Chapter 169: Miraculous Skills

"Say it. Whatever you have in mind, be sure to say it. ”

The witch's tone was solemn, and it was clear that she valued his thoughts.

"That's what I thought. Spying on the Niu brothers is the key to success or failure, so you must be cautious and choose the right people. ”

"You're right. There really needs to be a careful selection of personnel. ”

The witch nodded, an expression of approval.

"In the selection of personnel, I think there must be two conditions, a person must be smart enough, only smart enough to be able to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations, and the second is that it is best to be familiar with those reinforcements, so that it is not easy to arouse suspicion. ”

"You have put forward these two conditions very well. I remembered. Well, do you have anything else to add?"

"I have a concern. ”

"Worried? What are you worried about?"

"I'm worried about the wisdom of the Raven King. ”

"How?"

"If there is really more than one Niu brother in the reinforcements, he has been bought. Will he let them look out for each other in order to prevent their identities from being revealed, so as to determine whether they are under suspicion?"

"Are you worried about the safety of the people sent to spy on the Niu brothers?"

"Yes. But I'm more worried about whether the Crow King will take the same approach as we do?"

"Are you afraid that he will pass on false information to me through the people who spy on the Niu brothers and lure us into being fooled?"

"Wu, do you think it's possible for the Raven King to think of this?"

"Yes, absolutely. Although I don't agree with the Black Crow King's various methods, I also have to admit that he is indeed very smart, otherwise he would not have almost destroyed the Flame Snake Tribe back then. Instead, it was wiped out by the Flame Snake Tribe first. ”

"Oh? What happened?"

From the words of the witch. Feng Yun was keenly aware that there must have been a complicated entanglement between the Flame Snake Tribe and the Black Crow Tribe back then, which couldn't help but make him curious.

"I know you're interested in the past of the Flame Snake Tribe, but I'm ...... now"

"Wu, I see. You go get busy first. ”

Fengyun immediately realized that it was indeed a little inappropriate to ask about the past of the Flame Snake Tribe and the Black Crow Tribe at this time, and showed a hint of embarrassment.

"When I have time, when I have time, I will definitely tell you in detail about the past. ”

The witch nodded to Fengyun and hurried out.

Fengyun was the only one left in the room. I couldn't help but get bored and began to look at the situation in the room.

Just now I was discussing the issue of spies with the witch, and I didn't pay attention to check the furnishings in the room.

The layout of the room is not complicated, and the most eye-catching thing is that there are several large and small shelves on the side against the wall.

Without exception, there are some scroll-like things on these shelves, which should be animal skins in terms of material.

Fengyun walked over to the shelf and found that the hides were firmly tied with ropes, which made him feel a little regretful.

He wanted to know what was written on the leather scrolls, but as a guest. It's not good to touch the master's things directly.

With some reluctance, he looked away from the skin scrolls.

Luckily, the shelves weren't just the first scrolls, but also some wood chips. Bamboo flakes, and even stone flakes.

Many of them lay flat, and he could see what was written on them without touching them.

Looking at it, Fengyun's face couldn't help but show a hint of shock.

Although the Baicao tribe and the Yan Snake tribe do not appear in writing, they all record in the form of paintings, but the things recorded on the wood, bamboo and stone tablets can be easily understood.

Originally, in the impression of Fengyun, the picture can be more intuitive, but it also has a very big limitation, that is, it cannot express some details very clearly.

For example, when preparing drugs, it is difficult to accurately express the required heat, especially the precise ratio of various medicinal materials.

The efficacy of medicinal materials is different, and if the ratio between them cannot be accurate, the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced, and in serious cases, it may even turn the good medicine that cures diseases and saves people into poison.

Before seeing what was written on wood, bamboo, and stone, Fengyun didn't believe that these things could also be recorded and understood by those who saw them.

He stubbornly believed that these things should have been passed down by the witches of the Baicao tribe through word of mouth and hand-to-hand teaching.

But he found that he was wrong, he underestimated the wisdom of the witches of the Baicao tribe too much.

They have discovered weights and measures, although they are not yet standards, but they are already very valuable.

For example, the standard of weight is only a small stone, if you want more, you can add it, and if you want less, you can take a fraction of it.

As for the standard of length, it is a palm, and there are several palms behind it, and there is a clear difference in their size.

Fengyun didn't understand the meaning of their existence at first, but after some scrutiny, he did.

