According to Chinese people's custom, there are only two types of things in the world, edible and inedible. The edible ones can be used as food, while the inedible ones can be used to make medicine first. If they are not used, they can be used for other purposes. The characteristic of purple dragon wood blood is that it can be used both as a delicious seasoning and as a medicinal material to treat diseases and save lives.
Expose the blood of Purple Dragon Wood in the scorching sun, absorb the yang energy of the sun and remove the yin evil toxins, grind the remaining dry cakes into powder, and mix it with meat to make the raw meat soft and ripe in an instant, and the aroma will spread ten miles away. When the beasts smell it, the grazing beasts will want to eat meat and become aggressive.
If you want to use the blood of purple dragon wood as medicine, it is just the opposite. It needs to be soaked in the moonlight to form a paste. It cannot be eaten alone, otherwise it will cause blood vessel obstruction. It must be mixed with black rice powder and white jade walnut powder before it can be used as medicine.
Black rice originates from Nanyang. It was a rare item in the past when traffic was poor. Now it is a common commodity that can be bought in ordinary supermarkets. White jade walnuts are more special. They need to be grown from Zhongnan Mountain with a small dragon pattern that is more than 500 years old. Walnut trees are directly irrigated with melted water from snow-capped mountains. During the season when the white dew is not yet shining and the autumn frost is cold, the fruits with white jade-like skin on the crown of the tree are picked and crushed together with the skin for use as medicine. This thing contains strong toxins, which can be combined with the medicinal properties of purple dragon wood blood. The two have the same potential as water and fire, so black rice is needed to bind it.
This tree is also known as the King of Hell tree. It means that the part of this tree that is usually exposed on the surface is very different from the part that grows underground. It seems to be only half a foot high on the surface, but it is 150 feet underground. If One foot of the earth's surface is exposed, and the underground part is three hundred feet. Doesn’t it mean that he wants to grow up in the Palace of Hell? Therefore, it is also called the Yama tree.
Pi Rixiu said that there are certain things to pay attention to when extracting the blood of Purple Dragon Wood: dig three feet into the ground to get only one coin, you must use gold as a guide tube and nail it into the tree trunk, and a guide tube can only be used once. Take one every three feet, from the surface downwards. The number of times depends on the ability. Taking too much each time will affect the medicinal effect of purple dragon wood blood. Pills made from the blood of Purple Dragon Wood are miraculous in treating blood diseases.
If Pi Rixiu hadn't told these secrets that were exclusive to the Worm Earth Master's portal, who would have imagined that the details were so particular. Li Mu's ambition was awe-inspiring, and the poison in Xiaofen's body had not yet been cured, so he did not dare to violate his will. Immediately order someone to make a golden conduit.
The tunnel has been blocked, and the entire mountain has been classified as a restricted area. They even contacted Diana in Moscow to find connections in the military to do this. When you are on the phone, it is natural to listen to the voice of your precious daughter and care about the mother.
The process of extracting the blood of the Purple Dragon Wood lasted three days, mainly because the tree was so big. It was more than two hundred meters from the surface to the hot mud pool. The opportunity was rare, so of course we had to make the best use of it. Hundreds of golden conduits were made that day. From top to bottom, Li Muye and Lao Cui personally worked under the command of Pi Rixiu to extract more than 200 dollars of purple dragon wood blood.
I also encountered a small problem during the withdrawal process, which is how much is considered a dollar
Money is a unit of weight that has been abandoned for many years.
From the time when the Qin Emperor unified the country and established the rules of weights and measures, until the Republic of China, the Chinese continued to use sixteen liang scales, also called sixteen gold star scales.
It is a scale star composed of the Big Dipper, the South Dipper and the three stars of Fortune, Luxu and Longevity. It warns those who do business to be honest and trustworthy, and do not deceive or deceive. Otherwise, if you are short of one tael, you will not be blessed, if you are short of two taels, you will be short of salary, and if you are short of three Life expectancy is reduced by two.
Yang Hui of the Southern Song Dynasty had a song that said, "The price of a pound turns into two prices": "If you ask for one pound, you will get six or two five pounds; if you ask for two points, you will give up one or two five points; if you ask for three points, you will get one, eight, seven, or five pounds..." This means that one tael is equal to 0.0625 pounds. Two taels is equal to 0.125 kilograms... Based on this calculation, this amount of money is about 3.75 grams. Several small utensils were specially made for this purpose.
