I jumped up suddenly, rushed to the master, exerted all my strength, and slapped the master's right hand holding the tea cup.
With a crisp "snap", the tea cup, which traced the green bamboo after the rain, fell on the shiny bluestone floor of Yinyi Zhai.
I watched the clear tea slowly soaking into the bluestone bricks, and two crumpled tea leaves lying on the ground, like two dying insects.
In Master's eyes, am I just a dying insect?
When I first came to Taixi Mountain, it was Chunxian who helped me bathe.
Years later, the master told the Ye family that someone would come to take Chunxian home because Taixi Mountain was full of men and it would be inconvenient for Chunxian to stay in the mountain.
I remember that when Chunxian found out about this, she cried so much that she could not help but cry.
I was quite surprised when I saw it——
Unexpectedly, Chunxian is such a loyal and courageous girl!
Thinking about it now, Chunxian may not be sad about the separation from me. It is most likely that she cried with joy when she knew that she could finally leave this ghost place of Taixi Mountain!
After Chun Xian leaves, I will have to take care of the daily bathing myself.
After dinner every day, the tenth senior brother would move the bathtub into my embroidery room, fill it with bath water, and close the doors and windows before leaving.
After I finished bathing, Senior Brother Ten took the tub out again.
Maybe he knew that I didn't like to tie my hair after bathing. When the tenth senior brother came into the room to move the bucket, he always lowered his head and never glanced at me.
He is very polite and I am very satisfied.
It was said to be a bath, but in fact the bath I took was a medicinal bath, and it was a medicinal bath that could save my life.
Master said, the poison in me is really strange. It is made from seven or forty-nine kinds of poisons. If you don't know the order in which the poisons are added during the refining, you will not be able to make the antidote.
Moreover, I have been poisoned for a long time, and the poisonous gas has already penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Even if I take the antidote now, it will not help. The only way is to guide the poisonous gas from the bone marrow to the skin first, and then make plans.
I thought about it carefully, and it seems that my life can only be saved if I find a way to slowly induce the poisonous gas, and at the same time find the poisoner and ask him how to make the antidote.
However, I, a young lady, can let people use such a clever poison. Hum, it seems that I, Ye Rongguo, am really different and extraordinary!
The bath I took had the effect of drawing away the poisonous gas.
A total of eighteen herbs are needed to make this medicinal bath.
Sixteen of these flavors can be found in my medicine store in Taixi Mountain, and my father and elder brother also send them to me at regular intervals.
The remaining two flavors are really troublesome, one is fragrant grass and the other is bitter leaf asarum.
It's hard to find fragrant velvet grass, but in our Taixi Mountain, there is a large patch of it growing densely on the back hillside.
The trouble is, Master has issued an order that no one is allowed to pick fragrant grass for me.
Therefore, every first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, I had to drag a bamboo basket and support my sick and disabled body to the back mountain to collect medicine.
This other flavor is bitter leaf asarum.
Nowadays, there are only three Asarum strains left in the world, and for my medicinal bath, no more, no less, I need three strains.
Years ago, when my father and elder brother sent me to the mountains, they brought with them the only bitter-leaf asarum plant in my Ye family's collection.
There is another plant that the master ordered his tenth senior brother to rummage out of the medicine store a long time ago.
And this last one was said to be in the Xu family in Jinling, but Mr. Xu passed away years ago, and the last Asarum plant was nowhere to be found.
Master said that my poisonous energy needs to be channeled every day, and it will take at least three or two years before it can all rise to the skin.
Doesn’t this mean that I have to soak in this medicinal bath every day for the past two or three years? Wouldn’t my smooth and delicate skin become wrinkled by soaking in this way?
The master patted my head gently and said kindly: "Xiao Twelve, with your current body, I have devoted half my life's medical skills to my master, but I can protect you for at least three more years. If I don't need to take a medicinal bath now, I will guide you first."
Even if you can refine an antidote to the poisonous gas, you will still be unable to cure it as a teacher."
What does Master mean to say that if the poisonous gas cannot be induced and the antidote cannot be found, I will only have three years of good life left?
It’s really funny to think that I, Ye Rong, have lived unscrupulously for fourteen years, and since then I have to count my remaining days on my fingers every day! I jumped up suddenly, rushed to the master, and slapped him with all my strength.
The right hand holding the tea cup towards Master.
