Chapter 34: Finding the Right Person
He straightened his face and asked, "I wonder what brings you here, Madam?"
Ji Yunshu paused. She couldn't just mention explosives, and she knew nothing about alchemy.
So what excuse can I use to talk to this little Taoist priest?
She rolled her eyes and said, "I heard from my husband that the Taoist priest is a miracle doctor. It is thanks to him that my husband's legs are in such good condition today. I have come here to express my gratitude to him."
Speaking of this Taoist priest Yichen, he said solemnly: "Prince Zhao can endure the pain of broken bones and rebirth. It is truly incomparable to ordinary people. Even without the Taoist priest, he will be fine."
Broken bones and rebirth?
Will it be okay?
So is Zhao Shen’s leg healed?
This thought flashed through her mind, and Ji Yunshu unconsciously recalled how Zhao Shen was calmly being held by Jingzhe and Dongzhi in front of her these days.
She calmly changed the subject, "No matter what, I must thank the Taoist priest. I heard that the Taoist priest is proficient in alchemy. I want to ask if there is really a pill in this world that can cure all poisons?"
Yichen probably didn't expect that she came for this. He was stunned for a moment before saying, "Madam, you're joking. Everything in the world is interdependent and mutually exclusive. How can there be a pill that can cure all poisons?"
Ji Yunshu asked dejectedly, "Really? I heard that a wizard from Mobei once created a medicine called Bilingdan, claiming it could bring the dead back to life. Could it be that the people from Mobei are just kidding?"
Yichen seemed to recall something after hearing this, and after a moment he said, "I also went to Mobei for the Biling Pill, but I never had the chance to see it, so I don't know whether the legend is true or not."
Ji Yunshu asked persistently, "People from Mobei wouldn't just learn from others without any reason, right?"
Yichen said, "The world is so vast, and there are so many wonders. It's possible there are some miraculous elixirs that I don't know about. But if Madam has come here for this purpose, I'm sorry I can't help you."
Ji Yunshu nodded, not forcing anything, and simply said, "I'm just curious. It's fine if there's nothing. I've been quite interested in alchemy lately. I wonder if I could bother you for a few days?"
Yichen nodded: "Madam is an honored guest, so I will naturally welcome you."
Although he said this, he couldn't help but complain in his heart. He didn't know what Prince Zhao was thinking, actually letting his newlywed wife go to the Taoist temple to study the art of alchemy.
Although he is a Taoist priest, he neither likes to meditate nor to practice self-cultivation.
He has been studying medicine and alchemy for many years.
In the eyes of the Taoist temple's master and fellow disciples, his behavior was simply absurd and not doing his job properly.
In fact, not many people knew about his medical skills. After all, the greatest use of his medical skills was to help his fellow disciples in the Taoist temple cure typhoid fever, heatstroke, headaches and fever.
A few years ago, Prince Zhao somehow knew that he had medical skills, and he went against everyone's opinion and let him treat his legs.
That was actually his first time using a knife on a human being. He broke out in a cold sweat as he took out the broken bones bit by bit from the broken leg, but Prince Zhao never said a word.
To be able to endure that, he must be no ordinary person.
Fortunately, the result was good.
I don’t know what the Crown Prince’s wife wants to do this time?
A pill that can cure all poisons?
Many people have heard of that thing, but no one has ever seen it.
Does it really exist?
A strange light flashed in Yichen's eyes.
He watched with great interest as Ji Yunshu's guards and followers skillfully moved things from the carriage.
Judging from the situation, he really plans to stay here permanently.
After he said goodbye and left, Lu Ru and Lan Yin took people to clean up the house.
Ji Yunshu chose a shady place in the yard and sat down.
Bai Ling stayed beside her without saying a word.
Ji Yunshu asked, "What do you think of this Taoist priest?"
Bai Ling is not only good at martial arts, but also has excellent medical skills.
There's really no point in just following her around.
As a woman in the inner palace, a cut on her finger would normally be the worst injury she could suffer.
Bai Ling thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure about his medical skills, but his poison skills should be very powerful."
"Ah?" Ji Yunshu didn't expect such an answer. "How do you say that?"
Bai Ling's delicate brows knitted slightly: "Did Madam notice his skin color?"
"Very white."
Bai Ling nodded: "That shouldn't be a normal skin color, but a sequelae of some toxin."
Ji Yunshu: "What kind of toxin could have such an effect? Are there any other side effects?"
If it's just about turning white, then she wants it too.
Bai Ling inexplicably understood the envy in her eyes and quickly dispelled her thoughts: "That must be a very powerful poison. Most people would die if they were poisoned by it. Even that Taoist priest probably couldn't control it, which is why it left such marks."
Ji Yunshu was just thinking about it; she actually had no obsession with turning white.
The skin of her current body is just not as white and shiny as that of Taoist Master Yichen, but it is already white enough among ordinary people.
"Is he actually a master of poison?"
Ji Yunshu murmured.
Although he behaved normally just now, she could tell that this little Taoist priest was different from ordinary people.
When talking about alchemy, especially the Biling Pill, there was an unusual light in his eyes.
What's more, a young Taoist priest actually went to Mobei for a legend.
It seems that you are really interested in these things.
Ji Yunshu vaguely felt that she might have found the right person.
After a while, Yin Ye walked around outside and came back to report, "Miss Lu lives in the yard next to ours."
Ji Yunshu nodded. Lu Ningshuang was indeed coming for her.
"Any other discoveries?"
Yin Ye shook her head. "There seem to be quite a few people living in this mountain behind. I also saw a lot of children. I don't know who they are from. I can't tell for the moment."
Ji Yunshu said nonchalantly, "You must be tired after such a long journey. Go and rest first. We are just guests. We don't need to get involved in irrelevant matters."
I guess the host wouldn't like them to pry into everything.
Ji Yunshu got up early the next morning and went out for a walk.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he ran into Lu Ningshuang who came out of the yard next door.
As soon as Lu Ningshuang saw her, she smiled and said, "It seems that Sister Ji and I are indeed destined to be together. What are you going to do so early?"
Ji Yunshu smiled. "I'm just bored. It's my first time here, so I plan to go shopping. What are you going to do, Sister Lu?"
As she spoke, she glanced at the maid beside Lu Ningshuang. She was holding a basket filled with incense, candles and yellow paper. It was obvious that she was going to burn incense.
Lu Ningshuang said, "I'm going to the temple to burn some incense and ask the Taoist priest for some talisman paper. Sister Ji, do you want to come with me?"
Ji Yunshu shook his head: "I haven't prepared anything, let's do it next time."
Lu Ningshuang pulled her and said, "It's okay, I have a lot of them prepared. I can't use them anyway, so I'll just give some to Sister Ji."
So the two of them went to the front yard together.
"Sister Ji, the food in Taiqing Temple is also amazing. Shall we go and try it together later?"
She is indeed a perceptive person. I can tell from the barbecue yesterday that she likes it.
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Okay, I like it the most."
Lu Ningshuang smiled and said, "Sister Ji is really straightforward. If it were any other young lady, they wouldn't say it even if they liked him."
Ji Yunshu looked at Lu Ningshuang who was enthusiastically talking to him, and really couldn't understand what she wanted to do?
