Red Dust Daqian
Chapter 149 Antidote and Wine
The crux of all the problems lies in the antidote for the Huaxi insect. It is imperative that the antidote problem must be solved.
That day, Zhou Sen brought two jars of Shuimuxian wine from Shuimu Hall and came to Zhenyi Medicine Hall. At first, the old Chinese medicine doctor Sun Sizhen didn't like Zhou Sen very much. He directly told Zhou Sen that the antidote for the poisonous insect had not been successfully prepared yet, so there was no need to rush. Once the preparation was successful, he would take the initiative to send someone to deliver the formula. After saying that, he asked the apprentice to send the guest away without waiting for Zhou Sen's reply.
An old Chinese doctor, a capable man, Zhou Sen had something to ask of him, so he chose to be tolerant. Zhou Sen smiled and handed Sun Sizhen two jars of Shuimuxian wine. Before Zhou Sen could introduce it, the old man Sun swallowed his words of sending the guest back after smelling the wine, and scared away the apprentice who was trying to drive the guest away.
I didn't expect that the legendary Sun Sizhen from the Imperial Hospital would be so helpless in the face of fine wine. She didn't even care about her face. She quickly took the Shuimuxianniang handed over by Zhou Sen, smiled and said, "I was fortunate enough to taste Shuimuxianniang once. It's soft and mellow, and has a long aftertaste. Unfortunately, the production is too small. Every time I ask my disciple to buy it, I return empty-handed. It's very disappointing and infuriating. Isn't Shuimutang known as the Half-Day Hall? There is a limited supply per person per day. How can Taoist Zhang have two jars at once?"
The price of Shuimuxianniang is not low now. If it is sold on the black market, the price of two jars of wine will be staggering.
Still without waiting for Zhou Sen to reply, the old Chinese doctor could not wait to open a jar of Shuimuxian wine, carefully poured out a small cup of wine, and tasted it carefully. While tasting the wine, he sighed: I didn't expect that I could taste such a good wine in my lifetime. I am lucky. If I can have such a small cup every day, I will die without regrets.
After tasting the wine, the old Chinese doctor was satisfied, and then he patiently introduced the situation of Huaxi Gu worm to Zhou Sen. The old Chinese doctor sighed that Huaxi Gu worm was the most stubborn Gu worm he had ever seen in his life, and he tried many formulas but failed to effectively kill the Gu worm. Of course, if the dosage is increased, it can still kill the Gu worm, but that dosage is enough to kill the host, which is absolutely not feasible.
After more than a month of research, the current results are at best able to delay the onset of poisonous insects by taking them regularly every month.
Zhou Sen was quite shocked to hear such an achievement. It seemed that the old Chinese doctor was indeed capable. Wasn't the antidote that Sun Sizhen was making the same as the one used by Huaxi Shrine to control its members? It was not a complete cure, but was taken regularly to save lives.
With this antidote, at least the lives of members like Li Qinwei who did not sincerely join the Huaxi Shrine can be guaranteed. Zhou Sen was very happy and asked Sun Sizhen for the antidote formula. The old Chinese doctor did not hide it and wrote it to Zhou Sen without hesitation.
Zhou Sen was so happy that he promised Sun Sizhen that he would give her a jar of Shuimu wine every month. If she could develop an antidote that could completely kill the poisonous insects in the stomach, he would give her two jars every month.
Hearing this, Sun Sizhen was very excited. When giving gifts, you have to cater to the person's preferences. What was the meaning of the gold ingots given last time? Do I look like someone who is short of money? The young man finally got it. For the two jars of Shuimu Xianniang every month, I have to hurry up and prepare the antidote for you.
Now there is at least one jar per month, and two jars can be prepared as antidote, so there is no need to be so stingy with this Shuimu Xian wine. Thinking of this, Sun Sizhen couldn't wait to fill a bowl of wine for herself, and took Zhou Sen to see the poisonous insects she cultivated. Her attitude towards Zhou Sen was a 180-degree turn from before.
