Chapter 156 Ready
"So, mother really doesn't know medicine." Ye Yanshun pondered, "But this makes even more sense. Although I don't know medicine, I also know that the use and dosage of herbs vary from person to person. As the saying goes, a slight error can lead to a great mistake. Mother would never joke with father's life."
"Is there a possibility that mother doesn't have medical skills, but she can detoxify?" Ye Yan'an glanced at the two of them. "I analyzed it last time. Our mother must have some skills."
"Hey, what's the point of us making random guesses here?" Ye Yanping stood up. "When our father gets better, we'll go and ask him clearly. They can't always be so secretive and hide everything from us!"
"Go to bed early. If you can't sleep, pray. Hope everything goes well tomorrow!"
After Ye Yanping finished speaking, he went back to the east wing.
The next day, the Ye family got up very early, and the air was filled with a subtle sense of tension.
After breakfast, the Ye family closed the gate and declined all visitors.
In the kitchen, two large pots were boiling water, and Luo Qiuyue put dozens of medicinal herbs into the pots.
After soaking for half an hour, Ye Yanping stirred the medicine in the pot and brought it into the main room.
"Old Ye, are you ready?" Luo Qiuyue asked with a smile.
"I've been preparing for twenty years." Ye Buwei replied softly.
"Brain bag, be good!"
The little girl climbed onto Ye Buwei's lap with her short legs, hugged his neck and kissed him, "You have to be brave!"
"Okay." Ye Buwei kissed Xiao Jiuer's soft little face, "Just listen to Xiao Jiuer."
"Grandpa..." Xiaowen and Xiaowu leaned over, "Grandpa, don't be afraid!"
"Grandpa will definitely get better. I prayed to the Buddha last night, and he promised me in my dream."
"I also prayed to the Buddha. As long as Grandpa can get better, I am willing to do more of the things I don't like!"
"What is it that Xiaowu doesn't like?" Ye Buwei smiled.
"Well..." Xiao Wu glanced at Zhao Xingjian secretly, "I'll tell Grandpa when he gets better."
In Ye Buwei's room, a lot of hot water was added to the big bathtub, and the whole room was filled with smoke. Luo Qiuyue added new medicinal herbs into it.
"Old Ye, come in."
The little girl hugged Ye Buwei's neck tightly, "Head, I'm waiting for you."
"good."
Ye Buwei walked into the room.
"Daddy!" The three brothers of the Ye family couldn't help but shout.
For so many years, they never knew that their father was poisoned and close to death. At this moment, the bitterness and worry in their hearts reached its peak.
They tried hard not to cry.
Ye Buwei turned around, his lifeless eyes dull and unfocused, yet filled with warmth, "Don't worry."
"Yes, it will be fine." Zhao Xingjian stepped forward. "Your father is a lucky man. From today on, all the hardships will be rewarded!"
Ye Buwei turned around and walked into the house, closing the door from the inside.
Inside the house, Luo Qiuyue helped Ye Buwei take off his clothes and let him sit in a bathtub filled with herbs.
Although he is over 40 years old, Ye Buwei has firm muscles and full lines, which makes him very pleasing to the eye.
But Luo Qiuyue had no intention of appreciating it.
His sight fell on the glaring black line.
The black line started from the right wrist and extended to the left side of Ye Buwei's heart.
It's only about three inches away from the heart.
It goes without saying that the day this black line reaches his heart, Ye Buwei will die.
Luo Qiuyue put on gloves and crushed the Netherworld Dragon-Catching Flower into three pieces.
Add one part to warm water and let Ye Buwei swallow it, put one part in the bathtub, and add the last part to other medicinal powders and apply it on Ye Buwei's eyes, and then wrap them with a wet cloth.
Half an hour later, the water in the bathtub, which had already turned cold, began to mist up again. Ye Buwei's whole body was red, and his chest was heaving violently.
