Chapter 10: The Marvelous Art of Medicine

This is correct, the flesh of the Martian jujube is non-toxic, but the pit of the Martian jujube contains fire poison. Furthermore, your esteemed father consumed the Martian jujube while drinking protective pulse water, which prevented the fire poison in the pit from being expelled through the pores, gradually eroding into the bone marrow and exacerbating the condition.

Indeed, Doctor Xu conducted a thorough examination of my father's health, but was unable to identify the root cause of the illness

Ye Chenfeng gently nodded, following Bai Jiangshui and Bai Xiya, the father and daughter, to a two-story wooden small building in the backyard, where they saw Bai Xishan lying on a cold jade bed, his breath faint and ethereal.

Ye Chenfeng looked at Bai Jiangshui with a questioning expression in his eyes and said lightly

Before their eyes, the three white-haired physicians were completely stunned; despite their decades of immersion in the medical arts, they were unable to control the silver needles with such extraordinary skill.

With his body nearly weakened, Ye Chenfeng pulled out one hundred and eight silver needles, wiped the sweat that had emerged on his forehead, and said in a low voice

Ye Chenfeng approached Baixishan, releasing his soul power, shattering the clothes on his body, revealing a skeletal frame that was emaciated and resembled a mere skeleton

From the appearance of Bai Xishan, it is evident that one foot has already stepped into the gates of the underworld, with the possibility of drawing his last breath at any moment

I apologize for my earlier negligence. Bai Jiangshui took in the expressions of the three physicians and determined that Ye Chenfeng indeed possessed genuine talent, immediately standing up and saying with regret: "Please..."

To be cautious, Bai Jiangshui had Bai Xiya assist Ye Chenfeng in taking a rest, while he went to invite three physicians to examine Bai Xishan's health

Initially, Ye Chenfeng's use of the Heavenly Mysterious Needle to dispel poison was quite smooth, but gradually, the flaw of his insufficient soul power became apparent, making it increasingly difficult to control the Heavenly Mysterious Needle

It is estimated that your esteemed father will awaken tomorrow. If Lord Bai does not believe this, he may have the three physicians outside examine your esteemed father's condition, and then it will be clear whether I have spoken falsely or not. " With a weary expression, Ye Chenfeng supported himself against the headboard and said weakly

Approximately an hour later, the cold jade bed beneath Bai Xishan was corroded by the fire poison for more than half, while the fire poison within his body was almost completely eliminated

Have you ever considered, Lord of the White City, that although the injuries caused by losing oneself in obsession are severe, they are not beyond remedy? It is said that you have even summoned the imperial physicians from the royal palace to treat your esteemed father, yet his condition remains unchanged.

When one hundred and eight silver needles are inserted into one hundred and eight acupoints on the body of Bai Xishan, the soul power contained in the silver needles repeatedly stimulates his acupoints, generating waves of chilling energy that penetrate deep into the marrow, purging the fire poison within him

However, in order to earn the reward of one hundred thousand taels of silver offered by the Bai family, Ye Chenfeng gritted his teeth and persevered, continuously infusing soul power into the one hundred and eight silver needles, generating waves of pure cold air to dispel the fire poison

When Ye Chenfeng took his pulse, he discovered that his body resembled a large furnace, extremely hot, with all the meridians being burned to a fragile state by the intense heat.

There is hope, my father is saved

Seeing the frail figure of Bai Xishan, Bai Xiya's eyes immediately turned red, feeling a deep sense of sorrow for her grandfather

I will do my utmost to heal. Ye Chenfeng said softly: "You all stand aside, do not disturb me while I am treating, otherwise you will bear the consequences"

If it were not for the wealthy Bai family procuring this cold jade bed to suppress the intense heat within Bai Xishan, preventing it from erupting, it is possible that Bai Xishan would have already perished

Watching Ye Chen's needlework technique flow like clouds and water, Bai Jiangshui and his daughter stared wide-eyed, revealing an expression of disbelief

Although the fire poison is extremely stubborn in the secular world and difficult to cure, the Heavenly Mysterious Needle mastered by Ye Chenfeng is precisely the nemesis of fire poison

Indeed, Martian jujubes are extremely rare. My father, fearing to damage the spiritual essence of the Martian jujube, swallowed the entire fruit. After consuming the Martian jujube, he also drank a bottle of pulse-protecting water to safeguard his meridians from the heat energy released by the jujube. Bai Jiangshan nodded, now fully confident in Ye Chenfeng's medical skills.

"You have expelled the fire poison so quickly?" Bai Jiangshui raised her eyebrows in disbelief and asked

Alright, then Master Chen may rest in the side room for a moment

"Master Chen, is there still hope for my father?" Bai Jiangshui asked nervously as he watched Ye Chenfeng finish taking the pulse.

"Master Chen, is there still hope for my father?" Bai Jiangshui completely set aside the demeanor of a city lord and asked sincerely

This person is undoubtedly a genius in acupuncture

Hoo ... ...

Thank you, Master Chen. I entrust my father to you. As long as you can cure him, the Bai family will certainly reward you generously. Bai Jiangshui expressed his gratitude, standing alongside the charming Bai Xiya, waiting.

"Poisoning? That can't be possible. My father's injury must have been caused by his obsession, right?" Bai Jiangshui said with a furrowed brow, once again doubting Ye Chenfeng's medical skills

Upon witnessing the skill displayed by Ye Chenfeng, the three white-haired physicians immediately elevated him to their level, and the disdain on their faces vanished without a trace

"Huh, it's almost done, the fire poison in Old Master Bai's body has been basically cleared out."

Ye Chenfeng took a deep breath, retrieved a box of silver needles from the medicine cabinet, and, following the Tianxuan needle technique, infused each needle tip with soul power. With a gentle flick of his fingers, the silver needles seemed to open their eyes, poised to accurately pierce the acupoints on Bai Xishan's body.

What a skillful technique for controlling the needle

Whoosh!

The fire poison that even the imperial physicians of the royal city could not eliminate was completely cleared by Ye Chenfeng in just over an hour, which left Bai Jiangshui feeling incredulous

Master Chen is not wrong; my father indeed ate a Mars date not long ago. However, that Mars date was purchased by my family at the auction in the imperial city, so there should be no major issues

If I am not mistaken, your esteemed father should be poisoned" Ye Chenfeng said slowly, drawing upon the medical knowledge passed down in his mind

Bai Jiangshui spoke without any concealment, but the doubts about Ye Chenfeng were dispelled, and a glimmer of hope arose in his heart

I have learned an ancient acupuncture technique from my master. If Lord Bai believes in me, allow me to give it a try. If Lord Bai does not believe, I will leave immediately. Ye Chenfeng glanced at the three white-haired physicians who were dumbfounded and deliberately fabricated a story about a master.

"Lord Bai, your esteemed father must have swallowed the Martian dates whole at that time, and furthermore, he likely ingested other substances as well," Ye Chenfeng deduced

One hundred and eight silver needles seemed to possess life, swirling in a special trajectory as they danced lightly under Ye Chenfeng's deft fingers

That is because the poison in your esteemed father has never been seen by Doctor Xu, and it has penetrated deep into the marrow. If I am not mistaken, your esteemed father must have consumed a fire attribute spirit fruit before falling ill

During the acupuncture process, Bai Jiangshui continuously released his spiritual energy to observe. When he noticed waves of heat escaping through the open pores of Bai Xishan, he couldn't help but feel excited

The two were completely captivated by Ye Chenfeng's extraordinary medical skills
