"Wait a minute." Lu Bufan made a stop gesture and asked urgently: "You just said that shortly after taking two 'Peiyuan Pills', the Qi began to become turbid. Is that true?"

"Yeah, that's right." Lu Zhan nodded.

Lu Bufan asked urgently: "Where did the two 'Peiyuan Pills' you took at that time come from?"

Lu Zhan said: "It was the last time Coach Gao bought it from the secret workshop and bought 180 pieces at once."

Lu Bufan's face gradually turned cold, and then Zhan Jin Jie Tie said: "Don't take these pills Zhan'er for the time being. I will find a reliable person to identify them again as soon as possible."

Lu Zhan looked into Lu Bufan's eyes and asked: "Master Hou, do you suspect that this batch of pills is poisonous? But I have already taken many of these pills before, and I don't seem to notice any problems."

"No, it's not poison." Lu Bufan said: "If the pill was mixed with poison, with your Qi Condensation Realm master's cultivation, you would have sensed it long ago. And ordinary poisons are not effective for people with cultivation levels above the middle stage of Qi Condensation Realm."

It won’t cause much harm. I’m worried that there is a certain amount of fake elixirs mixed in this batch of second-level elixirs.”

"Fake elixir? No way." Lu Zhan said in surprise: "A second-level elixir costs more than five thousand taels of silver. Those who can buy it are rich or expensive. If it is really adulterated with fake elixirs, their secret workshop

Isn’t it just that I’m destroying my own brand, and I’m not afraid of being blamed by the Secret Workshop Alliance?”

"Hmph, the world is so chaotic now. As secret shops in various places that are closely related to thieves and gangsters, how many of them are really honest and honest." Lu Bufan frowned and sneered, showing that he was a tyrant in an instant.

His true character: "Anyway, be careful and sail the boat for ten thousand years. Today, Zhan'er, give all the remaining elixirs to Elder He and ask him to go to other cities to find two more reputable secret shops for appraisal.

You must confirm that it is safe before you can continue to eat it.”

"Yes, I understand." Lu Zhan nodded in agreement.

"If nothing happens, you can go back now. You can rest and recuperate." Lu Bufan waved his hand weakly. As he said that, he lay down on the bed. His energy was completely exhausted and he could no longer hold on.

When Lu Zhan left the "Hundred Bamboo Garden", the sky was already bright.

He walked back to the "Jingtao Garden" and handed over all the uneaten "Puiyuan Pills" purchased from the secret workshop to Elder He, and told him the thrilling scene that happened the night before.

After Elder He heard the whole story, without saying a word, he quickly left the Lu Mansion with the problematic elixirs and went to secret workshops in other cities to find senior appraisers for appraisal. This time he went out personally and did not

Then leave it to others.

At the evening of the third day, Elder He returned to Lu Mansion. He took those pills to the "Bai Bamboo Garden" and reported to Lu Bufan and Lu Zhan: "It has been confirmed that the remaining one hundred and seventy-seven pills

Seventy-seven of the 'Peiyuan Pills' are fake."

"As expected," Lu Bufan said with a cold snort: "This batch of pills has been adulterated, and more than seventy pills were adulterated at one time. How bold, how abominable."

"However, even if it is adulterated and has no medicinal effect at most, how can it cause such turbidity in the qi in the body?" Lu Zhan asked puzzledly: "Generally speaking, fake elixirs only need to be similar in appearance, and at most they should be mixed with a little something.

Harmless ingredients, such as flour, syrup, rubber and the like, will be digested quickly after being eaten, so how can they enter the Qi circulation and have an impact?"

"As for the deputy hall master's question, there is a fundamental difference between these fake elixirs bought from the secret workshop and the fake medicines we usually use to treat diseases."

Elder He stroked his beard and explained: "Because it is a medicine of such high value, the buyers are either rich or expensive, so the method of testing the authenticity of the elixir is much better. Therefore, this fake elixir will never be just the same as the ordinary one."

Counterfeit medicines are just as similar in appearance, and they must use more tricks to conceal the truth and deceive others.”

Elder He sits in the Jinyan Hall and has read many classics, so he obviously has a lot of research on this subject.

He continued to explain: "In addition, the secret shop attaches great importance to its own reputation, so even if they make fakes, they have to make the fake medicines look like real ones in all aspects. Generally speaking, the contents of a second-level elixir

Most of the ingredients are relatively common auxiliary medicinal materials, which are not difficult to buy on the market; and the reason why the price of the second-level elixir is so high is actually that the reason why the price of the second-level elixir is so expensive is that the three and five flavors cherish the unusual formula of the main ingredients.

superior.

In order to make fake elixirs that are just like the real ones in terms of smell and color, some counterfeiters will use materials with similar effects but much cheaper prices to replace those rare materials that are originally expensive. For example, this 'Peiyuan Dan'

Well, among them, 'Snow Oyster Pearl' and 'Black Poison Swamp Clam' are the two most difficult to find as the main raw materials for alchemy. They are both worth thousands of gold. Please familiarize yourself with the secret workshop.

A senior appraiser from the Ministry of Science and Technology has appraised the 'Peiyuan Pills' purchased from the Yan family's secret workshop, and found that there is no trace of 'Snow Oyster Pearls' and 'Black Poison Swamp' in the seventy-seven fake pills in question.

