Chapter 383: Hearing the Song and Taking the Gu
Master Ning's expression changed several times.
He was very scared.
If His Royal Highness Prince Ling hadn't insisted on inviting Shen Tingsi over, if he had insisted on not opening the coffin...
Then, my father would really die in vain!
He almost became the indirect murderer of his father.
Master Ning knelt down in front of Xie Yingmian with a thud.
"Please Princess Ling, please save my father."
"As long as you can save my father, the Ningguo Mansion will definitely repay you for saving my life."
Master Ning kowtowed to Xie Yingmian.
Xie Yingmian could tell from the little expressions when Master Ning interacted with Yu Lingye that Master Ning was an old man with an interesting personality.
Her personality is somewhat similar to that of her senior brother, Doctor Cui, but it is not offensive.
Master Ning thought to himself, isn’t it?
He and Cui Yi were close friends, but the Ningguo Mansion and the Cui family were too big to attract attention, and countless eyes were staring at them. They could only pretend not to know each other, and they had to do it secretly when they occasionally got together to drink, which was so annoying.
"Lord Ning, please get up first." Xie Yingmian said, "I can save Duke Ning, but there are some things I must explain to you clearly."
"The Gu used by the Ningguo Duke is called the Fragrance Seeking Gu."
"The Gu worm in Duke Ningguo's body is a female one. Female Gu are very quiet and generally won't cause harm to the human body. However, there is one exception: the death of the female Gu."
"When the mother Gu senses the death of her offspring, she goes crazy. This madness causes Duke Ningguo to suffer a cardiac arrest, plunging him into a state of suspended animation."
"Duke Ningguo must have noticed it long ago and took a medicine to protect the last trace of his heart."
"If we want to save him, we must first remove the Gu. The process is very complicated, and Duke Ningguo's heart pulse is very weak. I cannot guarantee 100% success, please be aware of this."
Master Ning nodded.
He understands everything.
The old man is dead, and no matter how unsuccessful it is, it won't be worse than the original situation.
"I know everything you said, just do it."
"Whatever problems arise, I will take responsibility for them."
"There is another problem. My hand is injured and I can't use a needle to remove the poisonous insect." Xie Yingmian said.
Master Ning's hopes were dashed. He hesitated, "Then... would the imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital be okay? Would your senior brother Cui Yi be okay?"
Xie Yingmian smiled and said, "Master Ning, don't worry."
"Every profession has its own expertise. My senior brother is a good doctor, but removing the Gu requires a professional. Wen Ge beside me can do it."
"Wen Ge, I leave it to you."
Only then did Master Ning notice Wen Ge.
When he saw Wen Ge's face, Master Ning frowned slightly.
Is it an illusion?
Why did he feel that this girl Wen Ge looked familiar?
At the same time, he felt a little regretful.
Although the scars on Miss Wen Ge's face were very faint, one could still vaguely see that they were very hideous and terrifying.
If it weren't for these scars, she would be a very pretty girl.
Wen Ge saluted Master Ning in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
She walked to the side of Duke Ningguo.
There were too many people watching, and Wen Ge was a little nervous.
She took a deep breath and untied the Ningguo Duke's shroud.
During these two days, except for the time spent eating, sleeping and going to the toilet, she practiced the art of removing poison taught by the princess.
I've practiced so many times that it has become muscle memory.
She picked up the silver needle and her eyes became sharp.
The needle insertion technique is fast and steady.
After dozens of silver needles fell on Duke Ningguo's chest, something on his chest kept rising and falling and struggling.
The shape and appearance are clearly those of a bug.
Master Ning no longer had any doubts.
He stared at Wen Ge nervously.
Wen Ge was so engrossed in the conversation that he automatically blocked out everything outside.
After the silver needle forced the insect to a safe place.
Wen Ge picked up a sharp knife and pierced Duke Ningguo's skin.
A pool of black blood flowed out.
Along with the black blood, a pitch-black worm also flowed out.
"Brazier!" Wen Ge shouted these two words in a hoarse voice.
Master Ning immediately handed over the brazier.
Wen Ge threw all the insects and black blood into the brazier.
There was a crackling sound in the brazier.
As the insects burned, a rich, strange fragrance filled the entire mourning hall.
This scent is very special.
Anyone who smelled it couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"It smells so good, can you smell it?"
"I smell it. What's that fragrance? I've never smelled anything so good."
"Yes, this is superior to any incense."
"Don't be silly, don't you see that the fragrance is coming from the burning insects?"
"Yes, but this fragrance is so good that it's hard to resist."
Shen Tingsi asked Xie Yingmian: "Does this fragrance have any side effects?"
Xie Yingmian: "Yes, but it's not a big problem."
Xie Yingmian asked Yu Lingye to give Shen Tingsi a garlic.
"Garlic can solve it."
Shen Tingsi didn't like the smell of garlic and frowned.
"You can throw it away if you don't want it." Yu Lingye said.
Xie Yingmian said, "You can throw it away, but bees and butterflies will probably like the scent that people like. I just don't know if it will attract bees or butterflies."
Shen Tingsi stopped throwing the garlic.
Being chased by butterflies is okay, but being chased by bees is too miserable.
It's just the smell of garlic, it's not something he can't tolerate.
Wen Ge stared intently at the bleeding wound.
It didn't stop until blood started flowing from the wound.
She used strong liquor to disinfect, sutured Ningguo Duke's wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it.
"The poison has been removed." Wen Ge said to Master Ning with difficulty, "The heart and pulse are weak. It needs to be revived."
Master Ning didn't know why Wen Ge was having so much trouble speaking.
He didn't bother to think about anything, just nodded heavily: "Recover if you want to."
"Do whatever you want, and tell me if you need anything."
Wen Ge nodded and quickly wrote down what was needed.
When Master Ning saw Wen Ge's words, he felt a stronger sense of familiarity.
He was sure that he had seen Wen Ge.
Not only had he seen Wen Ge, he had also seen the words written by Wen Ge.
It was strange, he had never remembered a girl named Wen Ge.
Where have I seen him before?
Wen Ge didn't know what Master Ning was thinking.
After instructing Master Ning on what was needed, she concentrated on using the cardiopulmonary resuscitation technique taught by Xie Yingmian to press Duke Ning's heart.
She pressed down with great force.
Seeing Wen Ge's action, Lady Ningguo, who had been watching, almost exploded.
"Didn't he say his heart pulse was weak?"
"She's pressing so hard, the old man will be broken."
"Boss, are you just going to watch her mess around like that?"
Master Ning's face turned cold, his attitude was cold and distant: "Mother, Miss Wen Ge is a doctor, she knows how to handle father's physical condition. You are not a doctor, so please don't make things more complicated."
Lady Ningguo was furious: "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean I'm causing trouble?"
"I'm concerned about your father. She used such great force to press on a person with a weak pulse. If this isn't murder, what is it?"
"You are all so blinded by greed that you actually trust a wild girl who came from nowhere."
"Why don't you go and ask the director of the Imperial Hospital to come over? What can a mere woman like her do?"
