Chapter 33 Medicine Immortal Valley Cannot Be Left Alive 9
The female protagonist grew weaker day by day. At first, she could still leave her room, but later she couldn't even leave the door.
"Brother Wenyuan, is my illness getting worse? Why do I have no strength at all?"
"This is normal, don't worry, it will get better in a couple of days."
Wen Yuan added a medicine to boost his energy and spirit.
Although it may make a person look energetic and have a rosy complexion in the short term, it also has significant side effects, as it depletes the body's vital energy.
Two days later, the female protagonist was indeed lively and energetic again.
"Brother Wenyuan, am I all better? I'm so happy."
"No, this is only temporary; your illness is not cured."
Wen Yuan retorted calmly.
Hearing this, the female protagonist felt a little sad, but thinking about her illness, it was indeed very serious. She had seen so many doctors who were helpless, so how could it be cured in just a few days?
But at least it gave her hope.
“Brother Wenyuan, you don’t need to feel pressured. I believe you can cure my illness. Even if you can’t, it’s okay. I know you’ve done your best.”
"Okay, I'll be giving you acupuncture later. We'll need to find a quiet place where we can't be disturbed."
"I will do whatever Brother Wenyuan says."
Wen Yuan led the female protagonist past everyone and left the Medicine Immortal Valley.
They arrived at a cave, which Wen Yuan had discovered by chance; it was very secluded.
"I'll give you acupuncture here now. You can get ready first, and I'll come back tomorrow."
The female protagonist can now live independently. She does her own laundry and cleaning in Medicine Fairy Valley; no one helps her. She has also learned to cook a little, and although the taste is just average, at least she won't go hungry anymore.
Wen Yuan returned to the Valley of Medicine Immortals alone.
"Du Ruo, that girl has already left. She didn't have any clothes, so she took yours."
"Senior Brother Wenyuan, it's alright. I'm not wearing it now anyway, so I'll just give it to that girl."
Du Ruo didn't care about a piece of clothing and went back to continue practicing her sword.
"Junior Sister Du Ruo, only you are so kind. If it were me, I wouldn't give it to her even if I didn't want it."
"Senior sister, forget it. That girl was just not used to it at first, which is why she asked me for help. Didn't she do it herself in the end? It's just a piece of clothing that I don't want anymore. I guess she'll just throw it away when she gets back. Let's practice our swordsmanship instead."
Wen Yuan returned to his room, prepared the silver needles, and carefully cleaned them.
I really want to see what it looks like to be pricked by a needle and suffer the pain.
Wen Yuan originally thought that the female lead's body was so weak that she would be unable to continue after taking two doses of medicine.
Despite its apparent weakness, it is remarkably resilient.
He was lying in bed with only one breath left, yet he stubbornly stayed alive.
Since it's so hard to die, then we can have some fun.
The next day, Wen Yuan came to the cave and brought some food for the female protagonist.
"Eat something first, then we'll start the acupuncture."
Wen Yuan brought leftover food from the kitchen. The female protagonist looked at the white porridge and pickled vegetables. She wouldn't have eaten these before, but now she was used to it. This was all the food that Yaoxian Valley had. She could eat it if she wanted, or not if she didn't. Patients had to eat a light diet.
The female lead has a small appetite and only needs to eat a little bit.
"Now, take off your clothes, lie on the bed, and expose your back."
The female lead blushed slightly upon hearing this, "Do...do we all have to take our clothes off?"
"Of course, I need acupuncture. Hurry up."
Seeing Wen Yuan's serious expression, the female protagonist awkwardly took off her clothes and lay down on a blue stone in the cave, which became her bed.
She comforted herself, telling herself that her brother Wenyuan was a doctor and was there to treat her illness.
The bluestone slabs were very cool. The female protagonist lay on them and felt a chill to the bone, but her face was covered with a blush.
Wen Yuan stuffed a handkerchief into the female lead's mouth, saying, "The acupuncture will hurt a lot later, so bite down on the handkerchief and don't hurt yourself."
The female lead obediently bit the handkerchief. Before, when she was in great pain from her illness, her uncle would also give her a handkerchief to bite on.
