Zhao Xing, who was dressed in regular clothes, arrived at Aries Temple again with Guo Guangsheng. The receptionist was still the lukewarm little Taoist priest, and the yard was still so quiet. But as soon as Zhao Xing entered the yard, he smelled a strange fragrance in the yard, and his heart skipped a beat, because this fragrance was very familiar to him in his previous life, and it was the smell of poppy.

The origin of poppy is in West Asia. It was introduced to China as early as the Six Dynasties and was planted. However, poppy cultivation was not widely used, and it was tributed from abroad as a tribute in the Tang Dynasty. However, opium poppy was planted at that time for ornamental purposes only for ornamental use, rather than for drug use. Until the late Ming Dynasty, poppy flowers were still a precious and rare flower tree. During the Chongzhen period, tourist Xu Xiake saw a fire-like poppy flower at the foot of Baiyun Mountain in Guiding, Guizhou Province, which was very surprised and amazing.

Medicinal value has been recorded in medical books since the Song Dynasty. It is used as a special medicine for treating red and white diarrhea. For this reason, poppy seeds are fried and ground into powder, and honey is added to make pills. The patient recovers from the disease after taking 30 pills. In addition, traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in the Song Dynasty also discovered other effects of poppy, such as treating vomiting, abdominal pain, cough and other diseases, and have the effects of nourishing the stomach, regulating the lungs, stools and throat. Therefore, poppy seeds and shells are also regarded as tonics. Su Shi's poem: "The Taoist advises the drinking of chicken sui water, and boys can boil the oriole millet soup" reflects this situation.

In the 17th year of Wanli, opium was included in the list of taxed goods for the first time. In the 43rd year of Wanli, the Ming court stipulated that a tax of one cent and seven cents of silver was levied for every ten kilograms of opium. This shows that the import of opium increased, and there were already a large number of people who ate opium, especially the wealthy landlords on the southeast coast.

But the southern part is fashionable, but there is no such thing in the north yet, so why can I smell this smell here?

When Zhao Xing smelled this smell, an unknown anger and deep hatred couldn't help but rise in his bones. For nothing else, just this one, this Aries View must be eliminated.

After entering the monastery last time again, Guo Guangsheng directly recommended Zhao Xing to Qingxu: "This is my boss, Zhao Xing, Zhao Baihu."

Qingxu just bowed lightly: "I met again, but I don't know if my brother or an adult is still a lord, so I feel respectful."

Zhao Xing also replied calmly: "I dare not, I dare not." Then he changed the subject: "How should I stop the matter last time? I just want to be quiet and don't want to make things worse. What conditions do Taoist have? Let's get it out."

Qingxu smiled and said, "Sir, I'm joking. I won't talk about that. Please sit down and have a cup of tea to calm my heart." Then, without waiting for Zhao Xing to object, he ordered the little Taoist boy next to the door: "Since you are a distinguished guest, your heart is also stronger, let's secretly make good flower tea."

The little Taoist priest bowed and agreed and went out.

After a while, I came in with an exquisite tea box.

Qingxu took it, opened it, pinched it and put it in a few exquisite and delicate tea cups on the tea table. He lifted the boiling water on the brazier, but did not make it for a while. He smiled and introduced to Zhao Xing: "Xiaodao was born in Jiangnan and had a little research on tea ceremony. In order to increase the effect of cleansing and recuperation, he specially made this tea according to the secret recipe left by his master. Drinking it can make people feel very happy and calm. Today I would like to ask the adults to taste it."

Then, after testing the temperature with your hands, I brewed three cups, delivered two of them to Zhao Xing and Guo Guangsheng, and made a letter of invitation.

Zhao Xing didn't answer, but just tilted his head to look at the tea in the teacup in front of him.

It is slightly yellow and clear, with a strange fragrance mixed with the fragrance of tea. As the water vapor of the tea rises, it makes people feel refreshed when they smell it.

Zhao Xing frowned, quickly avoided the fragrance, and said in his heart: "Give me a trick."

In fact, Guo Guangsheng was originally quite leisurely and still had some hobbies about tea ceremony. When he saw the taste of tea, he called out good tea in his heart. When he saw the hunting, he couldn't help but bring a cup of tea. But when he saw Zhao Xing frowned and did not move the tea, he didn't know that it was strange, but the boss didn't move and could not move himself, so he sat up straight and avoided the temptation of the fragrance of tea.

Zhao Xing looked at Qingxu with fun: "Master, do you get such fragrant tea treats every time the guests come to you?"

Seeing that Zhao Xing was not drinking, Qingxu smiled, picked up the one in front of him, sniffed it gently, and then slowly tasted the tea. After drinking half a cup of tea, he signaled to Zhao Xing, and then replied with a smile: "Sir, joking, this tea is very difficult to prepare. How can I bear to give up a group of ordinary people? Only those who are noble and have an extraordinary temperament and have a connection with immortality will I take out the hospitality. Speak, sir, this is a rare top-quality."

Zhao Xing was still unmoved and raised his own topic again seriously: "What do you say about my sister?"

The tone was already aggressive and a little impatient.

When Qingxu saw Zhao Xing's attitude was firm, he had to put down the teacup and shook his head gently: "What a pity, what a pity." I don't know if it was a pity for this tea or a pity for Zhao Xing's sister to not be a saint. But in the end, the atmosphere was relieved and he said to Zhao Xing with a smile: "Grand sister is destined to be a saint. If she becomes a saint, she will be the third generation of the Fulu Gui family. However, since the adults insist on it again and again, let's give up."

Zhao Xing did not expect that yesterday he firmly rejected Guo Guangsheng's plea, but today he agreed so readily, and he didn't know what mystery he was doing.

It may also be that he did not have his routine, and he may know that it is difficult for him to mess with him, so he gave up.

So he stood up and bowed to Qingxu: "Then thank you for your understanding. Today's feelings will be thanked again in the future and say goodbye."

Qingxu smiled and saw him off: "Let's go slowly."

Watching Zhao Xing and Guo Guangsheng walk out of the courtyard, Qingxu stood there squinted his eyes and said silently.

The little Taoist priest who came back after seeing off the guests saw two cups of tea that did not move on the coffee table, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Why didn't they drink?"

Qingxu murmured to himself in an answer that was not asked: "The momentum is calm and capable, and the mind is as meticulous as the hair, but it is not triggered. This person will definitely make great achievements in the future."

The little Taoist priest asked carefully: "What should we do?"

Qingxu whispered: "This child has already noticed our clever plan, but he can't bear it. In the future, he will become a major problem for us. We must pinch him and turn it into a great disaster. Zhao Xing, I will not let you go."
