Donkey Trouble Volume 4: The Prodigal Son of the Capital 56, God Sleep Show

Having milk is not necessarily a mother, but being rich must be a master!

Alchemy is a technique used to refine elixir in ancient times. Since Zhou Qin, China has initiated and applied this pharmaceutical method of warming and sublimating drugs, which is the earliest in the world. In the ninth and tenth centuries, Chinese alchemy was introduced to Arabia and to Europe in the twelfth century.

There are two kinds of drugs made by alchemy, external and internal, and those who use it externally are still very valuable, while those who take it internally are gradually eliminated due to their greater toxicity. The so-called "miracle elixir", people will live longer and prolong their lives if they eat it, and even live forever, and become immortal, which is completely ridiculous.

In the Sui Dynasty, alchemy was divided into two types: outer dan (taking medicine) and inner dan (practicing gong). Although it was a complete failure in its original purpose, the practice of alchemy enabled people to come into contact with various natural phenomena, thus improving their understanding of the natural world, gaining a lot of valuable empirical knowledge, and laying the foundation for later generations of chemical research. For example, the gunpowder that appeared at the end of the Tang Dynasty was a product of the practice of alchemy.

Due to the development and prosperity of alchemy in the Tang and Song dynasties, many emperors believed that some masters of flickering were invited to the palace to treat them like guests, and Chen Jian of course also wanted to keep the flame of the alchemy furnace alive and advertise himself as a master of alchemy.

Chen Jian was wearing a broken robe, and he was busy in front of the alchemy furnace with a black and gray face, and when he heard the Xiaodao boy's report, he lay down in the firewood and grass pile and pretended to fall asleep.

Zhao Hongyin led people to the door of the Taoist temple, saluted the little Taoist boy, and explained the reason. Xiaodaotong was routine, on the grounds that "the master has been sleeping for more than three months, and he still doesn't know where to sleep", he took it for a long time, Zhao Hongyin gave him a tip of two taels of silver, and he took Zhao Hongyin to find Chen Jun.

Zhao Hongyin followed the little Taoist boy around for a long time, but he didn't see where Chen Tong was, he was anxious, and couldn't help asking, "Where does the Taoist master sleep?"

Xiao Daotong said: "My master has nothing else to do, but snores and sleeps." and slept without a fixed place, sometimes on the stone slabs of the ravines, sometimes in the woods and meadows. Once, when the master went down the mountain, I don't know how much time passed, I only remember that the firewood and grass in the firewood room were burned by my cooking, and after many days of fighting, the house was piled up again, and he still did not come back. He didn't return for half a year, and I thought he had gone somewhere else! Later, when I was about to burn out a room full of firewood and grass, I suddenly found a corpse under the firewood and grass, and I was startled. stepped forward to take a closer look, and found that it was the master. He didn't know when he had come back and slept there! You think, the firewood room was full of firewood and grass, and it wasn't until it was burned that you didn't see how long he had been sleeping, and oh, I couldn't tell how long he had been sleeping!

"Another time, the master didn't come back for many days, and I was very anxious. When I went to collect firewood that day, I suddenly saw a corpse in the hollow of the mountain, and the dust on it was more than an inch thick. I had pity in my heart and wanted to bury him. I didn't know, I stepped forward to brush off the dust and looked, but it was the master. I cried and cried, 'Master, master, you said you went down the mountain to do business, how could you die here!' I was crying, but I saw the master stretch his waist, open his eyes, and say, 'I am sleeping happily, who woke me up?'"

Xiaodao Tong pretended to be looking for a master while doing a "god sleep show" for the master, Zhao Hongyin begged for sincerity, of course he believed it, and only praised Chen Shu repeatedly: "God man, really god man!"

Xiao Daotong finished reading the lines he had memorized in advance, and then he came to the firewood and grass pile in the alchemy room, pretending to suddenly find and found Chen Kuan, who was pretending to be asleep.

"Master, master, wake up, someone is looking for you!" shouted the little Taoist boy.

Chen Tuo turned over, stretched his waist, pretended to be alternative first, and pretended to be crazy and stupid and sang:

"I love to sleep, I love to sleep,

No room, no bed,

Pave the stone slab, and the sky should be covered.

