Chapter 142: Half Immortal Descends to Earth
Yang Qiuchi carefully recalled the biological experiment done in the small inn, after the duck swallowed a lump of honey in Lu Xueru's porcelain bottle, he immediately fell to the ground and died, and in Fang Cai's experiment, the duck ate two lumps of honey and supported a stick of incense before dying, it can be seen that Lu Xueru's bottle of honey is much more poisonous than the honey of Mrs. Wang's family.
It has been verified just now that Lu Xueru's honey is the poisonous honey of Mrs. Wang who bought, and the same poisonous honey has a different poisonous surname, indicating that Lu Xueru's honey is likely to have been poisoned by others! Moreover, the problem is likely to lie in the dispensing of other medicines in that home remedies.
Now we must immediately go to Fan's to find out what this dispensing is and who gave this prescription.
These things are tedious to say, but in Yang Qiuchi's mind, he figured it out and said, "Go back to Beishao Village to find Fan's immediately." ”
Hu Jiang asked, "What?" Is it still the poison of Fan's? ”
"No, it's likely that there is a problem with the honey medicine!" Yang Qiuchi dialed it a little, Hu Jiang and the others immediately understood, and the group hurriedly went down the mountain.
Before leaving, Yang Qiuchi told Mrs. Wang's family that although these poisonous honeys could not poison people, they were still poisonous after all, and they would have an impact on human health, so they should immediately destroy those poisonous honeys and cut down all the oleanders in the vicinity to prevent bees from collecting oleander honey in the coming year. Moreover, it is best to use ducks to conduct experiments on the new honey collected in the future to see if it is poisonous and then sell it.
Mrs. Wang's family was almost arrested as the murderer who claimed to have poisoned them, and they were really frightened, and they were so grateful to Yang Qiuchi for finding out the truth and returning their innocence, and of course promised to follow Yang Qiuchi's instructions immediately. However, even if Yang Qiuchi doesn't ask for this, they will destroy these poisonous honey and oleanders, this Mrs. Wang's family is still very responsible, and they will never earn money with a conscience.
Yang Qiuchi and his party rushed down the mountain and rushed back to Nanshao Village, where they came to Lu Xueconfucianism, where Fan and Shen were temporarily detained.
Yang Qiuchi couldn't take a break, and immediately interrogated Fan's: "What is the recipe for the medicine you gave your master to treat sores on the mouth and tongue?" After a pause, he asked, "Did you mash the petals of oleander and put them in honey?" ”
The reason why Yang Qiuchi guessed this way is because oleander is a relatively common traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effect of analgesic, detoxification and swelling, and many traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions for the treatment of boils have oleander (generally for external use), however, oleander is poisonous. Traditional Chinese medicine is such a mysterious knowledge, one more is poison, and one less money is water, which can cure diseases just right.
There are oleanders everywhere near this Nanshao village. The common sense that oleander is poisonous is also known to the general public, and there are often cases in the countryside where cattle and sheep eat oleander by mistake and die of poisoning, however, the common people often use oleander as a home remedy to treat diseases due to lack of medicine or listening to home remedies, which is actually very dangerous.
Fan Shiqi said: "My lord, do you also know this recipe? This home remedy works. ”
"Works? It's very useful to tell you to see Hades! Yang Qiuchi said angrily, "If you don't understand, don't believe those home remedies, although this oleander has the effect of analgesic, detoxification and swelling, it is also highly toxic, and it will kill people if used improperly!" Your lord probably used your home remedies to die! ”
Fan suddenly cried in fright: "My lord, I really don't know, there have been people who used this oleander flower to make medicine primers before, and they were all right, I thought ...... I really don't know. ”
This honey is already poisonous, and this Fan family listened to the home remedies, and added poisonous oleander petals to the honey, which added poison to poison, so how could the old Xiucai Lu Xueru withstand it, and it was strange if he didn't die.
Mistaken belief in home remedies, this is how ignorance kills people! Yang Qiuchi sighed secretly.
Hu Jiang also sighed: "It turned out that the bee and Yuan cooperated to murder Lu Xueru, an old showman, I can't even think of this result if I want to break my head." ”
A few catchers stepped forward and locked Fan with iron chains.
The concubine Shen began to cry again and wanted to scratch the Fan family, to kill her to avenge their master, but was pulled away by Song Yun'er.
Okay, the case is solved, go home!
Yang Qiuchi walked out of the room with a heavy heart, for some reason, he always felt that there was something strange about this case. After taking a few steps forward, he suddenly stopped, staring straight at the opposite hill and not moving.
