Chapter Ninety-Nine: Healing the Storm
The festival in the mountains always comes very early, and the knee-high snow has melted away in two days. The snow is extremely cold, and Taiji Peak has never had quilt materials for the winter, so everyone spent the past two days in the house.
Mengyan sat quietly in front of the window, looking at the clouds outside the window, everything seemed to be recovering, and there was only one day before her medical treatment, she lowered her eyebrows and meditated, and sighed!
At the beginning of spring on the third day of the new year, the weather was indeed much warmer, and Zhou Yi arranged for the slaves to prepare the necessary things two days in advance, and everything was available at this time. Mengyan was dressed in plain clothes and sat upright, as if she was waiting for fate's final judgment on her, or forgiveness, in short, everything was variable until the result came out. What she can't let go of may be the kind of expectation that has made her persist until now, and now that this expectation is coming to an end, it is not a better choice for someone like her who is used to sitting still to have that kind of fantasy with no deadline!
When she saw Zhou Yi come in, she exhaled slowly, her slender neck turned slightly, reflecting the sunlight outside the window lattice, and her whole person was as white as a snow lotus.
"Are you ready?" Zhou Yi stood in front of the door, and the steps that were about to take a step forward were retracted, looking around the room, and his eyes never dared to face Mengyan.
Meng Yan nodded slightly, clutching a wooden comb tightly in his hand.
"But there is one thing I want to make clear to you, so that you don't ......"
"It's okay, I'm like this, what worse outcome can make me back down!"
Zhou Yiyi lowered his head and was stunned for a moment, looking a little embarrassed, but finally spoke, "I studied under Mr. Gongsun, and I am sure that I will treat your injuries, but ...... I'm afraid it's inconvenient!"
When Meng Yan heard this, he couldn't help but hide his face and smile, "Zhou Yi, when we first met, I could see that you were an unruly gentleman. You and I know each other by fate, and I am a few years older than you, even if I respect you as a sister, it is not an exaggeration! You and I are a confidant, so it is enough, you can practice medicine!"
Zhou Yi hugged his fists and bowed slightly, "If that's the case, then I'll ......"
"In that case, let me do it for you!"
While speaking, Yu Xi suddenly walked in from outside the door, followed by Zhao Nu and others.
Zhou Yi's face turned red, and he said impatiently: "This matter is a matter of success or failure, how can it be child's play!"
"Who said that you are the only one in this world who understands medical skills?" moved to Mengyan's side, looked up and down, with a smile between his eyebrows, and at the same time looked at her with an upward look, "Mengyan girl is naturally beautiful, with a beautiful face and moon appearance, don't let some people have crooked thoughts and take advantage of the opportunity!"
"Miss Yu is really good at laughing, what is Zhou Gongzi's character, can you still not know?" Mengyan raised his chin slightly, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You and I are our own sisters, why bother with these false courtesies?"
Her words gave Yu Xi a chance to criticize Zhou Yi, Yu Xi was reasonable, snorted coldly, and glanced at Zhou Yi, "Girl, what she said is right, if Zhou Dagongzi's behavior is bad, he will not have these brothers who intersect with life and death, but, as you said, there are some things that only I know best, or I will stir up the Kanto ......"
Speaking of this, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, Sima Chun and Murong Xue knew the situation in Kanto, and they already felt that the next step would be extremely embarrassing, and Zhou Yi's face was even hotter, and his face was red. Murong Xue hurriedly interrupted her, "Yu Xi, this is a question of whether Miss Mengyan can be cured, are you sure that you can do it?"
As soon as Yu Xi raised his head, he was about to speak, when he saw Murong Xue's gloomy face, he frowned and signaled her not to mention the old Kanto incident, and Zhou Yi next to him also had blue tendons on his forehead, so when he thought about it, revealing this matter in front of everyone really made him have nowhere to stand. So the conversation changed, and he said proudly: "I have also walked through the rivers and lakes, if I don't have this ability, I have ten lives over the years, and it is not enough to get in." ”
Zhou Yi's face was pale, his eyebrows were cold, and he slowly walked towards her. Looking at the style, the two are going to have a big fight. Seeing that the situation was not good, Meng Yan smiled busily and said to Yu Xi: "If the girl is willing to serve, then it is naturally more suitable than Zhou Gongzi! It seems that I owe you a favor again." ”
Hearing her say this, Zhou Yi was even more depressed, so he sighed, turned around and walked out. Sima Chun himself felt embarrassed, and hurriedly followed him out of the door, persuading as he walked: "What Miss Yu said is reasonable, even if Mengyan is a few years older than you, she is still an innocent big girl, there is a suspicion between men and women, she is also thinking about Mengyan when she says this, you don't have to mind." ”
"I'm not afraid of what he says, but has my brother thought about it, what does she have to do with Mengyan? To put it bluntly, it's an intolerable enemy......!
"Can't you trust Yu Xi's life?"
"It's not a matter of believing it or not, in case Yu Xi finds out that Mengyan intends to frame Yu seniors, I'm really afraid, I'm really afraid that she will do something drastic!"
Sima Chun sighed: "It seems that the closer you get to a person, the more you can't see her heart clearly! The reason why Yu Xi has to treat you is not out of the name of loving Mengyan, nor is it because she has a plan as you think, she just can't step through the hurdle in her heart, and she can't see that you have any adhesion with other women! If you can understand her painstaking work, you won't doubt her so much!"
