Chapter 172: Tools

Mulanzhi pulled out the wooden stick that was pinning the door and pushed it open.

Fengyun was much taller than Mulan Zhi, and his gaze went directly over her head and looked into the house.

The first impression he had in the room was that there were a lot of utensils, not only in number, but also in variety.

Bottles, jars, jars, basins...... There are at least dozens of them, large and small, and of course, they are all carved out of stone.

At this time, Fengyun finally understood why the witch had asked him to help the Baicao tribe burn pottery.

There is a real demand, and the number of needs is very large.

In addition to stonework, there are also various utensils made of bamboo and wood.

Their quantity and variety are not inferior to those of stone artefacts, or even slightly superior.

Whether it is stone products or wooden and bamboo utensils, without exception, all the medicinal materials are placed.

Looking at the dazzling, even dazzling array of medicinal herbs, they were close at hand, but Fengyun didn't smell the strong and mixed smell that he smelled outside the building.

"These herbs are all treated, and their smell is astringent, so the smell is not so strong. ”

Mulanzhi seemed to have guessed Fengyun's mind and took the initiative to help him answer his questions.

"I know that when I was in our tribe, I would also handle some medicinal herbs, but I didn't handle them so well. ”

Fengyun looked at the medicinal herbs contained in the utensils, and his eyes couldn't help but show admiration.

He is not a layman, in addition to learning some medical skills from the witches of the Flame Snake tribe, he often helps Bei collect and process some medicinal herbs. For medicine. He's no stranger.

For example, the medicinal herbs placed in the room. About half of him knew their names, and the effects were also known, but only to what Wu told him.

As for whether they have other effects, he does not know.

The other half of the medicinal materials that he didn't know were divided into two situations, one was unique to Lei Ze, and the medicinal materials that the Snake God Mountain did not have. The other part is also in the Snake God Mountain, but Wu didn't tell him, or Wu himself didn't know.

But that doesn't stop him from rating their handling skills is really good.

"Cloud, our task is to process the medicinal materials, prepare them, and make the finished medicine. ”

Mulan Zhi walked towards the house, his gaze slowly swept over the utensils containing the medicinal herbs, and then said, "Your task is to help me deliver the medicinal herbs I need. Then they are processed according to my requirements. Such as slicing, grinding, boiling, and so on. ”

"Got it. ”

"On weekdays, there are special people to do these things, but now that there is a shortage of people in the tribe, they are all going to deal with medicinal herbs, so they can only trouble you. ”

Mulanzhi turned her head and looked at Fengyun, with a hint of apology on her face.

"It's fine. These are small things, and they don't tire me out. Besides, I was able to learn a lot myself. ”

"Good. ”

Mulan Zhi nodded and said, "The first thing we have to prepare is the wound medicine, which is also the medicine that those reinforcements want the most. Well, the most difficult of these is the blood scorpion. They are very hard, and in order to use medicine, you need to grind them very finely. ”

"Even though they get crispy when they are fried, it's still very difficult to get there. On weekdays, it is even necessary to take out someone to grind the blood scorpion, which is very troublesome. ”

"There are so many reinforcements, each of them needs to prepare at least one pair of wound medicine, and the number of blood scorpions required will be very large, I really don't know if it can be completed on time. ”

Mulanzhi had a worried expression.

"Miss Laneige, you don't have to worry. I'll leave that to me. When I was in the tribe, I often helped witches deal with medicinal herbs, and I also had experience in dealing with similar medicinal herbs, so I have some experience. ”

Fengyun looked confident.

He is indeed very confident, and he is not pretending to show Mulanzhi.

He had already seen that in order to complete the processing of the blood scorpion quickly and well, two conditions must be met, one is strength, and the other is skill.

Although he hadn't ground the blood scorpion himself, he believed that as long as he knew the art of grinding, he would be able to master it quickly and do it very well.

In his experience, techniques, especially those that require the use of power, are overwhelmingly related to the control of power.

When it comes to controlling power, he's very confident.

"Really? Great. If the progress of grinding the blood scorpion can keep up, then the preparation of the wound medicine will be much faster. Configure it earlier, send them away sooner, I don't want to see those greedy guys dangling in front of me. ”

"Cloud, come here. I'll tell you how to grind a blood scorpion right now. ”

Mulanzhi beckoned to Fengyun and motioned for him to follow.

She went to the corner, picked up a stone bowl-shaped utensil, not much smaller than a washbasin, and placed it on a table, which was a very thick stake.

There is also a stone rod about a foot long in the bowl, one section is thicker, and one end is slightly thinner.

It's already very smooth and even a little shiny, and it's clear that it's been used for a long time.

