Chapter 673: Flower of Evil
"Xiahou came here today, but I don't know why?" After the excitement passed, Sun Simiao asked Xia Hongsheng to do it, and asked with a smile.
Xia Hongsheng replied: "I want to ask the Taoist chief for a medicine, this medicine was introduced to the Central Plains from the west, and it is rumored that there are ingredients in this medicine in Ma Boiling San." This medicine has the effects of astringent lungs, astringent intestines, cough, pain relief and hypnosis, and treats symptoms such as long-term cough, diarrhea and dysentery. This medicine is the capsule of the flower, its flower leaves are green, colorful, the stem is tingting and jade, the capsule is high on the top, extremely beautiful, the flower has four leaves, red and white, there is a light red halo on it, its sac shape is like an arrow, there is fine rice, the name is called poppy. ”
"Poppy ......" Sun Simiao groaned for a while, smiled at his beard, and said, "The medicine Xiahou said is only afraid that it is A Furong." ”
"Ah Furong......" Xia Hongsheng nodded and said, "It should be this thing, what does the Dao Chief know about this medicine?" ”
This medicine was passed down from the Western Regions to the Central Plains during the Wei and Jin dynasties, and at the end of the Han Dynasty, Hua Tuo took this medicine to make hemp boiling powder. This medicine is originally a flower, and the bloom is extremely beautiful. However, there are few growers in the Middle Earth, and most of them come from Daqin and Tianzhu. Sun Simiao said to Xia Hongsheng: "This medicine not only has the effects of astringent lungs, astringent intestines, cough, pain relief and hypnosis, as mentioned by Xia Hou, but also can treat long-term cough, diarrhea, dysentery, prolapse, and pain in the heart and abdomen. If it is used in excess, it can also make people hallucinate, and it can also have a splitting headache, vomiting and abdominal pain. ”
"Exactly!" Xia Hongsheng said to Sun Simiao: "Today's people cough in vain, and use corn husks to stop work; For those who drain from damp heat, use it to stop astringency. However, although its work to stop the disease is urgent, it is also like a sword, and it is advisable to abstain from it. ”
"Oh?" Sun Simiao looked at Xia Hongsheng: "What does Xiahou mean is that although this medicine has miraculous effects, it has side effects?" ”
Xia Hongsheng nodded and said to Sun Simiao: "Not bad." Dao Chief, to be honest, this hibiscus should be called a poppy, and it does have medicinal effects, but its side effects are so great that they are enough to overshadow its medicinal effects. Today, I came to the Taoist chief, just hoping that the Taoist chief can make a special study of this medicine, and then join me to ask Your Majesty to limit the cultivation of this thing to the imperial court, and the planter must report to the imperial court, and have a document issued by the imperial court, before planting, and the entire process of its sale and use must be supervised by the imperial court, and private cultivation is prohibited! ”
Sun Simiao was stunned: "Why?" This substance has miraculous effects on a variety of diseases, and the old man also knows this medicine, and he also uses this medicine, but what he sees is fine! ”
"Dao Chief, the problem is not in this flower, but in the fact that this flower is the raw material of an extremely vicious and terrible medicine!" Xia Hongsheng said to Sun Simiao.
Sun Simiao frowned, looked at Xia Hongsheng's solemn face, and asked, "But I don't know what kind of poison it is?" “
"Out of the capsule of the poppy, when it is not ripe, the flesh is cut with a knife, and the white pulp that flows out of it. From this white pulp, you can make something called opium. Xia Hongsheng said to Sun Simiao: "The psychedelic effect of the poppy comes from this. And its white pulp is even worse. If opium is made into it, if one smokes it, or swallows the poppy fruit, one will suddenly feel pleasure and feel like a fairy, as if he were in bliss. When the power of the medicine passes, this feeling disappears completely. After a few times, the person becomes addicted to the drug. If you don't smoke opium, you will be weak, sweating, restless, tears, irritable, irritable, shivering, and your body is like an ant devouring your heart, curling in pain, cramping and convulsions, and the pain is incomparable, and it is almost worse than death. And at this moment, once you get this medicine and swallow it, you will immediately get better, and you will be fluttering again. If it could not continue, it would be even more painful, and the thirst for opium would become insane, and in severe cases, it would lead to coma and even death. ”
"So vicious?!" Sun Simiao was taken aback.
