Chapter 1376: Refining Medicine

Pan Jinlian dressed up, the color was even worse than before, and walked towards the hall with a three-inch golden lotus twisting the waist of the water snake. Ximen Qinggang and the new lady finished worshipping heaven and earth, and looked at Pan Jinlian, who was like a peach blossom, and originally wanted to scold a few words, but the words were swallowed again, "Why did you come out?" ”

"Today is a day of great joy for officials, the slave family has come to say goodbye, this is the mandarin duck handkerchief I embroidered overnight, sent to the official and sister, I wish you two a long time, white head to old age." As she spoke, Pan Jinlian took the embroidered handkerchief from the maid Qiu Ju and handed it over.

Meng Yulou took off the red hijab, and she and Pan Jinlian stood side by side in front of people in full costume, one was cold and beautiful, and the other was delicate, each with its own beauty, so that everyone couldn't help but secretly envy Ximenqing's good fortune. "My sister thanked me here." Meng Yulou generously took the embroidered handkerchief, "My sister's craftsmanship is really good, and it is not inferior to the embroidery girl in our cloth village." ”

Praise and depreciate, and the Tao is deeper. Pan Jinlian's wet eyes looked at Ximenqing aggrievedly, but she saw that Ximenqing had taken the embroidered handkerchief, "Madame said yes." ”

Pan Jinlian had no choice but to smile and say, "My sister is too famous, and my sister is leaving." ”

"Sister, wait, it's a coincidence today, I heard that my sister has an old friend, why don't you see me and leave?"

Liu Yu, the old man, stood up and stepped forward, "Brother is so blessed, the sisters-in-law get along well, the backyard is harmonious, and my brother can show his ambitions, which is really gratifying." As he spoke, he poured two glasses of wine and handed them to Pan Jinlian and Meng Yulou. poured two glasses of wine for Ximen Qinghe himself, "Little brother, I salute everyone." ”

Meng Yulou was not an ignorant woman, and after listening to Liu Yu's words, she didn't bother to compete with Pan Jinlian anymore, so she drank with a smile. Pan Jinlian looked at Liu Yu with her eyes. These three inches are a little different from the past.

After toasting, Liu Yu whispered to Ximenqing: "Little brother is leaving." I'm going to go back and look at the pills, which are so valuable. I had to be careful and didn't dare to make any mistakes. ”

Ximenqing nodded, "Then there is Brother Lao." ”

"I have a 'Changchun Pill' here, although the effect is not as good as the 'Fushou Pill' being refined, but the effect is also wonderful, I don't know if my brother can trust me." Liu Yu took out a small pill, the pill was faintly fragrant, and the whole body was blue.

Ximenqing took the pill and glanced at Liu Yu, and threw the pill into his mouth. I took a sip of wine and took it. As soon as the pill entered his abdomen, Ximen Qing only felt a hot breath gushing out of his chest, rushing towards his limbs, he closed his eyes slightly, feeling this magical feeling, and exhaled a long breath, his perception was refreshed, and his body seemed to be full of strength. "It's amazing." So he looked forward to the batch of Fushou Dan that Liu Yu, who had spent thirty percent of his family resources, was refining. personally sent Liu Yu to the gate, and Ximen Qing said affectionately: "Brother is waiting for the good news of my brother here." ”

"I won't teach my brother to be disappointed." Liu Yu turned around and pulled away the harmless smile on his face. Hang a sneer. The ingredients of the pills he gave to Ximenqing were similar to the stimulants of later generations, and they also added Yang-boosting ingredients. In order to cover up the ingredients, Liu Yu deliberately falsely used many precious medicinal materials in Ximenqing to cover people's eyes, and "Fushoudan" is a real opium. The main medicinal material is the poppy-poppy that Ximenqing found, and the poppy-poppy is a medicinal herb, so it will not arouse suspicion.

Ximenqing took the blue pill. On the night of the cave room, he fought with the bride for 300 rounds, and the second day was refreshed. Thinking of the ecstasy-soul-happiness that he had never had last night, he couldn't wait to come to Liu Yu's house. I want to check the situation of alchemy, and by the way, I want a few more "Changchun Pills" from yesterday. It was still Shi Bao who opened the door, and Shi Bao probed his brain to look left and right before letting Ximen Qing enter the house.

"Little brother, bring me a bowl of sesame paste."

