The story of the woman's residence in the cemetery soon spread to the master, and the friends who studied there saw the woman as if they were seeing a ghost, and after the master's criticism on the spot, they stopped being noisy, and finally quieted down and listened carefully to the master's teaching. At this time, the woman hated Xiao Wan so much that she blamed her, and she actually poked out the matter of living in the ancient tomb.

"Xiao Yuan, why did you tell me about living in the ancient tomb?" The woman asked angrily.

"I'm sorry! I just thought it was a very strange thing, so I talked to one of my fellow students, how do you know that one is ten, ten is a hundred, and everyone knows. Xiao Wan said apologetically.

Before leaving, the master gave her a few oracle bones and a sharp piece of jade, which she used to hang on the head of the bed with her own name. Xiao Wan was also called back by her parents to concentrate on female work, and their family opened a ceramic workshop, mainly producing some ceramic products, such as bowls, cups, bottles, etc. Usually study together, day and night, there is no feeling, once separated, there is a little more sadness. Her parents sent her here to study, hoping that she would know more knowledge, and that she could draw some calligraphy and painting on ceramics in the future to increase its interest. Xiao Yun also lived up to expectations, although he learned a little slowly, but he learned it anyway, and he was finally able to get out of the teacher smoothly.

One day, as usual, the woman carried a basket of herbs to the market to sell, and the market sold all kinds of food, cloth, and daily necessities, and the traffic was very busy. In a corner, there are more than a dozen shops specializing in medicines and medicinal herbs, and there are many herb growers squatting there with baskets of herbs like women. There are too many sick people, and their herbs are always snatched up by people who know the goods, such as doctors, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled.

But today is a bit abnormal, the woman brought a basket of herbs is actually no one cares, seeing noon, she is very anxious, looking at the people coming and going, hoping that a kind person can buy her basket of herbs, and finally a boy with good facial features about her age came to her, squatted down and asked the price of the herbs, the woman seemed to see a ray of light in the dark. Her eyes lit up, and she said that these herbs were sold cheaply, and the boy gave her some shellfish, and wanted to buy them all.

"These are all medicines, you want them all?" The woman's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it.

"Yes, Shi Niang fell and injured herself a few days ago, some of them were bought for her, and the rest wanted to be bought back for planting." The boy's voice was bright, and the woman looked him up and down, and saw that his hair was very neatly combed, and judging from his clothes, the fabric was very bright, and he did not feel like an ordinary child.

"Shi Niang?" The woman was full of doubts.

"Yes, Shi Niang is the nurse arranged for me by my father." The boy replied earnestly.

Since someone wanted to buy it, of course she didn't want to refuse, so she hurriedly put all the herbs into a cloth bag and handed it to him, just as he was about to take it away, suddenly a hideous-looking middle-aged man came out of nowhere, they walked through between them, took the bag of herbs in their arms, and ran away.

The boy stood up and shouted, "Catch the thief!" Catch the thief! Three or two people gathered around, but no one dared or wanted to chase after the fierce-looking man. The woman stood up like a spring and chased after the middle-aged man. She ran as fast as an arrow, and in a short time caught up with the man, and she threw a punch into the man's back, which was so powerful that the man fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time. shouted straight out of his mouth: "The heroine spares her life!" Heroine spare her life! The boy was dumbfounded, he never thought that the girl in front of him, who looked soft and weak, would have miraculous skills.

The woman walked over and picked up the bag of herbs, and said loudly: "Let's see if you dare to do anything wrong in the future, otherwise you will take your dog's life!" ”

"I also have no choice, the family is surrounded by walls, my old mother suddenly vomited blood yesterday, so I had to make this decision! I hope the woman will let me go. The man clutched his chest and staggered to his feet, and said weakly.

"In that case, let him go! I'll give him this bag of herbs. The boy said very generously. The woman handed him the herb again, he took it, and bent down again and again to thank him: "Thank you for the woman, thank you for the hero!" The middle-aged man hugged the herbs and left trembling slightly.

