Chapter 272: Tribulus terrestris
This sound silenced the sky, and when he woke up, there was no one to guard him, and the people in the stockade did not regard him as an enemy. The sky is housed in a small bamboo building, the door of which is open, and you can enter and exit at any time.
There are such bamboo buildings in the village, almost no sound insulation, after waking up, you can still hear the sound that makes people's scalp tingle, but the village is quiet, and everyone seems to be asleep.
He quietly came out of the bamboo building and looked in the direction where the sound came from, and there was no black light over there, and he couldn't see anything. Originally, he planned to negotiate with the people in the stockade to get out of this boundless primeval deep forest, relying on the help of the people in the stockade, but after this terrifying sound came, he was at a loss, and he didn't know whether to stay or escape at night.
In the end, he was not reckless, he knew that if he left alone, he would inevitably be lost in the vast mountains and forests until he was trapped and died. However, it was not appropriate to stay, and the strange sound always made him uneasy.
He was going to take a sneak peek, but in the dark night, the strange sound was intermittent, and it was easy to tell the source. Following the sound, he gradually groped his way to the east of the stockade.
There was a dense bamboo fence there, and after searching, Roaring Sky found a small door. The strange sound came from behind the fence, and when the small door was gently opened, he saw a row of houses made of bamboo and wood.
It was a very strange row of houses, made of very strong logs, only one meter high, and it didn't look like a house to live in.
The strange sound was intermittent, coming from these strange houses, and Roaring Tian hesitated, but he didn't understand the situation, and he felt uneasy.
Roaring Sky slowly walked towards this strange row of houses, and through the gap between the logs, he could vaguely see that there were people in the houses. They were all sturdy men who were bound up, lying flat in them.
He didn't know where these people came from, but he could see that these people were almost inhuman, and they were all struggling, trying to break free from the ropes on their bodies and escape from the house. The roars I heard before were made by these people.
It is difficult to describe this scene in words, and Lu Tian can realize that a person who is locked up in such a house for many years will be depressed to the point of madness.
He immediately panicked, and suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a wolf's den, and there was only one thought left in his heart, to escape. Even if you can't find a way out, dying in the deep mountains and old forests is happier than dying like this.
It is estimated that the proximity of the roaring sky has alerted the people in this beast cage-like house, and they are all grinding their teeth and roaring. These unusual noises finally alarmed the people in the stockade, and someone came to check on them. Whistling tried to escape, but just as he turned to run wildly, he smelled a scent.
It is a very light smell of medicine, for ordinary normal people, the smell of medicine is the smell of medicine, however, for the extremely sensitive sense of smell, this faint smell of medicine is a compound smell, there are layers. Among these medicinal smells, Whistling smelled a special, somewhat familiar smell.
Because of such a hesitation, the people in the village saw Roaring Heaven, the two sides did not understand the language, Roaring Heaven did not know what the other party was going to do, and the other party did not know what Roaring Heaven was going to do. Whistling turned around and ran, the other party was stunned and chased after him. The terrain around the stockade was unfamiliar to Roar, and it didn't take long for him to catch up.
The people of the stockade caught up with Roaring Heaven and did not show hostility, they knew that Roaring Heaven had seen the strange row of houses and the people in the houses, so they judged that Roaring Heaven was frightened.
The two sides exchanged again, and after gesticulating, the people from the village signaled to Yu Tian that he should not be afraid. Roaring Sky responded, meditating, remembering the smell that felt a little familiar to him.
Finally, Wai Tian remembered that the smell came from a medicinal herb. There are many kinds of Chinese medicinal materials, and the processing methods are different, but the method of processing this flavor medicinal material is quite unique, and there is no other medicinal material in the world that is concocted in this way.
It was a long time ago when he was running errands in the mountains of Guizhou, and he met a local doctor. The conditions there are very poor, the transportation is extremely inconvenient, and the mountains are almost isolated from the outside world. In that kind of place, doctors and wizards are the same concept, and doctors are basically both witches.
The doctor had a prescription that calmed the nerves, calmed down, and relieved pain. For people in places where there is a shortage of medical treatment, this prescription is almost omnipotent, and if there is any disease, they will take the medicine concocted on this prescription.
Fangzi's medicine is actually only one flavor, called tribulus terrestris, which is the seed of an herbaceous plant. Tribulus terrestris itself has the effect of calming the nerves and relieving pain, but the dosage is extremely strict, and the proper use can calm and relieve pain.
This dosage is difficult to control, and the medicinal properties of yellow wood tribulus terrestris are particularly strong, and the witch doctor's method of concocting yellow wood tribulus terrestris makes Lu Tian feel novel and a little disgusting.
