When she first saw the entrance of Jindan Pavilion, Li Yao felt that the atmosphere here was completely different from yesterday, because she found that there were more people outside the Jindan Pavilion and even on the roof of the attic who did not belong to the Taoist temple.

These people were all tall and burly, wearing elegant clothes, holding horizontal knives in their hands, with stern expressions, and their eyes were constantly scanning the surroundings like hawks, as if they would not let go of any disturbance nearby.

Seeing this situation, Li Yao felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart for no reason. His heart, which was originally pulsing slowly, unexpectedly started to beat faster involuntarily.

Calm down! Li Yao, don’t be nervous!

When soldiers come, they will block it; when water comes, earth covers it.

No matter who you face, you must keep your face straight.

Forget everything the epitaph says for a moment!

You are not Princess Pingyang, you are not Li Zhaoyue, you are not Li Tianju, you are not Mingzhen!

You, not her!

You are just Li Yao!

………………

Li Yao followed Jingyun unhurriedly and applied hypnosis on himself without hesitation. Through continuous mental suggestions and induction instructions that gradually deepened the hypnotic effect, he waited until he reached the door of Jindan Pavilion.

By then, her mental consciousness had completely entered a stable imaginary state.

"Jingyun, Junior Sister Li, you are finally here."

As soon as the two girls arrived, Zhong Kui, who had been guarding the door of Jindan Pavilion, immediately walked up and gave Li Yao an encouraging look. Then he heard Ju Guozhen say loudly: "Li Yao, come in! Zhengnan,

Jingyun, you two stay outside and close the door."

"Yes, Master."

The door behind him closed, and an unknown challenge began.

As Li Yao walked, he used the corner of his sight to scan all the five people sitting on the floor without leaving a trace.

Because Li Yao was in a deep state of self-hypnosis, she saw Wang Yuanzhi, whom she had met once and had sharp eyes. She did not show any surprise on her face. Instead, she took the lead in giving a respectful greeting to him and her master Ju Guozhen.

And when I saw the shocked look of an old man who had dropped the whisk in his hand without realizing it, and the kind-faced old man who opened his mouth wide and exposed two rows of intact healthy teeth, I directly chose to ignore it in my heart, and even clearly heard the elderly man in front of me.

When the young man with Caucasian appearance uttered the word "Sister", her expression was also as calm as ever. It was as if Mount Tai had collapsed in front of her but her expression remained unchanged, and the elk was rising to the left but her eyes were unblinking.

And all this was seen by Li Yao's master Ju Guozhen.

He now fully understands: It's really incredible that he actually accepted such an extraordinary female disciple. He should have given her a good fortune!

After a long while, the people who were shocked on the spot came back to their senses when they saw Li Yao's calm appearance, and began to look at Li Yao with a scrutinizing gaze, and soon they found on her body

There are certain characteristics that do not match the person they imagined, and the most obvious difference is that the woman in front of them is too young.

The young king, whose expression returned to normal, found that this woman who looked very similar to his elder sister did not recognize him at all, so he immediately assumed the posture of a superior and asked, knowingly: "Are you the female Taoist who joined the giant mage yesterday?

?”

"It's the disciple." As soon as Li Yao came in, he found that everyone here was headed by this young nobleman, so he knew that his status must be extremely high. He immediately stepped forward and bowed to him, saying respectfully: "My name is Li Yao. Mu Zizhi

Li, who means "there is a ray at sunrise", this is the first time we meet, and you still don't know Mr. Lang's surname?"

The king saw that Li Yao's conversation was neither humble nor arrogant, and his behavior was moderate. He felt that he should not be treated like an ordinary woman, so he stretched out his sleeves, pointed to a mat in front of him, and said, "Sister, please sit down first."

Li Yao sat down in response and heard the king say slowly: "I am the king of Qi in the Tang Dynasty. However, women do not need to call me king, just call me 'Mr. Li'."

The King of Qi is naturally the brother of Princess Pingyang Zhao, Li Zhaoyue, who has been "hated by his appearance" by his biological mother Dou since the day he was born, and the fourth legitimate son of Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan, King Qi Li Yuanji, nicknamed "San Hu"

.

If Li Yao had not performed self-hypnosis in advance, even if he had not revealed any flaws before, it would have been difficult for him to remain calm when he heard the word "King Qi".

Hearing that the other party had such a powerful background, Li Yao had to pretend not to know the joking meaning in the other party's words, and responded honestly: "Yes, Mr. Li."

Next, the other two strangers introduced themselves.

It turned out that the Taoist priest who picked up the fly whisk again and was born with slender eyebrows and long eyes was originally named "Qihui". He changed his name to "Pingding" because "the true king pacified the four directions", and was granted the title of Dr. Zijin Guanglu by Emperor Li Yuanqin of the Tang Dynasty.

Shengguan Jianyuan Qipingding.

The kind-faced old man was the elder brother of the current Taichang Cheng Zhen Liyan, the author of "Mingtang Human Figure" and "Medicine Theory", and the miracle doctor Zhen Quan who had a huge influence on the "King of Medicine" Sun Simiao.

A prince, a miraculous doctor, a famous Taoist priest, all these people gathered together and named Li Yao, a quasi-taoist who had not even received the ultimatum in hand, to meet. They would definitely not be so idle that they would ask her to come over to have fun.

.

Moreover, this "Golden Elixir Pavilion" with traces of fireworks left everywhere does not look like a normal reception place. It is a bit strange to have a conversation in such a place where elixirs are refined.

Therefore, Li Yao couldn't help but suspect that they had something important to ask her to do, and it must be related to alchemy.

Sure enough, just as Li Yao was pondering secretly, he heard the Qi King Li Yuanji say: "I heard that the female Taoist once studied with a hermit in Shu and learned the skill of alchemy. I wonder if you can also refine prescriptions to cure diseases and save people.

?”

Li Yao was a little speechless. This King of Qi came again and asked questions knowingly.

Strictly speaking, the so-called "alchemy" in alchemy still belongs to the prescriptions within the scope of traditional Chinese medicine.

Ge Hong, a Taoist priest of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, once said in "Baopuzi. Jindan Chapter", "All vegetation will burn when burned, but cinnabar is refined into mercury, and the accumulated change returns to cinnabar. It is also far away from the vegetation, so it can make

People live forever”.

This is actually a misunderstanding of the chemical reduction and oxidation reactions of "cinnabar" mercury sulfide by ancient alchemists.

They very absurdly regard cinnabar as the best material for refining the elixir of life, the "Nine Transformations Golden Elixir", and based on their subjective assumptions, they distinguish all "elixirs" based on cinnabar from other traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions used to treat illnesses and save lives.

The quality limit has been cleared.

However, almost all ancient alchemists used a large number of medicinal materials such as plants, trees, insects and animals. It can be said that all of them were proficient in traditional Chinese medicine.

Vice versa, many famous doctors in ancient times were often alchemists, even the well-known "King of Medicine" Sun Simiao was no exception.

Although Sun Simiao was the most famous miracle doctor in the Tang Dynasty, he also highly advocated the art of alchemy. By summarizing all the alchemy prescriptions and methods of his predecessors, he created the famous "Fire Subduing Method" and even improved the so-called "black gunpowder" several times.

, and wrote its detailed formula in the article "Elixir Classic. Internal Sulfur Method".

Therefore, for a person who can refine high-grade elixirs, it is natural to refine medical prescriptions. What is this if he doesn't ask knowingly?
