Chapter 4 Eight Poisonous Red Pills

Chishui Town is not big, the entire territory is estimated to be only about three square kilometers, and the population is not more than 1,000, such a town may not be found on the map at all, but it is the closest town to the archaeological team - even so, Luo Tian and Fang Ru drove for two hours and walked a full hundred kilometers.

I drove around the town in a jeep until I finally found a small Chinese medicine shop in an inconspicuous alley.

Luo Tian walked in, the small shop only had a small lamp above his head, which seemed a little dim, facing the door was a counter, and behind the counter was a medicine cabinet.

"What are you going to buy?"

Seeing someone coming in, Kong Feng walked over.

"I want one or two realgars, pearls, stones, peony skins, crotons, aconite, quinoa, and a centipede, I don't know if there are any?"

Kong Feng was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, "Yes, wait a minute." ”

When he turned around to get the medicine, Kong Feng glanced at Luo Tian, and the surprise in his heart was even more.

"Stuff good."

Seeing Kong Feng take out the same medicinal materials he wanted, Luo Tian secretly nodded in his heart, now he is not only able to use witchcraft to save people, but he is also a master in the identification of medicinal materials - a lot of knowledge in this area exists in his mind, and it is impossible for him to not understand it.

Everything was ready-made, and it was ready quickly, and Luo Tian and Fang Ru left after paying the money.

Not long after Luo Tian and Fang Ru left, another person came out of the store.

"You've finally made a deal."

Qu Cheng said as he sat up at the Eight Immortals table.

Kong Feng smiled and said, "There is no business in the small place, but it makes you laugh, but today's business is quite interesting." ”

"Oh? Why? ”

Qu Cheng suddenly became curious, his old friend's origin is not simple, his family history, from him to the top three generations are all national-level Chinese medicine practitioners, even he finds it interesting things are rare.

Picking up the teapot and pouring a cup of tea for Qu Cheng, Kong Feng said: "The medicines that the person bought just now can be prepared into a piece of medicine, called 'Eight Poison Red Pills', also known as 'Ghost Slaying Pill', 'Ghost Killing Rod', etc., which are mainly used to treat the accumulation of five corpses, nausea and pain, ghost qi, and ghost disease, among which the nausea and pain are similar to the heart disease mentioned by Western medicine. ”

Qu Cheng said disapprerovingly: "Didn't you keep saying that there are many magical things about Chinese medicine? What's so strange about a cure for heart disease? ”

"This recipe came from Li Ziyu, a native of the Jin Dynasty, according to the record of "Sou Shen Postscript", he 'Shaoshan medical prescription, contemporary called it psychic', when the younger brother of Xu Yong, the assassin of Yuzhou, had pain in his henchmen for more than ten years, the reason was that there was a demon in the stomach, and was later cured by Li Ziyu, and the pill used to treat the disease was the Eight Poison Red Pill."

"This ...... What does it mean? You don't mean to say that the young man just used this medicine to kill ghosts, do you? ”

Qu Cheng was startled, thinking to himself that there are really ghosts in this world?

Shaking his head with a smile, Kong Feng said:

"Li Ziyu is a witch doctor, although his prescription is also used in traditional Chinese medicine now, but it comes from the root of witch medicine."

Qu Cheng understood what Kong Feng meant, his brows furrowed tightly, and he said, "You mean that the young man just now was a witch doctor?" ”

Kong Feng hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, and said: "Heh, maybe I'm too sensitive, due to various reasons, especially in the catastrophe a few decades ago, the witch doctor was attacked as a feudal superstition, and now it is basically extinct, especially those powerful witch doctors, it is estimated that the inheritance has been broken." ”

Kong Feng sighed in his heart, ordinary people often think that those witch doctors are just deceptive things and superstitions, but how many people know that Chinese medicine is actually born from witch doctors, that is to say, witch doctors are the "ancestors" of Chinese medicine, because of the family history, he knows how amazing witch doctors are, and when he was young, he also saw a powerful witch doctor who can cure diseases and save people with only a piece of rune paper!

It's just that now such people have disappeared for decades.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in whether this person is a witch doctor or not, and you know what I'm coming to you for this time, are you going or not? You give me the right word. ”

Qu Cheng put down the teacup in his hand, this time he didn't come thousands of miles away to drink tea and chat.

"I said three years ago that there is no cure for that person's illness, and this kind of thing is beyond my ability."

"But you can at least ease the pain."

Kong Feng was silent, and finally sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go again, who told him to save my grandfather's life?" ”

In the catastrophe a few decades ago, Kong Feng's grandfather was imprisoned in the cowshed, and if it weren't for the help of the person Qu Cheng said, his bones would have been gone.

"Good! That's great! I can't figure out why you'd rather give up your life in the big city and nest in this small place, and a nest is ten years! ”

Qu Cheng was very happy, he didn't expect to convince Kong Feng so easily before he came.

"I'll pack my things and leave tomorrow."

A hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Kong family learned from an old mountain guest that there was a centuries-old mountain ginseng near Chishui Town, Kong Feng stayed in Chishui Town for ten years for this, but unfortunately in the past ten years, Kong Feng searched the surrounding area for hundreds of miles and found nothing, of course, no matter what, this reason can't be said to Qu Cheng - he plans to come back after the matter is over and continue to search.

