Chapter 329: Immortal fruit and immortal grass is the right way
The First Emperor unified the world and sent people overseas to seek medicine. The old thief Xu Fu took the boys and girls and never returned;
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent people to build a dew tray with a height of 30 feet and a circumference of 1.7 feet using copper. It is said that the dew collected by this dew tray and mixed with jade chips can achieve immortality.
Although the Qin Emperor and Han Wu's actions to practice immortality were not successful, their impact was not small. Because of their actions, many legends about the elixir of life spread throughout the world.
Some people say that taking golden elixirs can lead to immortality; some people say that eating human fruit can lead to immortality; others think that eating mica tablets can lead to immortality, etc.
Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xianzong Li Chun of Tang Dynasty, Emperor Muzong Li Heng of Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Shizong Zhu Houcong of Ming Dynasty were all pursuers of elixir.
Among them, many talented and sage kings were poisoned by taking the elixir of immortality "golden elixir" containing mercury and lead.
Taoist external alchemy, yellow and white art has been passed down. Countless Taoist priests use alchemy furnaces, alchemy cauldrons, water seas, pomegranate jars, sweet snails, mercury extractors, Huachis, grinders, silk sieves, horsetails, etc.
There are many people who refine mercury, sulfur, carbon, tin, lead, copper, gold, silver and other metals. After the elixir is made, they take a sip of it and poison themselves to death in the mountains.
During the process of refining alchemy, I accidentally invented something like gunpowder. Just imagine if you can refine gunpowder, are the raw materials they use harmless?
Later historians agreed that the activities engaged in by these Taoist priests were the earliest chemical research
Alchemy is the pioneer of modern chemistry, and it is well deserved. However, if it is used to achieve longevity, it is completely opposite and is harmful rather than beneficial.
Yang Lin lowered his head and thought repeatedly in his mind about how to persuade Zhao Ji to give up taking the golden elixir.
Did you go to Gen Yue and tell him that gold is a metallic element with atomic number 79, not a compound, and that you can't make a golden elixir from other metals?
Liu Qingshui waved her hand in front of his eyes and asked, "Da Lang?"
"That's outrageous!"
Liu Qingshui was startled when he saw Yang Lin standing up to slap the case and cursed: "The thief Guo Tianxin has made unwarranted slanders and deceived the Holy Lord in order to harm Your Majesty. I, Yang Lin, cannot spare him."
Liu Qingshui's mouth opened slightly, but he hesitated to speak. He thought to himself, isn't this a good start by you? How come others become thieves by using your tricks?
Of course, he didn't dare to say these words. Although he was a good brother, the expenses of his house depended entirely on the dividends from Dalang's Xiulou.
In the past, I often had to go to the palace to ask for money from my sister, but now I send jewelry, expensive supplements, rouge and gouache to the palace every day.
Officials like him who were supported by the Xiulou Chamber of Commerce, as well as Zhang Shangying, Yang Jian, Chao Chaoli, Song Jiang, Xu Zhichang and others, all of Yang Lin's family had soup to drink.
Yang Lin also relied on them, as well as lower-level local officials, to maintain his huge Wanzaiying business empire.
Of course, Yang Tong started doing all this, and now he has begun to slowly hand it over to Yang Tianai.
Liu Qingshui chuckled and said, "Da Lang, what are you going to do?"
Suddenly an idea flashed in Yang Lin's mind. Refining elixirs is so futile. How come your golden elixir can lead to immortality, but I can't do it.
It would be great to get some exotic flowers and fruits, test the ones that are not poisonous, and get some elixirs
At the worst, it would be better to add some nerve-stimulating herbs to make Zhao Ji feel ecstatic than to let him eat mercury and lead.
Just do it, Yang Lin and Liu Qingshui smiled and said, "Brother, I have something urgent to do to see Your Majesty today, so I won't let you eat."
Liu Qingshui knew that Yang Lin could do nothing to stop him when he was doing his business. He stood up with a smile and said: "Then I will remember it for you and make up for it another day."
"sure."
After sending Liu Qingshui away, Yang Lin returned to the inner courtyard and almost bumped into Yun Niang who was yelling in a hurry.
