Chapter 594
"Oh~" Chen Xu looked at the room, and there was only a veteran Qin lying alone on the couch.
No ordinary people can escape from birth, old age, sickness and death. From emperors, princes, to peddlers and pawns, they all struggled in the long river of time, and then sank like dust and could no longer see any trace.
"Xiao'er~" a low voice came from the room.
"General is awake!" Although the voice was very light, the few people standing at the door heard it. Wang San and Si turned around and rushed into the room and knelt on one knee in front of the couch, "General, what are your instructions?"
But obviously Wang Jian was just shouting like a dream in a coma, and there was no movement at this time. Chen Xu followed in and took a look. He thought he could say a few words to Wang Jian and say the final goodbye, but obviously he just liked it all in vain.
After a long time, Wang San stood up and bowed with a sad face and said, "Mr. Marquis, the general has been like this for the past two days. I'm afraid it's really not possible this time. You... you really can't save the general..."
"Stern brother, don't talk nonsense!" Wang Si looked outside the door nervously.
Chen Xu naturally knew why Wang San and Wang Si were even nervous.
Because the emperor once issued an order that no one should ask Chen Xu for medical treatment, otherwise it would be a death sentence. The reason why Qin Shihuang was worried was that Chen Xu used too much magical skills and would exhaust his magic power.
"Brother Yu, let's go!" Chen Xu shook his head and turned to exit the room.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to save him. If he really knows the magic of immortals, maybe he will actually save him. But if he doesn’t talk about the magic of immortals, he can’t even acupuncture... acupuncture... acupuncture...
Chen Xu, who had walked to the door, suddenly stopped and turned around, and Yu Wuya behind him almost hit him.
"My benefactor, don't be able to see him. The general is terminally ill and even the gods cannot save him!" Yu Wuya said in a low voice.
"Brother Yu, do you still remember the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate that night?" Chen Xu asked in a low voice.
"Of course I remember!" Yu Wuya's face suddenly became a little serious.
"I wonder if it will work?" Chen Xu pinched his chin and pondered for a few seconds.
"If Tongwu Hou agrees, I can try it. Treat the dead horse as a living horse. What if I save it!" Yu Wuya nodded slightly.
"Please go and go to the drawer in the middle of the Hou Mansion laboratory to get the needle for me!"
"Okay!" Yu Wuya walked out of the room and strode away, while Chen Xu stood in the yard and waited.
More than ten minutes later, Wang Ben came back panting and saw Chen Xu still there, bowed with apology and said, "It turns out that the Marquis of Qinghe has not left yet. Today is really rude. My mother doesn't know the importance of etiquette. Marquis of Qinghe must not blame him!"
"It's okay, the Marquis is eager to save people. I wonder what the Marquis's current situation is?" Chen Xu waved his hand and said.
"Fortunately, I fainted because of my excessive sadness and had already woken up. In recent days, because of my father, there were a lot of contacts in the mansion and the matter was complicated. Ben will not leave Qinghe Marquis for a banquet today. I will talk to you later when I have time another day. Ben will send Qinghe Marquis out of the mansion!" Wang Ben bowed.
"Xu has known the General for a long time and has received many care from the General. When he was in Nanyang, it was thanks to the General's arrangement of Wang Sanwang Si and others to protect Xu's safety and integrity. In life, no one can escape from birth, old age, sickness and death. Even if he really has magical skills, he cannot change his fate. Just like Princess Qingning, it is not Xu who is not good, but forcing his actions is just a drop in the bucket and will not change any result!" Chen Xu looked at Wang Ben and said.
"Ben knows, otherwise Qingxiu would not have been seriously ill and gone to heal. The General's affairs, Marquis of Qinghe, should not be careless. As a martial artist, we live a life of stagnation. Now my father can lie on the couch and die. I think about how many children who followed our father and son to fight and never return to the battlefield of death. For us, we have already seen life and death!" Wang Ben nodded.
"The general's order is now in the air. Although Xu cannot use immortal arts to change his fate to the general against the will of heaven, he cannot bear to be unable to return home and die. Master once taught me acupuncture technique, which does not require magic power consumption. If it succeeds, it can regain the soul and continue life. As for how long it can last, I cannot guarantee it, but I have never used this acupuncture method..."
"Marquis Qinghe does not need to hesitate, please help me. I am grateful for success or failure!" Before Chen Xu finished speaking, Wang Ben's face turned red with excitement, and he interrupted Chen Xu's words in surprise.
"Marquis Tongwu has thought that if this needle is used, it may be the time when the general dies. Even if he successfully extends his life to the general, Mr. Tongwu may have a disaster in the future!" Chen Xu warned with a serious expression.
"It's okay, even if the Marquis of Qinghe is not treated, my father may die in the next two days. Now the mansion is preparing coffins and setting up a mourning hall. As long as the Marquis takes action, Ben and the hundreds of people in the mansion will only be grateful!" Wang Ben bowed his hand seriously, and did not mention the disaster. The clay pots will not break from the wellhead. The general will inevitably die on the battlefield. As a general who fought on the battlefield, the people who died at the hands of their father and son can be said to have accumulated corpses and blood flowing into rivers. No one cares too much about death.
