"Well, the elixir that poisoned Hanshanke? Why do you ask?" Ding Liu asked in confusion after hearing Lu Jing's explanation of his purpose.
"Just... take care of me." Lu Jing said anxiously.
Fortunately, Ding Liu just asked casually, and then said, "Hanshanke can be considered a master of alchemy, but he only practices one kind of elixir, which is the elixir of longevity. He hopes that he can obtain eternal life by relying on the elixir."
Ding Liu shook his head as he spoke, "However, everyone in the world has a destiny. Immortality is something that goes against the will of heaven and is naturally very difficult. So he failed to succeed after all these years. In the end, he even lost his life for it. It's really It's a pity.
"I have also checked the elixir that poisoned him. Although I don't know what some of it is, the most important ones are roughly the same as Hanshi Powder. I guess he improved it himself. As for why it is so toxic, Strong, because he added too much red vitriol and nux vomica in it.
"Both of these medicines are very toxic, but I see that he also added a lot of herbs to suppress and neutralize the toxicity in the pill. Unfortunately, it seems that the proportion is wrong."
After hearing Ding Liu's words, Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
He has also heard the name of Hanshi Powder. Not only are Taoist priests who cultivate immortality refining and using it, this elixir is also quite popular among wealthy businessmen and powerful people. Many people firmly believe that this is the only way to eternal life.
Even though many people die from it every year, Hanshi Powder is still highly sought after.
Although it is a bit hard to accept that Hanshanke was poisoned to death by Hanshi Powder, and it seemed a bit like a good swimmer drowning in water, but in this case at least his death was not because of helping Lu Jing make elixirs.
But Lu Jing still felt uncomfortable after coming to this conclusion.
No matter what, Hanshanke is dead.
Then where could Lu Jing get the poisonous elixir he had promised to help refine?
Seeing Lu Jing's ugly face, Ding Liu thought that he had a good relationship with Hanshanke, so he advised, "People cannot be resurrected after death, and we are paper people. In fact, on the day we made up our minds to enter the valley, for the outside world For us, there is no difference between us and death, and now we are just saying goodbye to this small valley."
Lu Jing was silent for a moment, then said again, "Hanshanke is dead, what to do with his relics, including his money, clothes, and...his elixirs and so on."
"We usually bury ordinary things with his body. As for the more valuable things, it usually depends on who he wants to leave them to. Of course, his situation this time is quite special and he died accidentally.
"Then the silver will be handed over to the young Marquis. Either everyone will share it together, or buy some things for the valley. As for the pill prescription you mentioned...well, this thing is considered a masterpiece. According to the custom, it is also kept by the young Marquis. , and then people in the valley can try to exchange them for white shells."
The drunkard on the side interjected at this time, "He even ate himself to death while refining elixirs. Is this considered a unique skill?"
"Forget it," Ding Liu nodded and said, "Although he has never refined the elixir of immortality in his life, he has also refined some other elixirs by accident, such as the Zhuyan Dan. Just look at his appearance. It’s just like being in your thirties or forties, this is the result of Zhu Yan Dan.”
As soon as Ding Liu said these words, maybe the men didn't feel anything at all, but the women beside him became excited.
They may not all be interested in immortality, but eternal youth is a temptation that all women cannot resist.
The paper girls with quick hands have already begun to count how many white shells they have on their bodies.
Those who were not short of money simply offered the price and prepared to receive the goods.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Jing did not dare to delay any longer, and quickly turned back to look for the young Marquis.
This time he didn't hide it anymore and told the young Marquis about asking Hanshanke to help him make elixirs.
After hearing this, the young Marquis frowned and asked Lu Jingdao, "Is there any written agreement between you?"
"No," Lu Jing smiled bitterly, "He said he couldn't beat me anyway and he wouldn't regret it."
"…………"
"This would be troublesome." The young Marquis said, "Although the prescriptions left by Cold Mountain Guest are kept with me, I am only in charge of them. Strictly speaking, these things belong to all the paper people in Jinghu Valley.
"If you can't produce evidence to prove that Hanshanke had an appointment with you before and gave you one of the prescriptions, then I can't make the decision to hand over the prescription to you in private."
"Is there no other way? That prescription is very important to me." Lu Jing could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor now.
Since Han Shanke died under the influence of his own elixir, it means that the poisonous elixir he promised to help Lu Jing refine to curb the expansion of the secret power probably did not fail.
In fact, this inference is very possible in terms of time. After all, before Lu Jing left, according to Hanshanke, the poison pill could be made in just one or two days.
With Hanshanke's eagerness to seek immortality, he couldn't wait to open the furnace and refine another furnace of immortality pills. This was also a normal operation.
But this time, he failed to control the ratio of several medicines and took himself directly to heaven.
But if Lu Jing could get the elixir recipe he left behind and find another alchemist, he might be able to refine the poisonous elixir he had been dreaming about before he became a monk in the Second Palace.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the young Marquis is willing to cooperate with him and give him the pill recipe.
Instead of letting the elixir flow into the bottomless prize pool, Lu Jing was not sure that he would be able to draw it when the chance was less than 1%.
The young Marquis also fell into deep thought after hearing this.
After a moment, she spoke again, "There is no rule without rules. I can't break the hundreds of years of rules in Jinghu Valley just for you. Otherwise, it will be difficult not only for me, but also for the subsequent young marquises." There’s a lot of people.”
Seeing that Lu Jing was about to say something, the young Marquis waved his hand, signaling Lu Jing to let her finish speaking. Then she changed the subject and continued, "But your request is not completely impossible."
"What should I do to get that pill prescription?" Lu Jing asked.
"Don't worry, this may be difficult for others, but it should be quite simple for you. I heard Wu Han said that you are a disciple of Senior Ye?"
Lu nodded, "Not bad."
"So you should be proficient in the art of controlling beasts," the young Marquis said while pointing to where A Bao was. "It looked like that after Hanshanke died. It has been lying there all day. I haven’t eaten or drank all night.”
"The relationship between it and Hanshanke. Everyone in Jinghu Valley knows that if Hanshanke is still alive, they definitely don't want to see it like this, so if you can restore Abao's vitality, it can be regarded as the end of Hanshanke." He has made a last wish, so according to the rules in Jinghu Valley, you can choose one of his relics to take away."
