Chapter Sixteen Poisoning

  "Uncle, hello, I'm Jiang Xu."

  Jiang Xu didn't wait for Xiao Zi Qing to introduce him and instead introduced himself, extending his hand to Xiao He Xi.

  "Jiang Xu, hello." Xiao He Xi smiled and said to Jiang Xu, then gently shook hands with him.

  It can be seen that Xiao He's movements are somewhat inconvenient, and the simple handshake is like doing a very tiring thing for him, even his breathing has become slightly urgent.

  After shaking hands, Jiang Xu's eyebrows furrowed slightly and he suddenly asked: "Uncle, have you offended anyone?"

  Jiang Xuzhi's initiative to shake hands with Xiao Hezi was not just a matter of courtesy. This seemingly simple handshake had already allowed him to probe Xiao Hezi's physical condition.

  Xiao He's expression was somewhat puzzled, and he asked: "What's wrong, Jiang Xu? Why are you asking this?"

  "Uncle, your body has been poisoned by someone, and it's quite severe."

  Jiang Xu's gaze swept over Xiao He's slightly reddened pupils, his tone extremely affirmative, because he not only could affirm that Xiao He was poisoned, but also knew what kind of poison was in him.

  It's a poison called Red Bone Powder, which is very difficult to cure. The poisoned person's body will gradually wither away until death, and the most obvious characteristic of the poisoned person is that their pupils turn red, the redder they are, the closer they are to death.

  This kind of red powder poison was very common during the Sui and Tang dynasties, Jiang Xu did not expect that in this era, there were still people who knew how to concoct such a vicious poison.

  "What, poisoning?"

  Listening to Jiang Xu's words, Xiao He and Xiao Zi Qing, father and daughter, were both stunned.

  Xiao He didn't know how good Jiang Xu's medical skills were, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. Moreover, Jiang Xu was too young, with an age gap of several rounds compared to the famous doctors Xiao He had seen before. At such a young age, how high could his medical skills be?

  However, Xiao Zi Qing did not have any suspicions.

  Unlike Xiao He Xi, Xiao Zi Qing would never underestimate Jiang Xu because of his age. Not to mention Jiang Xu's medical skills, just the unbelievable scenes that happened in Wanda Plaza earlier had already given Xiao Zi Qing a profound and mysterious feeling about Jiang Xu.

  And this feeling is exactly where Xiao Zi Qing's confidence in Jiang Xu comes from, let alone she has also seen Jiang Xu's medical skills, so she almost believes everything he says.

  "Jiang Xu, what poison is in my dad? Can you save my dad?" Just then, Xiao Ziqing suddenly came back to her senses and anxiously asked Jiang Xu.

  At this moment, Xiao Zi Qing's eyes and her face as delicate as an ice sculpture were almost filled with extreme tension and anticipation. She was waiting for Jiang Xu's answer, an answer that could make her ecstatic or thoroughly disappointed.

  "Alright, just prepare a box of silver needles for acupuncture and that will do." Jiang Xu's answer was simple, but it showed absolute confidence and control.

  Upon hearing this, Xiao Ziying's stunningly beautiful face was instantly filled with an extremely excited and joyful expression. Her eyes quickly became moist, and tears of joy fell uncontrollably.

  "Wait a minute, my dad's room has silver needles for acupuncture, I'll go get them for you right now."

  As soon as the words fell, Xiao Ziqing almost ran into the villa in the first time. Under the sunlight, Xiao Ziqing's crystal tears could be seen falling all the way.

  "Jiang Xu, can you really cure me?" Facing Jiang Xu's confidence and faith, even Xiao He's doubts in his heart couldn't help but start to waver, however, he still had some disbelief.

  "Uncle, you'll know later." Jiang Xu just smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

  After fusing with the Emperor's Soul Pearl, Jiang Xiu developed a rather strange habit. When faced with others' misunderstandings and doubts, he would never have any thoughts or ideas about explaining himself.

  Whether it was Zou Rong who misunderstood him or Xiao Zi Qing who misunderstood him, Jiang Xu had never thought of explaining anything.

  At this moment, facing Xiao He's inquiry, Jiang Xu also didn't have any intention to explain.

  Perhaps this habit is related to the soul memory of those ancient emperors, with the dignity and pride of the emperor, how could they possibly explain anything to others, whether you are misunderstood or questioned, in the eyes of those emperors, it's all irrelevant.

  Jiang Xu didn't want to say more, and Xiao He also didn't speak much.

  Since the horse is already in such a state, it won't live for many more days anyway. It's better to let Jiang Xu try to cure it once. Even if he can't, there's nothing to lose.

  ▂▂▂▂▂▂

  Xiao Zi Qing didn't keep Jiang Xu Jiu waiting for long, and after just a few short minutes, she brought over a box of silver needles used for acupuncture.

  These silver needles are well-preserved and have been disinfected, but for Jiang Xue's medical skills, whether or not these acupuncture needles have been disinfected will not have any impact on his acupuncture.

  He opened the acupuncture, Jiang Xu casually took out a silver needle and then said to Xiao He Si: "Uncle, the treatment process may be painful, when you can't bear it, you can tell me."

  There are two ways to treat erythromycin bone, one is to take an antidote and the other is to detoxify.

  The antidote for the Red Powder Bone was not difficult to prepare, but some of the herbs were hard to find, so Jiang Xu chose a second treatment method, using acupuncture to expel the toxins from Xiao He's body.

  "Good."

  Xiao He also cooperated with Jiang Xu's treatment, and for what Jiang Xu said, he almost agreed without thinking.

  Jiang Xu didn't waste any time either. With a swift movement of his hand, the first silver needle was already thrust towards Xiao He's Lingtai acupoint.

  Lingtai, Tiandu, Shaoshang...

  This was Jiang Xu's first time using acupuncture after merging with the soul memory of Flame Emperor Shennong, but Jiang Xu didn't feel any unfamiliarity. His technique seemed to have been honed through a thousand hammerings and a hundred refinements, his needlework extremely precise, his hand movements even more exquisite.

  A master's skill is evident from the very start.

  Watching Jiang Xiu's extraordinary and sacred acupuncture techniques, Xiao He Xi already knew how ridiculous his doubts were, how childish and ignorant.

  In the past three years, he didn't know how many famous Chinese medicine masters he had seen, nor did he know how many times he had been needled. In his impression, almost no Chinese medicine master's needling technique could compare with Jiang Xuhua, and even fell far short.

  With such an amazing acupuncture technique, Xiao He Xi no longer had any doubts about Jiang Xu's medical skills.

  And in his heart, at this moment, there were several more parts of expectation.

  Xiao He had a premonition that perhaps his body was not beyond cure, and the young man he had once underestimated might really be able to heal him.