Song Yun'er asked, "Brother, why are you in a daze?" ”
Yang Qiuchi didn't answer, turned his head to look at the clump of oleanders next to Lu Xueru, looked up and down, left and right for a while, walked over again, picked a leaf, held it in his hand and looked at it, his brows furrowed.
Song Yun'er knew that as long as his brother was in a daze, he was thinking about some strange question, and she didn't bother, standing beside him and waiting quietly for him to finish in a daze.
Yang Qiuchi suddenly tore the leaf in his hand into pieces, and then put the fragments in the palm of his hand to examine them carefully, his brows furrowed even tighter.
After being stunned for a while, Yang Qiuchi walked up to Fan and asked, "Have you added anything else besides adding crushed oleander petals to your honey?" ”
Fan shook his head crying, his gray hair fluttering in the cold wind, which made people very sympathetic.
Yang Qiuchi asked again: "Who told you this recipe?" ”
"It's Zhao Banxian who is a fortune teller at the entrance of the village."
"Mr. fortune teller?" Yang Qiuchi was a little strange, "Will the gentleman who tells the hexagram also see a doctor?" ”
Fan nodded, crying in a low voice.
Mi Li next to him interjected: "Young Master Yang, Zhao Banxian, the hexagram teller in our village, is really capable, and seeing a doctor is still secondary, and the most admirable thing is that he is very accurate in calculating hexagrams." ”
When Song Yun'er heard this, she immediately became interested and asked, "Hey! What kind of Zhao Banxian are you talking about, is the fortune telling really so accurate? ”
This girl is fascinated by fortune telling, fortune telling, horoscopes, and fortunes, both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign.
Mi Li Zheng said: "Of course, many people in Sili and Eight Villages have come to him to tell the hexagram, and he is nicknamed Zhao Banxian." After a pause, he said, "This Zhao Banxian is not only accurate in calculating hexagrams, but also able to catch ghosts and cure diseases and eliminate evil, and the Taoism is powerful." ”
"By the way, a few days ago, I heard that Old Master Lu's concubine Shen accompanied Old Master Lu to find Zhao Banxian to tell the hexagram, and Zhao Banxian said that Old Master Lu had a catastrophe this year, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. Although it was solved at that time, Zhao Banxian also said that this catastrophe may not be solved, and sure enough, this Zhao Banxian is really good at divination. ”
Yang Qiuchi remembered, late last night they just went to Beishao Village to find Mi Lizheng and told him that when Lu Xueru died, here was once talking to himself: "It's really spiritual", when Yang Qiuchi heard this inexplicable sentence, he didn't listen to it, and he was anxious to find Lu Xue's Confucian to inquire, so he didn't care, it turned out that he was referring to the fortune teller of Zhao Banxian who told the fortune.
Yang Qiuchi asked, "How do you know that the Shen family took Lu Xueru to find Zhao Banxian to tell fortunes?" ”
"Zhao Banxian said, he sighed when he met people, saying that Old Master Lu had a catastrophe this year, it was very dangerous, I am afraid that even he could not solve it, I want all of us to pay more attention to Old Master Lu, and if there is any problem, we must tell him as soon as possible, so that we can deal with it in time."
Yang Qiuchi sighed, lowered his head and groaned for a long time, then suddenly turned around and returned to Lu Xueru's house.
Song Yun'er, Hu Jiang, and Mi Lizheng didn't know what Yang Qiuchi was doing, so they also followed.
The little concubine Shen thought they were gone, and was humming a little song in her boudoir to dress up. Seeing Yang Qiuchi come in, he was a little embarrassed, raised his sleeves and began to wipe his tears again.
Yang Qiuchi was a little amused and asked this Shen family: "You took your master to find Zhao Banxian in the village to calculate the hexagram, right?" ”
The concubine Shen glanced at Yang Qiuchi, slowly lowered her sleeves, her eyes were red, but there was still not a single tear, and she said sadly: "Yes, I was originally going to calculate for the master, this time to open the Enke exam, can the master be in high school, but I didn't expect that as soon as we met, Zhao Banxian would see that our lord had a catastrophe this year." Woo woo, I didn't expect it to be accurate for Zhao Banxian, woo woo, how can I live in the future, woo woo woo. He burst into tears.
Yang Qiuchi waited for her whistle to be almost finished before asking, "But I heard Mi Li Zheng say, didn't Zhao Banxian solve this calamity for your master?" How is it useless? ”
"The solution is the solution, but Zhao Banxian said that our master's catastrophe this time is too great, if it really can't get over, it is also the will of God. Woo woo woo," the concubine Shen said with a sob.
"How did this Zhao Banxian solve this calamity for your master?"
