I travel through the heavens as a human being

Chapter 131 The Mystery of the Acupoints
There was deathly silence in Wenyuan Pavilion.

Following Xu Yang's words, the scolding civil servant turned around and walked out of Wenyuan Pavilion, and kept walking forward with dull eyes, like a walking zombie that had lost its soul.

Such a strange scene shocked everyone in the pavilion, especially the personal eunuch who was right next to him and witnessed all the details of the matter. He was also shocked by Xu Yang's words. This method shocked him and left him speechless for a moment.

"Demon... witchcraft!"

As a trembling and fearful voice came out, if you listened carefully, you could hear some teeth clashing sounds.

As soon as this sound came out, the frightened people in the pavilion barely came back to their senses.

Pfft!
A muffled sound came, and it was the civil servant who made the sound. At this time, he could no longer bear the fear in his heart, his feet gave way, and Tan Zuo was on the ground.

His colleagues next to him, two groups of people helped him to prevent him from completely collapsing to the ground. Of course, they helped him stand up. It is difficult to do it now. This man's legs are as weak as two noodles. , unable to support the weight of the upper body at all.

After Xu Yang heard this man's slander, and when other civil servants looked at him with fear, he sneered in his heart, and then sneered with disdain:
"Hmph! Pedantic! Cowardly and cowardly people!"

Before those civil servants could show their anger, Xu Yang turned his head again and said to the eunuch next to him:

"I still need to stay in Wenyuan Pavilion for a few days, and I don't want anyone to disturb me during this period."

"The miscellaneous know."

Facing Xu Yang's order, the personal eunuch immediately nodded in agreement, and then waved to the eunuchs who came with him without waiting for the reaction of the civil servants.

When several eunuchs came forward, they dragged the civil servants out of the pavilion.

At this time, those civil servants also completely regained their consciousness. Naturally, they were unwilling to be kicked out of Wenyuan Pavilion and started making noises one after another.

"Bold! Let me go yet! Let me go!"

"Demon! I must intervene with you in front of His Majesty!"

"I am an official of the imperial court, how dare you touch me, eunuch!"

······
The clamor of the civil servants instantly made the originally quiet Wenyuan Pavilion noisy, and seriously affected Xu Yang's mood.

Xu Yang frowned and controlled his momentum to press hard towards the clamoring civil servants.

At this time, Xu Yang was able to control his momentum very well. After finding the target, he would never affect the people next to him.

So the eunuchs who dragged the civil servants didn't feel anything, but those civil servants were in bad luck.

In an instant, the Wenyuan Pavilion became quiet again, and you could even hear a pin drop.

As for the civil servants who were still screaming before, they were like cocks being grabbed by the neck, their words were stuck in their throats and they couldn't come out.

After the momentum came, their minds went blank, their eyes widened, revealing endless panic, their faces were pale, and there was a lot of cold sweat oozing out, their buttocks were trembling, and they could only feel their legs He was so weak that if it weren't for the support of the eunuchs on both sides, he might not be able to stand firmly.

At this moment, they were suppressed by Xu Yang's momentum, as if facing a natural enemy. If Xu Yang transformed into the top predatory beast in nature, then they became lambs to be slaughtered.

In front of such ferocious beasts, they were helpless and couldn't even think of escaping.

Without the struggling and shouting of these civil servants, the eunuchs easily dragged these frightened civil servants away from Wenyuan Pavilion.

The eunuch who was standing in front of Xu Yang lowered his head with an inexplicable look in his eyes when he saw Xu Yang displaying such a miraculous method. He didn't know what he was thinking.

"The troublesome person is gone. Does your Majesty have time now?"

When Xu Yang's words came, the personal eunuch suddenly came back to his senses, and some of his little thoughts were restrained, and he quickly responded:
"Your Majesty has now moved to the Leopard Room to rest."

"Let's go then. I should hand over those things I promised last night to His Majesty."

After Xu Yang stood up, he picked up the three secret booklets on the desk that had been written based on his past memories, and walked out of Wenyuan Pavilion.

Seeing this, the personal eunuch hurriedly trotted to follow, leading the way for Xu Yang.

At this time, Xu Yang had his personal eunuch leading the way. It was very easy to see Zhu Houzhao. He stood outside the leopard room and was led in without waiting long.

"Okay! Okay! The national teacher is a great talent!"

Zhu Houzhao's admiration came from the Leopard Room, making all the eunuchs outside confused.

Looking at the three secret books given to him by Xu Yang, Zhu Houzhao was beaming with joy, losing his dignified image of an emperor at all.

