"You are..."
Wu looked at Shao Xuan, hesitating to say anything, he really didn't know what to say. He hadn't received a living thing in years.
"For you!"
Shao Xuan put the turtle on the open space beside him, thought about it, put it upside down, and put it upside down. dial back.
"Send it here, and by the way, when can I start learning herbal medicine with you?" Shao Xuan said.
Wu looked away from the turtle that was busy turning over. After thinking about it, he said, "You will go up the mountain in ten days." During this time, he still had some things to deal with, and there were still several scrolls to paint. Can't make time.
"Okay, then I'll come back to you in ten days." Seeing that Wu still had a lot of empty animal skins to write and draw, Shao Xuan knew that Wu still had a lot of things to do, so he didn't say more, said goodbye and left. As for the turtle, there were people watching from the witch, and it couldn't hurt anyone.
After Shao Xuan left, Wu Jingjing looked at the turtle who had turned over in the open space next to him.
The originally murderous turtle was not as aggressive as it was in Shao Xuan's house. It only slightly opened its hooked mouth and looked at Wu, but did not come forward to bite.
After staring at the turtle for a while, the witch called the person guarding outside and asked him to change the place of the turtle on the ground.
When Shao Xuan came home, Lao Ke was waiting at the door, looking nervous. The people of the tribe were very concerned about Wu, and Lao Ke also wanted to know whether Wu would be satisfied when he received the donated items.
"How is it? Does Wu Xi like it?" Before Shao Xuan entered the door, Lao Ke hurriedly asked. Because the hand holding the crutch was too hard, the blue meridians were obviously bulging and the crutch was almost snapped.
Shao Xuan recalled Wu's expression at the time and said, "It should be satisfied, Wu asked me to go up the mountain in ten days."
Hearing Shao Xuan's words, Lao Ke heaved a sigh of relief. Since Wu had already spoken to let Shao Xuan go to the mountain, that meant that he was not dissatisfied.
In fact, Shao Xuan felt that Lao Ke's worries were unnecessary. After he had been in contact with Wu many times, even if there were not many conversations, Shao Xuan could sense that Wu was not an old-fashioned antique who didn't know how to work around it, and he would not be ignorant because of the gifts he presented to him. Like it or not and change the attitude towards people.
"Since you will go up the mountain in ten days, before that, you can go to the hunting team to learn about medicine planting, and then you will be satisfied with Wu." Lao Keben wanted to find some former comrades in arms, but, Many of the people he knew who knew Yaozhi were in another hunting team, and they had already gone out. When the hunting team returned, Shao Xuan had already gone up the mountain.
Generally speaking, in a year, the activities of the beasts and beasts in the mountains and forests are in a wave shape, reaching the peak value during the full moon period. By the end of the year, some prey have already been hidden for hibernation, and in order to ensure enough food in winter, the hunting team will go out hunting for a longer time than before and after the full moon.
Therefore, even if it is another 20 days, the hunting team may not return immediately. After Shao Xuan goes up the mountain, it will probably have to wait another three or four days before returning there. If there are other troubles, it may take longer.
"In terms of medicinal herbs, I can't help you." Old Ke could not remember some of the knowledge about medicinal herbs that he had mastered back then. He was afraid that the wrong teaching would make Shao Xuan lose face in front of the witch, that was the witch!
However, Shao Xuan didn't have the tension and anxiety like Lao Ke did. He was going to polish the stone tools, take Caesar and Chacha to the training grounds, and practice the newly learned lasso of traps.
In this season, many trees on the hills of the training ground have produced fruit. Many people went to pick them, and many of the fruit matured for a short time. The day before, it looked like a green fruit the size of peanuts. When you look at it, it has become the size of an apple, and its color will change. If you don't pick it at this time, the fruit will rot in another day.
Therefore, there are also many people who go to the training ground to pick fruit every day, but most of them are from the area near the foot of the mountain. After all, their food reserves are relatively small, and it is always good to save more food.
