"Dad, Mom, I'm back!" He Huaixiu shouted happily at the top of his voice.
As soon as she entered the door, a golden deer looked up at her with a puzzled look on its face, as if asking, "Who are you? Did you come to the wrong door?"
He Huaixiu's grinning mouth retracted in an instant.
He Shoushan and Zhao Hongying thought they had misheard, but when they looked outside, they saw that it was indeed He Huaixiu who had returned.
Zhao Hongying ran out angrily and excitedly, "You damn girl, you finally knew to go home!"
He Huaixiu supported her and said, "Mom, I'm back, don't be angry. What is this?" He Huaixiu asked, pointing at the golden deer.
The golden deer proudly walked past her and headed for the vegetable patch on the other side. He Huaixiu was anxious to stop it, "Hey, hey, hey, you can't eat that, it's for humans!"
Zhao Hongying held her back and said, "Oh, the little deer is very smart. It won't eat the vegetables. Don't worry about it!"
He Huaixiu was puzzled. "What on earth is going on?"
Zhao Hongying rolled her eyes at her. "I told you to go out into the wild and stay away from home, so you don't know anything, do you?" She then pulled her into the house and explained, "This is a golden deer your sister-in-law found in Lvjiao Village. She said it's exactly the same one she gave birth to when she gave birth."
He Huaixiu heard this and carefully examined the golden deer again. "Really? It does look quite smart."
When the golden deer heard He Huaixiu praising him, it raised its head proudly.
"Okay, put your things down, have a good rest, and then tell your mother what happened to you recently." He Shoushan silently took He Huaixiu's bag into the house. Zhao Hongying patted the dust off He Huaixiu's body and brought out the hot food in the pot.
After dinner, He Huaixiu talked with the two people. He was tired from traveling for the past few days, so he went into the house to rest.
…
Not long after Yi Yami lay down, she fell into a deep sleep. In her dream, she saw the golden deer. Yi Yami squatted down and gently stroked its head. "Little deer, why are you here?"
As soon as Yi Yami finished speaking, Jin Lu said, "Mi girl, I am your ancestor."
Yi Yami was shocked when he said this. She looked at him with wide eyes, "Grandfather? How did you become like this?"
"Hey, stop talking. Didn't I tell you last time that I was going to recuperate? I was originally staying well, but was attacked by an evil spirit. That guy had no martial ethics, and then I was seriously injured, so I had to turn into a deer. Coincidentally, the place where I fell was just behind the mountain of your house, and I met your aunt who was there to sweep the snow. When your aunt gave birth to that girl, I predicted that she would be in trouble. This person had been kind to me before, so it was a repayment. It was fate that we were destined to each other. I didn't expect that the blessings I had sown would eventually reflect on me." The golden deer recalled and sighed as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Yi Yami quietly stroked the golden deer's fur, which was quite slippery. "Then, old ancestor, you are injured like this now. What can I do to help you?"
"I am seriously injured now and can only survive in the form of a deer. I need some medicinal herbs. I see that your business empire is expanding little by little. When you become successful, there will definitely be shops everywhere, and it will be extremely convenient to find anything. So I am not in a hurry. Just treat these few years as my visit to the human world to experience and have fun. When I was in heaven before, every day seemed very long. A day there is as long as a year on earth, so the length is understandable." The golden deer cried softly.
"Yeah, okay, as long as you have an idea in your mind, then which herbs do you need?" Yiyami asked.
The Golden Deer thought carefully, as if thinking. "I think it probably requires the golden bead in the mouth of the Golden House Toad, the heartwood of the thousand-year-old tree demon, the ten-thousand-year-old ice in the deep sea, the fire phoenix feathers on the sacred mountain, the mudless lotus in the black swamp, and the last medicine, but I can't remember it at the moment."
Upon hearing this, Yi Yami frowned more and more, "Grandfather, I doubt I can get the medicinal herbs you mentioned."
Jin Lu nudged her with his head. "Hey, don't underestimate yourself. How did you lose before you even started? Just give it a try. By the time your business expands, you'll know more people. Wouldn't it be easy for you to do anything then?"
Hearing this, Yi Yami sighed, "Don't worry, I will do my best. I won't let you be a deer forever."
"Yes, I believe you, but you have to be quick. Although I can talk to you occasionally, my divine power is not enough to support me speaking too frequently, and others can't hear me." Elder Yi reminded her.
"Okay, I understand, ancestor. Now that you know all these medicinal herbs, do you know where to find them?" Yi Yami was also anxious. She hoped more than anyone else to cure ancestor Yi as soon as possible. To her, ancestor Yi was like a grandfather.
"After I was injured by that evil spirit, my divine power was even more seriously damaged. It's good enough that I can remember these. I remember which book on my bookshelf has the record of this map. You can take a look at it when you have time. Reading is beneficial and you will always gain something. As for me, I will try my best to hold on until you come to save me." Jin Lu felt a little guilty as he spoke, so his voice became smaller and smaller.
Yi Yami thought his injury was really serious and asked worriedly, "Grandfather, are you really okay? If I can't get it back in time, will you die?"
Hearing this, Jinlu wanted to say no, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "Yes, everyone will die."
"Ah? But you are not a human!" Yiyami said anxiously.
Jin Lu felt strange when he heard that, but he felt comforted when he saw her so anxious. "Although I am a god, there will be a day when my divine power is exhausted. If no one in the world remembers me, and if there is no incense to worship me, any god will easily disappear. Our existence is closely related to the world. If you remember me, I exist. If you don't remember me, I will no longer exist." These words were spoken sincerely. I guess Patriarch Yi also felt that not many people remembered him anymore.