He originally thought that Xu Yang's so-called three secret laws were just mediocre, that is to say, they only sounded nice. They were Xu Yang's excuse to prevent him from becoming a national master.

But he didn't expect Xu Yang to give him such a big surprise.

Although he has not yet made a final determination on these three secret methods, the first salt-drying method, judging from his life experience, is definitely feasible. For this alone, the position of national master is worth it. , Salt is hugely profitable, he knows it all too well.

Zhu Houzhao is not an uneducated person. Although his behavior is absurd, it is just due to his personality. To be honest, his IQ is still very high.

And having been the emperor for so many years, he also had a unique vision, and he recognized the value of the three secret books given to him by Xu Yang at a glance.

If the above records are true, then relying on these three secret methods, as long as they are operated well, Ming Dynasty's national power can definitely be raised to a higher level.

Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao began to calculate in his mind that these three secret methods could not completely fall into his pocket. Among them, the salt-drying method and the blast furnace iron-making method had to be handed over to the imperial court. After all, the imperial court controlled the benefits of salt and iron.

As for the transparent glass method, it must be returned to the royal family. As long as it is operated well, then his internal treasury will not be short of money.

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao completely divided the court and the emperor into two independent aspects, separating the national treasury and the inner treasury.

After all, although the emperor claims to be the Nine-Five Supreme, the highest being in the world, he still has to retreat when faced with the alliance of ministers.

And what can make all ministers join forces?Benefit!Absolutely huge benefits!
The benefits of salt and iron were absolutely huge benefits, enough to make all the ministers join forces. Therefore, Zhu Houzhao either hid these two secrets and kept them secret from others, or released them and brought them back to the court to allow the ministers to participate.

Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao is not that short-sighted and will not do anything that harms others and does not benefit himself. Although the benefits of salt and iron will be greedy, as long as it is managed well, it will be the court that will benefit, and ultimately he, the emperor.

Facing Xu Yang who gave him three secret books and saved his life, Zhu Houzhao felt for a moment that just being a national master was too shabby. He, Zhu Houzhao, was not a person who did not repay his kindness. .

After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't figure out what kind of reward I should give Xu Yang, so I simply asked Xu Yang bluntly:

"The imperial master has made great contributions to the imperial court by presenting secret techniques. I wonder what the imperial master still lacks?" "Reporting to your majesty, Xu does not love fame and wealth, but he has a soft spot for ancient books and martial arts scriptures from past dynasties."

Faced with Zhu Houzhao's inquiry, Xu Yang didn't speak loudly. He just hoped to get some martial arts secrets from the court.

After all, the imperial court that occupies the world has an innate advantage in this regard.

"In this case, Wenyuan Pavilion has been opened to the imperial masters. There are ancient books from past dynasties there, but the martial arts scriptures are stored elsewhere."

After listening to Xu Yang's needs, Zhu Houzhao touched his chin with one hand and seemed to be talking to himself. Then he suddenly turned to look at the personal eunuch waiting next to him and ordered:
"Daban, go and get a gold medal, and send someone to the arsenal to say that from now on, the Ouchi arsenal will be open to national masters."

"As ordered." The personal eunuch agreed, then turned around and arranged for people to do things.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

It was an unexpected surprise. Xu Yang was very happy to see Zhu Houzhao agreeing so readily. He did not ask for any peerless magic skills in the large inner arsenal, as long as there were enough low-level martial arts in it, he would be satisfied.

Low-level martial arts is the foundation for the rise of tall buildings from the ground, and it has a great reference effect on his creation of martial arts.

In order to repay Zhu Houzhao's generosity, Xu Yang also felt that he should do something.

"Does Your Majesty have any heirs?"

At this time, when he suddenly heard Xu Yang's question, Zhu Houzhao's face, which was still full of joy, instantly turned gloomy. So far, there is no son and a half who can be said to be his pain point. Xu Yang asked him like this, which is undoubtedly Adding salt to his wounds and inserting knives into him.

For this matter, he also sought treatment from many imperial doctors, but unfortunately all of them were of no use.

But he still has to blame himself for this. He was too ridiculous in his youth, which caused him to have physical problems and no heirs.

If he hadn't been in his prime now, the courtiers might have started another dispute over this.

At this moment, Xu Yang brought up old things again and exposed his scars. How could he be happy? Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao had a good temper. Even when asked like this by Xu Yang, he did not get angry immediately.

When he saw the vague smile on Xu Yang's face, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he asked with a sincere and eager look:
"To be honest, I don't have any heirs yet, so I don't know if the Imperial Master can do anything about it."

