Chapter 66: A good freshman safety hazard
Jiang Yan staggered and dragged a bag of poisonous snake branches behind Lao Tu's head.
She began to make mistakes after walking two steps, her hands and feet were sore, and she was trying to ask Bella to help her, but when she turned her head, she saw Bella holding a basket in one hand and dragging a bag of cloud grass in the other.
According to Bella's state, Jiang Yan privately thought that she would have no problem even if she dragged three more bags.
Jiang Yan panted and turned her head, her eyes fell on the old Tu Tou who was walking like a fly in front of her, and the gray-haired old Tu Tou was walking like a bag of things on both sides of her shoulders, not to mention a brave word.
In contrast, Jiang Yan felt that using the word weak chicken to describe herself was climbing high.
"It's time to arrive, Lord Castle, this is where I used it to study. Lao Tu Tou pushed open the small room at the staircase on the first floor and made way for Jiang Yan to see what was inside.
There is a small rest area next to all the floors in the Castle Lord's Mansion.
The cubicles in the main building were converted into servants' lounges with two beds, while the smaller cubicles in this side of the building were used as utility rooms for some things from the hoes.
Now the small room had been cleaned up by the old Tutou, and the cabinets on both sides were filled with bottles and jars, and there was a large cauldron in the middle, and there was a strange smell coming from it, which seemed to be the mixed smell of snow water mixed with earth and a mess of plants stewed together.
Because the room was small, the bags of plants they had brought with them could not be placed inside, but could only be placed by the door.
Jiang Yan was still very face-saving to the old man, so she walked in and took a look.
The walls on both sides are lined with bottles and jars, a chair and table in the corner, grinding tools and rusty knives, and a small window hanging on the right.
There were two people standing in the room, and it immediately became full, and it seemed that it was inconvenient to stretch even the limbs in this small space.
"Wouldn't this room be a little too small. As soon as Jiang Yan finished speaking, Lao Tutou hurriedly shook his head.
"It's not small, it's not small, this location is good, it's in the corner, it's also ventilated, I usually boil these herbs and smell big, and there is a ventilated position just right." As he spoke, Lao Tutou opened a window in the small attic.
Suddenly, a chill came to her face, making Jiang Yan shiver, and after a period of ventilation, the room lost its original strong smell, and it was this cold that made people uncomfortable.
The weak, pitiful and delicate Jiang Yan sneezed in the cold wind, and she looked at Lao Tutou again, where does this radiant look like an old man, looking at this physical condition is even better than Jiang Yan.
Lao Tutou rubbed his hands and closed the window again, saying, "I have a fire in it, it is very stuffy, sometimes the cold wind blows, this brain will be much clearer." ”
While speaking, Lao Tutou began to demonstrate the process of pharmaceutical to Jiang Yan.
He took a bag of viper branches from Bella's hand, took out a few and washed them in a nearby basin, then placed them on the board and cut them into five pieces of the same size.
Ground into powder respectively, and then put it in a glass bottle to weigh it, if the weight of the five parts is inconsistent, the old head should be recorded separately in detail, and then placed in different positions, classified and distinguished.
A poisonous snake branch was taken out and added with a certain amount of water and made into a paste, one was thrown into the pot to boil, and the others were mixed with green things, and some were released separately.
As he moved, the hut seemed to move, and the cauldron in the center of the room was constantly emitting steam under the impetus of the firewood, blurring the edges of the bottles and jars and Jiang Yan's vision.
The old man's hands kept moving, and the sound of knives and grinding and the sound of crackling wood blended together in a particularly harmonious way.
Jiang Yan saw a pile of paper on the desktop of the old Tu Tou, on which was a series of ghostly characters, Jiang Yan looked at it twice, and couldn't understand anything.
It took a long time for Jiang Yan to roughly see from the illustration next to the text that Lao Tutou was made with four things, the first branch that was drawn like a snake was a poisonous snake branch, and the remaining three round things were stupid for Jiang Yan.
Fortunately, Lao Tu Tou knew what kind of virtue his handwriting was, and he glanced at the piece of paper in Jiang Yan's hand, pointed to the picture next to the text and said, "This is a potion made by me with dried sunflowers, poisonous snake branches, powdered fruits, and beans." ”
"Beans? You put beans down when you made the potion?"
Jiang Yan couldn't help but imagine this picture in her mind, it was a bit subtle.
Lao Tutou patted his head embarrassedly, "No, I was having lunch at the time, and when I got older, my hands were a little shaky, and I accidentally let three beans fall when I watched the fire, and I was afraid that the potion would change, so I simply added beans when making the potion." ”
Her scientific and rigorous attitude made Jiang Yan gain a lot of knowledge, "The efficacy of different doses is different, and the efficacy of different materials will also change, Lawson, you have a lot of talent as a pharmacist." ”
It's not that Jiang Yan is exaggerating, she really thinks that Lao Tu Tou can be qualified for the position of pharmacist.
A trace of memory flashed across Lao Tutou's face, and he stirred the contents of the pot with a wooden spoon and said: "I don't understand these either, my father taught me when I was a child, and I have forgotten most of them, I remember that he said that no matter what you do, you must be careful and careful, and I remember it for a lifetime." ”
Over the years, Lao Tutou has firmly remembered that sentence of seriousness and carefulness, and he sighed a little, "Thanks to my father, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to work under the city lord." ”
"Earnestness and carefulness are indeed indispensable, but Lawson, you are a little too modest, your sensitivity to these plants and your talent for refining potions are unparalleled, and it is a miracle that you have never learned this technique, and yet you can make a coma potion. ”
It's not just a miracle, it's unbelievable at all, Jiang Yan didn't hesitate to praise herself, and she was stunned by what Lao Tutou said.
Even the environment here is too bad, Jiang Yan came out of the cubicle and stood at the staircase on the first floor and looked around.
This building is a weapons storage place on the first floor, seeds on the second floor, a grain store on the third floor, a treasury on the fourth floor, and nothing on the fourth floor, which is relatively empty.
Suddenly, there was a thud in the cubicle.
Jiang Yan looked inside, it turned out that the herbs in the cauldron suddenly burst open at the critical point, and Lao Tutou was hurriedly cleaning up the mess, "It's fried again, the dose is too much, this has to be written down." ”
Jiang Yan raised her eyebrows, upstairs is food and seeds, and the small cubicle is too small, prone to accidents, and has to be arranged to go somewhere else.
