[Comprehensive] Where was your birthday this year?

After deciding to visit Yimulian, Yuyi began to sort out the things he brought. Yimulian said that they were sacrifices given to her by people, and she was really curious about what there would be.

The things used as sacrifices are naturally of excellent quality. Although the preparations for this sacrifice were hasty, there are still many kinds of sacrifices.The package brought by Yimulian is food and clothing accessories wrapped in cloth towels. The food used as sacrifices is very fresh, such as fruits, snacks, rice balls, dried meat, rice wine, and dried rice... You can see these The food is not prepared by the whole family, and ordinary people can't bring out so much at one time. She roughly ordered the amount of food, which is probably enough for her to eat for a month.The clothes and accessories are not so new, but they probably have not been worn by anyone. Yuyi picked up the clothes and compared them, and found that they were too big for her to drag to the ground, so she put them away.

After sorting out these food and clothing, Yuyi opened the box carried by Yimulian's dragon, and then she found that the things inside were very interesting, a child's woodcarving—although the craftsmanship was rough, it looked like it should be It's her; a few handfuls of dried herbs—presumably to thank her for her healing?The body of a poisonous snake—it may be the snake that bit the child, Yuyi found an open space to bury the snake; the child's clothes were obviously worn for a long time—Yuyi remembers when she should treat the bitten child , he is wearing this dress...

There were a lot of messy items, and Yuyi sorted them out one by one. If she didn't understand the use and didn't need it, she found a place to bury it. For the things that could be used, such as bundles of herbs, she simply tidied them up and kept them for later use.

The day passed like this, Yuyi ate some fruit and rice balls at night, lay in the cave and looked at the night sky from the entrance of the cave, while thinking about what to bring when visiting Yimulian.

Obviously, you can’t bring ordinary souvenirs when visiting a god. It’s okay to ask her to pick some good offerings from these offerings and take them back. After much deliberation, Yuyi finally found it from the dead poisonous snake. a breakthrough.

Asura has taught Yuyi a lot of pharmacology knowledge. The original intention is that if she gets injured and sick and there are no kind people around, she must be able to do the most basic treatment for herself, and the treatment of snake venom is the same, but she can only do some simple ones. Antidote ointment formula, but it is completely sufficient to deal with the previous situation.

Having made up her mind, Yuyi decided to go for a walk in the forest tomorrow to see where there are herbs that can cure snake venom, pick some to make ointment, and give it to Yimulian for him to give to the villagers.

Yimulian cared so much about those villagers but didn't help him this time, probably because he didn't have a good solution to the snake venom himself, right?In this way, her delivery of ointment should also be useful.

Feeling a little uncertain, Yuyi turned over and was about to go to bed. Anyway, do it first, and if Yimulian doesn't like it, she will come back and think about other souvenirs.

The next day, Yuyi got up early in the morning, took a few rice balls as a day's dry food, and began to search in the forest. Asura had taught her where medicinal herbs would grow in the forest. She walked all the way, paying attention to the roots of the trees. In the shadows under the rocks, she soon found the area where the herb was growing, and gathered as much as she needed before the sun went down.

Perhaps because of the favor of the gods, even if that god is the god of wind, the plants growing in this forest are still luxuriant and full of power. Yuyi is very satisfied with the quality of the herbs she picked up, and planted them on the rocks without trees on the river bank. A wooden rack on which herbs are placed to dry.

It's not summer now, and it takes longer to dry than in summer. Yuyi spends the next few days looking at these medicinal herbs, and at the same time making simple grinding tools with dead wood branches and stones.

After less than half a month, the herbs were completely dried, and Yuyi started to make snake venom ointment, crushed the dried herbs, mixed them according to the proportion, and finally added honey to make a paste. For the convenience of preservation, she put the ointment into the prepared mold and semi-sealed it, heated the stone bowl made before, put the ointment in it and baked it slowly until it was completely dry, so that when it was time to use, she added a small amount Warm water is ready to use.

Wrapping the black lacquered medicine in cloth, Yuyi, who did it well, was heartbroken. The medicine she made must be usable, but if it is really given to Fengshen...wouldn't it be a bit shabby?

But she really doesn't know what to give, so let's try first.

On the second day after the medicine block was made, Yuyi brought her packed gifts to the previous cliff. When she arrived, Yimulian was looking at the village below the mountain. It was exactly the same as when she first came. The posture made her feel that Yimulian seemed to have never left here.

"Master Yimulian, I'm sorry to disturb you." Yuyi bowed down to salute Fengshen, and greeted cautiously.

