Chapter 63 Reciprocity
"I know I've been poisoned since childhood, but Young Master Sheng, you say it's a Gu poison?"
Ouyang Xue refused to believe it, "My father sought out renowned doctors from all over the country, spending countless sums of money in search of miraculous medicines, all to prolong my life."
"But I have never heard any doctor say that they have been poisoned by Gu."
"Does Young Master Sheng perhaps believe his medical skills surpass those of all the renowned doctors in the world?"
Ouyang Xue's tone was somewhat sarcastic.
She knew the significance of this accusation; if there were truly so many renowned doctors, it was impossible for them not to have detected the existence of the Gu poison.
Sheng Wansong was saying that her most beloved father had kept it from her.
"Lord Ouyang may have been trying to be kind by keeping it from you so you wouldn't worry."
Sheng Wansong gave a casual explanation.
Sheng Wansong's medical skills may surpass those of the most famous doctors in the world, but it is unlikely that his medical skills surpass those of the most famous doctors in the world.
Because Sheng Wansong doesn't need medical skills at all.
No matter how skilled you are as a doctor, can you bring the dead back to life?
"If Miss Ouyang doesn't believe me, I can provide some proof."
Ouyang Xue asked skeptically, "How will you prove it, young master?"
"I only need to use my internal energy to slightly stimulate the Gu worms, and you will naturally be able to discover the truth."
"Ouyang Xue looks forward to seeing what Young Master Sheng can do."
Ouyang Xue did not doubt her father, but rather wanted to prove to outsiders that his suspicions were wrong.
Seeing that she agreed, Sheng Wansong raised his palm.
Ouyang Xue took the initiative to sit down at the table, placed her hands on the table, and slightly lifted her sleeves to reveal her fair and slender wrists.
On the unhealthy wrist, the blue veins are faintly visible.
"Patients of the past all mastered the technique of 'pulse diagnosis via a suspended thread.' I wonder if you, sir, are familiar with it?"
but.
Ouyang Xue recalled their encounter two days ago. Since such contact had already occurred, the trivial matter of taking a pulse was insignificant.
"Miss Ouyang seems to have misunderstood."
Sheng Wansong's gaze swept over the wrist and then continued forward, stopping at Ouyang Xue's lower abdomen.
"Stimulating the Gu worms is an extremely dangerous action."
"If the stimulation is too strong, it will release too many toxins and endanger the girl's life."
"If the stimulus is too weak, it will not produce a response."
"It has to be just the right amount of force, enough to make it roll over like it's getting grumpy in the morning but not wake it up."
"To keep a close eye on this force, you must get as close as possible to the location of the Gu worm."
Ouyang Xue followed Sheng Wansong's gaze and, upon discovering where it landed, was immediately filled with shame and anger. "Young Master, are you perhaps making fun of me?"
Could this young master Sheng Wansong be a lecherous man, looking for an excuse to take advantage of someone?
In the end, I don't need to play along with his nonsense. I just need to wait a few more days for my father to come back and ask him what's going on.
She gently bit her white teeth.
"Is it okay to wear it through clothes?"
"Do the appraisers at Mingjian Villa wear gloves when appraising swords?"
Reciprocity is key.
Two days ago, Ouyang Xue touched him, and today Sheng Wansong wants to touch her back.
If Sheng Wansong is determined to save Ouyang Xue, then the procedure is as simple as putting an elephant in a refrigerator.
He used the Seven No-Fold Particle Transformation technique to reach into Ouyang Xue's body, grab the Gu poison, and then take it out.
Three steps are all it takes to get it done.
"Miss Ouyang is too shy."
Sheng Wansong noticed the other party's anger and fanned the flames, saying, "Look at that Yao Ji girl from the Western Regions, she just exposed her navel. What's more, I'm here to treat her."
"The weather in the Western Regions is hot and dry, so people there are used to wearing light clothing, and over time it has become a custom."
Unlike many women who would say that women from the Western Regions are shameless, Ouyang Xue gave appropriate reasons.
