Chapter 30 Wind and Rain Guandi Temple (2)

The man seemed to understand. He smiled sadly and said with a dark face: "So the ox-hair needle is attached to the plum blossom needle and penetrates the blood vessels. Then it will enter the heart along with the blood flow. If it enters the heart, it will cause death. People think it is poisoning, but If you don’t pay attention to another hidden weapon in your bloodline, who knows that even if you are detoxified, you will still die!”

Haitang thought he was scared, so she smiled at him: "Don't be afraid. Fortunately, I found needle No. 17 after counting it. I was a little worried just now because it was too close to the heart, so it would be difficult to operate."

"The row I left earlier is for hanging needles, which can be used to sense where your blood is flowing. When it reaches the cow-hair needle, it will move due to obstruction, and you can determine where it is." Haitang's eyes were dark. Bright, warm and sincere, it seemed to attract him to fall deeper and deeper into it. He turned his head with a cold face to prevent himself from thinking about it.

"You can cut it, I'm not afraid." His expression quickly returned to calmness.

Haitang nodded and took out a fine-edged knife from her medical kit.He burned it on Ling Shuang's torch, carefully aimed at the swollen blood vessels, and cut it steadily. Blood flowed out from the crack, and a needle as thin as a hair rushed out with the blood. A head is exposed. If you don't look carefully, you might think it's the hair growing there.

Haitang pulled out a piece of hair, tied it into a knot, and put it on the needle.She held her breath and moved her fingers slowly in order to steady her fingers, a thin trickle of sweat forming on her forehead.There was a trace of tenderness in the man's eyes, like a spark of fire. Although it was small, it couldn't help but gradually spread.

Finally, as Haitang raised his hand, a needle about an inch long and as thick as a hair was pulled out.Haitang sprinkled styptic powder on the incision, then pressed it firmly with a piece of fine cotton cloth, took out the three silver needles that sealed the blood vessels, and wrapped strips of cloth around it to secure it.

The man suddenly raised his hand involuntarily and awkwardly wiped the sweat on her forehead with his sleeve.

Such an intimate gesture made Haitang blush a little. She said calmly, "You have to wait for your internal injuries. I don't have any ready-made medicine. I have to make a soup and take it. However, my medicine can help you temporarily regain your energy. You can take it with your mouth." In the mouth." As she spoke, she poured out a pill, which was the Xingshendan she made from ginseng and ginkgo.

The man took the medicine as instructed and looked at his legs.

Haitang turned around and said, "Shuang'er, I'll hold his legs. When I count to three, you kick him right in the soles of the feet."

Shuang'er had just been holding her breath watching Haitang's every move. Only then did she become convinced of Haitang's medical skills.She asked: "How hard should you use? I'm afraid I'll break his legs."

Haitang thought for a while and said, "Try your [-]% strength."

After saying that, she began to count: "One...two...". On the third count, Shuang'er kicked over, and Haitang twisted the man's leg at the same time. With a "click", the dislocated joint reset.

The man's face turned a little red, and he was obviously in pain.He braced himself against the wall and tried to stand up slowly.Shuang'er immediately stepped forward and put the sword against his chest.

"Shuang'er, he just wants to move so that I can go in and see his companions. You can let him go out, or he can lie down outside." Haitang explained for him.The man was a little surprised, but he nodded expressionlessly and walked out slowly.After a while, Haitang and Ling Shuang also walked out from behind the statue of Emperor Guan. Haitang said to him: "I read it right. Your friend suffered serious internal injuries, but the external injuries were not serious. I did not have a restraint on my hand. As medicine for internal injuries, I have given him Xingshendan now, but it can only save his breath. Whether he can endure it depends on his will and destiny."

After saying that, Haitang seemed to be attracted by the heavy rain outside the temple. She stood upright and looked at the rain curtain outside the temple door.The man also stood side by side with her, following her gaze and looking out.The heavy rain was still pouring down involuntarily, as if it was going to wash away everything on the ground.

The two of them just stood in front of the rain curtain, lost in thought. They didn't feel embarrassed at all, as if they should be like this. There was an indescribable tacit understanding.Haitang didn't know what her future would be like after the heavy rain; and the man looked at her with a slightly frowning brow, and this kind of worry happened to be hanging in his heart.

For a moment, the man actually felt that she would understand him!

The heavy rain came and went quickly. It fell for two hours, and the night was washed fresh and transparent.The cool wind blew by, and exhaustion suddenly hit the body. The three girls who were napping against the pillar fell into a deep sleep.

When dawn broke and the chirping of birds woke the three of them up, they realized how strange it was that they were sleeping so deeply.

Shuang'er looked sharply in the direction where the man was sitting last night, but saw no one. Then she ran behind the statue of Emperor Guan, and even the unconscious man last night was gone!
Ji'er ran in from outside and said anxiously: "Girl, our carriage is gone, only one horse is left!" Her eyes suddenly fell on the wall at the entrance of the temple, where their boxes and luggage were piled up against the wall. .It seemed that the man only robbed their carriage and one horse. He unloaded the other horse and left it with them.

"Damn thief! White-eyed wolf! How dare he touch my acupoints! Next time I see him, I will definitely skin him!" Shuang'er was so angry that she cursed, but she thought in her heart that if the prince knew about it, he would definitely do it first Skinned her.

Haitang smiled bitterly and said, "He still has some conscience. At least we still have a horse." Just as Haitang was about to stand up, a white jade plaque slipped gently from her skirt. She picked it up and took a look. It was white and flawless. A circle of exquisite carvings with the word "德" engraved in the middle.

"De?" Shuang'er rolled her eyes, "I don't know you!"

But if any of Ling Xue and the others were there, they would immediately recognize that this was the token of Prince De's palace.

Seeing that Shuang'er didn't recognize her, Haitang had no choice but to put away the white jade tablet first.Xin said, Kyoto is indeed much more complicated than Yuehu Town, and it's better to keep your mind off other people's business in the future, if you do, the carriages will be gone!
It took less than two hours to get from Guandi Temple to Kyoto. After noon, when Shuang'er and the people from Prince Duan's Mansion came back in a hurry, Haitang was already drowsy with this medical skill in his hand.

By the time they arrived at Cheng Mansion in Kyoto, it was almost dusk.Haitang stood at the door of Cheng Mansion, suddenly not knowing how to face it.Her father and brother haven't returned yet, but her grandmother is still inside.

Haitang smiled to herself: I'm back, I'm Cheng Haitang!
