No one present wanted to refuse Lu Yan's personal invitation. He was almost the number one person under the King of Qin in the Qin State. It was a dream to get to know such a noble person.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as Pingqiu. But after a brief observation, he found that the others readily agreed, and he couldn't stand out too much, so he agreed.
In this way, Lu Yan returned to the Imperial Prefecture with a group of doctors.
…
"Master Imperial Master, what is the situation of King Qin?"
"You really don't want me to wait for treatment, or you have some hidden agenda."
A banquet was held in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, and Lu Yan advised the anxious people: "Gentlemen, please be patient. Lu Yan just came out of the palace and does know some inside information. But before we talk in detail, please let me
Let me introduce you to you."
The person he introduced was naturally Nianduan.
When the plainly dressed Nianduan walked out from the back of the hall, a voice suddenly came from the banquet, "Are you Nianduan?"
The person who spoke was the old man mentioned above. He stood up, frowned and looked at me twice, "It's really you. At that time, I still lamented that the medical immortals had escaped from the world, and the medical profession was missing a pillar. Unexpectedly, after more than ten years,
We’ll meet here later.”
When Nian Duan was mentioned like this, he quickly remembered the person in front of him and said in surprise: "You are Mr. Medicine King Gongsun."
"Nian Duan? Master Nianduan!"
"Mr. Gongsun, which Mr. Gongsun?"
"Who else can be the King of Medicine? Mr. Gongsun Guang."
The other doctors were so shocked that they whispered among themselves. Who would have thought that from such a casual banquet, two top figures in the world of medicine would be revealed.
"The Gongsun family, the grandsons of the princes in the Spring and Autumn Period, were also called the Gongsun family, and they were all called the nobility. Or they were named Gongsun after the Yellow Emperor, so they were called the Gongsun family."
In this era, those who are qualified to have the surname Gongsun must be quite a noble person if they are counted among their ancestors.
Gongsun Guang was no exception. Thanks to his family's rich collection of books, Gongsun Guang read through the classics very early and was still interested in medical books. His family also happened to possess the medical skills of Huang Di and Bian Que.
After summarizing and sorting it out, and combining it with his half-life practice of treating illnesses and saving lives, he wrote "Huang Di Bian Que Pulse Book", completely establishing his reputation as a master of medicine.
Known as the "King of Medicine", that's what people see. Gongsun Guang's medicine can almost predict life and death. As long as he prescribes a medicine, it means salvation. And the root of all this lies in his research on "pulses"
Above. Only skilled doctors know this.
Doctors who have reached a certain level of real medical skills will yearn for Gongsun Guang's "Huang Di Bian Que Pulse Book".
As for why Nianduan, a promising medical immortal, retired, it has something to do with a swordsman named Duanmu. Gongsun Guang knew something about it, and he had lamented the loss of such a medical immortal in the medical field.
In the atmosphere where doctors were whispering, Pingqiu was trying his best to suppress the huge waves in his heart:
The former medical immortal Nian Duan, the first medical person in the world, and the King of Medicine Gongsun Guang. How could it be possible that the illness of King Qin actually attracted these two people. With these two here, I have a chance to get close to Ying Zheng...
Xia Wuji was sitting at the end of the seat. When he learned the identity of the old man, he was so surprised that he couldn't help but say, "I, I actually met the Medicine King?!"
Lu Yan also didn't expect that he would invite a true god among them casually, "It turns out that the master and Master Nianduan know each other, Senior Medicine King, Lu Yan is disrespectful."
"Oh, I don't expect the Imperial Master to be like this." Gongsun Guang returned the greeting to Lu Yan humbly, and then asked, "Master Imperial Master, since you can ask for Nianduan, could the illness of King Qin be caused by Nianduan?"
Take action, so there is no need to summon doctors from all over the world."
Yes, Lu Yan has invited Nianduan out, what else do you want from me(s)?
After Gongsun Guang mentioned this, the doctors present recovered from the shock. Thinking about it, they looked so redundant?
"Well, to be honest sir, Yan Fang just entered the palace to recommend Master Nianduan to the king. Who would have thought that the king would listen to the words of the two alchemists and say that second-rate elixirs are extremely powerful, first-rate elixirs are immune to all diseases, and top elixirs are
Medicine can make you immortal."
"How could it be possible? King Qin wouldn't believe it."
"Can such nonsense be believed?"
"The king gave the two alchemists a seven-day period to refine an elixir that can cure headaches." Lu Yan looked sad, slapped his right hand on the case, and said angrily, "This incident sends a very serious signal.
Danger.
If these two alchemists cure the king's head disease, is it true that he is immune to all diseases? Furthermore, is immortality true? Hateful, hateful!"
It turned out that Lu Yan was afraid that King Qin would be bewitched by the alchemists and have the idea of immortality.
Everyone can understand that once the king of a country starts dreaming of immortality, the next disaster is completely foreseeable.
However, this is your own business, Lu Yan, and it seems to have nothing to do with us at all.
"Lu Yan knows very little about the alchemy skills of the alchemists. If any of you gentlemen can break the tricks of those two alchemists, please let me, the king, accept the treatment of Master Nianduan with peace of mind. Lu Yan will be deeply grateful."
Everyone looked at each other, and they could all see each other's feelings. After all, Lu Yan's gratitude was very precious.
Gongsun Guang stroked his beard and pondered for a while, expressing his embarrassment, "Master Imperial Master, the art of alchemy is not entirely a lie. People who are really skilled can indeed refine elixirs with great efficacy.
I’m just afraid of those two alchemists…”
Lu Yan continued directly, "The foundation is empty, the internal strength is shallow, and the behavior is vulgar. I don't see how he looks like a skilled person."
Someone interjected during the dinner: "Since he is an incompetent person, what are you worried about, Sir?"
"What I need is a sufficiently authoritative judgment to tell the king clearly that alchemy cannot have the effect of being immune to all diseases and immortality, so as to completely eliminate his thoughts."
Lu Yan spoke very seriously. His cold gaze swept across the entire banquet. Most people did not dare to look at him and avoided looking at him.
They know their own affairs well. If Lu Yan can't handle this request with his own ability, don't expect it.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly dropped several times.
"..."
Lu Yan came back to his senses, forced a smile, and apologized to everyone, "Well, if you show concern, you will be confused. I lost my temper for a while. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"We admire you, the Imperial Preceptor, for his dedication to the country and the king."
"Yes, yes, I just hate that I can't do anything to help."
"Alas~"
Pingqiu hid in the crowd, agreeing openly, but secretly calculating in his heart: So it turns out that Ying Zheng, the tyrant, listened to the alchemist's lies and prepared to use elixirs to treat illnesses. Seeing how nervous Lu Yan was, there must be some story behind it.
Go back and ask Brother Han, he may know something.
Nothing nutritious was discussed at this banquet. Most of the doctors left in disinterest. Only Gongsun Guang, Pingqiu, and Xia Wuji remained in Xianyang City.
Gongsun Guang was just reminiscing with Nianduan; Pingqiu had not given up the opportunity to assassinate Ying Zheng; Xia Wuche, on the other hand, had no money.
