Chapter 209: Get Ready

These madder roots, also called Sumu, are also traditional Chinese medicine that can be used as medicine, according to Bailu's habit of picking medicine on weekdays, it must have been collected a long time ago, and now it happens to come in handy.

So, after the things were complete, I used the words written by Yunwen on the wooden board with charcoal, used the stone as a hammer, and smashed the oblique chisel to dig out the sawdust, forming a hollow shape, but not through, the depth was as uniform as possible, and the hammer and planing continued to work.

On the other hand, Bai Lu and Yun Wen have already crushed the madder roots into the earthen pot, poured water into them, and boiled them on the fire, and when they opened it again, the whole pot of water has become dark red.

After boiling madder roots, there is a red dye, and the two boards at my end have not long been carved, all the words are carved in a regular way, after carving, Yun Wen went upstairs to get a brush, and this brush, I looked at it and was happy, only to see that the pen is with the ordinary wooden pole, and the material used in the brush is the horse's mane.

However, this brush has not been cooked, selected, fluffed, etc., it seems to be rougher, but there is Qi Maofeng to cut the hair root, so it looks neat, it should be tied with a linen rope, and then stuffed into the pen barrel, which is certainly not as good as the professional craftsman's technique, but it is estimated that it can be used to be able to, at least tidy up the pen head hair, stained with some black charcoal to write Braille is absolutely no problem.

At this moment, Yun Wen is holding this self-made brush stained with dyeing liquid, brushing the words that have been carved out, because this is an ancient method of dyeing, the color must be too light to see clearly, so Yun Wen will brush repeatedly, until the color can be burned, we can only do something else.

Taking advantage of this time, Bai Lu and I also cleaned the surroundings, boiled some warm water, wiped everywhere with a cloth, and swept everywhere with the wheat straw broom we made before, just as a welcome to welcome the new year, to remove the old and welcome the new.

I was busy until the afternoon, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, I heard Yunwen shouting, Bai Lu and I went over to take a look, but saw that it had been dyed red, the years were safe, full of blessings, the eight big characters were red festive hues, so I also went to the door, made some wooden nails, and nailed them to the door frame of the courtyard gate.

I saw that under the four big characters of "Watching the Dragon Military Aircraft", there were eight more big characters, but compared with the rigorously engraved block letters above, the eight characters below were delicate and round, which made it more joyful here.

We are under these eight words, feeling the fresh blood we bring to this courtyard, there is a lot of pride in our hearts, the sunset in the distance is glowing red, and the three of us on the faces explain the golden red, which is the so-called red face.

After a busy afternoon, everyone was hungry, tonight Bai Lu and Yun Wen took advantage of the joy, and also prepared to prepare a fish dish for everyone.

I saw that the two of them were busy with a meal, and they were dealing with the fish offal, and discussing the practice, and then decided to make fish balls to eat, the method was similar to vegetable meatballs, smashing fish and wild vegetables, blending together, and the pork bones in the pot were still there, so they continued to stew, put in the fish balls, put in the seasoning, and the two divided labor, one is responsible for kneading and the other is responsible for chopping the fish meat.

In addition to fish balls, there are three other things, wild vegetables, wild mushrooms, conch, shells and other things.

This is a pure pot of freshness.

After getting it, I went to call the spring to come down to eat, the four of them sat around the table, began to eat and eat food, the spring mood was good, it was rare that it did not destroy everyone's interest, everyone talked about tomorrow's New Year's plan, all talked about the elation, infinite yearning, only I listened and laughed, but the uneasiness in my heart was more restless.

"I hope it's not tomorrow, it's a little later, let's have a happy holiday." I muttered unconsciously and unconsciously.

And the girls, who didn't know if they heard it clearly, turned their heads to look at me, and the noise just now came to an end.

"Zhou Bo, are you busy with something about us? When I worked this afternoon, I found that there seemed to be something wrong with you, obviously it was a festive thing, but you always seemed to frown, and from time to time I was stunned, did you think that we were too wasteful of food during the holidays, which affected our survival? Yun Wen asked.

As Yun Wen asked, the girl's eyes also looked at me directly, eager to get my answer, after all, the things that can make me worry about my heart will definitely not be simple, they know this.

"No, I just thought of the same thing as the Spring Festival girl, and sighed at the death of the ugly brother, these foods were all called by it, and it had a portion, but it didn't eat it anymore, so I was stunned." I said.

"Brother Zhou Bo is right, we shouldn't only take care of our own food and drink, but also have grace in our hearts, I propose to set up a sign for the ugly monster for the time being, when we eat tomorrow, we will also leave a copy for it, remember that Brother Zhou Bo's metal cup still has some aging, it is better to pour a little more, with wine and food as a sacrifice, good, grateful and send the ugly monster a ride." Bai Lu said.

"I agree, although it has done bad things to Zhou Bo, but it is more of a loyal friend to help us, Zhou Bo is right, we should be thinking about it if it is a friend, and we should not ignore it." Yun Wen said.

At this time, Yingchun stood up and said with tears in his eyes: "I also agree, a million agree!" ”

I only hope that these words can be heard by some shark people hiding in the corner, but I hope they can understand, understand our hearts, and don't misunderstand us and regard us as enemies, but this wish sounds like nothing.

A full meal.

Yingchun lit the oil bowl and continued to go up to get her puppet project, I didn't stop her, and after the rest of the girls washed up with me, they were ready to arrange a shift so that they could rest.

"Tonight's arrangement, or my first shift, Bai Lu's second shift, Yunwen's third shift, the Spring Festival girl has a day off, when it is your turn to be on duty, you must leave an unexpected situation, once there is any wind and grass, feel abnormal, tell me as soon as possible, whether it is true or not, you can wake me up at any time, okay?" I said.

Yun Wen and Bai Lu nodded, but each still had a puzzled look.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Brother Zhou Bo, are you so careful today, are you also worried that they will come?" Bai Lu asked.

"I've always been very careful, don't think too much, hurry up and go to sleep." I said.

After Bai Lu nodded, she took the lead in passing, but Yun Wen lingered in front of me for a moment and said, "You actually care about that matter, right?" He 'If the remains of the ghost ship appear, the curse of the sea will reappear in the world, the stormy waves will slaughter the world, and the bloody storm will be set off', this is the mysterious witch prophecy of the Middle Ages, the heavenly fragment is compiled by mysterious masters in the Ming and Qing dynasties, including this passage, which has also been translated into various Chinese languages and preserved in some ancient books, Sister Bai Lu and I have seen this sentence. ”

I nodded, but I didn't really care, after all, the appearance of this dagger was not subjective, but the appearance of a chance coincidence, which did not represent the certainty of those prophecies, what I was really worried about was others, such as the brush marks in the cave wall, which one would be left behind.

"Yunwen, it's the New Year soon, let's not think about this, okay? After the New Year, let's discuss these things again, after all, ghosts, witches, ghost ships, etc., are not very lucky, what do you say? I asked.

She looked at me, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Well, okay, listen to you." ”

Then I went to sleep, and when I was sleepy in the middle of the night, I woke up the shifter, and I went to sleep.
