Chapter 30: Heartbeat and Red Face Tribulation

Wu Yan quietly entered the Yunhai Cave and carefully checked the two cave entrances. He did not find anything unusual, so he walked to an inconspicuous corner and moved a stone in the corner. After moving the stone, there was a pile of rubble that looked normal.

Wu Yan carefully pushed the rubble away, revealing a small iron ring. He lifted the iron ring up and pulled out a small metal box. After a complicated unlocking technique, the box suddenly made a light click and opened. Wu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, took out a small cloth bag containing mysterious green soil from the small box, and walked to a corner of the medicine field.

He poured out a small half of the green soil from the small cloth bag, his eyes turned back and forth between the green soil in his hand and the more than 20 strange herbs in the corner of the medicine field that exuded strange fragrance, with a look of determination and pain on his face. He evenly buried the small half of the green soil under the more than 20 strange herbs.

After doing all this, Wu Yan carefully put the bag back into the small box, and then put the small box back to its original place, covered it with broken stones, and then covered it with a big stone.

Wu Yan began to work in Yunhai Cave without touching the ground. He placed all kinds of strange tools on the table in the cave, and then took a pile of dried auxiliary herbs from a large sunny stone outside the cave, and began to grind them into powder, preparing to prepare several medicines.

There are four kinds of medicines he wants to prepare this time. Two strange poisonous medicines, one is called "Heart Beat" and the other is called "Red Face Robbery".

These two poisons are recorded in the "Poison Chapter" in the second half of "Pharmacy Classics". It is said that they have been lost for nearly a thousand years. Wu Yan believes that even the owner of "Pharmacy Classics", Master Feng, may not be able to prepare these two poisons.

"Heart Beat", from the name, you can see the power of this poison. As the name suggests, anyone who is poisoned by this poison will die immediately as long as his heart beats. If there is no antidote, if the poisoned person does not want to die immediately, he must control his heart and stop it from beating. But once the heart stops beating, how can a person still be alive? This seems to be a very contradictory thing, but in fact, there are people who can do it.

It is said that more than a thousand years ago, after this poison was developed, a strange man in the world was poisoned by this poison. He probably knew how powerful this poison was, but coincidentally, he practiced a tortoise breathing skill, which could actually control his heartbeat. He survived with this strange skill, and finally asked his master to help him find an antidote to get rid of this poison.

However, such strange people are rare in the world. Even if someone practices the tortoise breathing skill, it may not be like that strange man, who can stop the heart from beating and still be alive.

Wu Yan is convinced that Master Feng will definitely not be able to prepare this poison because the three main medicines required to prepare this poison all require poisonous herbs that have grown for hundreds of years. The growth cycle of ordinary poisonous grass is only more than half a year, how can there be poisonous grass that can grow for hundreds of years?

The plants that can grow for hundreds or thousands of years in legends are all spiritual creatures, and they can never appear in the secular world.

Fortunately, the poisonous grass used for the three main medicines can be found on the cliffs of Qiancao Valley. The more than 20 strange grasses with strange fragrance planted in the corner of Wu Yan Yunhai Cave were secretly found by him on the cliffs of Qiancao Valley in the past month. Each of these poisonous grasses is a poisonous grass that can grow for hundreds or thousands of years.

The reason why these poisonous grasses could not grow for hundreds or even thousands of years before was not due to their properties, but Qiancao Valley was not a place where they could grow for many years. If nothing unexpected happened, these grasses would wither and die after a few years at most. I really don’t know how these strange grasses grew from here.

Wu Yan has the mysterious green soil that can accelerate the rapid growth of herbs, so he can naturally get the mature bodies of more than 20 strange poisonous grasses.

As for the poison "Red Face Tribulation", to be honest, it is a poison that makes people love and hate it, especially for women.

Who in the world does not want to be forever young and beautiful? But who can do it?

This is probably the dream that everyone has dreamed of since humans have the sense of beauty, ugliness and shame. However, nothing is difficult in the world if you are determined. Someone really found a way to keep your face in the state of youth. This person is the one who invented the poison "Red Face Tribulation".

More than 600 years ago, there was an incredible sect in the world, Xiaoyao Sect. The leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, Xiaoyaozi, was romantic and handsome. There were countless women who admired him. But he only loved his little sister Zhu Hongyan.

This Zhu Hongyan was indeed born with a beautiful face, and was praised by the people of the world as the most beautiful woman in the world at that time. Xiaoyaozi and Zhu Hongyan were brothers and sisters, from the same school, childhood sweethearts, and were praised by the people of the world at that time as "the two pillars of love and sword".

Unfortunately, time is merciless and the world makes people grow old. After they reached their thirties, Xiaoyaozi became more mature and handsome, but Zhu Hongyan became older and less beautiful. For this reason, Zhu Hongyan once thought of leaving Xiaoyaozi and finding a corner where no one cares about her and slowly grow old. How could the infatuated Xiaoyaozi allow such a thing to happen? He tried every possible way and devoted himself to developing a drug that could keep people young forever.

After nearly ten years of hard work, he finally succeeded in developing it. The ecstatic Xiaoyaozi named this medicine "Hongyan" and gave it to Zhu Hongyan. Zhu Hongyan, who was almost 40 years old at this time, thought that she had become haggard and old due to long-term worries. However, after she took this medicine, she actually recovered her appearance in just one day.

After the advent of this medicine, it once set off a bloody storm in the martial arts world at that time, and the Xiaoyao Sect was almost wiped out. Xiaoyaozi had no choice but to take Zhu Hongyan and retreat from the martial arts world, and disappeared.

When the two disappeared, the prescription of "Zhuyan", which can make people look young forever, spread out. For a time, there were countless handsome men and beautiful women of old monster age in the martial arts world, which once made the whole martial arts world look weird.

But not long after, everyone who took "Zhuyan" became crazy and murderous within a year, and then a collective poisoning broke out, and the tragic incident of rotting all over the body broke out. At this time, people realized that "Zhu Yan", a drug that defied heaven, was actually a very vicious chronic poison.

Later, after the devastating incident that made people in the martial arts world shudder, the poison "Zhu Yan" was renamed "Zhu Yan Jie" to commemorate the predecessors who died because of it and to warn future generations.

Many descendants of the martial arts masters who took "Zhu Yan Jie" began to look for Xiaoyaozi again, trying to seek revenge on him. Of course, they may still hold a glimmer of hope, maybe Xiaoyaozi might have an antidote that can neutralize this poison?

Unfortunately, it is not known whether Xiaoyaozi and his wife also died of poison, or whether they had an antidote and retired completely and disappeared. This incident gradually became a legend.

The reason why Wu Yan wanted to prepare the poison "Zhu Yan" was purely for fun. In particular, he was very interested in the rumor that those monster-level old people turned into handsome men and beautiful women after taking "Zhu Yan Jie", which should be fun, right? However, deep in his heart, he may have a hidden hope. If he could formulate an antidote that could reconcile the "Red Face Tribulation", so that the person who took it would not have to worry about dying from the poison, and could always keep his youthful appearance, wouldn't it be very interesting?

Who doesn't want to stay young forever?