Shi Bao maintained a polite but distant attitude, and said lukewarmly: "I didn't do it today, only eight treasure porridge." ”

Ximen Qing heard this name strangely, "I'm tired of a bowl." ”

Shi Bao turned to the kitchen and muttered, "When this is a porridge shop." "Put down the eight-treasure porridge," I'm going back to the room to warm the book, Mr. Simon wait, Mr. will be bathed in a while. ”

"I know, you can go and leave me alone." After speaking, Ximenqing rolled up his sleeves, picked up the spoon and ate it in a big gulp.

"Brother Ximen, why don't you stay at home with your new sister-in-law, and come to me to eat?!" Liu Yu wore his wet hair and wore the strange clothes in Ximenqing's eyes.

"Come and see my brother." Ximen Qing said with a smile.

I'm afraid I'm here to ask for pills. Liu Yu smiled, sat down and poured himself a cup of hot water, "My brother is really flattered." ”

"This porridge tastes really good."

"If my brother thinks it's good, I'll copy it down and give it to my brother's cook, so that I can eat it every day."

"Then my brother thanked me here."

"You're welcome...... How does my brother feel about the pill yesterday? ”

"Excellent, excellent."

The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

"Sir, why don't you dry your hair?" Shi Bao opened the curtain, handed a bowl of eight-treasure porridge to Liu Yu, turned around and took a clean handkerchief and walked over to wipe Liu Yu's head. Liu Yu and Ximenqing didn't continue the topic just now, and they both concentrated on solving the porridge in the bowl.

"Sir, don't do this next time, it's cold, it will be cold in your brain, and your head will hurt." Shi Bao's subordinates didn't stop, "Why didn't Mr. call me after taking a bath?" Sir's bathrobe is too thin, and a thick coat is enough, why does Mr. always forget? Alas~" After speaking, he let out a long sigh.

For the first time, Ximenqing saw a man who was verbose like an old mother and forgot to drink porridge for a while, but Liu Yu was used to it and continued to eat calmly. After wiping his hair, Shi Bao went upstairs to get a cotton coat and put it on Liu Yu, and then Liu Yu drove back to the room to read a book.

After eating porridge, Liu Yu took Ximenqing to see the medicine being boiled. Liu Yu rented the room next door for medicine, and before he entered the house, a smell of medicine wafted over, and when he opened the door, the smell of medicine was even stronger, Ximenqing was choked and sneezed a few times, the light in the house was not strong, and he only saw a large pot on the fire.

Ximenqing covered his mouth and took two steps inside, took a look at it, only to see that it was pitch black, frowning and reluctant to step forward. Liu Yu glanced at him, stepped forward indifferently, stirred the medicinal juice in the pot with a wooden stick, added some herbs to it, and waved his hand at the fire. The fire slammed to the ground, emitting blue flames. Frightened, Ximenqing took a few steps back, staggered and almost fell to the ground. Liu Yu's face remained unchanged. The figure didn't even move.

Ximen Qing came to his senses for a while, stood up and wiped the frightened sweat with his sleeve, trying to stabilize his mind: "You...... Can you spell? ”

"Brother, don't panic, it's just alchemy, it's nothing." Liu Yu said humbly, "The pill will be completed in two days." ”

"Okay, okay." Ximenqing's stimulation today is too great, and he doesn't know what to say, if he thinks about it in the morning. Now it's all gone.

Farewell to Liu Yu, Ximenqing who returned home sat in the study for an hour, and after coming out, he hurriedly called the housekeeper to exchange a hundred taels of gold, although the housekeeper did not understand why he suddenly asked for such a large amount of money, but he still went to the account room to take the silver and went to the money bank to exchange for gold.

Liu Yu waited for Ximenqing to leave, then wiped off the powder on his hands with oil, and rinsed his hands with water a few times.

Two days passed. Liu Yu came to Ximen Mansion with a bottle of pills, Ximen Qing greeted him personally, and ordered someone to prepare good wine and food, and the two came to the study. Ximen Qingping stepped back and closed the door. "Why did Brother Wu come in person, you sent someone to inform you. I went to pick up the medicine myself. ”

"Brother Simon is too polite." Liu Yu took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms under Ximenqing's expectant gaze, and Ximenqing reached out to pick it up. He looked at his hand again, afraid that he would stain the medicine. wiped his hands on his body, then took the medicine bottle with both hands with a smile, opened it, and a light medicinal fragrance wafted out of the bottle lightly.

