"Grandpa Zhou is also from a family of traditional Chinese medicine, and it's said his ancestors were imperial physicians. Why don't you ask him?"
"That's if you get out first! Besides, Grandpa and the others will probably ask. Why should we kids worry about it!"
"You're the one saying all the good and bad things!"
"I think there's not enough Huanglian in the medicine!"
While they were talking seriously, they started bickering again. However, the two people outside who had been paying attention to them overheard their conversation. They sent someone to ask Old Zhou for information, hoping to get some useful news from him.
But Old Zhou couldn't say anything immediately, saying he needed to go back and check. However, Old Ye and Old Bi didn't miss his momentary hesitation. Old Bi gave Bi Fang, who was standing behind him, a look, and Bi Fang went out to make arrangements.
Ji Xingmi and Ye Yu had no idea what was happening outside. Seeing that Ye Yu seemed to be in good spirits, she took his pulse. Indeed, a lot of the toxin had already been expelled. Ji Xingmi then inserted golden needles into his head to speed up the detoxification process.
She also stayed busy, continuously pouring water, or occasionally feeding him spiritual spring water!
The sweat that was steaming out of him now had a color to it. If Ji Xingmi hadn't been observing closely, she wouldn't have noticed it at all!
"Why are you suddenly looking at me like that?"
"Don't talk! You just need to focus now!"
Ji Xingmi kept observing Ye Yu's sweating, checking his pulse from time to time, and continuously pouring water. The temperature kept rising.
Ye Yu felt like he was about to be steamed alive. He wanted to say something, but Ji Xingmi had just told him not to talk, so he swallowed his words.
"Come, I'll help you sit up!"
Ji Xingmi didn't wait for his reply. She directly helped him sit up and then took out golden needles, inserting many into his back as well.
Ye Yu truly turned into a hedgehog. At first, he didn't feel anything, but gradually, he found it increasingly difficult to breathe, his vision swam with stars, his throat felt extremely itchy, and he felt like vomiting.
He disliked that feeling and decided to endure it. Ji Xingmi seemed to sense his discomfort and directly said, "Uncomfortable? Feeling like vomiting? Don't hold it in, just spit it out!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Yu directly spat out a mouthful of blood. Once this blood came out, it was like a switch had been flipped, and Ye Yu began to vomit profusely!
Seeing this, Ji Xingmi immediately grabbed a basin nearby and gestured for him to spit into it.
Ye Yu seemed to be expelling everything from his body. The contents of the basin were strangely colored and carried a foul, fishy odor, similar to the taste of the toxins expelled from Old Bi's body. However, Ye Yu's had some additional peculiar smells!
When Ye Yu could no longer vomit, Ji Xingmi had him rinse his mouth. After all these steps were completed, she removed the needles from his back and head, helped him lie down, and then took the basin outside.
Before taking it out, Ji Xingmi sprinkled some medicine into the basin before letting someone take it out for disposal.
The two old men also saw the basin of contents and were unsure of the situation. Fortunately, Old Zhou said it was a good sign, indicating that the toxins in Ye Yu's body had been expelled.
However, Ye Yu was still not out, and Old Ye remained worried!
"How do you feel now?"
"Much better! Was what I just vomited out toxins?"
"Yes, some of them!"
"Then how much longer do I have to be steamed?"
"What? Can't take it anymore?" Ji Xingmi said, sitting beside him after checking his pulse.
"Yeah, I felt like I was about to be cooked just now! If you weren't in here with me, I'd suspect you wanted to cook me and eat me!"
"Ridiculous! Are there no other delicious meats? If I wanted to eat you, besides, you don't have much meat on you! Just bones!"
"There will be meat in the future! Right?"
"Hmph!"
"I say, you, such a beautiful young girl, shouldn't you be gentler?"
"Ohh~ Are you feeling better now, so you're starting to find me not gentle enough? Fine, brother, tomorrow I'll brew you some medicine, and you have to drink it all up~ It's specially brewed for you by yours truly~"
"You~ You speak seriously! Change back!"
"Brother~ What are you talking about? What's wrong with how I speak? You wanted me to be gentler~ Why don't you like it now~"
