Chapter 85 Rebirth from the Ashes

Lu Linger urged, "Uncle, take off your clothes quickly. Don't just stand there in a daze. Go take a medicinal bath. The medicinal effect will gradually dissipate with the temperature."

Ji Junche's face flushed instantly. Gu Yichen felt the same embarrassment when he thought about the first time Lu Linger chased him to take a medicinal bath.

Now that Ji Junche had to take off his clothes in front of the girl, he inevitably felt a little uncomfortable. However, Lu Linger didn't give him much time to react and brought back another bucket of medicinal bath soup.

Lu Ling'er is a modern doctor. For her, treating patients is gender-neutral. "This medicinal bath will suppress the toxins in your body, preventing them from spreading to your lungs and heart. After the bath, I'll give you acupuncture to force out the toxins, and then you'll drink the medicinal soup to detoxify as quickly as possible," she explained as she worked. "You must also use acupuncture during this time to prevent the toxins from spreading."

The toxin in Ji Junche's body is the "Night Phantom Poison" from Gu Yichen, which blocks his meridians and prevents him from exerting his inner strength. If forced, the toxin will spread rapidly, leaving him with a purplish-black complexion and blood-red, dark lines that spread like malevolent tentacles down his neck. Furthermore, the pain intensifies dramatically on full-moon nights. The purpose of the medicinal bath is to unclog the meridians, dissipate blood stasis, and detoxify.

Just like last time, Lu Ling'er pulled out several packets of oil-paper-wrapped herbs from her bosom and poured them into the tub one by one. She rolled up her sleeves, revealing her arms as white as lotus roots. She tested the water temperature, confirming it was just right, before saying, "These herbs, like Chuanxiong, Peach Kernel, Safflower, Red Peony Root, Salvia Miltiorrhiza, and Diyang Grass, are all used to dredge the meridians, dissipate blood stasis, and detoxify. There's also Yinning Grass, a potent herb that enhances the effectiveness of the herbs. Yumenzhi and Zhuyu Grass, legendary herbs said to prolong life, have powerful healing properties."

Ji Yun, Gu Yazhu, and Ji Junche were filled with gratitude. They knew how precious these herbs were, and Lu Ling'er's unhesitating use of them on herself made them feel a little ashamed. The three of them secretly decided to leave all the precious herbs they could find to Lu Ling'er.

"After you take the medicinal bath, I will give you acupuncture and use my unique acupuncture method to gradually expel the toxins from your body. Then drink the 'washing soup', which should help you recover quickly." Lu Linger continued.

Seeing his brother's embarrassment, Gu Yichen recalled the first time Lu Ling'er asked him to take a medicinal bath, and wanted to help Ji Junche out. He coughed lightly, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Ling'er, how about you wait for Ah Che to finish his medicinal bath before coming in for the acupuncture?"

Lu Linger understood immediately, and smiled with a hint of teasing in her eyes: "Husband, what are you worried about? I am a doctor, and I only have patients in my eyes. As for handsome men," she paused and looked at Gu Yichen mischievously, "looking at you is enough for me. After all, you have eight-pack abs."

This joke instantly lightened the tense atmosphere, and the air in the room seemed to grow a bit warmer. However, Lu Linger suddenly realized that Gu Yichen's parents, Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu, were also in the room, and she felt a little embarrassed. She coughed awkwardly and quickly put away her playful smile.

Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu smiled at each other. They didn't mind the banter between the young couple. Instead, they felt that such interaction added to the family warmth.

Ji Junche still felt his face burning. Finally, he mustered the courage to unbutton his shirt and slowly stepped into the medicinal bath. The warm liquid enveloped his body, the scent of the herbs and the heat permeating his nostrils, making him feel the toxins slowly loosen. However, as the effects of the medicine gradually took effect, so did the pain. The liquid began to rapidly penetrate his skin, entering his meridians and stimulating the acupuncture points blocked by the toxins.

"Does it hurt?" Lu Linger's voice came from the side, and she looked at Ji Junche's reaction intently.

Ji Junche clenched his teeth, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He didn't answer, just nodded. The pain pierced every nerve like needles, but he knew it was the body's self-repair process.

Lu Ling'er examined the water, then pulled out a few more silver needles. After quickly disinfecting them, she began to apply acupuncture to Ji Junche's acupuncture points. Her movements were skillful and precise, as if she had already planned the strategy in her mind. Each needle pierced with purpose, and with a gentle twist of her wrist, the silver needles began to release a strange power between the acupuncture points.

"Oh, this is really challenging!" Lu Ling'er couldn't help but mutter to herself while giving you acupuncture. "But rather than treating you, I'm more looking forward to finding some interesting stories to spice things up."

Ji Junche felt the poison gradually loosening with each needle piercing, and an inexplicable warm current flowed through his body. He closed his eyes, tried his best to relax, and felt the changes in his body.

Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu stood aside, watching all this, their hearts filled with gratitude and relief. Lu Ling'er was not only a skilled doctor, but also worked tirelessly to treat their son, which made them more confident that their son would recover. The two elders looked at each other and secretly decided in their hearts that they would do their best to repay Lu Ling'er in the future.

Gu Yichen watched Lu Ling'er's busy back, his heart filled with admiration and love. Although she acted indifferent, he knew that every move and decision she made was to cure his brother. He sighed softly, walked to his parents, and whispered, "Don't worry, with Ling'er here, Ah Che will definitely get better."

Ji Junche felt a slight sting from the silver needles, but compared to the intense pain of the medicinal bath, it was almost insignificant. He tried to calm himself, took a deep breath, and let the medicinal liquid seep into every cell. He knew that this was his path to rebirth.

Under Lu Ling'er's guidance, and with the combined effects of the silver needles and the medicinal bath, Ji Junche's body gradually returned to its normal color, and the purple-black poisonous lines slowly faded. His breathing gradually stabilized, and the painful expression on his face began to ease.

"After you take a medicinal bath, I will give you acupuncture and use my unique acupuncture to gradually expel the toxins from your body. Then drink the 'washing soup'. This process needs to be done three times, with an interval of ten days between each time. The toxins will gradually decrease, and the pain you suffer will also decrease accordingly." Lu Linger wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued to concentrate on giving acupuncture to Ji Junche. Her eyes were sharp and her technique was precise and unquestionable.
