"Excuse me, is Tao Yong Tao Jingsheng at home?"

The next day, when it was sunny and the sun was shining, Shi Min wore civilian clothes, as well as Chen Changsheng and Hua Mulan who had changed their disguises and went out. Shi Min dressed as a gentleman's son, and looked personable, which made Rao's first impression very good.

Shi Min was not the first time he returned here, but at this time, it was no longer the young servant who received him from the previous time, but a fresh face, the same servant who was no more than a weak crown year.

This is the outskirts of Yecheng East, most of the people who live here are refugees and poor people, but this courtyard is quite large, covering an area of more than ten hectares, with simple and low-key decoration, which is not inconspicuous at all.

"Yes. Who are you? ”

"You go and report to Tao Yong, it's good for Brother Min to see you."

"Please wait a moment, please be polite."

Then the servant hurried inside. Shi Min was not in a hurry, and he didn't blame the servant for not opening his eyes, so he didn't invite himself to sit in and make a cup of tea or something.

Hua Mulan's curiosity was very strong, and when she saw this situation, she couldn't help asking, "Childe, who is this Tao Yong?" Worth a visit? ”

Shi Min is now the general of Zhao State, the Duke of Wei, and also opened the palace with the three divisions, which can be described as a high authority, a position and a minister, with his power, what do you want to see, you can let people do it for you, why bother to run by yourself?

Of course, if Shi Min personally visited dignitaries such as Li Nong, Pu Hong, Yao Yizhong, Shi Jian, etc., in order to show respect, it would be nothing, but now he is running to the slums in the suburbs, are there nobles here?

Could it be that there is a rare genius who lives in seclusion here?

Hidden in the city, hidden in the forest, this is not allowed.

Shi Min didn't mean to hide it, pursed his lips and smiled: "I have a request." Tao Yong is an alchemist, and I came to him to ask for a 'panacea'. ”

When Mulan heard this, she shook her head in confusion and said, "It's the first time I've seen it, how can an alchemist live in such a place." ”

Alchemist is a revered profession, and without any ability, he cannot be called an alchemist. Now, although the imperial court respects Buddhism, the influence of native Taoism is still there, and this elixir is a microcosm of it.

The elixir refined in the hands of the alchemist is not immortal and immortal, and it is not invaded by a hundred poisons, but it can also prolong life and enhance physical fitness.

After a while, Shi Min and the others were invited in.

Shi Min walked into a spacious, bright and simple room, the furnishings were very simple, just a boxy low table, four futons, making tatami mats, and there was a screen in the window!

Although the Hu chair has been introduced to the Central Plains, the local Han people still like to kneel and sit cross-legged, which is already a tradition.

Tao Yong was already waiting for him there, and he made a pot of hot tea.

Tao Yong is a middle-aged man who looks like he is in his thirties, with a mediocre appearance, long hair, a ruddy face, and a little fat body, which is inconspicuous in the crowd.

It seems like this, but Shi Min knows that Tao Yong's age is not, at least more than half a hundred years old.

Tao Yong glanced at Chen Changsheng and Hua Mulan, who were following Shi Min, with strange eyes, Shi Min knew what he meant, so he waved his hand and motioned for the two to go out.

When Chen Changsheng and Hua Mulan left and went to stand guard outside the house, Shi Min sat down.

"Old poison, long time no see."

Shi Min doesn't seem to have much respect for Tao Yong, and the two are very familiar, otherwise he wouldn't be able to call Tao Yong "old poison" instead of "sir".

"Hehe, I haven't seen you in over a year." Tao Yong's voice was a little hoarse and low, but he could still hear it in general.

Tao Yong smiled and said, "Okay, Thorn Slave, what kind of pill do you want here?" ”

Thorn slave is Shi Min's name, and Tao Yong can call him so, which shows that their relationship is extraordinary.

In fact, as far as Shi Min knows, Tao Yong is a poor man with a miserable background, similar to ordinary people in troubled times, that year the eldest son of the party had a drought, starvation everywhere, and happened to meet the rebels, Tao Yong's father was starved to death, and his mother was taken away by the Xianbei people, and he didn't know where to go, and it was estimated that he was dead.

Tao Yong became an orphan, living alone, and then he joined the beggar army, and also became a member of Shi Min's grandfather Ran Long, where he worshipped an old Taoist priest as a teacher, but Tao Yong learned some crooked ways.

