Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Zhao Gao's Death Again
"I guess it's the Mother-Child Pill." Ying Zheng only pondered for a moment before giving the answer.
"Haha, Your Majesty, you are really smart. It's the Mother-Child Pill." Zhu Dan praised, but he was not particularly surprised.
Because the effect of Zi Mu Dan is here, you can guess it is this one with just a little imagination. Since it can improve the blast furnace, can it also improve the seeds?
"But what I'm more worried about is whether this Zi Mu Dan can be used on living things?"
Zhu Dan rarely showed any sign of nervousness.
"Seeds are in a rather special state. They're dead; some seeds truly can't germinate. But they're alive; they can germinate and grow into plants, passing on their genes. The impact of this process is, in some ways, even greater than a blast furnace that can continuously produce iron weapons."
A blast furnace will naturally become scrapped after a period of use; it is a dead object, but its seeds can be passed down from generation to generation; they are dynamic and alive.
Ying Zheng nodded slightly.
Zhu Dan was a person who loved to share with him, and he knew the most about all the pills she had refined.
For each type of elixir, Ying Zheng would carefully consider its other uses.
He also considered this disadvantage of the Zimu Pill and consoled Zhu Dan, saying, "The domestication and improvement of seeds is the work of generations, and its influence is indeed significant. However, Wang Qing and his son also made significant contributions to the unification of the Qin Dynasty. I believe Zhu Qing can beat this odds."
Zhu Dan was stunned. The moment Ying Zheng finished speaking, Zhu Dan felt a special luck falling on him.
After a previous experience, she quickly recognized that this good fortune came from Brother Zheng.
The total amount of luck is not as much as that obtained during the initial treatment, but it is still not a small amount.
What's more strange is that after entering the alchemy furnace, it actually merged into the dragon of luck. Unlike other attributes of luck, it did not gradually lose its uniqueness and become attributeless spiritual energy.
Almost instinctively, Zhu Dan thought this was a good thing.
She gave Zheng Ge a bright smile: "Your Majesty, I have received your blessing, and I believe I can succeed."
Zhu Dan felt that his attempt to improve the seeds was like walking on a thin line, with success or failure uncertain.
But now, with Brother Zheng’s push, she feels much more confident.
Zhu Dan was not in a hurry to start. Even if Zi Mu Dan improved the seeds and could successfully plant the seeds, it would take time to harvest more seeds.
She first took the time to make a bracelet for Wang Jian.
I didn't have time to do it when I was refining the mother-child elixir before.
At that time, she was in a hurry to solve the problem of the blast furnace failure. The materials were still being warmed up and the bracelet had not been made.
Although the luck of Wang Jian extracted when refining the elixir was relatively low and the impact was relatively small, Zhu Dan was more cautious towards Wang Jian than he was towards Fusu.
After all, one is a young and upright man, and the other has gray hair and was rescued by the rejuvenation pill.
He really needs luck and is not as resilient as young people like Fusu.
During this time, Zhu Dan was not idle either. He opened the cauldron several times to recover the three kinds of elixirs he had refined before, Hu Hai's weeding elixir, Fusu's rejuvenation elixir and Zhao Gao's transformation elixir.
Among them, Zhao Gao was in the worst mood.
Although the expression on his face was well disguised, Zhu Dan still noticed it keenly, but who cares?
When Zhao Gao was unhappy, she was happy.
However, Hu Hai glanced at his teacher and felt inexplicably comforted.
When he broke his leg before, he was full of resentment and wanted to break other people's legs as well.
Only after experiencing disability could he feel more deeply the beauty of health. But now that he thought about it carefully, compared to the social death that his teacher suffered, he could accept a temporary broken leg and being unable to move freely.
Zhu Dan missed the last time Zhao Gao was killed in the social arena. This time, she rarely stayed in the Xianyang Palace and did not rush to Lantian County, so she saw the scene.
Zhao Gao learned from his last lesson and did not eat the mushrooms.
He even only eats dishes that he can clearly see in order to prevent mistakes in the kitchen and the accidental addition of mushrooms.
He treated the cut pieces so fine that you couldn't tell what they were originally made of as if they were a formidable enemy and wouldn't even touch them.
As for complete dishes, he only eats those that he is familiar with and has confirmed to be ok.
One thing I want to say here is that what he eats the most is tofu.
Firstly, tofu has been widely promoted, and a sufficient number of samples have made him realize that tofu does not affect the human brain like mushrooms. Secondly, tofu is beneficial to the country and the people, and he also wants to borrow some of tofu's luck.
However, despite Zhao Gao's precautions, he still could not escape God's will.
He protected the food, but not the drink.
Zhao Gao usually has a good alcohol tolerance, otherwise he would not drink at this time.
A few days later, seeing that the so-called bad luck had not happened, he relaxed for a rare time and went to his friend's house to have a few drinks with him. Then Zhao Gao, who prided himself on his good alcohol tolerance, got drunk and went crazy.
It turned out that the friend had recently acquired a new kind of wine, which happened to be the one brewed by Li Xueyao.
After she made the pesticide, she turned her attention back to her favorite wine, wanting to make the alcohol that the national master had instructed her to make.
Let’s not talk about the alcohol, but after several experiments, Li Xueyao improved the original winemaking method and produced a batch of strong liquor with a high alcohol content.
Given her status, she would certainly not sell it to outsiders, but would only give it to relatives and friends. However, Zhao Gao, her friend, was a wine lover, and he did everything he could to get it.
Because Zhao Gao was Hu Hai's teacher, there was always something subtle between the two young masters. The friend did not dare to tell Zhao Gao, but only said mysteriously that he had obtained a jar of good wine and was reluctant to drink it alone, so he invited Zhao Zhongche to drink with him.
