Chapter 16: The Stone Pen

Li Shizhen pays attention to self-cultivation and family name, and he rarely gets angry, but when he gets angry, he can't be angry, the people in the whole medical hall rushed over, no one spoke, it was silent, whether it was a disciple, an apprentice or a buddy, they all stopped what they were doing, and dozens of eyes looked at Qin Lin.

"Oops", Lu Yuanzhi, who came in a hurry, kept wiping the sweat beads on his forehead with his sleeves, and he didn't know how to say anything about helping Qin Lin, so he could only stand aside and be anxious, and complained to the senior brother who had a good relationship around him: "Brother Qin doesn't know that Master Tai hates to use alchemy and cultivation to deceive people the most?" Alas, it's all because I didn't make it clear to him, how can it be good now! ”

Zhang Jianlan shrank behind Li Jianfang's side, and his originally upright face became distorted and ugly because of schadenfreude.

During the Jiajing period, Dan Dao prevailed, Taoist priests Shao Yuanjie, Tao Zhongwen and others actually went to the Ministry of Rites as a magic official, Tao Zhongwen also served as a young master, a young master, and a young guard.

Tai teacher Li Shizhen to carry forward medicine as a lifelong mission, the most hated witch superstition and alchemy and cultivation of immortals, in Wuchang Chu Wangfu Ren Feng Ancestral Hall and Jingshi Tai Hospital during the fight with the demon Tao, helpless court dignitaries believe in the demon Tao, Li Shizhen authentic medicine is not popular, can only return to Qizhou hometown to practice medicine to help the world, even the life's work condensed "Compendium of Materia Medica" has not been published, so how can he not hate the Dan Dao method that bewitches the world?

The Li Medical Center strictly prohibits alchemy, and if it is found, it will be severely punished, and it will be severely reprimanded and expelled from the medical center.

Qin Lin dared to instigate Li Shizhen's most beloved granddaughter to open the furnace for alchemy, how could it end well?

Zhang Jianlan's reputation plummeted not long ago because of the mistake of Artemisia annua, and he knew that he had committed public anger, he was a bit of a small city, so he didn't jump out this time, but went to inform Li Jianfang as soon as possible.

Li Jianfang saw that Qin Lin was angry with his father Li Shizhen, and secretly rejoiced that he had a heartbroken look, looked at Qin Lin and said: "Qin Xian's nephew, the technique of Qihuang is the right way to help the world and save people, and the left way is unacceptable, it will harm others and oneself at the least, and at the worst it will be a disciple of the White Lotus Cult, and it will never recover!" ”

Qin Lin's anger grew in his heart, Li Jianfang seemed to be educating his disciples on the surface, but in fact, he insisted that this was a left-handed technique, and the meaning of his words was to introduce the White Lotus Sect, which was strictly banned by the imperial court, intentionally and intentionally to beat me to death with a stick!

Coupled with what Li Jianfang said that day, "abide by his duty", "don't covet it", and "don't get Longwangshu", Qin Lin knew before and after contacting Li Jianfang that he was very reluctant to have too close a relationship with Qing Dai, but thinking about it, Li Jianfang was only Qing Dai's third uncle, why did he have such a position?

Pang Xian also rushed over, looking at the sulfur and black stone grease left in the milk bowl and medicine mill, his heart was chuckled, and he saluted Li Shizhen: "Master Qiqi, Qin Lin is young and knowledgeable, he doesn't know the severity, and there are some fools, and children are just playing, so it seems that there is no need to delve into it." ”

Li Jianfang's face sank, and he said lightly: "Only by punishing the front and the rear can we set an example." ”

Qin Lin suddenly laughed, and if there was no one around, everyone looked sideways.

