Chapter 941: Free Medicine (4)
Shen Miao frowned slightly. The Taoist priest casually picked up a willow branch and continued to walk forward, humming an unknown tune like a child.
She had no choice but to keep up.
The Taoist priest walked for a long time, afraid of delaying things. Luo Tan did not dare to complain, and Shen Miao would not say anything. He did not know what time it was, but he felt that the sky was gradually getting darker, and when the sun was a little weak, the Taoist priest suddenly stopped and said, "We're here."
Luo Tan and Shen Miao both took two steps forward, only to see a huge valley appearing before them. The valley was filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants. It was midsummer in June, and the flowers and plants were in full bloom. In addition, the setting sun cast golden clouds and colorful lights all over the ground. It seemed as if they had come to a fairyland on earth, and they actually felt a trance and unreal feeling.
"It's so beautiful here!" Luo Tan exclaimed.
Taoist Chi Yan looked at Shen Miao: "Madam, have you discovered anything?"
Shen Miao only felt a faint medicinal fragrance in the air. Then she looked at the flowers and plants scattered all over the ground. Although they were brightly colored, they did not seem much like ordinary flowers and plants. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it medicinal herbs?"
Taoist Chi Yan laughed heartily: "That's right. Although I can't save your husband or change his fate, my master has a medicinal valley with a herb that can cure all poisons. This herb can save your husband's life."
Shen Miao had not told Taoist Chi Yan about Xie Jing Xing's injuries, but Taoist Chi Yan immediately revealed that Xie Jing Xing was poisoned. Luo Tan looked at the strange Taoist priest with admiration, but Shen Miao disagreed. She had long expected that this strange Taoist priest had some real skills. Now it was not surprising.
She said, "I also beg the Taoist priest to give me the medicinal herb that can cure all poisons and save my husband's life."
Chi Yan smiled. "This herb was left behind by my great-great-great-grandmaster. It has been kept in this medicine valley ever since. It's the only one left in the world. If ordinary people eat it, it will prolong their lives. If someone is poisoned, it will naturally cure their illness... This herb is so precious, how could I give it to you for nothing?"
"You are a compassionate Taoist priest," Luo Tan said. "If you want gold or silver, my cousin can afford it. What do you want in exchange?"
Shen Miao also said, “As long as I can, I will definitely do it for the Taoist priest.”
"What if I want Madam to exchange her life for it?" Chi Yan said cunningly.
Shen Miao was stunned. Before she could speak, Luo Tan said, “You are too much of a bully. How can you make such conditions?”
Chi Yan waved his hand: "Monks are compassionate. I am a Taoist priest, so naturally I would not do such things as murder and arson. It was just a joke. I have a question for my wife." He looked at Shen Miao who was stunned for a moment: "My wife, can you help me solve this problem?"
Shen Miao finally came back to her senses, and was filled with astonishment. The moment Chi Yan asked her if she was willing to exchange her life for his, a thought flashed through her mind: she was willing.
But how could this be possible? She still had Shen Qiu, Shen Xin, and Luo Xueyan behind her, a large family of relatives, and now she was actually willing to give up her life for Xie Jingxing. Shen Miao suddenly felt a little scared.
Investing too much emotion will only lead to deeper hurt in the future. Everything in her previous life is a living example. She can try to love again, but she dare not love too deeply and cannot afford the risk.
"Little cousin?" Luo Tan shook her arm.
Shen Miao calmed down and looked at the Taoist priest: "Master, please speak."
"Look," the Taoist priest squatted down and pointed at a small flower in the grass. "This is red sleeve grass, a magical medicine that can cure coughs. But it hasn't bloomed much these days. Madam, what do you think is the reason?"
