Chapter 228 Take It Back
"What do you mean, Taoist priest?" Old Lady Yang asked anxiously. Her weather-beaten face was wrinkled, and her eyes were full of doubt and worry.
"Was your daughter able to take out food, vegetables, meat and other things from somewhere at that time?" The Taoist priest looked serious, staring at Old Lady Yang, and asked again.
Hearing this, Old Lady Yang was struck by lightning. Her body trembled violently. She subconsciously put her hand over her heart, and her lips trembled involuntarily. After a long while, she lowered her voice and asked tremblingly: "How...how did you know this?"
The Taoist priest stroked his beard and said slowly, "Your little girl was born in a time of famine. Fortunately, she got a magical bag of treasures by chance. The bag is filled with all kinds of supplies, including a lot of food, vegetables, meat and other necessities of life. I believe these are gifts from God to help your family get through that difficult time."
"But, the famine has been over for so many years! Does it still matter now?" Li, who was standing aside, couldn't help but interrupt. She also looked confused and didn't understand why the Taoist priest suddenly brought up this matter.
The Taoist priest shook his head slightly and explained patiently: "It is true that the famine has passed for a long time, but since you did not use up all the items in the treasure bag at that time, it still remains with your girl. This seemingly ordinary treasure bag actually contains huge energy and secrets. If you cannot handle it properly, I am afraid it will bring you unexpected troubles in the future."
"What kind of trouble is this?" Li asked anxiously, with deep worry in her eyes.
Old Mrs. Yang at the side also quickly agreed: "Yes, will there be any danger to his life?" She clenched her hands tightly, and her palms were full of sweat.
At this time, Li Dashan, who had been silent all the time, could no longer suppress his anxiety and asked, "Master, do you have any way to resolve this crisis?" He looked at the Taoist priest eagerly, hoping to get a reassuring answer from him.
The Taoist priest just shook his head slowly and said softly: "There is no need to resolve it. Now the items in the treasure bag have been used up. This time he fell into the water because his fate with the treasure bag has come to an end. The bag needs to be taken back, so he fell into the water." After saying that, he sighed slightly.
"Are you going to take it back so soon?" Li's face was full of astonishment, as if she couldn't believe what she heard.
Old Lady Yang was more concerned about her granddaughter's situation, and asked quickly: "What impact will it have on my dear granddaughter after the treasure bag is taken back?" Her voice trembled slightly, revealing her inner uneasiness.
After pondering for a moment, the Taoist priest replied, "There will definitely be some impact, but the impact will not be too great. But the matter of the treasure bag must not be publicized too much, and it must not be mentioned again from now on. Otherwise, whoever mentions this matter will encounter unexpected events, and it may even affect her lifespan. Moreover, the person who mentions this matter will be in danger of his life. So, you must all keep it in mind." After hearing this, everyone nodded solemnly.
"I know, I know. Our family will definitely not talk about the treasure bag." Old Mrs. Yang nodded repeatedly in response, her face full of seriousness and earnestness.
"Yes, yes, yes, we will definitely not tell anyone a word. This is a matter concerning my Xiaocao'er's life!" Yang Dashan agreed hurriedly.
Li beside him also quickly followed suit and said, "Of course, this matter concerns Xiao Cao'er's life and death, we will definitely keep it a secret."
At this time, Sanmao, who had been listening to the conversation silently, couldn't hold back his temper and suddenly interrupted and asked: "Master, besides this, is there anything else that needs special attention? When will my Xiaocao be able to fully recover?" He looked at the Taoist priest anxiously, his eyes full of concern.
The Taoist priest thought for a moment and replied, "There's not much to be concerned about, but we still need to pay more attention to her physical condition. After all, she got a serious illness after falling into the water."
Hearing this, Qi Xingyun, who had been standing by without saying anything, quickly interrupted and said, "Then can you see if she has a chronic illness? Can you prescribe a prescription to help her recover?"
"Yes, yes, yes, we must help my Xiaocao to take good care of herself! She is a girl. What if she gets sick because of falling into the water this time? What shall I do in the future?" The more Old Mrs. Yang thought about it, the more worried she became. There was a hint of tears in her voice and her eyes began to turn red.
"That's easy. I'll write a prescription for her later. You can go to the clinic and get some medicine for her to take for a while, then go find a doctor to take her pulse and see how she's doing." The Taoist priest responded readily.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Old Lady Yang's mind. She thought that usually when people encountered such things, they would ask Taoist priests to perform rituals in order to eliminate the disaster and solve the problem.
