"Can she come back?" I asked.

Xiuli shook his head. "A body can only hold a soul. If you want her to come back, Xiao Xuan, you need to leave. ”

When I heard this, I was struck like lightning. It turns out that I am really the third party between him and the original owner. It was the appearance of my yin and yang that caused the whereabouts of the original owner's soul to be unknown......

"But looking down, Miss Xuan'er, she should have already entered the underworld and been reincarnated." Xiu Li's way continued.

"Why?"

"Because only souls that are extremely nostalgic for the world will wander the world, and Miss Xuan'er will never stay in this world for a moment after she made up her mind to die. Therefore, the poison of emptiness seems to have a solution, but in fact there is no solution. His words were so frivolous, yet so cruel to me.

I slowly reached out my hand. "Please also ask Master to give me the antidote, how can I know that it won't work if I don't give it a try?"

"Now there is only this antidote left in this world, if Xiao Xuan can't detoxify him, wouldn't it be a waste of this only antidote?"

But...... "Isn't the original owner unable to come back?" But I didn't say the rest of the word.

"Besides, even if Xiao Xuan is willing to give it a try, Kong'er is afraid that he will not agree."

"Why?"

"The reason for this should be imagined by Xiao Xuan."

How would I know?

I was puzzled, but suddenly I thought of Niankong's remarks that he would not touch me before marriage, and I couldn't help but feel depressed: Is the chastity of this body important, or is his own life important?!

I stretched out my hand again and said stubbornly, "Please also ask Master to give me the antidote." I might just be able to figure it out. ”

Take this antidote back to study and study, if you can analyze the composition of the antidote, maybe you can break through the restriction of using women as a medicine and prepare a more direct antidote.

Xiuli had used the Soul Technique to probe my past life, and naturally knew that I knew how to heal, but he still looked at me solemnly.

I added, "If Master can trust me, he will give me the antidote. ”

He hesitated for a moment, but finally put the pillbox in my hand.

I took the pill box in my arms and returned to the garden with a heavy heart.

Sora is still asleep. I lay down beside him, and all kinds of thoughts were racing in my head: it turned out that the original owner had an accident two years earlier, and this body had been stored in the ice and stone room for two years......

Suddenly, I thought of the sharp pain in my private parts when I first woke up. Thinking that the injury must have been caused by the original owner before the accident, maybe the loss was the real reason why the original owner jumped off the cliff, and Niankong probably doesn't know it yet. But this body has been stored in the cave for two years, and the wound has not healed at all. Maybe it has something to do with the separation of the soul?

I smiled helplessly: I, an atheist who had been destined since my mother's womb, was about to change my sex? But with so many bizarre encounters, it's hard not to change.

Looking at the soft sleeping face in front of him, the previous chaotic mood instantly calmed down. His arms wrapped lightly around his waist and closed his eyes. Just take a nap! I'll see him when I wake up......

But what I didn't expect was that when I opened my eyes, it was already the second day, and I was greeted by a pair of innocent and childish eyes.

Why did you sleep until the next day? I didn't even see him. However, I didn't see Ninkong for the next few days. And the culprit was his good master, Xiu Li.

The conversation I had with him that day seemed to remind him that I was a healer, and he was very interested in it. Every day after dinner, he would show up on time and talk to me about medicine, and I couldn't hide from it. But I'm still patient, after all, I'm living here now, eating people with short mouths and soft hands. So I really talked to him about some of the most basic theories of Western medicine.

And Xiuli is also worthy of being a strange person who has glimpsed the world after a thousand years with the help of soul control, and his ability to accept it is surprisingly strong. At first, I only taught it orally, but when I came to the part of surgery, I unconsciously demonstrated it for him, of course, on animals. Later, not only the most basic sutures, but also the repair of nerves and tendons were handed over to him.

It took me a long time to realize, this cultivation is ostensibly asking me for advice, I'm afraid his real purpose is not to let me stay overnight in Niankong, right?

Unexpectedly, he, a well-versed person, still can't get rid of the pedantic thinking of feudal society.

I haven't seen him for five or six days, and I miss him very much, and I think that I will go to see him tonight, no matter how late it is.

In the past five or six days, the night has been devoted to the discourse of meditation, and the day has been spent studying the antidote. However, little progress has been made.

The finished pill is no better than the residue of the medicine, and I can only distinguish five or six flavors of medicinal herbs based on the smell alone, but I don't dare to blindly break it, for fear that it will ruin the only antidote.

Seeing Xiu Li walk away, I let out a sigh of relief: Finally gone.

After returning to the room and waiting for half an hour, he had already rested, so he put on his clothes and went out, intending to secretly go to see Niankong.

When I stepped into the hospital, I suddenly found that the moonlight was exceptionally bright tonight, and my heart suddenly jumped: Tonight is the night of the full moon, why did I forget it!

Suddenly hesitated: should I go to see him, or go to the back mountain to find the moon snake?

