Chapter 205: Cao Rui
this time was different from before. The two palm winds Ye Bufan struck out only had the strength of an early Nascent Soul, yet they emanated a scorching aura that was completely different from befor..."What, can you cure it"
Hearing Ye Bufan's words, Lu Qingzhi suddenly stood up, a gleam of excitement flashed across his face, but he soon regained his composure.
"Young people, if you want to buy my house, relying on popularity alone won't do."
After calming down, he thought Ye Bufan was just bragging, and his purpose was still to buy his Xinyuan Garden.
Such a young doctor, his medical skills could never possibly surpass his own, let alone cure his own daughter.
Ye Bufan said with certainty: "Old Lu, I'm not trying to gain popularity by making empty promises, nor am I boasting. Xia's illness can indeed be cured."
Lu Qingzhi's gaze burned with intensity as he looked at him, seeing the unwavering confidence in his eyes. He couldn't help but ask doubtfully: "Are you sure"
"OK!"
"Then, tell me, what's wrong with my daughter"
Ye Bufan said: "Banxia is not a physical illness, but..."
Before he could finish his sentence, an excited voice rang out from the doorway, "Uncle Lu, I'm here!"
Three people followed the sound and saw a young man in his twenties or thirties walking in excitedly from outside. He was wearing a long robe and carrying a medicine chest in his hand.
"Xiaorui, when will you be back"
Lu Qingzhi recognized the visitor. It was Cao Rui, the grandson of his old friend Cao Qinghua.
"I studied at the headquarters of Imperial Capital Baicao Hall for three years, and now I've finally returned after finishing my studies." Cao Rui said excitedly, "Uncle Lu, I'm here to treat Banxia."
“Treating Banxia” Lu Qingzhi shook his head. “Your kind uncle appreciates your thought, but your grandfather was helpless against Banxia’s illness. What could you possibly do”
Even if you claimed to have studied in the capital for three years, or even thirty years, I doubt you would be able to do anything about it.
He was telling the truth. Neither he nor Cao Xinghua could cure Lu Banxia. Cao Rui, a young man, no matter how skilled he was, couldn't possibly surpass the two old masters.
Cao Rui still excitedly said: "Uncle Lu, you don't know, I just learned the Thirteen Needles to Drive Away Evil from my grandpa, so I dare say I can cure Banxia's illness."
"What, can you drive out evil spirits with thirteen needles That's impossible, your grandpa wouldn't even know how. If he did, he would have used it to cure Banxia ages ago, there's no way it would be your turn!"
Cao Xinghua and Lu Qingzhi have a close relationship and have discussed Lu Banxia's condition many times before. They finally concluded that it is not a physical illness, but possibly contaminated by evil energy.
Although they were aware of this, they only inherited ordinary medical skills and had no way to dispel the evil qi.
They had seen Drivingsoul Thirteen Needles in ancient texts, but they had only heard the name. This magical acupuncture technique had been lost for many years.
Cao Rui said, "Uncle Lu, you probably haven't heard about this yet. My grandfather found his master's senior brother and learned the thirteen needles to dispel evil spirits from him. He passed on all the knowledge to me."
Ye Bufan had been watching from the side all along. He passed the Thirteen Needles for Dispelling Evil to Cao Xinghua and not only did he not forbid its spread, but he encouraged its transmission. Therefore, he wasn't surprised by Cao Rui's statement.
Lu Qingzhi said with a hint of disbelief, "Is that really true Then why doesn't your grandpa come"
Cao Rui said, "My grandfather is still in seclusion. He says that there is important medical knowledge passed down by the master he needs to comprehend, so I came over first to treat Banxia."
"That's great, that's wonderful."
Lu Qingzhi immediately became excited and took Cao Rui's hand, saying, "Come with me quickly."
These years he has been trying every way to cure his daughter's illness, today he finally sees hope.
Compared to Ye Bufan, who knows nothing about the situation, he naturally trusts his old friend's grandson more, after all, he comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine.
Two people entered Lu Banxia's room. Qin Chuchu glanced at Ye Bufan and whispered, "Xiaofan, what should we do"
Ye Bufan said, “Let’s go in and have a look.”