Luo Tian didn't know that the small pharmacy where he bought medicine was "hidden" a peerless master of Xinglin, and he didn't know that the other party had already guessed what kind of medicine he was going to dispense, and after leaving the pharmacy, he bought another bottle of honey and rushed back to the archaeological team's station with Fang Ru non-stop.

"What are we going to do now?"

"Mix these medicines into pills, come, you grind this realgar and real pearl into powder with a wooden stick, and I'll prepare something else."

Night fell quickly, a fire was burned in front of the tent, and it was warm, and Luo Tian threw a yellow mud ball directly into the fire.

"What's inside?"

Fang Ru was curious to watch Luo Tian fiddle with all this, not long ago Luo Tian put the peeled heart of croton into a small pot to boil, as for aconite, quinoa and centipede were burned with tiles.

"It's a stone, and it's going to be burned in mud for hours."

"Mr. Luo."

"Teacher Jiang, why are you here?"

Fang Ru looked up and found that Jiang Tiesheng didn't know when he had already walked over, followed by Li Zhu.

Jiang Tiesheng sat down on the low stool, waved his hand, and said to Fang Ru, "I'm much better." ”

Jiang Tiesheng looked at Luo Tian, he didn't expect that he would have a heart attack at all, and if it weren't for this young man in front of him, he would definitely not be able to live.

"Mr. Luo, I don't dare to say thank you."

Luo Tian smiled and said, "Heh, Teacher Jiang, it's just that I know a little first aid." ”

Shaking his head, Jiang Tiesheng said: "It's a gesture for you, but for me it's a human life, if there's anything I can help in the future, just say it." ”

"Okay, if there is a need, I will not be polite."

Luo Tian was not hypocritical, otherwise Jiang Tiesheng would feel even more uneasy.

"Teacher Jiang, Luo Tian and I both think that you should go back to the big city as soon as possible, where the medical conditions are better."

Luo Tian nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Hmph, what do you know, what Teacher Jiang needs at this time is to recuperate, it is thousands of miles away from a big city with better conditions, how can you stand such a long journey?"

Li Zhu sneered, he still hadn't figured out how Luo Tian rescued Jiang Tiesheng.

"Then let's go back, half a foot has come back to life after stepping into the ghost gate, what are you afraid of?"

Jiang Tiesheng didn't care too much.

Fang Ru glanced at Li Zhu, his eyes were like knives, as a real doctor, Li Zhu had been helping in this matter!

"Teacher Jiang, Luo Tian has prepared medicine for you, you don't have to worry."

"That's it?"

Li Zhu pointed to the centipede on the tile and continued: "Hmph! This is a highly poisonous thing, so use these things to cure diseases? ”

"Heh, I believe Luo Tian."

Hearing Jiang Tiesheng say this, Li Zhu's face suddenly turned red, this is clearly not believing himself!

"Humph! You can do whatever you want! ”

Li Zhu couldn't sit still any longer, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the tent where he lived.

"The guy with the best eyes and the lowest hand!"

Fang Ru looked at Li Zhu's back and muttered in a low voice.

Jiang Tiesheng smiled and said, "Heh, Xiaoru, it's not surprising, people like Li Zhu have received orthodox medical education, and they can't do anything without medicine and hospital equipment." In addition, it has been smooth sailing and growing up in a honeypot, and the surname is definitely not much better. ”

Jiang Tiesheng is a very talkative person, and the three of them chatted about things around the fire, and before they knew it, it was midnight.

"It's almost time."

Luo Tian picked up the stick and pulled out the mud in the fire, smashed it and took out the stone inside, and then mixed the realgar, pearls, scorched aconite, quinoa, centipede and boiled skinless croton that had long been ground into powder, first carefully stirred evenly, and then added honey to form a paste and then kneaded into a pill the size of a grain of rice.

"Luo Tian, what is this pill called?"

Fang Ru looked at the dozens of pills in front of her, she was quite curious, she had never seen anyone make a medicine.

"This pill is called 'Eight Poison Red Pills', which is used to protect the heart, which is suitable for Teacher Jiang's current situation."

After using witchcraft to save Jiang Tiesheng, Luo Tian believed that the prescription in his brain could also work.

Jiang Tiesheng carefully picked up a pill and put it in his mouth, mixed it with saliva and swallowed it.

"Teacher Jiang, what's wrong?"

Under the firelight, Fang Ru found that Jiang Tiesheng's face suddenly changed, and he screamed in fright.

"Heh, Xiaoru, don't make a fuss, the effect of this medicine is too obvious!"

Jiang Tiesheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw Fang Ru like this. He was indeed frightened by the effect of the medicine, although he was rescued by Luo Tian before, but the consumption was extremely high, especially in his chest, he still felt like he had been pressed by a stone, but as soon as he swallowed the pill, he immediately felt a cold line to his heart, and his breathing was much smoother after he was released.

"In three days, we'll go back to the city."

Luo Tian had been paying attention to Jiang Tiesheng's heart, and he found that after swallowing the pill, the remaining black qi in Jiang Tiesheng's heart had lightened a little, and he knew that it was indeed working.

"Good!"

The most important thing now was Jiang Tiesheng's body, so Fang Ru agreed without even thinking about it.
