did they need a guide?

Li Qingjun was a little discouraged for a moment, and his upright shoulders slumped slightly, “So brother is just like everyone else. You didn’t take this journey of seeking immortality seriously…”

Li Qinglin looked back at where he came from, “That Qin Yi, what he said at the end was quite interesting…”

“Village scum, self-righteous and just talking nonsense. I’ll put a hole in his body with my spear, then I’ll see how carefree he is.”

“Ha…”

The sound went further away. Qin Yi was lying in the room with his arms pillowed on his head, and the mace was resting on the head of the bed. He could vaguely hear the conversation between the 2 brothers. In the end, he laughed as if he thought Li Qingjun’s words were very funny.

A voice suddenly appeared in his sea of ??consciousness, “Why are you laughing? These 2 brothers seem to have some decent attaintments in martial arts. Maybe they really have the strength to poke a hole in you.”

This voice went straight to the soul, and no one knew where it came from. In fact, it couldn’t be regarded as a voice, and its gender was indistinguishable. It was like forming a sentence directly in his mind, which was extremely weird. Qin Yi seemed to be very used to it as he said lazily, “I’m laughing because there are really girls who disguise themselves as men in this world. Why does she think others can’t see it?”

The voice paused for a while and said, “How do you know she’s a girl? Young people don’t have Adam’s apple, so it’s normal to have a high-pitched voice.”

“Because you don’t have a nose, so you can’t smell her fragrance.”

“…”

“Besides, how can there be such a beautiful young boy? His little face is full of collagen, his eyebrows are picturesque, his lips are red and his teeth are white. He pretends to be heroic. I can feel that girly vibe even with my eyes closed. Do you think there is a beauty filter?”

.

“What is collagen? What the heck is a beauty filter?”

“…None of your business.”

The voice sighed, “It doesn’t matter if she is a man or a woman. You see, how many people in the world are looking for immortals and asking for a way. They are so devout. If they really could have the immortal affinity, they will be willing to kneel for 3 days and 3 nights. Why would you refuse to cultivate to be an immortal?”

“Ain’t I already cultivating to be an immortal? You see, I plan to stay up all night again tonight…”

“Is this also called immortal cultivating? Don’t fool me like how you fooled them.”

Qin Yi said coldly, “Don’t fool me like a fool too!”

While talking, he casually threw the mace into the foot washing water by the bed.

The voice in the sea of ??consciousness became annoyed, “I didn’t say anything even after you used me to pound medicine and hammer nails. Now you even put me in the foot washing water, I will get you for that!”

The mace ‘jumped’ out of the water and hit Qin Yi. Qin Yi leaned against the head of the bed and kicked up, hitting the handle of the mace. The mace spun a few times in the air, hit the wall with a ‘pa’, slid down, bounced twice on the ground and stopped.

Strong resentment overflowed from the mace.

“Hey, Stick Stick…”

“I’ve said it 10,000 times, my name is Liu Su.”

“A mace’s weapon spirit, called Liu Su… Are these 2 people in the same style? Who is your original owner, do you know?”

Liu Su sneered and remained silent.

Qin Yi asked again, “Stick Stick, do you think these 2 can handle the problems in the mountain?”

Since Qin Yi crossed over, the mountain had also begun to change. One was that there was more poisonous miasma in the mountain, and people always got sick when entering the mountain. Poisonous miasma was not poison, but the resentment in the space brought out by Liu Su. The tiger with wings had nothing to do with Liu Su, but the result of the ‘beastkin transformation miasma’ planted by the 2 earlier.

Both issues were related to Qin Yi.

Liu Su lazily said, “I asked you to practice immortality with me, but you just won’t. Otherwise, how could you not be able to deal with a tiger that has just started to transform into a beastkin for a few days?”

“Because it won’t kill me, but you will.”

It had been a while since the time travel. When Qin Yi recalled the original scene, he was able to sort out what was going on.

It was Liu Su who was possessing the body just as he crossovered. It even wanted to devour his soul directly. As a result, Liu Su vomited out his soul that contained the cultural differences that were completely incompatible. Instead, Qin Yi possessed the body. The soul power that Liu Su had accumulated for an unknown number of years became extremely weak due to this severe setback, and she retreated into the mace to stay alive.

