"Take this and hold it to his mouth and nose. Catch everything he spits out!"
"Then cover it up as quickly as possible!"
At this moment, Luo Zixi handed Bai Jingyan a glass bottle. The opening of the bottle was not large, but it could cover the man's mouth and nose.
Seeing Luo Zixi's solemn expression, Bai Jingyan knew that this matter was not simple.
Even during that tense moment, she remained calm and composed, unlike now.
Bai Jingyan nodded, then had his comrades take off the man's shirt, revealing his back.
Luo Zixi quickly took out a set of gold needles from her backpack, sterilized them with a small alcohol lamp, and then quickly began to apply the needles.
Soon, the soldier felt the golden needles stimulating his back, and he clearly felt his spirits lift. He was invigorated from his previous limp state and sat up straight.
Luo Zixi's technique was very fast; her movements were as swift as the wind and her needles as fast as lightning!
She quickly completed all the steps, and finally let out a delicate shout:
"Get ready to catch it! Be quick!"
Bai Jingyan was already on high alert, pointing the bottle at the soldier's mouth and nose.
The next second, Luo Zixi gently touched a few silver needles with her slender fingers and flicked them back and forth a few times. The soldier trembled all over and suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
At the same time, everyone heard a crisp sound, as if a pebble had hit the glass bottle directly.
Bai Jingyan reacted quickly and immediately put the glass bottle on. Then he saw a purplish-black insect jumping and struggling inside the bottle, as if trying to break free of the glass.
The strangest thing is that the soldier who vomited half a bottle of black blood was quickly absorbed by the insect.
This little bug was originally only the size of a fingernail, but after sucking blood, it grew to the size of a thumb, several times larger...
Even these soldiers felt a chill run down their spines upon seeing this scene.
They all swallowed hard.
"Alright, your brother's life is saved."
"I've accomplished my mission, we're even now. Give me that bug, you'll cause a huge problem if you don't handle it properly."
Bai Jingyan handed the glass bottle to Luo Zixi, his gratitude in his eyes making no attempt to hide it.
"Thank you, I owe you a huge favor this time."
Luo Zixi smiled:
"Don't say that, we have a transactional relationship."
"We're even now, you don't owe me anything."
“I already got a great deal in that place. This bug is very useful to me, so consider it my reward for this time.”
"This is your brother's prescription for treatment. These herbs are for you. After decocting and taking them for three consecutive days, he will be your energetic and lively brother again."
"Alright, the matter is resolved. I'm leaving."
Luo Zixi waved her hand, smiled calmly, and turned to leave.
Her figure was so beautiful under the starlight that it was dazzling, and the group of soldiers were all somewhat mesmerized by her.
After all, three years in the army can make even a sow look like Diao Chan! Let alone a great beauty like her!
They rarely saw girls, so seeing a beautiful, highly skilled, and uniquely individual woman like Luo Zixi was truly impressive.
If this girl could be a little gentler, she would be absolutely perfect.
Bai Jingyan wanted to say something to Luo Zixi, but found that she had already moved quickly and disappeared.
He didn't even have a chance to say goodbye...
This girl is so carefree...
"What are you looking at? Snap out of it! You need to learn your lesson this time. There's always someone better than you."
"Yes, Captain!"
Bai Jingyan scolded his men, but they cooperated well.
Bai Jingfeng, however, muttered to himself:
"Tch, aren't you practically eyeing that girl?"
Bai Jingyan's face turned cold, and he didn't say anything, just staring at Bai Jingfeng.
The guy immediately shrank his neck and chuckled awkwardly:
"Oh dear, Gangzi needs to be taken care of, let me go check on him..."
After saying that, he dashed off to the wounded soldier to offer his concern and care.
Only then did Bai Jingyan manage to regain his composure. However, he still subconsciously kept glancing in the direction Luo Zixi had left, lost in thought.
Luo Zixi, having accomplished her task, left without a trace.
I really hit the jackpot today. I never expected to come here looking for a place to perform and reap such a huge reward.
That Bai family's treasure trove was truly a wonderful place; such a huge treasure trove, and she emptied it all out.
I won't go into the other money and jewelry.
The most precious ones are those medicinal herbs that have been stored for many years!
It's truly a rare find; it can be a lifesaver in a critical moment.
That's why she was willing to help; she took advantage of the situation so much this time that even she, with her thick skin, felt a little embarrassed.
Of course, another great gain was the insect we received after today's treatment.
Strictly speaking, it should be called Gu!
Luo Zixi didn't elaborate on how vicious this thing was, as saying too much would seem like boasting.
However, among the herbs she left for Bai Jingyan, she slipped a note with some special information, warning the soldiers to be careful.
These soldiers are able to fight against the person who cast the curse, and they might run into her again next time. If that happens, what she left behind will be of great use.
This black worm, called the Black Blood Bewitching Gu, is a unique type of Gu worm from the Orient. It actually originated from a small Southeast Asian country that was skilled in raising Gu worms and casting spells.
However, in the East, there is a more suitable environment for the growth of this kind of worm.
