Everyone looked at each other with some solemnity.
As for eating, they all just ate Hu Changan's hot pot.
Is there something wrong with this hot pot?
However, everyone wanted to think about it, but no one said it directly.
After all, they are still on Hu Changan's territory, so they have to give Hu Changan some face.
In addition, this matter is a very serious matter.
If he really stood up and accused Hu Changan, it would be confirmed that Hu Changan deliberately murdered the imperial official.
This is an incredible thing!
The lightest punishment could be banishment, while the worst punishment could be beheading.
So now, no one wants to be the first person.
Fortunately, at this time, Hu Changan hurried to the backyard holding a basket of stones.
This ore stone was saltpeter that Hu Changan went to the alchemy workshop to buy.
Saltpeter's scientific name is potassium nitrate, and it can decompose into oxygen as long as it is slightly heated.
This is definitely the only antidote for patients suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning.
The reason why people are poisoned after inhaling carbon monoxide is actually because the binding ability of carbon monoxide to hemoglobin is much higher than that of oxygen.
In the case of carbon monoxide, oxygen will naturally combine with carbon monoxide first.
As a result, there is not enough hemoglobin to combine with oxygen in the human body.
Therefore, people will have symptoms of hypoxia.
The only treatment at this time is to inhale large amounts of oxygen.
Only by inhaling high concentrations of oxygen can carbon monoxide in the human body be separated from hemoglobin and slowly excreted from the body.
And the patient must take oxygen as soon as possible.
If timely treatment is not provided, the patient is likely to have long-term sequelae.
Therefore, Hu Changan must provide first aid treatment to these officials who have inhaled carbon monoxide as soon as possible!
Without any time to explain, Hu Changan quickly ordered people to fetch firewood and began to heat the saltpeter.
Soon, the saltpeter was placed in the porcelain plate and carefully heated on the fire.
At this time, Hu Changan ordered others to fetch several bags made of animal skins and began to collect the gas produced by heating the saltpeter.
When everyone saw this, they were completely confused.
The doctor was obviously taking good care of the doctor, so why did Hu Changan jump out first?
What on earth is this strange-looking stone?
Just when everyone was stunned, the doctor saw what the stone was: "Mr. Hu, could this stone be saltpeter?"
When Hu Changan heard this, he nodded lightly.
But when the doctor heard the news, he immediately lost his composure and said, "Mr. Hu, this saltpeter is used in Taoist alchemy. Why did you bring it here?"
In ancient times, saltpeter was often used as an auxiliary material in alchemy.
Hu Changan also bought these saltpeters temporarily from the alchemy house.
When everyone heard this, they all became agitated.
They are all educated men of letters, so they naturally know what an alchemy room is.
To put it nicely, it is a place that satisfies people’s faith.
To put it harshly, it is a black workshop that deceives people without paying for their lives!
From ancient times to the present, countless emperors have listened to the advice of alchemists, desperately consumed poisonous elixirs, and died early.
In the eyes of everyone, those pills are harmful to people.
Now Hu Changan actually gives them the things they need to make alchemy. Does he think they live too long?
Originally, some of these ministers had doubts about Hu Changan.
Now, they are even more unable to sit still.
An impatient minister even stood up from his chair and asked, "Shilang Hu, what do you mean by this?"
"These ministers have just been poisoned and are weak. How can you still give them poison pills?!"
"Do you think they are getting better too quickly?"
As soon as this man finished speaking, some more moderate ministers also stood up.
"Shilang Hu, what you are doing is indeed inappropriate! Although I am not a serious doctor, I am also very knowledgeable in medical skills. I have never heard that saltpeter can also cure diseases!"
"Shilang Hu, now that the doctors are here, please don't do anything to help. After all, the doctors are professionals and know a lot, so you can let the doctors take full responsibility for this matter."
"Shilang Hu, it's not that we don't believe you, it's that what you did is really outrageous. I advise you to let go and wait for arrangements."
However, in the face of everyone's dissuasion, Hu Changan remained unmoved: "Everyone, I know your worries, but I will not give in on this matter!"
"Only by using my method can they be cured!"
On other matters, Hu Changan can make concessions.
But on this matter, Hu Changan could not give in.
This man has already fainted. There is no room for hesitation in such urgent matters.
It doesn't matter if you are tough now, if Hu Changan really dies here, then he will be completely finished!
Everyone wanted to protest, but Hu Changan glanced aside.
Suddenly, a group of powerful young men stopped in front of everyone.
The young boy at the head looked at the crowd and said with a smile on his face: "My lords, would you like to let our young master give it a try?"
These boys are polite with their mouths, but they are not polite at all with their hands.
The numerous servants directly blocked all the exits for the officials.
Even the doctor was gently pulled up by a servant.
Although the household ministers here are all in high positions, they are really no match for these tall and strong boys based on their strength alone.
When everyone saw this, they were all shocked.
They never expected that Hu Changan would openly take custody of them in front of everyone!
Even Xu Duo, the Minister of Household Affairs, had his eyelids twitching.
He really didn't expect that Hu Changan would be so bold!
But soon, the corners of Xu Duo's lips curled up.
It's good to be bold. If he is bold, he can read Hu Changan's book!
Although under this situation, everyone still wanted to say something more, but looking at the boys surrounding them, they could only sigh helplessly and continue to sit and drink tea.
However, even though they were surrounded by servants, they were not afraid.
After all, they are all imperial officials!
Hu Chang'an dared to send people to stop them, but he never dared to cause any trouble to their personal safety.
There are so many people sitting here. No matter how powerful Hu Changan is, he can't hide it from so many eyes!
Everyone stared at Hu Changan's every move with burning eyes.
They wanted to see what kind of medicine Hu Changan was selling in his gourd.
If their lying colleagues are not cured, they will definitely not mind suing Hu Changan severely in the morning tomorrow!
