Chapter 100 He has less than half a month left to live
Deng Youning took a quick bath in the Ninth Prince's Mansion and was now applying medicine to her wound alone.
The maids brought food, "County Lady, the prince asked the kitchen to prepare some porridge for you, please have a drink."
It had been nearly four hours, and the county lady hadn't had a single bite of water. This frightened the servants who were serving her, fearing that they would not serve her well enough and would displease the ancestor.
"Has there been any news from my cousin? How is Lord Li's injury?"
For four hours, whenever someone came in, Deng Youning would repeat this sentence.
The maid sighed, thinking that the county lady must be too anxious and has gone crazy!
"Don't worry, County Lady. Once there is a result, you don't need to urge me. The prince will come and tell you in person."
Deng Youning couldn't wait any longer.
From morning till dark, there was still no response.
She suddenly stood up from her seat, raised her legs and walked towards the door.
"County Lady, the prince is still treating Master Li, you can't go over there."
The maidservant chased after him desperately.
I know where Deng Youning is going without asking.
But Deng Youning ignored her and flew away using her Qinggong skills as soon as she walked out of the house.
In Jun Chenyi's room, several of his usual guards were guarding the door.
Apparently, he had given orders that no one should disturb him.
Nothing could be obtained from the guards, as their rhetoric was almost the same as that of the maid just now.
"You can't stop me."
"I won't disturb them. I just want to go in and take a look."
Deng Youning didn't want to fight with them.
Still patiently explaining the reason.
Several guards formed a wall and drew their swords whenever Deng Youning approached, showing no signs of adapting.
Deng Youning was also helpless and had no choice but to fight.
She was just about to use the poison when Jun Chenyi's voice came from the room.
"Let her in."
There was a hint of hoarseness and fatigue in his voice, and he sounded not in good condition.
This made Deng Youning's heart beat fast. She was a little afraid to go in, for fear that Jun Chenyi would tell her that Li Tianzhuo could not be saved.
She took slow steps, feeling like every step was on the edge of a knife.
It seems that if I take one more step, there will be an infinite abyss ahead.
“Crack—”
She pushed the door open.
There were no candles in the room, and it was pitch dark.
"cousin……"
Deng Youning called out tentatively.
"Come here."
Following the sound, she walked towards the bed. Jun Chenyi lit a dim candle at the head of the bed.
By the candlelight, Deng Youning could clearly see that Li Tianzhuo's body was covered with silver needles of various sizes, and he looked like a hedgehog. And it was as if he had been pickled in medicine. The closer you got to him, the more pungent the smell of medicine became.
"A Zhuo~"
Deng Youning shouted worriedly, but Li Tianzhuo didn't respond at all.
"It's impossible to save him with needles and herbs alone."
"I only saved his life temporarily. He only has less than half a month left."
Jun Chenyi spoke with difficulty.
He knew that Deng Youning didn't want to hear this, and he himself didn't want to say it, but that was the fact and they had no choice but to admit it.
"Is there really no way?"
Deng Youning just didn't believe it.
"He hasn't opened all eighteen layers of pulses yet, so he shouldn't die."
She took a step forward, looked carefully at Li Tianzhuo's pale face, and touched it cautiously. The temperature, as cold as a corpse, made her reflexively withdraw her hand.
"If you want to extend his life, you need someone with extremely strong skills to pass on all of his internal strength to him without reservation."
"Each time I pass on my skills, I can extend my life by ten years."
Jun Chenyi spoke calmly and stated the only solution.
Suddenly, Deng Youning felt full of hope.
"Use mine!"
"Although I don't dare to claim to be a strong man, but even if I can extend his life by one year, it would be great."
When she first returned to Beijing, she tried her best to preserve her martial arts, but at this moment, she could devote all of it to Li Tianzhuo without hesitation.
In his previous life, he was willing to sacrifice his own life to avenge himself.
In this life, he can once again sacrifice his life to protect his own safety.
Not to mention martial arts, even if her life was taken away, Deng Youning would be happy to do it.
She had accomplished everything she wanted to do most in this world.
No regrets.
I just hope that Li Tianzhuo can live to be a hundred years old and not die so early and so miserably like in his previous life!
"no."
Jun Chenyi shook his head regretfully.
Deng Youning looked up in confusion, was he dissatisfied with her martial arts skills?
"The one who teaches the skill must nurture the internal energy in his body for at least twenty years. You and I are not old enough!"
Jun Chenyi explained in a deep voice.
If it was really such a simple method of passing on power, he could give his meager internal energy to Li Tianzhuo without waiting for Deng Youning.
This made Deng Youning very troubled.
The flame of hope that had just been ignited was instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water.
"Azhuo is not from Dongji. I only know that he is from Nanxin. I guess he doesn't have any relatives or friends in Nanxin who can help him."
"But, people die for money and birds die for food. As long as we can offer the greatest benefits, there will definitely be martial artists who will come and offer their inner strength."
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, Deng Youning will never give up.
At this point, she had already planned to go to Wuying Tower to find Li Qinghuan and ask them to help spread the news that County Lord Youning was recruiting heroes to the entire Dongji martial arts world.
"Wait a minute!"
Jun Chenyi seemed to have a better idea.
"I know someone who can help me."
"But this person has a strange temper and is particularly petty. Whether he can be persuaded to give up all his martial arts to save someone who has nothing to do with him depends on fate."
"However, we can make preparations for both situations. After all, it is not easy to find the right person in the martial arts world."
Deng Youning nodded in approval.
For a martial artist, the most valuable thing is his martial arts skills.
Deng Youning didn't dare to imagine what kind of conditions she would have to offer in order to exchange for the internal strength that others had practiced for at least twenty years.
"No matter how difficult it is, I'm willing to give it a try."
"At worst, after he passes on his skills, he can use my life to pay for it."
She spoke very calmly, but Jun Chenyi was almost scared to death.
But we can't let her pay with her life.
"Don't worry, even if you have to sacrifice your life, I am still your brother. It's not your turn."
Jun Chenyi raised his eyebrows and gave a cool smile.
The person he was talking about was also from Nanxin.
Thirty-five years ago, the year when Deng Ren got into trouble, two countries in the southeast were at war, and the Deng and Han families joined forces to fight the enemy.
At that time, the commander of the two armies was the head of the Han family, who was also Han Qiongyue's biological brother.
After Nanxin was defeated, General Han captured many Nanxin soldiers, including General Feng, the Nanxin general.
If these people were brought back to Dongji, they would have been executed.
General Han couldn't bear to see the bloodshed, so he gave them the identities of ordinary Dongji people and settled them in a deep mountain on the outskirts of Beijing, allowing them to be self-sufficient and self-reliant.
Over the past thirty years or so, they have intermarried with the people of Dongji, lived a law-abiding life, and lived a relatively comfortable life.
They were grateful to General Han and even the entire Han family for being able to survive for thirty-five years.
"So, the person you asked me to find is General Feng?"
Deng Youning understood that Jun Chenyi was trying to repay a favor.
