Datang Baoying (Dingzong reign, 762-763 AD), Wei Sixuan, a Chang'an , moved to Luoyang .
Wei Sixuan doesn’t like reading, but likes novel and weird things. His favorite is Taoist art, especially things that can practice immortality and become gods and immortals. However, this is not possible without someone to teach or without expert guidance.
Later, there was a time when Wei Sixuan went to Songshan to play and met an old Taoist priest . He wanted to learn from the old priest, and it would be best if he could become a god and fly to the sky.
The old Taoist priest smiled and said, "If you want to become a god, you have to take the magic pill. However, the Ganoderma lucidum herbs on earth can only make you live long at most, not enough to make you become an immortal. And the elixir magic pills, unless you encounter a god, where can you do it? So, there is only the last way, which is to take the gold liquid."
"Take gold liquid? What is gold liquid? Is it a liquid melted by gold? Is this thing impossible to drink! Master, don't you want to help me!"
The old Taoist priest stroked his beard and said with a smile: "What's the benefit of lying to you? This gold is not gold on earth, you need to be refined by yourself, wouldn't it be that I'm not trying to refine it yourself? I heard the ancients say, 'Alliance of gold and alchemy, become a god and an immortal'? So, I can only tell you that if you want to learn alchemy, once you have refined it, you will definitely become an immortal after taking it. You can be as powerful as Chi Songzi and Guangchengzi."
Hearing this, Wei Sixuan was overjoyed and kowtowed, saying, "Since that's the case, please accept me as your disciple and teach your disciples to alchemy, right?"
"Me? I can't, young man. If I know alchemy, would I still be here? I have been alchemy and alchemy for a long time! Go and find someone else, don't waste time with me, and miss the time to become an immortal."
After saying that, the old Taoist priest waved his hand and asked Wei Sixuan to leave. Wei Sixuan had no choice but to show his respect and leave.
So, in the next time, Wei Sixuan began to travel around, searching for masters, Taoists, alchemists, etc., and asked them if they could alchemy , and whether they would be willing to teach themselves alchemy.
As a result, ten years have passed, and Wei Sixuan has met many experts, a few of them have hundreds of them, but none of them have succeeded. These people either don’t know alchemy or just know and don’t know how to operate it. Finally, I met a Taoist priest who said he knew about alchemy, but he became confused as he practiced.
Wei Sixuan wasted ten years and a lot of money, but he failed to learn alchemy. In anger, he stopped studying this thing and went home to live a good life. Marry a wife, enjoy the delicious food and scenery, and live a free and easy life.
Of course, Wei Sixuan was still thinking about becoming a god after all, so when he met someone like a master, he still stayed enthusiastically and asked for advice.
A few years later, a lay Buddhist (ancient person who practiced Buddhism at home) claimed to be Xin Rui, and found Wei Sixuan's family and visited him.
Wei Sixuan saw that Xin Rui looked very average, very thin and tall, but he looked too shabby, so it was not an exaggeration to say that he was a beggar. He was wearing a torn robe outside, and the clothes inside were hard to see clearly, but he was sure that they were very dirty and his face was not very good. He seemed to have been hungry for a long time and had a pale face and thin skin.
When he saw that this person didn’t look like a master, Wei Sixuan didn’t want to accept him.
Xin Rui seemed to see it, smiled slightly, and said to Wei Sixuan, "I am a patient and a poor person, so that's why. It's normal for you to look down on me. But I heard that you like to practice Taoism and want to find a master. There are many talented people and strangers in the world in the mansion. And I happen to understand some of this, not worse than them, so I dare to come to your house. I hope you can accept me."
Wei Sixuan thought of the words again, "A person should not behave like a person", so he agreed and invited Xin Rui into the house and asked someone to prepare a room for him.
Since living in Wei Sixuan's home, Xin Rui has begun to tell Wei Sixuan some strange things, mostly those adventures of gods becoming gods, either eating treasures, practicing hard, or being enlightened by gods.
Wei Sixuan was very polite to him and arranged his diet for him every day. Some people specially made him bed, folded quilts, bathed and changed clothes, etc. Xin Rui also thanked Wei Sixuan very much, but said nothing, as if it was natural.
is like this. After a while, Xin Rui is still like this. He always tells stories, but does not teach Wei Sixuan how to refine gold and elixirs. Wei Sixuan was getting less and less good at him, and he was even very impatient.
A few days later, Xin Rui suffered from a strange disease. He seemed to have many tumors on his body, and there was blood inside. After the tumors were broken, pus or blood kept coming out, making a very smelly smell. The person who was responsible for taking care of Xin Rui could no longer stand it and would rather die than go to his room.
When Wei Sixuan's family found out, they were far away from Xin Rui and pinched their noses when they saw him. Some of them have a bad temper and have already cursed Xin Rui, asking him to leave quickly and not to disgust people here.
However, Xin Rui was so calm that no matter how sarcastic or scolded others, he would not leave, and he still had food and drink at Wei Sixuan's house.
A few days later, several more sorcerers came to the mansion. Wei Sixuan was very happy and set up a banquet to invite these sorcerers to dinner. However, Wei Sixuan no longer had a good impression of Xin Rui, and Xin Rui had a strange disease, so he did not invite Xin Rui to dinner. After the banquet was put down, Wei Sixuan and the warlocks raised their glasses and were about to drink and eat. At this time, Xin Rui suddenly rushed in and said to Wei Sixuan angrily: "Young master, why don't you call me for a banquet? Do you think I'm useless? Humph, I can't eat it, you don't want to eat it!"
Then, Xin Rui didn't care about etiquette and shame, took off his pants and started peeing. While peeing, he also controlled the direction of the faucet and spilled his urine everywhere.
This Xinrui man looks thin, and there is a lot of urine in the urine blister, and it is strong enough. He walked around and not only urinated on Wei Sixuan's food desk, but also on the food desks of several sorcerers on both sides.
When several warlocks saw it, they were furious. Due to etiquette, they did not come to beat Xin Rui. Wei Sixuan was also very angry and was about to get angry when the servant outside rushed in, pulled Xin Rui outside and cursed. If it weren't for the fear of dirty hands, several servants would have beaten Xin Rui.
Xin Rui stood up and walked out without looking back, and suddenly disappeared.
Wai Sixuan and the warlocks were shocked when they saw it, and the servants outside were also shocked.
"Look, look, this madman... this master's urine has changed, turned, turned... What is this? Look!" A warlock looked back at the food case and shouted loudly.
Everyone looked at the food case and found that Xinrui's urine had changed, and the light was brilliant, like purple gold.
"This is 'Purple Gold Liquid', a treasure of the ages! In this way, that expert must have become a violet gold (purple gold, platinum, gold, collectively known as the three major golds, which are a natural metal)!" A sorcerer was knowledgeable and said it.
"What a pity, we don't know the masters, otherwise he would be able to teach us the key points and help us cultivate immortals."
Wei Sixuan regretted it very much, but after the purple gold liquid cooled down, it became purple gold, and he could also sell it for a good price. This is also considered Xin Rui's repayment to him.