Zhou Yi was shocked, and an inexplicable worry arose in his heart, he knew that Yu Xi's deep friendship with him was very affectionate, but Qing Zhi was affectionate to me, the so-called fate made people happy, but if it wasn't for the right person, all this would be a dream after all. In any case, Sima Chun's words still woke him up, if Yu Xi really had evil intentions, on Chinese New Year's Eve, she only needed to move her mouth to say one more word, which was enough to embarrass Mengyan to the extreme. Moreover, with Mengyan's heart, there are many unspeakable hidden feelings that are unprovoked by the number of people, which is undoubtedly the best means to force her to destroy herself.
Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved, and he blamed himself for his unwarranted suspicion of Yu Xi's kindness, so he didn't say much, and walked to the room where he was resting with his head down.
"Hey, can't you figure it out?" asked Sima Chun after a few steps.
Zhou Yi paused slightly, turned sideways and said, "I'll go get the medicine box for her treatment." ”
Sima Chun smiled, "Isn't it a consultation today?"
"I have asked her to take medicine to reduce blood stasis for a few days according to the prior arrangement, and today is a good time to practice medicine. ”
"Okay, then I'll arrange it first. ”
With that, he ran towards Mengyan's bedroom with a smile on his face.
At that time, Yu Xi was also angry, and went out to bump into him, Yu Xi was angry, so he simply ignored Sima Chun and walked out angrily.
Sima Chun stopped her and coaxed her: "Zhou Yi asked me to tell you a prophet, he will come immediately when he goes to get the medicine box, don't go far!"
"What he wants, it's up to him!"
"Hey, that's not right, he was embarrassed just now, so he begged me to come back and control the situation," he said, deliberately lowering his voice, "He loves face, he really said good things just now and begged me to come back and persuade you, I told you, don't tell you anything, it's embarrassing." ”
Yu Xi was skeptical, but what could he do, Mengyan's illness had to be treated, if he was really angry and left, wouldn't he be able to fulfill Zhou Yi?
It happened that Zhou Yi came from the other end of the corridor, looking at his expression, he seemed to be relaxed, Yu Xi didn't even look at him, turned around and entered the house.
Everything is done, Zhou Yi put the herbs prepared in advance into a stone pot, set it on a stove, and boil it until it is slightly hot, and let the slave wait for Mengyan to soak his feet in it, and the pot is on fire, and the heat is steaming. At this time, everyone came to a home remedy, and only Yu Xi stayed by Mengyan's side.
Zhou Yi instructed in the side room, and let Yu Xi look at the three acupoints of Jiaoyang, Jiaoxin, and Hanging Bell on her calf, and then the Fengshi and Futu two acupoints on the outside of her thighs, as well as the blood sea and Ququan acupoints on the inside. Sure enough, these acupoints are all blackened, and they have been deep into the muscles and bones for a long time. Yu Xi pressed it lightly a few times, only to feel that her skin was stiff and the poisoned place had died.
After the diagnosis, Yu Xi helped her put on shoes and socks, only to see Meng Yan's face crimson, with a palpitating expression. Before Yu Xi could speak, she said softly, "I didn't expect it to ...... Thank you so much for today!"
Yu Xi naturally knew what she said, and she didn't care, so she let everyone come out of the side room. Zhou Yi asked about the relevant details, recorded them one by one, turned back to Mengyan and said, "You are not an ordinary injury, but poisoned." ”
Mengyan hurriedly asked, "Is it possible to solve it?"
Zhou Yi said confidently: "Coincidentally, the girl's illness, I'm afraid only I can cure it in the world." As soon as this sentence came out, he felt that he had lost what he had said, so he hurriedly changed the topic, opened the medicine box and took out a row of silver needles, and wrote down the position and depth of the needles, and instructed Yu Xi to do what he said.
Yu Xi said silently, "There are more doctors in the world, you have only seen a few! A fake man who runs the rivers and lakes, saying such a big thing is nothing more than wanting to make people appreciate your kindness!"
Zhou Yi pretended not to hear, handed her the written note, and said earnestly: "Yu Xi, success or failure is here! After each acupuncture point is pierced, be sure to use these bamboo tubes to pull out the venom!"
Yu Xi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Don't worry, in order to break the suspicion in your heart, I won't go wrong!"
Zhou Yi blushed, nodded, and said in a low voice: "It's me who is wrong today, please don't take it to heart!"
"My prime minister's measurements, I don't care about you!"
As she spoke, she locked everyone in the side room, and she followed the steps written by Zhou Yi and pierced them one by one. With each stitch, an arm-thick bamboo tube is roasted on the stove and then buckled to the needle until all the acupuncture points have been pierced.
Yu Xi breathed a long sigh of relief and was about to drink saliva, when he heard Mengyan exclaim and fainted on his back. The slave immediately rushed out of the side room, looking at Meng Yan sweating profusely, his face was sallow, and his eyebrows suddenly became angry, and he pushed Yu Xi a few times without saying anything. Zhou Yi and the others also followed, only to see that several fire pots on Mengyan's legs had fallen off, and black blood flowed all over the ground. However, her meridians were not active, and the blood could not be stopped, so she lost too much blood and fainted.
Yu Xi was shocked, and hurriedly explained that she did what Zhou Yi ordered, and as for her at the moment, she was also very worried. In a hurry, Zhou Yi couldn't avoid suspicion, so he pulled out the silver needle and pricked a few more needles at other acupuncture points to stop the bleeding. When he turned around, he instructed the slave to feed Meng Yan a bowl of sugar water, so that she could rest in peace.
After everything was over, Zhou Yi went out and saw Yu Xi sitting in the corner with an innocent look, so he slowly walked towards her.