Sleep in the dark,

Regardless of the rising and falling of the red sun. ”

After singing, it was like falling asleep again.

"Master, master, wake up, someone is looking for you!" Xiao Daotong stepped forward and pushed Chen Tuo twice, shouting even louder.

Chen Tuan turned over, still humming like a dream:

"To the human nature without dreams, their dreams are immortal.

Real people don't sleep, and when they sleep, they are in smoke.

The furnace is close to the joy, and there is no heaven in the pot.

If you want to know in your sleep, the first mystery in the world. ”

Xiaodao Tong stepped forward and shouted loudly again, he got up and yawned and rubbed his eyes and said to Xiaodao Tong: "I just slept for a while, what called me up?"

"Master, you've been sleeping for more than three months, don't you see that it's autumn!" Xiao Daotong is well-trained, and of course there are no flaws in his answers.

How could Zhao Hongyin think that the master and apprentice were putting on a show, just that Chen Jian really slept for a hundred days, and was a half-immortal body, of course, he worshipped infinitely, waved his hand and ordered his entourage to kneel down with him, and said while kowtowing: "The forbidden army in front of the palace is commanding Zhao Hongyin, and bring his family to meet the Taoist!"

Chen Tuan was startled when he heard that Zhao Hongyin's official position was so big, and hurriedly got up and helped him up: "People in the poor mountains and wilderness have been sleeping in a daze all year round, how can they be virtuous, how can they be so gifted by nobles! General Zhao, please get up, please get up!"

Zhao Hongyin stood up, turned around and took the tray with two hundred taels of silver in the butler's hand, and handed it to Chen Shu: "A few ingots of sesame oil money, it is not a respect! Please be merciful and merciful, save my son!"

"I'm clumsy by nature and I like to sleep, and I don't get tired outside of my breath.

The universe is always empty, and life is almost like being drunk!

Gold and silver treasures are a drag, what is the taste of fine food and wine?

I am really happy in my sleep, and I spend my years in a daze. ”

Chen Jian was still pretending to be high, and Xiao Daotong had already run over and took the silver.

Zhao Hongyin took Zhao Kuangyin from the girl's hand, held it in front of Chen Tuan, and asked Chen Tuan to diagnose.

Chen Jian squinted and lifted the brocade quilt, and couldn't tell what the disease was, seeing that Zhao Kuangyin was covered with yellow skin like fish scales, he just patted his mouth and coaxed Zhao Hongyin to be happy: "Congratulations, congratulations, this is the reincarnation of the Yellow Dragon, great fortune, and the future is unlimited!"

"But he cried all night, as if he was very uncomfortable!" "After all, he is a father, and he can feel the pain of the child."

He first arrived in the world, the environment is different, and he is a little uncomfortable, so I will be equipped with some Yin and Yang Nine Turns Rebirth Cream, just go back and apply it!"

Zhao Hongyin and his entourage stayed at the foot of the mountain for one night, and the next day they went up the mountain, Chen Jun had prepared the ointment, and prepared a package of herbs, and explained to Zhao Hongyin: "This ointment comes from the master Sun Junfang, the deer skin priest has developed a secret recipe for many years, and I added a few pills of the pill I practiced, which needs to be applied three times a day." Boil the herbs in water and soak your child in the bath before applying the medicine. I have injected half Jiazi true qi into the medicine, you just have to rest assured, as long as you follow what I said, the child will be cured soon!"

Cure me as an immortal, and if you can't cure me, you don't completely "do what I say"; and "soon" is a time that is difficult to determine, that is, it will not heal for a long time, Chen Shu can also say that this is a chronic disease, and it takes time to recuperate; it will never heal, but it is also a difficulty in your life, anyway, the "immortals" are right, and there are always excuses.

Zhao Hongyin didn't understand these words, I heard that there was an elixir in the ointment, and the herbs were injected with true qi, which could ensure that the child was healed, and he was overjoyed, and said goodbye to Chen Kuangyin, and when he went home, he washed Yue Kuangyin three times a day with herbal water, and after washing, he used the ointment to apply Zhao Kuangyin's whole body.

Zhao Hongyin was busy with court affairs, Du's body was weak, and as a master, he was not used to working by himself, so letting his subordinates rest, bathing and applying medicine, of course, was the work of the maids.
