Chapter 195 Corpse Poison
“Please wait a moment, I’ll look for it.” The staff member looked for a while and shook his head, “Sorry, we don’t have the kind of book you want here.”
"Thank you." Wang An was about to leave, but stopped again. "Are there any books about ancient alchemy, architecture, etc.?"
"Please wait."
This time I actually found a few books.
One is "Baopuzi" and the other is "Yunji Qi Jian". These two books not only mention the method of alchemy, but also the method of cultivating immortals; one of the books related to ancient architecture is "Lu Ban Jing". ", and the other one is "Creating Style".
Wang An bought all these books.
When he returned to Grandpa Lu Xiangyi's residence, the sun had already set.
“I really got a lung infection because of what you said.” Lu Xiangyi said.
As they were talking, Lu Siying came out of the back room. When she saw Wang An, she hurriedly came up to express her gratitude, and then asked him how he could tell. Is it really just by listening?

“Is the auscultation method of traditional Chinese medicine so powerful?”
“He is a great person.” Lu Xiangyi said with a smile.
Wang An didn't say anything but stared at Lu Siying. Lu Siying was calm and generous, but her face was still a little red because of being stared at by a man.
“You must seize the time to treat your illness.”
"You mean her illness has worsened?" Lu Xiangyi, who was standing by, understood the meaning of Wang An's words.
"Yes, the murmur in her lungs was a little worse when she was talking than at noon, and her face looked a little off," Wang And said.
"Facial?" Lu Xiangyi turned to look at his sister. He didn't see anything unusual.
“When I looked at her at noon, she was still radiant, like flowers in spring. Now I look at her face with a faint aura of darkness.” Wang And said.
This is not some metaphysical "qi-gazing technique" in physiognomy, but a "diagnosis" method of traditional Chinese medicine. Some diseases of a person will be reflected through the complexion on the face.
If you look at a person with a rosy face and bright eyes, there will be no health problems. If you look at a person with a bad complexion, listlessness, and dim eyes, then your health will definitely not be good.
After hearing what Wang An said, the Lu family stopped being careless and hurriedly arranged for Lu Siying to receive treatment and made an appointment with the best experts.
Wang An did not return to Hu'an, but stayed in Jiankang, looking around at night and enjoying the famous night view of Qinhuai.
The smoke is in the cold water, the moon is in the sand, and I stay in Qinhuai at night, close to the restaurant.
Most of the people playing by the river were young men and women, and the river flowed quietly under the light. It has been flowing for who knows how many years.
Wang An stood by the river and looked at the water. The moon, ships, people's silhouettes, and laughter were echoing in the water. In another hundred or thousand years, this river will still flow like this. What about the people by the river?
“Okay!” The cheers from not far away interrupted his thoughts. When he looked around, he saw a group of people surrounding a young man. The young man was practicing boxing. Wang An looked very familiar. It was Tai Chi. The adapted Tai Chi, or Tai Chi dance would be more appropriate. Watching the flowing clouds and flowing water is pleasing to the eye.
Some people in the surrounding crowd clapped and applauded, and some took photos. More and more people were watching. Wang An also watched for a while and clapped along with the people beside him.
“This is not Tai Chi.” someone in the crowd said softly.
“Why isn’t this Tai Chi? Does it have to be the kind of slow practice practiced by old men and women in the park to be called Tai Chi?”
"That's not true. Tai Chi is not just slow and slow. It can also be fast, which can be astonishingly fast. It is also not just feminine. It can also be strong and fierce. When it is strong, it can be comparable to Baji Quan. It will kill people. It's a pity that there are too few people who know real Tai Chi."
“Well, what this young man said makes sense.” Wang An glanced at the thin man. A cute girl next to him was looking up at him, blinking her big eyes.
“Have you ever practiced Tai Chi?”
“Have practiced a little.”
“So are you practicing real Tai Chi?”
“So be it.” The young man nodded.
“Then why don’t you go up and compete with him?”
“Practice kung fu to strengthen your body and improve yourself, not to be strong and competitive.” The young man said softly.
“Young man, what you said is eloquent, as if you really know Kung Fu.” After hearing this, a middle-aged man on the side turned to look at the young man, “You go up and show your hands and we can see.”
