After Ye Qinchuan and the others left, Su Yafeng began her unique Ling Shu Nine Needles technique. She had already had someone remove Old Madam Ye's clothes to make it easier to administer the needles.
The Nine Needles of Ling Shu rely on the practitioner's vital energy to unblock the meridians that are blocked by the practitioner.
Before the acupuncture treatment, Su Ya took some qi-tonifying pills, which were freshly made in the medicine furnace yesterday. Fortunately, she had the furnace, as she could clearly feel that the medicine was more pure and faster than before.
Because Old Madam Ye's condition was different from Su's mother's, although both were caused by anger and stress, they were also old and their physical functions had undergone qualitative changes and begun to decline. If it weren't for the Ye family's good protection and the constant use of various drugs to keep them alive, Su Ya would not have dared to take this risk.
Therefore, administering acupuncture to Madam Ye this time was inherently risky. However, Su Ya had already promised Ye Qinchuan that she would save people, so she had to keep her word and couldn't afford to have any problems.
About twenty minutes later, when Su Ya felt her body's vital energy being continuously replenished, the acupuncture treatment began.
Locate the acupoint accurately and insert the needle quickly and forcefully.
Fortunately, Madam Ye was already unconscious. If it were a normal person, they would have jumped up in pain on the spot.
This is why the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot are never used on conscious people.
The pain alone is unbearable for most people.
Whether it was Su's mother or Grandma Yan, even her second brother, Su Linxi, received the acupuncture without her realizing it.
As her first gold needle pierced through, a thin layer of sweat was clearly visible on Su Ya's smooth forehead.
Then the second stitch. The third stitch.
With each needle prick, Su Ya's face paled three degrees.
The color in his face was visibly fading.
Suya remained unmoved and calmly continued her acupuncture.
By the time she received the seventh needle, Su Ya felt weak and her vision was becoming blurry.
She steadied herself and swallowed a few more pills to replenish her qi and blood. These were clearly different from the previous ones.
Within minutes, she was standing up straight again, and her vision was clear. This qi-tonifying pill was different from the one she had taken before the acupuncture. The previous one was a slow-acting qi-tonifying pill, taking about twenty minutes to take effect, and had minimal harm to the body—almost negligible.
Suya is currently taking an immediate-acting form of the drug, which provides a continuous supply of energy, but this has significant side effects.
Originally intended as a backup in case of emergency, she never expected that Madam Ye's condition was more serious than she had anticipated. She needed twice the amount of vital energy to open Madam Ye's meridians, and she still had to use this medicine.
Saving someone who is about to die is already an act against the will of Heaven; it's like fighting against the King of Hell for a life. It's not so easy without paying a price.
The drawback of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot is that once it begins, it cannot be stopped. Otherwise, it will not only damage the bodily functions of the person being treated, but will also backfire on the bodily functions of the practitioner.
Therefore, Suya cannot stop.
When the eighth needle was inserted, Su Ya clearly felt that the vital energy that had just filled her body was suddenly drained.
I've never felt my vital energy drained so quickly during acupuncture before, and I'm still missing the last, most crucial needle.
Then Su Ya took out a gold needle from the box and inserted it into an acupoint on her head.
I felt much better instantly.
To put it simply, this acupuncture is meant to stimulate the body's last remaining vital energy.
It's generally not used unless absolutely necessary, as this is an extra overdraft.
However, this acupuncture also has side effects, the biggest of which is that the person receiving the acupuncture will be unconscious for two days and two nights.
Su Ya had not told Ye Qinchuan any of this.
When the last needle was successfully inserted into the most crucial acupoint of Madam Ye.
The sweat on Suya's forehead condensed into beads of sweat and dripped down.
Before the aftereffects began, Suya quickly moved on to the next step.
Suya began to twist the needles one by one, allowing the blocked meridians to recover quickly.
The order of the needle insertions varied, so the time spent tightening each needle also differed. After half an hour, the last needle was finally tightened.
Su Ya removed the gold needles from Madam Ye's body one by one and placed them into the box. Then she put them into the black backpack she carried with her.
Most people use silver needles. There's an old saying that silver needles can save lives, while gold needles can harm them. So Su Ya can't let them see the gold needles to avoid unnecessary trouble. Last time, using gold needles to probe acupoints was already a very risky move. Luckily, Aunt Jin, who was helping out in the house at the time, didn't understand.
After tidying up the gold needles, press the mechanism in the box, and the gold needles will flip over, revealing the silver needles that were originally underneath.
Su Ya felt her body couldn't hold on any longer; she was dizzy and lightheaded. She quickly walked to the door, and with a weak voice, she said "I'm all better" before collapsing towards Ye Qinchuan.
Before Suya could even give instructions on what to pay attention to next, she lost consciousness. This damn aftereffect.
Ye Qinchuan, who had been guarding the door for four hours, heard Su Ya's voice and turned around to see Su Ya falling into his arms. He quickly reached out to catch her.
Su Ya's eyes were tightly closed. Her face was completely bloodless, and her body was frighteningly cold. Ye Qinchuan was terrified and quickly placed his hand under Su Ya's nose to check her breathing. He could only hear a faint breath. This time, her fainting was even more forceful than the last time she fainted. Last time, she at least managed to say a few words, but this time she only uttered two words.
Having learned from the previous experience, the room had been prepared in advance, and the qi-tonifying soup had been brewed. However, even after waiting until it was completely dark, Su Ya showed no signs of waking up. This time, feeding her the soup using the same method as before also failed. No matter what he said, Su Ya remained motionless and unresponsive.
Ye Qinchuan could clearly feel that Su Ya's body temperature had dropped even further, and the heating in the room was having no effect whatsoever. Ye Qinchuan quickly asked someone to bring over several blankets, but it did nothing to improve the situation.
Ye Qinchuan was somewhat worried, so he called Manager Ye of Tongxintang in the middle of the night and briefly explained the situation.
Upon receiving the call, Manager Ye learned that his savior had run into trouble. He rushed to the Ye residence as quickly as possible.
After Manager Ye carefully took her pulse, he said, "Su Ya fell into a coma due to severe depletion of her vital energy. Moreover, it seems she used some special method to stimulate her body's functions, leading to severe overexertion, which is why her body is getting colder and colder. The only solution now is to have her drink the tonic. Otherwise, we can only wait for her to wake up naturally."
After some deliberation, out of consideration for the relationship, Manager Ye finally asked for the reason.
"Young Master Ye, I wonder what Miss Su did to cause such severe damage to her vital energy?"
