Baby Zetty suddenly came to a realization and exclaimed, “Oh! I almost made a mistake.”
Baby Zetty had a straightforward personality, so she was easily deceived. Fortunately for her, Gale had a meticulous mind and could continuously remind Baby Zetty at any time to never stop being vigilant.
“But we don’t know how to get to Sacred Land.”
Gale asked, “Did Mister happen to leave you some sort of treasure? Perhaps there’s information on Sacred Land?”
Baby Zetty quickly took out the pillow from her belly again and extracted three books from it. She said, “These are the books that Mister left behind for me.”
Gale said, “Flip through them.”
Baby Zetty flipped through them seriously.
Finally, she uncovered six maps on the cover of the three books. Baby Zetty lifted the books and said, “Perhaps these maps will show us the way to Sacred Land?”
Gale frowned as he looked at the pillow made from imitation human skin.
Baby Zetty had to tie it to her stomach every day to protect it, making it look like she had a potbelly. It also increased Baby Zetty’s difficulty in walking.
“Can you memorize the contents of these books?”
Baby Zetty replied, “Yes.”
Gale said, “Then burn them so you won’t have to be worried about them anymore. Aren’t you tired of walking with them?”
Baby Zetty could not bear to part with them and said, “No way. I haven’t digested a lot of the knowledge inside.”
Gale merely sighed.
The two took out the maps, pieced the pieces together, and ultimately found a road to Sacred Land.
It was just that when they arrived at a place where humans were, it was as if they had come to a land filled with people who stuck out like a sore thumb.
The villager looked at Baby Zetty suspiciously and asked, “Are you a doctor?”
Baby Zetty said, “At my age, I probably have much more life experiences than you, so maybe I can tell what disease it is?”
The villager was willing to try everything as he was in a desperate situation, so he took Baby Zetty into his wife’s room.
The room was extremely dark, and there was a pungent stench. Since it was a peasant household, they did not have the resources nor the labor to properly take care of patients.
However, Baby Zetty was originally the daughter of a wealthy family. When she saw the patient’s miserable state, she could not help but feel extremely sad. Tears started flowing uncontrollably.
Gale tightened his grasp on her hand, and Baby Zetty managed to restrain her sorrowful state of mind. When she walked over to the man’s wife, she stretched her hand out to test her pulse. Then, Gale abruptly said to the villager, “Uncle, how far is this place from the market?”
Baby Zetty was surprised. Gale was indeed an intelligent child, after all. He was deliberately trying to distract the villager’s attention so that she could fully use her skills on this lady.
She opened the woman’s eyelids, rechecked her pulse, and could generally tell that this woman had acute kidney failure.
