"One coin of skullcap root, one coin of goldthread, two coins of phellodendron, one coin of licorice, one coin of mung bean, one coin of honeysuckle, half a coin of forsythia …"
Inside the Taiyuan Courier Station, Gong Sun Liang picked up a brush and wrote two prescriptions on a piece of paper without hesitation. The Alchemy Apprentice who came in with him frowned, but due to Gong Sun Liang's prestige, he didn't say anything.
After a while, Gong Sun Liang finally put away the brush and handed the prescriptions to the medicine boy, saying, "Xiao Bao, take these two prescriptions and quickly go back to the medicine hall to get the herbs. Let your senior brother pick the best herbs! Go and come back quickly! "
"… Oh! Yes! Master! "
The medicine boy wanted to say something but hesitated, but in the end, he took the prescriptions and turned to leave.
Dugu Feiying stepped forward and grabbed the medicine boy, saying, "This place is not close to the Rejuvenation Hall, I will ride a horse and take you there! This way, we can save a lot of time! "
He did not forget that before Master Lu left, he said that if the Hook Kiss poison in Dugu Xin's body was not cured within two hours, he would die without a doubt! Although Gong Sun Liang in front of him had promised to save Dugu Xin, Dugu Feiying did not dare to risk his brother's life!
In fact, since Gong Sun Liang could boast, then the two hours were invalid. Even if the medicine boy could not come back within two hours, he had his own way to ensure that Dugu Xin would not die!
The medicine boy looked back at Gong Sun Liang and saw that Gong Sun Liang was smiling without saying anything, so he nodded in agreement. "Thank you, General!"
After saying that, the two walked out of the post house together.
Inside the room, Gong Sun Liang opened the medicine box and took out a wooden box with twenty-four gold needles. He waved to Iron Egg who was standing beside Li Tai and said, "Kid, come and help this old man lift this general up and take off his clothes. This old man wants to give him the needles!"
Li Tai frowned and complained in his heart, "Is this old man still holding a grudge? Is that why he's called Iron Egg and not me? "
In fact, this was completely Li Tai thinking too much. Although Gong Sun Liang had an eccentric temperament, he was already seventy to eighty years old. His tolerance was not small to the point of being angry with a child. The reason why he called for Iron Egg to come over and help instead of Li Tai was because in terms of physique, Iron Egg was stronger than Li Tai. Moreover, Li Tai was the King of Wei. Even if he did not put him in his eyes, he could not so blatantly order him around. Otherwise, Li Tai's subordinates would jump out and accuse him. He did not want to cause trouble!
"Oh ~!"
Iron Egg, who was suddenly called out, was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he quickly walked forward and helped Dugu Xin up from the bed. He also took off the latter's shirt. Suddenly, Dugu Xin's strong muscles and the wounds on his body that had only been treated were exposed to the air.
"This old man is going to perform acupuncture. I need some peace and quiet. The fewer people in the room, the better!"
Gong Sun Liang took out a golden needle from the needle box. He did not immediately insert it but turned to Li Tai and the others.
Li Tai frowned, but he did not say anything. He waved at the guards in the room and said, "All of you, leave!"
"Understood!"
Although the imperial guards were worried about Dugu Xin's injuries and Li Tai's safety, they still left.
Apart from Dugu Xin and Gong Sun Liang, only Li Tai, Iron Egg, and Wang Yu were left in the room!
As for Qin Huaiyu, Meng Wenhao, Mo Chui, and the others, they were at the Longshan Boy Temple. After learning of Dugu Xin's assassination, Li Tai did not stop their plan to build a telegraph relay station. On one hand, he arranged for Qin Huaiyu, Mo Chui, and the others to proceed as planned. On the other hand, he and Dugu Feiying rushed back to the courier station to rescue Dugu Xin!
Seeing that the room was finally spacious, Gong Sun Liang nodded in satisfaction. He held his breath and focused his mind. His aura suddenly changed, becoming serious and serious. He was like a completely different person from before! Then, he raised the golden needle and inserted it into the Tiantu acupoint on Dugu Xin's chest. The speed of his insertion was as fast as lightning. It was not a speed that an old man of his age could possess.
Then, Gong Sun Liang took out the golden needles from the wooden box and inserted them into Dugu Xin's Xuanji acupoint, Shenzang acupoint, Huagai acupoint, Shanzhong acupoint, and Jiuwei acupoint. The six golden needles stood proudly on Dugu Xin's chest. Immediately afterward, Gong Sun Liang placed his right hand an inch above the six golden needles. The six golden needles seemed to be driven by an invisible force and began to vibrate rhythmically. A few drops of sweat appeared on Gong Sun Liang's forehead at this time!
Controlling the needles with Qi!
Who would have thought that this frail old man in front of them was actually a "martial artist"? He could even control the needles with Qi?
Iron Egg, who was closest to Gong Sun Liang, could not help but widen his eyes in shock. Obviously, he did not expect Gong Sun Liang to practice Neigong.
Looking at Dugu Xin's chest, the chest that was originally covered in black gas was gradually returning to its normal color.