Ximenqing poured out one, the pill was only the size of a soybean, how could this ...... be so much smaller than Changchun Dan?

"Brother Simon should not underestimate this one, concentration is the essence, if it is as big as Changchun Dan, the medicinal power is too strong, but it is not beneficial to the body, you can only take one pill a day, absolutely not greedy."

Ximen Qingming nodded and shook the medicine bottle, "How many pills are here?" ”

"Thirty grains, a pot of medicinal herbs only boils these thirty grains, so it is particularly precious."

"I don't know ...... next month's pills" Ximenqing looked at Liu Yu with his eyes, and said hesitantly.

"You don't have to take this medicine for a month, and taking it again is just the icing on the cake." Liu Yu took out another slightly larger porcelain bottle, "Here is the Changchun Pill I made with the remaining medicinal materials, a hundred pills, no more than two pills a day." ”

Ximen Qingben was a little regretful that he only had thirty pills of Fushou Pill, but he also knew how many precious medicinal materials these thirty pills had consumed, how could he take them all the time, and when he heard Liu Yu take out a hundred pills of Changchun Pill, he was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately put that regret behind, took the porcelain bottle with both hands, and thanked him a thousand times.

Ximen Qing was satisfied, took out ten gold ingots and handed them to Liu Yu, Liu Yu generously took a heavy bag of ingots, Ximen Qing left him to eat, Liu Yu did not refuse, and said goodbye after eating.

Liu Yu kept an eye on his back when he walked home, and confirmed that no one was following him, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that Ximenqing is temporarily harmless to his heart, thinking that he is now busy testing the effect of the medicine, how can he care about bad thoughts. In this way, his plan can go smoothly.

On the second day, Liu Yu bought a big house, far away from the downtown area, he ordered people to renovate the house according to his own ideas, dug sewer pipes, dug ponds in the yard, built pavilions, planted bamboo, and shortened the construction period to two weeks because of the extra wages.

Two weeks later, Liu Yu moved into the new house, and Ximenqing specially set up a banquet in the largest restaurant in Yanggu County, and invited his friends to celebrate Liu Yu's housewarming. Simon takes medicine every day, and now he can leave the woman, but he can't leave the Fu Shou Dan.

Liu Yu's house is extremely chic, the visitors are all attracted by the decoration configuration of the house, the floor of the bedroom is covered with a carpet made of wool, and when you enter the house, you have to change into a kind of shoes called slippers with open heels without heels, the bed is soft and elastic, as if sleeping on cotton, a whole wall of large wardrobes, the door is actually a push-pull type, and there are three long pieces of wood hanging on the beams, a long hemp rope hangs down, a pull of the hemp rope, the three pieces of wood will rotate, there will be wind, which is much cooler than a fan.

What's even more strange is the flushing toilet, after going to the toilet, as soon as you pull the rope on the water tank, the toilet will be clean, and you don't have to smell the smell of the toilet anymore, and the wooden barrel for bathing is fixed on the ground, and a hole is opened under the wooden barrel, and the bath water is plugged with a wooden bolt when taking a bath, and the bath water flows into the wooden barrel from the boiling water room next door along the bamboo pipe.

People who have seen it say that the life of the gods is nothing more than that. Liu Yu felt that it was still far away, and it would be much more convenient to live with electricity, but now it was just a job. There are not many servants in Liu Yu's house. An old mother who cooks, and a maid who is responsible for daily life. A young man who is responsible for doing chores is more than enough to serve Liu Yu and Shi Bao.

Shi Bao turned over and became the master. Being shouted by the young master and young master, he was extremely unaccustomed to it, Liu Yu asked him to concentrate on learning literature and martial arts, and he didn't have to wait for him anymore, but Shi Bao still brought Liu Yu face wash water every morning and washed Liu Yu's feet at night, and prepared a hot water towel for him to bathe the pancreas after Liu Yuchen ran every day.

Liu Yu thanked him for his filial piety, and he left it to him, but the daily examination of his knowledge and martial arts did not lower the standards because of this, but became stricter.

#####################################################

Wu Song, who has been away from home for more than a month, is like an arrow, and he can't wait to grow wings and fly home. He misses the sesame paste at home, the sweet and sour pork ribs, and the plum dried vegetables and pork, oh, he doesn't miss home so much because of food. I haven't listened to my brother's bedtime stories for a long time, and he is not used to staying up late every night to fall asleep, he is not by his brother's side, and his brother doesn't know if he has been bullied, and Shi Bao has taken good care of his brother. Will my brother lose weight and freeze, will the money left behind be enough for my brother to spend, and will my brother go to sell cooking cakes again...... Alas, how can this horse run so slowly?!

