Chapter 164: The Sword Cultivator Cousin in the Immortal Cultivation Fiction (26)
"What?!" In Yunxia Courtyard, Lin Xi held the armrests of the wheelchair tightly with both hands, his face turned pale, and he exclaimed in a trembling voice.
"Fifth Master, severing a person's spinal cord and then reconnecting it is really too horrifying. Moreover, Miss Lin is physically powerless, and the pain of having her spinal cord severed would be unbearable. Why don't we look at other methods?"
Even though it was common for cultivators to break arms and legs when they went out to train, and the worst that could happen was they could just be reattached, when Yue Qian heard the healing method that Yu Xusheng provided for Lin Xi, she couldn't help but gasp.
"Don't be afraid, Miss Lin." Yu Xusheng, who was wearing a crimson purple cloak, had an elegant temperament. She smiled gently to comfort Lin Xi, "Before breaking the bones, I will let you take the soul-soothing pill to relieve the pain."
Lin Xi opened her mouth and was about to speak, but Yue Qian spoke first, "The Soul-Calming Pill can only calm the mind, but it won't do much to relieve the pain. If you really want to break the bones, why not just use the Ecstasy Powder to make Miss Lin fall asleep."
Yue Qian's words hit the mark exactly what Lin Xi wanted. If she could fall asleep, she would consider it as a surgery under general anesthesia. So she looked at Yu Xusheng, who seemed very easy to talk to, with anticipation.
"No, breaking bones and reconnecting marrow is a dangerous matter. Miss Lin needs to be conscious throughout the whole process and must not fall asleep." Yu Xusheng received Lin Xi's pitiful look and shook his head helplessly, breaking her fantasy.
"Hiss~" Yue Qian took a breath of cold air, "Fifth Master, is there no other way? The kind that doesn't involve breaking bones and reconnecting marrow."
"Yes, it is. It is just that she is slowly recuperating with natural materials and treasures, so she naturally does not need to suffer this pain. However..." At this point, he glanced at Lin Xi's legs and said with some regret, "Even with such careful recuperation for a long time, I am afraid it will not be able to recover as before."
Lin Xi felt her legs go cold when his gaze swept over her. She couldn't help but imagine herself drinking countless bitter medicines, and finally being able to walk, but only limping awkwardly. She quickly shook her head and threw this picture out of her mind.
"It's up to you, the girl, to decide." Facing Lin Xi's hesitation, Yu Xusheng showed no impatience. After explaining the pros and cons with a smile, he handed the choice to Lin Xi herself.
"Then I'll have to trouble the immortal to... break the bones... and reconnect the marrow for me." Lin Xi gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision.
"Then let's do as the young lady says." Yu Xusheng smiled slightly, and then began to describe the treatment process in detail to Lin Xi.
"The marrow of a person is the source of bones and blood. Although the girl's treatment requires cutting the marrow and then reconnecting it, we should not rush to achieve the goal. In the first three days, you should take a bath with herbs for several hours to soften the tendons and bones and allow the blood to flow smoothly. When the time is right, you can use external force to cut the marrow and reconnect it. And during the process of cutting the marrow and reconnecting the bones, the girl needs to be clear-minded..."
……
Hot steam was rising in curls. Behind a half-meter-high stone plum brocade screen, the woman's hair was wet from the steam and her face was flushed.
She closed her eyes, clenched her teeth, and clasped the edge of the barrel with her slender fingers. Her knuckles turned slightly white from excessive force, and she seemed to be enduring great pain.
Outside the pharmacy, Yu Xusheng, who was lazily sipping tea, glanced at Bu Yueqian, who was pacing back and forth with an uneasy look on his face, and said helplessly: "Nephew, don't hang around here, sit down and have a cup of tea, Miss Lin won't be in any trouble."
Seeing Yuxu's calm and composed appearance, Yue Qian couldn't help but frown, her tone full of worry, "Fifth Master, didn't you say that this medicinal bath is painful like gnawing at bones? How come Miss Lin has been in the bath for such a long time but there is no sound at all? Could she have fainted from the pain?"
Yu Xusheng put down the teacup in his hand and sighed, "You are so concerned that you are confused. Have you even forgotten the most basic method of listening to the sound and detecting the breath for a cultivator? The girl's breathing is disordered and rapid. How can she look like she is unconscious?"
Yue Qian was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and she focused her consciousness to scan inside. Seeing that it was just as Yu Xusheng said, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second, she began to worry about another problem, "But why didn't she make a sound? Could it be that the drug was not strong enough and she didn't feel any pain?"
"If you are really worried, why not ask her?" Yu Xusheng shook his head helplessly. He really didn't understand why this nephew who was usually as taciturn as Qingchuan had become so talkative now.
"But uncle-master, didn't you say that the most taboo during the medicinal bath is to avoid a disturbed mind and a lack of concentration? If I speak rashly, I'm afraid it will disturb her, right?" Yue Qian was about to speak, but suddenly remembered what Yu Xusheng had told her before, and hurriedly lowered her voice.
"It's a good thing you still remember what I said. If you keep wandering around like this, not to mention Miss Lin, I, your uncle, will be distracted and unable to concentrate." Yu Xusheng held his forehead with his hand, looking helpless. Seeing that Yue Qian wanted to speak more, he interrupted her.
"Okay, you have to soak in this medicinal bath for another two hours. I still have some matters to deal with in my pharmacy. I will come over when the time is up." After saying this, without waiting for Yue Qian to react, he summoned the Sword of Life and disappeared into the sky.
"Hey! Fifth Uncle Master!" Yue Qian didn't expect that he would slip away so easily. She called out in amazement, but there was no sign of him anywhere. She could only keep her mouth shut and wait outside the pharmacy worriedly.