The white-haired boy Fengshen turned around and came to Yuyi's side. Instead of responding to her greeting, he asked her with concern: "Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Yuyi immediately shook her head and explained: "No, I haven't encountered any difficulties, but I just want to ask you for advice."

"And this... This is the medicine I made. It can treat poisonous snake bites. I wonder if you would like to accept it?" Yuyi hesitated to hand the medicine out, and she was full of anxiety. She didn't know this inexplicable Will the accompanying gift be accepted?

Then she heard the boy's slightly surprised voice.

"Can it really cure snake venom? That would be great!"

Yuyi raised her head in a daze, Yimulian's reaction was completely beyond her expectations, and the Fengshen she was looking at smiled and explained: "I am the Fengshen, not the God of Medicine, and I can't do anything about snake poison. I can only watch from the sidelines when the poisonous snake and beast were injured, and I really thank you for saving that child this time."

Was she really right?Fengshen has nothing to do with snake venom?After listening to Yimulian's words, Yuyi slowly let go of her heart, smiled relaxedly and said, "It would be great if you like it, but I'm really afraid that you won't like it."

"How come? I like this gift very much." When Yimulian spoke, his fingers gently rubbed the cloth wrapped in the medicine lump, and he seemed really satisfied. He seemed to be gradually calming down from the surprise. , stretched out his hand to Yuyi to invite her, "What did you say you wanted to ask me? Come to my shrine, I also have some questions to ask you."

"It's a great honor to be invited." Yu Yi saluted again.

The shrine is a place where people build and worship the gods, that is, the residence of the gods, but the shrine of Yimulian is completely different from the temple of Hades that Yuyi has seen. Behind the vermilion torii is a long approach, and there are stone carvings of dragons on both sides of the approach. It looks like the one next to Yimulian.

It was the first time for Yuyi to see the shrine, and she was very curious about the things on the road, but she didn't ask any more questions, but quietly followed Yimulian all the way into the innermost part of the shrine, and when she passed a large hall, she saw many offerings The sacrifices were similar to the ones Yimulian brought her, and they seemed to be offered by people in the village.

Yimulian brought Yuyi into the main hall. There are three shrine halls. The outermost worship hall is for people to worship and pray. The main hall inside is the place where the gods live, and it is a place that human beings regard as forbidden places and must never step into.

It stands to reason that there is no place for entertaining guests in the shrine, but Yimulian himself doesn't care about it. He is not one of the gods of Gao Tianyuan who pays attention to ostentation, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with entertaining a girl who is not a human being in the main hall that is sacred and untouchable in the eyes of humans. , By analogy, the human shrine is nothing more than his home.

However, Guan Yuyu, who is involved in this, is completely unaware of it at the moment, otherwise her favor for Yimulian will probably increase a little bit.

There is no such thing as furniture in the main hall. As a god, Ichimokulian doesn't need those, but it would be rude to use it for entertaining guests. However, although he is the god of wind, although the priesthood does not involve space, he will place it elsewhere in the shrine. It is still possible to transfer the items.

After arranging the low table and the snacks and drinks offered by people, Yimulian invited Yuyi to sit down. Seeing the little girl's curious and cautious appearance, he opened his mouth first: "Then what do you want to ask me?"

"It's what you said before, about monsters." Yuyi couldn't wait to ask the question that had troubled her for several days, "What are monsters? What is blood food? I've never heard of these things. , so I hope you can tell me this."

"Don't you know?" Yimulian looked at Yuyi in surprise. This little girl's eyes are different from ordinary people. She has magical power and can absorb the power he radiates, and she is not a god without belief. Thought she was a monster, "Aren't you a monster?"

"I... probably really aren't a human being? But I'm not a monster either." Yu Yi hesitated for a moment, and didn't choose to lie to the god in front of her. A goddess from heaven, but I have not seen her."

Yimulian pondered for a while and said: "Goddess in the sky... I understand, if this is the case, it is not impossible for you to be in a situation like this." Although he has never seen or heard of similar things, after all, the gods of Gao Tianyuan There are very few goddesses who are willing to marry humans, but if this is the case, then the fact that the girl in front of her has magical powers but does not know monsters can also explain the past.

Reminiscing that Yuyi has been living alone all this time, the eyes that she looked at the girl felt more pity. As a monster, it is very common for a child as old as her to live alone, but if she was born by a human being, then Presumably the previous experience was not very good.

In the days to come, help her more within his ability.

Thinking so in his heart, Yimulian said to Yuyi: "Then let me tell you about monsters in detail."
