Chapter 897: Stopping Bleeding and Healing
The crowd parted along his fingers, revealing five men and a woman standing behind them. The faces of these people are all mediocre, and it is difficult for people to remember their appearances after a few more glances.
Yu Yu had already noticed these people, but his life was at stake before, and he was in a hurry to deal with his injuries.
Now seeing that this kid was not seriously injured, he sent someone to find some herbs to apply, and he got up and walked up to a few people and said, "Who are you? Where are you from?" As soon as the words came out, he regretted a little, feeling that these people might not be able to understand his words.
One of the dumb-faced fellows took over and said, "We escaped from the north, and it took many sunrises to get here. ”
The fish didn't know how far he was talking about the north, so he had to ask, "Why did you come here?" and his tone was not kind. In such a closed time, it is not necessarily a good thing for outsiders to come.
The man's eyebrows moved, and he said reluctantly, "We, we escaped." I've heard that some people escaped like this a long time ago, so I came to try my luck. Before the sun had risen, I saw a big tiger pounce in the woods. We rushed over, and the big tiger ran away, and the man was bitten as well. ”
Needless to say, the one who spoke was exhausted, he read the memories in the grass's mind, and naturally learned the dialect of the mortals here, and the others waited for the duck to listen to the thunder, and the negotiation had to be opened by him. It was a chore, because a mortal didn't have many words, and even if he wanted to speak beautifully, he would become so simple as soon as he spoke.
After digesting it for a while, he understood two things: first, he was talking about the process of saving people, and second, this group of people had escaped, and a strange association suddenly aroused in his heart, and he blurted out: "Where did you escape?"
As a result, the face of the person on the other side became even more strange, as if he was sad and relieved, stretched out his hand and pointed to the north, and then whispered: "From the master!"
The owner felt the word, and the feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, and his face slowly changed. What is there in the north? The ancestors knew, and all the people of the Xi clan knew, that there were barbarians who were even more terrible than the beasts of the flood.
It is said that they have grown into three heads and six arms, and they like to eat mortal flesh and drink mortal blood!
The life of the Xi clan is not very comfortable and stable, after all, this world is still not friendly to human beings, but no matter how hard they live, it is better than being enslaved like pigs and dogs, and they can be beaten and killed.
In fact, from the perspective of a bystander like Ning Xiaoxian, it makes sense for humans to be vassals to barbarians at this time, after all, the world outside is too sinister, and monsters are even more unfriendly to humans. In such a situation, it is better to be enslaved than to die in the wilderness. However, after taking root and multiplying by the sea, the Xi clan passed on the gratitude and worship of Xuanwu, as well as the fear and hatred of the barbarians, to their children and grandchildren from generation to generation.
After Tu exhausted his ability to understand people's hearts and control the grass, he quickly dug out the deep-rooted rejection and fear of the barbarians from his mind, and organized such a set of rhetoric at the moment. Sure enough, after the fish was frightened, they couldn't help but feel the same hatred for them, and subconsciously relaxed their vigilance.
As the patriarch of the Xi clan, Yu Yu asked a lot of questions, and Tu Duan and the others had already thought of ways to deal with it along the way. Tu Duan is such a calculating character, and the general development of human intelligence in this period is not high, so he can't find any flaws in his answers.
Ning Xiaoxian stood aside and listened to a few words, but he couldn't understand the reason for it. She didn't expect that the patriarch of the Xi clan village was actually a woman, as thin and lean as everyone else, her skin was dark and glowing, but her chest was quite plump, and she didn't know if it was better than others.
She and Changtian went all the way into the village, and when they saw this small fishing village, they felt a sense of intimacy in their hearts. It is built in a sheltered bay that will not be attacked head-on even if a hurricane blows from the sea. The houses here are small, not to mention the layout, and the roofs are not thatched, but made of local materials and flattened with palm leaves. The walls were gray and simple, and it was obvious that the house was actually made of adobe. In the summer and autumn, the people of the Xi clan mix grass and mud together, and then press them into a fixed mold piece by piece to make a one-foot-long "embryo", which is dried in the sun and used to build a house.
The most beautiful thing about this kind of house made of adobe and mounds is that the walls are neatly jointed, and when viewed from a distance, it gives people a solid and warm feeling. Ning Xiaoxian stroked the wall and found that there were milky white fine particles in the wall, reflecting a faint light under the light of the rising sun. She knew what it was, a trick that only people at the seashore knew: mashing oysters and shells into the mud made the façade stronger.
She had sharp eyes, and at the back of the village she saw a small number of fields that had been carved out. It's not grain that grows here, but salt-tolerant crops like cotton, alfalfa and sugar beets. Seeing only the beet, although only a small crop was planted, I knew that the quality of life of the people of the Xi clan was much better than that of the humans on the southern Ganbu continent at this time, because this thing was not a necessity for survival compared to food.
