I saw some little people holding colorful umbrellas, like elves, jumping around in front of my eyes. They were so cute.
When the water temperature started to cool down, my discomfort gradually disappeared, and the hallucinations before my eyes disappeared.
When I came out of the potion, I felt a lot more relaxed. It felt like I hadn't slept for several days and suddenly slept for an eternity.
After putting on my clothes, I stretched out and felt instantly refreshed.
What kind of magical potion is this?
When I walked out of the house, I only saw Wu Nanxing sitting alone in the main room, with a bowl of dark soup beside her.
Seeing me coming out, she immediately smiled at me and said, "Are you done?"
"Well, where is Mr. Wu?"
"Sleep, dad asked me to drink this for you." As she said that, she picked up the dark soup next to her and handed it to me.
"What is this?" I asked with confusion on my face.
"I don't know what the potion is, but my dad asked me to make you drink it."
Since Mr. Wu asked me to drink it, I had no choice but to drink it.
I took it and smelled it. There was no smell, but it was a bit hard to swallow!
Because the color looks like the sewage in the sewer, dark and a little sticky.
I immediately retched, even though there was no smell.
"Is this medicine hard to drink?" I then asked Wu Nanxing again.
She shook her head and said, "I don't know, you give it a try."
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and drink it. I took a small sip first. The taste was slightly bitter and a little sweet, but I couldn't tell what it tasted like.
It's not that it tastes bad, it just looks a little scary.
After I finished drinking in a few sips, I handed the bowl to Wu Nanxing and asked her, "Is that okay?"
"Well, how did you feel when you took that potion just now?"
"It's pretty good. I'm feeling better overall. Besides, I had hallucinations just now."
Wu Nanxing smiled and said: "That's normal. If you stay there for a few more days, you may even faint."
"Ah!? Is this... so serious? What if I faint in that potion and drown?"
Wu Nanxing smiled again and said, "No, my dad will come to see you. He also came in just now, didn't you know?"
I really didn't know anyone had come in, because just now I was completely in a hallucination and had no consciousness at all.
But I felt relieved, nodded and said, "It's okay then. Just feel dizzy. I feel quite comfortable."
"Well, then you should go to bed early."
I nodded to her and returned to my room.
Lying on the bed, there was no doubt that I began to miss An Lan again.
She couldn't contact me either, so she must have been very anxious. I even thought about climbing out of the mountain and calling her to say she was safe.
After thinking about it like this, I fell asleep.
The next morning I was woken up by the rooster crowing in the village. I stood up and stretched out. The sun was already shining through the cracks in the window, and the rays of light were like the keys of a piano.
Putting aside other factors, this is really a good place for self-cultivation.
Apart from missing An Lan, I still feel very good now.
After putting on clothes and walking out of the room, I saw Mr. Wu again basking in the sun in the yard, squinting and dozing off.
A pear cat also curled up next to him, and the sun shone on its body, making it warm.
In the morning, the Miao Village looks like a paradise, shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
I walked to Mr. Wu, and after he heard my footsteps, he opened his eyes.
"Mr. Wu, you don't have to go up the mountain to collect medicine today, do you?"
"No need for it today, the medicine collected in the past two days is enough for you for a week."
"That's good, I don't have to do anything this week, right?"
Mr. Wu smiled and said: "Who told you that you don't have to do anything? Are you living and eating in our house for free?"
"Uh...do you want me to give you money?"
"It's no use asking you for money, you have to help my family with things."
"What to do?"
Mr. Wu was silent for a while and said: "After breakfast, you and Nan Xing can go up the mountain to collect firewood!"
"Ah! Going up the mountain again?"
"What? You don't want to? Then go pick the shit, you have to do the same thing, right?"
"Then I'd better go up the mountain!"
Mr. Wu seemed to have a hold on me, smiled, and continued to squint and doze off.
Today's breakfast is noodles, also made by Wu Nanxing. It seems that she is basically the one doing the cooking.
Mrs. Wu gave me the feeling that she was idle most of the time, while her wife was busy with farm work in the fields.
This old fairy-like life is so comfortable!
After eating breakfast, Wu Nanxing and I carried our backpacks and went up the mountain again.
But firewood is not as hard as collecting herbs. To collect herbs, you have to go farther into the mountains, and it is also dangerous.
You can collect firewood from any hilltop, but it is tiring.
After getting along with me for the past few days, I found that she was beginning to be willing to talk to me, and she talked a little more.
While walking on the path in the mountains, we met many villagers in the village, and they all greeted us warmly.
But they were all in Miao, and I couldn't understand what they were saying.
There are also many villagers who collect firewood in the mountains. They rely on the mountains to eat. After all, there is no natural gas here.
Everyone was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to greet me and talk to me, but it was a pity that I couldn't understand what they said.
Wu Nanxing acted as my translator and said to me: "They are asking you where you are from?"
"You tell them I'm from Chongqing."
So Wu Nanxing helped me translate to these enthusiastic villagers, and they asked me another question. Wu Nanxing translated for me again: "They asked you what you are doing here?"
"Just say that I'm here to see your dad for medical treatment."
Wu Nanxing shook his head and said, "You can't say that. My dad is not a doctor. If word gets out, they will all come to my dad for treatment."
"Don't the people in your village know what your father is capable of?" I asked in confusion.
Wu Nanxing shook his head and said, "If you don't know, don't tell me."
This is strange. We outsiders know this, but people in their village don't know about it.
After a moment of silence, I said to Wu Nanxing: "Then just say that I am a distant relative of your family."
Wu Nanxing smiled and then replied to everyone in Miao language.
I also wanted to say hello to these enthusiastic villagers, so I asked Wu Nanxing: "Hello, how do you say hello in Miao language?"
"We are talking about something like this here."
So I learned and put it into practice again, and said to everyone: "This is like this, this is like..."
Everyone also said "such" to me, and then they all laughed in unison.
Smile is the most direct language. No matter where you are from, even if you are from abroad, a smile can let the other person know that you are a good person.
But at this moment, a Miao young man ran up the mountain panting, as if something had happened, and he was very anxious.
He didn't have time to take a breath, so he started talking to everyone in Miao language and making some gestures. It looked like he was really anxious.
I don't know what happened, but judging from his urgent tone and uncoordinated body language, I can tell that something big has happened!
