When Hunjun begins to make elixirs

Chapter 6 Divine Fruit and Legend

The phoenix perches on the sycamore tree, and the sunset touches the hibiscus trees.

Li Shun didn't understand the legend that the fusang tree was the habitat of the three-legged golden crow, the spirit of the sun. It grew in Tanggu. Why did it appear in Jinzhou of the Dayin Kingdom?Moreover, to the human world, the hibiscus tree itself is also a scourge. Its root system is extremely deep, absorbing the earth's energy, and is said to penetrate the netherworld.

The hibiscus divine fruit contains extremely huge spiritual power. If people eat it, it can indeed achieve the effect of eliminating all diseases, but there is a kind of insect called "rest" in the fruit core.The insect has a mouth but no eyes. Its background is snow-white with light blue markings, and it is extremely cold.

Golden crows often feed on it.

When the hibiscus fruit ripens and falls to the ground, the resting bugs burst out of the core and devour the flesh. The markings on their bodies turn to dark blue and begin to scurry around. The sky is filled with snow wherever they pass, which is called an icy hell. Other creatures that encounter it will also be killed. It is eaten frozen.Fortunately, their lifespan is not long, usually only surviving seven days.

Li Shun has become accustomed to the appearance of this information, and is not surprised. In conjunction with the gluttonous stomach, the entire digestive system from the mouth and tongue to the anus has been given special powers.He can taste the type, growing environment and ingredients of a grain of rice, let alone such a rare thing.

The pulp is edible, but the core is yet to be determined.Now that you have the answer, what are you waiting for?After finishing two or three mouthfuls, he felt no different from the Zengyuan Dan, or even slightly inferior. He looked at the remaining core and fell into deep thought.

"This thing caused such a violent reaction in my stomach, but there is no special effect. Is it just the name that bluffs people? Or is this core the essence?"

Li Shun shuddered. It's not like surviving in the wilderness, eating by pinching your head. There's no need to go to that point. At least you have to cook it briefly.Of course, the best way to use this type of protein-rich food is to fry it, or stir-fry it with chili peppers to go with wine. However, based on its freezing properties, is the normal processing method acceptable?
If the resting insects among them were accidentally awakened, the entire capital might suffer.So, he chose to give up and asked Zhang Liansheng to take a box to pack the remaining cores, and took half a bottle of elixir to calm his raging stomach.

"When the rebels from the Shenmu Sect are escorted to Beijing, I will interrogate them personally. Some of them should have eaten the Fuso fruit, and there are no information about the disaster. They must know how to deal with it.

Moreover, the original hibiscus tree takes 60 years to bloom and bear fruit, and only two sixty-year-olds can eat it once.The hibiscus tree in Jinzhou is growing too fast, so there must be something wrong with it. "

Eat and drink well and be bored.

Li Shun lamented the lack of entertainment items in ancient times. Without mobile phones, TVs, and computers, he could only play with others, or play with others.

Playing with people loses morality, playing with things loses morale.It just so happens that the emperor has the final authority to interpret morality and law.No wonder there were so many foolish kings in ancient times, they were so easily corrupted!
Li Shun is a person with a bottom line. Although he is a little flexible, he still has it.Every time the concubines came to bed one by one, they never made a mess like some monarchs who like harmony.

He likes the new but never dislikes the old. There are two interpretations of the old, his own and others'.This shows how tolerant his heart is, and a monarch should have such an open mind.Of course, it would be good if this kind of tolerance is "Tang" enough. If he is asked to imitate the tunes of the Han Dynasty emperors, such as Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty, he will never learn it until his death.

"It's time to watch some exciting programs at this point..."

In the Weijia Sea of ​​the Dayin Dynasty, the emperor and monarch Siyi's influence among at least the eighteen surrounding vassal states was unquestionable. Not only did they pay tribute every year, their kings also needed recognition from the court to be considered legitimate.Although the power of Dayin is declining day by day, it is still the great kingdom of heaven in the eyes of those small countries.

In order to preserve the cultural diversity of his country, Li Shun ordered in the fourth year of Shengtong to restore the "servant tribute" policy that had been abolished since the Ruizhong period, that is, subject countries paid tribute to beautiful girls to the emperor.At the same time, certain adjustments were made to the policy, from once a year to once every five years, and an additional requirement was "a royal daughter is required."

It's enough to try some things, but you can't eat them every day!Not the same!
He learned from relevant documents that Ruizong canceled this policy mainly because he disliked the appearance of tribute girls. After the three dynasties of Taizu, Taizong and Gaozong "fished from the lake", the beauties of those subordinate countries became a scarce resource. At that time, I couldn’t stand watching anymore.

