Chapter 225: Learning Poison

Leng Nanxian didn't say a word, but he was obviously a little unsavory and absent-minded.

"Where are there any immortals in the world?" Qianzhou disdained to refute.

"It's true, we were eating fish by the lake in the other courtyard, and a gray-shirted Taoist priest came, who looked like a fairy and a bone, but when he spoke, he was not serious, which annoyed Yu Shizi, but in the blink of an eye, he disappeared. At that time, the surroundings were empty, and there was not even a place to hide, so where else could I go except to fly away? ”

"You're dazzled, aren't you?" Qianzhou will be suspicious.

"It's true, Yu Shizi's long sword was against him at that time, do you think, how many people in this world can dodge Yu Shizi's sword? Neither of us could see how he disappeared. ”

"You also believe in these strange things."

Leng Nanxian said indifferently: "It's just that he drugged the two of you, and you were in a trance for a while and lost consciousness." By the time they come to their senses, they are already far away. ”

An Sheng suddenly said: "That's right, but is there such a powerful medicine in this world?" ”

Qianzhou sneered lightly: "Rare and strange." ”

"But I didn't eat at the time, and I didn't know exactly when he was poisoned?" An Sheng asked suspiciously.

"Poisoning is not necessarily through food, but also through the air, and God does not know it." Leng Nanxian explained.

"So, I've met a poisoner? No wonder he actually knew the aroma of my thousand days of drunkenness, and besides, he also knew the current Qintian Prison. An Sheng was not annoyed at all, but a little excited.

Leng Nanxian raised his face, his eyes flashing: "But an old man who is not tall, thin, and energetic?" As soon as he spoke, his eyebrows flew and danced, and he seemed to be a little out of tune? ”

An Sheng nodded like pounding garlic: "Does Master know him?" ”

"I don't know." Leng Nanxian pursed his lips, and lowered his head again: "You eat quickly, and the teacher will teach you how to configure this medicinal powder for a while, which can be used for self-defense." ”

An Sheng couldn't help but be stunned: "Master doesn't object to me using poison?" ”

Leng Nanxian said angrily: "You always get into trouble everywhere, but you are still prepared." ”

An Sheng was suddenly overjoyed, put down the bowl in his hand, wiped his mouth, and said impatiently: "I've eaten it." ”

Leng Nanxian got up: "Come with me."

The two went directly to the backyard, next to the study, where An Sheng practiced acupuncture when he first came.

Leng Nanxian pushed open the closed door, and a strange smell of mixing came to his face, there was a fishy smell, a medicinal fragrance, and a pungent smell, mixed together, disgusting.

Leng Nanxian took a long-necked medicine bottle from the door and said to An Sheng, "Stretch out your hand." ”

Ansheng did what he said.

Leng Nanxian uncorked the bottle and poured a little cool liquid into An Sheng's palm, with a refreshing aroma.

"Rubbing it on your hands prevents poisonous insect bites." Leng Nanxian asked An Sheng again: "Do you need to cover your mouth and nose?" ”

An Sheng frowned slightly, but shook his head categorically: "No need." ”

Leng Nanxian took care of himself, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and covered his mouth and nose.

The two walked into the room, and An Sheng saw the scene in the room clearly. The original dolls have all been gathered in the corner of the room, and now there are rows of shelves stacked on the room, on which many clay pots, herbs, etc. are placed in an orderly manner.

An Sheng walked to the crockpot curiously, reached out to lift the lid on it, and asked curiously, "What's in here?" ”

Leng Nanxian hurriedly stopped it, and the lid on it had been opened by An Sheng, revealing the dense scorpions inside.

"It turned out to be a poisonous insect."

An Sheng muttered casually, and then went to lift the other lids, all of which were poisonous snakes, spiders, centipedes and other poisons, which made people feel cold all over their bodies at a glance.

Leng Nanxian stood far away, jealous, and carefully advised: "Stay away, these are all highly poisonous." ”

An Sheng smiled, turned around suddenly, and stretched out his hand to Leng Nanxian, and on his fingertips was a scorpion that was constantly struggling.

"There's a deserter here."

Leng Nanxian's face changed in fright, and he staggered back a few steps before he stood firmly, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Why did you grab it with your hands? How disgusting! ”

An Sheng's prank succeeded, and he leaned back with laughter: "It turns out that Master is not only afraid of poisonous snakes, but also afraid of scorpions. ”

Leng Nanxian still had palpitations on his face, and he was a few steps away from An Sheng, forcibly calming down to hide his panic.

"It's not a matter of being afraid or not, but I feel cold all over my body, like insects and ants."

An Sheng knows that Leng Nanxian is exquisite, and his diet and daily life can be simple on weekdays, but he must definitely be tidy, so he definitely doesn't like these reptiles. She was a little smug.

"Xue Shi didn't know where he heard before that scorpions and centipedes, these poisonous insects soaked in wine can cure Xia Zixian's vertigo, so he ordered my sister and I to catch them. My sister is timid, and every time I see it, I react like you, and I turn pale with fright.

I initially took the plunge with chopsticks. Over time, he was not afraid, and secretly cut off the poisonous needle on its tail, and then handed it over to the Xue family, which naturally had no use for Xia Zixian's illness. The Xue family no longer forced my sister and me to arrest him. ”

An Sheng said it lightly, Leng Nanxian listened to it in his heart, but he felt a little heavy.

