Golden milk from a golden calf

"This looks like pee." said Saladin, firmly, pushing the cup away.
"Such a fool," said the small man, through his rotten, wreaking teeth.
"It smells like pee."
"This is milk from the Golden Calf of the Hebrews!" said the man, as though offended.
"The Golden Calf produces golden milk?" The old man nodded, smiling maniacally. He pushed the cup toward the boy.
"One tiny sip and your bones will turn to metal, impenetrable and unrelenting against whatever may assualt your body!"
"Since when does a statue suddenly become milkable?!" Saladin demanded.

I'm not sure what comes after that...but it was just a thought that popped into my head...and I had to get it out.