At this time, several women were squatting down to apply medicine to the herb, and she turned her eyes to see that she had really overestimated the medical standards here. When she commanded Rhubarb to attack, it was clear that she had already spared all the vital parts of the human body, and only caused flesh wounds, but the medicine that these women took out and pounded was not very symptomatic.
She didn't want to care about it, but when she saw that the medicine she was using actually included Cnidium monnieri, she finally couldn't bear it anymore, picked out these herbs, and then walked out.
Cnidium monnieri is a good medicine, which can not only kill insects and relieve itching, but also has a miraculous effect that has to be mentioned: in the southern Ganbu Continent outside Yunmengze, people mainly use it to treat kidney deficiency and impotence, and uterine cold and infertility. However, this thing is a small poison and cannot be used much. It is very inappropriate to mix it directly into the blood of the grass.
Although this young man is an insignificant mortal in the third act of heaven and earth, in fact, he has been ancient for tens of thousands of years, but after all, the injuries on his body were caused by her command rhubarb, and now seeing that he was mistreated like this, how can he still hold back the guilt in his heart?
She didn't go far, and came in picking a plant from outside the field. This is the treasure she saw at a glance when she entered the village, ignoring the eyes of others, squatting down and picking out only the pangolin and scattered stasis grass from a pile of herbs, and then plucked the rhizome of the plant in her hand and divided it into two parts, one was mashed with the other two herbs and applied to the wound of the grass, and one was let him chew directly, and then lightly pressed a few times on several of his acupoints.
This plant is Tian Qi. It is recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica": "Ginseng is the first to replenish qi, notoginseng is the first to nourish blood, and the taste is the same, so it is called ginseng notoginseng, which is the most precious in traditional Chinese medicine." The well-known "Yunnan Baiyao" and "Pien Tze Huang" are made with Panax notoginseng as the main raw material. This thing has a miraculous effect on external bleeding, but it is a pity that in such a long time, it was still regarded as a weed in the field, and its true value has not yet been discovered.
Of course, Ning Xiaoxian has other good medicine to replenish blood, not to mention the side, just one dose of Jinchuang medicine is enough to deal with such injuries, but how can such a medicine appear in the hands of mortals not make people suspicious? They will behave in a proper manner, and they can't have a half-point difference, how can they be seen to be flawed in this link? Therefore, they can only find some herbs to stop the bleeding of Xucao.
Several of the other women looked at each other. Ning Xiaoxian's actions were to accuse them of poor medical care. Tu Duan is also a human spirit, and when dealing with the fish, he still looked around, and hurriedly said at this moment: "Our female companion has the most experience in medical rescue, thanks to her treating and saving people along the way, otherwise we wouldn't be able to come here." ”
The physique of the grass is good, and the injury is not serious, and after a while, his face is a little ruddy, and he is full of qi when he speaks. The woman in the room saw it and knew that the medicine was working, and her gaze at Ning Xiaoxian was a little kinder. In this era, human beings do not have the concept of "home" at all, hundreds of people in the clan are brothers and sisters, and they have a close relationship with each other.
Seeing that the wounded's bleeding had stopped and his life was safe, the fish shouted outside, and several adult men walked in and carefully carried the grass out to be placed in another place. At this time, Ning Xiaoxian realized that all the women standing in the patriarch's house were women, but the men were all watching outside, and they came in only after being summoned.
As she was looking, Yu Yu had already smiled a little, and then said to Tu Du, "You guys have good clothes, where did you get them?"
When these words came out, Ning Xiaoxian's heart tightened. Although the immortal cultivator entered Yunmengze and was no longer in a wide robe and belt, and his clothes were fluttering like a person among immortals, his clothes were definitely different from the humans in the third act of heaven and earth. Although cotton was also grown in the small village of the Xi family, how could processes such as spinning, threading, and pulping and dyeing be compared with later generations. Although Ning Xiaoxian and the others are now wearing the most simple coarse cloth clothes, the texture of the fabric, especially the workmanship, just looks at the stitches and stitches, which are better than the clothes on the people of the Xi family, I don't know how many times. They don't think it themselves, but in the eyes of the Xi people, it is a rare thing.
If it is true, they have escaped from the distant tribe of the original tribe, and it will take four or five months to get here, at least, where can the clothes on their bodies be kept so intact?
No matter how clever the lie is, there will be loopholes, no matter how carefully they plan, this seemingly ugly and primitive woman almost leaves them speechless.
Tu Duan didn't ignore the glint in her eyes when she said this, obviously suspicious. R1152