Li Jianfang said hatefully: "This kid can still laugh!" ”

Zhang Jianlan's eyes rolled when she heard this, knowing that the master was angry, she was overjoyed, jumped out and pointed at Qin Lin and said, "The surname is Qin, not long after you came to the medical hall, you dare to look at the elder!" As soon as the imperial court strictly investigated the White Lotus Cult, you opened a furnace for alchemy in the medical hall, I think you are intent on causing disaster to our medical hall! ”

Qin Lin glanced at him disdainfully, and asked unhurriedly, "Who said I was refining pills?" ”

"Sulfur and black stone grease are calcined in the furnace, not alchemy, is it still porcelain?" Zhang Jianlan said and sneered again and again.

Qin Lin said coldly: "It's really stupid, if you put sulfur and black stone grease in the furnace and burn it, it's alchemy," then put you in the furnace and become a roasted whole sheep?" ”

Li Qingdai was suddenly so fierce by Li Shizhen at first, and her grandfather, who had always been kind, was angry and severely reprimanded, and was so aggrieved that his eyes filled with two packets of tears, until he heard Qin Lin say it bitterly and novelly, and immediately burst into tears and laughed, "Where is Senior Brother Qin's alchemy?" He said that he wanted to use black stone grease to make a pen, and now he is burning the refill. ”

Ah, not alchemy? Everyone looked at each other.

Qin Lin bowed respectfully to Li Shizhen: "Master Qiyu, this is a pen made of graphite by the apprentice, there is no need to use ink, the lines can be extremely thin, and it is used to draw fine illustrations for Qing Dai." ”

The pill is generally rubbed into a small round ball, but Qin Lin made it with sulfur and black stone grease in the shape of a thin strip, but it is similar to the pen, listening to Qing Dai and Qin Lin say this, Li Shizhen immediately believed seventy percent, his expression became gentle, and he nodded and said: "If it is a pen, it is naturally fine, but from the beginning of Meng Tian's pen making, it is to cut bamboo for the tube, and the hair for the edge, and the black stone grease for the pen has never been seen." ”

Li Jianfang also felt that he was a little arbitrary, but his face was a little unbearable, and he argued with his own strength: "Qin Lin, you said that you are making a pen, if you can write words, even if you are telling the truth, if you can't, it is a lie." ”

What's so hard about that? Qin Lin took out the refill from the barbecue in the kiln and let it cool slowly.

Lu Yuanzhi had a look in his eyes, and he had already taken the blank paper.

Qin Lin didn't talk nonsense, and directly pinched the refill and wrote the words "Hanging Pot to Help the World" and "Wonderful Hands Rejuvenating" on the paper, and the lead-black handwriting was particularly eye-catching on the snow-white paper.

At this point, everyone no longer had any doubts, Li Jianfang was embarrassed, and glared at Zhang Jianlan fiercely, because his father was inconvenient to have a seizure here, so he was so uncomfortable.

Zhang Jianlan and Bai Yong were dejected, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into, and the ridicule of the brothers and sisters came into their ears, making them red-faced.

Qing Dai is the happiest person, she has rich experience in drawing, she knows how convenient and fast it is to draw at a glance, she picked up a refill and wrote and painted on the paper, her white palm was stained with black powder of the refill, and her delicate face smiled as bright and moving as a summer flower.

Li Shizhen knows how hard it is for her granddaughter to draw, but she can't do fine painting when she is old, and her sons can't help with their own things, so she has to let her granddaughter take over.

Now that he has a better drawing tool, Li Shizhen nodded at Qin Lin again and again: "You really didn't disappoint the old man, well, not bad!" ”

Qin Lin smiled: "It's not convenient to write like this, you can go further." ”

He asked the men to bend the peeling knife of the concocted herbs, make a tool for carving grooves, and cut a small wooden stick from the middle, and with a push of the tool to carve the groove in the middle, put the refill in the groove, and put the two pieces of wood together and glued them together to form a complete pencil.

"Well, you won't get your hands dirty, and you can use a knife and sandpaper to trim the tip of the pen at any time, and you can write as much as you want."

Qin Lin taught Qingdai to use, and everyone saw that Hunting Xinxi picked up one and scribbled on the paper, and they all felt that although this thing did not have a vigorous and powerful stroke like a brush, it was much easier to master the lines, and it was really convenient to draw sketches or something.

