Chapter 243: Haunted
The next day, Yao Yuan and two imperial doctors came to check the pulse of Dai Wang and made sure that his body was stable, so he took Ying Bao back to the imperial pharmacy and took out the medicinal materials for her to prepare.
This time, Yao Yuan is strongly asking to watch from the sidelines.
Yingbao also followed him, commanding several medicine boys to grind medicine and boil medicine.
When it is almost boiled, quietly pour a little Wudingzhi into it, stir it into a thick paste, put it up to cool, let them knead it into pills, and wrap it in wax paper.
On the other side, there is a medicine boy making wax shells, that is, hanging wax skins.
First use a pot to heat and melt the wax, when the wax oil drops to the blanch, dip the wooden balls fixed on the iron sticks into the pot and dip the wax, and then take out the wooden balls and put them in cold water to solidify.
After several dips in wax and cooling, the wax skin reaches a certain thickness.
After that, use a knife to cut most of the wax skin on the outside of the wooden ball, take out the wooden ball, put the pill wrapped in wax paper into the wax shell, and then hang the wax seal, and iron the wax stalk.
Finally, the horn stamp is hot, dipped in red mud, and the name of the medicine is stamped on the sealed place.
Ying Bao was very interested in the tools for making wax shells, so he asked Yao Yuan to take a set away.
If you want to make pills for sale in the future, you must wrap each ball with a shell and stamp it with your own seal, which is atmospheric.
Yao Yuanzheng was not stingy, and readily agreed to send her a set of wax leather tools, and also gave her a few manuscripts of the palace medicinal diet.
Sakura reciprocated the favor and gave him a small bottle of self-made pills.
The amount of Wuding Zhi in these pills is much more than that in the pills made on the spot.
Returning from the Imperial Pharmacy, Sakura found that Xiao Chengjun did not live in the same place, but moved next door to her, next to her.
Chang Xiu brought the hedgehog back from the orchard and returned it to Sakura. "The slave listened to your orders, and usually tied the hedgehog to the grass on the other side of the fruit forest, and no one was seen."
"Thank you, Sister Chang Xiu." Sakura took the hedgehog, put it on the ground, and took out a few melon seeds for it to eat.
These melon seeds were given by the medicine boy of the imperial pharmacy, saying that they were marinated with salt and then fried, and they were very salty and fragrant.
Sakura Bao thought the melon seeds were too salty, and didn't dare to eat more, so she just used them to feed the hedgehog.
The hedgehog does not dislike it, and eats them one by one.
In the evening, Chang Xiu went to the imperial dining room to get food, and Yingbao sneaked out of the compartment and came to Xiao Chengjun's house.
At this time, Xiao Chengjun should go to the Qilin Hall to accompany the acting king, but there was no one in the house.
Sakura threw a handful of melon seeds under the bed, threw in another piece of stone honey, and pushed the little hedgehog forward.
Then he ran back to his room and sat on the Luohan couch. Wait for Chang Xiu to come back with the food box.
After eating dinner and washing, Yingbao let Chang Xiu sleep on the inside of the bed, she slept on the outside of the bed, closed her eyes and listened to the movement outside.
Xiao Chengjun came back after dinner at the acting king's place, and asked the chamberlain to check inside and out, and then lay down to rest.
He was so frightened that he slept until the dead of night when he heard someone coughing, and sent someone to look for him, but he couldn't find anything.
After that, every night he asked the chamberlain to stand outside the vigil, otherwise he would not dare to close his eyes.
For several days the chamberlains began to complain, and when they saw him, they avoided him for fear of being sent to keep vigil again.
Fortunately, he didn't hear any unusual noises these days, Xiao Chengjun gradually put his mind at ease, and there was no need for people to guard the door all night, but the lights had to be lit in the house.
Xiao Chengjun lay down and read a book for a while, and fell asleep in a daze.
Seeing that he was asleep, the palace people blew out a few lights, leaving only two, and then went outside to rest.
slept until midnight, Xiao Chengjun was suddenly awakened by a few coughs.
He frowned, and listened intently, this time it was terrible, the cough was not outside, but under his bed.
Xiao Chengjun screamed in fright, rolled over and jumped up from the bed, and ran out of the house barefoot. Shouted: "Someone! Come! β
Two chamberlains ran over with lanterns and hurriedly asked, "Xiao Langjun, what's going on?" β
"There's a ghost in thereΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Hurry up and check out Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·." Xiao Chengjun was so frightened that his teeth chattered, and his whole body trembled like chaff.
The two chamberlains looked at each other and did not dare to enter.
"Otherwise, Xiao Langjun, you go to the Qilin Hall first, let's find a few people to come and have a look." An attendant.
Xiao Chengjun nodded without hesitation, and ran towards the Qilin Hall with the help of an attendant.
The other chamberlain did not dare to stay, and was about to walk back with a lantern, when he saw a small head poking out of the next compartment, which startled him.
"Ouch, Xiaolang, you're scared to death for our family." Seeing that it was Yingbao, the chamberlain patted his chest: "You hurry back to the house, Xiao Langjun said that his house is haunted again." β
Sakura blinked and asked, "Why is it always haunted?" Is it because he has been in contact with someone recently, so that's why he is like this? β
The chamberlain hurriedly booed: "Xiao Langzhong can't talk nonsense, Xiao Langjun has been with the acting king recently." β
"The acting king is the grandson of the phoenix and the dragon, and now he is in good health, it is the time when the yang energy is at its peak, and it is good that Xiao Chengjun doesn't take him tired."
Ying Bao was kind and seductive: "Think about it again, who else has Xiao Chengjun been in contact with recently?" β
The waiter thought about it, patted his head, and said mysteriously: "Our family knows, Xiao Langjun has always been with the new palace maid recently, and our family also saw him take the little palace maid to the orchard to pick lychees." β
Sakura nodded: "That's right. Alas, go and get someone to come and see. β
The chamberlain nodded at Sakura Bao and quickly ran to the front to call someone.
Ying Bao turned his head to Chang Xiu, who had already gotten up, and said, "Sister Chang, you are guarding here, I'll go to Xiao Chengjun's house to take a look." β
Chang Xiu said with a worried face: "What is Xiao Langzhong going to do there, it's weird and scary, or else, slave... Slave with you. β
"No, no, I don't believe that there are ghosts in the world, it must be that Xiao Chengjun's brain is wrong, hey, he is suspicious all day long, maybe he has madness."
Ying Bao said as she ran to Xiao Chengjun's house: "Sister Chang, you wait here, I'm going to see if there are any ghosts inside." β
Chang Xiu wanted to follow, but she was more afraid of ghosts, so she was so anxious to circle in place.
Sakura ran into the house and saw that the lights and candles were still on.
It seems that Xiao Chengjun was frightened before, and now he even sleeps with the lamp in his hand.
Sakura quickly got into the bed and collapsed, grabbed the rope from the hedgehog's leg, and dragged it out.
ran out with a hedgehog and said to Chang Xiu: "There are no ghosts in his house at all, let's go, let's go back." β
Chang Xiu followed Yingbao back to the cubicle, sat on the couch and stared at the little doll to give the hedgehog water.
Sakura muttered, "What are you running around at night, what can you do if you are caught as a ghost." β
The hedgehog drank the water and curled up in a ball.
Chang Xiu couldn't help but ask: "Ying Bao, did this hedgehog scare Xiao Langjun?" β
"Shhh β
Chang Xiu nodded again and again: "The slave won't talk nonsense." β
Sakura Po was satisfied, covered the hedgehog basket with a piece of cloth, and climbed back to bed.
