Shao Xuan was startled. He moved his eyes away and looked at the animal skin roll again. It was still the same symbols.
However, when he stared at the "ink blob" for a while, the brown fruit appeared again. It was very clear, as if a real object was placed in front of his eyes. Even the wrinkles on the fruit's skin could not be seen in detail.
What was going on?!
In the past, Shao Xuan would only see those illusionary pictures in front of his eyes when he was in danger or in a special environment. But now, he was not in danger, and he did not encounter any special terrain like the Green Thief. He was just staying in this medicine house. If the illusionary pictures were because of this special place, why did they only appear now after so long?
This animal skin roll was not ordinary.
Shao Xuan no longer stared at the ink blob. Instead, he changed the picture and continued to stare at it.
Soon, Shao Xuan found that the other pictures were similar to the ink blob. After staring for a while, a picture of a real object would gradually appear on the drawings. It was very clear.
Shao Xuan saw a lot of herbs in this animal skin roll. Among them were the Wind Ball and the Green Thief that he had found when he went out with the advance group this year. There were also many other strange-looking herbs.
What surprised Shao Xuan the most was that the Wind Ball and the Green Thief had some traces because of the traps. Shao Xuan had set up the traps himself and caught these two herbs. Naturally, he could recognize them at a glance. The pictures in this animal skin roll were exactly the same as the ones in Shao Xuan's memory!
They were the real objects reproduced!
Looking at the other pictures, there were not only pictures of plants, but also of animals.
On this animal skin scroll, the first half of the scroll was drawn with plant medicinal materials, while the second half was drawn with animal medicinal materials. However, no matter which type it was, there was only a simple symbol, and there was no description of how to obtain these finished products.
There were many animal herbs. Shao Xuan could only see the shape of the finished products, but he could not tell which part of which animal these finished products were. The annotations on the side were limited, so it was impossible to understand it in detail.
Shao Xuan flipped through the rest of the animal skin scrolls on the stone table. Except for the one in his hand, the rest of the animal skin scrolls were very ordinary. It could be seen that the artist had tried his best to draw the objects as clearly as possible, but his drawing skills were limited. Shao Xuan could not see the images of the objects in these drawings. Compared to the reproduction of the objects, the difference was huge.
Shao Xuan recalled the time when he went to the shaman's place and saw the shaman's drawings. At first glance, those drawings looked very simple, but every stroke seemed to be extremely difficult. Now, thinking about the animal skin scroll in his hand, Shao Xuan had a guess in his heart.
When Gui Ze finished processing the herbs in a stone plate, Shao Xuan took the special animal skin scroll and asked, "Was this scroll written by the shaman himself?"
Gui Ze looked sideways and saw the animal skin scroll in Shao Xuan's hand. Her originally calm face suddenly became nervous. She quickly walked over and looked carefully. After confirming that the animal skin scroll was not damaged, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She originally wanted to take the animal skin scroll from Shao Xuan's hand and put it away to avoid any damage. However, thinking that the shaman had personally agreed to let Shao Xuan come to learn, she hesitated for a moment and withdrew her hand.
"This is indeed written by the shaman himself. This is the one he wrote this year. You … Be careful when you read it. Don't break it!" Gui Ze stared at the animal skin scroll in Shao Xuan's hand and said seriously, "Every time the shaman comes, he will look through it. If he breaks it, he will be angry."
Shao Xuan naturally knew how important the shaman was to the people in the tribe.
Nodding, Shao Xuan replied, "I know. I will be careful."
"By the way, have you read this too?" Shao Xuan raised the animal skin scroll in his hand and asked.
Gui Ze heard this and smiled. Her eyes were filled with unconcealed reverence. She said, "This was written by the shaman himself. Only he can read it. No one else can understand it."
She thought that Shao Xuan was the same as her, who couldn't understand what was written on the animal skin roll. She had seen similar animal skin rolls when she first entered the medicine house. However, she heard that this kind of animal skin roll belonged to the Shaman Volume, which was completely different from ordinary animal skin rolls.
"Wu Roll. Only the shaman can understand it. So, if you can't understand this, you should change to other animal skin scrolls. " After saying this, Gui Ze went back to the big stone table to process the herbs. There were still several stone plates on the table that needed to be processed. Moreover, the hunting team would be back soon, so the herbs needed to be mixed as soon as possible. She did not have much time to talk to Shao Xuan.
After Gui Ze left, Shao Xuan looked down at the animal skin scroll in his hand and whispered, "Wu Roll?"
Gui Ze misunderstood him, but he did not explain. It was even more impossible for him to say to Gui Ze, "Ah, I'm sorry, but I can understand it!"
Wu Roll. Only the shaman can understand it? Who said that?
Shao Xuan shook his head and moved a wooden chair over. He spread the animal skin scroll on the small stone table and continued to look at the drawings. He had only roughly glanced at a few of them, and there were many others that he had not seen yet. Even if the annotations were not clear, he could at least remember them. Maybe he would encounter them when he went hunting in the future.
Since it was called Wu Roll, it must be because of the shaman.
The drawings made by the shaman were different from those made by others. The shaman might have used some special ability to draw his consciousness into the drawings. Even though the drawings looked simple, there were many secrets hidden in them.
If anyone could understand these drawings, why would Ta and the other hunters have other drawings? The drawings in the hands of the two hunting team leaders were of course drawn separately, so that they could be understood.
Shao Xuan left the medicine house in the afternoon. He could not spend the night there.
Not long after Shao Xuan left, the shaman came to the medicine house.
Hearing Gui Ze respectfully report the results of the processing of the herbs in the afternoon, the shaman smiled and said, "Very good. Thank you for your hard work."
The old man and the young man had the same expression on their faces, but Gui Ze's face was filled with joy because of the shaman's compliment.
After asking about the herbs, the shaman asked again, "How was Xuan's performance today?"
"I taught him how to process the herbs, and then he was reading the animal skin scroll." Gui Ze briefly told the shaman what had happened today, and pointed to the small stone table, "He also looked at your animal skin scroll. I guess he was just like me, confused."
The shaman's expression changed slightly, but it was too fast for Gui Ze to notice.
"How long did he look at that animal skin scroll?" asked the shaman.
"Almost half a day." He even yawned. Gui Ze did not say the second part, for he was afraid that the shaman would be angry.
The shaman was silent for a while, and then said slowly, "Don't mind him. You go about your business. The hunting team will be back soon. Prepare three portions of the herbs we need."
"Yes."
The next day, Shao Xuan came to the medicine house again. Gui Ze was still busy at the big stone table. Shao Xuan stood aside and watched him for a while. He helped to move things down, and read the preliminary processing methods of some new herbs. After reading all of them, he turned to other places. When he glanced at the small stone table where the animal skin scroll was placed, he paused. He found that there was another animal skin scroll on the table. Judging from the quality of the animal skin scroll, it was very similar to the one from the Wu Roll yesterday.
Shao Xuan picked up the new animal skin scroll and opened it. What came into his eyes was indeed the same as the one from the Wu Roll yesterday. However, this animal skin scroll did not contain a single image, but a series of images.
What was recorded on this animal skin scroll was the processing methods for eight commonly used medicinal plants. From selecting, cutting, steaming, drying, and storing, there were all descriptions. Looking at these pictures, Shao Xuan felt as if he was looking at a pair of experienced hands, demonstrating a series of processes in front of him.
After a series of rune images, there were also annotations.
The images and the words were very clear and profound.