"Have."

Xu Yang didn't show off, he just nodded and admitted.When Zhu Houzhao on the opposite side saw Xu Yang nodding, his face was full of excitement. He immediately ignored the imperial dignity and came to Xu Yang in two big steps. He cupped his fists and said in a trembling voice:
"Please also ask the National Master to show his skill, I will not hesitate to give you a generous gift!"

"Your Majesty, you're welcome. Allow me to check it out for you."

"it is good."

After saying that, the two found a table and chairs to sit down and began to examine the patient carefully.

During this period, the personal eunuch who was out on errands also came back. When he saw the appearance of the two of them, he did not dare to come forward and disturb them. Instead, he stood aside and was at his service at any time.

In fact, Xu Yang's diagnosis and treatment this time was just a show. The last time he diagnosed and treated Zhu Houzhao's inflammation, Xu Yang already knew about Zhu Houzhao's physical condition.

The reason why Zhu Houzhao had no heirs was also found. In addition to the root causes of his previous illnesses, there was also the fact that Zhu Houzhao was poisoned, and it was also heavy metal poisoning.

If these two aspects are not resolved, Zhu Houzhao will never have an heir.

This matter is difficult for other doctors, even if a doctor with the same medical level as Xu Yang comes, it is quite difficult.

But Xu Yang was not only a master of medicine, but also had great strength. With the cooperation of the two, he was able to cure Zhu Houzhao's heirless disease with ease.

Xu Yang first used his most refined and pure internal power to gather the heavy metals in Zhu Houzhao's body together, and then forced them out.

Zhu Houzhao said "Wow" and spit out a ball of dark blood on the blanket on the ground.

After seeing Zhu Houzhao vomiting blood, the personal eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to support him. He was also knowledgeable and knew that Xu Yang was using his energy to treat Zhu Houzhao, so he did not yell.

After Zhu Houzhao spit out the mouthful of dirty blood, he felt refreshed. After rinsing his mouth with the tea handed to him by the personal eunuch, he thanked Xu Yang.

Later, Xu Yang prescribed prescriptions for Zhu Houzhao to treat the root causes of his childhood illness.

After much trouble, it was already noon, and Zhu Houzhao invited Xu Yang to have lunch together, to which Xu Yang readily agreed.

Zhu Houzhao is not an emperor who pays much attention to rules, especially at the dinner table. There are not so many rules and he can do whatever he feels comfortable with. That's why Xu Yang just agreed. Otherwise, if he was so particular about it, Xu Yang would Yang didn't want to have lunch with him, even if he were an emperor.

Just when the food was served, Xu Yang stretched out his hand and used a self-developed technique similar to the skill of capturing a dragon and controlling a crane to grab a golden bowl in front of Zhu Houzhao from the air.

Although Zhu Houzhao was shocked by the sudden change, he didn't have much fear. He believed that the imperial master would not harm him. He must have a purpose in taking the golden bowl now.

Looking at the exquisite golden bowl in front of him, Xu Yang tapped it, then stretched out his hand to break off half of it and twisted it hard.

After a moment, Xu Yang sneered and gestured to Zhu Houzhao:

"It really took no effort. Your Majesty, the method that caused you to be poisoned and have no heirs was found. This golden bowl is not made of pure gold, but has a layer of mercury gilding on the surface."

"mercury?"

After Zhu Houzhao heard Xu Yang's words, he was stunned for a moment. He knew about mercury, but in this era, he didn't know the toxicity of mercury.

When Xu Yang saw Zhu Houzhao's confused expression, he explained to him:
"Mercury is poisonous, and it is highly poisonous. If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can feed mercury to chickens."

Seeing what Xu Yang said so solemnly, and it was related to his own heirlessness, Zhu Houzhao did not dare to ignore it, and immediately shouted to the personal eunuch:
"Partner!"

"The old slave knows."

The personal eunuch hurried out of the house, not knowing whether to do an experiment, to investigate the origin of the golden bowl, or both at the same time.

Then Zhu Houzhao and Xu Yang ate together from ordinary porcelain bowls.

After finishing lunch, Xu Yang mentioned to Zhu Houzhao that he would leave the capital and return to the Huashan Sect in five days.

Now that Xu Yang has opened up and strengthened the meridians throughout his body, the next stage is to study the human body's acupoints, and he feels that this may be related to the transformation of silkworms.

This is also the reason why Xu Yang gave up the countless collections of classics in the palace and returned to Huashan.
