"Wu Shi San" is a traditional Chinese medicine powder invented by Zhang Zhongjing, a famous doctor in the Eastern Han Dynasty, who was revered as the Medical Sage by later generations. The main ingredients are stalactite, sulfur, white quartz, amethyst quartz, and red stone resin, hence the name "Wu Shi San".
The medicinal property is hot and dry, and it is used to treat typhoid fever. However, I don’t know who first discovered another effect of "Wushi Powder" - "Taking Wushi Powder not only cures diseases, but also makes you feel bright and cheerful." There is also a famous handsome man.
, advocated by the master of metaphysics He Yan, taking "Wu Shi San" became a popular fashion among the elites in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. It is said that after eating, the body will become hot and cold, and there will be a short and wonderful pain, and then the spirit will enter a state of pure selflessness and drifting away.
A state of ecstasy, similar to the otherworldly fantasy state of "Zhuangzi" "Zhuangzi" -
"It's wonderful, it's wonderful!"
After Ding Chunqiu returned to Taolin Xiaozhu, he still talked about He Zhu's elegant and unrestrained Xingsan. He also asked Chen Caozhi if Liu Shangzhi wanted to try taking Xingsan together?
Liu Shangzhi said: "Wu Shi Powder is very expensive. One dose is said to cost five thousand yuan——"
"This is not something expensive or expensive." Chen Caozhi interrupted: "Taking powder is equivalent to taking poison. Mr. Zhikawa's "Tamahan Prescription" mentioned the harm of taking powder. Improper dispersion can lead to carbuncles.
There are countless people who died from ulceration. Huangfu Mi, a famous scholar in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, was a brilliant doctor himself. He wrote "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Classics A and B" and was admired by Mr. Zakikawa. However, this Huangfu Mi died because of taking Wushi San.
His body was swollen, his limbs were sore, and he screamed loudly in pain, looking for life and death. In order to relieve the heat in his body, he lay naked on the ice in the middle of winter, and later suffered from severe wind paralysis-"
Ding Chunqiu argued: "The great Sima Huanwen, the governor of Yuzhou Xie Wan, the right general Wang Xizhi, and many famous scholars and sages have all surrendered and no harm has been seen."
Chen Caozhi shook his head and was speechless. Huan Wen and Wang Xizhi left aside. That Xie Wan was Xie An's younger brother. The most important reason why Xie An came out to join politics was because Xie Wan died of a sudden illness. For the benefit of the family, Xie An could not continue to live in seclusion.
Kuaiji Dongshan is traveling with prostitutes. If the Xie family in Chen County does not have outstanding figures in the court, their reputation and status will decline. Xie An must come out. Xie An who makes a comeback seems to be in his early forties, which means Xie Wan is forty years old.
Many famous people in the Wei and Jin Dynasties died young. I am afraid it has something to do with taking "Five Stone Powder"?
But Xie An hasn't left the mountain yet, and Xie Wan hasn't died yet. Chen Caozhi can't say anything to Ding Chunqiu. He said calmly: "Taking Wushi Powder is very particular. You can ask He Zhu for advice on how to take it."
Ding Chunqiu blushed, He Zhu's eyes were raised to the top of his head, and he ignored him, saying: "Forget it, not to mention that these five stones are scattered, He Zhu, like Chu Wenbin, has a thick layer of pink on his face, which is even more rosy than before.
I can’t stand the fact that a woman is so fragrant.”
Liu Shangzhi said: "Didn't Lai De say that he saw someone walking around in a women's skirt on the wooden building over Xiaojing Lake? It should be this He Zhu, a very ridiculous guy, and he thinks he is a handsome man.
Well, to learn from He Yan, you must be as talented as He Yan. You can only learn from He Yan and pretend to be a woman!"
After Chen Caozhi and Liu Shangzhi said this, Ding Chunqiu temporarily gave up the idea of imitating He Zhufu's "Five Stone Powder" and went to study separately without mentioning rest.
Early the next morning, Chen Caozhi took Lai De and Ran Sheng to Xu's Thatched Cottage, ran around Xiaojing Lake, and then climbed to the top of Lion Mountain. Liu Shangzhi and Ding Chunqiu also went up to the mountain to listen to Chen Cao's story.
It blows away.
Today is February 15th, which is the official holiday of Wu County. Chen Caozhi does not have to wait until the afternoon. At the beginning of the day, he goes to the prefect's mansion to meet Lu Na, congratulate him on the new year, and return Zhang Zhi's "Bi Xin Lun" he borrowed last year. .
Lu Na was very happy to see the handsome and cheerful Chen Caozhi. Before discussing calligraphy with anyone during the New Year, he wanted to test whether Chen Caozhi had made any progress in calligraphy in the past two months, so he ordered Chen Caozhi to use Zhang Zhi. "One Stroke" wrote a poem "A Poem for Gu Yanxian's Wife" written by his late uncle Lu Ji. The poem goes:
Cijia traveled far and wide, a leisurely trip of three thousand miles.