“That’s right, go up and show your hands!” The people on the side started cheering.
The young man shook his head, took the girl beside him and left.
“Just talk without practice, it’s probably just a lie, it’s just lip service.”
“Who are you talking about?!” The girl stared at the man with wide eyes and puffed her cheeks.
“Yo yo, I’m so scared.”
“Let’s go!” The young man pulled the girl next to him.
Wang An looked at the young man's fists, and it was obvious that his heart was not as calm as his expression.
“He was making fun of you just now.” The girl still looked very angry.
“The mouth is on him, let him say whatever he wants.”
“Aren’t you angry?”
"What can I do if I'm angry? Can I hit him?"
“Yes, didn’t you say you have practiced Tai Chi?”
"I'm practicing to be able to fight really well." The young man said after a moment of silence, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to control myself if I use my hands."
"So what?"
“You will die!” The young man turned to look at the girl next to him.
The girl was stunned after hearing this and looked at her serious-looking friend next to her. "You, are you telling the truth?"
“Really, people are actually very fragile.” The young man nodded. Wang An, who was listening to the conversation between the two people, smiled.
“Hey, what are you laughing at?” The girl saw Wang An staring at them and laughing, thinking she was laughing at her friend.
“What he said makes sense.” Wang An pointed at the young man with a smile.
“You also know Tai Chi?”
“Understand a little bit.” Wang An said and smiled at the young man, who nodded in greeting with a smile.
What this peer just said was pleasing to his ears, and indeed it made sense.
Wang An turned around and left. Just as he was thinking about going to other places to have a look, he heard a scream coming from behind. He turned around and looked back, only to see the young man who was doing Tai Chi falling to the ground and standing beside him. A big and thick man.
“Just listen to me, if you dare to seduce my girlfriend again, I will kill you!”
oh? ! A group of onlookers nearby looked like they were not too worried about the fun, their eyes were shining.
The Lu family had already arranged a place for him, a very quiet villa. When he returned to the place, Lu Xiangyi was already waiting there. On the table were the books Wang An bought during the day.
“Is your sister feeling better?”
“No, the condition is showing signs of deterioration and the fever has already started.” Lu Xiangyi said with some worry.
“Is it that serious?”
"She is currently conducting a very special research. I have consulted her supervisor. Some of her colleagues who were researching with her also had similar symptoms. The same symptoms were shadows in the lungs and fever. Some even developed symptoms. Hallucination.”
“What are they studying?”
“A corpse.”
“Corpse? Your sister’s research is really special.”
“It’s very special. It’s the corpse that caused the orangutan mutation and was regarded by outsiders as the monster red-haired animal.” Lu Xiangyi said matter-of-factly.
“That has something to do with the weird biological substance in the corpse. Did your sister tell you what it was?”
“Fungi similar to Tai Sui.”
"Taisui?" Wang An was slightly startled after hearing this, "Didn't his mentor understand the reason for her treatment?"
"He analyzed that it was the poisonous substances released by the fungus that caused them to become sick. However, they were very careful during the research process, and some people in the same research group became sick while others were fine. This is very confusing. strangeness."
Wang An fell silent after hearing this. He couldn't be of much help in this matter. He was not very proficient in either medical skills or biology, so he couldn't give any advice.
“I’m a little worried about her.”
“Auspicious people have their own destiny.” Wang An could only comfort Lu Xiangyi in this way.
The next day, Wang An visited Lu Siying. After all, she was Lu Xiangyi's sister, so she should go and see her.
Within a day, her face became much paler and her breathing became rapid. It felt as if something was blocking her lungs, as if there was not enough air. It looked like the situation was not good.
Because of concerns about the possibility of the disease being transmitted, Lu Siying's room was isolated in a separate room.
"what did the doctor say?"
“I’ve been to several doctors. Some said it was a special bacterial infection, and some said it was evil poison entering the lungs. I’ve already taken medicine, but the effect is not very good.”
“Infection, evil poison?” Needless to say, the two doctors gave different explanations.
At this time, Lu Xiangyi's grandfather came over with an old man in his seventies and entered the house to treat Lu Siying.