Wu Song, who had already left the large army far behind, threw his horsewhip anxiously. Galloping all the way on the official road. Wu Song, who returned to Yang-Gu-County, first went to Xiangzhi County to pay a business, and then went to the market to buy good wine, good food, fruits and pastries. I took the things I bought in Tokyo and returned home full of joy. When he couldn't get his hands free, he slammed the door. The voice shouted loudly: "Brother, open the door quickly." ”

After a long time, the door was opened, and a strange man poked out, and the strange man saw Wu Song's burly body and all his head clothes, and he didn't dare to slack off: "Who are the officials looking for?" ”

"This is my home, who are you? What about my brother? As he spoke, he knocked the man away and entered the house, where he staggered and fell to the ground. Brother, brother, ......" Wu Song shouted several times and no one answered, staring at the red eyes that had been boiled by the overnight journey, and grabbed the collar of the man on the ground, "What happened to your brother?" Say it. ”

"Official, official, I have something to say, I just moved in, and I don't know the official's brother."

"My brother is a good man who stands up to the sky, he can set the country, he can be a country, he can be anbang, he is dignified and rich, you don't even know my brother?!"

The man was crying with a sad face, I don't even know you, how can I know your brother? If it weren't for the fact that you were dressed all over your head and were an official family, I would have opened my throat a long time ago!

"Yo, Wu Erlang, you're back." The princess who was on the other side of the door came over and shouted affectionately with a smile.

Wu Song turned his head to look at her, his face was three points angry and seven points anxious, "Mrs. Wang, where has my brother gone, do you know?" ”

"Naturally, I know that your brother is different now, I have long seen that Wu Dalang is a talented person, and I really said that my mother-in-law has lived for decades, and she has the best ability to see people."

Wang Po was still boasting, and Wu Song was already impatient, "Take me to my brother." ”

Wang Po was taken aback by Wu Song, who was suddenly approaching, and hurriedly responded: "Okay, okay." ”

Wu Song leaned over to get the food thrown on the ground, turned his head to look at the man who was shaking into a sieve, Wu Song got up and hugged his fists and said: "I offended a lot just now, so I will take these as an apology and leave." ”

Wang Po went to the market and rented a donkey cart, Wu Song sat on the donkey cart, and the cart traveled for half an hour, and saw a towering house in the distance.

"See, your brother lives here now."

Wu Song frowned and pondered, and did not say anything. When he arrived at the place, Wu Song took a few taels of silver and handed it to Wang Po as a thank you. Wu Song stood at the door and hesitated before knocking on the door.

"It's coming, it's coming." The door opened, and a little guy in a hat poked his head out, "Who is the gentleman?" ”

"I'm Wu Song."

"It turned out that the second master was back...... The little one came to Shun'er to give the second master a gift! The little servant opened the door and greeted Wu Song in with a smile, and reached out to knock on the bronze bell hanging on the door, which rang loudly.

Liu Yu, who was teaching Shi Bao in the martial arts training ground, heard the bell and knew that a guest was coming, so he asked Shi Bao to practice the boxing technique he had just taught again, and then left the martial arts training ground. It's not good if the house is too big, and it takes a few minutes to walk from the back house to the front door. When I walked into the hall of the guests, I saw Wu Song, who was in the dust.

Wu Song looked at Liu Yu with red eyes, got up and called, "Brother, I'm back." ”

Liu Yu stepped forward. pinched Wu Song's arm: "I've lost some weight, and I've suffered from sleeping in the open this time." Now that I'm home, I can get some rest. ”

"Brother......

Liu Yu raised his hand to interrupt him. "I know you have a lot of questions, let's talk about it after you've taken a shower and had lunch."

Wu Song had to suppress the many questions in his heart and nodded. After taking a bath, Liu Yu took Wu Song to his room, Wu Song touched it and looked at it, picked a "sofa chair" and sat down, "It's so soft." ”

"Let's go eat first, and you can watch it slowly after eating."

