Chapter 80 – Lady Of Healing

Yin Zi scowled and tugged my tail, dragging me behind a large tree, he savagely grabbed my ears and whispered, “How come you brought an extra person? What did she come here for?”

I hurriedly slapped away his hands, rubbed my tail, and then dejectedly said, “Wawa’s always wanted to go and play in the mortal realm, so I brought her along.”

“You’re just looking for trouble when there isn’t any!” Yin Zi was hopping with anger, he raised his index finger and poked me in the head while shouting, “There’s simply no cure for your stupidity!”

I didn’t even know what he was angry about, anyways, I should just keep my head down for now. He scolded me for quite a while, and when his anger was more or less subsided, he reached his hands over my bell, touched it several times, and then scattered some unknown powder over it, and slowly said, “Since it’s come to this and we can’t turn back now, we will just have to bring her along with us.”

Wawa remained still and standing for a long time, she felt a little awkward to ask, “Why is this Jiejie so upset, is it because I did something wrong again?”

“Take a good look, call me Jiejie one more time and I’ll drop you down from mid-air!” Yin Zi swept a glance towards Wawa, and then turned into the form of a crow. He expanded his wings and with a voice full of grievances, he called out to me, “Hurry up and get on.”

Wawa suddenly came to a realization and repeatedly apologized, “I’m sorry, Yin Zi Meimei*, I didn’t mean to call you old…..”

*Meimei = Younger sister or a female that is younger than you
Jiejie = Older sister or a female that is older than you

The white crow staggered onto the ground, almost tripping. I laughed so hard, I held my stomach calling out ‘Meow woo~’.

Yin Zi’s white wings soared in the air, pa.s.sing through cloud after cloud. To fly from the ground up to a high alt.i.tude was a bit arduous, but from there on, the journey was much easier. Yin Zi took advantage of the silence to slowly begin his descent.

While on his back, Wawa had finally understood the meaning of his words. She crawled and stopped by his neck and repeatedly apologized to him. From Yin Zi Gege to Lord Yin Zi, she constantly thought of ways to make hime feel better, but she didn’t receive any signs of him forgiving her. Her eyes turned red as she became more anxious and then turned to me for a.s.sistance.

As I was ready to crawl over to speak to him, Yin Zi immediately opened his mouth and said, “Don’t speak anymore, I’m not in the mood to toss her off right now…..”

Wawa immediately expressed that she would redeem herself, and not make the same mistakes again.

Very soon, we arrived in the mortal realm. What we discovered was that Wawa was actually very good in the art of medicine and healing. She even knew basic healing spells, which worked miraculously on common cuts and simple bruises.

Yin Zi and I were pleased to observe the scenes of healing and regeneration performed by Wawa, as it brough salvation and happiness to all the animals and plants.

All this happening occurred at around lunch time. I had wanted to eat barbecue so I went to catch a rabbit for Yin Zi to roast, consequently, when Wawa’s eyes caught the sight of the rabbit, she suddenly teared up and nagged, “What a poor little rabbit, so unfortunate, Jiejie will treat your wounds so you can return to the forest. Don’t let people catch and eat you.”

Thus, after our rabbit was treated, it ran away.

Seeing her pity the rabbit made me a bit unwilling to make my move on it anymore, so I went and caught a mountain chicken back to roast. But unexpectedly, this time, Wawa had also gotten teary eyed and when I was looking, she released the mountain chicken. In addition, she lectured, “Putting down the butcher knife allows one to achieve Buddhahood.”

Join Buddhahood? Doesn’t that mean I have to become vegetarian!!

I then went and brought back a wolf, thinking that eating a fierce and scary looking creature would be alright, but seeing the wound on the wolf’s leg, she went to heal it. She then hugged my thigh and beseeched, “The eyes of this wolf is so pitiful. It’s like it has a sense of individuality, it probably also has a wife and children at home, killing him would be committing a sin!”

