Xiaomu was afraid that the rope could not bear the weight of the two people, so he asked Xiaoying to climb up first, and he would follow. Xiaoying smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will take up the rope and leave you alone after I climb up?"

Xiaomu smiled and said, "Then I will never talk to you again in the future." Xiaoying smiled sweetly at him, tied one end of the rope around her waist, and lightly jumped onto the cliff with her feet. Her body was as light as a floating leaf and her posture was as beautiful as a dancing butterfly.

Not long after, the rope was lowered from the top of the cliff. Xiaomu's left arm was broken and he could not use force, so he took a lot of effort to tie the rope tightly. It took him twice as long as Xiaoying to reach the top of the cliff.

When they returned to the colorful house, it was already evening. Flower Fairy and Xiaoxuan were sitting in the house waiting. Xiaoying told them the general situation of picking herbs and falling off the cliff, but she omitted the process of Chu Xiaomu hugging her when he fell off the cliff, and only glared at him fiercely to protest.

The flower fairy said, "I'm glad you're okay. We were so worried." She asked Xiaoxuan to get some herbs, mash them and apply them to Chu Xiaomu's broken bone. She then took two straight wooden sticks to clamp the broken arm and tied it up. She said to him, "Take good care of it. It will heal in half a month." After applying the herbs on his arm, Chu Xiaomu immediately felt cool and comfortable, and the pain was greatly reduced.

Xiaoying took out the golden bird's nest and put it on the table. The flower fairy said, "You are lucky. You have collected four golden bird's nests in half a day. It is enough to treat a person's lung injury." She then explained the method of using the medicine in detail twice and asked Chu Xiaomu to take notes carefully.

After dinner, the few of them chatted for a while, and the flower fairy asked Chu Xiaomu to sleep in Xiaoying's bed tonight, have a good rest, and go down the cliff tomorrow morning. When Chu Xiaomu heard that he had to sleep in Xiaoying's bed, he refused to agree no matter what, and Xiaoying also protested loudly and refused to give in.

Xiaoxuan said, "Don't think Xiaoying is mean to you. She is actually very kind-hearted. She would be sad for several days if a butterfly died." Then she smiled and said, "She is only mean to you."

Xiaoying blushed and said, "Sister Xiaoxuan, what nonsense are you talking about? I won't talk to you anymore..." and hurried into the inner hall.

Chu Xiaomu was confused: "What do you mean you are only aggressive towards me? Is being aggressive good?"

After the three girls left, Chu Xiaomu found a rattan bench outside the house and slept on it all night in his clothes. He was too tired during the day, so he fell asleep as soon as he lay down and slept very soundly.

The next morning, the flower fairy handed the three golden bird's nests picked by Xiaoying to Chu Xiaomu, and explained the method of using the medicine to him again to prevent him from remembering it wrongly.

After saying this, he told him to go down the cliff and return to the village.

Chu Xiaomu was worried that Bai Yixing was seriously injured, and he didn't want all his hard work of the past few days to go to waste, so he walked very fast after descending the cliff, traveling day and night, and returned to the village in less than four days.

At that time, Bai Yixing's pale face was covered with a layer of black air, and his injuries became more serious. If he was not treated, he would not be able to survive. Xiaomu did not dare to delay for a moment. He followed the method taught by the Flower Fairy and carefully baked the two golden bird's nests over a low fire. After they were completely dry, he ground them into powder. He also asked Huai Fucao for seven or eight kinds of medicines such as aconite, monkshood, and lithospermum officinale, and boiled them into a ten-day dose for Bai Yixing to take.

After asking the spirit of Huaifucao, his energy was almost exhausted. He looked listless and extremely weak. He couldn't get out of bed. Fortunately, he was still conscious. When Chu Xiaomu took the medicine, he explained clearly which medicine belonged to which category and was placed where, which two medicines were particularly similar and needed to be carefully distinguished, which one should be used as the whole plant and which one should be sliced ​​or ground into powder. He was afraid that Xiaomu would make a mistake and end up hurting people instead of saving them.

Chu Xiaomu took out a cup of golden bird's nest and gave it to Huai Fucao, saying, "Uncle Huai, this is the magic medicine that can cure Bai Yixing's lung injury. It's called golden bird's nest. I'll give this cup to you."

Huai Fucao was so shocked that he was speechless. He sat up from the bed and said, "This... this... is the golden bird's nest? It is recorded in the book that the golden bird's nest has both wood and fire spirits and is of pure yang nature. It can be regarded as a miracle medicine for treating lung injuries and lung diseases. Whether it is weak lungs, chest tightness and shortness of breath, or air blockage, coughing up phlegm and blood... no matter what difficult and complicated diseases, they can be cured with this medicine."

"Even if the entire lung is accidentally cut off, as long as you eat the golden bird's nest, maybe you can grow a new one..." He held the golden bird's nest in the palm of his hand, looked at it and smelled it, and couldn't let it go. His body seemed to have recovered a lot.

When asked where Chu Xiaomu picked the lamps, Chu Xiaomu lied that he had climbed up the cliff with great effort and picked them from a big tree on the west side of the cliff top under the guidance of the spirit. He picked three lamps in total, gave two to Bai Yixing, and used the remaining one to honor your Uncle Huai.

Huai Fu Cao asked, "Why don't you pick more? The more the better. If the golden swallow flies away, it will rot soon. Isn't it a waste?"

Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "I spent two days to find only three. If such a good medicine is everywhere, then it wouldn't be that rare."

Huai Fucao thought about it and it made sense. He sighed and said, "It's a waste to use such a good magic medicine to treat the people of Snow Country. One lamp would be enough. Why use two? What a pity, what a pity..." Chu Xiaomu laughed secretly after hearing this.

Before leaving, Huai Fucao stopped Xiaomu and said, "You learned the art of asking spirits from me, and you owe me so much money for medicine. Uncle Huai has suffered a little loss, so this golden bird's nest can be used as payment." Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "This golden bird's nest is for you. I will make up for the money for medicine later."

After Bai Yixing took the medicine, he gradually recovered. On the third day, he no longer coughed up blood and could get out of bed and walk a little. On the seventh day, his chest no longer hurt and he no longer felt short of breath. He was just panting a little, thinking that the wound was not completely healed. Chu Liang, Chu Xiaomu, and Qin Gang were all very happy to see that the medicine had cured him.

Bai Yixing lived in Chu Xiaomu's house for more than ten days. Chu Liang and Chu Xiaomu treated him like a relative and served him wholeheartedly every day without getting tired of it.

By the tenth day, the prepared medicine had been used up and Bai Yixing had almost recovered.

One day, Qin Gang brought a boatman over and said that he wanted to take Bai Yixing away to live with other people from the Snow Country and also to discuss the matter of repairing the boat.

Bai Yixing pulled Chu Xiaomu's hand and said, "Xiaomu, thanks to you, I am able to save my life. When we repair the boat, I will definitely take you to the Snow Country. Just tell me what you want to eat or buy."

Chu Xiaomu shook his head and said, "Brother, what are you talking about? Helping those in need is our ancestral motto on Baihua Island. No matter who is in trouble, as long as we meet them, we will do our best to help them. As for going to the Snow Country, let's not talk about it. I'm more comfortable on our Baihua Island."