In the final calculation, more than 200 meters of purple dragon wood only took out more than 700 grams of purple dragon wood blood. Pi Rixiu divided it into two and gave one part to Li Muye, who used it to dry in the sun to make ingredients and seasonings. He kept the rest for himself to refine medicine. The reason for this arrangement also has deep meaning.
Huo's city that never sleeps is built in an underground cave area with a radius of tens of kilometers. It is extremely vast. With it as the core, the surface area is divided into forest hunting grounds, high-breed pastures, fruit and vegetable shanties, livestock breeding and other areas. Pi Rixiu claimed to have sensed the existence of the wild beast through a secret method, but he did not know where the wild beast was hidden. But he knew that this beast was the most gluttonous, and especially had no immunity to the meat cooked with the blood of Purple Dragon Wood. As long as he smelled the smell, he would follow it regardless of the taste.
His plan required a person to use the methods of a Japanese insect master to pretend to be a cook and break into it. He would first lock the location of the beast and then act accordingly. Of course it would be best if you could steal it without anyone noticing. If not, you have to succeed even if you rob it openly.
Li Muye had no objection to this. As for who to pretend to be the cook and sneak in, there was no need to choose. This matter was confidential. The fewer people who knew about it, the better. How could they find someone else who was irrelevant? Therefore, Brother Xiaoye decided to do it himself.
Before setting off, Pi Rixiu had to give Li Muye a surprise training on some of the fur techniques of the Chongdi Master.
Li Mu's ambition was uncertain, so he made another call to Ye Hong, who was far away in Jinmen and was now quite famous in the famous circle of fame and fortune. The original intention was to ask him how much he knew about the Insect Earth Master. But he didn't expect Ye Hong to know the name Pi Rixiu again, and asked Li Muye, does Li know about Jianghu Wenban? Li Muye understood as soon as he heard it. This Pi Rixiu seemed to be a figure on the Jianghu literary list. Ye Hong added that no, he was ranked relatively high, and he was known to be cruel and ruthless.
Ye Hong also said that the Chongdishi sect is divided into two parts, the sun and the moon. Among them, the sun part mostly uses the identity of a cook as a cover to travel around the world, while the moon part mostly works as a wandering doctor. This Pi Rixiu is a wandering doctor. When he was in Jiangxi, a strange treasure was unearthed. Ye Hong, who was only twelve years old at the time, went to seize the treasure with his Taoist master. As a result, he encountered two insect earth masters and warlocks fighting each other, one from the sun and the other from the moon. , the Worm Earth Master of the Moon Department was a young man in his early twenties, Pi Rixiu.
At that time, Pi Rixiu was fighting with the Japanese insect master. The two were equally capable, but in the end they were defeated because the insect soldiers of the Japanese insect master were slightly superior. Ye Hongyou's master took advantage of it and took away the treasure with his own skills. From then on, he also developed a hatred for the Insect Earth Master clan.
A year later, the Taoist was struck to death by lightning while hunting for treasure in Kunlun. Ye Hong wandered into the rivers and lakes again and joined the Gucaimen among the four gates of Qianmen. When he was in his twenties, he once broke up a game in a Nanyang casino. Suddenly a flash flood broke out, and countless venomous snakes emerged from the mountains and rushed into the casino and bit many people to death. Ye Hong also relied on the protection of Zuo Sanjinghuo and Lu Yuan's desperate protection to escape the disaster. Later, through rumors in the world, I found out that it was Pi Rixiu who had done this.
At that time, Pi Rixiu was already a well-known figure on the literary list.
Ye Hong also reminded Li Muye that this person was known to be ruthless and ruthless, so you must be careful when working with him and never believe everything he says. And he proposed to bring Chunyu Bingbing to help him.
Li Muye refused flatly and persuaded her earnestly on the phone: "Today is different from the past. Your status is different now. You have finally established a foothold in the wealthy circle. You can't get involved in the ruthless world anymore. The group needs it." You are now a grand master of metaphysics who is as open-minded as ever and is sure to hit the mark, instead of the swashbuckler who always fought with others. Sister Bingbing will be pointing at you for the rest of her life."
