4 - Leafto and doll drink
Yo Huiyin, sat up after a while of plotting.
She grabbed a piece of paper, While she write, Gu Ruo who was beside her watched her attentively.
'Help me create a medicine'
These 5 letters shocked the little boy, he never knew that the girl she calls older sister would ask her to help her make medicine, He didn't even knew she knew medicine! Without question the little boy nodded his head happily.
He'd do anything for older sister.
After all she saved him when he was a baby from a wolf before and he was left by his parents in the woods, That time she could still walk, He still felt guilt in his heart, Uncle Weng told him how Yo Huiying came back bloody, her legs was bitten multiple times but she endured it to save him and walked for a long time just to get him to safety.
For her voice he wasn't so sure how she lost her voice, but his sure it has something to do with the mother and daughter duo her father took in.
"Alright! I'll go and inform Uncle Weng. Where should we make medicine?"
Yo Huiyin, began writing again.
'Kitchen'
___________
Gu Ruo asked for elder sister and brother, Sister Lu Luo and brother Lu Su who helped rescue her before at the cell, both had one arm of Yo Huiyin, carefully guiding her to the kitchen.
As they reach the empty kitchen, she never thought to even ask the year she is in now.
The materials were old and rusty and the room was quite unteady. She shrugged it off, they sat her on a chair carefully. As soon as they let her go she gave them the list of materials she needed, She can't let them do it themselves because one mistake can ruin the whole process. The two teens nodded and gathered the materials.
A pot infront of her and a small table beside her with the ingredients, she began to work. Lu Luo , Lu Su and Gu Ruo watched her attentively, Her hands moving at swiftly and elegantly that They didn't knew what was going on. Soon a pot of colorless liquid filled with leaves and other ingredients entered their sight. She wrote and showed them
'Boil and mix until color changes'
They did as told, they watched the pot carefully making sure they don't mess up.
"Woah!" They saw the color changed quickly from colorless to green and then to blue.
Shock and delight filled their eyes, shock that Their Miss older sister was right and has actually talent for such witchery or medicine, And delight that they didn't made a mistake.
"Older sister! It changed! It changed!"
She gestured to them to bring the pot to her. They did.
Once the hot pot of medicine was placed infront of her the aroma entered her nose, she took the cloth and a bowl placing the cloth on top, she looked around and found clippings used for hanging clothes and used it to clip the cloth in place.
She poured the liquid into her makeshift strainer, The ingredients dissolved leaving the leaves behind. She took the leaves and crushed them to powder and ser aside. She was missing one last ingredient...
'Bird drops'
The three companions looked at each other in shock, bird poo? , wincing at the thought of someone actually taking bird drops as medicine makes one puke.
Yet still even if they did winced and felt disgusted they still went out to grab and look for bird drops.
As a scientist for poison back in the 21st century she was also more like a caretaker and wrestler of wild animals, She takes care of the wild animals that her fellow scientists left. Her fellow scientist would take a snakes poison and leave the snake in a tank to die, on the other hand she still had a heart, She've been taking care of them and even learned of the stuff they do and produce, like bird drops.
She took the bird drops and mixed it onto the powdered leaves, she gestured them to help her wrap a teaspoon of each powder in a small cloth and the liquid to small jars. She made to medicines, The powdered for physical wounds and the liquid for internal pains.
Once they finished they set out back to her room with the 10 powders and 20 jars of liquid medicine into a basket.
"Please help!" A little girl ran towards them in panic.
"What is it yun'er?" Lu Luo asked the little girl
"It's brother Shu! He has been beaten by Master Yo Quijin!" Yo Huijin's eyes darkened hearing the despicable mans name.
Yo Quijin, Her 'Father' left his 1st daughter to the ruthless abuse of his concubine and Concubines daughter. Now that these people helped and cared for her she wouldn't let them suffer on the hands of demons such as the Yo family.
"What? Those monsters! Give as a moment to lay--" Yo huiyin shook her head, a cold glint in her eyes.
"Do you wanna come with us?" The disabled girl nodded.
Soon they reached the little straw house where the little girls brother was laid down after being ruthlessly beaten, The coldness in Yo Huiyins eyes intensified, She leaned her body forward asking them to sit her beside the bleeding young man, She reached out and took the basket from Gu Ruo's hands.
She took the one jar of liquid and one powder, she let the half dead man drink the tiny bottles liquid contents and sprinkled the powder on the wounds the man had. Slowly in everyones naked eyes the wounds where quickly closing the bloods were still there but the wound was closing, the young mans expression slowly turned from agonizing in pain to dumbfounded.
"I-Impossible!" everyone who heard the young man woke up from shock and expressed their shock.
if they knew that they weren't the only one shock and that the one who made the concoction was also shocked, they might think that this was made by a ghost. the dumbfoundness in their eyes was replaced by awe and everyone celebrated, to their eyes they found a treasure of a person that the world saw as a waste, Now she won't be bullied, and they were also friends with this person.
who wouldn't be happy?
'For some reason healing process that my concoction made is faster than I expected, I was sure enough that it will take a couple hours, not on the spot... What's going on?'
not only did the man healed but his skin also looked like it has been bathing in milk.
"Sister Yo Huiyin, What was that miracle medicine you gave me?" the young man asked with awe in his eyes.
she wrote on the paper Gu Ruo gave her 'I call it Leafto and Doll Drink...'
