"If you fainted there, my cousin would really have to have his limbs amputated." Su Yao said lightly.
He chuckled softly, then suddenly leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I promise you, nothing will happen."
Su Yao did not answer, but just let go of his hand silently.
Yun Fangxue, who was standing aside, stared at the scene in a daze.
Her heart seemed to be moved at this moment.
I have never seen such a handsome man... His profile is like a sculpture of snow and ice, and the deep green in his eyes is like the aurora in the night sky, with an intoxicating magic.
She bit her lip lightly, her heart beating like thunder.
In the past 28 years, she has been praised for her beauty and pursued by others, but she has never been moved.
However, at this moment, the figure of Liu Yuting when he turned around was deeply imprinted in her heart, as if the years suddenly became no longer long.
He walked out of the door with firm steps, like entering the mountain breeze.
"Mr. Liu!" Yun Fangxue mustered up the courage to call him.
He turned around but said nothing.
She opened her mouth, a shy look on her face: "...Be careful."
Liu Yuting did not respond to her, and his figure disappeared into the night.
Su Yao has returned to the examination table and is using a silver scraper to carefully peel away the venom and blood from the edge of the ulcer.
She looked focused and said nothing, unaware that her cousin had fallen in love with Liu Yuting at first sight.
The needle tip picked up the rotten flesh, and blood flowed out in a dark pool.
Su Yao dipped the silver scraper into the liquid medicine and slowly absorbed all the blood poison with cotton cloth without any panic.
It was late at night outside and the wind was howling.
Her stunning face glowed like ice porcelain under the light, just like the unchanging calm face in thousands of life and death case records.
…
In the northern ridge of Kunlun, the wind and snow howled.
Liu Yuting has stepped into the territory of Yinwu Cliff.
This strange place was shrouded in perpetual miasma, the mountain winds as sharp as knives, and the insects and beasts in the forest were all highly poisonous. An ordinary person would fall dead in three breaths. He didn't hesitate and took a Condensed Essence Miasma-Repelling Pill. The pill felt slightly cool at the entrance, and a clear energy spread through his dantian, his energy forming an invisible barrier that blocked the poisonous fog from his body.
"The heart core of the Icy Cicada..." he whispered.
He avoided the poisonous ravines and pits along the way, passed through the bone-eating vines and the ghost fire forest, and finally saw the legendary red cicada under a dead tree at the fourth cliff: its whole body was ice blue, hidden in the tree trunk, and its heart core was beating slightly, sparkling like an ice crystal.
Just as he stretched out his hand, the grass leaves suddenly moved, and a gray-spotted three-eyed poisonous python coiled out from behind the tree, hissing and revealing its ferocious look.
Liu Yuting raised his right hand slightly, and a silver light slid out from between his fingers, accurately hitting the poisonous python's eyes and mouth.
The poisonous python danced wildly in pain, twitched for a few breaths, and then fell to the ground with a bang.
Without stopping for a moment, he took out the silver dagger, carefully peeled off the red cicada, took out the core, placed it in a special jade box, sealed it with a golden talisman, and then turned and left.
On the way back, his blood was boiling. It was obvious that the Ningyuan Pill had almost run out of effect, and the poisonous mist was gradually forcing its way into his chest and lungs.
He took out a pill, but the cold wind blew it through his fingers and into the cliff valley.
He did not retreat, but instead quickened his pace, fell into the pit several times, and then slowly climbed out by leaning against the rock wall.
As the sky brightened, he finally stepped out of the misty cliff. He was wet and cold, his hair was covered with frost, and his face was pale, but he said nothing.
In the distance, Su Yao was already waiting at the mountain pass, his white clothes fluttering in the wind, his eyes looking at him calmly.
"I got it." Liu Yuting took out the jade box from his arms and handed it to her.
Su Yao took it, without touching the box, but only tested the temperature with his finger, and whispered: "The core is intact, the temperature is still... very good."
Purple eyes swept over his scarred body and asked, "You fell off a cliff."
"I fell once." Liu Yuting said lightly.
She stopped talking and turned away, "Go back to the clinic. I'll start giving you acupuncture in three quarters of an hour."
Liu Yuting looked at her cold back and suddenly laughed softly.
"Fortunately, I am not the man who warms your hands, but the man who gets medicine for you." Su Yao likes useful men.
He quickened his pace to catch up.
In the snowy wind of Kunlun, two figures, one in front and one behind, walked into the eternal light in the wind.
…
Back in the main clinic, Su Yao didn't stop for a moment. Liu Yuting helped him prepare water, clean the utensils, and boil the medicine. He placed the heart core of the ice cicada in the jade bowl and simmered it over low heat.
She changed into a light blue examination gown, tied her cuffs, and moved quickly, her eyes as bright as a mirror.
Yun Fangfei was still unconscious, and the poisonous gas climbed up along the meridians of her legs, faintly rushing up to her chest.
Su Yao looked at him, placed his palm on his pulse, and after a long silence, said, "Start the needle."
Liu Yuting stood to her right, silently and motionlessly handing her the gold needles, cupping jars, needle box, bandages, and cinnabar she needed. His eyes followed her the entire time, as if the entire room could only accommodate her figure.
"Induce the poison first." Su Yao said calmly.
She quickly inserted needles below Yun Fangfei's knees, pressing three points on the left, middle and right, namely "Zusanli", "Xuehai" and "Chengshan". As the silver needles were inserted simultaneously, poisonous blood slowly seeped out along the tails of the needles, turning a thick black color.
Liu Yuting caught it on the silver plate in time without any hesitation.
Yun Fangxue stood aside, watching their tacit understanding, and felt a sour feeling in her heart.
It was clearly her brother lying on the bed dying, but Liu Yuting's gaze never stayed on her for a moment from beginning to end.
She bit her lip, took a few steps forward, and said softly, "Mr. Liu... Thank you for taking the risk to get medicine for my brother this time. I..."
Liu Yuting didn't stop his hands, nor did he turn his eyes away. He just said lightly: "I went there for Su Yao."
Yun Fangxue stood there in a daze, her face slightly stiff.
Su Yao did not look back, nor did he pay attention to her emotions. He just continued to give acupuncture.
"The poison has been drawn out 10%."
She reached out and took out the boiled cicada heart core from the medicine bowl, mashed it into juice, and used a gold pen to prick the needle holes. Then she placed 108 gold needles in the order of "countercurrent seven meridians".