Me not having food to eat would be a bigger sin!!!

In the end, I caught a mouse and brought it back to see what Wawa would do, but the mouse was also released, and she said that its eyes were too cute and seducing. She couldn’t just let it be ma.s.sacred.

I became extremely restless…..finally, Yin Zi could not help but ask, “Normally in the heavenly realm, Miao Miao eats fish, but how come you don’t release it back into the wild?”

Wawa unexpectedly replied, “Fish is covered entirely by scales, it looks so strange and horrid…..”

We were speechless. Therefore, using dried food and fish, we solved the problem with ‘meat’. Yin Zi advised that we should go into a human town to grab some clothes and supplies. The result of this was numerous chickens flying about and heaps of dogs running about, as well as the countless animals and beasts that were released in the process. Wawa was like a little child going out for the first time, she kept dragging me away to buy snacks and small toys. Yin Zi just quietly followed us from behind, grabbing our bags and disregarding our enthusiasm and spirit.

This kind of desperate spending and showing off of one’s wealth brought about many people who wanted to bully and steal from two girls, but with a few kicks and punches, they were all beaten away by me. And the people that wanted to hara.s.s us three ladies were all mercilessly beaten and broken a few bones by Yin Zi.

After the preparations were ready, I voiced that we should visit Bull Devil’s place, but Yin Zi said it wouldn’t be a good idea. When I told him that Bi Qingshen Jun has presents for Bull Devil, he seemingly stared at me stunned, looking at me like a fool. After a long time, he said, “This time, coming here to the mortal realm, he knows about it?”

I nodded my head.

“You’ve told him about everything?” Yin Zi asked again.

I continued to honestly nod, “He said to go back before dark, so we need to hurry and do whatever business we have here.”

“Wait a second,” Yin Zi appeared to be extremely worried about something, he paced in a circled a few times, and then grabbed me and asked, “Could it be that you think that I brought you out to play for day?”

“Is that not it? Then is it to play for two days?” I widely stared at him.

“You idiot! Why do you listen to him so much! Have you been accustomed and become like those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds of the heavenly realm?” I didn’t know why, but Yin Zi suddenly became angry. After a moment of thought, he suddenly laughed, “No worry, I will definitely turn all the errors into certainty, and like you said, we should first head to Huoyan Mountain.”

I did not understand the meaning of his words, just that hearing them made my heart feel a hint of unease.

Yin Zi…..would not lie to me, he definitely won’t.

I transferred all of the negative thoughts to the back of my brain, dragged the Wawa who had been playing with a dog that she had said was cute back onto the white crow’s back, and then left for Huoyan Mountain in the West. In the past, Huoyan Mountain’s name originated from its abundance of sand and its relatively hot and humid temperatures, but now, Houyan Mountain is full of blazing hot flames. Before we had even gotten close to the foot of the mountain, we were blasted head-on by an intense heat wave, the ground was like a steamer. Compared to the picturesque mountain in the past, with the sight of grape vines scattered about, this was a shocking change.

What in the world happened here? I was a little surprised, to the Wawa who preferred the cold and disliked the heat, she became almost breathless upon taking the impact of the heat wave. Yin Zi explained, “One of High G.o.d Old Lao’s heavenly pills mysteriously collapsed, and a fragment of it descended here, they didn’t send anyone to get rid of the problem, that’s why it looks like it does now.”

Just then, from the heart of the mountain came an array of subtle crying, as well as the laughter of a group of belittling children. Among them, there was a particularly sharp laugh, “You don’t even know how to speak a couple of words, all you know how to do is be a crying shrew! If you have the courage then go look for my mother and complain to her, you don’t even have the guts to call for help! This little lord here is waiting for you to cry even louder! Let’s see if there’s anyone who will come and save you!”

Then came another wave of laughter, this type lively environment really aroused my curiosity, thus I dragged Yin Zi and them along to where the sounds originated.
