Chapter 55 Taking lead and eating mercury
Old Yutou was enjoying himself, and touched the body of the female Taoist in front of him, causing the other party to gasp and whisper: "I hate it!"

He chuckled, and answered Yu Lie: "Yes, forging bone pills."

Old Yutou showed a pity expression on his face: "It's a pity, even with the assistance of the bone forging pill, if you want to complete the transformation of copper and iron bones, you still have to roast yourself in the stove, like a roast duck and roast suckling pig." Like. Forging bone pills can also avoid the subsequent step of skinning and pouring bones."

"Brother is an old bone, it's unbearable, no blessing to enjoy!" The other party said in a rambling manner.

Yu Lie felt something was wrong when he heard the other party utter the words "Jiangguwan". Now that he heard the other party say that "Zengguwan" can avoid the step of "splashing oil on the bones", he suddenly couldn't lie down.

Suppressing his mind, Yu Lie looked weird, and said, "The Bone Forging Pill that Mr. Yu talked about, but those medicines for tigers and wolves that burn bones and consume marrow?"

In fact, Yu Lie is not unaware that there are shortcuts and easy methods for the transformation of "copper tendons and iron bones".

For example, taking Mafeisan, strong alcohol, etc., first losing the mind, and then asking other people to help with the surgery is a big and easy way.

It's just that this method is not very safe. Depending on the technique of the surgeon, the effect of the transformation is also different, and it will hinder Daotong's digestion and absorption in the future.

As for being able to completely avoid surgery, Yu Lie had vaguely heard about it, but he also remembered that it was a method of evil spirits and heretics, which would damage the bones of Taoists, so he didn't understand it carefully.

Hearing Yu Lie mention the "medicine for tigers and wolves", Old Yutou opened his eyes suddenly, and the other party sat up in a hurry, staring at Yu Lie's body.

Yu Lie's expression was surprised by Lao Yutou's action.

Old Yu looked at Yu Lie carefully for a few times, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Brother Yu, what you said made me almost think that you were tricked by someone and took that tiger wolf bone forging pill." .It’s okay, it’s okay, look at your body is full, your blood is strong, you don’t feel stiff, and you don’t look like you’ve run out of oil, and you shouldn’t have any.”

What the other party said made Yu Lie even more suspicious, and at the same time slightly warmed up.

Before Yu could make a sound, Lao Yu lay down again and turned his head over.

The other party muttered: "It's not Zhuangu Wan, maybe it's a medicine like Hutai Yijin Wan? That's right, brother Yu is from a family anyway, there must be such a good medicine in the clan, Zhuanggu Wan is inferior after all. It's..."

Under Yu Lie's insinuations, Lao Yutou introduced a lot while enjoying the massage.

It turned out that the Bone Forging Pill that the other party was talking about belonged to the kind of medicine known to Yu Lie to burn bones and consume marrow, but the harm did not reach the level of tiger wolf medicine.

In the transformation of "bronze tendons and iron bones", the official Taoist books record that the skin and bones must be peeled off, but because this step is too painful, even with the method of anesthetics, many Taoists still endure it. no.

So the Taoists have devised a way to completely avoid the process of "skinning and pouring bones", which is to take pills made of lead and mercury, and through the circulation of blood and energy, the medicine will dissolve and the lead and mercury metal will sink into the human body Day by day, the Taoist's muscles and bones are as strong as copper and iron.

After taking it, the Taoist roasted the flesh again, which can be regarded as the completion of the transformation of copper tendons and iron bones.

This method is much simpler than that used by Yu Lie, especially for the Taoist boys in Heishui Town, it is more convenient to start with. Therefore, in Heishui Town, almost [-]% of the median Taoist boys are The method adopted is promoted.

It's just that such things as forging bone pills are forbidden to be sold in government-run alchemy rooms, and can only be sold in the black market in the black street, and there are still many hidden pits.

Because the Bone Forging Pill is a lead-mercury medicine taken internally, no matter how good the refiner's technique is, no matter how nicely the other party says it, this pill is still a heavy metal pill after all.

However, the internal organs of Taoist boys are still fragile, and even spirit stones cannot be taken internally, they can only be applied externally. They take poisonous heavy metals such as lead, mercury and quartz, which cannot be digested or excreted from the body.

Take Yu Lie as an example, even though he practiced poisoning kung fu, before his poisoning kung fu was perfected, he would still end up with a shortened lifespan, aging of internal organs, and poisoning of six internal organs if he took lead and mercury elixir.

