Chapter 177: Teaching the Tribe to Make Mosquito‑Repelling Flower Dew Water

~6 min read 1,149 words

"Shut up, I won't save you; a heart that harms others must not exist. You've crossed the line and are unfit to be a member of the Ying Tribe. Axi, get her out."

"Nan Qinghuan is right; if you dare harm our tribe members you deserve to die. Leave."

Axi's body is fine now, so she can help Nan Qinghuan even more. She used to be soft‑tempered and timid, but ever since she followed Nan Qinghuan her courage has grown.

Nan Qinghuan is right; a woman must constantly strengthen herself to earn others' favor.

Although she didn't understand or comprehend at the time, now there's no problem at all.

Women, men—both are what Nan Qinghuan said.

After A Hong was taken away by tribe members, Youchao Xuan hurried from outside, "Goddess, are you asleep?"

"Youchao Xuan, it's so late and you're still not resting?"

Youchao Xuan's wound has healed; he came together with Jingang. Jingang entered the Cave, saw the Iron‑Eating Beast beside her, and instantly became jealous.

It cheerfully ran to Nan Qinghuan, crouched slightly to curry favor; Nan Qinghuan was speechless and had to admit that Jingang is very clingy.

She gently stroked Jingang's head, only to discover… what a huge head louse!

While pulling the louse from Jingang, she looked up and said, "You speak, I'm listening."

Jingang relished the treatment, being extremely obedient; the Iron‑Eating Beast, seeing such a massive creature, trembled and dared not approach.

Youchao Xuan found it amusing; in his eyes, the Goddess was truly beautiful.

"I was just surveying the terrain when that Shiva came at me like a madwoman, couldn't be driven away, insisted I give her medicine. How should I deal with her? I want to find Ying; he went to gather the tribe to prepare tomorrow's tree‑cutting and house‑building site selection, and he'll be busy tonight, so I came to you."

"Site selection—Ying will select the site?"

Youchao Xuan nodded. "We'll discuss this later; Ying is smarter than I imagined, but what about that old woman? She's now inside my Cave and won't leave. I can't rest, and no tribe member dares to fetch her out. Goddess, help me think of a solution."

"Drive her out, or have Jingang drive her out."

"Impossible; we tried and couldn't drive her away. She wails at the Cave Entrance. She's a Shiva within the tribe, and I'm an outsider; I can't have Jingang kill her, can I?"

Since arriving at the Ying Tribe, Youchao Xuan has strictly followed the Tribe Rules, except for one thing: he unconditionally believes the Goddess Nan Qinghuan. She is the destined Heaven's Daughter, the only female he will follow in this life.

So he believes everything she says, and facts have proven her words true!

She said that close siblings cannot marry, as it would produce disabled tribe members; he has already witnessed this within the tribe, and indeed it is so, and… Upon hearing Youchao Xuan's words, Nan Qinghuan also realized that the old woman seemed to be waiting for her. She knew that Shigu coming to find her would not have a good outcome, so she went to trouble Youchao Xuan.

This Youchao Xuan is an innocent youth; he can't endure the torment of an old woman.

She pinched the last louse off Jingang's head, then looked at them and said, "Go, I'll help you drive her out. This also counts as settling the final account, the last task of clearing the gate before we build the new house."

"Settle the final account?"

Dawn light barely appeared, and golden light suddenly flashed.

When Nan Qinghuan and Youchao Xuan arrived at Youchao Xuan's dwelling, they heard Shiva wailing from deep within the Cave, "I'm itching to death! Anyone? Old man, come save me!"

"Oumu, why did you come?"

As they arrived, they saw Dashan walking out of the Cave; Nan Qinghuan frowned, "Why are you here?"

"Ying told me to take this old thing out, but she's covered in rashes so I dare not; I was still wondering how to avoid touching her and throw her to the Wolf Pack."

Nan Qinghuan inhaled sharply, "Throw her to the Wolf Pack?"

"That old woman deserves it; who made her a traitor?"

Dropping that remark, Dashan was helpless; they knew the old woman was covered in red rashes, but how to bring her out? "Goddess, it seems Ying this time wants to clear the gate; why not let Dashan take her away? We…"

"Nan Qinghuan, Nan Qinghuan…"

Inside the Cave, Shiva heard her voice and immediately rushed out. Upon seeing Shiva, Nan Qinghuan couldn't help but gasp, "What the—"

The old woman's red marks were terrifying, spreading across her face.

It was truly shocking.

"Nan Qinghuan, save me, save me…"

Shiva, upon seeing her, suddenly knelt. She was no longer the once radiant Shiva; now tormented by illness she could not think, only pleading with Nan Qinghuan for help.

"Save her!"

Seeing Shiva beg for mercy, Dashan sneered, "Shiva, your day has come; you needn't beg Oumu. Shigu colluded with Rongdi and betrayed the tribe; he's already dead. Now it's your turn. Whether your illness is cured or not doesn't matter. I am following Ying's command to take you to the Wolf Pack."

"What? The old man is dead? No way. You, Dashan, don't try to deceive me. Why would Ying kill us, why?"

Shiva had just been complaining, "Why hasn't the old man returned?" Turns out he died? "Why, you know yourselves—Oumu, she's covered in eczema; what should I do to take her away?"

Nan Qinghuan smiled, "Don't worry; although this eczema is contagious, you're fine now, you can touch her, and I will immediately make a kind of anti‑mosquito and insect bite Flower Dew Water."

"Flower Dew Water?"

This is something fresh; Dashan was still somewhat afraid of being infected by Shiva. Hearing he could now touch her, he lifted Shiva with a strong hand, like carrying a chick, "Old woman, come with me."

"Let go of me! Do you know how powerful my mother tribe is, Nan Qinghuan? If you want to build houses you still rely on our mother tribe for timber. You cannot kill me, no."

"Rely on your mother tribe? Looks like you're still dreaming. Last night A Da and his group already came; they clearly cut ties with you. Shiva, just wait to be slowly bitten by wild wolves. Dashan, take her."

"Yes."

"Nan Qinghuan, you will face retribution, retribution."

Shiva kept cursing her; Youchao Xuan's teeth were chattering, "Goddess, let me seal her mouth."

Nan Qinghuan was indifferent, "If curses worked, the world would be chaotic. Let her keep cursing. By the way, come with me, and also bring Axi and A Mu; I'll teach you how to make Flower Dew Water."

Hearing her, Youchao Xuan was puzzled, furrowed his brows, and asked, "Goddess, what is Flower Dew Water?"
