Chapter 21 The Conflicted Hua Baifeng
Chapter 21 The Conflicted Hua Baifeng
There is a plum blossom grove at the foot of the mountain.
There is an elegant little courtyard in the woods, which is the home of Mr. Mei Da, the elder brother of Mr. Mei Er.
However, Mr. Mei also often lives here.
Before the formal treatment, Mr. Mei had a talk with Hua Baifeng and Gu Yu respectively.
"Madam, your symptoms are somewhat unusual; you should be mentally prepared..."
After Mr. Mei left, Hua Baifeng's expression kept changing, and she was struggling and tormenting inside.
Shen San Niang walked in and sighed, "I heard everything outside."
Hua Baifeng sighed, "Third Sister, my heart is in turmoil, I don't know... I don't know what to do."
"I understand your difficulties, Madam. But no matter what, this is for healing, and I'm afraid it's hard to find any other way."
Hua Baifeng remained silent, still struggling internally.
"Madam, Young Master Gu is Li Tanhua's brother. Don't you trust him?"
Upon hearing the mention of Li Xunhuan, Hua Baifeng couldn't help but say, "Third Sister, when I went there last night, Li Xunhuan told me a secret."
"What secret?"
"He said..." Hua Baifeng let out a long sigh, "Back then, Madam Bai bribed the midwife and secretly switched my child while I was unconscious..."
at the same time.
Mr. Mei then found Gu Yu and explained it to him.
Gu Yu looked surprised: "Huh? Does it have to be this way?"
Mr. Mei nodded: "That's necessary!"
"Alright, I'm fine with it, but I'm afraid the lady might find it hard to accept, after all, she's a woman."
Mr. Mei said, "Don't worry, she will definitely agree. Besides, this is for healing, not for the two of you... you understand."
Gu Yu smiled and said, "Of course I understand. In short, I still stand by what I said: I don't care, I will definitely cooperate fully."
Mr. Mei added, "Also, when you circulate your internal energy, you must absorb the cold poison from her body into your own."
"Oh?"
"Don't worry, you'll be fine. Your fiery true energy is the nemesis of the cold poison."
"What if something happens? How will you make it up to me?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Mei jumped up in anger, looking ashamed and annoyed: "You don't believe in Mr. Mei's medical skills?"
Gu Yu smiled and said, "Of course I believe it, but there's always a chance of something going wrong."
"Fine, if anything happens to you, Mr. Mei will pay with his life!"
"It's decided then!"
The specific treatment plan consists of three steps—
Step one, place your palms together!
Hua Baifeng sat cross-legged on the futon, her pretty face as red as a ripe cherry, delicate and alluring.
She wore only a strapless top and loose, knee-length silk trousers.
Although it was to treat the cold poison, she still felt somewhat ashamed.
Gu Yu was dressed even more lightly, wearing only a pair of shorts.
"Madam, please forgive me!"
As he spoke, Gu Yu sat cross-legged on another futon.
"Thank you... thank you for your trouble, Young Master Gu..."
Hua Baifeng closed her eyes tightly, spoke in a trembling voice, and then stretched out her palms.
The two palms were pressed together.
At that moment, Gu Yu's heart skipped a beat.
Hua Baifeng's small hands were unusually soft and gentle, as if boneless.
"Ahem, Madam, shall we begin?"
"Um!"
So, Gu Yu calmed his mind and his true energy flowed continuously into his palm, then through Hua Baifeng's palm into the meridians of her body.
This step is similar to marrow cleansing.
Hua Baifeng was poisoned by cold, her blood and qi were damaged, and her true qi was not flowing smoothly. Therefore, the extreme yang heat of the Nine Yang Divine Skill was used to unblock her meridians.
At first, Hua Baifeng felt warm all over, as if she were soaking in a hot spring, and felt indescribably comfortable.
But before long, she felt the true energy surging into her body getting hotter and hotter, causing her skin to turn red and sweat to seep out continuously, even evaporating into wisps of mist.
