Chapter 218: Not to Blame for the Past?
"That's what you said." Gu Langzhong's eyes rolled, and he immediately thought of the question of Song Lingyue, "Do you know 'Thousand Days Drunk'?" ”
"A thousand days drunk? Are you talking about the poison made by the monk's accident? I heard that the thousand days of drunkenness can only take effect when it is in wine, and when the poison attacks, the poisoned person is like drunk, the face is crimson, and the posture is gorgeous, but he will not wake up for a long time, and after seven days, the whole body will rot and die in his sleep. ”
This thousand days of drunkenness, Song Lingyue has also seen it in "Asking Medicine" before, and it is said that it is the same as "worry-free", and it is listed as a strange poison in the world.
"That's right, it's a thousand days of drunkenness, I didn't expect you to dabble in it." Gu Langzhong pinched his beard, and a flash of surprise flashed in his long narrow eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"I just read a few more books." Song Lingyue was very modest, "So, Gu Langzhong, do you want me to unravel the poison of a thousand days of drunkenness?" ”
Gu Langzhong smiled slightly and said, "Can you untie it?" A hundred years ago, after the monk left this poison called 'Thousand Days Drunk', there have been countless healers who have been eager to unravel this poison for hundreds of years. ”
"If you don't try it, how do you know you can't solve it." Song Lingyue is quite confident, "However, if you want to solve the 'Thousand Days Drunk', you also need to have a prescription for 'Thousand Days Drunk', without a prescription, everything is in vain." Since Gu Langzhong made this request, he must have the formula of 'Thousand Days Drunk' in his hand. ”
"It's smart." Gu Langzhong took out a purse from his bosom and took out a very old and yellowed page from it.
Song Lingyue took a closer look, the worn-out paper should have been torn off the page, just by looking at the page, she knew that the book should be quite thoughtful, the pages were yellowed, and there were traces of being eaten by bookworms.
"This is the recipe for 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', which is very precious, don't lose it." Lieutenant Gu Lang handed the pages in his hand to Song Lingyue.
The page was well preserved, but it had been so old that much of the handwriting on it had become blurry and illegible.
Song Lingyue finished identifying it with difficulty, "This last line of words is illegible, it seems that a part is missing, the prescription is incomplete, and it seems to be a little difficult to crack it." ”
Gu Langzhong showed an expression of 'you can take advantage', and said:
"If it is so easy to crack, there will not be so many doctors who have tirelessly wanted to challenge the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' in a hundred years, and the formula list I gave you is already the most complete one circulating on the market."
"In other words, if you want to crack the Thousand Days Drunk, you must first make a Thousand Days Drunk." Song Lingyue is very good at drawing inferences.
"These are your things, I just need a result." Gu Langzhong twisted his beard, and his ink eyes fell on Song Lingyue's face, "How about it, do you dare to challenge it?" If you can really unravel the poison of 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', I will not be guilty of what you used my name to disguise in the past. ”
"Blame for the past?" Song Lingyue sneered, "You have a request for me, but you want to deliberately act like you are superior, admitting that a woman's medical skills are better than you, is it so difficult?" ”
As soon as Song Lingyue's words fell, Gu Langzhong's face suddenly darkened, the corners of his eyes drooped, and he said sharply:
"What nonsense are you talking about! How can I not even be as good as your yellow-haired girl's medical skills! And say I have a request for you? When I asked you, I don't know. ”
Song Lingyue took the prescription of 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' in her hand and shook it a few times:
"I think the reason why you brought it up for me to crack this 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' is not just to make it difficult for me, right?
"I guess that someone close to you planted this poison, but you can't solve it, and you'd rather die of incense, so this 'thousand days of drunkenness' has become a hurdle in your heart.
"You see that I solved the poison of the aconitum grass so quickly, and the detoxification method used is completely different from yours, do you guess that maybe I can have another way to crack the poison of this 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', yes or no?"
Song Lingyue was aggressive and approached Gu Langzhong.
Gu Langzhong retreated again and again under her forced gaze, and finally lost the battle.
"What you said is right, I do have people close to me who have been poisoned by 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', but I am helpless, I can only watch her die." Gu Langzhong talked about the past, and obvious vicissitudes appeared on his already old face.
At that moment, Gu Langzhong seemed to be more than ten years old, looking very haggard, even paler than when he was poisoned before.
"It seems that that person should be very important to you, otherwise you wouldn't have hidden this prescription in your arms so preciously." Song Lingyue was a little moved, "I will find a way to crack the poison of 'Thousand Days Drunk'." ”
"Thank you." The corners of Gu Langzhong's lips squirmed a little, and it took a while to spit out the word.
Song Lingyue just smiled and said coldly: "I helped you unravel the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' not for your thanks, but I want to unravel it, of course, I also want you to know that as long as women want to do something, they will definitely be able to do it, and women are never weaker than men, so please put away your prejudices and traditions." ”
Song Lingyue dropped this sentence, and regardless of the expression on Gu Langzhong's face behind her, she hurriedly went out with the prescription of 'Thousand Machine Changes'.
