Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 586 Things in Xianyang ()

Gu Xun returned home with a bucket full of fish.

In his meeting with Concubine Yan, he was not able to achieve the most satisfactory result, but he gained enough. At least he had a thorough understanding of the medicine, and the rest was spent on research.

Anyway, Ying Zheng had already prescribed the medicine, so there was no need to rush to take it from the Yin Yang family.

Gu Xun felt that he was really busy back in Xianyang. Ying Zheng, Fu Su, the imperial physician, Yan Fei... In just one day and one night, he had already found four people in turn, and he had to continue.

Alas, life is not easy. Concubine Yan even said that I was lazy. This is obviously the life of a model worker!

………………

It was night in the lobby of the medical clinic. Gu Xun rarely went back to his room to sleep early. Instead, he lit a lot of candles, illuminating the whole room brightly. He himself was studying the Yin Yang family's medicine on his table. .

He started after coming back in the afternoon, and never left except for dinner. Unfortunately, despite his efforts, like Huangshan and the others, he got nothing.

He has identified most of the ingredients of the medicinal materials, but it is really impossible to find out what the ingredients are for such a small part.

He didn't know if Huangshan and others could distinguish more parts than he did, but it didn't matter, as long as there were some parts that couldn't be distinguished, it would still be the same.

"Shopkeeper, after so long of research, have you got a clue?" Yan Lingji moved a chair, put one arm on the back of the chair, crossed her legs, revealing a large area of ​​white and smooth skin, and sat down loosely. Watching the fun.

Gu Xun put down what he was holding and shook his head, "No, and it's impossible to research it in a short time."

"Is this medicine so powerful that you can't even understand it?" Yan Lingji couldn't help but curiously leaned forward after hearing this. She opened her eyes and carefully browsed the messy things on the table, trying to figure out what was going on. What comes.

"If you don't understand medicinal materials, you just don't understand. There is no other way." Gu Xun, who had no professional skills and was embarrassed by being questioned, replied seriously, "The Yin Yang family should have used some medicinal materials that I don't understand." , and after the medicinal properties are combined and refined, the properties are no longer apparent and cannot be distinguished. If you don’t understand this part of the medicinal materials, it will be useless to anyone.”

At the end, Gu Xun also praised the Yin Yang family, "But I have to admit that the alchemy skills of the Yin Yang family are quite mysterious."

Yan Lingji took her arms off the back of the chair, crossed one hand across her chest, and put the other hand on her horizontal arm to support her head, and asked doubtfully, "Is your doctor's medicine... difficult to make?" Is it different from Yin Yang’s medicine?”

She doesn't quite understand how there is a difference. Isn't it the process of refining herbal medicine?

Gu Xun smiled and shook his head, "Haha, of course it's different. The alchemy of the Yin Yang family... in fact, the real and accurate name should be alchemy."

"Although the refining of medicine by doctors is the same as the combination and balance of yin and yang and the five elements, doctors only rely on refining techniques and the nature of medicinal materials to complete this process, while the yin and yang family's techniques and processes are more complicated, not only in The choice of consumables is wider than that of a doctor, and it will also be supplemented by your own infuriating energy."

"Is that so..." Yan Lingji felt that she understood, but she didn't, "But how come you know so much about the Yin Yang family's alchemy... oh no, alchemy?"

"Because I know a little bit about it." Gu Xun spread his hands as a matter of course.

Why do you understand? Of course it’s because I know how!

There's nothing wrong with this logic, but Yan Lingji feels even more confused.

Gu Xun didn't mean to answer her questions. If she asked, she would have a photographic memory. If she asked, she would be a genius. If she asked, I would know it just by looking at the people of the Yin Yang family.

In fact, it was natural to spend money, but not a lot of money. It just opened the first level of onmyoji - alchemy.

The Onmyoji of the Yin Yang family is very special. It is divided into five levels, but the relationship between the five levels is not progressive. Alchemy, illusion, mind control, astrology, and soul-changing, these five realms respectively correspond to the five major Yin-Yang techniques - techniques, tactics, curses, laws, and laws. Each level has its own characteristics and uses, but it is not the opposite. Enhancement or addition to the previous layer.

Among them, the three levels of illusion, mind control, and soul-changing have a considerable amount of overlap, which is the ability to construct illusions. However, in fact, only the second-level illusion technique is really focused on illusions. Mind-controlling and soul-changing are by-pass situations.

Minister Jin, Elder Yun Zhongjun, is the strongest person in alchemy, or alchemy, in the Yin Yang family. This is because he majors in the first level of alchemy and has the deepest research on this part. He is much worse at other things and can barely reach the third level. The realm of layer-controlling mantra is the lowest among the five elders.

Age is among the best.

Gu Xun now only needs the abilities related to the first level of alchemy, so naturally he has no money to spend on the later ones, and they are not cheap.

But the trick is that even if alchemy is spent money, Gu Xun can't reach the level of Yun Zhongjun, because the only technical problems this thing can solve with money are key, qi movement, techniques and other technical problems, but some Pure knowledge reserves are powerless.

This part requires Gu Xun to memorize the properties of herbs by rote and memorize them in his mind, just like when he was studying medicine.

All in all, it can't be done in a short time.

So the money spent...can't be said to be completely useless, it can only be said that it is of no great use for the time being.

Yan Lingji looked at Gu Xun's rare solemn expression and asked carefully, "Then... what should I do now, give up?"

Gu Xun rubbed his chin with one hand and nodded helplessly, "The way to solve the problem directly from the materials is temporarily unavailable, so we can only use stupid methods."

"What stupid idea?"

"Test them one by one, try them all with everything that might react with the drug."

"Ah this..." Yan Lingji opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

This is truly a stupid method... It's too stupid. How long will it take to try this?

Gu Xun glanced at her expression and knew what she was thinking, and explained, "It's not as complicated as you think. Of course...it's not easy either."

"But this has nothing to do with me. I can't handle this kind of workload alone, so I'd better leave it to the people at Taiyuan Hospital."

"Haha... Really." Yan Lingji laughed dryly.

No wonder you look so calm and leisurely, it turns out you are leaving the work to someone else.

Gu Xun also felt the doubt in the other person's eyes, and still defended himself, "I am a national preceptor now, not an imperial physician. I can't possibly fight with a pill all day long."

"This is the job of Taiyuan Hospital."

Without Gu Xun, Tai Hospital would have to temporarily withhold the medicine and slowly test it until Ying Zheng couldn't stand the headache and had to take the medicine before being forced to let go.

"Okay, I understand." Yan Lingji just nodded casually.

She just casually cursed in her heart. As for whether the imperial doctor at the imperial hospital was tired or not, it was none of her business. It would be best if Gu Xun was not tired.
