This dream lasted longer than Chi Feichi imagined.
He watched with his own eyes as Diana cooked a pot of medicinal soup that was "throwing out herbs without paying attention to the dosage." Then she sneaked into someone's house in the middle of the night with a small broken bowl, and when the patient's family members weren't paying attention, she jumped onto the grass boldly. He opened the patient's mouth and poured a bowl of medicine into the patient, almost choking him to death.
Then, he also watched Diana run out of the house in confusion among the sticks, returned to the small shack, and clumsily prepared medicine for herself.
Diana was not only willing to use others to test the medicine, she also liked to test the medicine herself, "If the bones ring, I will release it." She was not afraid of being poisoned, and she did not seem to doubt why the bones would ring. She just cooperated with him with a "playing" mentality.
In the hut late at night, strange murmurs and girls talking to themselves were heard from time to time.
"cracking……"
"Bones, Bones, is this what you're talking about?"
"..."
"That's it!"
"..."
"What about this? How about some of this?"
"..."
"Isn't it? What about this one? This kind of fruit is bright red and so beautiful!"
"..."
"Can't we let this one go? What a pity. What about this one?"
"..."
"Still doesn't work? What about this?"
"cracking……"
Chi Fei arrived late and was too lazy to speak. He ignored Diana's long-winded sighs and found that Diana had taken the right medicinal ingredients. He said "hmm", listened to the sound in the space, and then watched Diana throw the herbs in.
Diana worked for a long time, boiling the herbs, picked up the bowl, and finished it.
Chi Feichi: "..."
This is topical medicine!
Watching Diana as a doctor really makes one despair for the people in the dream. .
However, taking this medicine internally... is not impossible, but the effect is not very good.
"Ah, I feel better!" Diana threw the bowl on the broken table and reached out to touch the hole again.
This time, Chi Feichi saw an enlarged face of a girl from the top hole, with slightly messy chestnut hair, blue eyes, and a small nose. Except for the heavy traces of wind and sun on her face, , if you just look at the facial features, she is also a beautiful girl.
Diana stared at the hole, or maybe at the 'bones' that looked big to Chi Feichi but not so big to her, "Bones, Bones, can you sing?"
Chi Feichi: "..."
I'm afraid this is not a fool.
"Alas..." Diana sighed, moved her fingers away, and the angle of the hole also dropped a little, probably because she put down the 'bone', and quickly said cheerfully, "I'll go ask the wandering musicians in the city tomorrow. Maybe you are some kind of amazing musical instrument! But even if you’re not, it doesn’t matter. It’s great to have bones that can make sounds by my side..."
This dream lasted much longer than Chi Feichi expected.
For a long time, he watched the light outside turn from dark to bright, and watched Diana go to the city to ask the musicians with the 'bones', and then was laughed at, 'It's just a rotten bone', and watched Diana argue, 'This is mysterious and capable. Bones that make nice sounds', watching Diana take space for him to make noises, trying to blow holes, and being shamelessly silent.
It was long enough for Diana to run around in the fields wearing the 'bone', and he took a look at the scenery around the fourteenth century.
It took him a long time to see the patient's family find Diana, express their gratitude and ask for medicine.
It took him so long that he understood Diana's past, an abandoned child who didn't know who her parents were, a wild girl who was regarded as a 'liar and a gangster', and a fifteen-year-old girl who was once so lonely that she even cherished a stone.
After a long time, he witnessed Diana's growth. After being regarded as a "witch" who could cure diseases, Diana quietly began to learn and read, and began to record prescriptions seriously.
Of course, the point of "listening to the sound of bones and giving medicine" has never changed, nor has the style of completely disregarding internal and external use and relying on the quantity as it comes.
Sometimes Chi Fei gets tired and doesn't make a sound for a whole day, so Diana puts the 'bone' that holds the space on the table and studies the herbs by herself, trying to make the bone ring from time to time.
Diana became a famous witch in the city. She was no longer content to stay here and began to travel far away.
One day, two days, three days...
One year, two years, three years...
Chi Feichi saw countless spring, summer, autumn and winter in the dream, watching the girl turn into a happy and laughing woman. He also tried to use his left eye to connect to the Ark or his own space, trying to escape from the dream, but all failed. .
Fortunately, the original limitations of space gradually disappeared. He was able to leave the space and see what was carrying him.
A bone indeed.
It looks like a human finger bone, but more square, with large and small holes punched in it. Diana used a rope to pass through the two larger holes to tie it, making it look like a scary necklace tag.
Occasionally at night while living outdoors, Chi Feichi would get bored and would try to use words to make his bones make different sounds to form a simple piece of music.
And before long, Diana started humming on her way.
In a certain year, the mature witch Diana finally met her Prince Charming in a city.
Specifically, he is not a prince, but he is also the heir of a lord.
Even though the other person had a handsome appearance and elegant demeanor, Chi Feichi still felt unhappy that the little cabbage he had worked so hard to raise was being eaten by a pig.