For the rest of the Daoist boys, the degree is even more serious, and it will even leave behind troubles that cannot be solved for life.

Yu Lie listened carefully, the strange look on his face gradually disappeared, and he said in his heart: "It's okay, it's okay."

After listening to what Old Yutou said, he immediately dismissed the so-called "Bone Forging Pill".

Of course, Yu Lie was even more fortunate that he didn't suffer in vain, and his transformation was not just asking for trouble.

Otherwise, he probably would have cried a lot.

On the side, Old Yutou was also a little puzzled by Yu Lie's insinuation, but after thinking about it, he chose to ignore it, and continued to tsk-tsk:
"In the town, there are still people being tricked. These people are greedy for cheap. Even if they are promoted, let alone whether their strength has increased or not, they still have to spend a lot of money every month to buy inferior bone-forging pills from others... …It will die slowly if you eat it, and it will die quickly if you don’t eat it. From time to time, it will itch inside the bones, and the pain is too painful. My life and wealth are all in the hands of others.”

The kind of situation that Old Yutou said is just the inferior goods in the bone-forging medicine. This kind of extremely burns the bone and consumes the marrow, and is a violent poison!
However, no matter how good the bone-forging elixir is, the lead and mercury content in each pill is low, and the course of treatment before transformation should be as long as possible, and it is assisted by vegetation, flesh and blood, and even beast medicinal materials. Minimize damage to internal organs.

Taking this kind of good medicine will still reduce the life expectancy by 20 years, and it will also reduce the probability of being promoted to the eighth rank Taoist.

Yu Lie also suddenly understood at this time.Why is it that the ninth-rank Taoist boys are obviously cultivators, but each of them has a short lifespan, and they lose their lives at every turn, and die prematurely.

Perhaps the root cause lies in drugs such as "Jianggu Wan", eager for quick success and quick benefit, can't bear the pain.

Yu Lie said silently in his heart: "Shortcut, it's really easy to take and uncomfortable."

Taking anesthetics and asking someone to have an operation will at most delay digestion and weaken the body, while taking lead and mercury medicines is drinking poison to quench thirst, destroying the foundation of oneself, and leaving an endless legacy.

It's just that in the town, if there are more people doing it, it becomes normal.

After all, everyone is a short-lived ghost of the lower ninth rank, who can laugh at whom?

In the tea room, Old Yutou muttered in a timely manner: "I don't know what kind of ruthless person or honest person will really torture himself according to the Taoist scriptures."

The other party sucked his teeth and shook his body: "Brother Yu, remember! Don't mess with this kind of person, you have to try to go around as much as possible."

Yu Lie nodded and turned his face.

He enjoyed the soft kneading on his back with peace of mind, and casually replied: "Yes, don't mess with it."

Just in the tea room, the two chatted and enjoyed each other, and the relationship became more and more harmonious.

After a massage, Yu Lie seemed to have opened up a new world.

He found that using massage, moxibustion and other techniques to activate muscles and bones is really comfortable and effective. It can greatly relieve physical fatigue and improve the quality of exercises.

Especially since he had just completed the transformation of copper tendons and iron bones, the effect of the massage was immediate. A meal served by a female priest was more effective than Yu Lie resting at home for two or three days.

It's no wonder that Lao Yutou specially brought him here to enjoy today.

Poor Yu Lie used to just help people massage, but now he really enjoyed it for a while, which made him suddenly feel that he had lost money before, and lost a lot...

Half a day's work has passed.

In the afternoon, Yu Lie and Lao Yutou wandered out of the tea room.

The former is full of energy and has a lot of aftertaste, while the latter presses his waist and keeps chanting: "Restraint, restraint."

When Yu Lie heard this, he smiled and said immediately, "Very good! Then, Mr. Yu, why don't you give me the VIP sign here!"

Today's enjoyment, Yu Lie failed to pay for it.Because Lao Yutou has been enjoying tea in the tea room all year round, he is already a senior customer. The other party not only knows the girls in the tea room like the back of the back of his hand, but if he has a license to consume, he can get a [-]% discount, which is very cheap.

Hearing that Yu Lie was begging for a sign, Old Yu didn't cover his head and waist, and immediately stepped out in a vigorous manner, waved at Yu Lie and said:
"Brother Yu, my brother has to go to work, so I'm leaving!"

Yu Lie laughed dumbfounded, shook his head, turned around, and walked in another direction.

After enjoying it, he still has to go to the Library Pavilion to receive the second layer of "Five Poisons Refining Viscera Guidance Technique" and new benefits.
