765 Mighty Ah Dou, Husband and Wife Meet (1)
Yu Wan did not like to hide it. She had doubts in her heart, so she mustered her courage and said, “Can I ask where you’re from?”
The woman did not ask Yu Wan “why are you asking about this”. Instead, she shook her head and said, “I don’t know where I’m from either. Ever since I can remember, I’ve followed Master into the pugilistic world. After that, she pa.s.sed away and I happened to come here. I felt that the scenery here was not bad, so I stayed here.”
Yu Wan nodded as if she had an epiphany. “From what you said, you don’t seem to be the first person to stay here.”
The woman’s hand that was pouring tea paused. “Yes, there were already people here before me, but they left later on, leaving me alone until I picked up those children.”
!!
“To be honest, I have a friend who once encountered a female divine doctor nearby.” Actually, she was Manor Master Ji’s friend. In order to highlight the main point, Yu Wan said, “He was bitten by a poisonous snake and stopped breathing. It was that female divine doctor who saved him. I wonder… if it’s Granny?”
The woman shook her head. “I don’t know if it’s me or not. All these years, I’ve entered the mountains to pick herbs and occasionally encountered the situation you mentioned. I’ll save everything I can.”
She was really an otherworldly expert. She didn’t even take the favor of saving her life to heart. Yu Wan could tell that she didn’t like to talk about her past, so she didn’t continue asking. Instead, she said bluntly, “Does Granny’s miracle medicine work on any dead person?”
“No, only those who fake their deaths work,” the woman said.
“Fake their deaths?” Yu Wan was slightly stunned.
The woman said, “Yes, there’s no pulse, but his soul hasn’t dissipated.”
Yu Wan touched her chin. In medical terms, a person whose heart had stopped beating?
The woman looked at Yu Wan. “Are you so concerned about this because there’s someone else you want to treat?”
Yu Wan did not deny it. “To be honest, my husband has been poisoned and needs a few very rare herbs. Two of them have been found, but the blood of the Saintess and the sorcerer’s tears are still a mystery.”
“Saintess blood?” The woman’s eyes moved slightly as she looked at Yu Wan strangely. “You said you’re looking for the Saintess’ blood?”
The woman’s eyes were filled with unconcealed surprise. The Saintess had long disappeared. Anyone who heard that she was looking for the Saintess’ blood would have the same expression. Yu Wan did not take it to heart and nodded. “That’s right. When I heard about the G.o.ddess of the Ghost Domain, I once suspected that the other party was the legendary descendant of the Saintess.”
The woman muttered, “Saintess’ blood… Why didn’t I think of that?”
“What didn’t you think of?” Yu Wan asked in confusion.
The woman shook her head. “No wonder you asked me about my background. So you treat me as the descendant of the Saintess.”
“Granny, are you?” Yu Wan asked.
The woman was silent. Just as Yu Wan thought that she was going to say that she didn’t know, the woman said, “Do you know what the descendants of the Saintess are like?”
This time, it was Yu Wan’s turn to say that she didn’t know. “We once found a handwritten letter about the Saintess and the sorcerer. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the time to read it. Granny knows, right?”
Yu Wan’s intuition told her that the woman in front of her must have heard about the Saintess. Otherwise, she would not have asked such a question.
Just as Yu Wan felt that the woman was about to say something, the nine-year-old leader of the children rushed in with a bag of fruits. “Granny! Granny! Eat the fruits! We just picked them!”
The woman nodded. “Why did you go pick fruits again? Didn’t I tell you not to go so far away?”
The child said, “Don’t worry, Granny. We didn’t cross the river! We won’t fall into the water!”
The children pestered the woman and talked a lot more. Yu Wan gradually felt a little sleepy and could not help but cover her face and yawn. Ever since she was pregnant, she had slept more at night and slept for two to four hours during the day.
“Granny, look, she’s asleep!” The child suddenly pointed at Yu Wan, who was sleeping soundly on the small table.
The woman did not look surprised at all. She nodded at the children and said, “Clean up the house.”
“Okay!” The children obediently left.
The woman carried Yu Wan into a room for her to rest.
Yu Wan lay on the soft bed.
She knew that women would be sleepy during pregnancy, but this time, she seemed to have slept a little deeper than usual. When she woke up again, it was already afternoon. The weather was a little stuffy and hot. She did not know if it was because of this, but her head was a little dizzy.
She tried to lift her arm, but she realized that she was sore and weak. In a daze, she opened her eyes and saw a red figure in her blurry vision.