The "Compendium of Materia Medica", which has been condensed all his life's work, can have more exquisite and detailed illustrations, Li Shizhen is in a very good mood, strokes his gray beard, and looks at Qin Lin's eyes becoming more and more kind.

Qing Dai happily drew Banlan root with a pencil, she didn't know how to use a pencil, she still hung her wrist in the air like holding a brush, the first time she used it inappropriately, she accidentally crooked the line to the side, her small mouth was deflated, and she said frustratedly: "Oh, why am I so stupid, Ye Wei has drawn his head again." ”

Qin Lin smiled and asked everyone: "There is coarse bread, uh~ definitely not, take a piece of dry steamed bread and give it to me." ”

Lu Yuanzhi ran the fastest, happily took two big steamed buns, and also held a bowl of soy milk: "Brother Qin thinks he is hungry, but unfortunately the steamed buns in the morning have been eaten, but today's steamed buns are still strong." ”

Qin Lin didn't eat the steamed bun, but put it at the mouth of the hot earthen kiln, and it was quickly roasted dry, broke off the small half, and gently wiped it where the Qing Dai was wrongly drawn.

In front of everyone's eyes, the ink disappeared without a trace!

In other words, the mistakes and mistakes made with this "stone pen" can be modified!

Qing Dai lehehe, holding the stone pen like a baby, said happily: "This thing is so good, with it, I don't know how good it is to draw a picture or something." ”

Li Shizhen touched her granddaughter's head and said with a smile: "It's just not good, that is, it can't be used to write IOUs, otherwise someone else will erase the handwriting, and ten taels of silver will be changed to one hundred taels for you, and then there will be a lawsuit." ”

The disciples burst into laughter, this Master Tai doesn't joke often, and he is obviously in a good mood today.

Li Jianfang was also helplessly accompanied by the smiling face, but Li Shizhen was not ready to let him go like this, his old face was flat, and he said angrily: "In the future, if there is anything to figure out first, then talk about it, everyone will follow the clouds, and there is still a little bit of determination?" I think even if you go to the hospital, it's enough to choke, but it's better not to go, so as not to embarrass the old man! ”

Li Jianfang lowered his head deeply, he was gradually scared at this time, the first time he misused Artemisia annua, and the second time he wronged Qin Lin, both times it was related to him, and he knew that his father was deeply dissatisfied.

There is nothing on the side, no matter how strict the punishment between father and son is, it is not ashamed, even if the students see it, they can only say that Li Jianfang is filial to his father, Li Shizhen is fatal, and his father is kind and filial to his son.

But Li Shizhen's words meant that he didn't really want this son to go to the Tai Hospital to work, and when he understood this, Li Jianfang broke out in a cold sweat and wet his back - all his efforts in recent years have been towards the Tai Hospital, if his father really changed his mind, then everything would be over!

Fortunately, Li Shizhen also knew that this son's medical skills were actually extremely high, but his surname was still a little worse in cultivation, and when he saw that he was ashamed, he no longer punished him, and snorted coldly: "Think about it yourself, what kind of state of mind should my generation of doctors have." ”

After that, Wen Yan said to Qin Lin: "The old man sees that you hold a pen differently from ordinary people, do you think this stone pen should be used like this?" Where did you learn this? ”

"It was used by a disciple who saw a red-haired ghost in Wuchang, and it was not bad to imitate it by himself by figuring out the truth."

Li Shizhen nodded, there are a lot of Hongmaoyi people along the southern coast, and there are a few who have entered the inland along the Yangtze River in recent years, and there are many strange things, such as self-striking bells and Hongyi cannons, this small stone pen is insignificant. Then said:

"You teach Qingdai how to use it as soon as possible, you teach her to draw, she teaches you the basics of medicine, and the two of you should be each other's mentors."

Oh yes! Qin Lin was overjoyed: Old man, you are so cute......
