Volume 1 Going to the Salt Transport Chapter 011 Qing Xuanshi Offering Yang Shengyu
At that time, Daomen was the state religion, and the study of alchemy was quite popular. Dan, pill also, healer the use of healing. The world divides the medicine into two, one of them: the natural grass insect stone, such as the weed, ephedra, and the stone, which can be taken by boiling and grinding, and is called the original medicine; Through multi-layer filtration, only the essence is left after removing the dross, which is far better than the original medicine in treating diseases with pills. However, due to the complicated refining process and the huge cost in the middle of the period, the elixir is not easy to obtain, and it is only passed on among the rich and noble, and the people really only hear its name, but do not see its shape. Among the ten departments of the Dahua Dynasty, there is a medical department, and the medical department has a civil affairs department under its jurisdiction, and there is a full-time alchemy ya, named Baekje Temple. Most of the alchemy pills in Baekje were commonly used medicines such as antidiarrheal and cold-dispelling medicines, and those of the highest quality were sold to the imperial court for the exclusive use of the royal family, the lesser ones were sold to the powerful and wealthy, and the worst ones were sent to the hospital hall to treat serious diseases.
After dismissing the retinue of Emperor Yonghua and the Taoist priests in the hall, the Qingxuan Taoist approached the Ding furnace, scooped out the medicinal liquid from the Ding furnace with a purple gold spoon in his right hand, placed it in the purple gold bowl in his left hand, brought it to the tea table, and slowly sat down on the throne. Emperor Yonghua gently followed him, sat down in general, looked into the bowl, and saw that there was as much as half a bowl of medicinal liquid, only to hear Zheng Sheng, a Qingxuan Taoist, said, "Your Majesty, you and I have known each other since we were young, and we have been friends for decades, and our personal relationship is not shallow; Emperor Yonghua, named Xia Huaijin, since childhood by the influence of family learning, obsessed with Taoism, when he was young in the Zhenwu Temple in the Qing cultivation, then he and Qingxuan friends, because of the age is a few years older, is to always be a senior brother. At this time, when he heard Qingxuan Daoren's deep words, he was quite puzzled, and immediately asked, "Senior brother, what is there to be embarrassed about? ”
Qingxuan Daoist smiled bitterly, shook his head, stood up, paced a few steps in the room, returned to his seat, took a teacup, took a sip of hot tea, and then said slowly, "Daoist, the law is also." The moon is full and the moon is lacking, and the day and night are the same, and it is the same rule for people to be born, old, sick, and die when their lives come to an end. At this moment, your soul is declining, your soul is weak, your soul is withered, your body is broken, and you will die within two years when you reach the end of your life. Now that I am relieving your life, I have spied on the heavenly machine, and when I refine this yang sheng liquid to prolong your life, it is even more contrary to the way of heaven, I am afraid that my cultivation will be greatly hindered. When Qingxuan Daoist talked about this, he looked unwilling, showing great regret in his heart. I only heard him say again, "Heaven and earth and man are three materials, people live between heaven and earth, heaven and earth are endless, mortals and sentient beings will live a hundred and ten years to the end, it is the limit! Although the emperor has been enlightened for a long time, the law is not profound, and I use Taoism in vain, spy on the heavens, and impose the Taoism I have realized on you, which is acting against the sky. This yang liquid seems to be unremarkable, but it is actually an extraordinary thing, which can repair the body, warm and moisten the body, and feel the two souls, and is the most good medicine for life and health. Before the master left the temple, he taught me the method of making the prescription, and after 22 years of hard research and research, he realized the mystery seven years ago, and after three years of trial, the prescription was successful. After refining the first furnace of Yangsheng liquid, in the four years after I took it, my limbs and faces have indeed regained a lot of spring. Speaking of this yang shengye, the Qingxuan Daoist actually looked respectful, and he added another sentence, "The end is extremely mysterious!"
When Emperor Yonghua heard this, his face flushed, his eyes looked at the Yangsheng liquid on the table in the purple gold bowl, the essence was clear, his body couldn't help but tremble for a while, and he was about to reach out to take it, when he suddenly heard the Qingxuan Taoist reprimand, "Your Majesty, it's not yet time! Yinshi, which means "shift", all things are born Yinran! The effect of Yangsheng liquid is exactly the principle of the beginning, and if you take it at two o'clock, the medicinal effect is the best!" Emperor Yonghua froze his hands, kept nodding his head and said yes, and returned to his seat, but his eyes could no longer leave the medicine bowl.
After about a quarter of an hour, Qingxuan Daoist took out a needle bag from the drawer of the tea house and spread it out on the table, saying that Emperor Yonghua said, "After this yang liquid enters the viscera, it can force out the poison in the body, and it can settle in the body and protect the organs;
When Emperor Yonghua heard this, his face froze, and he was quite disappointed, thinking that this Yang Sheng Liquid actually had such a miraculous effect, no matter what the price, he must have asked the Qingxuan Dao people to refine a few more clothes. At this time, Qingxuan Daoist broke off this thought with a word, and Emperor Yonghua was really lost.
Without waiting for Emperor Yonghua to speak again, Qingxuan Daoist said again, "Your Majesty, stretch out your right hand, palm facing up and flat on the table!" "Emperor Yonghua put his right hand according to his words, only to feel that the palm of his hand was cold, and a golden needle was inserted in the three acupoints of Lao Palace, Shaofu, and Yuji, and he pulled it out after a breath, and heard Qingxuan Daoist say again, "Put your right hand into the medicine bowl, and stretch out your left hand!" "Don't speak!
After listening to Qingxuan Daoist's instructions, Emperor Yonghua suddenly felt dizzy, and after two breaths, he fell unconscious.
I don't know how long it took, Emperor Yonghua woke up, got up from the tea table, and looked for the medicine bowl, only to see that there was more than half of the liquid medicine left in the bowl. A voice came from the front right, "The medicine has been taken, move the limbs!" Emperor Yonghua did not doubt that there were two, he stood up according to the words, shook his waist and limbs, and felt that his limbs were light and extremely happy, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and approached the side of Qingxuan Daoist and asked, "Is this such a miraculous effect?" Senior brother, there is still a lot of medicinal liquid left in that bowl, why don't you take some more with me!" Emperor Yonghua's words trembled slightly, and his excitement in his heart could not be concealed.
Qingxuan Daoist turned around and looked directly at Emperor Yonghua, "The liquid medicine in the bowl has no medicinal properties, and it is useless to take it again." ”
Emperor Yonghua was still ecstatic, and when he heard the words of Qingxuan Daoist, he was disappointed, happy and sad for a while, crying with joy, and happy and sad, and his face was quite funny.
When Emperor Yonghua's mood recovered a little, Fang Shi, a Qingxuan Daoist, said again: "Your Majesty, although entering this Yang Shengye can warm and moisten the soul and awaken the soul, when you prolong your life, after all, it is not the right way, and you still need to add more reason to the Dao and participate in the Fa." The Tao is profound, and the longevity is self-sufficient!" Qingxuan Dao people speak from the bottom of their hearts, and they are serious and long-hearted.
When Emperor Yonghua heard this, he nodded heavily, and said categorically, "In the past few years, I will definitely pass on this throne! This throne has imprisoned me for more than 20 years, and it has really hurt me a lot!"
