0153 Chapter Woyun Village Ancient Temple
Woyun Village is located between canyons surrounded by mountains, and the peaks around the village are covered with clouds, just like they are located among clouds. This is the origin of the name "Woyun Village".
There is no road in the village, only a dirt road leads to the mountains. It is said that the nearest town is more than 60 kilometers away, and it takes two days to walk to the town to catch a market. The traffic is blocked and the economy cannot develop. When Ning Tao came to the village, he felt like he was going back in time, as if he had come to a village decades ago.
Jian Mi pulled Ning Tao to his home, and Ning Tao met his mother. She was not old, but because of her years of hard work, she had gray hair on her head, her hands were very rough, and her fingers and tiger mouth were obviously calluses.
Jianmi's mother heard that Ning Tao saved her son and the people from the archaeological team and said that she would keep Ning Tao for lunch no matter what, and asked Jianmi to catch chickens. Ning Tao refused, so she had to agree. The members of the archaeological team also stayed at Jianmi's house, and Ma Tongtong and another woman helped Jianmi's mother cook. Jianmi's mother's surname was Jiang, and they all called her Aunt Jiang.
Ning Tao couldn't stay and took Qingzhu to wander around the village.
At the end of the village, there is a small temple that looks very ancient. Two nanmu trees in front of the gate need to be hugged by someone. A stone tablet is erected next to the steps of the small temple. The stone tablet is full of moss and full of weathering traces. However, the handwriting on it can be vaguely identified: Yandi Temple.
The god worshipped in this small temple is Emperor Yan, namely Shennong.
Yan Emperor Shennong is the leader of the Jiang tribe, and Jian Mi's mother is also surnamed Jiang. Ning Tao couldn't help but have some inexplicable associations in his heart.
The temple door of the small temple is open, and you can see the statue of the god sitting on the shrine at a glance, holding a grass in one hand and a shovel of soil in the other. The statue of the god was carved out of rocks, and the face was weathered so it was impossible to see what it looked like.
Under the shrine is a stone tripod for burning incense, but there is no incense burning.
There is no one in the small temple, it is quiet.
A thought suddenly appeared in Ning Tao's mind, and he said to Qing Zhui: "Qing Zhui, please help me watch someone."
Qingzhui said, "Do you want to get rid of it? This is not good. This is a temple, but I can accompany you to the woods."
Ning Tao was too lazy to pay attention to her. He opened the small medicine box on his shoulder, took out the small porcelain bottle containing the broken version of Xunzu Dan, pulled out the bottle plug, and poured the broken version of Xunzu Dan into his palm. Then, he handed the broken version of Xunzu Dan to his nostrils and sniffed it deeply twice.
The allergic reaction of the drug Xunzu Dan quickly appeared. Ning Tao's eyes burned. After a brief blindness of one or two seconds, the scenery he saw suddenly changed.
The small temple in front of me still exists, and the statue of the Stone Flame Emperor is still sitting on the shrine, but its appearance is not blurry and very clear. A child squatted under the steps and teased ants with grass. He was wearing open-crotch pants, and the bird was exposed to the air without any concealment, dirty.
I don’t know whose child it is, nor what period it is, but what is certain is that the grass on his grave is probably full of grass?
Ning Tao blinked his eyes and looked at the small temple again, and suddenly became shocked.
The woman appeared again, and this time she stood at the door of the small temple and looked at him. Her face was thin and beautiful, with her eyebrows as dark as a pair of green phoenix eyes. If it weren't for the eyes of these demons, she would have been a beauty who fell into a geese, and might have left a famous name in history, such as Xi Shi, Yang Yuhuan, Diao Chan and Wang Zhaojun. She might have become a poet, such as Shangguan Wan'er, and Li Qingzhao.
She just stood there without saying anything, but she gave people the feeling that her body was full of stories, every story was so mysterious, with the vicissitudes of history and a heavy atmosphere.
This was the first time Ning Tao saw her face, in this sudden situation.
Last time, she was wearing a red cheongsam, and he thought she was a figure from the Republic of China period. But this time she was wearing a red Hanfu, with wide sleeves on her neck and a golden hairpin on her head, looking like a lady from the Han, Tang and Ming dynasties.
With the eyes facing each other, time and space seem to be blurred. The past is not the past, the present is not the present.
"You... are you Zhu Hongyu?" Ning Tao spoke out and broke the strange atmosphere.
The woman didn't speak, she was just an image that didn't know why.
But it was this opening that the scene in front of Ning Tao shook for a moment, melting like snowflakes under the scorching sun. His gaze blurred for a second or two. After returning to normal, he could no longer see the woman. The face of Emperor Yan Shennong in the small temple was no longer clear, and the years blurred its face.
The allergic reaction of the drug in the residual version of Xunzu Dan disappeared.
"Brother Ning, who did you call me just now?" Qing Zhui said curiously: "But I didn't see anyone else."
"I can see some strange illusions when I sniff the Zun Pill." Ning Tao said that he did not want to hide it from Qingzhui.
Qing Zhui suddenly approached Ning Tao, lowered his head and sniffed the residual version of the Zuxuan Dan in his hand. She didn't respond. She even stuck out her tongue and licked it, but she still didn't respond.
