Chapter 702: The Truth Exposed
PS: Thank you for the tip.
"How can a gourd be so useful? Who will charge with a gourd now? I was accidentally treated as a psychopath. A female tourist said. She also knew that the gourd was used as a feng shui prop, and she had seen someone string several gourds together and hang them by the door.
Outrageously, some people actually think that gourds also have the role of medical treatment and health. From their point of view, the gourd is a magic weapon used by physicians to hold elixirs, which can bring blessings and auspiciousness and remove calamities; And absorb the filthy breath in the space, and restore the original clean and clear. For people who are not in good health or suffering from diseases, it can alleviate the symptoms and make the body and mind better.
He also told her that from the perspective of feng shui numerology, the reason why people get sick has a lot to do with the sick rune star. After finding out the location of the sick talisman star in the house, and then placing the gourd, you can achieve the effect of protecting your health. Isn't this foolishness?
However, Chu Jiaqiang knew that in addition to the gourd being able to hold medicine, the body could also be medicine. The gourd is sweet in taste, smooth and non-toxic, and its vines, whiskers, leaves, flowers, seeds, and shells can be used as medicine to treat a variety of diseases.
From the ancient medical books left by the old Taoist priest, it is known that the gourd flower is sweet, flat in nature, non-toxic, can be used as an antidote, and is especially effective for all kinds of fistulas. The medicinal properties of vine and whiskers are the same as those of flowers, and they can treat measles. Gourd gourd and seeds, bitter taste, cold, poisonous, can cure dental disease, gums or swollen or exposed, loose teeth. It can also treat swollen face, limbs, urination, nasal congestion, and all carbuncle sores.
In particular, the medicinal value of gourd shell is the highest, its taste is sweet, flat, non-toxic, used to dissipate heat and detoxification, moisten the lungs and facilitate convenience. The more aged the gourd shell. The higher the efficacy.
"Isn't Lao Tzu used to hold pills? It's famous! A young man with eyes spoke.
Hong Tianxiang was puzzled: "Really?" Lao Tzu is the ancestor of Taoism, I have heard of it. ”
The young man pursed his lips, seeming to be a little disdainful: "Hongjun is the Taoist ancestor, and Lao Tzu is just the leader of the human sect." His Nine Turns Golden Pill is quite famous, and it is usually placed in the capital gourd, don't you know? ”
The others listened to the sweat, and the myths and stories of this guy were brought out. It can be seen that this guy often reads classical fairy tales of the gods of the wilderness.
"Does it mean that during the flood time, there was a gourd vine in Buzhou Mountain, which was one of the four spiritual roots of heaven and earth?" Chu Jiaqiang felt that this guy was quite interesting. Ask on purpose.
The guy nodded like a chicken pecking at millet: "Yes, it seems that you know a lot about ancient history in Lao Village!" ”
According to his understanding, there were innate spiritual root gourd vines during the flood famine, and there were seven gourds. The first, purple-gold. The purple gold red gourd was obtained by Lao Tzu, and later given to his doppelganger Taishang Laojun Shengdan; The second, purple-red, the red gourd of the Ninety-Nine Scattered Souls, was obtained by the people of Hongyun Dao, and later because of the dispute over the holy position. was killed by Kunpeng; The third, purple-white, cut the immortal gourd, was obtained by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi. practiced to kill the immortal gourd, and gave his tenth son Lu Press, and then Lu Press cut off his evil corpse through this; The fourth, purple-cyan. Recruit demon gourd, which is obtained by Nuwa. made into a demon flag, which can attract all the goblins in the world; The fifth, purple and yellow, water and fire gourd, was obtained by the Tongtian Sect Master, and there were two water and fire unicorns; The sixth, purple-green, is obtained by the Emperor Haotian, which can give birth to the treasures of the world and make it to a higher level. The seventh, purple-black, can become a space of its own, obtained by the Yuan Shi Tianzun.
When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter. Chu Jiaqiang was quite speechless, and said secretly: Big brother, isn't that history? The feeling is that I was poisoned by reading novels, and I actually treated it as history, and this benevolent brother is also the best one!
When the monkey finished eating, under the gaze of everyone, the monkey patted his belly, then took off the gourd hanging from his waist with vines, pulled out the wooden cork on it, and poured two mouthfuls in front of everyone.
"Huh! What does this guy drink? Chen Wu twitched his nose, suddenly smelled a faint smell of wine, and immediately thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened, pointed to the gourd, and said in surprise: "This can't be a monkey bar?" ”
The others were not sluggish, and immediately connected the matter, and suddenly there was a feeling of seeing the moon through the clouds.
Zhou Furong suddenly realized: "This guy saw that everyone didn't give him wine to drink, so he ran back and took out the monkey wine?" This guy didn't care about the three-seven-twenty-one, snatched the gourd from the monkey's hand, and sniffed it deeply.
Sure enough, in addition to the faint smell of alcohol, there are also some mountain herbs. It seems that the rumors are true, monkey wine contains medicinal herbs, no wonder the ancients always said that monkey wine can prolong life.
Regardless of the monkey's reluctance, Zhou Furong immediately poured a mouthful into his mouth. For monkey wine, they have been coveting it for a long time. There was a time when they always asked the monkey about this treasure, but the monkey didn't know if he really didn't understand, or he was still pretending to be confused, and the oil and salt didn't enter, but he didn't see it get it out and drink it.
The wine is very light, the degree should be very low, sweeter than wine, full of the fragrance of wild fruits, plus a light medicinal taste. For a while, Zhou Furong couldn't say anything about the taste. What's even more amazing is that after drinking it, there is a cool feeling in the mouth. It can be guessed that when brewing, the monkey must have put a mint-like herb in it.
Chu Jiaqiang's mouth opened, wanting to say something, but seeing that Zhou Furong had already drunk, he closed his mouth very knowingly.
"How? Isn't it delicious? Chen Wu grabbed him.
Seeing that this guy was about to take two sips, Chu Jiaqiang finally couldn't help but speak: "Did this monkey drink it just now?" ”
Chen Wu immediately stopped his hand, looked at the gourd, and swallowed his saliva. Although he would love to take two sips and see what the legendary monkey wine tasted like, he didn't want to eat the monkey's saliva.
Everyone looked at Zhou Furong with strange eyes, and some people were uncomfortable, seeing Zhou Furong's stiff expression like being struck by lightning, they were inevitably a little gloating.
Zhou Furong was not yet intoxicated, and when he heard Chu Jiaqiang's words, he was like a lightning strike. After he came back to his senses, he yelled at the Chu family: "Boss, you did this on purpose, why didn't you remind you just now?" ”
Chu Jiaqiang spread his hands and expressed helplessness: "What can I do?" Just about to speak, you drank it, and reminded a fart? I can only blame you for being too anxious. ”
Zhou Furong almost burst into tears, and the pleasure of drinking monkey wine just now was gone.
Chu Jiaqiang was puzzled: "It won't be this guy knocking on the door last night, right?" The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and he couldn't find anyone else who was so boring except for the monkey.
The others were stunned for a moment, and then they all agreed with Chu Jiaqiang's idea.
"I think it's this guy's handiwork." Ye Jisheng agreed.
As soon as the truth was revealed, many people booed, because they thought about the incident so complicated, and in the end it was actually a storm caused by a monkey.