The first palm has the worst definition, and it is clear that it was the first to be carved, and its owner must have belonged to the pioneer of the Baicao tribe who first invented the use of the palm as a measure of length.

The palm behind it should be the palm of her successor in the Baicao tribe.

They carved their palms on the back of the forerunners' palms, not simply to imitate, but to show the difference between their palms and the standard ones in a relatively intuitive way.

The purpose, of course, is that when using their palms as a measurement tool, they can be adjusted in a targeted manner to avoid changes in the measurement standards.

Records of weights and measures are carved into stone, and the ancestor of the Baicao tribe who discovered this method of measurement and her descendants apparently wanted it to be perpetuated.

Compared to wood, stone and hides, stones can be preserved for a significantly longer period of time.

The wood, bamboo, and stone tablets will shock Fengyun, not only the weights and measures, but also the authenticity of the paintings.

In his inherent impression, the original drawings are not too exquisite, and it is good to be able to draw them, as for the size, proportion, light and shade, color, etc., there are no requirements.

This often results in distortion, and the extent of the distortion is known only to the painter himself.

In order to understand the history of the Flame Snake Tribe and the situation in the outside world, Fengyun once asked Wu to see what he and the previous generations of Wu recorded.

Wu agreed.

But when he actually saw the musty leather rolls, he realized how pitted they were.

If the reporter is more rigorous, at least the drawings drawn are not too distorted, and some content can be deciphered even with guessing.

But once the reporter is not rigorous, Fengyun will be blinded.

Those weird and distorted patterns, in his eyes, were not much different from the Book of Heaven.

As a last resort, he had no choice but to ask Wu for help him decipher the scrolls.

Before Wu began to crack, Fengyun was still looking forward to it, he and the recorder were both Wu, and there should be some kind of advantage in interpreting the posthumous works of his predecessors.

Just like before he crossed over, he went to the hospital to see a doctor, and the prescriptions issued by the doctor were simply heavenly in his eyes, but as long as he would give it to the pharmacy, soon all kinds of medicines would be handed out.

He really couldn't understand how the pharmacy doctors could quickly identify those heavenly prescriptions, and in the end, he could only explain by the fact that they had some kind of communication ability between them and the doctor who prescribed the prescription that he couldn't understand at all.

Unfortunately, Wu did not possess such magical communication skills, and he scratched his head at the leather scrolls left by his ancestors.

In order to prevent Wu from becoming a bald man, Fengyun finally let him go, but he has a first-hand experience of the extent of the information left by primitive people through painting.

It was precisely because of the bad impression left by the skin scroll left by the ancestors of the Flame Snake Tribe that he did not have much expectation of the information preserved by the Baicao Tribe.

Maybe it will be better than the skin scroll of the Flame Snake Tribe, the witches of the Baicao tribe have been women for generations, and the women will be more detailed, and they will not be as thick and leafy as the witches of the Flame Snake Tribe, but he still doesn't think they will be much stronger than them.

After all, they are all primitive people, and even if there is a gap in their level, it should not be too different.

But the facts once again told him that there are accidents in everything.

The drawings of bamboo, wood and stone are not only extremely realistic, they can be so realistic that they can be depicted in detail even in their original form.

For example, some herbs, on the leaves, not only the traces of being gnawed by insects are clearly visible, but also the presence of dew drops can be seen on them.

This is not the most exaggerated, the most exaggerated is that the scene reflected in the dew is also depicted.

He saw a smiling face in a drop of dew.

Although the smiling face had become a little blurred due to the erosion of time, he could still clearly feel her joy from the bottom of her heart at that time.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, Fengyun would not have believed that these magical pictures were actually from primitive people, which is really incredible.

Fengyun decides that at some point in the future, he will ask the witch and Mulan Zhi how they did it.

Under the extremely backward conditions of primitive society, it is not an exaggeration to say that they can achieve such a degree of painting.

After the shock, Fengyun paid more attention to the contents of the wood, bamboo, and stone records, wanting to peek into the roots of the Baicao tribe's brilliant medical skills.

After looking at it for a while, his face couldn't help but show deep disappointment.

The content he could see now was very simple, and most of them were about some diseases and the appearance of some medicinal herbs.

As for what he wanted to see, such as dispensing medicine and some special methods of curing diseases, he didn't see anything at all.

He couldn't help but shift his attention to the bundled rolls, and an urge arose in his heart to open them up and maybe he could see what he wanted to see.

But he didn't do it.

While he was engaged in a mental struggle, a cry woke him up. (To be continued.) )
