The secret affairs of the medicine woman

I was stunned for a moment, and couldn't wait to ask Gao Moli: "She told you another thing?" Does it have anything to do with our operation? ”

Gao Moli looked up at the desert shrouded in night: "I'm not sure." She has a son who disappeared nine years ago......" Gao Moli's words were extremely concise, but I still spied a secret hidden behind the Divine Medicine Woman between the lines!

Shen Yao Po has a son, who is in his 40s, who served under the Sixth Master, who suddenly disappeared nine years ago, but before he disappeared, he had returned home once. One night, as soon as she lay down and had not yet fallen asleep, she heard a heavy knock at the door, and the sound was very hurried.

The medicine woman picked up the kerosene lamp and wore cotton clothes to open the door, as soon as the door opened a gap, her son flashed into the yard, closed the door with his feet, and before the medicine woman opened his mouth to ask, his son held his left arm with his right hand, gritted his teeth with a pale face and took a breath of cool air, and said eagerly: "Mother, help me cut off this arm!" ”

The sudden words made the medicine woman panic in her heart, she put down the kerosene lamp, pulled up her son's left arm, pulled up the sleeve, under the faint light, her son's forearm was black, to be precise, there seemed to be countless dark purple earthworms squirming back and forth under the skin, through the creeping gap, faintly visible eerie white bones! It seems that under the skin, above the bones, has been bitten away. Luckily, his elbow was wrapped tightly around a few thin wires, which kept the strange worm from the muscles of his upper arm.

Even though the Divine Medicine Woman was accustomed to seeing wind and rain, but it was the first time she saw such a strange situation, she trembled and said: "Evil! Son! You can't save this arm! ”。

While speaking, the medicine woman held a kerosene lamp and pulled the guillotine knife of the herbs, and the beads of sweat on her son's forehead were already painful, and when she saw this, she immediately understood, knelt on the ground, put her elbow on the guillotine, and urged: "Mother, hurry up and do it, it really hurts me to death!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the medicine woman pressed the guillotine with both hands, only to hear a crisp sound of "click", and the glittering guillotine suddenly fell into the card slot, and half of her son's forearm was pierced like this! The knife fell in the upper part of the wire, so that a little blood fell into the dirt of the courtyard, and the purple half-amputated arm fell silently like the dead wood of the insects.

Just after the severed arm fell to the ground, an astonishing scene appeared, dozens of dark purple soft worms broke out of the skin, quickly swam to the blood-stained soil, those soft worms were only as thick as little fingers, after touching the blood, the black purple insect body immediately turned red, through the weak light, the god medicine woman found that the red of the insect body also had stars and black spots.

If the son of the divine medicine woman was released, he inhaled the cool air and made his butt on the ground, pinched the broken part of his arm with his right hand, and mourned in his mouth: "My life has finally been picked up!" The medicine woman brought her bottles and jars of miraculous medicine prescriptions, and in a blink of an eye, she stopped the bleeding for her son. At this time, she remembered the strange insects on the ground, so she found a clay pot to prepare to put them up, but most of the strange insects were gone, and only one was still wriggling in the broken arm.

The medicine woman put up the only remaining strange worm, looked at the arm covered with white bones on the ground, couldn't help but gasp, and asked her son sharply, "How did you provoke these strange insects?" ”

After taking the painkiller, her son's expression was much better than before, he lit a cigarette and took two puffs: "I don't know, when I feel the pain, half of my arm is already like this." ”

The medicine woman helped him into the house, and he shook his head: "Mother, I have to do a big thing, if this thing is done, my son will not worry for a few lifetimes, you just wait to enjoy the blessings!" After speaking, he stood up with one arm on his back, glanced at the old house of the earthen house, and then looked at the iron-faced medicine woman, and sighed: "If I can't come back, someone will also give you a pension and send you to the end!" ”

The god medicine woman asked coldly: "Can't you go anyway?" ”

The man did not answer, but left the cigarette butt still on the ground, ran it a few times with his foot, and crushed it: "Mother, I have to go!" With that, he shook half of his empty sleeves and opened the door.

Unlike ordinary mothers, she did not plead or pull, but held the clay pot and stood quietly in the courtyard, watching her son's tired figure leave, watching the dilapidated wooden door being closed again.

If it weren't for the arm on the ground that was half bare and the clay pot with strange insects in her hand, she wouldn't even feel that her son had never returned.

As she expected, her son was gone for nine years, during which time he never returned.

I was shocked when I heard this, and said to Gao Moli: "Red insects with black spots? This seems to be somewhat similar to the worm in the body of the second uncle of the black bull before he died! Could it be that the experiences of the son of the divine medicine woman and the second uncle have intersected? ”

Gao Moli nodded, "They've probably all been there." ”
