Chapter 1040: Open the furnace and make alchemy (2)
"Brother Dongyuan, what about... these medicinal materials? I picked them all according to the method you taught..."
Seeing Qin Dongyuan taking out the herbs he picked one by one, Qin Feng looked a little nervous. According to Qin Dongyuan, the medicinal properties of ginseng can be made up for by other herbs, but if the quality of all the herbs is not enough
If so, then Qin Dongyuan is also a clever woman who cannot make a meal without straw.
"That's right. Where did you find these medicinal materials?"
Qin Dongyuan nodded, pointed to the rhizome of the Ganoderma lucidum and said: "The age of this Ganoderma lucidum is probably more than 13,000 years old. It is extremely rare even in our place. I never thought you would come across it..."
In the space where Qin Dongyuan lives, the animals in the mountains are very spiritual and know that herbal medicines are good things. Therefore, in addition to medicinal materials that grow in some special environments, rare medicines that are over a thousand years old are also very rare. Qin Feng took it out all at once.
Even Qin Dongyuan was shocked because of the medicinal herbs that were thousands of years old.
"Then it's ready for use?" Qin Feng's face showed joy. Although his cultivation level was slightly higher than Qin Dongyuan's, when it came to making alchemy and medicine, it was far inferior to Qin Dongyuan's.
"Well, you took good care of it. Let's start the alchemy..." Qin Dongyuan said: "The fresh medicinal materials picked cannot be stored for a long time. They must be refined as early as possible. It is best not to be disturbed during the alchemy. You should not be disturbed by outsiders.
Just give me a warning..."
"Okay, Brother Dongyuan, I will protect you and ensure that no one will interfere with you..."
Qin Feng nodded heavily, took out his cell phone and called Meng Lin. As soon as he got through, he said straight to the point: "Brother Lin, I'm going to make the medicine now. Tell the people over there not to come to your door within five days."
.Otherwise, don’t blame me for being unkind..."
For Qin Feng, refining the elixir for Meng Yao is the top priority now. Everything else can be put aside. If the people in the supernatural team want to see him, they have to wait until Qin Feng refines the elixir.
Already.
"Start making medicine now, don't you need to make some preparations?"
Meng Lin, who had just driven away from the manor, suddenly stepped on the brakes. As soon as the steering wheel turned, he drove in the direction he came from and said murderously: "Qin Feng, I'll be back soon. Don't worry, before you refine the medicine,
I promise that no one will show up in the manor..."
For this refining of medicine, Meng Lin paid no less attention than Qin Feng. After turning the car around, Meng Lin made a call. The first call was made to a buddy in the Beijing Garrison District, asking him to dispatch a company.
The manpower was deployed outside the manor.
Immediately afterwards, Meng Lin called the person who contacted him in the supernatural team and told him that Qin Feng had not been able to see them in the past few days. Before the person could raise any objection, Meng Lin hung up the phone. He could now
I'm not in the mood to argue with that person.
"Qin Feng, do you need any help?"
After returning to the manor almost at the speed of a racing car, Meng Lin rushed into the room and said, "Give me a few hours, and I can mobilize the most famous pharmacy experts in the capital to help. There are also the top cardiac surgery experts in the country.
He happens to be in the capital as well..."
In addition to asking Qin Feng and Qin Dongyuan to diagnose Meng Yao, Meng Lin also found some other well-known experts in the country. Now Meng Yao will go to the hospital for follow-up visits every other week to let those experts know about her at any time.
's condition.
"What's the use of looking for them? Do you have the ability to let them cure that girl's disease?"
Hearing Meng Lin's words, Qin Dongyuan said unceremoniously: "Boy, I only agreed to refine the elixir for Qin Feng's sake. You'd better knock on the door and come in next time, otherwise it will delay my refining the elixir.
It was you who harmed your sister..."
"I'm sorry. Mr. Qin, I'm really sorry." Qin Dongyuan's words made Meng Lin realize that he was Meng Lang, and he quickly said: "I was too impatient. Mr. Qin, I promise that no one will break in again without your instructions."
of……"
"Okay, let's go out..." Qin Dongyuan waved his hand angrily and said, "As long as Qin Feng helps here, it's best for irrelevant people not to approach my residence..."
"Yes, Mr. Qin, don't worry..." When Meng Lin was about to go out, his eyes suddenly glanced at the alchemy furnace in the room. He couldn't help but be startled. He turned to Qin Feng and said, "Qin Feng,
You...do you really want to make elixirs?"
When Meng Lin heard Qin Feng mention the term alchemy before, he only thought it was a Taoist term for medicine. But when he saw this alchemy furnace, Meng Lin was a little confused. Are they really planning to make alchemy like in Taoist legends?
Making elixirs?
You must know that the ancients made elixirs to seek immortality. This has been recorded since the time of Qin Shihuang. According to legend, after Qin Shihuang unified the world, he searched for alchemists and Taoists and asked them to refine the elixir of immortality for him. The most famous "burning" incident in history
The incident of "Books and Confucianism" is actually related to alchemy.
At that time, there was an alchemist named Lu Sheng who was extremely trusted by Qin Shihuang. He told the emperor that if the emperor lived in a room that no one knew about and did not let anyone know, he could get the elixir of immortality.
