Chapter 207 Poison
The two of them waited outside for about a cup of tea, and Master Zhou came out of the house again.
This time, he had two more jade bottles in his hand. He walked to Wei Renshi and Liu Yuxi and smiled and said, "I will start the furnace to refine the alchemy. This time, dozens of heavenly and earth treasures, including cinnabar, Guangming Pill, thousand-year-old ginseng and hundreds of precious medicinal materials were carefully refined after 9981 days. However, Mr. Wei was here today and happened to be released, so he gave some to the young master. This pill is Shengji Pill. If you are sick, you can eliminate the disease and return to health. If you are not sick, you can strengthen the foundation and cultivate the essence and prolong your life."
As he said that, Master Zhou handed over two small jade bottles and gave Wei Renshi and Liu Yuxi one.
Wei Renshi was shocked. This was a fresh heavy metal poison pill that had just been released!
"Thank you, Master Zhou." Wei Renshi took the little jade bottle over.
"I have seen it just now. There are naturally many good people who are suitable for moving to a new house this year, but there are only two of them that can be called great people." Master Zhou said to Wei Renshi: "The most recent one is twenty days later. The one who is best for Mr. Wei to move to a house. If you miss it, the other one will be October. However, if Mr. Wei doesn't care, just respond, then there will be little good people in three days, five days, and ten days later, all of them can be."
After hearing this, Liu Yuxi said, "Don't look at Dao Ren Zhou's appearance, he is a good person but the famous person in Chang'an City. How can Wei Langjun decide?"
"Then it will be great in twenty days! Thank you Master Zhou! I wonder what Master Zhou needs?" Wei Renshi settled. There were many things to prepare before the official move, and twenty days were more sufficient.
Master Zhou smiled and shook his head, saying, "Mr. Wei can add countless fertile land to the people. With this merit, I can help Mr. Wei and be more intoxicated. How dare I ask Mr. Wei for his reward!"
The three of them chatted again, and Liu Yuxi and Wei Renshi left Xuandu Temple together.
"Mr. Liu, give me the elixir that Master Luo had just given you." Wei Renshi said to Liu Yuxi.
Liu Yuxi was stunned, took out the little jade bottle and smiled and said, "I heard from you just now that you don't like these elixirs, why do you ask me if you want to prescribe it?"
"I'm afraid that when you go back, you will swallow the elixir in one bite. Or you may go back and offer it to your attendant, and then be presented to His Highness the Crown Prince." Wei Renshi said quietly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is not good at all. If you take these elixirs, it will be a little worse."
"We are afraid that Master Luo has a high status in Xuandu Temple, and he often walks around the palace. The pills he made himself are very difficult to find in Chang'an City. I was lucky enough to be able to strengthen Master Luo by chance." Liu Yuxi asked in surprise: "Wei Langjun thinks that there is really something wrong with this pill?"
"It's not just a problem." Wei Renshi sighed: "It's just a problem! This is clearly a poison!"
"Shh!" Liu Yuxi quickly looked around and said, "I just came out of Xuandu Temple here. Don't talk nonsense. I've been heard by others. Taoist priests in Chang'an City are going to find trouble for you."
"Follow me." Wei Renshi said to Liu Yuxi.
"Where do you go?" Liu Yuxi asked.
Wei Renshi looked at him and replied, "Go to my house and I will demonstrate with you."
After saying that, Liu Yuxi was asked to get on the carriage and Ling Gou Er drove the two home.
When he got home, Wei Renshi went straight to the backyard and frowned and said to Gou Er, "Brother Gou Er, please let others unload your horse. Go to the cook to catch a chicken, you want to live."
Gou Er nodded and headed towards the chef.
Wei Renshi said to Liu Yuxi again: "I'll let you see with your own eyes what this thing is."
Gou Er quickly brought a living chicken from the cook. Wei Renshi took out the small jade bottle that Master Zhou gave him, opened it, and poured out a few heavy pills with metallic luster from it.
Wei Renshi leaned him up to his nose and sniffed it. A strange fragrance revealed a metallic smell.
"Brother Gou, break this and feed that chicken." Wei Renshi handed the heavy pill with a metallic luster to Gou Er.
"Langjun, you really..." Gou Er looked at what Wei Renshi had in his hand: "This is a fairy pill that many people can't ask for..."
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and do as you want, just wait and you will know." Wei Renshi urged.
Dog Er had to do as he did, crushed the "unique pills" and then fed them to force him to the chicken beak.
Liu Yuxi looked at Wei Renshi's actions with great interest, and did not speak aside. He just observed the chicken carefully.
The chicken was very lively at first, and the yard was running around, extremely excited, as if he thought he was a bird, flapping his wings and looking like he wanted to fly, as if he was crazy.
Liu Yuxi seemed to be thinking.
Gou Er looked regretful next to him, thinking that his little son was still too young and had no idea about ammunition, so he actually used the elixir that others could not find for chickens.
But gradually, the chicken stopped fluttering, and lying on the ground, "cuckoo" sounded, and finally started to whine at the top of his throat, with extremely shrill sounds.
Liu Yuxi's expression became solemn, and Gou Er also changed his face.
The three of them watched helplessly as the chicken began to twitch and foam at the mouth. Finally, the feces and urine flowed, blood came out of their beaks, and blood came out of their eyes. They were in great pain. Finally, they kicked their legs and stopped moving.
"Die...Die!" Gou Erjing's face changed drastically: "Xiao, Xiaolang...that medicine can make a fuss!"
Wei Renshi nodded and said to Liu Yuxi: "Mr. Liu, have you seen it? This is the so-called elixir. Ordinary alchemy contains mercury, red lead, etc., which are all highly toxic things. It's ridiculous that those Taoists even regard those things as treasures to strengthen their bodies. But people are more spiritual than chickens and have stronger bodies. They usually swallow less at a time, so they won't die in one go. But those toxicities accumulate in the body. As time goes by, the more they eat, the greater the impact of toxicity. In the end, the person's temperament changes drastically, and he will die of poisoning!"
Liu Yuxi looked solemn and immediately said with a dark face: "These pills are poisons! It is important to know that Your Majesty and His Royal Highness, many ministers in the court will swallow pills from time to time in order to strengthen their bodies, but the clinker is taking poisons themselves! This matter must be reported to Your Majesty!"
Wei Renshi looked at him and said, "You just submitted a memorial like this. Do you think Your Majesty will believe it? You might as well tell the King of the Kings and then tell the Prince. Your Majesty will not believe it immediately, but he trusts the Kings and therefore he will inevitably seek verification first. When he sees the clear evidence, he will naturally advise Your Majesty to prove it to Your Majesty. As for Your Majesty, whether you believe it or not, at least Your Majesty will know it, and in the future..."