How could Zhao Gao have imagined that the alcohol content of the wine was far beyond his tolerance and he would be drunk directly?
The scene was in chaos.
Zhu Dan was originally watching with great interest, but when he saw Zhao Gao drunk and taking off his clothes, he not only kissed others, but also ignored the difference between men and women, and accepted everyone from nobles to common people and even lower-level slaves, and kissed whoever he could catch.
She couldn't bear to watch it anymore and just ran away.
This is too shocking. I never expected it. Really, who could have thought of it?
Zhao Gao turned out to be a kissing maniac.
If his demeanor and image were completely ruined before, this time his reputation was damaged.
When Zhao Gao woke up, the so-called Zhao Zhongche's homosexuality had spread throughout the Xianyang Palace and was showing signs of spreading further.
Even when Ying Zheng saw Zhao Gao, there was a hint of strangeness in his eyes.
Zhao Gao smiled bitterly and apologized to Ying Zheng: "I will definitely not drink a drop of alcohol from now on. Fortunately, I have been relatively free these few days and have no important tasks to attend to. Otherwise, I am really afraid..."
He didn't say anything else, with a lingering fear on his face.
Ying Zheng comforted Zhao Gao with a few words, gave him a vacation to recuperate, and gave him some things to show that he valued Zhao Gao and would not abandon him just because of Zhao Gao's social death, but he did not promise not to use him to make elixirs in the future.
Because just like Zhu Dan said, the Transformation Pill is really useful.
Zhu Dan listed a lot of technologies that could be developed with the Transformation Pill. With the Transformation Pill, they could avoid many detours and save a lot of time.
Ying Zheng would never allow Zhao Gao to retreat. At best, he would give Zhao Gao some rewards to make up for the harm suffered by the other party.
Originally, Ying Zheng guessed some clues from the effects of the elixir refined with his luck and Zhu Dan's attitude.
However, he used Zhao Gao because he was a useful person. At present, Zhao Gao was conscientious and diligent, so he would not do anything.
When I think about what happened to Zhao Gao, I can only feel sympathy.
Among the side effects of the elixir so far, Zhao Gao's is the most unpleasant.
Zhao Gao thanked him and left, returning to his palace, the decadent look on his face fading away.
There is a saying that goes, "If you keep losing face, you will eventually get used to it."
Zhao Gao was undoubtedly a man with very strong psychological qualities. To a certain extent, he was able to leave his name in history, even if it was a bad reputation, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
After Zhao Gao discovered that he had been killed again, he felt a brief moment of shame and anger, and immediately thought about how to turn this loss into profit.
He had no way to change the Imperial Master's mind, and he knew that he could never defeat the Imperial Master, so he could only hold on to the King's favor.
Just like when Meng Yi wanted to sentence him to death according to Qin law, it was the king who spoke up and let him escape.
Zhao Gao didn't know much information and didn't have the foresight of Ying Zheng.
He didn't know that his life was no longer in danger. In fact, Zhu Dan wanted him to be alive and well more than anyone else at this moment.
Maybe Zhu Dan would have to think of a way to give Zhao Gao some self-defense items. Of course, she hadn't thought of this at the moment.
After all, Zhao Gao is not like Zheng Ge, who only has two years left before his death.
Zhao Gao comforted himself that at least the news now was that he was homosexual and the king did not suspect that he coveted the concubines, although he no longer had this ability when his family made a mistake and he was sent to the palace as a slave.
He can also stand up to scrutiny.
But isn’t this because of the incident with Queen Mother Zhao Ji?
What is Zhao? This person is the stain that the king cannot erase.
So Zhao Gao tried his best to avoid the king from associating him with the king, and in this way, he coaxed himself.
But when he lowered his head and saw the bracelet in his hand, his face fell again.
Because the bracelet had faded visibly, it was obvious that he had contributed a lot of luck to the bracelet during the violent fluctuations just now.
Zhao Gao tried hard to remain calm. He didn't want to fill the bracelet again so quickly and start refining the elixir again.
After such a harvest, Zhu Dan had a lot of stock in her hands. Actually, she had no intention of refining the next elixir right now. She planned to test whether it was feasible to improve the seeds of the mother elixir.
However, before she went to the farm, the National Master's Hall welcomed a guest.
Li Si.
There is no doubt that many people who had originally planned to recommend themselves became hesitant after hearing what Zhao Gao had said before.
Even this time, Fusu and Hu Hai suffered less.
But Zhao Gao's misfortune was so obvious that no one could ignore it.
For a moment, Meng Yi hesitated. He could be loyal to the king and would never regret it even if he died, but he could accept taking the knife for the king. But this kind of thing... Forgive Meng Shangqing for needing some time to prepare himself mentally.
On the contrary, Li Si made a decisive decision after thinking for a day and a night, and this was the time for him to show his ability.
The more miserable he is and the greater the price he pays, the more the king will feel sorry for him.
Especially after learning that Meng Yi stayed indoors, Li Si felt that he should make this trip.
Of course Zhu Dan would not refuse Li Si's request.
Given the other party's fame, it was a foregone conclusion that he could refine the elixir, not to mention that Zhu Dan had already collected his luck before.
When he watched him making and using pills several times.
Tangyuan has roughly analyzed that Li Si's luck is no less than Wang Jian's.
As for what kind of elixir the other party could refine, Zhu Dan felt that he still needed to think about and design it based on the analysis results of luck.
She did not give Li Si an answer immediately, but only gave him a bracelet.