Song Lingyue grabbed all the medicinal materials she already knew according to the prescriptions written on the page: "Rehmannia Rehmannia, Chuanqiong, Schisandra Changshan, Light Powder...... It seems that this 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' is really not as simple as I thought. ”
Song Lingyue whispered to herself, and Qi Mo on the side leaned over to take a look, and glanced down at the prescription spread out on the table: "Isn't this the prescription for the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' of the monk of the machine?" How can you have such a thing. ”
Song Lingyue raised her head, grabbed Qi Mo's wrist excitedly, and said eagerly: "You even know about 'Thousand Days of Drunkness'?" Tell me what else you know. ”
Qi Mo's gaze fell on the wrist that Song Lingyue was grabbing him, and quickly looked away again, touched his nose, and said:
"What's so strange about knowing 'Thousand Days Drunk', anyone in the Great Xia Kingdom who reads will know it, I wonder why you have a prescription for 'Thousand Days Drunk'!"
This machine change monk is a famous monk in Daxia, often open the altar to preach, is also a master of the apricot forest, and the book "Eighteen Treatises on Zen" came out, which is exquisite in Zen language, and is one of the must-read books for many private schools.
And this "Eighteen Treatises on Zen Language" was written by the monk after studying the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', and after writing this book, the monk disappeared.
Some people say that the monk has traveled all over the world, some say that the monk has become an immortal, and some say that the monk has passed away...... There are different opinions, and no one has a definite statement until now, which has become a big mystery.
"The Eighteen Treatises on Zen? You say that the monk of the machine change wrote this sutra after researching the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness'? So where can you buy this scripture? ”
For some reason, Song Lingyue always felt that the scripture of 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' had an inextricable connection.
"As long as it's a bookstore, you can buy it!" Qi Mo tilted his head and said slowly, "I remember that I seem to have one there, I can lend it to you." ”
"That's great!" Song Lingyue frowned, and her face showed a touch of joy.
Half an hour later.
"There is nothing unusual in this "Eighteen Treatises on Zen Language"!" Song Lingyue has already flipped through the "Eighteen Treatises on Zen Language", which talks about eighteen Zen sayings, and then writes some personal opinions that are nothing special.
"Otherwise, what do you think will be in there?" Qi Mo looked at Song Lingyue amusedly.
"I thought he wrote the "Eighteen Treatises on Zen Language" after he studied the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', maybe there will be content about 'Thousand Machine Changes' in this number." Song Lingyue threw the book aside in disappointment and lay on the table depressedly, unable to lift her spirits for a long time.
Qi Mo smiled: "There are countless people who have this kind of thought like you, but no one has found any useful information from the "Eighteen Treatises on Zen Language". ”
"Does anyone else think that the Eighteen Treatises on Zen are suspicious?" Song Lingyue flipped through the pages of the book, almost sweeping the pages at a glance.
Qi Mo said lightly: "That machine change monk left a very strange sentence before he disappeared, and everyone associated that sentence with the "Eighteen Treatises on Zen", but so many people turned over the "Eighteen Treatises on Zen" and didn't find any connection. ”
Song Lingyue became interested and hurriedly asked, "Even if the monk has always said something?" ”
"It's a Zen saying." Qi Mo replied, and made a law decision in his hand at random: "Everything is void, you can't say it." ”
Song Lingyue said blankly, "Didn't you say that you left a Zen saying?" I can't say why. ”
"That Zen saying is, 'Everything is empty, don't say it'!" Qi Mo looked like he had been defeated by Song Lingyue.
"There's no difference between that and not saying it." Song Lingyue was deflated, "How did those people think of 'a thousand days drunk' from this sentence?" These two have nothing to do with each other, huh? ”
Qi Mo spread his hands helplessly and said, "It's also spread out randomly, what kind of void is illusory, isn't everything empty when you're drunk?" ”
Song Lingyue sneered and laughed, "These people are quite good at association." ”
"Looks like I can't help you this time." Qi Mo showed a helpless expression.
"You've already helped me, I didn't know it was interesting without you." Song Lingyue covered her lips and smiled, her eyes were like a crescent moon, and there was a shallow spring with rippling light.
For three days in a row, Song Lingyue had not found a clue, and the task of cracking the 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness' was temporarily suspended.
Gu Langzhong took advantage of this time to cultivate well, and after drinking the medicine prescribed by Song Lingyue for three days in a row, most of the residual poison in his body had been removed, and his face gradually recovered a lot.
In addition, in the past few days, Aunt Li has changed her tricks to increase the nutrition of Gu Langzhong, either stewing bone broth or making crucian carp soup, and she is simply serving him as a confinement mother, and her originally thin face has begun to show signs of plumpness in the past few days.
Gu Langzhong's injury was healed, but he didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, Song Lingyue issued an eviction order, but was refuted by Gu Langzhong's eloquent words: Before Song Lingyue unlocked the poison of 'Thousand Days of Drunkenness', he would never leave here, and asked Song Lingyue to keep his promise.
