Tang Ruyue kept her word. She didn't let Tang Wanwan wait for long before she came.
Tang Wanwan was quite happy to see her come to Tang Wanwan. She finally had a somewhat reliable girl. She asked by the way if there was anything going on at home. In fact, she wanted to find out what was going on. Yesterday, she only heard from Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang.
She screamed horribly in the yard, but she didn't know exactly whether she was stung or how badly she was hurt.
Speaking of what happened yesterday, it was a coincidence. If Tang Ruyue hadn't suddenly appeared in front of her, she might have gone to the door of the old house to see what was going on inside.
Tang Ruyue said that her mother and grandmother were both stung by bees and were seriously injured. Fortunately, her father invited Dr. Xu over overnight and helped them apply medicine, and they were much better.
When Tang Wanwan heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her face. It hurt them like this. It was really cheap for them. And why did Xu Xiaoyou work so hard? It was easy for them to do more.
It will hurt for a few days. The Xu family's medical skills are not bad. Xu Xiaoyou applied medicine to them, and they will definitely be fine soon.
But she said: "That's okay, nothing serious happened."
Tang Ruyue couldn't help but look at the expression on Tang Wanwan's face with curiosity, and asked, "Sister Wan must really hate my mother and the others. I thought you wanted something to happen to them."
Tang Wanwan suddenly looked stern and thought to herself: This girl's eyes are quite poisonous. I don't know if she was doing it unintentionally or if she was testing herself with the story. She couldn't help but smile and replied, "Xiaoyue, what are you talking about?
Yes, how can I wish them bad luck? After all, we are a family, and even the broken tendons are still connected to the bones."
"By the way, your mother didn't ask you where you were last night?" Why did Tang Wanwan feel that Tang Ruyue's return was too smooth? Logically speaking, Wang should not have kept her at home and not allowed her to come to their home.
Are you coming home? She even had a fight with her that day and dislocated her hand. According to Wang's dog-like temper, she should find some reason to knock on the door and regain some face.
"I told you, I said I'm here." Now it was Tang Ruyue's turn to be a little flustered. She turned her face away and looked towards the yard.
"Oh, then she didn't make things difficult for you."
"After all, she is my mother." Tang Ruyue replied, but listening to her voice, it was obvious that there was some duplicity.
Tang Wanwan smiled nonchalantly and dismissed the matter as such. "That's good. I was worried that your mother and Ruyi would make things difficult for you."
Then she took Tang Ruyue's hand, and the two sisters entered the courtyard together.
When she arrived at the yard, Tang Ruyue's eyes never left the simple filter that Tang Wanwan had just made. In fact, it is very simple to make as long as you know the principle. Today is a little rushed. If Tang Wanwan is given time and tools, she can make it.
A filter ten times better than this.
She looked at something that suddenly appeared in the yard with some surprise. If she remembered correctly, she didn't have this thing before she left. It looked so strange. "Ah, what is this? Sister Wan, did you do it?"
?What is it used for?"
Tang Ruyue just glanced at the front and found a new device in a corner of the yard, which was a wooden barrel, a bamboo pipe and the like. It was connected to the salt pool below, so her eyes lit up.
"Yes, I use it to filter the salt. Xiaoyue, in fact, the salt we eat contains harmful substances. If filtered like this, it will be safe, and the taste of the salt will be different."
"Ah, the salt we eat is poisonous?" Tang Ruyue looked extremely surprised.
"Yes, our salt has been roughly processed, and many toxic substances in it have not been filtered out. Adding charcoal and filtering gauze can isolate the toxic substances."
Tang Ruyue immediately made a mental note, and then asked a few more questions. Tang Wanwan didn't want to hide anything from her, so she told her everything.
Tang Ruyue looked very happy and said with a smile, "Sister Wan is so smart that she even thought of doing this. How did you know?"
"I knew it when people did this." Tang Wanwan pulled Tang Ruyue in front of Xiaoyi and Xiaorou, asking them to listen to Sister Xiaoyue's words.
Xiaorou was very well-behaved. She immediately walked over obediently and took Tang Ruyue's hand, looking very well-behaved. After all, Xiaorou is a girl and timid. As long as she agrees with her, she can play at home for the whole day.
Tian. Xiaoyi is a boy and wants to go out to play. If he is asked to stay at home all day, he always wants to sneak out. After hearing Tang Wanwan ask him to be obedient at home, he immediately made a request. "Sister.
, can I go out to collect firewood? I will collect it behind the house, and I won’t go anywhere else.”
"Otherwise, I go to the river to pick up snails. I won't go into deep water."
Tang Wanwan quickly saw through his little trick and immediately refused. "Xiaoyi, be good, wait for your sister to come back at home. You can play skipping with Xiaorou and Xiaoyue, or play shuttlecock. If you are obedient, I will meet you when I come back.
There are rewards.”
"Well, you come back early." Xiaoyi looked reluctant and hung his head.