Wen Yuan then tied up the female lead's hands and feet.
He took out a silver needle and inserted it.
The female protagonist, who had been filled with romantic thoughts, now only felt pain.
"Bear with it, don't move."
Wen Yuan gave him another acupuncture.
Seeing the silver needle pierce the flesh and blood ooze out, Wen Yuan felt a great sense of satisfaction.
The female protagonist couldn't help but twist her body because of the pain.
Wen Yuan felt that the female lead was like a caterpillar that could be easily crushed.
Finally, the female protagonist fainted from the pain.
Wen Yuan put the silver needle away and licked the blood droplets off it.
This continued for several days in a row.
The female lead managed to finish the acupuncture treatment without fainting.
Wen Yuan was pleasantly surprised.
He prepared a medicinal bath that day. Now, the acupuncture could not cause the female lead too much pain, nor could it make him feel comfortable.
He had once read in a medical book that there was a kind of medicinal person who could be immune to all poisons after being boiled in various poisons, and whose blood could cure all poisons.
Wen Yuan felt that the female lead's body was quite suitable for being cultivated into a medicine person.
It's best not to disappoint him.
"No acupuncture today, let's have a medicinal bath instead. Go in and soak."
The female lead was quite happy that she didn't have to get injections; she was finally free from so much pain.
However, the female protagonist soon regretted it; this medicinal bath was not as good as acupuncture.
Pain, it hurts.
This time it wasn't just physical pain; it felt like internal pain.
"Brother Wenyuan, it hurts so much."
"Pain is normal; it's helping you clear toxins from your body. The acupuncture was very painful at first, but after a few sessions, it didn't hurt as much. The medicinal bath is the same. Once the pain subsides, you'll feel better."
The female protagonist thought about it and realized that was the case, so she could only endure the pain.
Fifteen minutes later, Wen Yuan took out the antidote and fed it to the female protagonist.
The female protagonist lay on the bluestone, on the verge of death.
Wen Yuan left the cave.
However, Wen Yuan's idea of turning the female lead into a medicine person ultimately failed.
There was a poison that the female protagonist couldn't withstand and died from. Wen Yuan didn't have time to give her the antidote.
Looking at the female lead's corpse, Wen Yuan felt only bad luck; she was too fragile.
Wen Yuan threw the female protagonist's body into the wilderness.
Wild animals discovered the carcass, dragged it to their territory, and devoured it.
As a result, he collapsed from the poisoning while drinking water by the river.
The female protagonist's uncle and his group found her clothes in the river and have been searching along the riverbank ever since.
They didn't even spare the surrounding villages; perhaps someone had rescued them.
Unfortunately, the whereabouts of the female lead have never been found.
They thought the female lead might have met with some misfortune, but no one wanted to believe it.
Their existence is solely for the female lead.
If the female lead dies, then there's no point in them living.
They will not give up until they find the female protagonist's body; they will continue searching.
They discovered a wild animal drinking water on the other side of the river.
He was shot dead with an arrow.
Then they went to the other side of the river, processed the wild animal, roasted it, and ate it.
In the end, everyone was poisoned to death; no one survived.
Jiang He placed some poison on the corpses and then left.
The disciples who came out of Medicine Immortal Valley to gather herbs discovered these corpses, and Jiang He led people to examine them.
They were found to have some poison on them, as well as some tokens that marked the previous dynasty.
The bodies were transported to Medicine Fairy Valley.
Because they possessed a poison that could cause people to lose their offspring, the same poison that had poisoned the Emperor and the Empresses, they sent a message to the capital.
The emperor sent people to Medicine Immortal Valley to investigate the matter, and the male protagonist also came with them.
Who is this?
"Dr. Jiang, this is the Crown Prince's child. The child was originally very intelligent, but later became stupid. Now he doesn't even know some common sense, just like a three-year-old child."
The imperial physician said that he had been poisoned, which would affect his mind, and that he might become an idiot in the future.
However, the imperial physicians could not identify the poison, nor did they know how to detoxify it.
This time, the Emperor sent me here, so I brought him along as well.
