Chapter VII: Suspicion
Tushan tribe.
The fruit-picking team returned.
Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, there are fewer and fewer edible fruits, and today they don't have much to harvest, but fortunately there is no danger.
They lamented that they had laid all their harvest on the rocks in the clearing, and that it was getting hotter and hotter, and that if it went on like this, they would not have enough food to eat.
The chief's expression was also a little gloomy, and he only hoped that the hunting party would have more harvest today.
You must know that in order to ensure the armed security of the tribe, meat is given priority to the warriors in the tribe, and ordinary people eat mostly fruits and seeds, and their harvest is small, which means that they will be hungry.
Someone came to count their harvest, and they could keep 30% of the fruits they picked, and the rest had to be handed over to the tribe for the tribe to distribute again.
At this time, there was a noise in the jungle, and the three of Ye Xi cone and the three of them walked over with the trees on their shoulders.
Seeing that they were carrying a full harvest on their shoulders, Chief Yan suddenly stood up, and his voice was implicitly excited: "This is your harvest today?"
The cone and the warehouse put down the burden on their backs, untied it to reveal the wild boar, and said, "Yes chief, this is the wild boar we hunted today, and this one. As he spoke, he pointed to a large pile of sweet potato skewers, "This is the food that Xi brought us to find, we have eaten it, and it is not poisonous." ”
"And there's a lot of it, and we've dug so much in just one place. ”
The chief looked solemn, picked up a bunch of sweet potatoes, broke off one and took a bite, and then his eyes lit up.
Suddenly, a chaotic sound of footsteps came, accompanied by an anxious voice: "Go and ask Wu, please come and show Qi, he is injured!"
The men of the hunting party returned, they did not bring any prey, and they carried a wounded man, who was seriously wounded in the abdomen and chest, and was carried back bloodily, and had taken in less air and more out of breath.
Yong, the captain of the hunting team, clenched his fists very tightly, and hung his head very self-reproaching: "We originally hit the prey, but on the way back, we encountered a tyrannosaurus, and Che was also bitten by it. ”
Qi was lying on the ground and his consciousness was already a little dazed, his stomach and chest were bleeding, you can imagine how the tyrannosaurus bit him sideways, and was finally rescued by the hunting team.
Ye Xi glanced at the wound.
Several shocking holes were opened in the stomach, and a section of the intestines was exposed. If it were an ordinary person, such an injury would have died a long time ago and could not die again, but the physical fitness of the people here was so good that they could still come back with a breath.
Cang Pan anxiously put down a sentence: "I'll go and invite Wu to come." So he hurried to the cave.
Ye Xi was very curious about the witch here, and knew from Songcao's memory that all the people in the tribe were very in awe of the witch, and the witch could predict the weather, and the person who had to get sick without medicine was the only one.
Is it luck or real ability? Ye Xi wondered.
I haven't seen Wu show up, and the food is also sent to the cave by the clan, Ye Xi looked at the dark cave and thought, I like to stay in a dark place so much, albinism?
After a while, the position came out.
An emaciated old man, dressed in sackcloth, holding a bone staff in his hand, and with deep eyes in his eyes, also walked out slowly.
Before that, he thought that everyone was surrounded by straw, but now that he looks, there is already a textile technology that has made linen?
But this linen cloth must be very precious, because the witches of the Wolffang tribe also wore straw in his memory.
Wu looked very old, his beard was white, Ye Xi estimated that he was at least seventy years old, but his eyes were not as bright as ordinary old people, and not as cloudy as ordinary old people.
"Wu!" Everyone in the tribe bowed their heads and saluted, and Ye Xi also hurriedly lowered his head.
Wu leaned on his bone staff, nodded slightly to the crowd, and then walked straight towards the deed lying in the crowd.
The place where the witch passed was like Moses dividing the sea, and all the tribes consciously retreated and made way for it.
Wu walked over to Qi's side and crouched down.
Qi was already angry, and a lot of blood overflowed from the corners of his lips, but seeing Wu still struggling to get up and salute, "Wu ......"
Wu Shen said in a deep voice: "Don't speak. ”
Wu stretched out his right hand, closed his eyes and put his hand on his wound, and then in Ye Xi's widening eyes, under the cover of Wu's old and withered right hand, the wound gradually healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the exposed internal organs were gradually invisible.
Seeing that the wound was about to heal, Wu's body shook at this time, and he said regretfully: "The divination consumed too much magic power in the first two days, and now it can only be done to this extent." ”
But the wound did not heal and was still bleeding.
Qi's wound was much smaller, and the wound on his internal organs had healed, but he had lost too much blood, and now the wound was still bleeding, and if the blood continued like this, there would be only one way to die.
Yong's expression was gloomy, and the rest of the tribe was also very sad, and one less warrior in the tribe was a great loss.
Qi's face was pale, but he still gasped and comforted Wu: "How ...... Xie Wu, I ...... I'm already fine...... Much better. ”
The muscles in Yong's cheeks trembled, and he said in silence: "Burn it with fire." ”
"No, the contract is already so weak, and if you burn it with fire, you may not be able to stand it. ”
Che gasped and struggled to say in a small voice, "No...... It's okay, come on...... Scald......"
Everyone was silent for a while, the atmosphere was very low, and if the fire was used to stop the bleeding, it was very likely that Qi would not be able to endure it.
Ye Xi thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "By the way, I dug up Sanqi!"
Three-seven?
What is this? Everyone in the tribe looked at him, and even the witch looked at him.
Ye Xi explained: "This is a kind of herb that can stop bleeding. ”
“...... Herbs?" everyone looked at each other, "What are herbs." ”
The primitive society did not have the concept of herbal medicine, and the people here can only rely on the self-healing ability of the body's perversion when they are injured, and if they can't survive, they can only wait for death.
However, there is a line between heaven and earth, there are still some magical flowers and plants in the world, and some of the world-conquering flowers and plants can even save people who only have one breath left, but such flowers and plants are very rare, and there will be terrible creatures around them, which are dangerous and abnormal.
Ye Xi took out Panax notoginseng and held the stem of Panax notoginseng to show them: "This thing is called Panax notoginseng, it is a kind of herbal medicine, don't look at its appearance, it has a very significant effect of stopping bleeding and removing stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, simply put, it treats trauma." ”
There was nothing extraordinary about this earthy plant, and it was clearly not a panacea.
This ubiquitous weed, can heal wounds?
The warehouse standing beside Ye Xi suddenly grabbed Ye Xi's neck, and his face was cold: "Who are you, why do you know so much?"
Why is he so sure?!
Forget about sweet potatoes, if you are lucky, it is possible to find it, but what about Sanqi? According to him, this thing can stop bleeding, an ordinary thing that can be seen everywhere actually has the effect of stopping bleeding like a spirit grass and a spirit fruit, what does it mean?!
Ye Xi's neck was suddenly pinched by a steel-like hand, his face was so red that he couldn't breathe, and the three notoginseng he was holding in his hand fell off, and he broke that hand hard.
Looking at the side again, everyone around him had a cold face, staring at him with indifferent and suspicious eyes.
