Chapter 110 Too Ashamed to Show My Face
After passing Huangfeng Ridge, Jiang Feng and his two companions continued westward.
In early spring, all things revive, and along the way, red peach blossoms and green willows, swallows dancing and orioles singing, present a vibrant scene.
After walking for several days, they finally emerged from the mountains.
As they walked, a small river suddenly appeared before them, its clear waters shimmering with a cold light. On the opposite bank, willows cast long, green shadows, and a few thatched huts were faintly visible, forming what appeared to be a village.
Looking further into the distance, a city can be vaguely seen, with magnificent and solemn buildings that appear very prosperous.
Jiang Feng stopped on the shore, gazing at the distant city and sighed, "Finally, I can see a human kingdom again. It's not easy!"
If I stay in the mountains any longer, I feel like I'm turning into a wild man.
Bai Suzhen recalled what had happened that morning and couldn't help but complain, "No wild man is as unruly as you. This is the first time I've ever seen someone forcibly act as a matchmaker for two tigers. I can't believe you did it."
Jiang Feng argued, "Spring has arrived, and it's the breeding season for animals. I'm acting out of compassion, helping them maintain their species. This is an immense act of merit!"
Bai Suzhen took a deep breath: "I didn't see any merit, but I know those two tigers were both male!"
Jiang Feng was stunned: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! I, Jiang Feng, have been a matchmaker since I was eight years old. How could I not even be able to tell the gender of my clients?"
And when we left, didn't the two tiger cubs become very affectionate?
Bai Suzhen rolled her eyes: "They're just huddled together because you scared them!"

Jiang Feng stood there blankly, muttering "Impossible, shouldn't be" over and over, just as he was questioning his existence, when Sha Wujing brought over some water in his alms bowl.
"Master, this river water is so sweet, you should try some!"
Jiang Feng snapped out of his daze and listlessly shook his head, saying, "Wujing, you drink it yourself. I just want to be alone right now."
Sha Wujing gulped down the water, took his alms bowl, and went to the ferry. He shouted loudly towards a small boat in the middle of the river, "Boatman, we're crossing!"
Before long, the small boat rocked and swayed as it arrived at the ferry dock.
The boatman wore a brocade turban and black silk shoes. He was dressed in a patchwork cotton jacket and a thousand-stitched cloth blouse.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a middle-aged woman.
Sha Wujing glanced at her in surprise, but didn't ask any questions. He paid the fare to cross the river, and the group boarded the boat one after another. Soon, the boatman took them to the other side.
After disembarking, Jiang Feng walked towards the tavern at the entrance of the village, ordered two side dishes, and inquired about the surrounding area from the tavern owner.
"Boss lady, where is this place? And what is that city ahead?"
The proprietress's almond-shaped eyes sparkled with interest, all her attention fixed on Jiang Feng's face: "This is the Western Liang Women's Kingdom. Our country is entirely populated by women; there are no men, much less a handsome man like you~"
As she spoke, the proprietress, her face flushed like a peach blossom, reached out a hand to touch Jiang Feng's cheek. Just as she was about to touch him, Bai Suzhen slapped her hand away, only then noticing that there was a woman in white beside him.
Feeling the pain on the back of her hand, the proprietress snapped back to reality and quickly apologized, "I hardly see any men all year round, and I couldn't control myself for a moment. I was being presumptuous, and I hope you won't take offense."
Jiang Feng said, "Oh, so we've arrived at the Kingdom of Women. Luckily, we didn't drink the water from the Mother-Child River."
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Sha Wujing with a shocked expression: "Wujing, where did you fill your alms bowl with water before?"
Sha Wujing, puzzled, frowned and asked, "They're in the river at the village entrance, what's wrong with that?"
Jiang Feng stared at his stomach for a while with a complicated expression, then rummaged through his treasure pouch and pulled out two books.
"Wujing, take these two Buddhist scriptures and study them carefully."
Sha Wujing, looking on with curiosity, said, "Master, you actually want to pass on Buddhist teachings to me? This is the first time since Pangu created the world!"
As he spoke, he took the two Buddhist scriptures, glanced at them, and was immediately stunned.
Neither of the two scriptures is very thick; one is the "Buddha's Discourse on Pregnancy Care" and the other is the "Buddha's Discourse on Prenatal Education".
"Master, are these two scriptures of yours legitimate?"
Sha Wujing stared wide-eyed at the two Buddhist scriptures in his hands and couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering him.
Jiang Feng's eyes showed pity: "Never mind whether he's upright or not, as long as he's useful to you."
"How could this thing possibly work on me? — Ouch, Master, my stomach hurts!"
Sha Wujing clutched his stomach, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, looking extremely pained.
"Don't be afraid, I have plenty of experience with this kind of thing."
Jiang Feng gently comforted her, "Relax first, take deep breaths. I'll find you a place to stay later. You'll lie in bed for three days, and then you'll be able to give birth smoothly."
Sha Wujing: "???"
The proprietress, who was standing nearby, also noticed the problem and explained, "The river at the entrance of the village is called the Mother-Child River. After drinking the water from the river, you will feel abdominal pain and feel pregnant. After three days, you will give birth to the child."
"You drank the water from the Mother-Child River, and it has become fetal energy in your belly; you will give birth soon."
Sha Wujing's expression changed drastically: "How can a man like me have a child?"
Jiang Feng said with a look of sympathy, "That child probably crawled out of your side through a hole, just like when Buddha was born."
"Wujing, don't worry. I am extremely skilled at suturing flesh and skin. I guarantee you won't have any scars."
Sha Wujing said anxiously, "What I'm worried about is whether it will leave a scar! Master, you must think of a solution quickly! If I, the dignified General of the Curtain, were to have a child, I would be too ashamed to face anyone!"
Jiang Feng laughed and said, "Wujing, don't panic, your master has plenty of ways!"
Sha Wujing quickly asked, "What method? Master, please tell me!"
Jiang Feng took out a mask and handed it to Sha Wujing: "Put this on, and you won't have to worry about being too ashamed to show your face!"
Sha Wujing:
'
Damn it, the Bodhisattva told me to put the golden headband on you, and it really wasn't wrong about it!
Seeing Sha Wujing's murderous expression, Jiang Feng stopped joking and asked the landlady, "Landlady, where is the Abortion Spring? I'll go get him a bowl of spring water to drink."
The proprietress looked at Jiang Feng with surprise and said, "Thirty miles to the south, there is a mountain called Jieyang Mountain. In the mountain, there is a broken cave with a spring called the Abortion Spring. Just drink a mouthful of water from that spring, and you can get rid of the miscarriage."
Two years ago, a Taoist priest came, claiming to be the True Immortal Ruyi. He transformed the dilapidated cave into the Juxian Nunnery, protecting the Abortion Spring water and refusing to give it away easily. Those seeking the water had to offer flowers, wine, and fruit as gifts, showing sincere devotion, before he would sell a bowl of water at a high price.
Some people disagreed with him and went to reason with him, but he chased them all away. If you go to buy water, prepare your money beforehand to avoid making a wasted trip.
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Thank you for telling me, ma'am. I'll have to trouble you to look after my apprentice for a while. We'll be right back."
With that, he stood up and headed towards Jieyang Mountain with Bai Suzhen.
