Chapter 170: I Have a Question for You
"Clouds, clouds, clouds?"
Mulanzhi's voice suddenly reached Fengyun's ears, startling Fengyun, who was immersed in the tangle of whether to open the leather scroll or not.
"Yes. ”
Fengyun answered, and the person also walked away from the shelf, and greeted the door.
When he arrived at the door, he happened to have a face-to-face with Mulanzhi.
"Yun, what's going on? I saw Wu hurriedly go out, I asked her, and she didn't answer me. ”
Mulanzhi looked at Fengyun with a face full of worry.
"It shouldn't be a big deal, Wu just remembered something and needed to deal with it. ”
"Isn't it a big deal, but why does Wu seem so anxious?"
Mulanzhi doesn't seem to believe Fengyun's words.
"I don't know about this, Wu didn't tell me. Well, if you're not at ease, come with me and wait for Wu to come back. When you come back, you just ask her. ”
Fengyun couldn't make up any good reasons for a while, so he had to pull it on the witch.
"That's all there is to it. Just hope that nothing big really happens. ”
Mulanzhi still looked a little worried.
Then the room fell silent.
Mulan Zhi didn't want to speak because she was worried, and Fengyun's mind was still on those leather rolls.
After some time, the witch still did not return.
"Yun, Wu won't have an accident, right?"
"Miss Laneige, you're worrying too much. Witch is in the tribe, what can happen. Don't want the people of the Crow tribe to retreat a long time ago, even if they want to plot against it, is it possible for them to sneak into the tribe without being detected?"
"Of course not. As long as they enter the Purple Bamboo Forest. It will be discovered immediately. ”
Mulanzhi looked proud.
She is still very confident in the trap set in the purple bamboo forest.
"Absolutely not going to get in. The defense of the purple bamboo forest is too strong. ”
Fengyun complimented. Then he changed his mind and asked, "Miss Laneige, I have a question for you." ”
"Question?
"I found the drawings on these wood, bamboo, and stone chips to be very realistic, how did you do that? Compared to them, the drawings left by our ancestors are simply unsightly. Hey, sorry, I didn't mean to see it. After Wu left, I was a little bored. Just ......"
"Nothing, they write about things that are very ordinary and anyone can read them. Besides, Wu has promised to teach you medicine, and you must also watch them and memorize them. ”
"Then I'm relieved. Well, you haven't told you how to make the drawings so realistic. ”
"This ......"
Mulanozhi looked a little hesitant.
"Isn't it inconvenient to say? Forget it, I'm just curious. ”
Fengyun couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment.
He really wanted to know how the people of the Baicao tribe managed to do it to this extent, it was unimaginable.
"It's not inconvenient. It's just a bit of a hassle to make it clear, and I'm wondering how to make it clear to you. ”
Mulanzhi thought for a moment. "In order to make the drawings realistic, you need to do three things. The first is to practice diligently and master the painting skills, and the second is to mix the pigments well, not only to have many types, but also to grind enough delicately. ”
Speaking of this, Mulan Zhi paused slightly.
"Miss Laneige, what's the third point?"
Fengyun couldn't help but ask.
He thought of the first two points, but his instincts told him that the third point was the key.
"The third point is that ordinary people can't do it even if they know it, and even people who are not from our tribe can't do it. ”
"Oh, exactly, what?"
Mulanzhi's words made Fengyun even more curious.
"That's the totemic power that is unique to our tribe. In the process of drawing, without using the power of totems, the effect of the drawn pictures will be much worse. ”
With that, she walked over to the shelf.
Fengyun also followed.
Mulanozhi picked up a leather roll from the outer part of the shelf and untied the rope.
Fengyun's gaze immediately fell on the leather roll.
He wanted to know very much what was recorded on the scroll, but he was confined to the situation and didn't do anything, and now that Mulan Zhi opened it himself, he could just get a glimpse of it.
Mulanozhi spread out the leather rolls on the wooden board that served as a tabletop.
"Cloud, how do you see it differing from the drawings on the bamboo, wood, and stone?"
Mulan Zhi pointed to the leather scroll, tilted her head, and asked Fengyun who was standing beside her.
Fengyun's gaze slowly moved on the leather scroll, looking for the difference in Mulanzhi's mouth.
After a while, he made a discovery, and said slowly: "They are indeed very different. Although the drawings on the scrolls are very similar, they give me the impression of being a bit dull, stiff, and lacking in vitality. ”
"This scroll was painted by a very good painter in our tribe, but it's a pity that she's just an ordinary person. You should now understand the difference between using the power of totems when drawing, right?"
"Understood. The difference is really huge. ”
Many things can only be seen more clearly when there is a comparison.
The drawings on the scrolls were immediately superior to those he had seen on wood, bamboo, and stone.
