Wei Lichu sneered, "Besides dealing with elixirs, why would I have so many things to do that I shouldn't do?"
Yu Jiao was not fooled by his frivolous appearance. After all, he even dared to refine the Five Stones Powder. However, Yu Jiao did not say any more. Wei Lichu was older than her, and he should know what to do and what not to do.
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Jianjia lit the lamp. After Yu Jiao washed her hands with pepper and salt water, she asked casually, "Cousin Li Chu, do you want to stay for dinner?"
Wei Lichu smoothed the wrinkles on his collar and stood up. "No, thank you for helping me heal my wounds, third cousin. I'll go back first."
Yu Jiao did not stand up to see him off. Looking at Wei Lichu's leaving back, she suddenly thought of the symptoms of Cui Mubai that Cui Qiong had described. Something flashed through her mind quickly, and Yu Jiao opened her eyes wide suddenly. Yes, Wu Shi San!
Liu Yaozhen said that Cui Mubai would feel hot before having sex and his physical strength was much better than before.
Wu Shi San has a hot and dry nature. After taking it, the whole body will feel hot, the mind will be cheerful, the physical strength will be enhanced, and it also has the effect of strengthening yang.
The famous scholars of the Wei and Jin Dynasties were romantic and liked to take Wu Shi San. After taking the powder, their whole body would have a fever and produce a number of confusing short-term effects. Then they would become cold. The symptoms were quite similar to mild malaria. Moreover, they could not lie still after taking the powder and had to walk to "disperse". They also had to wear thin clothes, eat cold food, and pour cold water on their bodies. Therefore, Wu Shi San was also called Hanshi San, which means cold clothes, cold drinks, cold food, cold lying down, and extreme cold.
However, long-term use can cause mental confusion, loss of control, drastic changes in temperament, mania, intolerance, madness and even dementia.
These symptoms are exactly what Cui Qiong said.
Yu Jiao's mind flashed back to the day when she went to East Garden, passed by Wei Lichu's courtyard, and saw Wei Lichu giving Cui Mubai several paper packages.
At that time, she subconsciously thought that what Wei Lichu gave Cui Mubai was elixir, and she even deliberately pointed out to Cui Mubai that the elixir contained elixir poison, and that ordinary people should take less elixir.
Cui Mubai replied to her at that time that he was just curious about the pills, so he asked Wei Lichu for a few pills.
Thinking of this, Yu Jiao hurriedly shouted at Wei Lichu's back as he was about to step out of the courtyard, "Cousin Lichu!"
Wei Lichu paused, turned around, and looked at Yu Jiao from a distance, still smiling, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Yu Jiao hurriedly walked up to him and looked up at him, "Cousin Li Chu, did you give the Wu Shi San to your brother-in-law?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Wei Lichu's eyes. He didn't expect that Yu Jiao would know about this.
He stopped smiling and denied it flatly, "No, how could I give something like Wu Shi San to my brother-in-law? Third cousin, although I am not a decent person, I am not so stupid as to let my relatives take Wu Shi San!"
Yu Jiao stared at him with suspicion, "What were in those medicine bags you gave to your brother-in-law outside your courtyard some time ago? Don't fool me. When your brother-in-law comes to the house tomorrow, I will know whether he has taken Wu Shi San just by taking his pulse." She had diagnosed that Cui Mubai's pulse was different last time, but she never thought it would be the effect of Wu Shi San.
Yu Jiao's face was not looking good, staring at Wei Lichu, "The Five Stones Powder you refined is not the medicinal Hanshi Powder. If you take it, you will become addicted and die suddenly! What is the fate of people who take powder since ancient times? You should know better than me. My brother-in-law has a weak body. If he really takes your Five Stones Powder, you are asking for his life!"
Wei Lichu's lips moved. Under Yu Jiao's direct gaze, he finally gave up lying and sighed silently, "You should go ask him."
