Chapter 180: Count the north, who is the realm of Jinghua
PS: My head hurts a little today, the quality may not be good, forgive QWQ
A trace of daylight leaks in from the carved window lattice, and on the windowsill are several celadon bowls, soaked in round hen beads.
Zhu Yan sniffed the smell, and there was a very faint smell of wine wafting from the medicinal fragrance around him, "This is wine?" Liquor? β
"Yes." Qi Niang nodded, took a small bamboo tube and scooped out half a tube, and poured it into the iron cage with mice on the side.
The mice seemed to have gotten used to the smell of drinking water, and instead of resisting at all, they rushed forward to grab a drink.
Zhu Yan looked at it and shook his head slightly, even if this celadon bowl was soaked in chicken beads that had been cut open, it was still too difficult to extract the toxins inside and reach the point where adding drinking water could kill people.
Seeing that several mice in the cage were crowded in the drinking place, Zhu Yanyan quickly pulled a rat tail and quickly lifted a mouse out of the cage.
"Ah Yan, be careful!" Never looked frightened, after the mouse was suddenly lifted and frightened, it would naturally resist in every possible way, and even arched its body to bite Zhu Yan's hand pinching its tail.
Zhu Yan raised her eyebrows, it's just a mouse, she hasn't scratched it before, the rat's tail is very long, as long as she pinches the tip of the tail, the palm part of the hand is impossible to bite, and the sleeve part is a tightened narrow sleeve, so there is no need to worry.
Qi Niang's face was calm, only a little surprise in her eyes, ordinary girls saw the mouse, either screamed or dodged, the best is to pick up a broom to fight, where does anyone dare to catch it with their hands? And the way she catches mice. How can an untrained person choose to pinch the tip of the tail as soon as he comes up? Twenty-four said that this girl is not simple, and it is really not simple.
The few people who were busy stirring and grinding on the stone table behind them were also attracted by the never-ending warning. Seeing Zhu Yan holding a mouse in his hand, they were all dumbfounded, but what surprised them even more was that it was still behind, Zhu Yan didn't even frown, and with the other hand, he grabbed the back of the mouse's neck and pressed it on the tableβit was also a very skillful technique.
"Laugh." Zhu Yan saw that her technique was not unfamiliar, but now she wanted her to twist the mouse's neck. It seems to be more difficult to start than before, maybe I haven't touched it for a long time, Zhu Yan himself thinks so.
Although a few people on the side couldn't see through the identity of this girl. But just now I had already guessed that most of them had something to do with their own son-in-law, and I didn't want to make a move so neatly, looking more like a member of their medicine shop, and the gossip heart was even more tickled in an instant. Moreover. A pair of eyes began to look around at their usual companions in the medicine shop. Let's see if this girl is a companion in the past, and once flew up the high branches?
"What are the girl's plans?" Qi Niang looked at her quietly, this girl didn't seem to have the intention of killing the mouse, nor did she deliberately show off her skills, so what did she want to do?
Zhu Yan let go of the hand that tightly restrained the mouse, and turned to gently caress the smooth fur of the mouse, and the mouse, which was originally frightened, gradually quieted down, lying on the cold table and panting weakly.
"Scared you." Zhu Yan lifted the mouse up again. glanced at its small black and shiny round eyes, and still put them back in the cage.
There was some uproar among the people around. This girl just moved so neatly, but finally said such a sentence, what is this? Should she be ruthless, or kind-hearted?
"Qi Niang, I'm afraid it's still inappropriate to extract it with wine." Zhu Yan shook his head regretfully, it is already commendable to realize that the solubility of alcohol to organic matter is large, but not to mention how large the concentration of this so-called "spirit" is, it can really be extracted, and the toxic ingredient in it is acacia bean poison protein, and no matter how toxic it is, it is also a protein, and it is difficult to maintain inactivity and inactivation if it is soaked in alcohol for too long.
"So, what can the girl do?" Qi Niang made an appearance of humbly asking for advice.
Zhu Yan was slightly embarrassed, she hadn't even studied the toxicology of traditional Chinese medicine seriously, the separation and purification of chemistry, and she only knew the skin, how did she know what should be used to extract the toxic substances in it.
"What does Zhu Yan mean, Qi Niang can directly grind the chicken mother beads, squeeze them into cakes, and then use the concentration...... Well, the wine that has been steamed several times to soak is preferably no longer than one day. Zhu Yan pursed her lips, the only thing she can give now is this, if she can know how ricin is extracted, it will be much simpler.
Qi Niang nodded, although she didn't quite agree with Zhu Yan's Jianyi, after all, they always thought that the longer they soaked, the more toxins could leach out.
"This girl, you're not right." It was a woman who spoke, who sounded about the same age as Zhu Yan, and was a little aggressive, "How to soak it out after only one day, doesn't the girl know that it will take months to make this red yeast rice?" β
"Eighteenth, this is not the place for you to speak." Although she couldn't see Qi Niang's expression, she was angry from the sound.
However, the girl who is called the eighteenth son of the ...... of Qi Niang still wants to argue.
Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows, "Red yeast rice is rotten, but this immersion is the same as cooking, there is no certain heat, so naturally the vegetables and meat cannot be cooked, but if it takes too long, it will only be too rotten and difficult to swallow." β
"You ......" Eighteen Zi glared at her hatefully with a pair of big eyes, and muttered quietly as he bit his lip, "Strong words." β
ββ¦β¦ Eighteen Girls...... It's fun. Zhu Yan raised her eyes and chuckled, does this girl like Yongwu? That's why I jumped out to find my own trouble.
But alas, Nevergo just glanced at her hastily and didn't listen again.
Zhu Yan felt that in order to compete for such a little leisure, this girl was afraid that she would be taught a good lesson by Qi Niang for a while, which was really not worth it.
Seeing that Zhu Yan was not angry, Qi Niang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and ignored the matter, "I heard that Twenty-four said that the girl was going to leave at noon, and Qi Niang didn't want to keep you more." β
"Yes, it's time for Zhu Yan to leave." Zhu Yan took a breath and slowly exhaled.
Although Yong Wu wanted to keep her, Zhu Yan must still be angry about the matter just now, and he didn't think he would follow her if he left her, just walked quietly beside her.
After changing into a blouse, Zhu Yan stepped out of the pharmacy with his front feet, and when he looked up, he saw more than a dozen people standing in the main hall, some men and women, all of them were middle-aged, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes fell on her.
"Miss......" Xingye stood far behind the crowd, looking at her pitifully.
"What's going on?" Zhu Yan bit her lip lightly, didn't she plan to let her go?
"Miss Zhu, the patriarch of the Xiaxiang clan." A man in his fifties stepped forward and arched his hand to Zhu Yan, "Dare to ask if Miss Zhu is indeed the eldest daughter of Mr. Juzhi?" (To be continued......)
