The outing organized by Yinzuo ended with Yinzuo collapsing from exhaustion, the tenth and fourteenth brothers getting diarrhea from tasting hundreds of herbs, and the ninth brother returning to the palace with a large bag of elm seeds. After that, Yinzuo behaved himself for a while and never went out for a wander again.
"Sixth brother, look what good things I brought you."
Looking at Yin? who was running in hurriedly with something in his hand, Yinzuo didn't even raise his eyelids. It was not that he didn't believe that Yin? had good things in his hands, but that Yinzuo had a weird taste. Last time, he got a jade toad from somewhere. The green light on Yinzuo made him feel nervous.
"Dexi, quickly move a chair over for your Tenth Master and pour him a cup of tea. Leave the things here. Don't be in a hurry to look at them. Tenth Master, catch your breath first before you speak."
Yin? put the things in his hand on the table next to Yinzuo, took the teacup handed to him by Dexi and drank it all in one gulp. Yinzuo frowned at his generosity.
"Old Ten, you are a prince after all. Can you please be more polite? If Khan Ama saw you drinking tea like that just now, you would definitely be punished to learn the rules again."
Yin thought to himself, "I'm not you, and I'm not stupid. How could I dare to do this in front of Khan Ama?" But no matter what he thought, he didn't dare to act rashly in front of his sixth brother.
"Sixth brother is right. I will pay attention next time. But isn't there anyone here right now? I'm here to give you something good. Sixth brother, open the box on the table and take a look."
Although Yin Zuo had no expectations of Yin Xi's taste, he felt it would be unreasonable not to take a look at the things his younger brother had eagerly presented to him. So he leaned forward slightly, took the box from Yin Xi, and opened it in front of him.
The objects placed in the box looked quite exquisitely made at first glance. They were made of ivory and decorated with silver, agate and other gems. However, Yinzuo felt that the objects looked strangely familiar at first glance.
"You have a good eye this time. This thing is exquisitely made and made of high-quality materials. But it looks very familiar to me. Where did you get it?"
As soon as Yin Zuo was mentioned, he immediately became interested. He stood up and walked in front of Yin Zuo, speaking mysteriously.
"Sixth brother, let me tell you, although this pipe looks exquisite, it's just that, after all. The real treasure is what's inside the small box. According to my cousin, this longevity cream can make people feel like they're in heaven."
As soon as the words "Fu Shou Gao" came out, Yinzuo instantly knew why the thing in the box looked so familiar. Oh my god, isn't that a pipe? The reason he didn't recognize it at first glance was that compared to the ones he had seen online before, the workmanship was so exquisite that it completely dispelled the idea of it being a pipe. When he thought that Lao Shi might have touched the Fu Shou Gao in this box before, Yinzuo's heart jumped and he stood up from his chair.
"Yin Yu, tell me honestly, who gave you this thing? Have you ever touched this longevity cream? You'd better tell me the truth, otherwise if I find out you're lying, I'll send you to Khan Aman and let him beat you with a big stick."
Yinzuo's tone was unprecedentedly serious, which frightened Yinzuo, who had been complacent just now, but then he became a little angry. He had given the good things to his sixth brother without hesitation, and it would have been fine if he didn't appreciate it, but why did he send himself to Khan Aman to be beaten?
"Sixth brother, how can you be like this? The longevity cream in this box is worth a fortune. I sent it to you out of kindness, but you don't appreciate it, so why are you trying to scare me?"
Yinzuo was already worried that Yinzhen had touched the contents of the box. Now that he saw Yinzhen avoiding the topic and talking about other things, he was almost certain that Yinzhen had already taken the longevity cream. He became anxious and felt a black screen in front of his eyes. After calming himself down, he pulled Yinzhen out.
"It's okay, Yin? Even if you've used this longevity cream, it doesn't matter. Sixth Brother will help you quit. Although the process is a little painful, as long as we persist, we will definitely succeed. The person who gave you the longevity cream is a ruthless person. Let's go to the Qianqing Palace with Sixth Brother to find Khan Ama and let him make the decision for you."
Yin? was dragged out by Yinzuo by the arm. At first, he was full of anger, but when he walked out of the South Third House, he realized that his sixth brother seemed to be serious. It seemed that he really wanted to send him to Khan Aman to be beaten.
"Sixth...Sixth brother, what are you doing? If you have something to say, why can't we just talk it out in peace? Why do you have to bring it up in front of Khan Ama? Now, let me go, and I promise to tell you everything you ask."
Yin was also afraid at this point. Although he had never been beaten with a stick, he had seen others who had been beaten with a stick. That guy's butt was bruised after a few strokes. Although his sixth brother might not be able to persuade the Khan to beat him with a stick in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, it didn't guarantee that he would not be beaten with a stick. So, people should admit defeat when it is necessary. There is no need to be so hard on yourself.
Although Yinzuo was older than Yinzhen, he was not as strong as Yinzhen. Yinzhen was determined not to leave, and Yinzuo really couldn't pull him away. However, after this interruption, Yinzuo's mind was a little clearer than before. Seeing that Yinzhen was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, he simply squatted down.
"It's okay if you don't go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Then just answer whatever I ask you. If I find out you're lying, I'll drag you there today even if it means delaying you."
Yinzuo thought he had some understanding of Yin?, and felt that it should not be difficult to tell from his language which of his words were true and which were false, so the two brothers just squatted and sat, one asked and the other answered.
"Where did you get this longevity cream? How long has it been there? How long have you been taking it?"
"This thing was given to me by my cousin from my uncle's family. I just got it today, and I was so eager to bring it to you. I haven't even had the chance to see what's inside. But Sixth Brother, not only did you not appreciate it, you even dragged me to Khan Ama to get a beating. How can you be a brother like this?"
Yinzuo carefully observed the expression on Yinzhen's face and found that he was only angry and indignant, not guilty or uneasy. He knew that most of what he said was true. His younger brother was straightforward and never beat around the bush. Since he said he just got it today, it must be true.
Knowing that Yin Zuo had never touched this thing, the tension in his heart couldn't help but relax. He reached out to pull Yin Zuo up from the ground and helped him brush off the dust on his clothes.
"It's good that you haven't touched it. Old Ten, Sixth Brother is telling you, you can't touch this longevity cream. It's something that can kill people. Once you get addicted, it's hard to quit."
