Ayun was born in Daliang Mountain. She is a female Bimo rarely seen in a century in the millennium heritage of the Yi people. She is proficient in ancient Yi script, can solve the mysteries of nature, and has plain hands. She can not only recite scriptures to appease the souls of the dead, but also use herbs to compete with the God of Death.
In 1986, with an order, an engineering unit was stationed in the mountain, breaking the tranquility of the ancient village. Rumors spread in the family's courtyard that the people in the mountains were ignorant and believed in ghosts and gods. Until the dean's "golden doll" had a high fever, new medicines were ineffective, and everyone was helpless, Ayun was invited into the modern world full of the smell of disinfectant.
"Feudal superstition!" Lu Zheng, an ascetic officer with an upright posture and shining epaulettes, shouted coldly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
Ayun just smiled indifferently and lit the herbs in her hand. In the smoke, her cold voice seemed to carry mysterious power: "Comrade of the People's Liberation Army, if you believe it, you will have it, if you don't believe it, you will not have it. But the child only has one life."
Later, this officer who had discipline engraved in his bones always knocked on her bamboo house late at night.
"Ayun, I can't sleep."
"Captain Lu, you have a heart problem, and my herbal medicine can't cure it."
But he pushed her against the door step by step, his hot breath burning her ears, and his voice was hoarse: "You are a good healer, you are my medicine... My Lord Bimo."