Xia Hongsheng nodded: "Not bad." Moreover, because of long-term opium smoking, people will become yellow and thin, and their bodies will be rickety, weak, and not human-like. Moreover, when a drug addict is committed, in order to get the drug to relieve the drug addiction, that person is willing to do anything! Because the drug addiction is not satisfied, the pain is unbearable for him, as long as he can get the medicine to consume, sell all the family property to buy medicine, abandon his wife and children, kill people and set fires, he will do it all. In this way, opium smokers are controlled by those who produce and sell opium. If this thing spreads, people will all become ghosts, their bodies will be weak, and their spirits will collapse, and when the time comes, Datang will become hell! ”
"This Fleur can make something like poison?" Sun Simiao looked at Xia Hongsheng in shock, unable to believe it.
"This flower is the flower of evil! If the Taoist doesn't believe me, I can take the Taoist to the spy camp. One of my caravans became addicted to this substance in Great Qin, and was forcibly detoxified by me in the dungeon of the spy camp. Xia Hongsheng said to Sun Simiao: "He just took too much, normal use, and drugs containing this very little of this substance, and he was already addicted, and the toxicity was not weak, and he could still be forced to quit, but it was already unbearable pain." ”
"What?!" Sun Simiao stood up suddenly: "Then let's go now!" ”
Xia Hongsheng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Sun Simiao attaching so much importance to it.
Xiahou also said it. Hibiscus has miraculous effects on several symptoms, and now it is being used more often! Sun Simiao said: "Among the thousands of gold prescriptions, there is also a list of its medicinal effects, but today it is said by Xiahou to be such a poison, how can the poor Dao not be in a hurry!" If this is the case, this "Thousand Gold Fang" will have to be changed! Xiahou, please take the channel to meet the addicted patient! ”
Seeing that Sun Simiao was in a hurry, Xia Hongsheng had no choice but to take Sun Simiao back to the spy camp.
When they arrived at the spy camp, Duan Chan was also there, so they went to the dungeon together.
Xia Hongsheng summoned the medical officer over and gave Sun Simiao all the records of the past few days.
Sun Simiao and the medical officer looked at each other, and while watching, Sun Simiao asked some questions, and the medical officer answered them one by one.
Taking advantage of this moment, Xia Hongsheng went to the door of the dungeon, looked inside, and saw Arhan holding his head on the bed humming and chirping, rolling around. He kept scratching his body, and the clothes on his chest had been torn, revealing his chest that was scratched with blood marks on his chest.
"Open the door." Xia Hongsheng said to the guards.
The cell door opened, Arhan heard the voice, and immediately pounced, and threw himself at Xia Hongsheng's feet, hugging Xia Hongsheng hard, regardless of the tears and saliva on his face, he wiped his face all over his clothes, and he didn't have the strength to cry, so he could only beg for mercy like babbling: "Master Hou!" Master Hou! I beg Lord Hou to be gracious! I beg Lord Hou to be gracious! Arhan doesn't want anything, he doesn't want anything, and his marquis gives Arhan a pill! Ask the Hou Ye to give Alhan a pill! Ask the marquis to give Arhan ...... Arhan doesn't want anything, give it all to Hou Ye! Alhan is all for the Hou Ye! …… Arhan doesn't want them all...... Ask Master Hou to give me a pill, just one pill! ”
Arhan hugged Xia Hongsheng's leg and couldn't stop humming.
Turning his head, he met Sun Simiao's shocked gaze. (To be continued.) )
