It was almost noon when Huang Shaohong went out to the Shuanghuafang Lane in Arrow Bridge. He was holding a jar of realgar wine in his hand, which was a gift for his guests.

After all, it was the Dragon Boat Festival, and no matter what the other party had in mind, he couldn't go to the banquet empty-handed, so he asked Quanzhenzi to help him prepare these two jars of realgar wine, planning to drink it with Bai Suzhen then.

However, there is something special about these two bottles of realgar wine. They are made from a piece of thousand-year-old realgar wine that Quanzhenzi got when he was wandering around the world. He took a piece of it and ground it into powder to make the 'thousand-year realgar wine'!

The person who said it is a bit nonsense. This realgar is a mineral. If you pick a piece of it at random, the formation time will be millions of years at least. How about thousands of years? Isn’t this deceiving people!

You are right, but although they are all realgar, this realgar is not the other realgar.

Everyone knows that realgar can repel snakes and insects, but in fact, some scientists in later generations have conducted experiments and found that realgar's efficacy in killing insects is quite good, but its effect on various snakes is much worse.

In fact, there is a simple truth to this. Just like cooking, when you fry 'green pepper and potato slices', you can't just put green peppers and potatoes, right?

If that were the case, there would be absolutely nothing to eat!

First, put the chopped green onion in the pot. During the stir-frying process, you also need to add salt and chicken essence to season. When it comes out of the pot, add some minced garlic to increase the aroma of the dish.

This is a real 'green pepper potato chips'.

The same is true for realgar. If you want to maximize its effect on suppressing snakes and insects, you have to add a lot of medicinal materials and cook it.

After the preparation is completed, it is sealed and stored in a jar, and then taken out after three to five months. The many medicinal properties are mixed together and twisted into one, so that the realgar can exert its greatest effect in restraining snakes and insects.

When preparing realgar and medicinal materials, only air-dried medicinal powder is used without any juice. Therefore, after sealing, the medicinal properties are not bad. The longer the sealing time, the more powerful the effect of realgar.

In the same way, Daomen's cinnabar also needs to be specially processed and accumulated over many years to be more effective.

Quanzhenzi obtained this thousand-year-old piece of realgar, which is the processed realgar and has been sealed in the jar for at least a thousand years. The Chinese medicine powder originally put into the jar has completely become one with the realgar, and the entire realgar has crystallized.

When Huang Shaohong saw this piece of realgar, he even thought it was a piece of light yellow crystal, crystal clear without any impurities.

Quan Zhenzi told Huang Shaohong that realgar wine made from thousand-year-old realgar is colorless and odorless, and its toxicity has been neutralized. An ordinary person can remove the filth in the body and strengthen his body by drinking one cup a year.

Of course Huang Shaohong doesn't care what happens to people if they drink it. What he cares about is what happens to snakes if they drink it.

Quan Zhenzi said categorically:

"Even if you become a snake and insect spirit in the climate, if you drink one cup, your body will become weak and ready to be slaughtered!"

This was not an empty talk by Quanzhenzi, but he had seen a record about Thousand Years of Realgar in a Taoist Miscellaneous Notes, and that was what it said.

This is also the reason why Quanzhenzi, a guy who has never cultivated a single golden elixir, dares to trouble the two demons Bai and Qing. This thousand-year realgar is his support.

Huang Shaohong was immediately happy when he heard it. He did not doubt the records in the miscellany written by Quanzhenzi.

Because whether it is in the TV series "New White" or the movie "Green Snake", or even in folk myths and legends, Bai Qing will be affected by realgar to varying degrees, let alone the thousand-year realgar in front of him. Compared with Bai Qing, he is more restrained.

sharp.

Huang Shaohong immediately asked Quanzhenzi to prepare a jar of realgar wine and take it to Bai Mansion as a gift.

If the two snakes, Bai and Qing, had bad intentions, then he would have tried to get them to drink the wine during the banquet. If not, he would have poured the two jars of wine over. Thinking that the thousand-year realgar wine had little effect, he could still suppress Bai Qing to some extent.

Qiantang County is not a big city. Huang Shaohong asked about the route and quickly arrived at the entrance of Shuanghuafang Lane in Arrow Bridge.

Standing at the entrance of the alley and looking around, I saw a water alley in the middle with a stone bridge on it, which is the so-called Arrow Bridge.

The other three sides are densely populated residential areas, which are very lively during the festival. Only one side is a lonely big house, deserted, with a plaque hanging in front of the door with the word "White Mansion" written on it.

Huang Shaohong nodded, this should be it.

We walked up the stone bridge at the entrance of the alley, crossed the water channel, and walked to the gate of Baifu. Just as we were about to knock on the door, we suddenly turned around and looked towards the lively market opposite.

His eyes were like lightning, and he glanced over, only to see that the market was bustling with people, and both sides of the street were lined with enthusiastic and shouting vendors. It looked bustling and lively, and there was nothing unusual about it.

At this time, the door of Bai Mansion suddenly opened, and Bai Fu had already welcomed him out. Seeing Huang Shaohong, he quickly bowed respectfully and said:

"Mr. Huang, my girl said that you have arrived and asked me to come out to greet you!"

Huang Shaohong glanced at the street market behind him again and found nothing wrong. He turned around and smiled:

"Then let's go!"

