Chapter 650 I'm afraid you'll die from this!
Lu Yangyang looked at the small bottle of medicine she had received and nervously swallowed.
Their method of preparing the medicine this time was different from usual. It was not a simple combination of prescriptions, but rather each medicinal herb was specially processed and blended in proportion to finally produce this small bottle of concentrated liquid.
Lu Yangyang hesitated whether to drink it directly, but Wen Yu stopped her.
“You usually seem quite smart, how come you’re acting so confused now? Try things out little by little, but you gulp it down like that, so even if there’s a problem, you won’t be able to tell.”
Wen Yu lightly patted her head in an annoyed tone.
Lu Yangyang suddenly snapped back to reality and muttered, "I'm nervous."
For the past few years, she has been researching how to cure Zong Que's leg. Originally, she wanted to find a more reliable method, but last year, the situation was urgent, and she could no longer proceed step by step.
Later, in order to find the medicinal herbs, a lot of effort was put in, but luckily, the right time and place were met.
If successful, Zong Que's leg can be cured, freeing him from the excruciating pain.
How could she not be nervous?
Fortunately, she remained calm and used a special glass tube to separate the liquid before attempting the first test.
As a result, she spent two whole hours running to the toilet, and was almost completely exhausted from the diarrhea.
The second time, her whole body broke out in red rashes, and she almost got disfigured.
Then came the third time, with vomiting and diarrhea.
After going through this process countless times, in just one day, she looked like she had lost a lot of weight.
Fortunately, with this experience, the second batch of medication was prepared much faster.
By the third day of the drug trial, Lu Yangyang could barely get up.
Just then, Sheng Junyi came to see her. When he saw her ghostly appearance, he was really startled: "What kind of poison did you get? You look like you've been drained dry?"
Lu Yangyang was already completely exhausted. Hearing his words, she rolled her eyes and grabbed his arm tightly with her skeletal claws. "Help me up!"
Not understanding what was going on, Sheng Junyi simply picked her up and placed her on a chair, then channeled some of his inner energy into her.
Lu Yangyang was finally able to sit up and get another prescription filled.
When the medicine was ready for testing, she couldn't help but ask Sheng Junyi, "What is this 'true qi' thing? It's kind of like a powerful tonic."
Sheng Junyi's brow twitched. He pinched his brow bone and said, "So all the internal energy cultivation techniques I taught you were for nothing?"
Lu Yangyang: "The principle is still unclear."
"Give up, your talent is limited." Sheng Junyi picked her up and threw her onto the soft couch.
Lu Yangyang swallowed the freshly prepared medicine, her face pale, and asked Mingxiu to bring her the basin, afraid that she would vomit bile later.
Mingxiu gently wiped her face, but Lu Yangyang suddenly jumped up excitedly, "I've got it!"
Several people looked at her at the same time.
"For the last two times, I couldn't think of any difference, but I still felt it was a little off. Is it possible that my technique wasn't quite right?" Lu Yangyang said excitedly, "To give an example, the reason why acupuncture is so effective is that it directly affects the meridians. If the medicine is already fine, then to achieve the effect I want, I just need to use qi to enter the needle, stimulating the meridians and allowing the medicine to work together, right? We're just focusing on finding problems in the proportions of the prescription, aren't we just getting stuck in a rut?"
"That's right! How come I didn't think of that!" Wen Yu suddenly realized, "I was indeed blinded by a leaf. Right now, only the three of us here know medicine, but we each have our differences when it comes to using needles. Yang Yang's strength is extremely precise, and no one can match her. Although I am skilled, I lack precision. Qing Qing is the same; she has held needles since childhood, but she has no interest in this art, so she also has shortcomings. When the three of us insert needles, the results are not much different. But if we use qi to insert the needle, it is a different level altogether."
The three of them looked at Sheng Junyi at the same time.
Sheng Junyi: "Me?"
The three of them nodded in unison.
Sheng Junyi was speechless: "Have you forgotten something? I don't know how to use needles."
"It's okay, you'll get it with practice." Lu Yangyang pressed him down without saying a word, told Wen Qingqing to get the needle, then rolled up her trouser leg, thought for a moment, and put it down again.
"Master, why don't you do it? I'm a little too hungry, I'm afraid he'll knock me out," Lu Yangyang said weakly.
She was completely exhausted at this point, and she couldn't eat anything. If they gave her two more acupuncture needles, she might just die.
Wen Yu: "You're such a filial son! Aren't you afraid he'll ruin me by stabbing me?"
Despite saying that, Wen Yu sat down without the slightest hesitation, as if facing death.
Sheng Junyi, who had been inexplicably forced into this situation, was now holding the needle with a puzzled expression and asked uncertainly, "Are you sure?"
"Confirmed." The three of them said in unison.
Sheng Junyi remained silent for a moment.
He had this strange feeling that he got goosebumps all over.
Fortunately, Wen Yu's guidance was extremely accurate. Although he was pricked so many times that his face turned green, there were no major problems. As it turned out, Lu Yangyang's idea was correct. Their prescription was already accurate enough. The only thing missing was how to maximize its effect. With the help of Sheng Junyi's true energy, they reached another level.
After nearly two hours of fussing, and once Sheng Junyi was able to skillfully insert the needles, the group finally let him go. Lu Yangyang excitedly instructed Mingxiu, "Go make my second brother a bowl of nourishing soup. He'll have his turn to help tomorrow."
Mingxiu happily agreed: "Okay!"
Sheng Junyi turned and ran: "There's no need for that, I'm perfectly fine!"
Lu Yangyang blinked: "Why did he run away?"
Wen Yu, his legs covered in blood bruises from being stabbed, limped to a chair and sat down, saying irritably, "Why don't you go out and ask around? How many men want to drink this 'Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup'?"
Lu Yangyang: "...This kind of supplement is not the same as that kind of supplement!"
Wen Qingqing brought her a bowl of medicine: "You should take care of yourself first, otherwise Aque will be heartbroken when she sees your dark circles tomorrow!"
Lu Yangyang obediently took the bowl of medicine and gulped it down, immediately feeling guilty.
I've been busy testing the medicine these past few days and really forgot. If Ah Que saw her like this, he'd probably ask her what happened.
How can this be explained?
Lu Yangyang tugged at Wen Qingqing's sleeve and asked, "Is it too late for me to go drink some nourishing soup now?"
Wen Qingqing pinched her face, which was so tender it was almost impossible to pinch any flesh: "It's too late, I'm afraid you'll die from overeating."
Lu Yangyang: "..."
She's just a little weak right now, purely from hunger. She can't eat while testing the drug, and has been drinking water for the past few days. She's really helpless!
