Servant of the Otherworldly Pharmacopoeia

"I have a body, but I am not my body. I can see and feel my body, but what can be seen and felt is not the real seer.

My body may be tired or excited, sick or healthy, heavy or light, anxious or calm, but it has nothing to do with who I am inside.

I have a body, but I am not my body. "

Xu Jiu once had the advantage of being in this kind of hopeless loneliness. After seeing it too much, the desolation became a cold-eyed onlooker and aloof from the matter.Look, I have a body that I can't control. I want to express my love, but I can't laugh. I want to bathe in the sun, but my legs can't support me to walk. I want to talk, but my voice is hoarse.I have a body that doesn't command, which doesn't make people sad, it's just lonely.

After picking up Pangpang, Xu Jiu found that the child had trouble walking. His body could only support him for two to three minutes, and his legs were atrophied and stunted.Coupled with being unable to speak, and ignoring him, he remained silent, like a ghost that does not exist in the world.

But now... Xu Jiu shook his head, the jerky voice was close to his ears, but it seemed to be blowing like a strong wind in the wilderness, with a pleasant melody.

He stuttered and asked, "Fatty, can you talk?"

The child shut his mouth tightly, as if he had just been delusional.

Xu Jiu immediately lifted him up: "That's great, baby! You really are the best kid in the world!"

The child was repeatedly thrown high, with one or two small teeth showing in his tightly pursed mouth, and then he began to giggle with a weak voice, like a coquettish little milk cat.

The two played and played until dark, Xu Jiu let the child ride on his neck, and worked under the moonlight.The work and rest habits developed in the previous life are going crazy here. It starts to get dark at about seven o'clock, and it will be dark in a short time. Fortunately, the moonlight is bright.

They cleaned up the room next to the stove.It was a layout of a living room, big and bright, the windows were wide open, and the sun and moonlight left the room full of afterglow without hindrance.

"I'm going to plant something in this room. Uh, this stone trough can be used... There are a lot of cobwebs, and the dust can be swept in..." Xu Jiu chattered, pulling the child's face with his dirty hands, "You How do you feel baby?"

The child buried his head and wiped his face.

"Talk, talk to me again, okay?"

"..." just remained silent.

Xu Jiu put the child on the ground and asked him to hug his bear: "Fatty, can you help my brother deliver these to the kitchen?" As he spoke, he handed the child some worn-out stone slabs and metal strips, which were very light , children can move.

The child looked up at him, holding the bear tightly with his little paws, not wanting to go.

"Good baby, help brother, brother will plant delicious food for you!"

The child frowned and looked up at him innocently.

Xu Jiu knew the kid's heart knot. Sometimes he would fall down while walking, and he could hold a bear with both hands and couldn't accommodate other things.

Carefully breaking the bear from the child's hands, he patiently comforted him: "My family is the most obedient, Pang Pang, put down the little bear first, here, look, the kitchen is next door, not far away, Pang Pang will be back soon."

Reluctantly, the child took it, and staggered towards the next door with the object in his arms.

Xu Jiu is going to transplant some ginger from the space and plant it in this room.He has developed well here. He has a big house to live in, although it is very run-down, and there is a magical beast guarding the house, although it is a bit fierce, and he has a child as a companion, and he is alive.

The progress of the space has been slow, and it took a long time for Xu Jiu to add a little bit.However, he is full of confidence, as long as he is moving forward, he will untie it one day.He even has a strange mentality, he will feel uneasy if things succeed too easily, and he always feels that there will be a big conspiracy waiting behind him, and he will hit someone head-on at any time.Difficulties can make people feel real, even if what he pursues is what others can get at their fingertips.

Time is like water, and the days just go by day by day.

Xu Jiu tidied up the house every day, surveying the castle like a repairman.Every three days he would exchange an egg with the car owner. When the people from the manor came to fetch the eggs, he would sometimes hand over one, sometimes two, and keep the rest. meals.

He tried to use the cooking skills of his previous life to make eggs into as many patterns as possible, and developed his cooking skills by the way.

Life is gradually getting on the right track, and some things should be put on the agenda.When he first came here, he caught a litter of newborn mice, and he is still raising them now. He puts them in the kitchen and feeds them some meat from Liche beasts every day. Although they are hungry and full, the litters still grow up quickly.

Xu Jiu picked up a lot of stones, piled them up in the corner of the kitchen according to their colors, and separated the mice one by one. Every day, they mixed the meat of Liche beasts, added some ginger pieces, ginger leaves, ginger stems, and even roots and soil to feed them. Feed different stones regularly.