So Liu Su claimed to teach him how to cultivate to be an immortal to help him recast his body in the future.

But Qin Yi dared not learn.

The soul of the original owner had been swallowed by Liu Su, which was definitely not a good thing. God knows if the cultivation technique it teaches has a hidden motive so that it could possess the body again? Qin Yi thought he was not that smart and dared not try it.

Originally, Qin Yi even wanted to throw away this mace, but he was really too curious about the world of cultivation, so he finally took it with him. It’s weak now anyway, isn’t it?

Really fragrant.

Liu Su sneered, “Anyway, I can tell you that this resentment will soon dissipate without anyone solving it. But this tiger has already begun to transform into beastkin. Just with the beastkin binding array I taught you, you can’t bind it for long, especially you don’t have cultivation yet. Sooner or later it will start to hurt people. To completely solve this problem, you have to cultivate with me.”

Qin Yi pursed his lips and thought for a while before saying, “Anyway, I will solve it.”

Liu Su sneered, “Your solution is to spread this immortal tale that no one cares about anymore, so as to attract the immortal seekers to get rid of the tiger?”

“At least all, they are more reliable than the villagers. I think the Li Family’s brother and sister seem to be capable.”

Liu Su laughed, “If you want to go your way, I have a better idea.”

“What?”

“The brother and sister of the Li Family are either rich or noble. As long as they are killed by the tiger, the tiger will definitely be skinned to death. There is absolutely no chance of survival. Instead, you remind them to run if they are defeated and the tigers will not chase…”

“Bah!” Qin Yi turned over, ran to the corner of the room, picked up the mace, and stuffed it into the foot washing water again.

Liu Su yelled in the water, “You soft-hearted idiot! If they escape from the tiger’s mouth, they will first take out their anger on you!”

Qin Yi ignored her. He just turned around and walked to the corner of the room. There was a small furnace lit with fire in the corner of the room. The clay pot was slightly hot, exuding the faint fragrance of medicinal herbs.

The arts of apothecary and alchemy and some simple array arrangements were not only Qin Yi’s scrambling to satisfy his curiosity about the cultivation of this world, but also the proof that Liusu hoped to show ‘I can really teach you to cultivate to be an immortal’. Both of them hit it off in this regard. One learned seriously while the other taught attentively without rowdy arguments.

Qin Yi stared at the fire for a while and counted the time silently. He took another jug ??of wine, walked to the window and sipped it.

The sky was completely dark, and the sky was full of stars and moons.

The moonlight shone everywhere in the world. There were insects stinging and cicadas chirping. He was slightly drunk with the wine. Qin Yi had always felt that such an environment itself was almost immortal. Away from the hustle and bustle of carriages and horses, far away from intrigue, how much do the worldly people pay attention to the brilliance of the moonlight and the fragrance of the paddy fields? Looking for immortals. In the end, what they find is just my deception with ulterior motives.

Qin Yi had always felt that if the problems in the mountain could be solved, there was nothing wrong with living here for the rest of his life. In my previous life, I fell off a cliff and died. Traveling to this point is tantamount to regaining a life. Wouldn’t it be good to just enjoy life?

He spread the ‘The Good Song’, not because he wanted to spread the immortal vibe, but he was truly expressing his feelings after seeing many immortal seekers.

“Tell me, how beautiful this night is…” He murmured, as if in he was sleep talking.

Liu Su, who was angry with him, let out a ‘cheh’ as if disdainful.

In fact, it was precisely for this reason that it had always believed that Qin Yi was very suitable for cultivating to become an immortal. He had a very calm aura, no attachment, no arrogance, and no idea of ??becoming a marquis in the world. He looked like he could spend his whole life in a hut. This kind of person was more suitable for cultivation than those who piously kowtow with strong attachment and motive.

It was a pity he wouldn’t do it.

In fact, God knows, the so-called indifference to the world, in Qin Yi’s world, it also had another term: Otaku.