"I thought that with your temper, you would sneak them into the Xue family's courtyard."

An Sheng smiled brightly: "I want to too, but my sister won't let me, for fear of hurting my father." ”

Leng Nanxian glanced at the scorpion in her hand that was constantly struggling, and frowned: "Hurry up and put it back, be careful of hurting you." ”

"As long as you pinch its tail, it can't do anything, and it doesn't have to be afraid at all." An Sheng turned around, obediently threw the scorpion into the crockpot, turned to look at Leng Nanxian, and said seriously: "Since Master doesn't like these poisonous insects, don't raise them." ”

Leng Nanxian coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment: "If you want to make a powerful poison, in addition to medicinal materials, you must also learn to use local materials, so that no matter where you are, you can take poison and make poison, and you have to raise it." ”

"Master has never been exposed to these poisons, so how can he know how to take them?"

Leng Nanxian pursed his lips and forcibly endured the discomfort: "At the beginning, your master was surrounded by these poisons, and he naturally knew it. He also forced me to come into contact with these things at that time, but I was never able to overcome this fear, and I almost failed the test of your master. ”

"Master is so powerful, even Master is not satisfied? If he had seen me, and had been so foolish, wouldn't he have to die alive? An Sheng said with a sad face.

Leng Nanxian slightly hooked the corners of his lips and smiled meaningfully: "Not necessarily." ”

An Sheng blinked his eyes and smiled: "My master and I can barely be regarded as like-minded, am I considered to have inherited the mantle of my master?" ”

Leng Nanxian bowed his head: "At the very least, it can be regarded as fulfilling your master's regret." He often said that he regretted taking me as an apprentice. ”

"Then why did Master want to study medicine in the first place?" An Sheng finally asked the doubts he had been thinking about all along.

Leng Nanxian's face darkened, his jade-like nose moved, and his thin lips pursed tighter.

An Sheng realized that he shouldn't be so reckless, and muttered helplessly: "I'm sorry, I ......"

Leng Nanxian shook his head slowly and smiled bitterly: "There is nothing that can't be said." When I was young, I was in a special situation, living with my mother in my hometown, not in the capital. She worked family affairs, became ill from hard work, contracted heart disease, and was helpless to ask famous doctors.

Later, I was fortunate enough to have your grandfather to see my mother. It's just a pity that my mother is terminally ill and has no way to recover. But your master still extended my mother's life span for three years with the silver needle in his hand, and let her accompany me to grow up and be sensible.

It was at that time that I had the idea of worshipping him to save the world, and naively thought that as long as I worked hard and was willing to learn, I might be able to save my mother's life. So every day, I cantilever and study hard, just like you did at that time. ”

There was bitterness in Leng Nanxian's words that was difficult to hide, and An Sheng listened to it in his heart, empathized, and was uncontrollably sad.

"I'm sorry Master, I shouldn't have talked too much."

Leng Nanxian suddenly raised her hand and rubbed the top of her head: "Silly girl, it's been so many years, what can't you mention?" ”

An Sheng raised his face and smiled very brightly at Leng Nanxian: "Master only likes to save people, not these poisons, then you only have to teach me the method of taking poison and making poison, and you don't have to practice it." Isn't that good? ”

Leng Nanxian couldn't ask for it, and he didn't want to be strong, so he nodded, relieved: "It's okay." ”

An Sheng returned to Xia Mansion in the evening, still receiving several posts from the porter.

casually flipped through and glanced at it, it was nothing more than which powerful son he was, how many products his father's official residence had, how rich his family was, and how he looked like a car, better than Pan An, full of boasting, except for a man who is indeed a genuine man, it is estimated that there is no truth, and he is very happy to see it.

An Sheng is not a lady who stays at home, she often walks between the markets, and the rich children she sees are mostly oily and powdery, born with crooked melons and cracked dates, and a man with the demeanor of the master has never been seen. These people even dared to say that the jade tree was in the wind and threw the fruit in the car.

If it's really a "matchmaker's mouth, Hu is tired", thanks to not letting them go to the Xue family to talk nonsense, otherwise what if the price is right and they sell themselves?

An Sheng looked at the posts in his hand with pity, they were all such good goods, if they could be sold, it was estimated that they could be sold for a lot of money, and they were casually stuffed into the cracks of the cabinet.

On the cabinet, there is a baggage.

An Sheng opened it in surprise, and inside was a peach-colored Luo skirt.

No need to ask, such a gaudy color must be Xue's vision.

Only when you dress up in red and willow green can you bring out the brightness of Xia Ziwu and the nobility of Xia Zixian.

Sure enough, there was no need for An Sheng to ask, the Dragon Boat Festival came in with hot water, and he told An Sheng angrily: "Today, Mrs. took the two young ladies out for a day, and there was a cart of large and small packages, all of which were silk and satin, fat and powder jewelry, but only this Luo skirt was given to the young lady." Say that the young lady has the head of the emperor's reward, and she will definitely not look down on their shabby jewelry. That's why I only bought you this Luo skirt, and it makes sense to say it. ”

An Sheng smiled indifferently, now that he has silver taels, what kind of things can't he buy? Who is rare about her Xue's almsgiving?

However, the Xue family had just cried in front of Xia Yuanwai, and he was buying on a large scale the next day, so there must be some scene to save face, right?

What are they going to do?