He had a hide book, which he found in the room on the fourth floor, blank, and recorded the symptoms of each mouse.

The mice are numbered according to the coat color on the paws, abcde, yellow paws, white paws, yellow and white paws...

Each mouse was provided with a special food. Since he had eggs to eat, Xu Jiu left a lot of meat. According to the formula in the Pharmacopoeia and his own experimental spirit, he fed the bunch of poor mice in different ways.

"Fatty, look at the poop that Little A pulls out is red." Xu Jiu picked up the mouse feces with a small stick, put it under his nose and smelled it, "It smells sour."

The child quietly moved away from him.

Xu Jiu bowed his body and smiled, seeing his teeth but seeing his eyes: "This reddish-brown stone has been fed for a month, and the mouse is still alive, which means that it is not poisonous. It is not right, it may be chronic. The mouse's hair grows much denser, isn't it? Is it the ginger hair, or the mouse's own development, or the function of this stone?"

Xu Jiu carefully collected all the poop, and then recorded each item in the small book.

"Little B's fur is blue, and what he ate was white stones... Besides," Xu Jiu clamped the mouse, but unexpectedly, the mouse was extremely fierce, screaming loudly, with a shrill voice, and turned its head. Bite on the metal clip, leaving several deep and shallow holes.The mouse picked up the trap and was about to climb up along it!

"Besides, it's too fierce. Look at the eyeballs, they are so wide that they are full of blood."

Xu Jiu memorized each item, completely forgetting himself.

Fatty looked at him, then at the chattering mice in the stone trough, stood there for a while, and then went out.

The child hugged the bear and climbed up the stairs step by step. This was undoubtedly a big project for him, and he stopped to catch his breath after reaching the first floor.

He likes to walk very much, although he can't walk very far.The little head is also like other children, muddled and unclear.At the beginning, I didn't know how to get there, lost my way when I went far, cried when I couldn't find my way, and then ran into Xu Jiu.

In the child's head, all the people who are good to him are good people, and there will be a sense of intimacy and praise spontaneously.He doesn't have a clear idea of ​​aesthetics yet, he just thinks that the grown-up who brought him back is very good-looking, with sparkling eyes, loves to smile at him, and even made him Yuanyuan.

Yes, the child named the doll in his hand "Yuanyuan" because it is round and fluffy.I don't even want to go home...

The child stopped suddenly, thinking hard, where is home,...forgot.

My brother said that everyone has a father and a mother, but he can't remember.With only such a small brain capacity, it is really difficult to think about it.

The child was quickly distracted, and continued to climb up.

He was going to the room on the fourth floor with the beautiful carved door.

Xu Jiu usually doesn't allow him to go up, without an adult to hold him, it's hard for a little one to climb that high.However, now the child is trying to climb up, and then simply put Yuanyuan on the inside of the stairs temporarily, and rubs up with hands and feet.

He wanted to go to that room very much. Children are very adventurous, and they would go there whenever they wanted, without thinking too much.

When Xu Jiu came back to his senses, he realized that the child had disappeared.

He broke out in a cold sweat from fright, and ran out in a hurry: "Fatty, fat?"

There was none in the room, so Xu Jiu hurriedly searched in the hall.

The empty hall was full of echoes, and the sound of the wind outside was still whistling.Xu Jiu rushed out, and there was no one in the wilderness.According to the child's pace, it will not be so fast that he can't even see the shadow.

Xu Jiu began to search in the castle.

Although the castle was tortuous and dilapidated, there was only one staircase. Xu Jiu soon found that the child's dolls were well placed, and the traces of careful placement could be clearly seen.

Xu Jiu picked up the doll and began to search layer by layer.

When the child was found, he was sleeping, huddled in a large jade bed on the fourth floor, without a quilt, just a small ball.

Xu Jiu picked him up, he was a little strange about Pangpang's obsession with this room.Xu Jiu asked the child when he found the key, but naturally he couldn't ask anything. The child was still a "dumb" at that time.

"Could it be that you are a child of a noble family?" Except that the noble family can see the way of hiding keys, Xu Jiu really can't think of any other explanation.

The child was sleeping soundly on top of him, and Xu Jiu had mixed feelings in his heart. "What if your parents come here in the future? Pangpang will stay with brother forever, okay?"

Xu Jiu sighed and left with the child in his arms.

I didn't see that after he left, the eyes of the stone eagle in the room flashed a blue light quickly.
