Seeking Herbal Sachets at Gutian Linshui Temple: Auntie Immortal's Herbal Class

"Will Auntie Chen Jing give me an injection?" Duoduo stared nervously at the herbal cabinet in front of the deity statue. The temple caretaker smiled as she hung a sachet: "This is the 'Twelve Herbs Sachet' for peace and safety. Take a sniff—" The little girl took a deep breath: "It smells like sun-dried blankets!" Old Chen muttered while studying the divination poem: "What does 'Reflecting Flowers in the Water' mean?" Meanwhile, Duoduo pestered the herbal apprentice to teach her how to pound mugwort: "I want to make an elixir to revive dinosaurs!" In the herb drying yard, she arranged Atractylodes in the shape of a constellation: "This is the Big Dipper that eats herbs!" When the sachet-seeking ceremony began, the little one suddenly sat upright and imitated the devotees by bowing three times. The divination interpreter teased her: "The goddess says you need to eat three bowls of rice tonight!" Duoduo stomped her feet in frustration: "But I drank bitter herbal tea to be a good girl!" As dusk fell, she held the herbal sachet and headed home. Duoduo had a sudden thought: "If I plant the sachet in the soil, will it grow into a herbal doll?" At the moment the palace lanterns lit up, the ancient cypress behind her rustled in agreement.