If you let Fengyun briefly evaluate them, the pictures on the leather scroll are the works of the painter, drawing the scoop according to the gourd, according to the book, although it looks more similar, but the image is already all its advantages.
The drawings of wood, bamboo, and stone are completely different.
They are the works of true masters, not only resembling the form, but also resembling the gods, expressing all the charm of the things to be painted, and they are alive.
But even so, Fengyun still appreciates the painting level of the ordinary people in the Baicao tribe, and the people of the Yan Snake tribe really don't know where to be smart.
Compared to the drawings on the leather scrolls, the drawings that Fengyun saw in the Flame Snake Tribe were completely children's graffiti, and they were of a very inferior level.
"That's right. Why should ordinary people be asked to draw these pictures?"
Fengyun suddenly remembered a question.
"Wu not only needs to study medical skills, but also to go to other tribes from time to time to heal and save people. Very little free time. Besides. The totem power consumed to draw a picture is also relatively large. These drawings were drawn by ordinary people of the tribe. Although it doesn't look so smart, it's still very similar and doesn't delay recognition and use. ”
"That's right. They are so much better than the pictures left by our tribe. ”
Fengyun shook his head and smiled bitterly, the painting level of the two tribes was at the same level at all.
"Maybe it's because the people of your tribe don't put too much effort into painting, and we are different. Many herbs look more alike, but their medicinal effects are completely different, and they need to be accurately distinguished, otherwise something will happen. ”
"That's why. Each generation of witches is required to have superb painting skills, and there are some ordinary people in the tribe who are also required to practice painting skills diligently and assist witches in recording various contents. ”
In the time that followed, Fengyun and Mulanozhi chatted with each other.
Mulanzhi didn't tell Fengyun how to use the power of totems when drawing pictures.
Fengyun also didn't ask very interestingly.
Mulanzhi doesn't say it, it is very likely that it involves the secrets of the Flame Snake Tribe, and it may also be that the witch strictly does not allow it to be disclosed, but no matter which one it is, it is not easy for the strong to be strong.
"Yun, why has Wu been out for so long?"
Fengyun and Mulan Chi have been chatting for almost two hours, and still haven't seen the witch return. Mulanzhi finally couldn't help it.
"Maybe there's something delaying. But don't worry, the witch should still be in the tribe. It's going to be fine. ”
Fengyun can understand that the witch has not returned for so long.
As Fengyun and the Witch said, choosing who to spy on the Niu brothers is the key to success or failure.
When selecting candidates, it is necessary to be selective, take all aspects into account, and be strict, so as to minimize the possibility of failure.
"But I'm not uneasy. ”
Turning his mind to the witch, Mulanzhi said significantly less, and slowly stopped talking.
Fengyun was not good at talking to himself, so he simply shifted his attention to the spread leather scroll on the table.
The contents of the scroll are about the treatment of bone injuries.
On the leather scroll, a shirtless man's arm is bent at a large angle, apparently a broken bone, and the pictures on the back are all about how to deal with the arm wound.
After looking at it, Fengyun had to admit that the medical skills of the witches of the Baicao tribe were indeed quite remarkable.
The process of treating the bone injury turned out to be almost the same as in memory.
Although there is no plaster fixation, there is a concave wooden block that is cut and the size of the arm, and the two pieces are buckled together, and the fixing effect must be no worse than that of plaster.
In the precautions explained at the end of the skin scroll, the injured person should move less, especially to keep the fractured part stable, which is also very scientific.
After reading the leather scroll, Fengyun was thinking about whether to ask Mulanozhi for another leather scroll to pass the time, when a burst of footsteps came.
"It's Wu back. ”
Mulanzhi had already stood up before Fengyun could react.
"It's true that Wu has returned. ”
Fengyun also stood up.
Although she hasn't been with Wu for a long time, she walks more distinctively, and he can distinguish her footsteps.
"Wu, what did you do, why did you not come back until now?"
Seeing the witch, Mulanzhi couldn't wait to ask.
The witch didn't answer immediately, but glanced at Fengyun and nodded slightly, with a hint of affirmation in her eyes, which should be sure that he could keep secrets.
"What's the matter, it's not the medicine those people want. I went to check the quantity, and the reserves were a little insufficient. ”
Speaking of this, the witch turned her head to look at Fengyun and said, "Yun, you will study with Lanzhi tomorrow, and while learning, you will help deal with some medicinal herbs, so that you can learn faster." It's just a little hard for you. ”
"It's not hard. That's what I'm supposed to do. ”
Fengyun still agrees with the arrangement of witches, and learning in practice is indeed much better than oral teaching.
A few years ago, Storm taught him the art of hunting with practice, and he achieved very good results. (To be continued.) )