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally chose the Moon Snake. After all, it is now approaching the end of autumn, and if you miss this opportunity and wait another month, I am afraid that the snakes will enter a state of hibernation by then, and you may not be able to find the slightest snake shadow by then.

I made up my mind, went back to my room, took the baggage I had prepared in advance, and went straight to the back mountain.

These days, I have been talking about Xiuren, not that I haven't asked about the identity of the original owner, but Xiuli is very secretive, saying that life in the world, only carrying your own life is enough to work hard, so why add another burden.

I don't know why Xiu Li did this, but since he didn't want to reveal it, I stopped reluctantly.

Except for my identity, he answered all kinds of questions patiently whenever I asked.

When I learned that I was interested in the strange flowers and plants, rare birds and animals in the back mountain. Xiu Li seemed to open up the conversation box and explained to me endlessly. As a result, I also have a deeper understanding of the mountain and the moon snake.

It turns out that this back mountain is not as dangerous and abnormal as rumored by the outside world. All living things here are spiritual, and they can be easily tamed in the right way. For example, if you encounter an animal attack in the back mountain, you only need to blow the unique jade xun of the Fengli faction to minimize its aggression.

When I learned that I planned to explore the back mountain at night, Xiuli actually lent me this jade xun and taught me how to play it, I was very grateful. Otherwise, with the experience of being bitten by a snake last time, no matter how nervous I am, I will never go into the back mountain alone late at night.

Thinking of this, his hand unconsciously touched the Xun in the baggage, which was very reassuring.

I can't help but think back to my time with Xiu Li in the last few days. Perhaps it was because I gradually became acquainted with me, and the indifference and detachment between the words of Xiu were gradually replaced by honesty.

In addition to talking about medicine, we are more often talking about my time and space. Through our conversation, I found that his understanding of the 21st century was far beyond my expectations, because he not only knew the world in the 21st century, but also knew modern thought.

Every time I talk to him, I feel extremely happy. Perhaps it's because I'm in a different world, but I can still express my views as a modern person so unscrupulously, and I feel lucky. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be very depressed. So I don't know when Xiu Li has become my friend who talks about everything. And his excellent insight can often glimpse my mind, but out of respect does not break it, I am very grateful, and I cherish him as a friend.

However, the fact that he is an octogenarian is still difficult for me to accept, not only because he does not look like him on the outside, but also because he does not notice it in his mind. But what does it matter how old he is? It's a blessing to have friends like you in another world.

I followed Xiuren's instructions, and it didn't take long to find the place where the Moon Returning Snake would most appear. I found a hidden place to hide and minimize my activities.

I did this because Xiuli said that the Moon Snake is very sensitive to the sounds of its surroundings, and if it is alarmed, it may attract an attack. This explains why it is so difficult to catch the Moon-Returning Snake: because the snake catcher is often killed by the Moon-Returning Snake before he has time to get close.

I sat still, surrounded by low bushes, but it didn't block my view. I didn't move, I didn't dare to breathe, I only squeezed Yuxun tightly with both hands, put it to my lips, and was always ready to blow Yuxun to protect myself if something happened. I don't know how long it took, but there was a sound of rustling not far ahead. I held my breath and looked towards the source of the sound, my eyes widening.

I saw that there was a moving silver band of light on the ground in front of me where the moonlight was shining, only the thickness of an adult's thumb, and the snakeskin was very dazzling without a trace of lines. The light contrasted with the silvery moonlight, and I was stunned to think that there were such strange creatures in this world.

I just wanted to take a closer look, but suddenly I noticed that the moonlight dimmed. Looking up at the sky, I found that it was the full moon hiding in the clouds. Looking down at the moon returning snake, he was surprised to find that the light around the snake had also dimmed a little. The light of the serpent's body is synchronized with the moon's cloudiness!

I couldn't help but admire again, and at the same time regret: it's a pity that this snake is very poisonous, otherwise I really want to catch one and keep it as a pet. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.

When the sigh fell, I realized that something was wrong, and I saw that the moon returned to the snake and noticed the sound, and the snake body suddenly stood upright, and the snake's head was facing me, attacking me. I was shocked and suddenly remembered Yuxun, but I didn't know when I took it off, and it was too late to find it again. I thought: It's over! The last time I was free, this time no one helped me. The heart closed his eyes, thinking that he was not dead, and he had never died, maybe he would live a faster life in the next life.

However, the expected pain did not come, instead there was a sound of breaking the air, and then the sound of something landing. I was startled, and I hurriedly opened my eyes, only to see a slender object stuck in the seven inches of the snake. It happened that a gust of wind blew, and the part of the thing that was exposed to the snake's body swayed deftly with the wind. I couldn't believe it: that slender thing was ...... A blade of grass! Dead grass in late autumn is brittle, and some of them will crumble into dry powder at the slightest touch. It can be seen from this that the internal strength of the person who shot must be very within the reach of people, so that he can use this fragile withered grass leaf as a weapon in an emergency, and hit it with one blow!

As I thought about it, I felt a figure approaching, and I hurriedly looked at the person who came.

"Niankong!?"