"Then you gave him these herbs, what should you do with your nurse?" The woman asked with concern. The boy glanced at the people selling herbs in the next place, several of them had been scared away by the messy position, and several of them didn't seem to have fresh herbs.

"Or you go to my lodgings, and I'll give you some. Anyway, I can't sell out of herbs every year, so you can choose more herbs to grow back. The woman said generously. Hearing this, the boy was of course willing to go with him.

When they arrived at the tomb, the boy was surprised and asked, "You live here?" It looks particularly remote here. Aren't you afraid? The boy was locked up in the house all day, and he didn't know that it was an ancient tomb.

"No, my mother and my sister live here together. At this time, they may still be working in the fields, and they may not come back, and they are always so busy that they forget the hour. The woman said as she pulled some herbs for treating falls, "Look here, what herbs are you interested in?" You can pick a few at will and go back to planting. However, there is no guarantee that they will all be able to survive. ”

At a glance, I saw that it was full of all kinds of medicinal herbs, including Hualing grass, Xuanjing grass, Gu Xuecao, Qianmu grass and so on. "You can choose a few of the most commonly used herbs for me!" The boy said, "If you give me herbs, I will give you something as a token of gratitude." After speaking, the boy took out a bronze dagger for self-defense from his clothes and handed it to her.

"Your name is Wu Ding?" The woman asked.

"Yes!" Wu Ding nodded, "Seeing that you have planted these herbs, I think you must have studied herbs, so I will call you Herb Girl!" The woman laughed when she heard this, nodded and said, "Okay!" After a while, the woman handed Wu Ding a packet of herbs, and Wu Ding also told the woman where she lived, so that she could go to him at any time if she had any difficulties.

I thought that they lived here peacefully, but how did they know that the war happened, the earthwork attacked in, and the Shang Dynasty sent troops to block it, and wars broke out frequently. The people here are in dire straits, and they all move away one after another. When the woman came to Wu Ding's residence, she saw the three words "Shangheyuan" written on the plaque on the door. The house was very large and spacious, unlike ordinary people's houses, she knocked on the courtyard door, but no one answered and no one came to open the door, the woman thought to herself: Isn't it afraid of war, but also the family moved? It's a shame that such a big house. Just as she was disappointed and turned to leave, the door opened, and the person who opened it was a housekeeper.

"Little girl, seeing that you are not very old, who are you looking for?" Jia Ding asked.

"I'm looking for Wu Ding!" The woman said loudly, the family had never seen her before, and asked her to wait in front of the courtyard gate, and after he went in to report, Wu Ding came out. "It's you, herb girl!" Wu Ding was very happy to see her, and hurriedly introduced her into the courtyard, where several towering trees and patches of lush exotic flowers and plants were planted. In a corner not far away, some of the herbs that the woman had given him grew, some of them had lived, but some of them had withered and seemed to be dead. At this time, an elderly woman walked out and looked at Wu Ding and the woman. "Shi Niang!" Wu Ding shouted at her, and then said to the woman: "This is my nurse, her injuries have healed, it was your herb that saved her!"

"Master, the apricot soup has been cooked and placed on the table, you and this young lady can go in and eat it." Shi Niang walked up to them and said.

"Okay, I got it." Wu Ding said, and Shi Niang retreated.

"By the way, it's an empty city now. Why haven't you left yet? The woman sat down at the table and ate a bite of apricot soup and asked.

"Didn't you leave either?" Wu Ding took a sip of apricot soup from the bowl and asked.

"We live in a secluded location, which has its own benefits, and we don't need to flee." The woman replied.

"To tell you the truth, this place is already full of Shang Dynasty troops who have come to attack the enemy, and this is the camp." Wu Ding replied.

The woman was taken aback when she heard this, and said, "This is the camp, what do you have to do with the imperial court?" ”

"We are the people of the court. My father is the younger brother of today's son, Xiao Yi. Wu Ding said. The woman's eyes widened in surprise when she heard this, she really didn't know Mount Tai.