"Set up the altar to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits."
Song Yun'er's eyes lit up, and she interjected curiously: "This Zhao Banxian will also catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits?" Is his Dao art really that powerful? ”
Mi Li next to him heard this, and also interjected: "Of course, our Zhao Banxian in Beishao Village is not only accurate in calculating hexagrams, but it is also a must to ask God to catch ghosts, there is nothing in Sili and Eight Villages that I don't know, just take this ghost to cure evil, I have seen it more than once, Zhao Banxian recited a spell to tie the ghost on the patient's body on a piece of paper on the altar, and with a spray of fairy water in his mouth, those ghosts suddenly showed their original form, and their heads and bodies were separated, and they were bloody. ”
Song Yun'er listened with relish and asked, "Really?" ”
Mi Zheng became even more energetic: "Of course, I also saw Zhao Banxian fry the ghost with boiling oil." ”
"Fried ghosts?" Song Yun'er asked in surprise.
"Yes, first boil a pot of oil, Zhao Banxian put his hand into the pot to test the oil temperature, see if the oil is boiling, can it blow up the ghost - that's a pot of boiling green oil, his hand into the oil pot but nothing happened, do you think he's amazing?"
Miri was blowing at the mouth, and there was such a figure in his village, who felt that his face was very radiant when he said it, and continued excitedly: "After trying the oil temperature, Zhao Banxian cast a spell to catch the evil ghost on the patient's body, used a spell to imprison the ghost on a bone, and then threw the bone into the oil pot to fry. The imp in the bones screamed, rolled up and down, and was finally blown up and killed. The patient's illness was cured immediately. Are you gods or not? ”
Yang Qiuchi interjected: "It's really a god." He smiled and asked, "This Zhao Banxian will cure the disease?" ”
"Of course, catching ghosts and curing diseases, Zhao Banxian can do anything, if it is a small problem, use his home remedies, and the big disease needs to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits."
Yang Qiuchi thought for a while and said: "My tooth often hurts, and it doesn't smell good to eat anything when it hurts, and I can't sleep anymore, I always have nightmares, you take me to find this Zhao Banxian to see, okay?" ”
"Okay!" Miri said happily, "I'll take you there." ”
Yang Qiuchi said to the little concubine Shen: "You can also go with us, and look at the excitement." ”
Shen was about to refuse, but seeing Yang Qiuchi's cold expression, he didn't dare to refuse, nodded, and followed them out of the door.
The group was led by Mi Li Zheng and came to Zhao Banxian's house at the entrance of the village.
This Zhao Banxian seems to be relatively rich in the village, with several large houses with brick and tile structures, and a plaque is hung on the forehead in the middle of the gate, which reads "Half Immortal Descends to Earth" with four gilded characters.
There is an old mother surnamed Sun who is responsible for greeting and sending off guests. Hearing that the uncles in the yamen of Yingtianfu came to Zhao Banxian to exorcise evil spirits and see a doctor, Old Mother Sun was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and introduced Yang Qiuchi and others into the house, and then ran outside to say it, the village was a sensation, and many people gathered around to see the excitement.
This Zhao Banxian was fifty miles away, one eye was squinted, but the other eye was already blind. Hearing that it was the lord of Ying Tianfu who came, Zhao Banxian stood up and made a gesture: "See all the masters, I, Zhao Blind, am here to give you a salute." "Lead a few people to the living room and sit down.
Yang Qiuchi arched his hand and said: "Zhao Banxian, in Xia and Yingtianfu Yamen Tong sentenced Lord Hu Jianghu, came to your village to be killed in the Gongyuan of the old master of Chalu, I heard that Mr. is strong in magic, and he happened to be slightly ill in the next occasion, so I want to ask Mr. to take a look." ”
When this Zhao Banxian heard that Old Master Lu had been killed, he sighed: "Alas~! It's really jealous of the talent, this old master is the most learned person in our village, alas~! It's a sigh~! I didn't have enough mana to save him. With that, he shook his head again.
Rimi was echoing and sighed: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, you can always calculate that he has such a catastrophe, this is enough to prove that you are indeed boundless in mana, besides, you are leaking the heavenly opportunity, and it is already a great kindness to this old master Lu." ”
The onlookers in the courtyard outside the gate also nodded in admiration.
Zhao Banxian sighed and waved his hand, listening to the admiring admiration of the villagers at the door, but the corners of his mouth showed a smug smile. After a while, he blinked the only hazy teary eye that was the only remaining fruit, and asked Yang Qiuchi: "Dare to ask this uncle, where is it uncomfortable?" ”