Diana adopted the other person's surname "Montgomarie", began to pay attention to her behavior, became more and more ladylike, and began to try to inlay strange jewelry and gold on the bones.
Not only was Chi Fei late at looking at Diana's husband, he was also unhappy at looking at his 'bone'. He always felt that his wife was always talking about a horrible bone.
It was not until two years later that Diana welcomed her first child, and the two parties finally reached a compromise. Diana's husband admitted that his wife was a witch with a magical object, and the Black Death patient and the other party were found in the city. After preventing Diana from getting involved in the danger, Chi Feichi reluctantly admitted that this pig was just trying to steal his own cabbage.
The flow of time is gradually accelerating.
The spread of disease and the disaster caused by the Black Death made Diana return to the Diana she used to be.
Nosy Diana, Crazy Diana, Doctor Diana.
Even though the level of herbal medicine has improved a lot, Diana's style of brewing, adding medicine, and boldly testing medicines remains the same, and she is still so naughty.
In this era, it is not surprising for doctors to kill one or two seriously ill patients.
Yes, the glory of the Renaissance era has arrived. More ancient cultures have been unearthed. The 'God' family is no longer the only one. Music has changed from entertaining gods to entertaining people, and medicine is also developing crazily.
And this also means that Diana's glorious era has also come. She communicated with doctors with various strange medical systems, entered university, and became famous. From being called a 'witch' to being called a 'doctor' or... 'teacher'.
In contrast, Diana's husband did not understand.
Everything Diana did was not surprising hundreds of years later. In the Middle Ages, it was not understood by the traditional-minded aristocratic husbands, and due to Diana's reputation, she could not marry anyone else, so she could only have fun outside.
However, after Diana felt sad, disappointed, and desperate at the beginning, she cheered up and continued to do what she wanted to do, just like the girl who had to drug people if she wanted to.
Chi Feichi didn't even care what the man was like. Thanks to the fact that Diana wore a bone pendant at all times, he also met many strange doctors and scholars, listened to many scientific or unscientific, and even weird and unbelievable theories. I have seen many treatment scenes that are more bizarre than Diana's treatment.
The years are passing crazily.
Diana's grandson comes of age...
Diana's husband died...
Diana's son dies...
Chi Feichi saw in Diana the terrible changes that time and aging bring to the body.
Diana poured concoctions on herself every day, and her health and lifespan were stronger than others. She killed her son and almost killed her grandson.
Until that summer, Diana, who could no longer stand up, was lying on the bed, with her gray-haired grandson standing beside her, and a group of children of all sizes surrounding the luxurious bed.
It was obviously not the dilapidated mud house and messy straw mat back then. After Diana took off the necklace Bones, her tone was as joyful as the fifteen-year-old wild girl back then, "Bones, choose one of these children, I want you to Delivery, I know you don’t like to set it on any jewelry. Just like me, I hate so many constraints. Don’t worry, they are all good boys and will treat you the same as I treat you. If you want, just treat that one Ring the child, and all the wealth I leave behind will be handed over to that child."
After finishing speaking, Diana handed the necklace to her grandson beside her.
The gray-haired man had a grandfather-like demeanor. He took the necklace with both hands respectfully. After waiting for the young people and children of all sizes to stand in a row, he walked past in sequence, pausing for a moment on each nervous face.
In the crowd, a quiet and timid seven or eight-year-old girl glanced at the bone necklace from time to time, her eyes shining with respect and curiosity.
"this……"
When the man passed by the girl, Chi Feichi said out loud, "Diana, your personality is too noisy. I want to choose a quiet one this time."
The bones emitted a melodious melody like music, which made the young people who had never seen the sound of bones feel frightened and couldn't hide their surprise as they looked at the chosen girl.
"Is it Sandy... Do you think I'm too noisy?" Diana smiled and her voice quickly dropped, "Bones, please sing that section again. It's the first time you've made a lot of noise. In that section, I told them a long time ago that you are a magic bone..."
The bones could only produce a simple melody, and when that section sounded, Diana slowly closed her eyes.
The space was distorted little by little. When Chi Feichi saw everything in front of him clearly again, he saw the sloping skylight of the attic of the wooden house in front of him again. The sky was half dark and half bright, and the sound of the clock's second hand clicked in his ears.
Early morning, 4:05.
I had such a long dream just now, but I only slept for less than an hour?
Chi Feichi gently pulled back the quilt and made a 'shush' gesture to the startled Feichi. Without waking up Conan next to him, he got up and went downstairs, smoked a cigarette in the living room on the second floor, then returned to the attic and lay down again. Down.
Long nights and dreams are often a very uncomfortable experience.
I fell asleep over and over again, feeling like I had slept for a long time, but my body and mind were still exhausted.
After closing his eyes, Chi Feichi connected to the Ark with his left eye. After confirming that the energy had not been restored much, he began to pray to stop dreaming.
Let him get some good sleep for at least an hour or two.