Instead of the ingredients of "Red Clam", we use "Arctic Sea Pearl" and "Green Lake Black-backed Toad", two cheaper ingredients.

Among them, the 'Green Lake Black-backed Toad' itself contains a strange poison. Of course, if a master of the Qi Condensation Realm consumes it in small amounts, it will not cause any trouble for the time being. It will only accumulate more and more in the Dantian, causing certain sequelae.

However, if the amount taken at one time is much higher than the normal amount, it will cause the toxins accumulated in the body to explode, causing the Qi to become turbid in an instant.

As he spoke, Elder He looked at Lu Zhan and said with a strange expression: "Deputy Hall Master, it stands to reason that the normal dosage of the 'Peiyuan Pill' when practicing in the Qi Condensation Realm is that you can only take one pill at a time, and it takes at least three times.

It takes five days to digest the effect of the medicine, so even if you take the fake elixir mixed with the 'Green Lake Black-backed Toad', there will generally not be much danger. But if you take too much,

Then the danger of becoming possessed by demons is inevitable."

After hearing this, Lu Zhan smiled bitterly in his heart: "So, I am not an ordinary overdose. Others take one pill every three to five days, but I take two pills every day."

He didn't want to say this to his mouth, as this might frighten Elder He.

So he quickly changed the subject: "How can this Yan family's secret shop be so shameless?"

In his excitement, he said loudly: "The price of each 'Peiyuan Pill' is more than 5,000 taels of silver. They mixed 77 pills at once. If you add the few pills I ate, it will be 80 taels."

There are many counterfeit pills, which is equivalent to stealing more than 400,000 taels of silver in vain, and endangering the lives of me, Lu Zhan and the Marquis! Such evil deeds cannot be taken lightly, and this justice must be exacted.

"

"Yes, they did go too far in this matter." Elder He also looked angry: "Not to mention almost killing people, just because of their deception, I don't know how many people have been killed before.

.They need to be punished properly."

He put away the fake elixirs and said to the two of them: "I will take the people from Jinyan Hall and Huyuan Hall to the secret workshop to seek justice. I must give them an explanation." With that, he turned and walked towards the door.

Go.

"Old He, wait." Lu Bufan had a solid state and called out to Elder He, "I think it's better not to make too much noise about this first. Maybe the Yan Family Secret Shop itself didn't realize that these were fake elixirs.

I was deceived. I think this is good. Whoever you asked to buy these elixirs, just ask that person to take the fake elixirs to the secret workshop and ask them to replace them with real elixirs. As long as they can be replaced, we

The Lu family will not pursue the case for the time being."

"Okay then, Mr. Marquis." Elder He stopped and sighed: "I asked that stupid instructor Gao to purchase these elixirs. I will ask him to replace all the fake elixirs right now."

After he finished, he hesitated for a while, as if he had something to say, but finally sighed dejectedly, opened the door and walked out.

After Elder He left, Lu Zhan smiled coldly and looked at Lu Bufan: "For this fatal sin committed by the Yan family's secret workshop, the Marquis' attitude seems to be to settle the matter and let others bully him!"

Although he was full of gratitude to Lu Bufan, he couldn't stand the way the righteous and brave prince was afraid of his head and tail, and died in despair. This Lu Zhan was naturally proud and had the spirit of a young man. If he encountered such an insult to his head, he would not be able to do anything.

If you act tooth for tooth, your thoughts will not be clear, which will affect your cultivation of character.

Lu Bufan also sighed and said: "These are troubled times, and I really don't want to make too many enemies. The secret workshop and the Yan Mansion are colluding with each other, and they have spent great efforts to bribe the world's secret workshop alliance to support them. Then they are stronger than us."

Much stronger. Over the years, the Yan family has been encroaching on our Lufu's sphere of influence, and now it has accelerated the pace of annexation. They are worried that they have no reason to find trouble and launch a fatal blow to our Lufu. If because of these fake elixirs,

Just start a war with the secret workshop and the Yan Mansion. Obviously, you are not fully prepared, and you will definitely lose more than you gain."

Lu Zhan completely disagreed with his conservative and pessimistic statement, "Master Hou, you are much older than me, and you should know better that people's greed is always endless. Sometimes you take a step back and want to rest.

Man, I'm afraid others won't accept your feelings and think you are tolerant enough. Instead, they will think you are easy to bully, and they will go one step further and beat us to our bones. For this kind of scum, the only way to deal with this kind of scum is to be more ruthless and tougher than him.

This is the king's way. What I believe in is that I will not offend anyone unless they offend me; if someone offends me, I will not forgive them! In this troubled world, we still have to use our hands to carve out a way of life and death. This is the truth. Lord Marquis, this is

Although my way of life, Lu Zhan, is very different from what you usually teach me, I will practice it to the end and will not let the knots in my heart remain buried one after another!"

Lu Bufan looked Lu Zhan up and down, and Su Rong asked: "Oh, then do you have the confidence to use your hands to open up the secret workshop and the path of life and death for the Yan family?"

Lu Zhanfeng smiled lightly and said: "As long as they dare to take the step of bullying others, then I will definitely use my own hands to make all the forces that offend us seek death!"
