The last three kingdoms

Chapter 22 The Effects of Panax notoginseng

"Why panic?" Liu Yin asked immediately.

Xue Wu's face was blushing, like drinking fine wine, she was so ashamed that she almost slipped in without finding a crack in the ground.But she still looked back, pointed at a big rock behind her, and said with a little fear: "Over there...there is a pair of eyes watching...it's scary..."

"Eyes?" Liu Yin was very puzzled, this cave is not big, when he came in just now, Liu Yin also checked roughly to make sure there were no people or other beasts, Xue Wu said that there was a pair of eyes peeping behind the stone, how is this possible?The stone was so small that no one could hide behind it.

Liu Yin stepped forward to take a closer look, but saw a monkey popping out from behind the stone, he couldn't help laughing, and cursed secretly: "So it's a monkey, but this monkey is a bit lecherous, and even peeked at the beauty changing clothes."

This monkey is not big, and its whole body is covered with golden fur. Under the reflection of the fire, it exudes a soft golden light. This monkey should be the famous Sichuan golden monkey. It is a rare animal called a national treasure like the giant panda in later generations. .But apparently the monkey was injured, limping on its right leg, and it could be seen that blood had soaked its entire right leg.

The golden snub-nosed monkey is a primate, and its IQ is only a little lower than that of humans. This monkey was supposed to inhabit a tree, but probably because of an injury, it hid in a cave. When it saw someone coming in, it quietly hid on a rock Behind it, there was no sound, and it didn't run away until Liu Yin approached it.

Liu Yin knew that the golden snub-nosed monkey lived in groups and lived with the group. This monkey was injured and left alone. Obviously, an unusual story happened to it.Liu Yin smiled and waved: "Come here, don't be afraid, I have no malicious intentions."

Perhaps Liu Yin's kind expression played a role. The golden monkey did not run away in a hurry, but stopped not far away. In front of Liu Yin, he looked at Liu Yin curiously.

"What a beautiful monkey——" Xue Wu had already put on her clothes, with a curious look on her face, she couldn't help reaching out to stroke its golden and soft fur.

The golden monkey obviously saw that they had no malicious intentions, so he accepted Xue Wu's caress with peace of mind, looking very contented.

"Ah! It's injured—" Xue Wu exclaimed in a low voice, only then did she see its injured right leg, and bent down to check the injury for the little monkey.

Pulling apart the golden hair, you can clearly see that the wound on the monkey's leg is quite large. It should be a tear caused by some carnivorous animal such as a wolf or a leopard. It can escape under the jaws of a beast. This golden monkey looks It's also very lucky to come.

But this wound needs to be treated, otherwise, if it becomes infected, it may be fatal.Xue Wu frowned slightly, she didn't bring the current medicine with her, she looked around, suddenly her eyes lit up, she went straight to the side of the cave entrance, and dug up an unremarkable plant by its roots.

"Is this herbal medicine?" Liu Yin asked curiously while putting on his clothes.

Xue Wu smiled slightly and said: "This is Panax notoginseng, have you seen it? There are seven leaves on it, three on the left and four on the right, hence the name Panax notoginseng. Don't underestimate it, it can dispel blood stasis, stop bleeding, eliminate The effect of relieving swelling and pain is the first choice of essential herbs for making superior Jinchuang medicine. It is a pity that this Panax notoginseng is only a year old, if it is three to five years old, it is the best medicine."

It was only then that Liu Yin remembered that she was originally a herb picker, and identifying herbs was her specialty, and she was a layman in this area.

"Why did Miss Snow Dance determine that it is an annual herb?"

Xue Wu smiled and said: "I don't know, my lord, this Panax notoginseng grows a petiole every year, and each petiole has seven leaves. To judge how old it is, you only need to look at the number of petioles. The longer the year, the more precious it is. But even though it is a year, it is good to stop bleeding and heal wounds.”

Saying that, Xue Wu put the root of Panax notoginseng into her mouth, chewed it finely, carefully applied it on the monkey's wound, pulled off a piece of cloth, and carefully bandaged it properly.

Liu Yin stood aside silently watching, Xue Wu's slender fingers were so nimble and skillful, and her expression was so dedicated, as if she was carefully caring for something precious, Liu Yin's heart surged inexplicably A touch of touch, what a girl, pure, kind, fraternal, she is doing all these quietly, so peaceful, it is a kind of deep beauty, does not seem to have any fireworks.

The little monkey squeaked excitedly, as if expressing his gratitude to Xue Wu. Xue Wu smiled and asked him to calm down and heal his wounds. There, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.

"Little Naughty, let's call you Xiao Tao, you are so naughty." Xue Wu laughed, and the little monkey had already jumped onto her shoulder, obviously it had accepted the name with pleasure.

With Xiao Tao's presence, the awkward atmosphere between Liu Yin and Xue Wu disappeared. Xiao Tao's "squeak" and Xue Wu's silver-bell-like laughter echoed in the cave all the time.

After tossing until late at night, Liu Yin finally became sleepy, and fell asleep leaning against a stone.

He had a bizarre dream, which was long and tiring, and then he woke up - he woke up under the constant disturbance of hunger and Xiao Tao.

The strong sunlight shone in from the entrance of the cave, revealing every detail, but there was no one else in the cave except him and the little monkey.

She left, just like this quietly.

There is a faint fragrance in the air, which proves that she once existed, not just a dream of Liu Yin.