When Shi Bao saw Wu Song during the meal, he still called him Wudu Head. Liu Yu listened and said: "You are no longer a miscellaneous servant, according to your seniority." You will call him second uncle in the future. ”

Shi Bao became excited and looked at Liu Yu, "Then what should I call Mr." ”

"Naturally, it's still sir." Seeing Shi Bao's lost expression, Liu Yu knocked Shi Bao's head with chopsticks, "My mind is too heavy, just call my father-in-law in the future." ”

When Shi Bao heard this, his eyes saw tears, and he knelt on the ground suddenly. Knocked his head at Liu Yu nine times, got up and collected his tears, and called his father-in-law and second uncle with a smile, Wu Song listened to his brother in everything. The extra nephew didn't feel anything, and nodded in response.

Today's table of dishes are all Wu Song's favorite dishes, including sweet and sour pork ribs and dried plum vegetables and pork that he misses. There are also dishes such as fatty sea bass and fragrant roast chicken. More abundant than the New Year. After a full meal, after a full meal. Wu Song saw that Liu Yu was about to leave the table, he took Liu Yu's hand, as if he was afraid that he would escape, he was holding back a stomach of question marks and was waiting for Liu Yu to answer his doubts one by one, but he couldn't let him run away, absolutely not.

Liu Yu was pulled into the bedroom by him crying and laughing, Hey, I just want to go to the toilet. Liu Yu simply said where the money to buy the house came from and how the transaction with Ximenqing was......

After listening to this, Wu Song asked, "When did my brother learn the ability to refine medicine?" ”

"From an ancient book, I just wanted to try, but I didn't think it would be successful." Wu Song kept frowning, and Liu Yu also felt that this was not credible, but he couldn't tell him, your brother and I are modern, and your existence is just a false ......

Wu Song's brows stretched, as if he had figured it out: "My brother is very wise, even if he refines the elixir of life, I also believe it." ”

Liu Yu smiled silently, he really blindly admired himself.

"Brother, tomorrow I want to drink eight-treasure porridge and put more sugar." After finishing business, Wu Song said with a grin.

From the cool drag face to the foodie face, this span is a bit big, is this foodie really one of the one hundred and eight heroes, Wu Song who killed the tiger? Liu Yu smiled helplessly, "I'll tell the kitchen to make it for you tomorrow morning." ”

Wu Song had a good night's sleep, and when he woke up, he overslept, ran out while wearing shoes, walked to the backyard, and saw Liu Yu playing wooden stakes in a leisurely manner, Wu Song complained: "Why didn't my brother call me, he slept until this hour......

Liu Yu didn't leave the stake in front of him, and said: "I ordered Shun'er to call you, you can't afford to shout, you also punched someone, your face was swollen half high, and I don't know when you developed a strange problem, learn from Cao Mengde, who killed people in your dreams?" ”

Wu Song smiled awkwardly, didn't bother to eat, hurriedly rode a horse to the yamen to draw Mao, and now go to work to check in is almost the same meaning, Wu Song arrived at the Yamen is already three poles in the day, the county magistrate did not blame him, heard the sound of his stomach empty, but left him to eat, a shh Before leaving, the magistrate invited Wu Song to come to his house tomorrow to eat and drink, and asked Wu Song to come with his brother, saying that he wanted to reward Wu Song for doing a good job this time.

When Wu Song got home, he pulled Liu Yu and said this, his face was happy, but Liu Yu was smiling, Wu Song had just come back with his front foot, and the servant of the county magistrate sent an invitation on his back foot, which looked very formal. The servant bowed down with a smile and said, "As soon as Wudu left with his head and feet, the magistrate sent an invitation, which is afraid that he will neglect the distinguished guests." ”

"Lord Zhixian said, how dare Wu Song not go, why bother to send an invitation." Wu Song said this, but in his heart he liked to be treated so politely, and stretched out his hand to receive the invitation, but who expected that the servant handed the invitation to Liu Yu, "There will be a carriage to pick up Mr. tomorrow." ”

Liu Yu took it, "Got it." ”

When the servant left, Wu Song couldn't help asking, "When did my brother meet the magistrate?" ”

"I've seen it once."

Ximenqing once went to Goolan Courtyard to have fun and invited Liu Yu to go with him. In addition to inviting Liu Yu, there are also friends in Ximenqing's business and the magistrate of this county, Ximenqing generously took a few pills of Changchun Dan to everyone that night, Liu Yu naturally didn't eat it, and after those few people used it, they all became dissolute. People say that there are three major irons in life, although it may not be accurate, but after such a storm, Liu Yu and Zhixian can be regarded as nodding friends! (To be continued.) )