Tao Yong hated the Hu people very much, so after Shi Min's father Shi Zhan joined Zhao, he broke away from the Han army and lived in seclusion here, but his contact with Shi Min's family was never broken.

Tao Yong's alchemy, in addition to prolonging life, the effect of rejuvenating the face and poisoning, is more about refining all kinds of strange poisons, Shi Min at that time in order to control the high-level of the dark department, he also asked Tao Yong for poison.

In extraordinary times, use extraordinary means!

Shi Min is suspicious by nature, he can't trust anyone, and he completely trusts anyone, such as the dark department he founded, which includes secret guards, deaf and dumb, and a large number of intelligence officers.

So for the sake of safety, Shi Min adopted the families of some important people in the dark as hostages, but this is far from enough, after all, there are also some guys who have lost their humanity and don't care about the life and death of their relatives.

Therefore, Shi Min asked Tao Yong for a poison, if he couldn't get the antidote on time, the pain would be unbearable, and he eventually died violently.

Shi Min bowed his head and said, "Old poison, I still want poison." A chronic poison that can kill people invisibly, making people die of poisoning without realizing it. ”

"I have this poison. You wait here, I'll go get the medicine. ”

Shi Min sat for a while, drinking tea there, and Tao Yong came over with a delicate bottle.

"This is the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill, there are three in the bottle, take it in three times, once a month, it is best not to interrupt."

"What happens if it's interrupted?"

"People can die even if they are interrupted, but the date of death is unknown. I once experimented on three servants, I asked one of them to take a three-corpse brain elixir, and he died half a year later, and the other took two, and the one who didn't take it in the third month also died after four months. The last one, taking a three-corpse brain god pill every month, is the only way to die. ”

"It doesn't show signs of poisoning, does it?"

"Don't worry about this." Tao Yong swore solemnly, "A person who dies after taking the Three Corpses Brain Divine Pill is like a normal death, and the doctor cannot find out the cause of his death, and in the end he can only blame it on a sudden illness." ”

"That's good."

Tao Yong wouldn't ask Shi Min what bad things he was doing with this chronic poison. Just like Shi Min never asked why the servants he saw were all fresh faces every time he came.

This Tao Yong is not a good stubble!

"How much does it cost?"

"One piece, one thousand taels of silver."

"I'm an old poison, you're going too far, aren't you? Why don't you grab a thousand taels of silver? Shi Min was quite dissatisfied, after greedy for Shi Xuan's inheritance, Shi Min can be said to be wealthy, but this does not mean that he can spend extravagantly!

Tao Yong sneered and said, "Thorn slave, don't be able to afford this amount of money with me!" It's not easy for me, how much time, how much money, how much effort, and how many places did I go to refine it in order to find the materials for refining the elixir? No, I don't have much of these three corpse brain pills, just this one, no other semicolon! If you don't want it, give it back to me." ”

Then, Tao Yong was about to reach out and grab it.

Shi Min hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Haha! Just kidding. Old poison, three thousand taels is three thousand taels. ”

When she went out, Mulan unintentionally stepped on something, and when she looked down, it turned out to be a bone!

"This ...... This is? ”

It's not like an animal's bones!

Shi Min shook his head with a wry smile and said, "This old poison is too inattentive. Mulan, do you know why Tao Yong moved to this kind of place for alchemy? ”

"Childe, what do you mean ......"

"Not bad."

Shi Min nodded, nothing more.

Tao Yong's elixir has always been priceless, and when it is ordinary, you just want to find him, but you are afraid that Tao Yong, whose whereabouts are erratic, is not so easy to find, because Tao Yong is more often traveling, looking for materials for refining elixir.

And the pills refined by Tao Yong are all expensive to die, he can obviously use this to live in a mansion in Yecheng, with a group of beautiful wives and concubines, and hundreds of servants, these are not a thing, but he just lives here, what is the reason?

It's because this slum is too chaotic, it's a mixed bag, and it belongs to a place that Wei Yin doesn't want to manage!

Isn't it normal to disappear a few people here?

Shi Min came to visit, why were all the servants who received him with fresh faces?

Because the previous servants were all taken by Tao Yong to test the medicine!

Shi Min stepped on the soles of their feet, and it is estimated that they are their bones!
