Chapter 77 Cold Mountain Ghost Pool

Zian walked over, took the book in her hand and looked at it.

It is said to be a book, but it is actually a very thin book, and it is not printed with movable type, but copied by hand.

The handwriting is already blurred, and the cover is barely readable.

There is a painting in the book, the painting is very simple, the author presumably is not good at painting.

The font is very scribbled, like a snake, meandering on the paper, but it is still legible.

However, what shocked Zian was that this book was not written in traditional characters, but in simplified characters.

She quickly recognized the words. It was written in the book that there was a mountain outside Beijing. This mountain was called Hanshan. There was a pond on Hanshan. The empress dowager, Long Zhanyan, and the other person is her handmaid, Ah Snake.

The book mainly introduces the function of medicine pools. This cold mountain is just named Hanshan, not an iceberg. Every plant and tree on the mountain is full of medicine. It is the medicine pond.

The water in the medicine pool can heal all poisoning injuries, even a dying person can be cured by soaking in the medicine pool for an hour.

Zi'an closed the book, deeply shocked.

Because, the last sentence said to soak in the medicine pool for an hour, not an hour.

The unit of time here is hours, not hours.

Her heart was pounding and she asked Yuan Shi, "Where did you get this book?"

Yuan Shi said: "It used to be caught in the golden needle technique, but it just fell out a few days ago, so I separated it."

"Who is this Long Zhanyan?" Zi'an asked.

Yuan Shi said: "Long Zhanyan, the Queen Mother of the Dragon, was named the Empress Dowager, and she was Huizu's mother, but Huizu was not born to her. There are different opinions about this Queen Mother, but the more orthodox historical introduction She was sent to be buried in the palace back then, but the emperor didn't want her to be buried. Instead, he gave her supreme power to rule the harem, and supported Huizu to ascend the throne and listen to politics behind the curtain. She was a very powerful figure. She also had no children , was with the regent Murong Qingtian back then, she did have a maid named A Snake by her side, and after she passed away, A Snake also died."

After Yuan finished speaking, she paused, "There are also rumors in the market that the Queen Mother Long is a monster."

"Monster?" Zian shook his head, "This is too absurd."

However, the fact that she traveled through time was itself absurd.

"Yes, it is indeed absurd, so not many people believe it." Yuan said.

"Why do you guess that the Dragon Queen Mother is a monster?" Zi'an asked curiously, people don't spread it for no reason, there must be something wrong.

Yuan Shi opened the little book in her hand and turned to the last page, "Look here, there is a little snake drawn here."

"Here?" Zi'an took a closer look, "This is where the signature was originally signed."

"Yes, back then, some people in the palace said that they saw the maid Ah Snake turned into a snake after the death of the Empress Dowager, and even swept away the empress dowager's body."

Zi'an couldn't help being surprised, this was rumored in the palace? How could the palace allow such rumors?

"If there is such a legend in the palace, shouldn't it be forbidden?" Zi'an asked.

"Why can't it be restrained? Back then, Huizu made a rule that anyone who discussed this matter in the palace would be beheaded. However, every three years, people in the palace were released, and these rumors spread."

"Is that what people say every time they are released?"

Yuan shook her head, "I don't know. After all, so many years have passed, and the Huizu Dynasty has been more than 20 years away."

"How old was Huizu when he came to the throne? After Huizu's death, the first emperor came to the throne. How long did the first emperor reign? How long is the emperor now?" Zi'an asked.

"Huizu seems to have ascended the throne at the age of sixteen. When he died, the three life spans of heaven, earth and human beings added up to eighty-one, which means that the first emperor was already sixty-two. , counting, it has been fourteen years."

Zi'an straightened out the year, "That is to say, when the Queen Mother Long entered the palace, the emperor's husband died, and he helped Huizu ascend the throne. When Huizu left, the total of heaven, earth and people was eighty-one, which is also the correct age for death. At seventy-nine, it has been about twenty-six years since Hui Zu died, that is to say, if Queen Mother Long is still alive, she will be over a hundred years old."

"Yes." Yuan Shi calculated, "Probably so."

Zian was silent for a while, "There are many people who can live to be a hundred years old."

"But the funeral of Empress Dowager Long was very sensational back then. She is dead." Yuan waved her hand, "Don't worry about it. This is just unofficial history, and it may not be true. I can't go up either."

"Mother, besides this book that records Yaochi, what other books have you read that recorded it?" Zian knew that she was well-read. If she hadn't read any books on this subject, probably few others knew about it.

Zian also felt that she was a little sick and went to the doctor in a hurry, because, according to her understanding of Murong Jie's injury, he couldn't survive this test, mainly because he lost too much blood.

Although it does not conform to the theory of modern medicine to believe in medicine pools and the like.

However, she has also studied traditional Chinese medicine and knows that every grass, leaf and water in the world can be used as medicine, which is an unspeakable mystery.

In particular, it is not unscientific that geology, air, and herbs can become holy water for healing and even detoxification if they work together well.

Yuan thought for a while, "I haven't heard much about Yaochi, but I have read about Guichi in a book, but this book from the Daxing Dynasty records Guichi, saying that the place Hanshan was not called Hanshan, I don’t remember the name of the mountain. At that time, there was a doctor named Lin Haihai, a woman, who opened a medical clinic in central Beijing. At that time, many medical bureaus raised the price of herbal medicines. Plant herbs, this mountain is Hanshan."

"Then the Daxing Dynasty really has a doctor like Lin Haihai..." Zi An paused, Lin Haihai? This name is so familiar.

Lin Haihai, the granddaughter of Professor Lin, she died...

My God, could it be that he traveled to that Daxing Dynasty?

In the past, if someone told her about time-traveling, she wouldn't believe it if she was killed, but after she time-traveled, everyone seemed to be time-traveling.

That Murong Zhuangzhuang's temperament is so forthright and informal, no matter what the worldliness of this era is, she suspects that he is time-traveling.

Zian tried his best to convince himself that there really is a medicine pond in this world, and that Murong Jie would be saved.

However, she is also a rational person after all. Although she has heard so much from Yuan Shi and read the information, it is not enough to convince her to really fully believe this matter, so she cannot really fight against all opinions. The regent moved to Hanshan.

Although, even though this book is in simplified Chinese and uses hours as the unit of time, it is still not enough for her to make up her mind to make this decision.

And the most important thing is that no one else knows about the medicine pond, only Hanshan. Once she goes to Hanshan without this medicine pond, she will really commit a heinous crime.
