After spitting out the congested blood, Jie Xu felt much more awake. The main reason he fainted was that the congested blood had sealed his meridians and some of his nervous system.
Now that everything was settled, Jie Feixuan felt much better.
Although it was still impossible for him to walk on the ground, the basic ability to speak was not a big problem.
Seeing everyone's worry and Lin Ge's self-blame, Jie Xu said weakly, "Brother, it's not your fault … It's all thanks to you that I'm still alive … I feel like God is saying that I'm not destined to die … I'm still useful. I won't die."
Hearing that Jie Xu could speak again, everyone was relieved.
It seemed like there would be no problem.
"Although he's still a little weak when speaking, with his body, it won't take long for him to recover." Xu Yun patted Jie Xu. "Don't talk anymore. Circulate your energy and hold your breath. I'll help you remove the needles."
Jie Xu nodded and quieted down.
Xu Yun began to remove the needles. Every needle was stained with black blood. This was normal because the more fragile capillaries would rupture under certain circumstances. The needles that Xu Yun removed for Jie Xu were the congested blood in his body. When the capillaries ruptured, the local pain-relieving substance would be released, and the capillaries would be regenerated. The pain would also disappear.
This meant that it was effective.
After Xu Yun removed all the needles, Jie Xu's back was full of bloody holes.
Bai Xiaoye sighed. "How painful is this? I'm trembling just looking at it. "
"If it's smooth, it won't be painful. If it's painful, it won't be smooth." Xu Yun smiled. "This is the theory of pain in the Yellow Emperor's Internal Canon. This is what traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes."
"Is it really okay?" Zuo Meiyan was in disbelief. "This is a bit contradictory. Does it mean that it won't be painful if it's smooth? It might not be a good thing if it's smooth … "
Xu Yun could not help but laugh. "When did you become so serious?"
"I've always been serious when it comes to important matters like this." Zuo Meiyan said, "There are pros and cons to everything."
"You're right. The literal interpretation of these words is indeed somewhat doubtful, but it can't be considered a paradox." Xu Yun said, "Actually, what he means is that if it doesn't hurt, it means that it might work, but if it hurts, it definitely won't work. Why do you have to be so serious with the ancients? "
Zuo Meiyan shrugged nonchalantly. "As long as you think he has."
Xu Yun pursed his lips. "Did you see that? She still doesn't quite believe me."
Now that Jie Xu's life was no longer in danger, Jiang Hong and Jiang Zixue felt a lot more relieved. Previously, when Jie Xu's body was still in danger, their hearts were hanging in mid-air.
"It's good to see that you're fine." Jiang Hong held it in for a long time before he said, "Because of us, you've suffered so much. I … I really feel bad about it."
Jie Hypocrisy, on the other hand, didn't seem to mind. "I really feel bad seeing you like this. But I'm an easy-going person. I'm not a busybody. "
"I'm sorry."
"You're welcome." Jie Xu said, "When I said that I wanted to work for Xu Yun, I was already prepared to face today's situation. So I don't blame you. "
"Then you blame me?" Xu Yun was speechless. "I didn't say that I wanted you to go through fire and water with me. I didn't want you to risk your life by following me."
Jie Xu shrugged his shoulders. "But that's what I think."
"There's something wrong with your position." Xu Yun said, "Cut the crap. Just stay at home and recuperate. What can be treated is only your superficial condition. You still need to recuperate from your internal injuries bit by bit. Don't waste it."
Jie Xu nodded. "Don't worry. If I'm crippled, I won't waste my days by your side."
"You said it yourself." Xu Yun said, "Then you really need to treat it carefully and slowly. If you're really crippled, then scram to the entrance of Sky Entertainment Building to be a security guard. I believe that you'll be able to do that job even if you're crippled. "
Jie Xu chuckled.
It turned out that Xu Yun had already seen through him. From the day Jie Xu came, he had no intention of becoming a security guard. Being a security guard was just a cover for him.
As an expert, how could he be willing to stay in a security guard's office?
Jie Xu wanted to become someone like Lin Ge, someone who could be Xu Yun's right-hand man.