Mulanozhi put the stone bowl away, picked up a bamboo bent clamp next to it, clamped some blood scorpions, put them into the stone bowl, and then picked up the stone stick and pounded it.

Knock Knock......

While pounding the blood scorpion, Mulanozhi explained: "There is actually no special skill in processing the blood scorpion, and the most important thing is strength. The only thing to be aware of is to keep flipping them, otherwise they will be uneven. Well, and when grinding, you have to control the action to prevent the blood scorpion fragments from popping out. ”

She moved very quickly, and during her speech, she had already pounded many times with a stone stick.

At this time, Fengyun also saw that she really didn't lie to him, and it was indeed not an easy thing to process blood scorpions.

Although Mulanzhi's strength is far inferior to him, it is definitely not comparable to ordinary people, but even so, after so many pounds by her, the blood scorpion in the stone bowl did not appear too obviously broken.

Especially in their shells, there are even a few small cracks that are extremely inconspicuous, and it is indeed not easy to mash them to a very delicate degree.

"Let me give it a try. ”

Fengyun approached the stone bowl and wanted to try the difficulty of smashing the blood scorpion for himself.

He first imitated Mulanozhi's appearance and pounded it a few times, but there was a situation that he didn't want to see, and the blood scorpion actually jumped out of the stone bowl.

It turns out that the reason why the blood scorpion is difficult to process is entirely because it is elastic, which Fengyun did not expect.

Fortunately, he was quick to catch them all.

"The shells of these blood scorpions are somewhat elastic and need to be controlled when pounding, which is a very important reason why they are not easy to process. Cloud, sorry, I forgot to tell you in advance. ”

"It's fine. ”

Fengyun placed the stone bowl on the table and re-pounded it, and this time there was no more blood scorpion popping out.

"How is that possible? How is this possible? Cloud, how did you do that?"

Mulan Zhi seemed to be worried that Fengyun would have an accident in the process of processing the blood scorpion, so she stood next to him and watched, but before Fengyun could pound it much, she couldn't help but scream.

If it weren't for the fact that she was extremely familiar with the blood scorpion, and the blood scorpion in the stone bowl was still put in by herself, she would probably suspect that what Fengyun was pounding was not a blood scorpion, but something that was very similar to it, but much less difficult to process.

The blood scorpion that was hit by Fengyun's hand immediately appeared a lot of cracks, and its legs and feet fell off, and after being smashed a few times, they turned into pieces.

Although she had seen Fengyun's abilities and was confident in him, the efficiency of this crushing was much more than she expected.

When did the processing of the blood scorpion that gave the entire Baicao tribe a headache become so easy.

"I have a lot of control over power. Miss Laneige, do you want to keep going like this until they become delicate enough?"

"Not really. Once they've broken to a certain point, they'll need another tool. ”

Mulan Zhi brought another stone utensil from the corner, which looked somewhat similar to the stone bowl that Fengyun was using now, but its bottom was smaller and more rounded.

Inside it was something similar to a stone rod, except that it had a large round lump at the bottom, only slightly larger than the bottom of the stone utensils.

"It's specialized in grinding blood scorpions. When the blood scorpion is mashed to pieces, pour them in, then use it to hold them down and crush it until they are fine enough. ”

As he spoke, Mulanozhi gave Fengyun another demonstration, holding the upper end of the stone stick with both hands, and letting the big head at the bottom of the apparatus rotate.

Fengyun looked at Mulanzhi's movements, but frowned slightly, and asked, "Miss Lanzhi, do you have any stones with better materials here?"

"What do you want a stone for?"

Mulanzhi put down the stone stick, raised his head, and looked at Fengyun with a puzzled expression.

"You'll find out later. ”

"Okay. I'll have someone get it for you. ”

Mulanzhi didn't say anything, picked up a wooden stick, and knocked it a few times on the bamboo pillar in the middle of the house.

A moment later, a strong man appeared at the door, waiting for her orders.

After she asked Fengyun about his requirements for the material and size of the stone, she asked the strong man to get a piece as requested.

The strong man didn't ask much and left immediately.

About ten minutes later, the strong man came back and walked over with a large rock the thickness of a human waist and half a human height in his hand.

The texture of the stone is so fine that not a single crack can be seen.

Fengyun nodded in satisfaction and asked the strong man to put the boulder outside the door, and then he took out the king beast tooth knife and carved it and chiseled it.

The strong man did not put down the stone and left, he stayed, his eyes fixed on Fengyun's hands, wanting to see what he was doing.

Mulanzhi's attention was also attracted by Fengyun, standing beside her and watching.

Over time, a very strange stone tool gradually took shape under Fengyun's hands. (To be continued.) )
