Chapter 171: Someone Gives You a Pillow When You’re Sleepy
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As a modern medical practitioner, Liu Shimei did not completely trust Zhong Lang’s breathing and heartbeat. She pressed on Zhong Lang’s carotid artery and said, “He’s a little weak. 1 can feel that he’s still alive.”
“Eh?” Qi Yang looked at her with admiration and said with a smile, “The more I think about it, the more 1 feel that with Disciple’s ability, other than the Nine-Nine Soul-Sucking Needle Formation, there’s nothing else I can teach you!”
“Master, why are you so humble?” Liu Shimei smiled faintly and said, “Now, let’s begin the teaching of the Nine-Nine Soul-Sucking Needle Formation!” “Alright!” Qi Yang said readily. “I’ll do the acupuncture first. Watch carefully!” He unbuttoned Zhong Lang’s clothes, took out his needle bag, and lined it up. A pair of hands that had been well maintained with medicine skillfully selected silver needles and inserted them into the acupuncture point on Zhong Lang’s heart.
“I’ve already found a craftsman to make this set of silver needles according to the size. Just treat it as a gift from me to you after now that you’re my disciple. However, we won’t get it so quickly. It would probably take another seven to eight days.”
That day, he was in a hurry to serve tea and did not give any gifts.
Liu Shimei’s beautiful eyes instantly lit up. “Then I’ll accept it without hesitation. Thank you, Master!”
Silver needles were a necessity, and she had long planned to make one. However, because she had never learned systematic acupuncture in modern times, she was not sure what size she wanted, so she had been waiting and watching.
Now, someone was giving her a pillow when she was sleepy!
“You’ll learn from me these few days,” Qi Yang said.
He was already quite familiar with the technique. As he spoke, he placed 39 needles and 27 needles on Zhong Lang’s chest. After forming a geometric shape, he pinched the longest needle and flicked it. With a hum, he successfully formed the formation.
“This is the Heart Protection Formation.” Qi Yang took a booklet from the table and handed it to Liu Shimei. “You can study it.”
Naturally, the acupuncture points were written clearly in the booklet.
Combining medical knowledge and modern physics, Liu Shimei understood the origin of the magnetic field.
She had the foundation of medical skills and modern scientific knowledge, so it was not difficult for her to remember these things, and it was not too difficult to learn them.
Qi Yang started to insert needles into Zhong Lang’s head again. As he did so, he said, “After the Heart Protection Formation, we’ll add a Brain Protection Formation to protect his head and prevent the poison from spreading. Otherwise, it’ll be impossible to cure him.”
Liu Shimei looked at the acupuncture formation in the book while observing Qi Yang’s acupuncture technique. “Is this brain protection?”
It had to be said that the people of this era thought of protecting their brains. That was definitely the masterpiece of Consort Nie.
After applying the Brain Protecting Formation, the two of them took Zhong Lang’s pulse. Then, they combined their strengths and studied the eight poison bottles that Zhong Lang brought back. They began to use the medicine on Zhong Lang for the first time.
After feeding Zhong Lang the medicine, it was time to wait. Liu Shimei then remembered that her fiance and Ninth Brother were still outside, so she walked outside.
Her Ninth Brother and the silly dog had already moved everything and decorated two rooms. When they saw her walk out, they immediately stood up. “Sister, how is the situation?” Liang Yi was still holding a teapot and a teacup in his hand. He poured a cup of water and handed it to Liu Shimei.
Huangfu Lingyao did not want to be outdone. He rushed over and asked with concern, “Is that person still alive?”
Liu Shimei smiled helplessly and said, “I’m trying to stabilize him. This is the first time I’ve tried to fight fire with fire. 1 don’t know what the result will be.” Qi Yang poked his head out from one of the rooms and shouted, “Hey, you two lads, do me a favor.”
Liang Yi was speechless.
So he was here to do manual labor!
“Mr.. Qi, if we hadn’t come, who would have done the work?”