He was very clear about Lu Banxia's condition. It wasn't "evil qi" entering the body at all. Let alone the fact that the "Thirteen Needles to Drive Away Evil" technique was profound, even if Cao Rui truly understood it completely, he wouldn't be able to cure this illness.
However, he did not explicitly state it, neither Lu Qingzhi nor Cao Rui would believe him even if he did.
And Cao Rui, being young and impetuous like a newborn calf unafraid of tigers, dared to use his meager medical skills recklessly after just learning a little. It's only right that he should be taught a lesson.
Two people followed them into the room. Lu Qingzhi and Cao Rui's attention was entirely on Lu Banxia, and they didn't notice the two of them.
What was surprising was that Lu Banxia had been occasionally letting out roars before, but after the four people entered, he suddenly fell silent.
But its two eyes stared fiercely at several people, those eyes seemed not to belong to a human being at all, making people feel terrified.
Cao Rui said: "Uncle Lu, you see Banxia's eyes are completely wrong. They are full of murderous intent."
Lu Qingzhi said, "Xiaorui, my grandfather and I discussed this before. It's possible that Banxia has been possessed by evil spirits, but after all these years, we haven't found a solution."
Cao Rui said: “Uncle Lu, don't worry, grandpa said Master Ye is a strange man. With his teachings of the Thirteen Needles to Ward Off Evil Spirits, he will surely cure your ailment!”
Lu Qingzhi said, "Xiao Rui, I know what you're thinking. Back then you liked Banxia. If you can cure her illness, I, as an old man, will agree to marry Banxia off to you."
Although our two families are old friends, my previous promise still stands, and I will give you the Anxin Garden as well.
"That's great, thank you Uncle Lu!"
Cao Rui was not very concerned about the Xinglin Garden. What he cared about was Lu Banxia.
Three years ago, he was also a member of the army pursuing Lu Banxia. Unfortunately, love is unrequited; Lu Banxia did not like him, it was all one-sided love.
The reason I snuck out after just learning the Thirteen Needles to Exorcise Evil Spirits was to win Lu Banxia's heart.
After he finished speaking, he opened his medicine box and took out the syringe.
Seeing that Cao Rui was about to give Lu Banxia the Thirteen Needles of Exorcising Evil, Ye Bufan said: "Didn't your grandfather tell you what situations are suitable for using the Thirteen Needles of Exorcising Evil"
Cao Rui raised his eyes to look at him, and said with some displeasure: "This is common sense, isn't it Of course, the Thirteen Needles to Drive Away Evil are used when evil qi enters the body."
But how do you judge if someone has evil energy in their body Don't you need to take their pulse
When teaching Cao Qinghua the Thirteen Needles to Ward Off Evil Spirits, he specifically emphasized that one must first master the pulse diagnosis of Yin and Yang meridians before using this acupuncture method. Only after confirming the condition can one administer the correct acupoints.
This is also the reason why Cao Xinhua, after mastering acupuncture techniques, continued to retreat and seclusion. The methods of diagnosing pulse based on Yin-Yang meridians are more complex and difficult to master in a short period of time.
And Cao Rui in front of him picked up a silver needle to prick, obviously without the awareness of taking a pulse.
"Cao Rui had run out secretly, and said in a disgruntled tone: 'What does this have to do with you Just stand aside and don't interfere with me treating the sick.'"
After that, he picked up a silver needle and thrust it towards Lu Banxia's chest.
Ye Bufan didn't stop him any further. This naive youth deserved to suffer a little, only by hitting a wall would he know to turn back.
Cao Rui ignored the others and plunged the first needle in.
"Not enough force, too light."
Ye Bufan shook his head slightly. This guy obviously hadn't mastered the Thirteen Needles to Exorcise Demons, yet he came out showing off.
Cao Rui glared at him fiercely, but said nothing. He picked up the second silver needle and stabbed it again.n into a sky full of sparks, dissipating into nothingness."Roar..."Hachisaka no Orochi spat out another ice sword, but before it could get close, Kou Chien sliced it into a shower of ice shards with a...