Qin Shihuang believed this nonsense and ordered the construction of 260 palaces within 100 miles of Xianyang, the capital. They were all connected by corridors and surrounded by curtains. Bells, drums and beauty lanterns were placed inside. The emperor visited the palace every day, and his followers were not allowed to reveal the emperor's secrets.
Anyone who dares to reveal secrets will be put to death immediately.
One day, Qin Shihuang visited Liangshan Palace and saw Prime Minister Li Si traveling down the mountain with many horses and horses, and he was very dissatisfied.
Someone among the entourage secretly told Li Si about this. Later, when Li Si went out, he deliberately reduced his carriage. Qin Shihuang knew that someone had leaked what he said, and was very angry. He immediately issued an edict to arrest the entourage who was around that day, because he could not check
When they found out who had leaked the information, they killed all the servants. From then on, none of the ministers knew the emperor's daily whereabouts. Although the alchemist Lu Sheng deceived the emperor for a while, he still felt uneasy in his heart.
Because he knew that according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, if the alchemist's alchemy was not effective twice, he would be beheaded. He discussed with Hou Sheng privately that he could no longer ask for elixirs for him, so he escaped secretly.
When Qin Shihuang heard about it, he was furious. He hated the alchemist for wasting money and not getting the elixir, but he dared to slander himself.
Qin Shihuang couldn't catch Lu Sheng, so he vented his anger on the Confucian scholars in Beijing. He believed that they were also guilty of "causing evil talk to cause chaos in the head of Guizhou." He ordered the censor to torture the Confucian scholars. The Confucian scholars reported on each other, implicating more than 460 people in the ban, and this happened in history.
The famous "burning books and harassing Confucians" incident.
In addition to Qin Shihuang, Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty was also a mediocre emperor who believed in alchemy. At that time, various secret recipes and elixirs were offered from various places, among which "red lead" was the most popular method of alchemy: virgin
The menstrual powder and medicinal powder are mixed and roasted to resemble cinnabar.
It is said that these drugs can strengthen the body and strengthen the body. In order to collect enough raw materials for alchemy, Emperor Jiajing forced the maids to take drugs that induce menstruation and induce bleeding. In some cases, they would damage the maids' bodies, and in worst cases, they would cause excessive blood loss or even hemorrhage.
, many people died as a result.
As a result of taking elixirs for many years, Emperor Jiajing had a very irritable temperament. He often whipped the palace ladies who made mistakes, which made many palace ladies hold grudges. Once when he fell asleep at night, he was almost strangled to death by several palace ladies with a rope noose.
What a strange news.
In addition, there are also rumors that Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty died suddenly after taking pills containing black lead, because according to the Qing palace archives, Yongzheng did take pills for a long time, and the poisonous ingredients in the pills were
It is extremely possible that the long-term accumulation in his body led to his sudden death. Many experts have made detailed inferences on this through their works.
It was precisely because of his understanding of this history that Meng Lin was shocked by Qin Feng and Qin Dongyuan's alchemy practices. He did not expect that in a modern society with advanced medicine, the two of them would actually use an alchemy furnace to refine elixirs?
"Brother Lin, you misunderstood. Our elixir refining is different from those in history..."
Seeing Meng Lin's puzzled look, Qin Feng said: "The main purpose of alchemy is to cultivate elixirs for immortality, and to convert base metals into precious metals such as gold and silver. They mainly use hardware and eight stones for alchemy.
, Sanhuang is used as the raw material, and most of the preparations made are arsenic, mercury and lead. However, real alchemy uses medicinal materials as the main ingredients, and there is no arsenic, mercury, lead and other ingredients in it, so you can rest assured...
"
Qin Feng is familiar with Taoist classics and is naturally much clearer about alchemy than Meng Lin. The original intention of those who pursue immortality is absurd. They hope to use the essence of gold and stone to make people immortal and become immortals, but things go against their wishes, causing
A series of historical farces.
But in the space where Qin Dongyuan lived, alchemy was an important part of medicine and could assist warriors in their practice. All the herbs used were extremely rare, so naturally there would be no such thing as elixir poisoning.
"You kid, please don't deceive me." It was about the safety of his sister. Meng Lin still didn't dare to believe Qin Feng's words. He immediately said: "After your elixir is refined, I will first find someone to analyze the ingredients.
Only then can Yaoyao take it..."
"Okay, I'll do as you say..." Qin Feng nodded and agreed. He was also afraid that some chemical reactions would occur after the various herbs were combined. Meng Lin's proposal was exactly what he had in mind.
"That's it, I'll ask the pharmacy expert to prepare the laboratory, and send your elixirs there for testing as soon as they come out..." After hearing Qin Feng's words, Meng Lin felt relieved. He didn't dare to let his sister take any elixirs casually.
"You kid, you can't trust me, right?"
After Meng Lin went out, Qin Dongyuan glanced at Qin Feng with some dissatisfaction. Refining a batch of elixirs was also an extremely energy-consuming task for him. Unexpectedly, the person involved was skeptical, which naturally made Qin Dongyuan feel unhappy.
Already.
"Brother Dongyuan, just in case, you prepare the herbs first, and I'll go outside and bring the gas in..."
Qin Feng did not dare to offend Qin Dongyuan at this moment. He immediately ran to the yard, carried the bottles of gas and the special stove into the house, and started the preparations for the alchemy. (To be continued, please search Gone with the Wind.
