Chapter 75: Selecting Medicinal Herbs
During the hour when Chen Xuanli was asleep, he called Xu Qu in on the weekend, gave him some instructions, and then perfected the escape plan with the county lord Suyuan and Yang Yuhuan in the carriage, including discussing some secret codes along the road, in case they got separated, they could reunite through the codes, and they could also remind each other of the unexpected situation, as well as the specific meeting place and time.
Xu Qu didn't expect to be middle-aged and have to do such an exciting thing, and he was a little scared, but his trust in the weekend made him proud.
He patted his chest on the spot and promised in a low voice, "Don't worry, the old shopkeeper, I will escort Lord Suyuan and Yang Guifei to Luoyang safely." ”
With Xu Qu's loyalty to himself, and his firm determination to follow himself in the face of death, he was very relieved on the weekend.
And the county lord Su Yuan and Yang Yuhuan thought of fleeing separately from the weekend, and they were inexplicably a little worried in their hearts.
Su Yuan, who was a bold artist, thought for a moment and proposed, "Otherwise, after we escape, we will quietly meet you outside, and we can help you in case there are pursuers." ”
Weekend made an excuse and refused, "Don't worry, I will suddenly disappear the teleportation exercise, it is easy to get out, you can wait for me in Luoyang with peace of mind." ”
In fact, there is a system watching the whole process, and his task has been completed, and he can ask the system to leave at any time and return to the modern era, which is similar to teleportation.
Yang Yuhuan was powerless, and she had to rely on everyone on the issue of escape, she didn't want to be a burden on the weekend, and she didn't worry about leaving alone on the weekend, for fear that after he would use the teleportation exercise, like back then, he would suddenly disappear, and there was no news from him since.
Weekend noticed it and explained funny, "Don't worry, even if I want to leave this time, I'll wait until you're completely safe." ”
"No, you can't leave again!" Neither the county lord of Su Yuan nor Yang Yuhuan could accept this matter, and they opposed it in unison.
After saying that, the two looked at each other and began to sob.
Crystal teardrops, through their concerned and sad eyes, rolled down on the two delicate, white faces, which was distressing.
The county lord of Suyuan cried and cried, remembering the promise made before the weekend, and asked unwillingly, "What else do you have to do?" Do you want to disappear for another twenty-three years?! ”
In fact, I don't know if I can come to the Tang Dynasty again when I go back this time, but now I can only comfort them first.
He patiently coaxed, "Don't worry, I won't leave you, I'm just worried that you will insist on staying here with me, distracting me, and putting you in danger, so I have to scare you like this." ”
I see.
Yang Yuhuan has always trusted the weekend, accepted his explanation, stopped his tears, pulled the sleeve of the county lord of Suyuan, sat together, and whispered.
And Xu Qu was most annoyed by the tears of the women, and when he saw the second daughter starting to sob, he had already stepped over Chen Xuanli's "corpse" and consciously returned to the outside to sentry.
The weekend was relieved.
He noticed that after Yang Yuhuan's words, the county lord of Suyuan quickly stopped his tears.
Although he was very curious about what Yang Yuhuan said, he was a big man, and he was embarrassed to eavesdrop on the whispers of his second daughter, so he had to rehearse the escape plan he had just made repeatedly in his heart to ensure that there were no details and loopholes, so that nothing went wrong.
An hour passed, and Chen Xuanli really woke up and turned around as Su Yuan said.
He asked suspiciously, who was watching him on the weekend, "Zhou Xian, what's wrong with me?" ”
The weekend had already thought of the wording, and pretended to be angry and said to Chen Xuanli, "General Chen still doesn't seem to believe in my ability? Just now, I have a good heart, watching you march tired, your body may plant disease roots, endangering your health, so I specially cast a spell to let you rest for an hour, now, an hour has passed, don't you feel that your physical and mental state has changed for the better? ”
Chen Xuanli looked at what he said, believed it, and hurriedly calmed down and felt it carefully.
When people enter a deep sleep, even if the time is short, they will naturally feel much more relaxed and much better.
Chen Xuanli took Tang Xuanzong to flee this time, marching all the way, he was already very tired, but he still had to camp step by step under the orders of Tang Xuanzong and the remote command of the crown prince Li Heng, and his heart was even more tired, and he had not had a good rest for a long time.