Witch doctors usually choose a few month-old lambs or pigs, starve them for a few days, and when their stomachs are empty, they are fed cassava mixed with yellow tribulus terrestris powder. After feeding, they are no longer allowed to eat. The cassava mixed with tribulus terrestris powder is digested and finally pulled out, and the witch doctor collects the dung.
This method is very disgusting, but it is indeed useful, the medicinal power of the strong yellow tribulus terrestris is digested and decomposed once, the medicinal properties are weakened, and then take an appropriate amount of feces as medicine, and the person eats it just right.
The smell is also a memory, and although many years have passed, Roar still remembers the smell of tribulus terrestris.
The people in the village persuaded Roaring Heaven to come back, and after such a fuss, many people woke up, and the head of the village was also alarmed, and came over to communicate with Roaring Heaven with gestures.
It was difficult to communicate with each other, and the two of them gestured for a long time. However, when he smelled the medicine with the smell of tribulus terrestris, he knew that the people in this village might also use tribulus terrestris. But their method of medicine is different from that of the witch doctors in the mountains of Guizhou, which is to crush the seeds of Tribulus terrestris and then give it directly to people.
Occasionally, the people in the village have a cold or flu, or they have some external injuries when they go out fishing, hunting and gathering, so they will take a little medicine with yellow wood tribulus terrestris. Sometimes the dosage is just right and there will be no sequelae, but sometimes when it is overdosed, the patient who takes the medicine will hallucinate because of the medicinal properties of Tribulus terrestris, and his behavior will be perverse and aggressive. In such a situation, the patient can only be controlled and continue to forcibly administer the medicinal decoction with tribulus terrestris, which is tantamount to injury on injury, once caught in this cycle, the patient will never return to normal.
These people are aggressive, and if left unchecked, they can injure the livestock and people kept in the stockade, which can only detain them, and the houses that look like they are only one meter high are used to detain the sick.
The people in the village turned a deaf ear, because they were used to it and would not make a fuss.
He specially taught the people in the village the alchemy techniques of the witch doctor in Guizhou, and persuaded them to temporarily stop the medicine for the patients in the house. Those patients themselves are not seriously ill, but because of the continuous administration of tribulus terrestris, it will lead to a dead cycle. As soon as the medicine stopped, after a few days, there was a great improvement.
In this way, the people in the village have a good eye for Yu Tianqing and get along very well. He lived here for more than half a month, and later, four people from the village were sent out of the village.
Roaring Tian escaped from the deep mountains, and immediately thought of the big guy of Huayang Guxing in his heart. It can be said that this is a big feud, and the big guy may have planned it when he formed the game, and he didn't plan to let the few of them live at all. Trapped and dead in the mountains, no one will find out for a hundred years, and if you die, you will die in vain.
He belongs to the kind of old-fashioned ancient pedestrians, who pay attention to revenge for grievances, and he must repay this big revenge. With this thought in mind, Roaring Heaven came to Huayang. He didn't act rashly, because he was only one person, and the opponent was deeply rooted on Huayang's side, and he definitely couldn't fight hard. He took a temporary slumber in Huayang, looking for an opportunity.
This stay is more than half a year, and Roaring Sky is holding back his strength, doing nothing, and focusing on revenge. As a result, people are not as good as heaven, and the big man of Huayang Guxing died suddenly, when he was watering flowers on the roof on the second floor of his yard, he fell down and fell to his death.
When I heard this, I probably knew who Roaring was going to take revenge on. When there was one of the old eight shares, it was said that he fell to death at home, I was not big at that time, and I heard rumors afterwards that it was not watering flowers and falling to death, I don't know, but according to the time and the specific situation, I know that this thing will definitely not be wrong, most likely it is that person.
The enemy died suddenly, and the will of heaven was prosperous, and it felt that most of the time had been in vain. It was at this time that he inadvertently met Mu Qiang, who was still very young at the time, and accepted Mu Qiang as an apprentice.
After Mu Qiang finished talking about this, I vaguely guessed what he wanted to express.
"You mean, what is such a house used for?"
"That's how it should be." Mu Qiang nodded and said, "Mr. Lian, you have probably noticed that the roof of this house, as well as the walls, are very thick and strong, and the small window is equipped with such thick iron bars. ”
Mu Qiang's words made my heart suddenly light up, the ancient city was built underground without light, and it may not be for nothing. That strange thing we encountered was previously locked up in this sturdy, unusually small house? The strange thing got a chance, escaped from the small house, and then ran out, found half of the dog, and killed half of the dog?
When analyzed in this way, it seems that this is really the case. However, there is a glaring loophole.
It is not known who built this ancient city and when it was built. But at a glance, you can see that this underground ancient city has a history of six or seven hundred years. That strange thing, six or seven hundred years ago, was locked up here?
If that's the case, then it's weird, it's really weird.