Jie Xu was about the same age as Xu Yun. Unfortunately, his childhood luck was much worse than Xu Yun's.
Jie Xu was born in the Xianghu area. The people there were tough. When he was born, it was quite chaotic.
Jie Xu's father was a well-known troublemaker. Therefore, many people liked to look for him to do some despicable and shameless things.
Because of this, Jie Xu's father got into big trouble and ran away. His mother was also harmed.
Jie Xu experienced this when he just started to understand things. At a young age, he couldn't do anything. He was sold to human traffickers by some black-hearted people.
Jie Xu's background was even more complicated than the others'.
Before his training, he had been sold to a remote and desolate place to be the son of a village idiot who could not find a wife and had no ability to have children.
Just like that, Jie Xu endured for a year.
During this year, his "family" beat and scolded him. When he had food to eat and cold water to drink, it was the best time of Jie Xu's childhood.
This was because the "father" who bought him was an idiot. He was mentally ill and had a short temper.
When he was normal, it was normal. However, when he acted up, he would beat Jie Xu to death.
Even so, Jie Xu endured.
Once, Jie Xu's "father" acted up again. Jie Xu didn't manage to escape in time. His arm was broken and he was thrown onto the streets of the village.
At that time, Jie Xu was covered in bruises and his face was covered in blood. It was also at that time that Jie Xu, who was not even five years old, had the idea of "killing"!
At that moment, he really wanted to use a butcher's knife to stab his "father" in the throat. Just like how a butcher drained the blood of a pig, he wanted to drain the blood of this bastard who had beaten him black and blue!
However, that was just a thought. After all, Jie Xu was not even five years old at that time.
That day, Jie Xu didn't dare to go home. He was really pitiful after being beaten up …
Fortunately, there was a widow living in the same remote village.
It was said that she was also sold as a daughter-in-law. She wasn't very bright either. However, the villagers called her a jinx.
That was because she had only been married for three years. Her family of six, including her husband and two-year-old child, tried to pull a cart into the city. In the end, they flipped over and fell into a ravine.
Because she was a little dumb and had been sold, her family didn't dare to bring her into the city that day. That was why she was spared.
It was also because of her stupidity that she stayed here.
It was such a remote village. In the context of society in the 1990s, there was no way she could leave this remote village.
Not to mention that there were no telephones in the 1990s. Even in the 21st century, there were many people in remote villages who had never seen a cell phone before.
At that time, the place where Jie Xu lived did not even have electricity! Kerosene lamps were not something that ordinary families could afford. At the very least, the family that he had been sold to could not afford kerosene lamps.
The widow's house could not afford kerosene lamps either.
However, that day, the widow bought a bottle of kerosene because she had brought poor Jie Xu back to her house. Although the widow wasn't very bright and was a little dumb, she understood things.
She knew that if Jie Xu had nowhere to go, he would definitely freeze to death outside in such a cold winter.
Not only did the widow treat Jie Xu's wounds, she even made hot noodles for him.
Actually, the widow wasn't dumb. She definitely wasn't as dumb as others thought. She was probably drugged when she was kidnapped and her brain was fried. That was how she ended up like this.
The widow made Jie Xu feel the warmth of the world. This was something that Jie Xu would never forget in his life.
However, it was because of this incident that Jie Xu's "father" was completely enraged!
He came to the widow's house angrily and taught her a lesson. He felt that she was meddling in other people's business!
However, at that moment, the man had evil thoughts. Although he was infertile, it didn't mean that he didn't have the desire to do it. The widow was living alone and she had been sold. What could he do?!
At that time, the man threw caution to the wind and pounced on the widow. In front of Jie Xu, he forced himself on the widow …
Jie Xu didn't understand anything at that time. However, he could see the widow's pained expression.
After everything was over, the man dragged a dazed Jie Xu out of the widow's house. The widow's eyes were filled with tears. She pitied Jie Xu as well as herself …
When it came to fate, there was a world of difference. Some people were born to be the "nation's husband" while others were born to be tortured!
