MTL - This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 49 witch doctor

Inside the bamboo house, Jiang Xuan sat in front of the big corner bed.

"Tell me, how did you get bitten by a poisonous snake?" Jiang Xuan asked inexplicably.

Dajiao lowered his head in shame and said, "I missed... when I caught the snake."

"Why do you want to catch a snake?"

"Because the snake entered the cave and stole the worms. I saw that the snake was out of breath and grabbed it with my hands. I didn't expect the poisonous snake to be so fast that it turned around and bit it."

"So it is." Jiang Xuan suddenly realized.

Snakes eat meat, and they eat a variety of small animals, such as frogs, rodents, birds, and various insects.

The worms that Dajiao raised in the cave are naturally within the range of snakes' diet. After being discovered by this poisonous snake, it is normal for them to sneak in and eat them.

In fact, the poisonous snakes near the Vine tribe have been cleaned up several times, and most of them have been thrown into the pot.

But this is a virgin forest, and it is impossible to clean it up completely. There will be a steady stream of snakes crawling over from other places.

"If there are often venomous snakes, this will be a problem."

Jiang Xuan frowned. He didn't have any good countermeasures in his heart, and he didn't know how to make snake repellent powder.

……

On the other side, not long after Chishao returned to the bamboo house, she just washed her hands and was about to eat something, but found that the mysterious old man had already come over.

"Old man, are you okay?" Chi Shao stood up, holding a piece of jerky in her hand.

The mysterious old man stared at Chi Shao with burning eyes, and said, "Do you want to learn the art of witch doctor?"

"What?" Chi Shao felt a little confused.

"I said, do you want to learn the art of witch doctor?" the old man repeated again.

"Witch... the magic of witch doctors?"

Chi Shao was shocked, this is something only a witch can learn!

"Yes, if you are willing to learn, I can teach you."

The mysterious old man's expression was serious, not like he was joking.

"Old man, who are you... who are you?"

This thing looks like a big good thing about jerky from the sky.

But Chishao is not stupid. Before the jerky fell to the ground, she would not pick it up rashly, lest she would be crushed to death.

The mysterious old man said calmly: "It's nothing to tell you, in fact, I am the last witch of the Eastern Desolate Eagle Tribe."

Chi Shao was taken aback, this is actually a witch!

Wu is the most important soul of a tribe, and generally does not leave the tribe easily, even if he goes out, he will be protected by a large number of soldiers.

For the sake of safety, almost every witch will be in the tribe forever, how could he appear here with a giant eagle?

Although there were all kinds of questions in her heart, Chi Shao did not speak, but listened quietly.

A look of reminiscence appeared in the eyes of the mysterious old man: "I have been in the tribe since I was a child, and I was trained as a witch. After I was 20 years old, I was determined to be the next witch. Since then, I have never left the tribe."

"I've been in the tribe almost all my life. No matter where I go, I'm protected by the tribe's warriors. Sacrifices, cures, records, imparts knowledge... These boring things almost occupy my entire life."

"The Eagle Tribe people yearn for freedom, and so do I, but I can only watch the warriors in the tribe fly around on giant eagles every day, but I can only stay in the tribe and do those boring things. ."

"Until one day, I found that I was very old, and I didn't have a few years to live. I realized that if I didn't go out for a walk, I would die in the tribe and become a pile of dead bones like other witches."

"So I handed the position of the witch to the successor I selected earlier. He is very good, and he has a better temperament than me, and is more suitable to be a witch than me."

"I rejected the tribe's warrior protection, and left the tribe with the giant eagle raised since I was a child. I flew all the way from the Eastern Wilderness to the Southern Wilderness to see this vast world."

Speaking of which, the mysterious old man, or the experience of the old witch, has basically finished his self-report.

The old witch looked at Chi Shao and said, "Until today, I saw your people being bitten by poisonous snakes. I suddenly realized that I can leave witchcraft and other knowledge to the Eagle Tribe."

"But the witch doctor's technique of curing diseases and saving people cannot be buried in the ground with me. I should pass it on and let it save more people!"

"Although your Vine tribe is very small, I have seen strong vitality in your tribe. I believe that you will gradually grow and continue."

"I can't teach you things that belong to witches, but I can teach you the experience of healing and saving people in my life."

The old witch looked at Chi Shao with burning eyes, and said, "So, do you want to learn the art of witch doctor?"

The old witch's words contained a lot of information, and it took Chi Shao a while to slowly recover from the shock.

"Why... why me?"

Chi Shao didn't understand how the old witch chose her.

"Actually, your leader is also very good, but he is the leader and needs to fight for the tribe most of the time."

"The art of witch doctors takes a long time to learn and identify various herbs. This process may take years or decades, and the leader simply doesn't have that much time to learn."

The old witch looked at Chi Shao softly, and said, "You're different, I've seen it before. You know a lot of herbs, and you can use them to simply heal illnesses and injuries. You are more suitable than the leader to learn the art of witch doctor."

Chi Shao was silent, the old witch was very sincere~www.novelbuddy.com~ But this incident happened so suddenly, she didn't know whether she should accept it or not.

The old witch seemed to have guessed what she was thinking: "You can learn from me for a while, try it out and then make a decision."

"On sunny days, you can go hunting, gathering, raining or snowing, and when you are free, you can learn the art of witch doctor with me, how about that?"

The old witch looked at Chi Shao expectantly, with a very sincere attitude.

Chi Shao thought about it, and there was nothing to lose if she tried it anyway, so she nodded.

"I have one more request. Whether you study witch doctor with me or not, I hope you will agree."

"you say."

The old witch's eyes became vicissitudes: "I am very old. Maybe one or two years, maybe three or five years, my life will come to an end."

"If that day comes, I hope you can wrap my body in a hide and tie it to the back of a giant eagle, and the giant eagle will take me home."

Chishao nodded without hesitation, and said, "I promise you that I will find the best animal skin and let the giant eagle take you home."

The old witch smiled and nodded, and said, "In this case, I have no regrets."

After letting go of one of his worries, the old witch and Chi Shao talked about some methods of treating poisonous snake bites and herbal medicines for detoxifying snakes. The conversation was very enjoyable.

In the evening, Chi Shao told Jiang Xuan about this, Jiang Xuan was very happy, and supported Chi Shao to learn the art of witch doctor, so that in the future, when the tribesmen fell ill, they would have an extra layer of protection.

From this day on, when Chi Shao was free, she followed the old witch to learn the art of witch doctor.

She is a serious study person, and her talent is amazingly high. She can remember the properties and curative effects of various herbs after reading them several times.