“That is Mr. Liu, a famous master of Chinese medicine. Grandpa invited him from the capital.” Lu Xiangyi said softly.
After a while, Mr. Liu came out of the house.
“It was an evil poison that invaded her lungs, but this evil poison is very weird. Can you tell her how she contracted this disease?” the old man asked.
Lu Xiangyi did not dare to hide anything and told the old man about his sister's work during this period.
“Tai Sui, in a thousand-year-old corpse, could this be infected with the legendary corpse poison?”
“Then why are the people who are studying with her okay?”
"I don't know the reason for this at the moment. Maybe some people pay more attention to protection. It would be troublesome if she was infected with corpse poison. This kind of poison mainly stays in the lungs for now, but it will spread soon. It's all over her internal organs, even her marrow. When I took her pulse just now, I already felt signs of infection in her internal organs."
"so what should I do now?"
"That kind of evil poison is in the corpse and never sees the light of day. It is an extremely yin poison and needs to be treated with extremely yang medicine. I have to think about it carefully." The old man said.
“What is corpse poison? Is it the kind of thing described in novels?” Lu Xiangyi asked hurriedly.
“This is my first time seeing him. I need to think carefully about how to use the medicine.”
“Okay, I’m here to help you.”
Lu Xiangyi’s grandfather arranged for Mr. Liu to be sent to the residence prepared for him.
“Do you know about corpse poison?” Lu Xiangyi asked Wang An next to him.
“I’ve only seen it in novels and stories, so I don’t know what it is.” Wang An said truthfully.
That afternoon, Mr. Liu prescribed a medicine. Less than an hour after taking it, Lu Siying began to vomit, and the vomit was mixed with dark red blood. Mr. Liu looked solemn after taking her pulse.
“Evil poison has invaded the internal organs.”
“What should we do?” Lu Xiangyi’s father asked hurriedly.
Mr. Liu shook his head, "I have been using several popular Chinese medicines, hoping to use them to dispel the evil poison, but it seems that the effect is still not effective."
“What if there are more domineering drugs?” Wang An asked at the side.
"A more domineering drug, what domineering method?" Mr. Liu turned to look at Wang An and asked.
“The kind that can burn all the internal organs!”
"Is there such a overbearing medicine?" Liu Lao was stunned, "Let me think about it, if there is such a overbearing medicine, it can indeed dispel this evil poison, but it must ensure that the body is not seriously damaged. After taking the medicine for a period of time, Immediately thereafter take additional medicine to nourish the organs.”
After Wang An’s reminder, Mr. Liu started talking to himself.
This master of Chinese medicine is extraordinary. When Wang An reminded him, he could already think of taking strong drugs and then taking tonics to repair the damage to the body. This coincided with what Zhou Dian left in the picture.
"This method is feasible. Where can the medicine you mentioned come from? Let me see what it looks like first. What is the main medicine?"
“Wait a moment.” Wang An pulled Lu Xiangyi aside.
“The medicine you are talking about is not Red Pill, right?” Lu Xiangyi said softly. He thought of Red Pill when Wang An said the words “burn the internal organs thoroughly”.
"Yes, it's the Red Pill. After taking the Red Pill, it's like swallowing a ball of fire. This ball of fire can just drive away the evil poison. I'm just a suggestion. After all, using this pill is indeed too risky." Wang Andao said.
“I have to discuss it with my father and grandpa.”
The three of them, their ancestors and grandson, got together to discuss this matter. They could get Chidan, but this treatment process was too risky.
After all, many people have died from taking Red Pill, and those people were all physically strong and specially trained people. Lu Siying, a woman, would definitely not be able to compare with those people even if she had practiced some kung fu.
While they were discussing, Lu Siying fell into a brief coma. Now they were even more anxious.
“Try it!”
Lu Xiangyi immediately took out the red pill. Mr. Liu looked at the elixir, gently took out a little and put it into the end, tasted a little, and then spit it out immediately.
“What a strong medicine!”
“Where is the recipe for this medicine? Can you show me the recipe?”
“This, this is confidential. Mr. Liu, you can’t spread it after reading it.”
“Okay!” The old man nodded.
Lu Xiangyi wrote out the prescription for Chidan. He had known the recipe earlier.