Sun Sizhen wanted to demonstrate the effect of the antidote he prepared to Zhou Sen, so he poured the ground antidote into the pile of poisonous insects. After a while, the group of poisonous insects that were running around were no longer excited after touching the antidote. They became quiet, but they did not die. This means that the host will not feel pain.
Just when he was feeling proud, some of the Shuimuxian wine in Sun Sizhen's bowl accidentally spilled into the antidote vessel that had just been poured in. The old Chinese doctor felt sorry that a lot of the wine in the bowl had spilled, and hurriedly licked the wine drops on the wall of the cup. At this moment, Zhou Sen's great image of the old Chinese doctor was gone. What a drunkard, it's just a bowl of Shuimuxian wine, is it that serious?
Unable to bear watching, Zhou Sen turned his eyes away from the old Chinese doctor, and was shocked when he accidentally saw the Huaxi Gu worms sprinkled with Shuimuxian wine. One by one, they squirmed violently, and after a while they turned over and sank to the bottom of the vessel, completely motionless.
Zhou Sen excitedly pulled over the old Chinese doctor who was still licking the Shuimuxian wine and asked him to check the condition of the Gu worm. Sun Sizhen was also quite surprised to see the Huaxi Gu worm turned upside down. This was the first time she had seen such a situation after so many experiments. It might really be dead. After waiting for a while, there was still no movement. The old Chinese doctor picked out the Gu worm with chopsticks and confirmed again and again that the Gu worm was really dead.
It's a miracle. After so many attempts without any results, I succeeded in killing the insect by chance.
Afterwards, Sun Sizhen brought a few more poisonous insects, prepared the antidote, ground them and added wine, but the old Chinese doctor was reluctant to add the Shuimuxian wine, which was too rare. The old man brought all kinds of wine that he had privately collected for many years, but after repeated experiments, he found that only the Shuimuxian wine brought by Zhou Sen was effective when combined with the antidote. Other wines might not be clean enough or strong enough to kill the poisonous insects.
The antidote and the highly-alcoholic Shuimuxian wine, when used together, are the real antidote. By chance, Zhou Sen finally got the complete antidote for the Huaxi Gu worm.
The long-awaited antidote was finally found. After promising two jars of Shuimuxian wine every month, Zhou Sen bid farewell to Sun Sizhen.
He rushed to Shuimu Hall and asked Li Ning'er to inform Li Qinwei that the antidote had been found. They would go to Zhenyi Medicine Hall to test the antidote tomorrow. Li Ning'er was a little bit unbelievable. The Imperial Hospital had not been able to cure this Gu until now. How did Zhou Sen get it? Li Ning'er repeatedly confirmed with Zhou Sen whether it was the antidote for Huaxi Gu. After getting the definite answer, Li Ning'er was overjoyed. She left Shuimu Hall's affairs and handed them over to the shopkeeper to handle. Then she returned to the villa to find Li Qinwei.
In the past, when meeting Li Qi, Li Qinwei and others, they would only have the opportunity to meet the next day. After dealing with the Shuimu Hall affairs, Zhou Sen had just returned to the inn and had not waited for a rest. Panting, Li Qinwei broke into Zhou Sen's bedroom. Without waiting for Zhou Sen to say hello, Li Qinwei couldn't wait to pull Zhou Sen out, wishing to go to the Zhenyi Medicine Hall to test the antidote.
As soon as he got downstairs, he saw Li Ning'er riding a horse towards the inn from afar, looking heroic and surging. Zhou Sen was attracted by this beautiful and heroic scene, as if the world around him was quiet, and at this moment Zhou Sen only had Li Ning'er in his eyes. Zhou Sen finally understood why Xiangcao and Shen Yue'er had a natural liking for Li Ning'er.
He is both extremely handsome and extremely beautiful.
