The woman said nothing and just looked at him with a smile. She held a Chinese yam in her left hand and a celery in her right hand. The yam and celery were considered to be vegetables and also traditional Chinese medicine.
Ning Que suddenly laughed and asked, "Are you the legendary Medicine Buddha?"
The woman answered with a smile, "Yes."
Ning Que thought for a while and said, "The Medicine Buddha can cure diseases. My wife is seriously ill and she may be poisoned, would you take a look at her and write us a prescription?"
The woman looked at Sangsang and replied with grief, "The poison is incurable. And it would be better for you to leave."
Ning Que pointed to the sky and asked, "What if we can't leave?"
The woman answered, "Death is a solution."
"You do have a point," Ning said with a smile. Then he took out his iron cutlass and swung it at the woman standing behind the vegetable stall.
