Fairy on top

Cross the bamboo bridge and enter the village.

The houses in the village are all made of bamboo and are green in color. With the majestic mountain peaks at the back, it's like walking into a watercolor painting. The houses are neatly built and symmetrical, the streets are tidy, and the village is full of women, and they are all young women about the same age as Xiao Cui.

Seeing Xiaocui leading the two of us into the village, the working women put down their work and gathered around us.

"The female donor's hand is seriously injured. Is it poisoned?" A woman enthusiastically asked for the ointment, "I have an ointment that can cure hundreds of poisons. I will apply it on you right now."

As she spoke, the woman opened the ointment and started to apply it to my injured hand.

I panicked and was about to refuse. But before I could say anything, another woman pushed the woman holding the ointment aside.

"Her ointment is not as effective as my detoxification pills. Female donor, please take my detoxification pills."

As soon as I finished speaking, a vermilion pill was handed to me.

Facing this group of enthusiastic women, I was a little at a loss.

Xiao Siqin was also frightened by the enthusiasm of the women in front of her. She leaned closer to me nervously and whispered to me, "Mom, these are medicines. You shouldn't take them randomly, right? They didn't even check for you." If you do, I will give you the medicine directly. Why do I feel like they are unreliable?"

I patted Xiao Siqing's hand on my arm to reassure her, then I looked at everyone, gathered my thoughts, and said with a smile, "Seniors, it's not that I don't trust the medical skills of my seniors, it's just that I have this hand. The injury is very strange, and it may be difficult to be cured by ordinary medicine. I am here to ask the Holy Lady for help. Thank you for your gift of medicine, and please forgive me."

"Your palms are rotting. Aren't you poisoned?" The woman holding the ointment became unhappy and said with a serious face, "You don't mean you don't trust us. You clearly don't believe we can cure you! A little He actually asked the Holy Lady to heal him when he was poisoned. Do you think we, the Holy Lady, are idle?"

"Alu, don't be rude."

As soon as the woman holding the ointment finished her aggressive words, a gentle female voice suddenly came.

Hearing the gentle female voice, the women surrounding us turned around, knelt on one knee and saluted, "Greetings to the Holy Lady."

Everyone around us knelt down, and Xiao Siqing and I stood there, suddenly standing out from the crowd.

I followed the sound and looked over. I saw a two-story building made of bamboo. A young woman who looked to be in her thirties was standing in the corridor on the second floor. She was wearing a goose-yellow gown, and her long black hair was neatly tied behind her head. There was also a leaf from an unknown tree stuck in her braided hair.

The young woman is very beautiful. She is a lady, gentle and virtuous. She has a slight smile on her face, which makes her feel gentle and easy to get close to.

This young woman is the saint of Nuzhai. The most obvious difference between her and the women here is probably her age.

The saint's eyes fell lightly on my injured palm, and then she raised her eyebrows in surprise, "This hand was actually injured by thunder. Female donor, have you offended the law of heaven?"

After asking, before I could answer, the saint shook her head again, "Probably not. After all, if you had offended heaven, you would have been dead long ago. How could you come here to ask for help from me? Tell me, how did you get this hand injured?"

As she spoke, the saint waved her hand.

The kneeling women stood up and stepped aside to make way for Xiao Siqing and me.

At this time, Xiaocui, who had been standing silently, reminded me, "The Holy Lady has agreed to see you, come over quickly."

I turned my head and thanked Xiao Cui, then walked over with Xiao Siqing and boarded the bamboo building where the saint was.

When walking up the stairs, the saint had already returned to her room. Xiao Siqing and I also walked into the house.

The furnishings inside the bamboo house can only be described as simple, because there is only a white blanket spread in the house and nothing else. At this time, the saint was kneeling on the blanket. After looking around the room, Xiao Siqiu and I finally decided to kneel on the floor in front of the saint.

After all, we can't sit down on our knees while the saint and we talk in front of others, making it seem like they are begging us.

After kneeling down, I handed my injured hand to the saint.

"Lord Saint, my hand was injured by Tripterygium vine," I said truthfully, "I once had a branch of Tripterygium vine in my body. When I got close to Tripterygium vine, Tripterygium vine mistakenly thought I was stealing and controlling its branch. The monster then attacked me. The branch of the Thunder God Vine was pulled out from my palm, and my palm was corroded into this."

My hand didn't hurt, but it looked very scary. A big hole was carved into the palm of my hand, exposing the white bones in the middle.

After listening to my words, the saint didn't ask me why I had branches of Tripterygium vine, nor why I could get close to the Tree of Life. She didn't seem to care what I said.

She pinched my fingertips, took my hand, lowered her head to observe for a moment, and then said to me, "I can treat your injury, but I am short of a herbal medicine. That herbal medicine plus my acupuncture will protect your health." Your hand is intact.

If the two are less than the same, your hand will either be useless and cannot be used normally. Or it can be used normally, but looks ugly. Female donor, you choose. "

Before I could speak, Xiao Siqin hurriedly said, "Holy Lady, our selection is as good as before. Please tell us where to find that herb?"

When the saint talked about herbal medicine and acupuncture, I thought of the two large statues at the entrance of the valley. The female statue holds a needle and the male statue holds a medicinal herb.

If I guessed correctly, the herbal medicine the saint mentioned should be in the male village.

Sure enough, the next second, I heard Saint Rourou say, "The herbal medicine is in Nanzhai, and its name is Caotouwu."

Xiao Siqing nodded, "Thank you, Lady Saint, for your advice. I'll take note of it and I'll go get medicine for my mother right away."

"Little girl," the saint looked at Xiao Siqin and said, "Things are not as simple as you think. The men in the men's village have no mercy. They are barbaric, selfish, and cold-blooded. You need to beg for this medicine." You can’t ask for it.”

If you can't get it by begging, you can only use some other means.

Xiao Siqing heard the hint in the saint's words and was slightly stunned.

I said, "Lord Saint, my palm needs your acupuncture and the herbs from the male village. That means it needs to be treated by both villages together before my palm can be healed. Under the mountain village, we actually also met the men from the male village. Man, please forgive me for asking a rude question. Is there any misunderstanding between your village and the male village? Is there any enmity between your two villages? "

Hearing my question, the saint's eyes narrowed slightly. Her expression did not change, and there was still a slight smile on her face, but the light in her eyes became colder.

"Female donor, there is no misunderstanding. Those men are just a group of cold-blooded beasts who will not save anyone." After saying this, the saint fell into silence, as she seemed to recall something.

The fact that the female village hates the male village so much must have happened before. Seeing the change in the saint's expression, I felt that I was right. It's just that I came here to ask others to help me. They didn't want to say more, so I couldn't ask further questions.

Just when I was about to give up asking, the saint suddenly said, "Female donor, you need to treat your injury. You must go to Nanzhai on this trip. Knowing Nanzhai as a person, it will be helpful to you during this trip." If it helps, I will now tell you all the good things that Nan Zhai has done over the years!"

I was shocked, this was an unexpected surprise.

"Please give me some advice, Holy Lady." I said hurriedly.

The saint said, "Back then, there was only one village in Yaowang Valley, and there was no distinction between male and female villages..." (End of Chapter)
