Volume 6 Liang Shan Po Chapter 532 [Yellow and White Arts]

At a time when the people in Tokyo turned today into a day of gossip, the pear orchard of the Qingunkan Villain in the north outer wing was now overcrowded. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The total number of people who came to participate in the forum today is roughly estimated to exceed 500, and the spacing of the futons can only be adjusted and reduced.

It's just that half of the Taoist priests from all factions came today, and they were all old acquaintances who came to cheer three days in a row, and the other half were almost all rich merchants and gentry in the city, and the eunuchs and eunuchs were naturally all gone, only the heartless Zhao Heng and Zhao Fu came early, and they looked carefree, obviously not knowing about the edict.

This is also the case, many times the things that outsiders around you know are often hidden from the closest people!

Before going on stage, Huang Jie looked at the scenery behind the stage with a whisk, but saw Lin Chong and Lu Junyi holding a plate of yellow and fluffy snacks, Lin Chong leaned behind Huang Jie while eating and smiled: "It's weird!" None of the high-ranking officials have come today? ”

Huang Jie smiled, turned his head and replied, "Didn't Senior Brother go back to the mansion last night?" But I don't know why? ”

Lin Chong shook his head, and came to see Lu Junyi, Lu Junyi rolled his eyes and said, "I live in the view, and I don't know why!" ”

Huang Jie said with a smile: "Yesterday, Zhao Guanjia issued an edict to sin himself, not to go to the two provinces of Zhongshu and Shangshu, and directly distributed it to the whole country, and the messengers from all walks of life also avoided the capital, and last night sent the news to Zhengzhou (west), Chenliu (south), Huazhou (north), Xingrenfu (east), and this morning with the merchants who entered the city to send the news back. ”

"Ouch!"

Lin Chong and Lu Junyi screamed when they heard Qi Qi, Lin Chong's hands shook even more, and the plate in his hand almost overturned, Huang Jie also smiled when he saw it: "It's just a guilty edict, what is the excitement of senior brother?" ”

Lin Chong's face changed several times, and his face was full of anxiety: "This ...... This...... This...... But it's a big deal! ”

Huang Jie asked, "But what does it have to do with senior brother?" ”

Lin Chong was stunned when he heard this, but when he thought about it, he stretched out his hand and patted his head and said, "That's right!" What does it have to do with me? What am I going to do? ”

Lu Junyi on the side was in a trance, so he stroked his beard and said, "What kind of crime did you give to this innocent person?" ”

Huang Jie coughed, and then recited the content of the more than 100 words of the edict, and then said: "The words are blocked, and the guide is heard every day; Grace holds power, greed and ambition; The gentry is virtuous and capable, trapped in the party; The rise and fall of political affairs are confined to the chronicle. The disaster is ruined, and it is ruined by Zhurong, and this crime is also pertinent! ”

When Lu Junyi and Lin Chong heard this, their expressions changed again, and there was a little more worry between their eyebrows, and when Huang Jie saw it, he also smiled and said: "Two senior brothers, this shouldn't be something we are thinking about, what kind of brains do we have to worry about!" But I didn't see it, Cai Jing and Wang Hao didn't come yesterday, and even Gao Yu didn't come today, but the prince Zhao Heng came......"

Lin Chong glanced sideways at Zhao Heng, who was sitting in the first row and talking to Zhao Fu beside him, and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Huang Jie also smiled and said: "For the Zhao family, this matter is not a problem!" ”

After saying that, he laughed, and then he also played the dust and went up to the high platform, and then after making a ceremony and seeing everyone, he also said: "Everyone! Today's poor road is not nonsense, this is the beginning of the righteousness! ”

As he spoke, a Taoist boy climbed the ladder again, and wrote three big characters on the giant screen on the high platform: Huangbaizhu!

This so-called Huangbaizhu is actually another name for alchemy or alchemy. Since ancient times, this Chinese has used yellow as a metaphor for gold, and white as silver, collectively known as "yellow and white", and later generations of Taoist masters tried to turn base metals (copper, lead, tin, etc.) into golden-yellow, or silvery-white fake gold and silver, also known as "medicinal gold" or "medicinal silver" (i.e., various alloys).

