Chapter 1037: Longevity Pill (I)

When everyone heard the name Yanshou Dan, they came to the spirit again. Yang Huairen's reputation in the Liao State is not small, and everyone knows that he is a young talent who has emerged in the Song Dynasty in the past two years.

Everyone has heard of Yang Huairen's experience, and of course, from the perspective of the Liao people, Yang Huairen is also mixed.

Some people were very interested in him, others praised his abilities, and some saw him as a threat to the Liao State.

However, when it comes to the experience of Yang Huairen, it seems that they all have a common feeling, that is, this person is very mysterious, young and not only skilled in cooking, but also very talented in other aspects.

When it comes to these talents of his, it seems unlikely that he was born with them, but it should be that when he was growing up, he was fortunate enough to meet an unfathomable master and learned these outstanding talents from his master.

And about Yang Huairen's master, there are many legends, some people say that he is a hermit master who lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and some people say that he is a mortal immortal in the sky, and the latter guess seems to be more legendary and mysterious.

But whether Yang Huairen's master is a heavenly immortal or not, there is no way to know, the average level of education of ancient people is low, and the background of the times is due to the atmosphere, so they are convinced of the things of gods and ghosts.

For example, several ingredients recently cultivated by Yang Huairen have a small amount of them flowing into the Liao Kingdom, and the names of these vegetables are called fairy fruit fairy beans by the Song people, and the word fairy is added to the prefix, which proves that these vegetables are extraordinary.

These ingredients have a unique taste and a high price, so from the beginning of this part of the Khitan nobles who tasted the taste first, they felt that these foods should not be mortal things.

So the statement that Yang Huairen's master is an immortal from the immortal world feels even more reasonable.

Today, Yang Huairen suddenly wanted to pay tribute to Yelu Hongji with a bottle of elixir called Yanshou Dan, and everyone speculated whether this elixir was an immortal medicine taught to him by the gods?

Yelu Hongji naturally reacted the most to the word longevity, everyone in this world hopes to live a long life, so they all hope to be able to get the elixir with longevity to take, not to mention Yelu Hongji, who is already dying.

He couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and asked with a smile on his face like a flower, "Envoy Yang, do you want to offer the Longevity Pill?" ”

Yang Huairen nodded, "Back to Your Majesty, yes, this envoy is specially going to offer the Life Extension Pill to Your Majesty, and after Your Majesty takes this elixir, you can extend your life for at least three years!" ”

"Three years longer!!"

An exclamation erupted in the court! Yelu Hongji hurriedly instructed the attendants beside him, "Hurry up and present it to me." ”

The chamberlain walked over and took the small porcelain vase from Yang Huairen's hand, quickly returned to Yelu Hongji's side, and carefully served the porcelain vase.

Yelu Hongji took it, carefully inspected the porcelain bottle, opened the cork again, and found that the porcelain bottle contained about ten bean-sized pills, and smelled a refreshing fragrance.

"This ...... Is it the longevity pill? You said that you will extend your life by three years, but is it true? ”

Yang Huairen replied smugly, "Really, but what the envoy said was that it would be possible to extend life for at least three years, and that's what my master said when he taught me the refining method of the Longevity Pill."

But since it's at least, it's not necessarily a three-year life extension, it's possible to extend life by four years, five or six years, maybe it depends on the physique of the person taking the longevity pill, I can't say this clearly. ”

There was another exclamation in the court, but some people looked suspicious, thinking that Yang Huairen was too free to speak and act as he wanted, and what he said was half-true and half-false, and it was not easy to determine whether what he was saying now was true or false.

Yang Huairen knew that he was very curious when he saw Yelu Hongji's appearance, so he continued, "What is the effect of this longevity pill, in fact, the envoy can't come up with any examples to prove it, because this is the first time I have gathered enough of the nine hundred and eighty-one precious medicinal materials in the secret recipe, and I have only refined it for the first time a few years ago.

There are a few medicinal materials that are so rare that I sent people all over the world to find a little bit of them, so in the end, there were only sixty longevity pills that were refined.

I divided the sixty longevity pills into six parts, and put them in six porcelain bottles, three of which were left in the Great Song Dynasty, one bottle was intended to be taken by Jiaci, one bottle was dedicated to our Song Dynasty officials, and one bottle was kept for myself to take.

A year later, our Song Dynasty officials appointed me as an envoy to the Liao State, and I felt that I should give it to His Majesty in order to show my sincerity as an envoy of the Song Dynasty to His Majesty the Liao State. ”

Yang Huairen was not sincere, Yelu Hongji would not be grateful, and those Khitan nobles were even less concerned, they cared more about what he said before sending people to travel all over the world to find the eighty-one precious medicinal materials for refining the Longevity Pill.

Although they are not Langzhong, they also know that they usually need to grab a pair of medicines, and they need several kinds of more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, and Yanshou Dan needs ninety-nine eighty-one, and when they hear it, they will feel that Yanshou Dan is not simple.

Yang Huairen actually said casually, the number ninety-nine eighty-one is just because it is more able to bluff people when he says it.

In fact, he only used a few relatively rare spices to make three bottles of pills last night, and the main ingredient was just the most ordinary flour.

The reason why he did this was because last night he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a way to help the three hundred or so people of the Hulun Erya tribe mentioned by the ghost sister to escape from the Liao State smoothly, so there was a scene of fooling the Khitan emperor and nobles in the court of the Liao State.

The number of ninety-nine eighty-one really had a certain effect, and people who were a little skeptical of Yang Huairen also felt that what Yang Huairen said was very good, and they believed what he said more and more.

In Yelu Hongji's opinion, the longevity pill should be true, and regardless of the legend that Yang Huairen's master is an immortal, he also has reason to think that the longevity pill is true.

Because Yang Huairen came to Liao as an envoy of the Song Dynasty this time, his main task was to send the annual coins paid to the Liao State on behalf of the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Now that he has completed his main task, according to the thinking pattern of the Song people, there is no reason for him to make another move, and to offer any longevity pill to the emperor of Liao.

If the Yanshou Pill is fake, or even poison, then the consequences will be too serious, and the envoys of the Song Dynasty poisoned the Emperor of Liao, which would trigger a peerless war between Song and Liao.

Therefore, after Yelu Hongji analyzed, he felt that the Longevity Pill was definitely not fake, but Yang Huairen offered the Longevity Pill to him, and it was absolutely impossible for him to be out of kindness, he must have another purpose.