After saying that, he walked into the Bai Mansion, and then the door of the house was closed again by Bai Fu.

When the gate was closed, at the food stall across the street, King Jinba said in surprise:

"This kid is so alert. If it weren't for your profound Taoist skills and quick reactions, senior brother, maybe we would have been discovered by him. In that case, we would have taken action in advance!"

Wang Daoling smiled contentedly after hearing this:

"This is just my Maoshan's 'eyesight trick'. When he looks over from the opposite side, you and I will become one with the scenery, and there will be no clues at all!"

Dharma King Jinba praised at the right moment:

"Senior brother, you are indeed very capable. You can deploy such spells without even seeing how you move. But you are much better than me, junior brother!"

Wang Daoling's expression became more and more proud, but he said politely:

"A small spell is nothing. Besides, don't think too highly of that boy. He is a great master of martial arts. It is normal for the five senses to be strong, but in front of my Maoshan Taoism, he is just a piece of cake!"

With a 'pop' sound, a teapot was thrown on the table in front of the two of them, and a lot of tea inside spilled out.

A rich and wealthy landlady appeared beside the table and said in a loud voice:

"What side dishes are you ordering? I didn't hear clearly!"

King Jinba waved his hand: "If you don't order side dishes, go away!"

The landlady pointed at Wang Daoling and said, "The Taoist priest said you should order a side dish!"

Jin Ba said impatiently: "If you say it's not right, it's not right. Why don't you go away!"

The proprietress had a fierce temper. She glared and suddenly became unhappy:

"Oh, let me tell you, you two are dressed like shit, but why don't you talk to people or do things..."

"Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. How many guests are there coming and going? You guys have been occupying a table all morning, and you haven't even ordered a side dish. How shameless are you? I can't bear with you for a long time. Why don't you give in?

Everyone is commenting, isn’t this delaying my business!”

Everyone else nodded when they heard this. Why are you sitting here without ordering anything? Isn’t it affecting other people’s business?

When Dharma King Jinba saw everyone around him looking over, his eyes widened and he was about to get angry.

Although Wang Daoling was a demon, he was an authentic Maoshan sect. Of course, he was not willing to let Jin Ba ruin his reputation. He quickly held down Jin Ba's arm and smiled at the proprietress:

"Yes, it's the side dishes I ordered. I'll just serve them whatever wines and dishes they specialize in!"

The landlady then put on a smiling face:

"I just said, Master, you are a wealthy Taoist priest, you are really good, but what, this Dragon Boat Festival, you have to have a special occasion, the most famous thing is eating five poisonous vegetables!"

"The 'Fried Centipede', 'Braised Scorpion', 'Sweet and Sour Gecko', 'Poria Water Snake Soup', and 'Steamed Husky Toad' in our shop are all very good. Can I serve them to you to try?"

Dharma King Jinba is the spirit of a thousand-year-old centipede, and Wang Daoling is the spirit of a thousand-year toad. When these two people hear the names of dishes such as "fried centipede" and "steamed hashish toad", they almost die.

If you know that they would have stopped doing such things as killing their own kind!

They also knew that these 'five poisonous vegetables' were a specialty of the Dragon Boat Festival, and did not think that others had seen through their identities.

However, they couldn't stand it, so Dharma King Jinba immediately became violent and killed everyone around him.

At the critical moment, Wang Daoling grabbed his arm and stopped him. At the same time, he advised: "In two quarters of an hour, it will be noon. It is the time when the Yang Qi of the Dragon Boat Festival is at its strongest, so it is best for us to take action."

When it comes to timing, you must not let the small lose the big!"

Jin Ba snorted bitterly, suppressed his anger, and said to the proprietress: "Here's a Poria Water Snake Soup to get some luck!"

After speaking, he turned to Wang Daoling and said: "Senior brother, please order one too, I'll treat you!"

Without thinking about it, Wang Daoling said subconsciously: "Then let's have some fried centipedes. I haven't had them for a long time!"

Jin Ba: "......"

It is said that when Huang Shaohong entered the Baifu, he saw that the Baifu garden was not very big, only a hundred steps in diameter.

There is a lotus pond in the garden, and in the middle of the rippling water, a water pavilion with ventilation on all sides has been built.

Although the waterside pavilion is exposed to light from all sides, it is covered with gauze curtains, making it very romantic.

At this time, the white lady, who looks just like Sister Yazhi, charming and gentle as water, is standing in front of the water pavilion with a smile. Behind her, she can vaguely see a short table placed in the water pavilion behind her, and several rows of tables.

Dishes, you can already smell the aroma of the food from a distance.

Madame Bai waved Bai Fu back, opened the gauze curtain herself, and invited Huang Shaohong to come in and sit on the couch on the short side.

Huang Shaohong was not polite. After sitting down, he put the wine jar in his hand on the low table and said with a smile:

"Small means are disrespectful!"

The white lady sat on the couch on the other side of the short table and smiled softly:

"Young master, you are so polite. Suzhen has just prepared these side dishes. Please give them a taste, don't let them cool down, they won't taste good!"

After saying that, she took matters into her own hands, pouring wine and serving dishes for Huang Shaohong.

Huang Shaohong glanced with his eyes, smiled, and did not move his chopsticks in a hurry, but asked: "I wonder what Miss Bai's purpose is for inviting me over? It's not just to treat me to a meal, right?"