Seeing his depressed look, Tang Wanwan saw the pebbles on the ground and immediately had an idea. She held the pebbles they usually played with in her hand and stretched out her hand towards him. When she opened her hand, she found three pebbles in her palm.
Shi Zi tilted his head and looked at him and asked, "Do you want to learn magic tricks from your sister?"
"Yes!" Tang Xiaoyi didn't know what magic was, but she knew what the eldest sister said was right.
"Okay, just keep an eye on it. I have three pebbles in my hand now, and I will make them disappear right away."
Suddenly Tang Xiaoyi, Tang Xiaorou, and even Tang Ruyue aroused strong curiosity, and surrounded Tang Wanwan with their eyes wide open.
"See clearly, I'm going to change soon." Tang Wanwan asked them to see clearly the stone in her hand, then closed her hand. She put her other hand on the fist of this hand and pressed it hard.
Press, and when she opened her hand, the three pebbles in her hand were gone.
The three people here immediately opened their mouths wide, looking everywhere for where the stone had gone.
"Ah, how did you do this? Why are the stones gone?"
"Hey, it's strange. I obviously looked at Sister Wan's hand and didn't move it?"
"Another hand."
...
"do it again."
"I must see it clearly this time."
"Well, keep your eyes open."
"You over here, I'm over here watching eldest sister."
.....
At the strong request of her three younger brothers and sisters, Tang Wanwan did it again. After watching it, the three people still couldn't understand how Tang Wanwan operated.
"Hahaha, you should practice well by yourselves. I will tell you the secret when I come back."
"Sister, eldest sister, I want to know now. Where did the stone go?" Tang Xiaorou raised her head and looked at her sister innocently.
"No, let me think about it, the eldest sister is not allowed to say anything now." Tang Xiaoyi was quite self-respecting.
Tang Ruyue also frowned and thought hard.
Tang Wanwan left home amid the reluctance and doubts of the three of them, and went up the mountain to hunt for treasure.
Tang Wanwan didn't need to organize the things she prepared last time at all this time, she could just bring them with her.
She was actually very curious about what kind of material this backpack was made of. It was very well made, but the key was where could such tough bamboo be found. When she hit it with her hand, there was a metallic sound. Unfortunately, Tang Wanwan didn't
I know the name of this bamboo, but no relevant information pops up in my mind.
To her surprise, she took the big bow left by her father, and a nice and domineering name came to her mind, King Lu's Bow. The production process was quite complicated, but after reading it, Tang Wanwan also
She can do it, but her arm strength is too small to make a bow with such a big arm strength. A thirty-stone bow is okay, a fifty-stone bow is just so-so, and an eighty-stone bow is currently not something she can make. Tang Wanwan thought to herself
, is it possible that this bow is also related to the Jin Luban ancestor?
The Jin Lu Ban production encyclopedia also records various ancient bows and arrows. There are no King Lu bows, but there are many crossbows. Especially the repeating crossbow is very widely used. Tang Wanwan remembers that their college and a certain military academy jointly produced ten kinds of repeating crossbows, large
, small ones, as well as waterproof, fully automatic and semi-automatic ones. Two-, three-, and five-link crossbows are more commonly used, with up to seven-link crossbows at a time. The seven-link crossbows are divided into two rows, with three crossbows on top and four on the bottom that can be maneuvered or linked.
.
This is the most proud work that Tang Wanwan and the others developed at the time. This requires a lot of craftsmanship and design skills from the maker. The requirements are very high. The springs installed, the distance between each crossbow and the linkage must be well coordinated.
Otherwise, let alone the fifth company, even the third company may not be able to do it.
With such doubts in her heart, Tang Wanwan went up the mountain.
Tang Wanwan searched hard for the original owner's knowledge of this mountain forest, and she already had a rough idea. Tangjia Village is located near the Qilian Mountains, with its eastern end reaching the Yellow River Valley, connected to the Qinling Mountains and Liupan Mountains. There are glaciers, snow-capped mountains, basins, and areas with an altitude of four or five
Thousand-meter-high mountains. There are also patches of primitive mountain forests here. It is said that there are wild beasts in there, including blind bears, tigers, and even the king of the forest, the lion. It is the most primitive coniferous place where the sky is blocked all year round.
The moist soil and climate environment of the zone are also the favorite environment for precious Chinese herbal medicines. There must be countless rare and exotic animals there.
But opportunities and dangers coexist. Only brave hunters with good skills can form a team and dare to enter the mountains. If you are lucky, you can return with a full load. If you are unlucky, you will risk your life. As for others, forget about it. You can only.
Watching the excitement in the mountains, occasionally getting some firewood and wild fruits, and catching one or two rabbits and pheasants, that's good luck.
Tang Wanwan knew that if she wanted to get good things, she had to go deep into the mountains. It was rare to see even wild fruits in the mountains, let alone any rare and rare herbs. Fortunately, she had made enough preparations before setting off.
Tools, as well as food and water. Whenever she saw usable herbs along the way, she got them all and put them in the backpack. The backpack had many pockets to put a lot of things. These were all for emergencies.