Of course, this is not the fault of the emperor alone. As the saying goes: "What is good above will be bad for the people below." In those years, foreign women could be seen everywhere in Dayin's dance halls, and wealthy families even kept them as concubines. Be proud of it.

After so many years of recuperation, Li Shun thought that he should have almost recovered.Don't think this is some kind of bad government. For those women, being able to immigrate to China is a great blessing.

Of course, Li Shun's main purpose is to understand the cultures of various countries and their domestic situations.He included these women in his harem not just for sex, but also formed interest groups for dance and music so that their talents could be fully displayed.

These are things for educated people, don’t think too vulgar.

Li Shun summoned them and watched them perform dance amidst the exotic music.These dances may be enchanting or lively, some pay attention to body language, and some express the overall artistic conception.Let him watch it intently and feel at ease.Among them was Li Fei, who they played hide and seek with during the day and was known as the second favorite concubine of Emperor Shengtong.Her real name is Qianluo Moli, and she comes from the country of Haixi, which is the farthest away from Dayin. She is dressed in white and dances lightly, like a baby swallow in spring shuttling between willow leaves, spinning or jumping, doing various high-level moves. Complete the difficult moves without blinking an eye.

Through them, Li Shun learned many foreign things, such as Dayin was not the only empire in the world.

According to Li Fei, it is said that in the north of Haixi, through a long strait of death, you can reach a fertile continent. On it is a super empire with a land area no less than that of Dayin. The Haixi people call it " Jia Ya Fairy Kingdom".Most of their people have special powers, such as flying with swords and calling for wind and rain.

This legend is 500 years old!
If what Li Fei said is true, Jia Yaxian Kingdom is likely to be a civilization with a country as a unit, and cultivation has developed to a certain extent.Such a country is extremely terrifying for Dayin, a country where people generally don't know what cultivation is.

There is a truth, if you fall behind you will be beaten!

Li Shun didn't believe that all the dynasties in this land had known nothing about this external information for so many years, but why did each dynasty choose to block it?
In this way, they could spend 3000 years in relative peace.The reason why it is said to be 3000 years is because the only clear historical records of this land are more than [-] years ago.

According to the discoveries of ancient ruins in various places, it is proved that there must have been civilizations 3000 years ago, but their records seem to have been artificially erased.

Li Shun learned some fragments from the earliest classics of the Dade Dynasty in history: "In the ancient war, the immortals and gods were destroyed, and the king of men ceased to exist." What is even more strange is that Taizu Dade once specifically left a sentence: "Don't With longevity in mind" to warn future generations.

It seems like the water here is very deep!He couldn't grasp it for the moment.Everything must wait until he regains power and stabilizes the world before he can continue to explore.

After Li Fei finished dancing, the baby swallow threw herself into the forest and threw herself into Li Shun's arms. He couldn't put it down because of her delicate and soft skin.Concubine Li stared at his handsome face with her big watery eyes: "Your Majesty, are you still going to Concubine Yang's place tonight?"

"No, you come to stay with me tonight."

Compared with the tactful and reserved women of Yin State, Li Fei is obviously more proactive and enthusiastic.Li Shun naturally would not refuse a girl who is motivated and motivated. If it weren't for the fact that Concubine Yang was a rare classical beauty and her subtle resistance always stimulated his desire to conquer, she would have been named the number one favorite concubine. It fell on Concubine Li's head.

"I treat you like a treasure, but you treat me like grass."

Because of the undercover problem, Li Shun developed a knot with Concubine Yang and decided to ignore her for a while.Although she was not the only one in the palace at that time, she spoke not loudly, and the palace maids were far away, so it was impossible to hear her, unless someone could read minds or read lips.

Li Shun frowned slightly and thought to himself: "You can't be so bloody, right?"

In the final analysis, his suspicion of Concubine Yang stemmed from the resisting alienation. No matter how intimate the behavior was, it would always be exposed by some small movements, just like the song said: "The movement of taking half a step back" Are you serious? A small action can still hurt so much."

She had never looked directly into his eyes, even when performing the courtesy of Zhou Gong.

One day brings a hundred days of kindness to a couple, and a hundred days of kindness is as deep as the ocean.Three years can't warm your iceberg.Li Shun often had a sense of frustration, and over time, he became sensitive and suspicious.It is the emperor's instinct for everyone in the world to doubt everything.However, Li Shun is willing to give others the greatest tolerance without endangering his own life.

A man's tolerance has a lot to do with his strength.Since ancient times, as long as he is not intellectually disabled or mentally abnormal, being a saintly king and a benevolent ruler is the highest pursuit of an emperor.For the supreme emperor, it is easy to conquer a person's body, but it is a challenge to conquer the heart.

Li Shun likes things with challenges.

However, if it is later found out that she does have evil intentions and is obsessed with it, then there will definitely be no shortage of innocent souls in the cold palace.
