The Tomb of the Yellow Skin Chapter 40 Shougong Sand (II)
Then the fat man also went into the cabinet to help me, and the two of us slowly moved out the big bottle I found like a bomb, and the fat man asked me what it contained. Dead person?
I said that it is not a dead person, there are no dead people in this cabinet, and the jar is only guarding the palace, the big palace, and it may be able to solve Ding Sitian's oyster poison, the fat man said: "Old Hu, don't come nonsense, why haven't I heard that the big palace can detoxify?" I don't even know what the palace is, we are all cultivated by our parents and the party, and we have grown up under the red flag bathed in the spring breeze and rain of ** thoughts, how can you know more than me? I have to ask why? ”
I was anxious, but in order to maintain my calm posture in the eyes of the masses without blinking before Mount Tai collapsed, I was still busy finding the seal of the bottle with the Kangxi treasure knife, and I took the time to say to the fat man: "Why do I know more than you?" Because I have established lofty ambitions since I was a child, and focused on cultivating my own will and quality, and constantly absorbing and learning useful knowledge in all aspects, so that I can become an excellent commander of our army in the third world war that liberates all mankind in the future. In addition, as a comrade-in-arms of the Red Guards who fought side by side with you, we have almost the same growth environment, we have all experienced three years of natural disasters since childhood, grew up eating the socialist canteen, and no one has bathed in the spring breeze and rain more than anyone else, why do you grow so fat and I grow so thin? I have to ask, why is that? ”
The fat man's eloquence level has always been inferior to me, and I was asked again to open my mouth, I said to him non-stop, but it was because I had no bottom in my heart, it was a nervous and restless table, and I opened the round glass container while talking, endured the pungent taste, and probed into the bottle with a long knife, and really picked out a big Shougong. Even the tail is almost more than a meter long.
What is Shougong? In fact, guarding the palace is a gecko, the so-called guarding the palace is the meaning of guarding the inner garden of the palace, the emperor at least said that there are three palaces and six courtyards, and more said that there are three thousand beauties in the harem, these women are prepared for the emperor alone, others can not touch, in order to prevent the occurrence of ** things in the palace, the internal supervision will choose a small dark cyan gecko. Packed in the green tile jar and raised in a thick shade place, every day there is a special person to feed these little geckos cinnabar for food, raised to three years of head, the gecko in the green tile jar can be born to seven or eight pounds of weight, that body size is quite not small.
Just like the pig is selected when slaughtering a pig, once a gecko grows enough and weighs seven or eight pounds, it is caught and wrapped in mulberry bark, placed on the yin tile to dry, and then crushed into medicine. The point is on the arm of the woman who has just entered the palace. From then on, there is a red spot like blood on the arm, which is called Shougong Sand, if the virgin is broken. Shougong sand will disappear, otherwise he will not retreat for life, the emperor will use guò this method to restrain his women, once it is found that there is no woman who has not been fortunate to have no palace sand on her arm, it is the crime of bullying the king, and cuckolding the emperor is the sin of the nine clans.
Because the giant gecko has this unique role, it is also called Shougong, and this name is said to have been given by the emperor, and it is a golden mouth. So in ancient times, geckos were called Shougong, it is said that this name belongs to the four olds, should be abolished in the ranks, but when I saw this gecko land, all I thought about was one thing when I was a child, in my grandfather's mouth, it has always been called Shougong.
It is said that boys are seven or eight years old, and they are suspected by thousands of people, and the monkey's butt has to stretch out his hand. But when I was twelve or thirteen years old, I didn't know how to be an obedient good boy, and I was out of the circle, there was a barren grave behind our military region, and there was a bluestone wrench in the depths of the grass, and the locals said that the bluestone slab was the coffin lid, and whoever sat on it would be injured by the zombie yin qi inside.
I heard that I was going to scout and scout in the future, and I took a few children to skid the bluestone slab with an iron rod, the slate was not a coffin lid, but a natural bluestone, and the other side was full of green moss, I was feeling tasteless, but there was a big scorpion hidden under the slate, and I bit my ring finger, and the wound was black, swollen two or three times, and my arms began to be numb, and I really thought I was going to die heroically, and quickly ran home.
It happened that my parents were on a business trip, my grandfather sent me to the health station, the doctor was also two knives, and I was going to amputate my fingers as soon as I checked it, my grandfather Hu Guohua did not agree at that time, he had his own local methods, in the old society he was Mr. Yin and Yang Feng Shui, and knew many folk secret recipes.
It happened that someone caught a live big palace guard, he was about to come over, the palm of the palace guard is not carefully looked at the same as a human hand, there is a bright red small pimple in the fingers, with a needle to pick out the small red meat spot of the palace guard's fingers, and poured water into me, not half a day, the swelling on the hand is clear.
Later, I asked him what this thing was, and my grandfather told me a lot of stories about the palace, and I knew a lot about some old anecdotes, almost all of which were told by him at that time, the red pill between the fingers of the palace guard, called navel red incense, gram five poisons, antidote to hundred poisons, if there is a can of navel red incense hanging in the house, the whole house will not be infested with mosquitoes, snakes and ants, but how much does it take to form the big palace, not ordinary people can afford it.
I can't think of the previous experience, this time came in handy, because only the umbilical red incense of the forelimbs can be used, and there are a total of eight umbilical red incense between the fingers of the formed Dashougong, which is the magic medicine for all kinds of poisons, and I remember that my grandfather didn't use any superfluous things back then, and there was no need to pay attention to the help of the monarch and ministers like traditional Chinese medicine, the only thing to worry about is that this so-called antidote to a hundred poisons, including the poison of the brocade scale oyster, can be used for medical treatment when there is a disease, and there is a life-saving straw, which is better than watching Ding Sitian die like this.
I was ruthless, I decided to give it a try, poisoned Ding Sitian and I went to pay for her life, I was really crazy at the time, the fat man and I completely forgot that the two of us may also have been poisoned by the corpse ginseng, and completely left this matter behind, I explained this set of principles to the fat man simply, although the fat man did not understand it halfway, but out of the great trust between his comrades, he also agreed.
We dragged the corpse of the Great Shougong to the ground, washed the liquid with water in the kettle, and fixed it by the fat man holding the forepalm of the Shougong, I used the tip of the long knife to pick out eight small red lumps, and looked at it in the palm of my hand, bright red, whether I could save Ding Sitian was all counting on it.
