Chapter 254 Earthquake
Zhou Xiang bowed his hands and said, "Master Lingjun, please save General Situ!"
If General Situ died here, he would be punished for dereliction of duty by the Emperor even if he returned to the capital. Moreover, they didn't find any trace of He Yuwen at all.
If I go back in disgrace like this, if the emperor gets angry, I'm afraid I'll lose my head.
"Sir Zhou, it's not that I don't want to help you." She looked at Situ Wen, whose face had turned purple and black. He was now barely breathing and was breathing out more than inhaling.
"Given General Situ's current condition, I'm afraid he won't have much time left to live." Shang Ruoyi clicked her tongue twice: "I'm a doctor, not a god."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiang hurriedly said, "But you are a miracle doctor!"
"I can only say that I will try my best." Shang Ruoyi said solemnly: "But I can't guarantee that there won't be any sequelae."
"Thank you, miracle doctor." Zhou Xiang said with a bow.
As long as Situ Wen can return to the capital alive, it will be fine.
Shang Ruoyi took her pulse, took out a silver needle and inserted it directly into the top of his head, which made Zhou Xiang terrified.
How can he still survive with such a long silver needle stuck on his head?
Shang Ruoyi took out a dozen silver needles and inserted them into several major acupuncture points on her body.
"Help him up." Shang Ruoyi said coldly.
The guards brought by Zhou Xiang hurriedly helped Situ Wen sit up.
Shang Ruoyi gathered her internal strength in her palm and slapped him hard on the back.
"Puff!" A mouthful of black blood spurted out from Situ Wen's mouth, carrying with it a fishy smell. Coincidentally, the black blood sprayed on Zhou Xiang's face and collar.
"Ugh." Zhou Xiang's face suddenly changed and he quickly took off his robe.
Seeing this, Shang Ruoyi curled the corners of her lips slightly to hide the fleeting light in her eyes.
Shang Ruoyi looked at her deformed right arm, stretched out her hand, and with a "click", her arm returned to its original position.
She took out a wooden board and fixed Situ Wen's arm.
"His life is saved for now. His arm needs at least half a year to recover, but it is absolutely impossible to restore it to its previous state." Even if it was possible, she would not help him with treatment. After all, He Jingheng said that he only needed to live for a year.
Zhou Xiang's eyes flickered. "I heard that Prince Ding's leg, He Jingheng, was able to recover after breaking the tendons. I wonder which miracle doctor helped him heal it?"
It turned out that he was waiting for her here.
Shang Ruoyi curled her lips and said in a cold voice: "Could it be that Lord Zhou thought it was me who did it?" She washed her hands and said calmly: "I have never heard of anyone whose broken tendons can be reconnected. If Lord Zhou knows who has such a great ability, please tell me. I must go and ask for advice."
"Haha, I just heard about it, that's all." Zhou Xiang had a flattering smile on his face: "Besides, who else in the world can compare with the medical skills of the miracle doctor?"
"Master Zhou, thank you for your compliment. Didn't you just say that Prince Ding's broken leg has been reattached?"
"No, no, no, it's just some hearsay." Zhou Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I was misled by that villain this time and caused many misunderstandings. Please don't blame me. You saved the lives of the emperor and the queen. You are the great benefactor of the entire Tianshun. We are always grateful for your kindness. When we come to your majesty and the queen in the future, please don't tell you about today's misunderstanding, otherwise my life will be in danger!"
Although his words were a bit exaggerated, they were still 70% believable.
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou said it was a misunderstanding, why would I still hold on to it?"
"Thank you for your consideration, Doctor." He bowed and took out a cloth bag from his arms: "This is just a small gift from me. I hope Doctor will not despise it."
Shang Ruoyi took the cloth bag and after opening it, she found a pearl inside.
"Divine Doctor Lingjun, this Dongzhu was given by the Emperor. I treasure it very much. Please don't despise it."
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Since it was given by the Emperor, Lord Zhou should keep it well. I am a man and have no interest in jewelry like Dongzhu."
"If the genius doctor finds a woman he likes in the future, this Dongzhu will be a gift from me to you." He handed it over again. Shang Ruoyi shook her head: "This is such an important thing to you, you should keep it for yourself!"
It's not that she's being mean, it's just that she really doesn't like this Dongzhu.
It's not even the size of a soybean and not round enough, yet he said it was so precious. Why should I owe him a favor for such a small thing?
Seeing that she really didn't want to accept it, Zhou Xiang had no choice but to put the pearl away.
"Master Zhou, if you have nothing else to do, please go back! I am tired after all this trouble." Shang Ruoyi said in a low voice: "Regarding General Situ's poison, I have to say it in advance. He is deeply poisoned. I have done my best. How long he can live depends on his luck."
After sending these people away, Shang Ruoyi washed her hands again with the spiritual spring water. The poison in Situ Wen's body had already penetrated deep into his bones.
Even the blood he just spat out was filled with poison.
If you touch it, you will be infected.
His blood sprayed on Zhou Xiang's skin, and it wouldn't be long before the poison would appear in his body. How long he could hold out before the poison took effect depended on his luck.
At this moment, the white tiger in the space suddenly became anxious.
"what happened?"
Just as she was puzzled, the house suddenly shook.
“Is this... an earthquake?”
The next moment, the vibration suddenly stopped.
Just then, He Jingheng rushed in: "Ruoyi."
"Nothing." Shang Ruoyi whispered, "It seemed like there was an earthquake just now."
"Yeah." He Jingheng's jaw was tight, and he held her in his arms, saying with lingering fear: "It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay."
Shang Ruoyi felt that his hand around her was trembling slightly.
She couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and patted him on the back: "Don't worry."
Tianshun is mostly plains and earthquakes rarely occur. Moreover, most people don't know what earthquakes are. Whenever such disasters occur, they are said to be disasters sent from heaven and a sin against the gods.
But even so, isn't He Jingheng a little too nervous?
Only when he felt the struggle of the person in his arms did He Jingheng come to his senses.
"what happened?"
He Jingheng touched her head, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
"He Jingheng."
"Nothing, nothing." He took a breath and said, "Come with me to the capital!"
Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but smile when she saw him like this: "It's just an earthquake, why are you so scared? How can you be as graceful as a young war god?"
Everyone knew it was a joke, and even the secret guards at the door couldn't help laughing. However, there was still no smile on He Jingheng's face, and even the fear in his eyes didn't diminish at all.
It was exactly the same, exactly the same as the scene in the dream.