There is a lot of wind and dust in Jingluo, and the plain clothes turn into silk.
Cultivation of one's self, mourning for sorrow, and feeling grateful for the same child.
The longing of thoughts and the confusion of heart can't bear the sluggish joy.
It's hard to overcome happiness when it's heavy, and who can make sense when you're upset.
May I return to Hongyi and fly over Zhejiang——
Chen Caozhi was polishing his ink while appreciating this famous poem at the time, and asked: "Lu Shijun, who is Gu Yanxian?"
Lu Na hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said: "Don't you know, Gu Yanxian is Gu Kaizhi's great uncle, and together with my uncles Shi Heng Gong and Shi Long Gong, they are also known as the Three Heroes of Jiangdong."
Chen Cao said: "Oh, that's it. It seems that the relationship between the Lu and Gu families was also very good at the beginning."
"Yes." Lu Na recalled leisurely: "My uncles Shihenggong, Shilonggong and Gu Yanxian were close friends from the same hometown. After the death of Wu, the three of them were summoned to Luoyang to serve as officials in the early years of Taikang. Those northern gentry Thinking that we Wu people are uncivilized southern barbarians, when my two uncles visited Liu Daozhen, Liu Daozhen actually said that he had heard about long-handled gourds in Soochow for a long time, and asked my two uncles if they could grow them? This is really unreasonable! And that one Lu Zhi, the grandson of Sikong Lu Yu and the son of Wei Weiqing Lu Jue, who relied on his high status in the north, actually asked my uncle Shihenggong in public, "Lu Xun, who is Lu Kang?" This is really too much to deceive people. My ancestor's reputation is spread throughout the country. Don't you know? How could my uncle be willing to show weakness? He immediately said tit for tat, "Just like Qing and Lu Yu, Lu Jue'er"——"
Chen Caozhi thought: "The conflict between the northern and southern gentry has been around for a long time."
Lu Na became more interested in talking and said: "Then Gu Yanxian must have felt the same helplessness as my two uncles. He was lonely and frustrated, and his official career was dangerous. He also had the same longing for his homeland, so the three of them often got together to drink and compose poems. Our friendship was very deep. Gu Yanxian got married just before he left for Luoyang. He missed his bride in Jingluo and often wrote poems and sent them back. My two uncles both ghost-wrote Gu Yanxian's lovesickness poems, which was very interesting." After that, he let out a long sigh.
Chen Caozhi listened with a smile, imagining the close friendship between Lu and Gu. Unfortunately, now the descendants of the Lu and Gu families have almost become feuds.
Chen Caozhi concentrated his attention, and his writing strokes were like dragons and snakes, and the whole poem was composed of six characters in one go. The handwriting was occasionally broken, but the meaning of the writing was connected——
Lu Na praised: "The copying skills and comprehension ability are very strong. In just two months, it is really rare to be able to write such a situation in one stroke."
Chen Caozhi thanked Lu Shijun for the compliment and said: "Cao Zhi has one more request. I have heard for a long time that Shi Junzun's uncle Lu Pingyuan's "Pingfu Tie" is exquisite. Cao Zhi has seen countless copies but has never seen the original work. I dare to invite him. Please give me your permission."
Lu Na said: "The "Ping Fu Tie" is not with me. It is collected by my brother. I wonder if it is at Lu Qin's place. Lu Qin is still in Jiankang. I will ask him when he comes back."
Chen Caozhi lingered in Lu Na's study for a long time, but Lu Weirui didn't come out, so he calmly asked: "Your Majesty, how is your health lately after Miss Weirui caught the cold last year?"
Lu Na said: "Rui'er's physique is very good. Four days ago, I went to Huating Manor to enjoy the plum blossoms and orchids. Only my son Changsheng's health is really worrying - by the way, since you are good at medicine, why not also diagnose and treat Changsheng?"
Chen Caozhi was a little confused and asked: "Who has diagnosed and treated Mr. Changsheng before?"
Luna said: "That's Mr. Zakikawa."
"Ah!" Chen Caozhi quickly thanked him, saying that he was just a beginner and did not dare to use medicine indiscriminately. He thought to himself: "Master Ge can't cure the disease, how can I dare to cure it? If I accidentally cure it and die, it will be tragic.
"
Lu Na just asked casually without any hope, and sighed: "It's all caused by taking Hanshi Powder. I've visited famous doctors but can't cure it."
Chen Caozhi thought to himself: "Another victim of Wu Shi San." When he left the prefect's mansion, he thought about not seeing Lu Weirui, and felt melancholy. When he passed Zhenqing Taoist Temple, he went to the back mountain to see the camellias.
Suddenly an idea flashed in my mind:
"Lu Weirui knew that I was coming to Wu County in early February, and also knew that I passed through Huating when I came here last year. So, did she go to Huating four days ago to wait for me?"
