Chapter 44 Quetzalcoatls Egg

The difference between humans and animals is whether they can make and use tools.

Therefore, the importance of tools is self-evident and can even affect the development and direction of a civilization.

Just like the invention of the magic wand, it made learning and mastering magic more convenient, and it also promoted the prosperity of magic in Europe, allowing all kinds of genius spells to emerge in an endless stream.

For the indigenous people of North America, due to natural geographical barriers, they were not able to enjoy the dividends of tools like magic wands for a long time.

But correspondingly, they also found another way and learned to use the skins and blood of magical animals to cast spells.

Animal skin and animal blood, similar to the wood and core of a wand, also have powerful magical power.

Based on this spellcasting system, the native Americans created Leatherform, a high-end transformation technique similar to Animagus.

Of course, compared to Animagus, skinwalkers need to kill and die in exchange for the power of transformation.

The shape of the transformed creature must be about the same size as the wizard. This restriction will naturally exclude animals that are too small and too large.

But Animagus can only transform into fixed animals, but Skinwalkers can transform into many kinds of animals.

Therefore, the two types of magic have their advantages and disadvantages.

However, this kind of academic issue is not the top priority for Rove. He needs to save people.

The young man checked the conditions of the Indians again. After repeated inspections, he discussed with Margery and determined that they had been poisoned by snapdragon toxin.

Snapdragon is also called skeleton grass.

The two names are very different, originating from the blooming and fading of flowers...the appearance fluctuates greatly.

When in bloom, the flowers of snapdragons are particularly beautiful and elegant, like goldfish swimming in the water.

When the flowers die, the snapdragons will form seed pods in the shape of a terrifying skull with two eyes and a mouth...it's scary to look at.

This kind of skull-shaped seed pod contains chronic poison. After taking a large amount, the blood will gradually coagulate into clots.

"Their blood is poisonous, and we need to use leech therapy to suck out the poison." Luo Fu looked at Dana and warned:

"You need to catch some black leeches. The more, the better."

"Okay... okay, I understand!" Dana nodded quickly.

She ran to communicate with her tribesmen again, but those tribesmen obviously did not trust Luo Fe, and they had a quarrel.

Luo Fe didn't say anything and just waited quietly. He was just a doctor and could not make decisions for others.

Whether you believe it or not is the other person's business and has nothing to do with him.

The quarrel continued until two more tribesmen died before the Indians reached a consensus and went out to look for leeches.

While waiting, Luofu asked Dana to take him to her medicine storage room.

Just like Hagrid's cabin, the herbs here are also weighed by the pound. The bitter rice flower alone, a magical plant unique to Arizona, is piled up in half the room.

In a cabinet, there were also more than a hundred corked vials and countless jars of dried herbs, each with the name of the medicine written on it.

These are the ancestral secret medicines of the tribe.

When Luo Fu was about to leave, he asked Dana for some. She probably wouldn't refuse.

Of course, the premise is to save her tribe. If he fails, he should think about how to take Margaery away...

Soon, the tribesmen found black leeches. They were as big as hotpots, their bodies were black, and they looked very disgusting.

Rolf first treated Dana's brother Alu. He cut open the young man's chest with a dagger, and black pus and blood slowly flowed down.

He picked up the leech and poured it on Aru's pale chest. The black leech followed the blood and got into the wound.

"Prepare another big bucket for me." Luo Fu continued to order: "Fill it with boiling hot water."

It's not that he wants to take a bath, but he wants to take a bath with black water leeches... Black water leeches are a double-edged sword, they can absorb toxins, but if they cannot be eliminated in time, they will also suck the boy dry.

It just so happens that black water leeches are afraid of high temperatures and will emerge from the human body after steaming in hot water for a while.

A fire was quickly lit at the door, and after the bath water was boiling, he poured it into the large mahogany bath. Luo Fu helped the boy get into the tub.

After soaking for less than three minutes, long leeches came out of the body.

Luofu carefully picked off the leeches, and the worms squirmed slowly between his fingers. They were no longer black, but turned into shiny pink after being filled with blood.

You don’t need to crush this thing to death, you can keep it as a snack for the little basilisk, and it will burst into pulp in one bite, which is sour and refreshing.

As a mother, Luo Fu is also conscientious in her duties.

After moving Aru to the bed, Rove gave him some painkillers. Halfway through taking them, the boy suddenly woke up and started coughing violently.

The room instantly erupted with cheers, cheers, whistles, gasps of horror, excited whispers, and... Dana's cry.

Luofenian wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. If the treatment failed, he would immediately take Margaery away. Fortunately, he succeeded.

That's what it's like to be a doctor. Some medical problems cost you money, and some medical problems cost your life!

Luofu treated another person and demonstrated the entire process to Dana in detail.

"Okay, you can treat them this way." After Luo Fu finished explaining, he turned around and walked out of the room.

Margery didn't know where she had gone, so the boy quickly searched for her in the village and finally found her in the northwest corner.

The girl was standing by a well, bending over and looking down.

"You're not going to commit suicide by jumping into the well, are you?" Rolf walked up to Margery and said with a smile, "If you want to jump down, I won't save you."

Margaery winked and giggled:

"Don't worry, if my sister commits suicide, she will definitely pull you along. Just treat it as if we both died in love. What a sad and beautiful way to die.

It's much better to die in bed than me, or for you to be eaten by a magical creature... these two ways of death are much better, right?"

"Okay, you big-headed ghost!" Luo Fu rolled his eyes.

Margery stretched out her arms and hugged Luolf, who was radiating cold air all over his body, like holding a big piece of ice. She rubbed it and said comfortably:

"It's so hot, I'd better hold you to cool down... What do you think of those poisoned Indians?"

"Someone must have poisoned me." Luo Fu lowered his voice and said:

"Snapdragon is a Mediterranean magical plant that is rare in North America. The possibility of them eating it collectively is too small."

"I just asked Dana, she said this is the main source of drinking water for their tribe." Margaery stepped on the edge of the well.

"Do you think someone poisoned you here?" Luofu frowned and said, "What's the purpose?"

"It should be for the pyramid." Margaery whispered.

"Those reliefs?" Luo Fu asked doubtfully: "There is indeed gold and gems on them, and they look quite valuable."

[Recommended, @@ Zhuishu is really useful, everyone should try it soon.]

"No...I mean what's in the altar at the top of the pyramid." Margaery shook her head.

"What could be there?"

"I've seen Dana's memories." Margaery leaned into Rolf's ear and whispered:

"At the top of the pyramid is an... Quetzalcoatl egg."