After a while, Gong Sun Liang let out a sigh of relief and put down his palm. The golden needles naturally stopped vibrating, but the old man had no intention of withdrawing the needles.
Taking advantage of this gap, Iron Egg could not help but ask, "Mr. Gong Sun Liang, did you use Qi to control the needles? Could it be that Mr. Gong Sun Liang also practiced Neigong? "
Iron Egg was also a martial artist. Although his martial arts realm was not high, he could still clearly feel that Gong Sun Liang had transferred his Qi into Dugu Xin's acupoints through the golden needles. That was why he asked this question.
Gong Sun Liang was sitting on the couch with his eyes closed at this time. When he heard Iron Egg's question, he opened his eyes and looked at Iron Egg with interest. Then, he smiled and said, "Oh, I didn't know that you were also a martial artist! Moreover, your eyesight and knowledge are good. At such a young age, you actually know how to control the needles with Qi! Who is your master? "
Although Gong Sun Liang did not directly answer Iron Egg's question, he tacitly agreed with Iron Egg's guess!
Hearing this, Li Tai, who was standing to the side, widened his eyes in shock. Although he was not a martial artist and had never practiced Medicine, he had still heard of using Qi to control needles! Previously, when Li Gang was injured by Wu Jie, his life was in danger. It was Sun Simiao, Li Zexuan, and Xuan Qing, these three top medical masters, who worked together to control the needles with Qi, that pulled Li Gang back from the gates of hell. Li Tai never expected that on this trip to Taiyuan, he would meet a master like Sun Simiao who could control needles with Qi!
At this moment, Li Tai didn't dare underestimate Gong Sun Liang in the slightest!
Iron Egg thought for a moment and answered truthfully, "My master is the current Marquis of Yong 'an Li Zexuan, who is also the Yamachō of Yanhuang College. My master and Daoist Sun of the college both know how to control needles with Qi, and I have seen both of them before, so I could recognize them!"
"Oh!"
Gong Sun Liang let out a long 'oh'. It was unknown whether he had really heard of Li Zexuan or was pretending to have heard of him. After a moment, he asked, "The Daoist Sun you are talking about, is it Sun Simiao? He actually went to Yanhuang College? "
Li Tai couldn't help but say at this time, "Daoist Sun is naturally the Doctor Sun that everyone praises. He is now in the medical school of our college. In addition to Doctor Sun, our medical school has many masters with superb medical skills. Even many respected doctors from the Imperial Medical Department have joined our medical school. In time, our medical school will definitely be able to cultivate many students with superb medical skills!"
As a student of Yanhuang College, naturally, he was proud of Yanhuang College. Moreover, Li Tai had another intention in saying this, which was to make Gong Sun Liang interested in Yanhuang College. If he could directly attract Gong Sun Liang to join Yanhuang College, that would be even better! He believed that Li Zexuan would definitely remember his merit!
After all, although the words of this old man in front of him were not very pleasing, he still had some real skills!
"Oh! Yanhuang College! "
Gong Sun Liang smacked his lips and didn't say anything more. After adjusting his breath for a moment, he stood up and said to Wang Yu, "This old man just used a golden needle to protect the general's heart meridian to ensure that the poison won't enter his lungs in a short period of time. The poison of datura is relatively mild in nature, but it is like a gangrene attached to the bone and is extremely difficult to eradicate. The poison of hook kiss is extremely poisonous, like a flood or a fierce beast.
These two poisons, under normal circumstances, are difficult to achieve the effect of fighting poison with poison. However, the two medicines this old man prescribed are used to induce the two poisons in the general's body and balance the power of the two poisons so that they can be used to fight poison with poison. After Xiaobao brings the herbs here, boil the medicine near the post house and then feed it to the general! This old man will administer the needles from the side to ensure that the two poisons will not harm the general's heart meridian! "
Hearing this, whether it was Wang Yu, Li Tai, or Iron Egg, all of them gasped. Under normal circumstances, when a patient was poisoned, the first thing a doctor would do was to detoxify the patient. However, this old man in front of them not only did not detoxify Dugu Xin, but also directly used the power of the medicinal stone to induce the poison to act up in advance for fear that it would take too long for the poison to take effect. This kind of medicine was simply too radical and too bold, wasn't it?
Wang Yu looked at Gong Sun Liang with a strange expression and then asked tentatively, "Mr. Gong Sun, are you confident?"
Gong Sun Liang smiled confidently and said, "Of course! Didn't this old man say at the beginning that I have a 90% chance of eliminating the poison in the general's body? "
Hearing this, everyone was speechless again.
At the very beginning, Gong Sun Liang did say this, but at that time, this old man didn't even take Dugu Xin's pulse. Everyone knew that it was just a formality and couldn't be taken seriously, but who would have thought that this old man would actually take it seriously!
Could it be that no matter what kind of person he treated, he would say that he had a 90% chance? Or was it that for him, 90% and 10% were almost the same, with the probability of failure?
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by someone saying, "Reporting to Your Highness, the Bing Province Provincial Governor requests an audience!"
