The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 578 - 331: Giant Pig_2
Changtian estimated that Yin Jiu You would soon discover that the yin land up ahead had been stolen, and he would quickly come to check whether the Cold Devouring Fish remaining were still there. Encountering him at this time would be unwise. Therefore, this was also the last Extremely Yin Land they dug open.
Just as Ning Xiaoxian was dusting off her long hair and about to leave, Qi Zai suddenly said, "There’s someone here, and it’s a child." It walked into the bushes, lifted its long legs, and pulled out a small person.
This girl’s skin was slightly coffee-colored, and right now, blood was flowing out of all seven orifices, sticking dead leaves and twigs to her face, obscuring her features. However, her chest, just beginning to develop, was still heaving, indicating she was still breathing.
Ning Xiaoxian extended her Divine Sense to examine the girl and found that her injuries originated from a high-speed impact, no doubt caused by the wild boar, feeling a sudden guilt. If it weren’t for their carelessness in letting the pig demon escape this far, this girl wouldn’t have been hit.
But why was there a girl in the deep mountain forest in the middle of the night? If she hadn’t already passed out, Ning Xiaoxian might have thought she was a demon in disguise.
"Her wounds need to be treated immediately." Ning Xiaoxian instructed Qi Zai to lay the girl flat, then squatted down next to her, popping a medicine pill into the girl’s mouth to hang on to life. Then she meticulously began to check her body. The child had severe external injuries with a fractured right hand and leg, two broken ribs, two broken finger bones on her left hand, a swollen wrist joint, along with countless scrapes and abrasions. Fortunately, when she was hit and sent flying, she landed on relatively soft bushes, avoiding any sharp branches; otherwise, it would have been fatal on the spot.
She gently touched the girl’s skull, finding that the damage was surprisingly minor, likely just a concussion. The girl must have been clever; after being struck, she likely protected her head with her hands, absorbing much of the impact. Her spine was also intact, which was amazing.
The girl’s internal injuries were also serious. Her stomach and kidneys were slightly displaced, her lungs were filling with blood, and she was coughing it up unconsciously. For an ordinary passerby, it would have been impossible to save her in the middle of the night. However, Miss Ning was no ordinary person. With a few quick snaps that caused the unconscious girl to grimace in pain, Ning Xiaoxian efficiently set the girl’s broken bones, then extracted the essence of a Century-old Ginseng for her to consume, followed by feeding her several Elixir pills.
With the powerful healing properties of the Spirit Pills, the girl’s internal injuries should stop worsening and gradually begin to heal. But since Spirit Pills are not Immortal Pills, they still need some time to take effect.
Changtian said, "Judging by her clothes, she’s a villager from around here. I hear footsteps half a mile away; it should be her family looking for her. Let’s finish up with her and leave; we still need to hurry on our way."
Ning Xiaoxian replied with a yes. Indeed, in less time than it takes for a pot of tea to brew, a party of people arrived in a hurry, carrying torches.
"It’s just up ahead!" someone shouted loudly.
Seven or eight men squeezed into the small clearing, and upon seeing the scene before them, they were all stunned.
In the middle of the night, how could there be a woman and a white bird standing beside Raji?
Before they could speak up, Ning Xiaoxian asked, "Are you this girl’s family?"
The village leader, not yet fifty years old and ordinarily strong, had personally led the search party for Raji. Hearing her question, he pushed through the crowd and stepped forward, replying, "Indeed. This child went missing in the middle of the night, and we’ve mobilized the whole village to look for her!" He scrutinized Ning Xiaoxian and said, "Miss—This young lady, who are you?" With such a majestic white bird as her companion, she was certainly not an ordinary person, perhaps even an immortal from the legends. His tone naturally became cautious.
Seeing Raji lying there unconscious, not knowing whether she was alive or dead, although unclear about what had happened to the child, this outcome was the best situation for him. Since she couldn’t defend herself in her unconscious state, as soon as the young lady turned to leave, they could take Raji back to the village, where she would be sacrificed to the River God the next morning.
"I’m just a passerby. What is this child’s name?" The little girl’s face had been wiped clean, swollen and bruised beyond recognition from the blow, but her lips were tightly pursed, showing her stubbornness even in this state.
"Raji, her name is Raji, my niece," he answered. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Ning Xiaoxian sighed and said, "Fine, take her back then. She has multiple fractures and some internal injuries, she needs to rest quietly."
The village leader turned and gestured to a thin man. His back was to Ning Xiaoxian, and she did not extend her Divine Sense, so she did not notice. Understanding the signal, the man stepped forward from the crowd and carefully took Raji into his arms.
Carrying about fifty pounds was really not a big deal for these men used to walking in the mountains. Ning Xiaoxian handed a bottle of medicine to the village leader, saying, "When she wakes up, let her take one Elixir pill each day, and she should fully recover within three days."
The village leader thanked her profusely. She simply shrugged her shoulders and leaped onto Qi Zai’s back. White Bird chirped softly, soared into the clouds, and quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
It was only then that the villagers wiped off their cold sweat. The thin man chuckled and said, "Lucky the immortal didn’t notice anything, otherwise a wave of her hand, and we would all be finished here."
The village leader snorted and said, "Nonsense! It’s late; let’s hurry back to the village, we still have to worship the River God tomorrow morning!"
Since they had found Raji, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to head back. After walking for a while, someone congratulated the village leader, "The medicine bestowed by the immortal must be good. You’re really fortunate, village leader."
The village leader chuckled. Raji was to be thrown into the river tomorrow morning, so naturally, he would take the Immortal Elixir for himself without any hesitation. He had also swiftly checked Raji’s injuries a moment earlier; they seemed serious, yet just before, in her golden words, she claimed that after taking the Elixir, the boy would recover in just three days!
This truly must be an Immortal Elixir! (To be continued. If you like this work, please head over to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your recommendation ticket, Monthly Ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
