"Amitabha.
Xuanlang, allow me to be willful once more."
Unlike the time in the palace, the environment here was simple and noisy.
Sheng Xiyan sat in the chair performing the surgery, her legs shaking from nervousness and fatigue.
Hua Xia and Mei Xiang each held one of her legs. Their eyes were red, but they didn't dare to cry out loud.
Judge Wang was handing over tools, his hands shaking a little.
"Don't panic."
Sheng Xiyan kept reminding herself to bite her tongue to stay awake.
The hand holding the scalpel was as steady as holding incense before the Buddha, but the cold sweat on the forehead soaked the broken hair.
"Scorch the hilt for another three breaths."
As the blade cut through the purple belly, the sound of nuns chanting could be heard outside.
The Medicine Master Sutra penetrated the wind and sand, causing ripples to appear in the hemp soup in the medicine bottle.
Wow--

The mother's cold hands touched the wrinkled little face.

The refugees made way for her, and someone prayed softly, "Buddha bless Madam Sheng, please be safe..."
The wind and sand are still raging, but outside the Hanyu Temple, the fire of hope is ignited by the arrival of a new life.
The refugees gathered together and whispered, "When the epidemic is over, we will all start over like this child..."
In the tile courtyard, Sheng Xiyan lay quietly on the bed, her hand gently resting on her lower abdomen. Her face was pale, but she had a peaceful smile.
She was wearing the sable fur cloak that Xuan Ling had sent her this morning, which smelled of agarwood, as if it was comforting her and the baby in her belly.