When the day finally came to go up the mountain again, before Shao Xuan set off, Lao Ke told him time and time again to study hard, not to make Wu angry, to study with Wu, what a great honor it is, and it must not be sloppy!
No matter what he thought in his heart, Shao Xuan nodded seriously, "Don't worry!"
Lao Ke: "… "
I was relieved at first, but now hearing this sentence, my heart hangs high again, how to worry about how to think, looking at the back of Shao Xuan going up the mountain, Lao Ke stood there worried.
Shao Xuan didn't take Caesar up the mountain, but Cha Cha kept following until the top of the mountain.
Coming to the stone house where Wu was looking for someone to talk to, Shao Xuan saw that the two guards were staring at the sky.
The two warriors naturally knew the eagle that was hovering in the sky at the moment. After all, it was brought to the witch when it was very young, and it was blessed by the witch, and no one dared to throw it and kill it.
Shao Xuan made a gesture towards the sky, and then he let out a cry and flew back down the mountain.
It was not the first time that the two warriors saw Shao Xuan do this, but every time they watched it, they couldn't help but be surprised and envious. They had never imagined that a very aggressive bird in the mountains and forests, He could even be so obedient. It is precisely because of this that their attitude towards Shao Xuan is much better than that of ordinary people living at the foot of the mountain. Every time they see Shao Xuan coming, they can still show a smile on their faces.
Except for the first few times, now Shao Xuan doesn't need to show the tattoo card when he comes here, and walks directly into the house, no one will stop him.
Wu was still sorting out the animal skin scroll, Shao Xuan just glanced at it, couldn't understand it, it seemed to be a painting, but the painting was too abstract, compared to the paintings on the animal skin scrolls in other people's hands and the murals in the caves before. It is much more concise, it seems to be just a symbol, each one is only one or two strokes, but each stroke, Wu draws very slowly, it seems that it takes a lot of effort to complete the content of one stroke.
Shao Xuan didn't bother, he just sat aside when he arrived.
After about five minutes, Wu Cai put down the pen, took a long breath, and looked at Shao Xuan with a faint smile: "I have already told Gui Ze, you go directly to the medicine house, she will tell you how Do."
Who is Gui Ze? Shao Xuan doesn't know him. He's probably a character like Wu's apprentice. Looking at Wu's current appearance, he can't walk away. The animal skin scroll is only one-third drawn, and it's not too bad to stop halfway. Well, Shao Xuan understands and knows that Wu can't go away now.
"Okay, then I'll go first." Shao Xuan said.
The medicine house is the place where the shaman used to prepare the herbal medicine. Among the many houses near the top of the mountain, the four houses are the highest. They are the stone house where the witch summons people, the stone house where the leader summons people, and the one that serves as the general meeting place for the high-level tribes. Stone house, and medicine house.
The four houses are in four directions, and if the two opposite stone houses are connected, a staggered "ten" will be formed.
It is reported that these four houses are connected to the fire pit, and it can be like a conservatory in winter. As for how to connect, that is the ability of the witch and fire.
On weekdays, except for those who were seriously ill and the wounded sent by the hunting team, no one was allowed to approach the medicine house. Shao Xuan only knew the specific location of the medicine house, but he had never entered it.
There were also people guarding in front of the medicine house. After Shao Xuan handed out the sign, that person let him in. Obviously, Wu had already greeted him.
You can smell the medicine from a long distance, but when you get closer, the smell is stronger.
Opening the animal skin curtain of the medicine house, Shao Xuan walked in.
What caught my eye was a large square stone table placed there. At this time, a little girl who didn't look big was busy in front of the square table.
The sleeves of the animal skin coat on her body were just over the elbow, and the animal skin pants under her body did not reach the ankles. At this time, she was walking barefoot on the uneven but carefully beaten soil surface, along the stone table, to handle the herbs placed around the stone table.
Behind her, a turtle that Shao Xuan was very familiar with followed slowly. She took a step and the turtle followed.
