During the entire healing process, Yun Sheng stood to the side and watched without saying a word.
When Great Magus Yang taunted her and asked her to take over the next step of the treatment, she didn't back down at all.
She ordered the two villagers who were carrying the village chief in, "Uncle Li, prepare a few clean and thin reeds for me, a few bamboo sticks as thick as an arm, and some good liquor.
"Uncle Zhao, prepare salt and sugar for me, a large amount of warm water, and a few white creek stones."
Yun Sheng's words didn't sound like it had anything to do with the treatment.
Great Magus Yang sneered at the side. He wanted to see what Yun Sheng could do.
At this moment, Ye Beiming had also walked out of the house. He had also heard the argument between Yun Sheng and Great Magus Yang.
She clearly knew that Great Magus Yang was a dangerous black magician, but she still wanted to compete with him.
That night, she said, "I, Yun Sheng, have never failed to cure a patient."
Where did her confidence and arrogance come from? She was just a six year old girl.
The things that Yun Sheng needed were quickly prepared. Outside the temple, everyone, including Grandma Liu, was anxiously waiting for the results of the village chief's treatment.
The few villagers who had sent the village chief back were also full of doubts.
When the village chief was injured, they had also looked for the pharmacists in Taishang Town. Almost everyone said the same thing as Great Magus Yang: they couldn't save him.
How could they bet the village chief's life on a six-year-old girl?
Would a miracle really happen?
In the Dharma Temple, Yun Sheng was already fully equipped. The treatment this time was much more difficult than the treatment with the two-headed hound.
What Yun Sheng was about to do now was beyond the knowledge of the Boundless World.
Fortunately, there were only four people present in the temple.
The two villagers didn't know anything about medicine. Great Magician Yang only knew about magic healing and magic potions. He didn't know much about ancient medicine. As for Ye Beiming, he was blind. Yun Sheng had already thought it through. At worst, she would just say that this set of medical skills was passed down by her mother.
Yun Sheng took out a set of bone needles and a uniquely shaped scalpel made of animal bones.
Great Magus Yang raised his eyebrows, but didn't pay too much attention to it.
Just as Yun Sheng thought, the difference between ancient medicine and magic treatment was like the difference between mountains. For thousands of years, although the two had been fighting and competing with each other, there had never been a magician or a doctor who really crossed the line to understand each other.
Yun Sheng mixed the salt, sugar, and white creek stone powder together. (White Creek Stone is a special fermentation stone used by the commoners of the Boundless Continent to make various kinds of pasta. It contains a portion of sodium hydrogen phthalate, which is the modern definition of soda powder.)
Dehydration was an extremely dangerous situation on the Boundless Continent. Only a magician who was proficient in water magic and above could treat it.
However, for a magician of that level, let alone a village like Banana Leaf Village, there were only a few in an entire country. These people had long been conferred the title of Marquis. It was even more impossible for them to come to a remote place like Banana Leaf Village to treat commoners.
That was why Great Magus Yang said that the village chief couldn't be saved.
What was that? Was there a medicine that could be made with salt, sugar, and stone powder?
Was there such a medicine among ancient medicines?
Great Magus Yang watched as Yun Sheng first fed the village chief a few mouthfuls of medicine, but she quickly gave up on feeding him.
This was because Yun Sheng discovered that the village chief's pupils were already showing signs of dilation. His breathing was also becoming disordered. Also, his pulse was gradually weakening. This was a sign of severe dehydration in his body, causing his internal organs to fail.
It was too late to only use oral rehydration salt and sugar. Yun Sheng had already prepared for the worst.
She quickly laid the village chief flat. Then, she took out two bamboo joints and a very flexible reed rod that had only one hole. She connected the two together to form a simple injection device.
Severe dehydration required intravenous injection.
They could only directly replenish his body fluids. Yun Sheng's beautiful brows furrowed tightly. Her slender fingers tightly gripped the syringe. She activated the Jade Marrow Technique in her body and silently injected her internal energy into the flexible reed rod.
The reed rod immediately tightened like a metal needle and pierced into the village chief's vein.
Under the effect of the Jade Marrow Technique, the salt and sugar in the bamboo joints flowed through the veins and rapidly replenished the village chief's lost body fluid.
After the injection, the village head's pulse gradually stabilized. His chest, which was originally faintly rising and falling, started to rise and fall more obviously. His grayish-white lips also started to regain color.
When the village chief opened his eyes with difficulty, he let out a weak cry. "Xiao Sheng, it's you."
Yun Sheng's hand, which was holding the infusion device, trembled slightly.
The most difficult moment had passed. For the remaining internal injuries, she only needed to use the Soul-Curing Divine Needle a few more times.
Two dimples appeared on her sweaty cheeks. She bent down and whispered into the village chief's ear, "Welcome back, Grandpa Village Chief."
Great Magus Yang was dumbstruck. The two villagers in Ye Beiming Temple were instantly overjoyed. One of them went forward to check, while the other hurriedly ran out to report the victory to the other villagers.
A moment later, there was a hubbub of voices outside the temple. The villagers rushed in like a tide, squeezing the temple's door until it was on the verge of collapsing.
Grandma Liu staggered in with the help of someone. When she saw the village chief, who had already woken up, she couldn't help but cry.
Yun Sheng indicated for the villagers not to disturb the village chief. He still needed to rest.
Grandma Liu walked to the village chief's side. The two pairs of hands, which had experienced the vicissitudes of life, held tightly together. Just as they had promised back then, they would stay in Banana Leaf Village together and grow old together.
Yun Sheng's success meant that Great Magus Yang had failed.
Even though he had expended his magic power to save the village chief, in the eyes of the villagers of Banana Leaf Village, the person who had saved the village chief wasn't him, but Yun Sheng.
Great Magus Yang witnessed this scene and was filled with jealousy and hatred. He glanced at Yun Sheng and only said a few words. "Good, very good. Let's wait and see."
Yun Sheng retreated to the side like a bystander. She just watched quietly, as if she wasn't the one who had used her medical skills to save the dying and heal the injured.
This operation wasn't completely fruitless for Yun Sheng.
She felt that her Jade Marrow Technique had improved a lot during the treatment. Her other cultivation techniques had also improved to varying degrees.
Medical skills and the Yan family's cultivation techniques really complemented each other.
Yun Sheng looked indifferent, but if someone were to look into Yun Sheng's eyes, they would definitely notice something.
Her gaze was deep like a demonic beast that had been accumulating power for a long time.
The village chief's injuries wouldn't be in vain.
The people of Flaming Rock Village would definitely pay with blood!
