Liu Shenghan asked them how they looked at Amber.

There is no point in being vigilant at this point. In such a big house, there is no place for you to imitate or replace it. When it got dark, she lit the oil lamp on the table, took the gem, held both ends with her thumb and forefinger, and looked at it carefully under the lamp. Perhaps the texture is uneven. Although the blue amber is very clear except for the center, the large shadow cast on the wall is still light and dark, a little turbid.

The light and shadow are still blue, giving people a texture like sparkling waves. The firelight swayed gently in the slight wind, giving the light and shadow a swaying effect, as if flowing on the wall.

The gall-like bubble in the middle is a small, strange shadow. Its main body is nearly round, and the other end is decorated with several slender strands of floc. Liu Shenghan looked at the wall, then at the firelight, adjusted the direction of the amber in his hand, moved the oblate outline upward, and continued to fine-tune the distance and position.

Qi Huan took the medicine Liu Shenghan gave him and suddenly felt refreshed. She asked him to put the medicine bottle back, and he took a walk around the hut. There is a lower cabinet next to the medicine cabinet. There are many tubes stacked on it, and there are also many boxes. He quietly glanced over there. Everyone else's attention was on Lan Bo, and Qi Huan picked up a paper tube. He unfolded it carefully and discovered that it was a painting. The light here was too dim and Qi Huan could not see clearly. He could only see the outlines of flowers and plants. He vaguely remembered that he had seen the flowers in this painting in the dense forest. So Qi Huan got closer and saw a few small letters next to it, which were probably descriptions and introductions to this kind of flower. He didn't look at it carefully, he just rolled up the picture and put it back, and quietly picked up a few more. They were basically plants, with two small animals and one landscape. He didn't read them all. After all, the ones below were not easy to get, and he would be scolded if he messed them up. After all, we are still in someone else's house, and I don't really think of myself as an outsider.

In comparison, he was actually more curious about where the paper came from. The paper used for drawing should be thick and white, and the quality requirements are not low. But I'm afraid it's impossible to make paper in this "wilderness". Therefore, Liu Shenghan must often go to towns to buy paper. She must also have a lot of money, after all, paper is not a cheap product anywhere.

"Water gall... That's true." Liu Shenghan suddenly said, "But this is actually a kind of... um, insect amber? Flower amber? Or - fish amber?"

"Fish amber?"

Bai Ya looked at the stone in her hand and couldn't figure out why. There are petals, leaves, bird feathers, and insects in amber. Although it is rare, it does not sound unusual. Fish amber is rare. Whether it's tiger's tears or tree resin, it takes very stringent conditions to wrap a fish. It is said that the only piece of amber in the world that is definitely made of fish, with clear fish scales and fins inside, is not complete, and is in the emperor's treasure house. It seems like someone paid tribute to it. Many people said it was fake and man-made. It doesn't matter whether it is right or not, as long as the emperor likes it.

"Where are the fish?"

"Here, here."

Lord Ruyue stretched out an onion-like finger and pointed at the center of the blue amber.

"That is?"

"It's a jellyfish."

"Jellyfish?"

"Jellyfish."

Bai Ya's eyes straightened, and Jun Aoyan leaned slightly from the couch. Qi Huan was also stunned, and then immediately ran back to the table. After Liu Shenghan was sure, he threw Lan Bo at him casually, and he caught it in a panic. By the light, he took a good look at this strange gem again, and Bai Ya also walked over to take a look. Now that they have the "answer", no matter how they look at it, the water bladder is still in the shape of a jellyfish. But perhaps due to the temperature, it melted, and there was still liquid flowing in the gas outline of the jellyfish. But there were so few things that they didn't notice at all before.

"How could the resin drip into the sea? It's weird enough that it can coat river fish."

Qi Huan really couldn't understand. This is just a small jellyfish seedling. He does not believe that there is a naturally formed "jellyfish amber". There must be some unknown secret in it. Bai Ya also felt strange, but he still made a rational guess:

"Maybe not resin? Maybe artificial?"

"Everything you said is possible...but such divine power may not really come from 'human' hands. Maybe the Poseidon is real. The blue resin is beyond the scope of my knowledge. call……"

Liu Shenghan sighed, but it was very light, and there was even a smile on her face. Qi Huan looked at her and felt that Liu Shenghan looked younger than during the day. But her temperament always shows a kind of maturity, the kind of stability that can only be gained after going through the vicissitudes of the world. Moreover, she seemed to have a strange passion for the unknown. It's just him, Bai Ya doesn't like this kind of enthusiasm. Perhaps because Liu Hansheng's "unknown", which normal people should be afraid of, reminded him of Jun Aoyan's "killing", which normal people should also be afraid of. In this case, it makes sense.

All strange women.

But Bai Ya doesn't hate this "strangeness". These two women were completely different from the weak members of the opposite sex with whom he had the most contact. There is a kind of strength in them, a kind of strength that women are born with but are often suppressed by the so-called masculinity in the world - this is often denied and killed before they can show it. As time goes by, they themselves no longer admit it, or no longer believe in themselves. Not that these are the abnormal, even bloody parts. He himself knows that most men have always had double standards. When this thing is put on men, it becomes bloody, while women are vicious.

It's all the same, no difference. The entire human race is no different.

