Maybe Lin Xi is curious about the iron pot, and Bai Qiurong, who is preparing the medicine, explains with a smile: "the stove and the iron pot are specially made by the master to boil the ointment for medicine. The villagers are doing manual work, so it is inevitable that they will have backache, so the master will boil the plaster to relieve their pain."
"However, each time the plaster is cooked, it takes a long time, so this iron pot and stove have not been used several times. The last time the plaster was cooked or during the Chinese new year, maybe the doctor was too busy to clean up. Please don't be surprised, Mr. Lin...
put the lid back in place, and Lin Xi looked up at Bai Qiurong, who was concentrating on grasping herbs, He said with a smile, "don't worry, Mr. three. I'll just have a look at it. However, the kindness of the old man's doctor is really admirable. Speaking of it, I've learned that little medical skill, but it's a shame for my teacher. I don't know if Mr. two can come back at noon?"
Without raising his head, Bai Chunrong said with a gentle smile: "I didn't expect that Mr. Lin also knows medical skills, but he is specialized in medical skills. I believe Mr. Lin is not specialized in medicine, is he? On the contrary, I've been following my master for so many years, and I haven't even learned how to do it. I'm really ashamed to think about it. "
After a pause, Bai Qiurong continued: "as for my second sister, if it's right, she should be able to come back at noon, but she may also come back at night. She is very talented in medical skills and has got the true biography of the master. She also keeps improving on all kinds of medicinal materials and can pick them as much as possible. She will never buy them from drug dealers, so I'm not sure about the time."
He nodded thoughtfully. Lin Xi was silent, as if he had something on his mind. Then he made a slight "um" sound and began to visit. Although he wanted to thank him face to face, he was not in a hurry for a while.
"Wow, Linxi, come and see, there are mountains, water and woods here. The scenery is really beautiful ·····"
looking at the sound, you can see that girl Tongyan is lying on the railings of the corridor bridge, facing the breeze blowing from the Phoenix Lake, opening her arms as if embracing something.
At that time, the child's face was more like a carefree and happy girl than a tiger's grinning. Even Lin Xi couldn't help smiling.
Of course, if you put no worry on Tong Yan, you can also use other words to describe it, that is "big chest without brain", but it's just a joke. Who makes her chest so big?
When you walk to the corridor bridge, the scenery here is really different. Apart from the microwave waves and the gentle breeze, if you look carefully, the water of Phoenix Lake is clear and bright, like a mirror, and you can even see the aquatic plants under the water and the swimming fish passing through the aquatic plants.
It's a few meters or even deeper, but it's only a foot deep. When you hang the whole sky upside down in the lake, you can't tell whether it's the lake or the sky.
There is also the mountain behind the Phoenix Village, which is also reflected in the lake. The scenery of the mountain and the water are integrated, just floating with the waves.
In addition, if you can see from the left side of the corridor bridge, it's all along the shore of Phoenix Lake, and you can have a panoramic view of the whole Phoenix Village. Maybe it's the reason why Phoenix Lake is honored as "holy lake", so that no one dares to repair the house by the Phoenix Lake, otherwise it's blasphemy and disrespect.
However, at this time, the medicine stove stands on the Phoenix Lake, which is very conspicuous. After all, this is the only one in the whole Phoenix Village.
"Eh, the stone wall is so smooth and beautiful, just like a mirror. It's just opposite the medicine stove, but it's so strange, how can you feel that the stone wall can be seen everywhere"
again, following the sound, I don't know when, Tong Yan ran to the right side of the corridor bridge and also looked at the opposite side on the railing, which is about ten meters long High, like a rockery, but without losing the rockery of the stone wall, quite confused mutter, obviously very curious.
As early as yesterday, when he entered the village, Lin Xi saw this stone wall. If it is phoenix lake and the holy land of Phoenix Village, then this stone wall is undoubtedly the symbol of Phoenix Village, because no matter where you are in Phoenix Village, you can see this smooth stone wall like a mirror.