"Okay, I have asked Brother Yu to go back to the house to get the needle. I will treat him when he returns. From now on, no outsiders can be left in this yard except the Marquis, and no one can make loud noises around!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Qinghe, let's make arrangements!"
Wang Ben called out the guards of Wang Sanwang Si and others outside the yard, and then whispered to the ward. The guards of Tongwu Hou Mansion spread around and defended the entire small yard, and all the family members and servants drove them away from afar.
Half an hour passed, Yu Wuya returned and handed a cloth bag to Chen Xu.
"Marty Tongwu, please wait outside the door!" After Chen Xu finished speaking, he walked into the room with his cloth bag and Yu Wuya, closed the door and put the cloth bag on the desk at the bedside.
Looking at the densely packed more than ten fine needles with different lengths and thicknesses inside the cloth bag, Chen Xu felt his scalp numbness in an instant. He looked at Wang Jian who was lying on the couch without any movement, and then turned to look at Yu Wuya.
"My benefactor, don't have to read it anymore. Wuya has only seen it once!" Yu Wuya shrugged and whispered.
"Do you still remember the order?" A trace of sweat appeared on Chen Xu's forehead.
"The first three needles are among the people, Shaoshang and Yinbai acupoints." Yu Wuya reminded.
"Where is the needle?"
"These three should be the same!" Yu Wuya pulled out three thin needles more than inches long from the cloth bag. Although they looked about the same length, they still had differences in thickness.
"What's next?" Chen Xu was still confused.
He was a delivery person who knew the meridians and acupoints of the human body. Last time Guiguzi was pierced quickly, Chen Xu basically finished it before he could see it clearly. He also kept chatting with Chen Xu while acupuncture. In addition, Chen Xu, who was uneasy because of Wang Qingxiu's death, did not remember much about which needle to pierce the acupoints. He just remembered roughly one order, but now he had to do it himself, so naturally he had nowhere to go to see the stars.
Yu Wuya also looked at Chen Xu with black thread on his head, then took out the needles in the cloth bag one by one and placed them on the table in order, while placing them in his mouth, muttering: "The fourth needle Daling point, use a flat and round needle, the fifth needle Shenmai point, use a sharp needle, and the sixth needle Fengfu point, use... use..."
Yu Wuya picked up this needle and then looked at another needle. After hesitating for a long time, he chose one to put it in place.
Chen Xu:...
After seven or eight minutes, finally, after Yu Wuya's repeated consideration and hesitation, thirteen needles were opened in rows on the desk.
"Isn't you chosen the wrong needle?" Chen Xu himself was already confused, but he felt that Yu Wuya didn't seem to be very reliable either.
"This... the order of acupuncture points is endless, but it is a bit uncertain as to the needles used. Among them, the needles used are too similar, namely, the three acupuncture points corresponding to Dazhui, Chengji and Shangxing..."
Yu Wuya said several acupoints that he was not sure about, and Chen Xu was even more confused. Yu Wuya had to point at Wang Jian lying on the bed to point out the location of the acupoints.
More than ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and Chen Xu roughly understood the locations of the thirteen acupoints. The reason for saying that was roughly because even disciple Liezi, who was proficient in authentic Taoist practice, who knew the meridian acupoints as well as his fingers, felt that he was not particularly sure.
"My benefactor, the meridians are hidden inside, and the acupoints are actually the fulcrum of the interdependent relationship between the meridians and the body's flesh and blood. The soul guards the inside, taking qi as the mechanism, meridian as the body, meridian as the function, holding the primordial body to maintain unity. At this point, the internal breath is continuous, and the breath in the meridians flows, and the flesh and blood are constantly stimulated through the acupoints of the human body. Only in this way can the body be strong, the spirit is clear and the qi is refreshing, the soul is calm and the body is healthy, and this is the foundation of practice."
"Then what?"
"Then...then...then the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate stimulate the qi in the meridians by stimulating the acupoints. Only when the qi flows in the meridians can the soul be clear and people can wake up. We practice Taoism, in fact, constantly searching for the location of the meridians, and looking invisible meridians into the soul, and then meditating to promote the circulation of internal breath. However, no matter the meridians or acupoints, they can only be understood but not expressed in words. Only every practitioner can understand them themselves. The acupuncture point is actually just a general position..."
The two of them muttered and discussed in the room, and soon more than ten minutes passed. Wang Ben stood alone outside the door and was anxiously waiting. Listening to the intermittent words of the inner breath meridian soul inside, he felt more and more unfathomable between Chen Xu and his servant.
In the room, Chen Xu finally picked up the first needle after hesitating for a long time, stared at Wang Jian's Renzhong acupoint, and his hands were shaking slightly.
"Well, why should you be so careful? Just stab it one by one. Life and death are destined!" Yu Wuya said with a twitching face.