In this quiet night, Jun Aoyan was lying on the hospital bed, and the other two people made beds on the spot. Liu Shenghan said that given her some time, she decided to research the use of amber. She locked herself in the room, and occasionally there was a small rustling sound inside. Bai Ya was always vigilant, worried that this thing would be stolen by her.

"I don't think one night is enough for her to create a guy to fool us, right?"

"There are so many strange people and strange things in the world, how can you guarantee it?"

"All her belongings are here. If she can escape, the monk can't escape from the temple."

Although Bai Ya didn't answer, he somewhat believed Qi Huan's statement. After all, he fell asleep quickly. He turned back into the familiar corpse of Qi Huan and couldn't wake up no matter how hard he pushed. Qi Huan himself was also very sleepy. The stick of incense on the table had long since burned out, but the fragrance lingered. They all felt that their energy was slowly recovering, but after nightfall, their consciousness gradually became heavier. As soon as You Qi calmed down, he felt extremely sleepy and just wanted to cover his head and fall asleep.

The next day, Qi Huan was woken up by the dazzling sunshine. The sun came through the window and poked directly into his eyes. He straightened up, yawned, scratched his itch, turned around and looked at Jun Aoyan, who was lying peacefully on the hospital bed, and then looked at Liu Shenghan's room.

The door was wide open, but there was no one inside.

"Old Bai!" He patted the quilt next to him, "Wake up, something happened! The person is really missing!"

The slap was empty, and the bulging quilt on the side collapsed directly. It turned out that Bai Ya was not lying here at all, and his whereabouts were unknown. While he was panicking, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"What's the ghost's name?" Bai Ya held the bucket and the ladle in the other hand, "I'm afraid the whole world won't know you're awake."

"Uh... no, why did you get up so early? Where is Miss Liu?"

"She said she was going to collect medicine and would be back soon. I was afraid that she might do something wrong, so I woke up the moment she left the room. The amber has been returned to us, and I checked that it had not been stolen. She said a lot The evil recipe can cure Aoyan's disease. To be honest, I don't really believe it, but there is no other way."

Qi Huan stood up and slowly began to pack the bedding. When he learned that Miss Liu was not here, he yawned lazily and asked:

"What recipe? How evil can this be?"

"There is a bathtub in the back room. She said it was clean, but she wanted us to brush more and only use clean water - hurry up. Then add water to it and then add salt. She asked us to fill it up first Come on, she'll add salt herself. There are some other medicines in it, and I'll have to boil the water later. Remember to put all the bedding back in the same place, and don't block the way. This woman is really good at making orders..."

Bai Ya complained and went to work. Qi Huan spat behind his back, thinking to himself, you are so fucking virtuous.

Liu Shenghan came back before noon. She gathered a basket of herbs, bright mushrooms and fruits. She first put some things in the sun to dry, and then peeled the unknown fruit. After peeling, she threw the fruit away, leaving the peel.

"What is this for?" Qi Huan was a little surprised, "Can the fruit be eaten? It smells very sweet."

"You can eat it. It's just hemiplegia for a while. It starts at four hours."

Qi Huan retracted his fingers and shook his head repeatedly.

"Is it such a dangerous thing?"

"The peel is non-toxic." Liu Shenghan nuzzled towards the cabinet again, "There is a grid on the bottom layer where you put the bottle yesterday. Choose the widest leaf inside. Take three pieces and simmer them with hot water and the medicinal powder here. .Finally, filter out the medicinal residue with gauze, boil, cool, and repeat five times."

"..."

Qi Huan understands very well the reason why you have to bow your head when you are dependent on someone else. But he gradually felt what Bai Ya meant by "evil". I don’t know why, but the steps all sound so uncertain, on the edge of being reliable or unreliable. Believe it, there seems to be no harm, it just sounds stupid and troublesome; don't believe it, there is nothing you can do.

According to the method she said, the three of them struggled for a whole day. Aoyan's face looked even worse, but she didn't know if it was because of the fragrance or because she relaxed, and her whole person was extremely calm. When I put my hand up, there was still a faint breath, so it didn't look like a dead person. But the aura was clearly getting weaker and weaker. Sometimes she is awake and can blink. When she closed her eyes, she would always worry that her heartbeat would stop.

At midnight, Bai Ya and Qi Huan stood outside the door, one on each side like door gods. They carried Ao Yan to the bathtub and were kicked out by Liu Shenghan. The two of them were tired after a long day and were not in the mood to chat, so they just waited. They didn't enter the house until Miss Liu called them in. The water in the tub is pure white, like clean milk. In fact, it was a strange herb that they had brewed and mixed for a day. Neither of them knew why it was this color.

Jun Aoyan's whole body was soaked in it, and her black hair floated on it like water.

"Is this, is this okay?"

Qi Huan actually wanted to ask, wouldn't this be suffocating to death?

"No problem." Miss Liu said calmly, "Okay, give me the amber."

Bai Ya frowned and took out the amber from his arms. Liu Shenghan took it out before he could open his hand. Then, she threw the amber into the water, causing a small splash.

"That's it. Okay, I'll take her out in twelve hours. After that, she needs to rest for seven days."

"Twelve hours?!" the two said in unison.

"It must take a whole day and night." Liu Shenghan was sure.

What about bubble wine?

Both of them were murmuring in their hearts. After the water splash disappeared, there was no ripple on the pure white water, like a piece of white paper.

absurd. Bai Ya only felt that everything was completely ridiculous, including himself who followed Hu Lai.