But as Ouyang Xue said, the power of custom is immense.
Getting a virtuous woman like Ouyang Xue from the Central Plains to voluntarily expose her lower abdomen is harder than killing her.
Sheng Wansong was aware of this as well, and slowly said, "Since Miss Ouyang is really unwilling, I can try it on through her clothes."
What was that saying?
Ceiling and windows?
After Sheng Wansong backed down, Ouyang Xue gritted her teeth and agreed, "I hope Young Master Sheng's judgment is correct."
"certainly."
Ouyang Xue turned around, her back to the long table, facing the empty doorway.
Lin Xian'er was still happily wielding the Zhanlu sword, each strike powerful and forceful, tearing through the air with a whistling sound.
These days, Xian'er has told me more than once how she was saved by Young Master Sheng, how much she likes him, and that she shouldn't compete with him for his affections.
Ouyang Xue agreed with a smile at the time, but she didn't really think much of it.
She already has someone she loves, so why would she compete with Xian'er for a man?
And Xian'er's taste, hehe.
Who knew that life is unpredictable, and he was ordered by his father to get closer to Sheng Wansong and enhance their relationship.
This agreement was made to fulfill my father's wish.
Ouyang Xue closed her eyes and said softly.
"Please close the door."
"An'an, go out and play with Sister Xian'er."
After An Lan ran out of the house, a gentle breeze blew by and closed the door behind her.
"An'an! An'an!"
"Sister Xian'er, let me show you something amazing!"
Lin Xian'er raised the Zhanlu Sword like a child who had received a glow stick, and slammed it down. Black sword energy slashed out, cutting down countless weeds.
An Lan curled her lip in disdain and turned to look at the tightly closed door.
inside the house.
Ouyang Xue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she subconsciously pulled in her chest and straightened her abdomen, placing her hands on her knees, one on top of the other.
Anyone who didn't know better would think she was waiting for a painter to paint her portrait.
Seeing that she was nervous, Sheng Wansong deliberately stood in front of her, so that Ouyang Xue could feel his presence, but he did not make any move.
As a result, Ouyang Xue was constantly uneasy.
I always feel like I'm about to feel the temperature, but it always turns out to be nothing.
She opened her eyes angrily, "Victory."
At that very moment, Sheng Wansong reached out his right hand and gently pressed it on her abdomen.
"Um."
Caught off guard, Ouyang Xue let out a soft moan.
Familiar hands, familiar warmth, transmitted through the silk to the abdomen.
Ouyang Xue subconsciously contracted her muscles, her face flushing red.
Fortunately, Sheng Wansong looked down and didn't look at her.
Ouyang Xue could feel streams of warmth seeping into Sheng Wansong's palms.
It's not just temperature, but also the subtle, finely differentiated internal energy.
Ouyang Xue was amazed by this level of control.
This trace of internal energy penetrated through the skin, muscles, and acupoints, giving Ouyang Xue an undeniable, strange sensation.
then.
puff.
The sound of a heartbeat.
Ouyang Xue heard the heartbeat inside her body, a second heartbeat that didn't belong to her.
Although quite faint, it undoubtedly exists.
"insanity!"
Before I could think about it, a sharp pain spread from my abdomen.
Even if it's just for a moment of clarity, the Gu worm releases a lethal dose of toxin enough to kill several people.
"Hold your heart and guard your heart."
Sheng Wansong gestured to Ouyang Xue to protect her heart meridian.
He pressed down hard, as if trying to tear the brocade, and a large amount of internal energy surged into Ouyang Xue's abdomen, filling her abdominal cavity and purifying the toxins released by the Gu worms.
Much later.
Ouyang Xue slowly opened her eyes, her gaze complex. "Thank you for saving my life, Young Master Sheng."
"It was my job to awaken the Gu worms; it's what I should do."
Ouyang Xue bit her lower lip and whispered, "Hand."
Sheng Wansong then seemed to wake from a dream and raised his palm.
The warmth still lingered in Ouyang Xue's abdomen.