But because this stone wall is at the bottom of the mountain, it should be a part of the mountain as a whole, and on the mountain there are strange rocks, jagged and uneven, but this stone wall is very different, like artificial polishing.
But Lin Xi can see that there is no trace of artificial chiseling on this stone wall. It is all formed by natural weathering. It can be called "uncanny workmanship" of nature.
"Yan Yan, be careful, if you fall down, no one will save you, I'm a dry duck"
originally a kind reminder, but Tong Yan glared at me and said, "I want you to take care of me!"
He was choked by Tong Yan again. Lin Xi's heart was choked. He secretly scolded himself for being talkative. He was really full and had nothing to do. Then he was too lazy to talk to Tong Yan and went straight back to the medicine stove.
"How come there are so many candles here, short, thick, thin, and with scales? How do you think these candles are so strange"
just after returning to the medicine stove, Lin Xi heard Wu Younan's voice. It seemed that he was asking himself and asking Bai Qiurong. He looked into Wu Younan's hand and saw that he was lying in front of the wall next to the decoction area There are two long tables for sundries.
On the long table, there were two small cupboards. At that time, Wu Younan opened the one on the right, which was full of red candles. As Wu Younan said, those candles were riding strange shapes.Why are there so many candles?
In fact, Lin Xi also speculated that Fenghuang village is located in a remote area, and there is no water and electricity supply yet. The villagers are self reliant, and the lighting also uses kerosene lamps or candles. Therefore, these candles should be specially prepared to avoid trouble.
Bai Qiurong's words also confirmed Lin Xi's conjecture: "before the master had a serious illness, he liked to study medical skills here. He also tasted herbs to know their properties. He often forgot to eat and sleep, and forgot the time. So these candles were mostly prepared for the master."
Speaking of this, Bai Qiurong's mood suddenly depressed: "but in the past two years, the master seldom came here. These candles were bought by the second sister. She said it was not easy to get in and out once, so she prepared more to avoid the trouble of running back and forth."
"As for those candles, why do they have thick and thin ones? It's because the second sister is afraid of the dark. So when she lights candles, she likes to use thick ones, saying that they are so bright. And those candles with scales are for elder brother."
"I'm not afraid of jokes. Big brother is good at everything, but he has a poor sense of time. Originally, wearing a watch can avoid things, but he doesn't like wearing these things. He says it's uncomfortable."
After a pause, Bai Qiurong seemed to think of something again. He raised his head and added: "in two days, master's 80th birthday will be coming back. Elder brother will also come back from Kyoto, so those candles with scales are specially prepared for elder brother by second sister."
After listening to Bai Qiurong's explanation, Lin Xi and Wu Younan are finally relieved, and they don't see much more. She gently closes the cupboard and turns her eyes to the long table.
At this time, Wu Younan suddenly surprised and said: "eh, this candlestick is really beautiful. Lin Xi, come and have a look. Is this an antique? I'd like to thank you very much?"
Seeing Wu Younan's excited appearance, Lin Xi immediately finds it funny, but doesn't show it. He looks at Wu Younan's fingers and sees a copper Candlestick half a meter away from the cupboard.
The shape of the candlestick is simple, about 20 cm high. It is divided into three layers from the base. The top layer is the auspicious bird flying. There are seven detachable combination of spirit animal lamps in the middle and the bottom layer in different directions. The base is decorated with relief, which is rich but not complicated. In such a narrow space, the composition of such a complex candlestick can show the complexity of its craft .
As a matter of fact, Lin Xi didn't know about the candlestick, nor did he hear from Shu Lao. However, he judged that the candlestick should be from the Qing Dynasty, but it was an imitation of the Han Dynasty candlestick. After all, only the Han Dynasty Candlestick had such a complex and exquisite decoration.
In addition, Lin Xi also read in professional books that the earliest use of copper candlesticks can be traced back to the Warring States period. However, from the Warring States period to the Han Dynasty, the shapes of copper candlesticks are not only diversified, but also tall and exquisite, such as the famous "Changxin palace lantern".
