At dawn, the sky was slightly bright, and there was an intermittent 'tick-tick' sound outside the window, which was the sound of water droplets falling on the potholes after the showers had stopped at the beginning of the shower, like the footsteps of time.

Bai Xian'er opened her confused eyes, covered her mouth, yawned a few times, stretched her waist, sat on the bed, looked at the sky through the window, got up and put on a gown, walked to the window, pushed open the window, the world after the heavy rain was always fresh, and a few wisps of cool breeze hit her face, which made her spirits soar.

After a brief freshening up, tidying up the messy bed mat, and walking out of the room.

When I came to the living room, I saw that there was still an overnight meal on the dining table, so I brought it to the kitchen, and after a simple hot time, I ate a few bites indiscriminately.

I took some rice from the rice bowl, washed it several times in a large bowl, poured it into the clay pot, added water, boiled the porridge, and by the way, took out two eggs from the bamboo basket next to the cutting board and put them in the large pot on one side. After a period of busy work, I began to wash and wash, wash, rub, and collect, and I was so busy that I was sweating profusely.

Extinguished the fire, left the firewood to warm the porridge in the crockpot, fished out the eggs from the cauldron, beat a small bowl of pickles from the pickle jar in the corner, put the eggs and pickles on the dining table, covered the bamboo cover, and saw that the finishing was almost done, so he walked through the kitchen, went to the backyard cabin and took a back basket, a small pickaxe, a bundle of hemp rope, and a dagger around his waist, hurriedly turned the front yard, pushed open the gate, and walked on the village road.

Along the village road, all the way up, turn left and right, came to the door of another house, the heavy rain just stopped, the mud road was slippery, but Bai Xian'er had long been used to it, she skillfully pushed open the door, walked through the yard, ran directly to the kitchen, and began to work again.

Before I knew it, it was already getting bright.

The old woman pushed open the kitchen door and saw that Bai Xian'er was busy finishing it, so she said: "Xian'er, you are tired enough, I can handle this little work at home, why did you run home again!"

When Bai Xian'er saw the woman's words, she smiled and said: "Mother, it's okay, the master won't blame me, your legs and feet are inconvenient, I came from the master, but it's only a few minutes away, and I can't get in the way!"

The woman sighed, shook her head, and turned into the hall with tears in her eyes.

After Bai Xian'er saw that everything was done here, she carried a bamboo basket on her back and a small pickaxe, walked out of the gate, followed the village road, and walked to the back mountain.

Baijia Village, a small fishing village on the edge of the East China Sea, eats the sea by the sea, most of them are fishermen, although Bai Xian'er is not a fisherman, she is also a fisherman's child, she loves the sea.

Because when he was ten years old, his father had an accidental stroke, and his body was in a half-dead state, and his mother had inconvenient legs and feet, so it was more difficult to live at home.

The reason why she is so anxious today is because after every storm, she has to go to the 'Smoke Cliff' to find the legendary 'Ice Blue Spirit', because this herb is the greatest hope for healing her father. Therefore, in the past few years, as long as the storm appears, once it stops, the first thing she thinks of is to hope that the 'Ice Blue Spirit' can grow on the 'Smoke Cliff'.

"Ice Blue Spirit", also known as "the favor of the sea god", is a very mysterious medicinal material, three blue crystalline leaves, dark roots, legend has it that after death, the body sinks into the sea of suffering, hoping to be redeemed souls, will endure severe pain, through the hopeless land, floating from the sea, turned into blue herbs, rescue the soul suffering in the world, so as to obtain the true sense of salvation. Because the soul of the previous life is too miserable or dirty, it may become poison, so it needs to be washed away by rootless water, and the rain in the sky is just rootless water, which can purify the soul, so as to turn it into a harmless miracle medicine for Baili, specializing in the treatment of 'soul stroke', commonly known as brain stroke.

A legend is a legend after all, as for whether it has appeared, it is unknown, but Bai Xian'er firmly believes that there must be this kind of 'herb' in this world, because it exists, so the search has not stopped for several years. This medicine can't see the sun, and the place where he appears is generally a perennial smoke cage place, and the smoke cliff meets this condition, not to mention that it is still a 'herb garden'.

Along the mountain road, climb the back mountain, a round of red sun slowly rises from the sea level, the glow is bright, full of hope. There were waves playing again, the sea breeze was blowing, and stubborn seagulls crossed under the red sun in rows and pairs. It's refreshing.

Detour from the back mountain to Yancang Cliff, there is a shortcut, Bai Xian'er, who collects medicine all the year round, is already familiar with the road, she crosses the gravel road of the ancient cypress and pine, crosses the stream of Ding Ding Dong, where the back mountain and Yancang Cliff are connected, it is a 100-meter iron cable bridge, through the iron cable, it is to Yancang Cliff.

As the name suggests, 'Smoky Cliffs' are steep and smoky cliffs.

After getting off the chain bridge, the smell of herbs made Bai Xian'er intoxicated, she was no stranger to here, since she began to study medicine with her master, almost all the herbs came from here, sometimes, Bai Xian'er even guessed: these white mist seemed to be the 'fairy qi' descended from Yaochi, otherwise how could it nourish so many spiritual herbs and immortal medicines.