Her hair was wet, as were her tube top and silk trousers, which clung to her body, outlining her alluring curves.
Hua Baifeng's breathing grew heavier and heavier, and she sweated more and more, filling the entire room with a peculiar fragrance.
She felt she couldn't take it anymore, as if she were being roasted over a fire.
At that moment, Gu Yu's voice came from beside her: "Madam, focus all your energy on circulating your true energy, and do not let your mind wander!"
"Um!"
Hua Baifeng responded and did as instructed.
Sure enough, when she circulated her true energy to its fullest extent, the burning sensation lessened considerably.
Little did Gu Yu know that he was somewhat distracted at this moment.
When he reminded Hua Baifeng, he opened his eyes and saw her appearance, which was simply a fatal temptation.
Beneath her soaked tube top, two enormous things were hidden.
Her legs were long, shapely, and full.
Her jade feet were crystal clear, just like white mutton fat jade.
I really want to...
Can't think any more!
Gu Yu took a deep breath, shook his head, and shook off those chaotic thoughts.
After all, this is a crucial time for healing through internal energy cultivation.
According to Mr. Mei's estimate, the first step should take at least a day. Unexpectedly, it only took three hours for Hua Baifeng to feel that all the meridians in her body were clear.
"Haha, that's great, that's great! I didn't expect you to be so skilled, young friend. This will save you a lot of time."
Mr. Mei was so happy that he danced with joy; anyone who didn't know better would think he was the patient.
The next step is the second step: medicinal steaming!
Steaming is not about heating with fire, but rather about using the properties of Gu Yu's Nine Yang Divine Skill to enhance the medicinal properties, making it easier for Hua Baifeng to absorb and resolve the cold toxins in her body.
Hua Baifeng was dressed the same as last time, her face flushed, and she slowly sat cross-legged in the wooden tub.
This bucket is very large, and it's half full of water. When you sit cross-legged, the water level is just up to your chest.
After she was ready, Gu Yu also stepped into the bathtub, sat cross-legged behind Hua Baifeng, and placed his palms on her back.
"Madam, are you ready?"
"Um!"
Hua Baifeng responded softly.
"Then I shall begin!"
This is the most crucial step. Not only must the medicinal effects be activated to neutralize the cold poison, but Gu Yu must also do his best to absorb the cold poison from Hua Baifeng's body into his own, and then use the Nine Yang Divine Skill to neutralize it.
As the two began to circulate their internal energy, the water in the bucket slowly became scalding hot, and steam filled the air.
Before long, a chill seeped into Gu Yu's meridians, causing him to shiver involuntarily, and frost instantly formed on his hair and eyebrows.
What a potent cold poison!
Only then did Gu Yu truly feel the pain of the cold poison's invasion, and he wondered how Hua Baifeng had endured all these years.
With a thought, he activated the Nine Yang Divine Skill at full power, his skin turned bright red, and the medicinal liquid in the bucket began to bubble as if boiling.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the skin gradually returned to normal, and the water in the bucket stopped bubbling.
The cold air continued to seep into his body, and frost formed on his hair again.
Gu Yu once again activated the Nine Yang Divine Skill to its fullest extent, and the medicinal liquid in the bucket boiled once more.
After repeating this process more than ten times, the cold energy surging into the meridians finally began to weaken.
This time, it lasted a full ten hours. Fortunately, the Nine Yang Divine Skill was quite special, allowing internal energy to circulate and regenerate on its own; otherwise, Gu Yu probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.
After making the diagnosis, Mr. Mei burst into laughter.
"Excellent, excellent! Most of the cold poison in Madam's body has been expelled. This method is truly wonderful, truly wonderful! Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Baifeng was overjoyed and quickly said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Mei, and thank you very much, Young Hero Gu!"
Gu Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing, Madam, you don't need to be so polite!"
Mr. Mei said, "Please take a moment to catch your breath, and then we will prepare for the third step..."