The technique of making "Huang Bai", that is, "Huang Bai Shu", the origin and development of the Chinese Huang Bai Shu are synchronized with the Wai Dan technique of Taoism, and originate from the immortal Fang technique of the Yan Qi Fangshi of the Warring States Period. History, when Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty, there were many people who counterfeited gold, and Emperor Jing issued an edict in the sixth year of the first century (151 years ago): "The law of abandoning the market of fake gold is set to be minted."

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu An, the king of Huainan, wrote eight volumes of "Novella", saying more than 200,000 words of the art of immortals and yellow-white. It is also rumored that Li Shaojun, a priest, can turn dansha into gold. Retrieving historical books, the Eastern Han Dynasty royal family and Xinmang (Wang Mang Dynasty) both have a large amount of "gold", and there are many stories in the society about making "medicine gold" to get rich or making "longevity medicine". It can be seen that the two Han Dynasty were the era of the prevalence of yellow and white atractylodes, especially the preparation of "medicinal gold" as its characteristics.

The Taoist Waidan Huangbaizhu has been prevalent in China for nearly two thousand years, just like the Jianghu technique of deception, although it contains some scientific truths, it is not a natural science, and alchemy is to become an immortal, and this system cannot develop science.

For more than 1,000 years, although the idea of turning base metals into precious metals has not been realized, but after long-term practice, it has made contributions to China's ancient metallurgy and alloying.

But after Dao Tong wrote down the three words Huang Baizhu, he listened to the sound of breathing and pumping in the audience, which was said yesterday, Huang Jie used Archimedes' law of buoyancy and the law of bar as an introduction, and introduced his three new laws: the law of drag, the law of acceleration and the law of force.

These three new laws may be too obscure for the common people in the market, but for the people of the two sects of Confucianism and Taoism in the world, as long as they are really well-read and solid, they can recognize these as great university questions without careful study. Therefore, I am naturally looking forward to the content of today's forum, who knew that today's topic was actually "Huangbaizhu", which naturally surprised everyone.

At this time, Huang Jie suddenly stretched out his hand and patted it, and he also saw a team of fire workers walking up with a large tray and distributing things with everyone, but they saw that there were two main things distributed by this fire attacker, one was a small bowl of drinks, and the smell should be soybean juice (soybean milk), and the other was a snack wrapped in hemp paper, about a foot long, burnt yellow and fluffy and bubbling with rapeseed oil.

Huang Jie smiled on the stage: "Before I start speaking, I would like to invite you to try a snack recently researched by Poor Dao, bean juice with fried ghosts!" ”

Speaking, naturally someone also gave a point to Huang Jie, and saw him pick up the small esophagus wrapped in mulberry paper: "This thing is made of dough to make frying value, and Poor Dao can't think of a good name for a while, so he named it fried ghost, or it can also be called fried dough sticks, this thing has two ways to eat, dry and wet!" ”

Speaking of Huang Jie, he also came to demonstrate, and the so-called dry eating was not mentioned, and wet eating was naturally eaten with soy milk.

Everyone naturally learned from it, and after tasting it, they were full of praise, and they all said that this thing was really a good snack.

Speaking of this fritters, there was no in the Northern Song Dynasty, and folk legend has it that Yue Fei of the Southern Song Dynasty was framed by Qin Hui and his wife Wang Shi after the Wind Wave Pavilion. When the people of Lin'an (now Hangzhou) heard the news, everyone was filled with indignation, and the owner of a fried food store near the Fengbo Pavilion grabbed a piece of dough and kneaded it into two villains, a man and a woman, glued them back to back, threw them into the oil pot, and shouted: "Come and eat fried Qin Hui!" ”

For a time, Lin'an City took effect one after another, munching on "fried cypress" to vent his anger, and it was only in later generations that there were fried ghosts, fritters and other foods.

But said that Huang Jie waited for everyone to eat well, and after the fire attack people took the bowl, he took out a crystal clear crystal cup to show to everyone, but seeing that the cup seemed to contain white powder, Huang Jie also smiled after displaying: "The snack you just tasted, you used this thing when making it: alum!"
