Early Tang Dynasty Concubine

Chapter 210 Five Stone Powder

The so-called "five stone powder" is a traditional Chinese medicine powder.Its main components are stalactite, amethyst, white quartz, stone sulfur, red stone fat, and some auxiliary materials.

It is said that this powder was invented by Zhang Zhongjing. Zhang Zhongjing invented this prescription for patients with typhoid fever, because this powder is dry and hot in nature, and it has some benefits for patients with typhoid fever.But in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the scholars in the upper class did not have typhoid fever, and they all began to eat generals.There have been some adjustments to the formula and Zhang Zhongjing's original prescription at this time, but the main ingredients have not changed.

After taking this medicine into the stomach, it is very troublesome to carefully regulate it.First of all, after taking the powder, you must not lie still, but walk.Therefore, celebrities in the Wei and Jin Dynasties like to take a walk the most, which is called "walking". In fact, this is not because they especially like to exercise, but because they are lazy and lie down and their lives will be lost.In addition to walking, you should also pay special attention to your diet and clothing.After taking it, the whole body has a fever, and then becomes cold, and the symptoms are quite similar to mild malaria.But if they eat hot food and wear thick clothes when they are cold, they must die.Be sure to wear thin clothes, eat cold food, and pour your body with cold water.Therefore, Wushi powder is also called "cold food powder".According to the book, it is ""cold clothes, cold drink, cold food, cold bed, cold is better". If you get pneumonia from freezing, that's because you let it out.

But there is one exception, that is, alcohol.Be sure to drink hot wine, and the wine must be good and mellow.Wushisan is very picky about wine, not to mention wine mixed with methanol, even ordinary bad wine, it will also have a strong reaction.And after taking it, you still have to eat, you must eat a lot, "you can't get tired of eating too much".

In short, after eating, you must take a walk, eat a lot of cold food, drink hot wine, wear thin clothes, and take a cold bath.

Taking medicine is so troublesome and dangerous, but why did it become popular in the upper class of the Jin Dynasty?Afterwards, the popularity of Wushisan in the upper class was no less than that of opium in the late Qing Dynasty.Only because of the expensiveness of Wushi powder itself and the cumbersome preparation, it has not penetrated into the folks.This is also the virtue of the ancestors of the people of the Jin Dynasty, so they were spared this catastrophe.The popularity of Wushi San naturally has its reasons.After taking Wushi powder, it does produce a wonderful reaction to people.

First of all, Wushisan has a function similar to ecstasy.After taking the medicine, the human body suddenly becomes cold and hot, and the body does temporarily fall into an inexplicable pain, but the spirit can enter a state of trance and selflessness.Worldly troubles and inner confusion can all be forgotten, and what remains is an extraordinary feeling.At such a moment, you can take "the heaven and the earth as one dynasty, ten thousand periods as a moment, the sun and the moon as a bureau, and the eight wastelands as a court", and don't pay attention to anything, nothing is worthy of restraining yourself, only an inflated self-awareness , whatever you want.In short, it is a bit similar to being drunk. It may be different physically from being drunk, but it is also mental anesthesia.

People in this mental state are more or less tolerant.I said some outrageous words and did some outrageous things, and they were all forgiven.What is more true than a confused person?Of course, some people may protest, saying: "How do you know that this is confusion? How do you know that your daily life is not confusion, but you are sober at this moment?" For such a philosophical question, I can only suggest that the questioner move himself. Get started, take a dose and eat to see if you are confused or awake.

According to the opinions of the people at that time, Wushi Powder could not only play the role of ecstasy, but also a treasure medicine for prolonging life.Qin Chengzu, a famous doctor in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, once spoke highly of Wushisan, saying that it is "the essence of production and the leader of the group". Although it can't fly through the clouds and reborn after eating it, it can indeed prolong life and have great effects.Song Shang, another doctor in the Western Jin Dynasty, even asserted that Wushi San can cure all diseases, and it is really something like a elixir.After hearing his words, Huangfu Mi, who was naked and eating ice, would definitely be furious and demanded that he be punished for the crime of lying and deceiving people.

This veteran actually gave himself "five stone powder"!Cheng Churui is not a fool, maybe it's because he belongs to time traveler, maybe it's because of his physical problem, in short, he does have a lot of resistance.

"Yuan Tiangang! You fucking wait for me. If you dare to drug me, I will let you know the fate of offending me. Don't regret what happened today. Zhang Long Zhao Hu!"

Cheng Churui shouted violently, and two big men rushed in from the outer room. Seeing Cheng Churui's swaying appearance and Cheng Churui's current state, he knew something was wrong. Immediately, one of them supported Cheng Churui, and the other stood in front of Cheng Churui. The knife was already in his hand. hands.

"Prince Cheng, I think this is a misunderstanding!" Yuan Tiangang didn't expect Cheng Churui to wake up so quickly, nor did he think Cheng Churui would react like this.

"Okay! I'll take it as a beautiful misunderstanding, but I'll give you back a huge and beautiful misunderstanding. I'll let you know what kind of tricks a person who has been to a fairyland will have. Old Yuan, let's ride a donkey Read the libretto and wait and see!"

This time Cheng Churui really became angry. He has been in Datang for more than a year, and it will be two years after calculation. He has been tricked, fought, and pissed off, but he has never been so angry.Now he is really angry, he doesn't know what the other party means, whether it is intentional or not, in short, even if the enemy and Liang Zi are held up, the most important thing is that he doesn't believe that he, a modern person, can't kill him, an ancient person.

"Take me back right away!" Cheng Churui felt weak and a little hot, but he didn't care about that, it was still early spring, the weather was very cold, and it was the time when people could not freeze water.Cheng Churui felt that he was getting hot from the inside.He took off his clothes and was shirtless.

"Yes!" The two also knew that something was wrong. At this time, Cheng Churui and Zhang Long were riding on the same horse, and his own Xiao Hei ran after him. Cheng Churui still had a feeling that he didn't know whether he was hallucinating or real.He didn't want to affect his judgment, and his leg was bleeding all over the floor!
"This kid has such strong willpower! He reacts very quickly, and the most important thing is to be ruthless! He is a person who must take revenge. I have been in a strange family for so many years, and he is the first person I can't see through. Maybe we The Taoist sect is really going to face a catastrophe!" Yuan Tiangang left Cheng Churui, looked at the blood on the ground, and saw Cheng Churui with a small knife stuck in his leg.

He hasn't figured out why until now, but it's just auspicious!He felt that he wanted to redeem himself, he wanted to enter the palace!

Cheng Churui was brought back to Zhuangzi by Zhang Long and Zhao Hu. Cheng Churui said that no one should enter his study for a while, and Li Xiuning should not be notified yet...