However, the black line on his body faded and slowly disappeared from the heart at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Luo Qiuyue was overjoyed and pierced Ye Buwei's finger with a silver needle, "Old Ye, now is the time, use your internal energy to force out the poison!"
Ye Buwei did as he was told, and black blood dripped from his fingertips into the vessel prepared in advance.
When the black line retreated to the wrist, it suddenly stopped.
Ye Buwei took a few breaths and said, "This medicine makes my blood and energy surge, and my tendons and veins become disordered. I can no longer concentrate my energy and move my skills to drive out the poison."
"That's normal. I added a lot of herbs that can invigorate the muscles and blood circulation to the soup, so that the toxins can be completely eliminated."
As Luo Qiuyue spoke, she sat cross-legged behind Ye Buwei and continuously transferred her internal energy to him.
Soon, the black line retreated to the fingers.
"Now it's the little cuties' turn to come on stage."
Luo Qiuyue opened her eyes, opened the iron box and placed the seven-star blood leech on Ye Buwei's fingertips.
The seven-star leeches, which had been fed with human blood for several days, grew many times larger.
After being hungry for more than a day, the leeches began to become restless when they smelled the blood, and began to suck frantically at Ye Buwei's fingertips.
In the past, it would take me half an incense stick to feel satisfied, but today I only took half.
Click.
The leech fell to the ground, motionless.
Poisoned to death.
"Useless thing." Luo Qiuyue said with disgust, "I've raised it for so many years and fed it so many poisonous things, but it's still so useless!"
While saying this, he did not forget to add new leeches.
In this way, a group of people die, a group of people are replaced, another group of people die, and another group of people are replaced, and the cycle continues.
After an unknown amount of time, all the leeches in the box died.
Luo Qiuyue wiped Ye Buwei's fingertips with a cloth, "Old Ye, everything is going well. Rest for a few days and you will be fully recovered..."
He stopped talking mid-sentence and cursed under his breath: "Damn it!"
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Ye Buwei asked.
"No, there was a leech that wasn't dead yet, and it gave me a fright."
Luo Qiuyue tried to speak as casually as possible so as not to arouse Ye Buwei's suspicion.
He frowned and looked at the last black line on Ye Buwei's right thumb that had not yet faded, and turned the leech over in despair.
Damn, they are all dead, not even a single one is half dead?
Luo Qiuyue said calmly, "Old Ye, have you been happy in the past twenty years?"
"Of course I am happy." Ye Buwei smiled, "For the rest of my life, I want you to be happy."
"Silly boy." Luo Qiuyue took his hand and said, "These past two decades have been the happiest time of my life."
Just as Luo Qiuyue lowered her head, Ye Buwei quickly withdrew his hand.
Luo Qiuyue was startled, "Old Ye, why are you..."
Ye Buwei sighed slightly, "Qiuyue, I know you better than you know yourself. Is it because the leeches are not enough? I know what you are planning to do."
"Listen to me!" Luo Qiuyue said anxiously, "This last bit of poison must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise it will regress to its original position and all previous efforts will be wasted! I have been using poison for many years and have long been immune to all poisons. Take your hand out quickly!"
"No." Ye Buwei said calmly, "I won't let you take any risks. Just cut off this finger."
"What did you say? Cut off your right thumb and you'll never be able to hold a sword again!"
"I don't think I'll ever need to hold a sword again in my life."
…
The Ye family members stuck to the door, carefully listening to the movements inside.
"What should I do? It seems there aren't enough leeches!"
"What should I do?"
Everyone was in a panic.
"Anai!" Little Dumpling kicked the door with his little feet, "Occasionally!"
"Ah?" Everyone looked at the little girl, "What's up, Xiaojiuer?"
"Occasionally... there are bugs..."
The little boy rummaged in his pocket and pulled out a super fat leech that was so hungry that only its skin was left.
He picked it up with two fingers and presented it to everyone.
“Hey!”