When Chunyu Bingbing was mentioned, Ye Hong was silent for a while and finally stopped insisting. He just sighed and said: "This woman is a burden, but she can't be successful if she leaves. How many heroic ambitions have turned into heroes and shortness of breath are all because of women."
The sun gradually sets on the mountainside, and the shadow of the mountain gradually becomes vaster. The sky is vast, covering this endless prairie. In the wind, there are the sounds of sheep howling, cows roaring, and horses neighing, intertwined together, and mixed into an ancient and desolate song. Li Muye Carrying my luggage, I walked to the plateau in the direction of the sound. Looking over, I could see sheep passing by like white clouds, cattle marching slowly, and horses galloping like thunder towards the smoke of herders' homes in the distance.
This is a magnificent picture of heaven and earth! This is a desolate and distant elegy composed by life.
The sky is clear, the fields are vast, the grass is blown by the wind and cattle and sheep can be seen, and occasionally girls can be seen.
A girl was riding a horse, holding a plump big cat with shiny fur in her arms, galloping over the plateau. Before he even got close, he threw off his stirrup and ignored the big cat in his arms. When he passed by, he suddenly jumped off the horse and threw himself into Li Muye's arms.
The aroma of kumiss mixed with the girl's urban atmosphere made little Ulanzhu look particularly bright.
"Come down quickly, you are such a big man, you can't act like this."
"Isn't it said that we should get along as brothers and sisters? I am your biological sister, what does it matter if I hug you? I also want to kiss you." Wu Lanzhu said that he was about to get serious.
Li Muye had no choice but to hold her horizontally. Wu Lanzhu proudly put his arm around Li Muye's neck and said, "Come on, my mother has been preparing since the morning and has made a lot of delicious food. Remember to eat and drink more, otherwise my two sisters-in-law will entertain you well tonight."
"What do you mean?" Li Muye looked at her in surprise.
Wulanzhu chuckled and said: "Just let my two sisters-in-law sleep with you. There are few people here, and the men have gone out to make a living. The population base is insufficient, and more and more close relatives are getting married, so as long as Every man outside has to find a way to save seeds to optimize the population."
"Are you kidding me, or are you serious?"
"What do you think?" Wu Lanzhu pinched Li Muye's nose playfully and said with a smile, "You threw yourself into a trap and brought this to your doorstep."
The horse turned around and came back again. Wulanzhu jumped up with a vigorous leap, stretched out his hand to pull Li Muye, and the two rode together and galloped away to the yurt in the distance.
"Brother, let me be your woman." She suddenly turned around and sang: "The little ewe will raise its tail when it grows up, the eagle in the sky will lose its yellow beak and will lay eggs, why is the male toad in the pond Holding my arms around the mother toad's waist, my sister's heart is only thinking of you... "
"Stop being ridiculous and let your sister-in-law know later. Be careful that she doesn't let you go back to Shanghai."
"I'm just singing, what's the nonsense?" Wu Lanzhu's face turned slightly red, and she sang excitedly in Mongolian: "I will never go back to that big city again. This is my hometown, a child in the flag. We need me, my mother at home can’t bear to leave me, and my brothers sing love songs to me every day, but I just want to leave the best to you.”
"You don't plan to go back to Shanghai?" Li Muye was very surprised.
Wulanzhu nodded seriously and said: "Yes, I never want to go back. Our Borzigit family is almost dying of poverty. I have learned a lot now. It's time to come back and change this place." Holding hands. Li Muye's neck jumped lightly and he sat on the man's lap, saying: "My good brother, my sister was killed by Qi Tian and fed to dogs. We, the Borzigit clan, have long been at odds with their begging tribe. When I come back after learning my skills outside, of course I have to lead my tribe to deal with their brothers."
It seems to be true. Li Muye suddenly felt sad. In a flash, the little she-wolf who was fourteen or fifteen years old at the time was now a twenty-two or thirty-year-old girl. It can even bear the burden of a tribe.
"Brother, doesn't he want us to help him get on the line with Qitian without exposing his identity?" Wu Lanzhu said with a smile: "The condition is to keep the seeds. I or my sisters-in-law, as long as you stay here for a month, no one else can You don’t have to worry about it.” (End of Chapter)
