Chapter 407: Death from Meridians Burst
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Qin Guang had barely taken two steps forward when his body stiffened violently. Then, a large amount of blood gushed out from his mouth and nose. His eyes rolled back as he passed out.
“Sect Master!!” Hurriedly stepping forward to support Qin Guang’s body, Dr. An shouted, “Quick! Bring me the antidote elixir! Go and invite Elder Su over!”
When the attendants heard this, they rushed out in a hurry.
Half an hour later, the three of them arrived at the kitchen.
The chefs of the kitchen lived in the courtyard behind the kitchen. At this moment, the three of them had just stepped into the door of the courtyard when an indescribable smell suddenly surged over them. A combination of various unpleasant odors mixed with the scent of blood. It was the kind of deathly smell that would only be presented on someone who had been paralyzed for years.
Su Qian raised her hand and waved, dispersing the odors in front of her. “Where are the people?”
“This way, Elder Su.” Qing Zhu led Su Qian forward with familiarity. Finally, they stopped in front of a door and pushed it open.
Fortunately, Xiao Yan had prepared in advance. As soon as the door swung open, he raised his hand, and a burst of energy rushed into the room, dissipating the foul air within.
The chefs were all sleeping in this large room. At this moment, there were a total of eight chefs, more than ten apprentices, along with Chef Steward. They were all lying on the bed with miserable expressions. They twisted their bodies in pain, and their mouths kept emitting cried of agony.
Su Qian took a closer look and saw that these people had developed numerous purplish-res pustules on their bodies. The surface of these pustules was soft, and a gentle press would cause them to burst with a splattering sound, releasing a shallow yellowish and foul-smelling pus.
Not to mention the fact that these people were also experiencing continuous vomiting and diarrhea, with blood oozing from their mouths and noses. A row of people lay together, and they all looked like they were on the verge of death. It was obvious that if they didn’t receive treatment, they wouldn’t survive.
“Why is the situation here so much more serious than in the Elder’s Pavilion?” Qing Zhu asked in shock as he looked at the scene before him.
Hearing Qing Zhu’s words, Xiao Yan’s eyes remained indifferent, devoid of any ripples. He only coldly swept Qing Zhu a glance, his tone so cold that it seemed like it was about to freeze, “The elders in the Elder’s Pavilion have physicians to attend to them, and there are antidotes to alleviate the symptoms. But these people have nothing.”
Qing Zhu raised his eyes in shock. He glanced at Xiao Yan with a complicated gaze, as though he had something to say. However, after opening his mouth, he swallowed the words that he had yet to say and ultimately chose to remain silent.
Meanwhile, Su Qian briskly stepped forward and raised her hand to seal one of their acupuncture points. “Do you two understand acupoints? If you do, help me seal the Longtan, Baixuan, Tandong, and Xinfu four major acupoints.”
Xiao Yan and Qing Zhu obediently approached. Their hands moved quickly as they followed Su Qian and sealed the acupuncture points of these people.
Miraculously, after these four acupoints were sealed, the bleeding and vomiting symptoms of the chefs, who had been constantly coughing up blood, came to a halt. Even the symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea showed significant relief.
Looking at this scene in shock, Qing Zhu couldn’t help but exclaim, “Elder Su, you’re really too amazing!”
Su Qian, however, only glanced at Qing Zhu with a calm demeanor, indifferent to the praise. “Don’t be happy too soon. After sealing these acupoints, it only temporarily locks the toxin. If we don’t completely clear the poison within an hour, their meridians will burst due to poor blood circulation, and they will die..”