Ning Tao said, "You have one. If you had any reaction, you would have seen the things I saw long ago." He put the broken version of the Zu-Search Pill back into the small porcelain bottle, put it away and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
Qingzhu followed Ning Tao into the small temple.
Behind the main hall of the small temple is a small courtyard with a row of stone walls and a small shed built under the stone walls, with some debris, buckets, brooms, etc., and nothing else.
Ning Tao was a little disappointed. He left the small temple at the end of the village and returned to Jianmi's home with Qingzhui.
Aunt Jiang and Ma Tongtong were still working in the kitchen, so Ning Tao walked in and helped to burn the fire.
"Doctor Ning, don't be busy. Take a break. You are the noble man in our family. How can you still burn the fire when you invite you to a meal?" Aunt Jiang looked very sad.
Ning Tao smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm idle too. Aunt Jiang, please don't say anything if you are polite. I'm here to burn the fire and want to talk to you."
Aunt Jiang smiled, "What do you want to talk to me?"
Ning Tao said: "When was the Yan Emperor Temple at the end of the village built?"
Aunt Jiang thought for a while before saying, "I don't know the specific time, but I heard from my grandfather that the Yan Emperor Temple was there when he was born. I thought it might have been hundreds of years."
"Don't anyone manage it?" Ning Tao asked again.
Aunt Jiang stir-fry the potatoes and chicken in the big iron pot, "Whenever there is a need to pray to God and Buddha, you will burn incense and worship, no one will manage it. The incense used to be quite strong, and now no one will go to worship Emperor Yan. Young people, those who have the means to make money in the city, leaving us old and useless farming, who has the time to do that." After a pause, she added, "By the way, Dr. Ning, what are you asking about this?"
Ning Tao said: "I'm just asking casually."
Ma Tongtong, who was cutting the chickens, said, "I have visited that small temple, and according to my experience, it has a history of at least four or five hundred yuan. Even a small temple is nothing special."
Ning Tao said: "Miss Ma, can you give me your mobile phone number?"
Ma Tongtong said: "Yes, my mobile phone number is 138..."
Ning Tao edited Ma Tongtong's mobile phone number into a contact person, and then dialed Ma Tongtong over. When Ma Tongtong edited his number, he said, "If you borrow that book, you can call me. If I can't come, please take the book into a photo and send it to me, okay?"
Ma Tongtong smiled at Ning Tao, "Of course, but you still have to give me your WeChat account."
Ning Tao also smiled and then said his WeChat account.
At this time, Jianmi walked in, looked at her, and his mother hesitated for a moment before saying, "Doctor Ning, can I take you as a teacher, can I study medicine with you?" As he said that, he was about to kneel down.
Ning Tao hurriedly supported him and said, "What are you doing? Studying medicine is not a simple thing. I studied for twelve years before I was admitted to medical university, and then I studied in college for four years. I barely mastered the ability to see and treat diseases. Everything else is easy to say, but this is the matter of studying medicine, so I can't accept you as an apprentice."
Aunt Jiang sighed.
Jianmi also seemed very sad, but he seemed to understand what Ning Tao said, studying medicine requires a rich reserve of knowledge, but he just didn't.
Ning Tao said, "How about this, I will show you the medicinal materials I picked. If you don't have anything to do, you can help me pick them. You can also ask the villagers to help pick them, and I will buy them at that time. There is absolutely no problem with the price, so I will guarantee that you will get married."
Jianmi's face suddenly turned red.
Aunt Jiang said, "I'm so stupid. Thank you Dr. Ning if you don't hurry."
Jian Mi then came to her senses and said shyly: "Thank you, Dr. Ning."
Ning Tao said: "Jianmi, take me to your room and I'll have a good talk with you."
"Okay, Dr. Ning, come with me." Jian Mi looked very happy.
Ning Tao brought the medicinal materials he picked to a simple room, and then told him the characteristics of the medicinal materials one by one, where to pick them, etc.
Jianmi listened very seriously, afraid that something would be missed.
After Ning Tao finished his story, he placed his right index finger between his teeth and bit it gently, then walked to the wall and drew a blood lock in an inconspicuous place.
Jian Mi looked at Ning Tao with curious eyes, "Doctor Ning, what are you doing?"
Ning Tao said: "Don't worry about this, remember not to wipe it."
Jianmi nodded, "Okay, I won't wipe it."
Ning Tao said: "It is best to cover it with a painting."
Jianmi nodded again, "Okay, I'll cover it with a painting."
Ning Tao smiled and said, "You are really an honest child. When you get older, I will introduce you to a partner."
Jian Mi asked: "Doctor Ning, have you found a partner? What does it feel like to find a partner?"
Ning Tao was immediately embarrassed, "That...we'll go out to see if the meal is ready."
After lunch, Ning Tao said goodbye to the members of the archaeological team, Aunt Jiang and Jian, and took the medicinal materials collected by Qing Zhuihe and left along the way out of the village. Soon after leaving the village, Ning Tao and Qing Zhui got into the mountains and forests and came to a cliff that would not be drenched by rain and drew a blood lock.
"It's already past the clinic's moving time, I don't know where it will move." Standing in front of the blood lock and holding the key, Ning Tao became nervous.
Qing thought for a while and said, "Don't you know when you go back and take a look?"