When he wakes up now, it is indeed as I said at the weekend, there is a good change in his physical and mental state, and it is an excellent change, because his body feels like his energy has returned to the normal period before, and his body is not full of backache and leg swelling, and he is full of motivation.
He immediately respectfully replied to the weekend's words, "Zhou Xian forgives me, I didn't mean to offend, thank you Zhou Xian for helping, I am grateful, the emperor still needs me to protect him, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time." ”
Zhou Zhou replied, "Then it will not be far away to send the general, and when the medicinal materials are complete, I will naturally open a furnace for the emperor to refine the elixir." ”
Not long after Chen Xuanli got out of the carriage, Xu went to see Gao Lishi coming in a hurry, accompanied by a carriage.
He hurriedly said goodbye to the weekend.
Yang Yuhuan and Su Yuan County Lord also heard it, and they all looked at the weekend, waiting for his arrangement.
On the weekend, he just told Su Yuan and Yuhuan to stay in the carriage and find an opportunity to escape as planned, and at the same time told them briefly about some of the problems and solutions that he had just thought of on the way to escape.
Soon, Gao Lishi's voice came from far and near outside, "Zhou Xian, I have brought you all the best medicinal materials in our accompanying convoy, come out for alchemy, the emperor's affairs can't be delayed." ”
Zhou Zhou quickly got out of the carriage and pretended to be happy and said, "I didn't expect that there were medicinal herbs in the accompanying convoy, wonderful, I am also in a hurry to give the emperor alchemy, let me see." ”
Colliers didn't expect the weekend to be so cooperative. He really didn't want to be able to refine the Immortal Pill on the weekend, because in case Tang Xuanzong really became younger, he was afraid that this throne would not be replaced.
However, these are not the issues he should consider, as far as he is concerned, if Tang Xuanzong can live for a long time, he has no loss.
Just a little stunned, he raised his hand and said, "Zhou Xian, please first, I have asked the imperial doctors of the Imperial Physician Department to transport the medicinal materials to the open space not far from here, and wait for Zhou Xian to pick them up." ”
On the weekend, I looked in the direction he pointed and found that dozens of meters ahead, there was a carriage, with many cargo boxes behind it, which must have contained the medicinal herbs brought by Gao Lishi.
He was accompanied by Colliers and came to the container.
Before he got closer, he smelled the smell of various fragrant medicinal herbs, and it seemed that the palace's high-grade precious medicinal materials were not scarce.
He pretended to walk up to the first crate and opened one of the small crates of medicinal herbs.
In the box lay a few ginseng trees, the roots were about two feet long, three fingers wide at the end, and the color was yellow, similar to the 300-year-old ginseng that I had seen at auction on a modern weekend.
Witty, he boldly commented, "These three-hundred-year-old ginseng looks good, and it should come from Changbai Mountain." ”
Changbai Mountain ginseng has been famous since ancient times, and the ginseng of Changbai Mountain is yellow and clear, because there is Tianchi water infiltrating the foothills, and the ginseng grows well.
"Zhou Xian is really a master!" Colliers didn't expect to really understand medicinal herbs on the weekend.
He originally deliberately instructed the imperial doctors to erase the marked boxes to test the weekend, but who knew that he even said the same year, and the doubts in his heart were slightly dispelled, but he didn't really believe that he could refine the so-called "elixir of immortality".
However, it is normal for ginseng to be recognized, and Colliers is unwilling to open another box of herbs and wait for the answer of the weekend.
On the weekend, he thought it was another medicinal herb from the previous year, but he didn't expect it to be a green plant with a height of 80 cm, and now he was a little confused, what is this?
Look closely, the rhizome is thick and short, dark tan, the leaf edge has prickly teeth, and the flowers are white, and then search the knowledge base in the brain according to the characteristics, none of them match, what he knows is actually He Shou Wu and ginseng, these strange-shaped herbs, he has never seen it at all.
But, so what? Colliers had to pick out the medicinal materials according to his requirements, he was worried that he didn't have a chance to step on this guy a few more feet, this guy actually picked out the medicinal materials at his request, and also picked out the medicinal materials he didn't know, obviously he was deliberately embarrassing him, stupid, he would eat his set?
He immediately turned pale, and deliberately criticized Gao Lishi loudly and seriously, "These unpopular things are not the medicinal materials I want at all, do you not understand the method I taught you to select medicinal materials before, or do you deliberately pick the wrong medicinal materials for me to use, so that I can't practice the elixir of immortality, so that the emperor can't live forever?"
