Chapter 0068: Aggravation (1 / 2)

“Epidemic worms have burrowed into his lungs, later I will open the blood in his back to release the poison, if he is lucky, it will be possible to delay the epidemic attack; if he is not lucky–“

The medic paused and said, “The wooden sign may then turn red.”

Xiang Capsicum’s face turned pale: “How could that be, yesterday master even came to see, said there was still a chance to save–“

That medical officer raised his eyes to look at Xiang Capsicum, and said with slight surprise, “Lady Talon is your master?”

Xiang Capsicum bristled with some embarrassment, “I’m gifted and stupid, and I’ve only been following Lady Officer Talon for two or three years, I haven’t yet learned a bit of Master’s fur–“

The medical officer nodded and said: ”This epidemic is different from ordinary plague, many people had extremely rapid attacks. It was only in the last few days that we realized that this is directly related to the patient’s own physique. Huang Sanjiu6 must have just injured his leg, his blood and qi have not yet been replenished, and then he contracted the plague, so he had to attack a little faster than the others. However, there is no need to worry too much, there have been many people who have had the plague not worsen after bloodletting, so perhaps it is the same for you.”

“Then I would like to thank the Medical Officer.” Chen Zian’s expression was calm as he respectfully bowed to the medical officer.

“I’ll do my best since.”

Xiang Capsicum was anxious, but could not help in the slightest, and could only close the doors and windows and watch the medical officer bleed on Chen Zian’s spine.

The medical officer used a plum blossom needle to sizzle on the flame and quickly poked it towards several large acupuncture points on his back, as the stabbing pain came in bursts on his back, Chen Zi’an gritted his teeth and did not say a word. Soon, a stream of dark black blood slowly flowed out of his back.

The medical officer put away the needle, and instructed Xiang Capsicum seriously, “In these two days, the patient should pay attention to the smoothness of the mind, and must not have too many emotional ups and downs. If the fever rises, you need to reduce it as soon as possible. You are a medical girl, you naturally know what to do.”

Xiang Capsicum hurriedly responded and respectfully sent the medical officer away.

She was terrified in her heart, but she was afraid to say something that would disturb Chen Zian’s mind, so she just smiled and said, “Your Excellency will be fine, I’m sure you’ll be fine. If there’s anything you want to eat, I’ll send someone to get some back. Your Excellency, don’t underestimate me, I am now a person with access to the White Horse Temple.”

Chen Zian turned his back and slowly put on his clothes before he slowly looked back and laughed, “‘Who says that tian is bitter? Its sweetness is like a chestnut’, now that spring has arrived, is it alright to eat this chestnut tonight?”

Xiang Capsicum was just about to respond, when she saw Chen Zian’s wry gaze and suddenly realized that her name was Capsicum, for a moment she couldn’t help but gasp, “Your Excellency, it’s already that time of the year, and you still want to poke fun at me!”

Chen Zian smiled weakly, pushed the wheelchair gently line to the front of the fragrance capsule, for the first time to take the initiative to pull up the fragrance capsule’s hand: “In the past always dare not say such words, for fear of appearing frivolous. Now you will allow me to be a little unrestrained?”

Xiang Capsicum suddenly had a sour nose and half squatted down to hug Chen Zian, “Good, then tonight I will make young master wontons stuffed with capers, okay?”

Chen Zisheng smiled, “I’ll listen to you on all counts.”

As the sun dipped in the west and the smoke from the nearby mountain villages rose, Ruoniang dragged her tired body back home, and just as she sat down on the bed with the intention of resting for a while, she was pushed and shoved by her husband, Hai Dafu, who gave her a hard slap on the face.

“Bitchy bitch! You only know how to go out and show off your face every day, and your own man can’t even eat a hot meal, so why don’t you go and cook!”

Zuniang took a deep breath and slowly said, “Yes.”

She woodenly removed the kerchief from her face, revealing her red, swollen cheeks and bruised, finger-mark-strewn neck, and rose to the stove to cook her food.

“Mother! I’m back!”

Seeing her returning son, a little smile finally appeared on Zuniang’s face, “Hey”