"Dr. Jiang, please take a look at this. Is it poisoning or something else? Is there any way to detoxify it?"
The emperor didn't care that the crown prince's child had been poisoned and turned into a fool.
However, the imperial physicians could neither detect nor cure the poison, which made the emperor worry that it might be used to poison his prince.
Just then, Doctor Jiang mentioned that he had discovered a group of people who carried the same poison that had been used to poison him, so he immediately sent people over to investigate.
Jiang He found it quite amusing to watch the male protagonist, who was running a snotty nose, playing in the mud, and even putting his hand in his mouth.
However, there was no poison inside the male body; what Jiang He had given him was not poison, but a talisman.
The male protagonist will remain in this state forever and will not completely become an idiot.
What's the point of turning someone into an idiot? It's better to make them understand something.
"Don't suck your hands, they're dirty and you'll get sick. Have some candy." Jiang He took a handkerchief, wiped the male lead's hands, and then fed him a piece of candy.
That candy contained real poison.
Jiang He summoned everyone from the Medicine Immortal Valley and asked them to take the male protagonist's pulse.
Some people can only see that something is wrong, but they don't know what's wrong with it.
Some people appeared to be poisoned, but the type of poison was unknown.
Some people know what kind of poison it is and know how to cure it.
"This poison can be cured, but it damages the brain. After the detoxification, you can only maintain the original state; it is very difficult to return to the state before the poisoning."
Jiang He fed the male protagonist a bowl of bitter medicine to neutralize the poison.
The visitor was relieved to learn that the poison could be cured.
Whether the child recovers or not is not a big deal.
Jiang He then led people to see the body that had been discovered earlier.
The drugs they carried included those that had caused the previous loss of offspring, as well as drugs that affected their minds.
"Let's destroy these medicines to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands and harming people."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Dr. Jiang."
The visitors also discovered that the tokens they carried belonged to the previous dynasty's royal family.
"Dr. Jiang, leave these corpses to us."
These bodies were all transported back to the capital.
They also released the news that they had captured the remnants of the previous dynasty.
Every day, a corpse is hung on the city gate.
Other people scattered in various places discovered that these were the people who followed the princess, and they became very anxious, fearing that the princess had also been captured.
The fact that they tried to contact each other using coded messages, but received no reply, is even more worrying.
The emperor announced that the remnants of the previous dynasty would be imprisoned, and one person would be killed every day, with their corpses hung on the city gate.
For the first few days, I was able to hold back.
Later, they gathered together and discussed going to the prison in the middle of the night to rescue the princess, no matter what.
As a result, they were caught red-handed. The rebels from the previous dynasty were completely purged.
All the deepest buried stakes were removed.
When Wen Yuan was traveling down the mountain, he encountered a group of bandits and was killed.
This incident also taught the disciples of Medicine Immortal Valley a profound lesson: they must study martial arts diligently, as simply knowing medicine is too dangerous for them to travel around.
The others who were traveling with him were only slightly injured because they knew martial arts, but Wen Yuan, who did not know martial arts and was in a wheelchair, was killed by the bandits with a single blow.
From then on, the disciples of Medicine Immortal Valley had to start practicing martial arts from the very beginning of identifying herbs.
The daily martial arts practice time is no less than two hours.
“He’er, your father is getting old, he doesn’t need to practice martial arts anymore. My old arms and legs will fall apart if I keep doing this.”
"Dad, don't worry, it won't fall apart so easily. You can practice this Tai Chi to strengthen your body."
As the master of Medicine Immortal Valley, Jiang's father naturally had to set a good example. Moreover, since he sat in his study every day, he also needed to come out for some fresh air and exercise.
"Alright, alright, then He'er will teach Daddy."
Everyone says that you should never offend the people of Medicine Immortal Valley.
Firstly, having offended the Medicine Immortal Valley, one's future life, from birth to old age, sickness, and death, will be left to fate.
Secondly, offending Medicine Immortal Valley can be fatal with a single dose of poison.
Thirdly, if you want to offend the Medicine Immortal Valley, you might not be able to beat them in a fight.
