3023 Clothes Woven From Peach Tree Bark
Upon hearing this, the old woman turned her head and looked at Feng Jiu, then said: “Because this place is called Peach Village.”
What kind of answer was that? Although it sounded right, it wasn’t the answer she was seeking. She felt that it wasn’t only because of the name Peach Village. The peach tree itself warded evil spirits, coupled with the strangeness of this village, it would be strange if the people who lived here didn’t know this.
However, it was obvious that the old woman didn’t want to say any more, so she had no choice but to stop asking.
“It’s here.” The old woman opened the door and went inside saying: “It is just an old couple living here, come in!” As she spoke, the old woman stepped inside first, then after she went inside, she said: “Old Lady Li, a few Immortals passed by and said they can cure you, so I brought them over to take a look at you.”
“You can go in! I will go back first.” The old woman said, then she walked out.
Feng Jiu and the others walked in, and when they came to the inner room, they saw an old woman lying on the bed and an old man who was being busy in the room. They stepped forward and greeted them.
“Old Lady, where did you hurt yourself?” Feng Jiu asked.
After the two old people sized her up, they pointed to her feet: “I hurt my leg.”
Feng Jiu stepped forward and took a look. When she saw medicine wrapped around her ankle, she wiped off the medicine. She saw that it was only her hamstring that had been injured, so she took out some medicine and applied it, then she wrapped a fresh bandage around it and said: “It’s just a hamstring injury, it’s nothing serious. It will be fine in two days after applying the medicine.”
As she spoke, she asked at the same time: “How did Old Lady fall down?”
“I was pushed by those things.” The old woman said, she looked at them: “It happens here all the time. We are used to it.”
boxn ov el. c o mFeng Jiu chuckled lightly: “How did Old Lady know that you were pushed by those things? If it was really those things, they probably won’t push you!”
“Hehe, and you say you are an Immortal. Don’t you know? The dirty things here don’t dare to come close, and even if they do, they don’t dare to touch us.” The old woman laughed. She continued speaking while she lay on the bed: “Here, those who often fall down or fall out of bed probably won’t live very much longer.”
“Why do you say that?” Feng Jiu was a little surprised.
“Because they are low on their luck, and on top of those things causing trouble, even if they don’t die, they will be tortured to death. Old Lady me doesn’t think she will live for many more days.” Her tone was light, as if she was talking about other people’s affairs, without any fear.
“You people from the outside world wonder why those dirty things don’t dare to touch us or come near here? Old Lady will tell you today, it is because of the peach trees that have been planted in our village. Peach trees ward off evil spirits. Ordinary dirty things don’t dare to approach, and although there are some powerful ones, we are also not afraid because we all wear clothes made of peach tree bark!”
When they heard this, the three of them were slightly surprised. Clothes made of peach tree bark?
“This was many years ago, when an old Immortal told us to plant the peach trees. Firstly, the peaches can be eaten, secondly, it can ward off evil spirits, and thirdly, it is also beautiful to look at. The old Immortal also taught us how to weave clothes with the bark peeled off from the branches. Everyone in each household has one piece.”
After hearing this, they finally understood. Feng Jiu said goodbye, then turned around and left, returning to the old hut the old woman had arranged for them to rest in.
“Peach bark woven into clothes, I wonder what sect this Immortal Person is from?” The middle-aged man said with a bit of regret.
