Chapter 79： The old witch is gone

Inside the bamboo house, the old witch was packing up.

He has a lot of things, but most of them are herbs, hides, paints and some commonly used utensils and tools.

The old witch meticulously sorted everything into the animal skin bags, then tied the animal skin bags one by one and put them aside.

After doing all this, he sat by the fire pit, looking at this familiar house, and at the beating flames.

After a long time, the old witch sighed and said, "People are getting old, and they are not decisive enough. I haven't lived here for a long time, why do I feel a little reluctant?"

"Don't leave if you don't want to!"

At this moment, Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao walked in from the door together.

Jiang Xuan first looked at the house that had been tidied up, then looked at the old witch sitting by the fire pond, and sighed inwardly, knowing that the old witch had made up his mind.

The old witch looked up at Jiang Xuan, and said, "I originally planned to spend the rest of my life here, and I won't have a good life for a few years anyway."

"Why did you change your mind again?" Jiang Xuan asked in confusion.

"Because I have seen many things I have not seen or even heard of in the trading goods of the Black Teeth Tribe."

"I told you before that the reason why I ran out of the tribe at this age is to see a wider world and more things."

The old witch looked at Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao, and said firmly: "The South Wilderness is so big, I want to go and see it again."

Chi Shao clumsily retained: "But I haven't learned witch medicine yet..."

The old witch showed a kind smile on his face and said, "Son, your talent is very good, even better than the talent of the heir I chose before. Your achievements in witch doctor will definitely surpass mine in the future."

The old witch solemnly picked up a bundle of thick animal skin rolls from an animal skin bag that he carried with him, then stood up and handed it to Chi Shao.

"In this animal skin scroll, there are various healing processes and experiences that I have recorded. I will give it to you now. Remember, gather Wu Li in your eyes and look at it with your heart."

Chi Shao took the thick animal skin roll, her face was a little embarrassed, but she didn't know what to say.

"I will study hard." Chi Shao said.

She has never been an articulate person, preferring to do things silently.

The old witch said to Jiang Xuan again: "After I leave, the animal bones next to the house will be given to you. Keep some bone tools for polishing, or use them to trade some useful things."

"This...how is this funny..."

After Jiang Xuan heard this sentence, there was a feeling of pie falling from the sky.

You must know that those animal bones are a huge wealth for the tribesmen. The old witch took a little out of it and exchanged it for two precious spider silk clothes and some rare herbs from the Black Teeth tribe.

The old witch laughed and scolded: "Stop pretending, I don't know you yet? Are you happy?"

"hey-hey……"

After being exposed, Jiang Xuan was not ashamed, but just smiled at the old witch.

The old witch looked at the bamboo house where he had lived for a while, then lifted the two animal skin bags and said, "It's time for me to go."

"I'll get it for you."

Jiang Xuan snatched the animal skin bag from the old witch and helped him carry it outside.

Chi Shao also helped the old witch carry two animal skin bags, and her mood was a little down.

They walked to the open space next to the bamboo house, and the black giant eagle was already squatting on the ground and waiting.

The old witch shouted, and the black giant eagle immediately lowered its body to the lowest level, and stretched out a wing diagonally against the ground.

Jiang Xuan bravely climbed up from the giant eagle's wings, and tied the old witch's animal skin bag to a leather noose on the back of the giant eagle.

Chishao also brought up other animal skin bags and tied them to the noose on the eagle's back.

Afterwards, Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao returned to the ground.

The old witch looked around for a long time, then resolutely climbed onto the back of the giant eagle and sat on it.

The old witch turned around and was about to leave.

Jiang Xuan shouted, "Old witch, will you come back?"

This is the first time that Jiang Xuan directly called "Old Witch". This word is actually a respectful title to the tribesmen.

"If I live long enough, I should come back. I hope that by that time, your Vine tribe has grown and grown."

Jiang Xuan shouted again: "Okay, then it's settled, I must come back!"

The old witch smiled and nodded, but he didn't know how long he could live and where he would die.

"gone!"

The old witch patted the giant eagle's neck, and the giant eagle immediately flapped its wings, ran a short distance forward, and then fluttered its wings into the air.

"Wow!"

The giant eagle circled over the Vine Tribe a few times, flying higher and higher, and then flew away to the south.

"The old witch is gone."

Chi Shao was holding the thick animal skin roll, her mood was a little down, and she felt lost.

"Yeah, I don't know when I'll be back."

Jiang Xuan looked back at the empty bamboo house and felt a little uncomfortable. Maybe it was because he knew few people in this world, so every familiar person was very important.

The two stood there for a long time until the shadow of the giant eagle disappeared, and then they looked back.

They slowly walked back to the bamboo forest without saying a word along the way.

In the evening, Uncaria, Shiloh, and Nanxing came back from hunting and felt very sad to learn that the old witch was gone.

Nan Xing stroked the bone whistle calibrated by the old witch, and murmured, "Why did you just leave..."

After a night of silence, the next day, everyone came out of their parting emotions and continued to devote themselves to various tasks.

Because the environment is too harsh, it is very difficult to survive, and there is not much time to grieve the spring and the autumn.

Since Chi Shao started to study witch doctor, she has used more tools and various medicinal materials, and the small room can no longer hold it.

Jiang Xuan discussed with Chi Shao, and then took people under the stone mountain. After spending a few days, next to the source of the creek not far from the altar, they built a brand new bamboo house for her, and also built a new bamboo house for her. courtyard.

Later, Jiang Xuan took people to move all Chishao's things into the new bamboo house, and prepared all the tools for her.

Not only that, in this brand-new bamboo house, there are no shortage of bathrooms and toilets. Jiang Xuan even used the stabbed bamboo as a water pipe to connect the stream into her yard.

From this day Chishao began to live alone.

Not only that, in order to give her more time to study things belonging to witches, Jiang Xuan does not need her to continue to lead the team to hunt after the negotiation.

Chi Shao has no objection to this, she needs a lot of time to study witch medicine, and use pictures to record major events in the tribe and so on.

Inside the brand-new bamboo house, Chi Shao stood in front of a heavy "table" and unfolded the animal skin scroll that the old witch gave her.

There are no words on this animal skin scroll, but many small pictures are densely drawn. At first glance, these pictures are very abstract, and it is impossible to tell what they are.

But when Chi Shao gathered Wu Li in his eyes and looked at it with his heart according to the method said by the old witch, these small pictures changed.

They seem to be alive, squirming quickly, turning into concrete pictures, with sounds and images, making Chishao like watching a movie, remembering all kinds of knowledge in their minds.

This is the inheritance method of witches. If there is no witch power, even if you get this animal skin scroll, it is useless, because you can't understand it at all.