It's just that her mind today is completely only on the 'Ice Blue Spirit', so she doesn't care about anything else, follows the path, walks to the edge of the end of the Yancang Cliff familiarly, takes out the hemp rope from the back basket, ties one end to the trunk of the big tree, and wraps the rope around herself twice, fastens the live buckle, puts the bamboo basket on her back, and slowly descends from the cliff.

I silently recited in my heart: "O god of the sea, god of the sea, please bless me to find the 'Ice Blue Spirit' today, so that my father can get rid of the torture of illness, the little girl is grateful!"

Her eyes swept over every inch of soil on the cliff, over the years, she didn't know how many times she had been here, with her eyes closed, she knew where to settle and where she could hold her hand, but for the sake of 'Ice Blue Spirit', she still slowly, slowly.

God will always favor those who are grateful and insist on doing one thing for a long time, perhaps it is Bai Xian'er's filial piety that touches God.

At the waist of the cliff, in front of the Meridian Cliff Cave, there was a blue light in the white mist, she was overjoyed, she didn't care about anything else, let go of the hemp rope, descended quickly, and quickly tightened the hemp rope on the mountainside, and landed on the edge of the blue light unmistakable.

Put your feet on the ground, relax the rope, walk against the wall, and walk to the past, overjoyed. The three-leaf blue crystalline, the rhizome is as black as ink, bright and smooth.

Tears fell as scheduled.

The sunlight rushed into the white mist, and Bai Xian'er quickly got up, turned her back to the sun, covered the 'Ice Blue Spirit', and used a small pickaxe to dig up the moss and mud at the roots. When he saw that there was nothing to wrap up, he took out the dagger from his waist, cut off the sleeves of his shirt, carefully wrapped it, and put it in his arms.

It was half a waist wide road, and she was overjoyed and ready to use the rope to pull herself back to the top of the cliff. Just got up and found that there was a 'corpse' lying in front of the cliff cave not far away, which made her feel a little frightened.

Walking over, I looked closely, and it was a young man of the same age as himself, his scalp had been broken, and there were many blood stains on his body. Bai Xian'er stretched out her hand to test her nose, found that she was breathing, and listened to it again, her heartbeat weakened, she instinctively reached out and took her pulse.

There are many external injuries, as well as internal injuries, broken bones and tendons, damaged internal organs, pale face, swollen body, most of which were washed up by the waves.

Suddenly, the 'nameless' body lying on the ground spasmed, his face was flatulent, Bai Xian'er looked at it, this person's throat was blocked, and he couldn't breathe.

She took out the dagger, skillfully cut the other party's trachea, and found a hollow branch from the cliff, and actually performed the emergency operation of tracheotomy.

The situation is urgent, she didn't think about it so much, it's just that all the people who live by the sea have heard such a sentence: If you find a corpse on the sea, then please bury him well, if you find someone who is not dead at sea, treat it with your heart, and life is equal, it is the will of the sea god and the dragon king.

Although the rapid incision of the trachea can save him temporarily, the injuries on his body are still serious enough, but how can he send this person up?

If his injuries weren't so serious, he would be fine, but in this situation, moving around would only add to injury. If you go up and ask someone to come down to help, that's fine, but what if the birds and beasts around you take this person away?

If you don't rush back before lunch and help the master cook, with the master's violent temper, it is estimated that he will suffer again.

She hesitated.

Time passed slowly, the doctor was benevolent, Bai Xian'er was not a hypocritical person, she carefully and tried her best to help this person deal with his external injuries.

"Xian'er, Xian'er!" came the shouts of a man from the top of the cliff. It was already early afternoon.

"Brother Bailong, I'm here, in front of the Meridian Cliff Cave!" Bai Xian'er shouted with her head up.

After a while, several young people climbed down from the top of the cliff, and Bai Long carefully looked Bai Xian'er up and down, and asked with concern, "Nothing happened!"

Bai Xian'er told Bai Long about the situation she had encountered, and then led a few people to the cliff cave.

When I returned to the village, it was already dusk, and I was very glad that the person was still 'angry', because after moving from the waist of the cliff to the top of the mountain, there were more immortal herbs there, and according to the situation, the properties of the medicine, Bai Xian'er skillfully treated it. Her medical skills were not studied in vain.

Back in the medical hall, an old man, with a fairy wind and bones, crane hair and a childish face, dressed in a fairy crane brocade shirt, stepping on the seven stars flying moon and clouds, looking at Bai Xian'er with an angry face. yelled: "If you want to starve the master, why don't you go cook quickly!"

Bai Xian'er knew that the master was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, so she fearlessly spit out the snake's head, made a grimace, walked past the old man angrily, and then turned back after a while, and said angrily: "Hmph, who said that 'Ice Blue Spirit' is just a legend, I found it today!"

After speaking, he took out the herb from his bosom and handed it to the old man.

The old man looked at Bai Xian'er who walked into the room, the corners of his mouth went up, revealing a smile, and then looked at Bai Long, and found that he was pointing at the 'stranger' on the stretcher with his fingers. It was a stretcher, but it used two branches and some rattan.

The old man walked in, looking at the injuries that had been treated by Bai Xian'er, with a hint of approval in his eyes, and suddenly, the 'Ice Blue Spirit' in his hand shone brightly, and the old man was shocked.