"Hey, Dalang, why are you walking with your head down? I'm so scared."
Yang Lin pinched her cheek, smiled and cursed: "You are such a slut, and you are blaming me when you walk like a windbag."
Li Yunniang has been so busy these days that she even broke her legs running about Yang Lin's wedding. Hearing this, she spat: "Da Lang is getting married, and everyone in the house is so busy that they are sweating like rain. You are the only one who is leisurely and leisurely.
But he bumped into people while walking."
It was so outrageous that Yang Lin laughed and cursed: "Whore, you want to surrender to your master."
Li Yunniang was in a hurry to explain something, so she smiled and pushed him forward. Yang Lin saw her purple peony dress with her head turned up. The jacket and dress were also unique. There were two strips of tailoring sewn on the neck and chest.
The tall and straight collar stands upright, and a line is drawn from the collar, and deep ravines and undulating peaks can be vaguely seen, as white as snow.
Seeing this color, Yang Lin suddenly became interested. Regardless of the fact that there were often maids walking around in the inner long corridor, he pressed Yun Niang against the railing.
"No, no, dear dad, where is this place? Someone in the concierge saw it."
"It's good to watch, it's exciting."
Anyway, there are no men in the inner courtyard, so Yang Lin is very open-minded.
The battle was raging, the inner courtyard was full of flowers, it was summer again, and there were many bees.
Yang Lin was facing the corridor, with the garden behind him. He was feeling comfortable when he accidentally touched a big camellia.
A few wasps, like a formidable enemy, just hit his butt a few times——
In Xu Shuwei's room in the outer courtyard of Zhaodefang, this ruthless man who resigned from his job to become a doctor was holding a small scale and weighing some medicinal materials.
There was a bang, and the door was kicked open. Xu Shuwei was startled. He subconsciously lifted the small scale in his hand forward and made a defensive move: "Who is coming?"
Xu Shuwei was even more surprised when he saw Yang Lin coming in. He saw Yang Lin blushing and panting, about to unbutton his pants.
"Uncle, my nephew is not as good as Long Yang."
"Get out!" Yang Lin cursed, unbuttoned his pants and climbed onto the stool. His butt was swollen.
Xu Shuwei suppressed a smile and said: "This seems to be a wasp sting. Uncle is worthy of being an uncle. Most men can't stand the pain for a long time. Uncle is still so calm and calm. He is really a rare great man in the world."
Yang Lin gritted his teeth and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll have someone catch a few of them and stuff them in your crotch."
After Xu Shuwei kept his mouth quiet, his hands and feet instantly became dexterous, and he quickly took some cooling, analgesic and swelling medicine and applied it externally on Yang Lin's buttocks.
Yang Lin gritted his teeth and endured the pain while asking: "Zhike, do you have the kind of medicine that makes people feel very comfortable after taking it?"
Xu Shuwei felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and quickly shook his head and said: "Uncle, you can't eat that kind of food randomly, you'd better be patient. Although eating that will make you forget the pain, it will make you feel empty and unbearable afterwards, and you will want to eat it again.
Don’t take it easily.”
Yang Lin smiled in his heart, as expected of a master of medicine, you really have everything.
"Is it possible that you take a few non-toxic and harmless herbs, mix them with wild fruits or something, and make a pill that focuses on concentration and calmness?"
When Xu Shuwei heard that he didn't ask for more, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If the raw materials are enough, this won't be a problem. I don't know what disease my uncle wants to treat."
Yang Lin nodded and said: "No disease! The kind that specializes in treating no disease, then you should do it quickly. I have urgent needs. As long as it is harmless and non-toxic, it will do. Although it does not cure the disease, it must be done.
It's effective, and it's best to make people feel happy.
The most important thing is that it cannot be the same as others, and the pills must be beautiful. You can use the raw materials that Zhaodefang has, and if you don’t have any, you can bring them up and I will search for them for you."
Xu Shuwei's eyes lit up. The main reason for the slow progress of medical skills in ancient times is that there are some precious medicinal materials that even doctors have not been exposed to a few times. How can they study the efficacy of medicines.
