Chapter 19: Elixir
Kong Fang was depressed.
Who is this? People are tall and big, but they have a glass heart! I don't know if the man has tears and doesn't flick? Lao Tzu is living well, do you need to cry and mourn?
He pulled out three green pills.
It was the pill he had made overnight last night, a thick soup made with fresh purslane and green tea, mixed with cooked flour, sprinkled with minced ginger, kneaded into a dough, and then kneaded into a pill the size of a quail egg.
He made a total of nine.
Three capsules at a time, three times a day. Of course, he didn't plan to give the pill to Lao Wang all at once.
Because what is too easy to get is often not cherished.
Lao Wang took the pill and looked at the green pill with a confused expression.
"Uncle, what is this?"
Kong Fang patted his head.
People in this era, if they are sick, they generally boil it, and it is luck when they are good; It's fate to hang up.
If you can afford to hire a doctor, you can drink medicinal soup.
Pills, I really haven't seen it.
"This is an elixir for your illness, if you eat it, you will be able to reduce the number of times you go to the toilet, and if you take it twice, your illness will be completely cured. Hurry up and eat. ”
Kong Fang thought that Lao Wang would be ecstatic, and he couldn't wait to stuff the pill in his mouth.
As a result, the scene he expected did not happen.
But seeing Lao Wang holding the pill, his face was full of confusion. In the Daxing Dynasty, except for the princes and nobles, only the rich could afford to get sick, and a minor illness in ordinary people could bring down a family.
As a subordinate like him, he doesn't dare to get sick, and he can't be cured when he is sick.
My uncle said that they were immortal medicines, and he didn't dare to eat them even more. After all, if it eats it, it can't vomit out, and even if it doesn't die of illness, it will be worried to death by the money for medicine and the cost of diagnosis.
"What's going on?"
"Don't believe me?"
Kong Fang was a little unhappy. Although Croton is under Lao Tzu, isn't it also Lao Tzu who governs you? You are a subordinate, why don't you believe in Lao Tzu?
Shameless to face, right?
Lao Wang was frightened and hurriedly explained: "Uncle, I believe in you. It's just this elixir, I'm ...... I don't have any money......"
"Whew!"
Kong Fang slapped the case, which frightened Lao Wang again, and the pill almost fell to the ground.
"Didn't I say it just now, you are a member of the Fang family, I am the uncle of the Fang family, we are a family, did I say that I would collect your money?"
Lao Wang's eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, and he looked at Kong Fang in a daze.
After a while, he covered his mouth again and cried bitterly, so angry that Kong Fang almost kicked him to death. After crying for a long time, Lao Wang put the pill into his mouth with tears in his eyes, sobbing and chewing.
A faint sour and spicy taste spreads in the mouth.
"Drink some water."
Kong Fang pushed a bowl of cold boiled water in front of him, and Lao Wang's tears welled up again, picked up the bowl to drink, and swallowed the chewed pill and water.
Kong Fang didn't know whether he underestimated the efficacy of the medicine or the immunity of the ancients, he didn't expect that the three copycat pills would actually solve the residual poison of croton in Lao Wang's body.
After taking the medicine, Lao Wang only went to the toilet once, and his stomach stopped raining, and his complexion, physical strength, and spirit gradually began to recover. After lunch, he was already alive and well, and his face was not sick.
Lao Wang hugged Kong Fang's thigh and was excited, if it weren't for his low background and high climbing, he would have recognized Kong Fang as his father.
Kong Fang was so frightened that he almost kicked him to death.
Who are these people?
Isn't it just to cure your diarrhea?
As for being so excited?
Croton is still under Lao Tzu! Would I like to let you know?
He didn't know that Lao Wang's behavior was too radical because he didn't understand the national conditions of the Daxing Dynasty.
In the Daxing Dynasty, dysentery was almost a terminal disease, and the patient was tortured, and his death was extremely miserable, almost like a dried corpse, and there was a foul smell. Even the princes, nobles, and wealthy families are talking about it.
He was lucky to get his life back!
Kong Fang is his reborn parents, can he not be moved, not excited?
It's impossible for my uncle to be my godfather.
But he can be his most respected master, and he can be his most loyal subordinate!
Lao Wang secretly swore that he would work harder and more exquisitely.
The end of work in the afternoon has arrived, he didn't leave but asked Kong Fang to let him continue to work, the room is Fang Shibo's, Lao Wang doesn't want to rest and wants to work all night, Fang Shibo still has to rest.
So Kong Fang refused.
But Lao Wang didn't give up, he stalked him, Kong Fang was helpless, and found a vacant room for him. Lao Wang was overjoyed, holding the lenses and polishing tools, and went to the fart.
"Phew,!"
Looking at Lao Wang's back, Kong Fang sighed lightly.
"Brother-in-law, did Taishang Laojun give you medicine?"
As soon as he returned to his room, Fang Shibo appeared like a ghost, and his little face was so excited that he seemed to have just drunk Taishang Laojun's footwashing water.
Kong Fang understood what he meant, but he was just surprised why Lao Wang spread the news of his illness.
Didn't the people of the Daxing Dynasty hide their illness and avoid medical treatment?
Isn't he harming himself by loud horns?
But he was soon relieved. The people of the Daxing Dynasty did not dare to say that they were sick and were afraid of healing, but in fact, they did not dare to look down on the sick and did not dare to get sick.
Lao Wang was "afflicted" with dysentery, and he was sure to die, but he came back to life.
It was not an accident, but it was given medicine by its master.
Picking up a life under a terminal illness is enough for him to blow for half a year; Coupled with the master's gift, he still doesn't blow to the sky? Of course, it is not ruled out that he will shoot himself with a rainbow fart in the air.
This kid is kind of interesting!
Kong Fang finally let go of his mustard.
Fortunately, Taishang Laojun endorsed him, so he didn't have to waste saliva to explain, especially to explain to the Fang family how he suddenly could be cured.
Because Langzhong was originally a scarce species in the Daxing Dynasty.
Even if the Fang family pharmacy is one of the best in Baoding Mansion, there are only two old and dizzy old men sitting in the hall. And Kong Fang's predecessor was just a nerd, and he didn't have to be strong in poetry.
As for curing the sick and saving people, it is better to wash and sleep, otherwise the patient will die faster.
"What, do you have an opinion?"
Kong Fang obliquely begs a cheap brother-in-law.
Fang Shibo hurriedly said, "How dare you have an opinion?" My brother-in-law is favored by the gods, and it's too late for me to be happy, how can I have an opinion? ”
"Sensible!"
Kong Fang touched his head.
"Brother-in-law, why don't you ask Taishang Laojun to give me a magic medicine that makes me stronger?" Fang Shibo raised his head with an eager expression.
Kong Fang scratched his head, to be honest, this requirement is not too high.
The problem is that he doesn't know Taishang Laojun.
Ask him for medicine?
Give you a dead man's head!
He really wants to tell the truth, but once the lie is told, you can only make up more lies to round it up, otherwise you will be devoured by your own lies, and the end will be bleak.
Here comes the problem again.
It is absolutely no problem for him to have herbs for headache and brain fever, because in his previous life, his grandfather was a barefoot doctor in the village and taught him a lot of Chinese herbal medicine.
As for the medicine that makes you stronger?
Mo said that he, the descendant of a barefoot doctor, was the top medical expert in his previous life, and he couldn't make this medicine.
Unless it's the kind of miracle medicine that lasts half an hour beforehand.
