“Zhou Heng, what did you say just now?”
Yu Fulai stood up all of a sudden. His eyes seemed to glow with excitement.
“You can use acupuncture techniques?!”
He was very surprised. Finally, there was a bright and dazzling light beneath this blanket of deep darkness.
“Big Brother Zhou, can you really use acupuncture to save my brother?” Yu Yingying looked at Zhou Heng with a tear-stained face. Her gaze was full of anticipation.
“That’s right.” Zhou Heng nodded.
The Meridian and Qi Clearing Acupuncture Manipulation could cure such a disease. Even the stagnation of Cheng Jiangjian’s qi and blood circulation that had been contaminated by ghost aura could be treated. Naturally, it could also be used to unblock Zhou Heng’s qi and blood circulation.
After learning that he possessed the Supreme Yang Divine Soul, Cheng Jiangjian realized that it was his Supreme Yang Divine Soul that had helped her to dispel the ghost aura before this. As such, it was no longer a matter of the acupuncture technique being rare or exotic, so there was no need to hide it from others.
Yu Fulai’s heart burst as he heard his words.
‘That’s great!
‘There’s some hope!’
After Dr. Liao and the rest had left, he had fallen into utter despair. He was prepared to watch Yu He die without any medication treatment.
Little did he expect for the proverbial sunshine after the rain. Yu He’s bosom friend could actually perform acupuncture!
It was a pleasant surprise, but Yu Fulai was a little worried.
‘Zhou Heng is still very young and only seventeen years old, how could he possibly know such a profound acupuncture technique?
‘Moreover, he doesn’t have ninth-class cultivation nor internal qi.
‘Perhaps he’s worried about Yu He. After seeing that everyone was at their wit’s end, he’s stepping forward to try everything possible to save Yu He?’
Yu Fulai’s heart was a bit touched.
‘It’s undoubtedly a blessing for his son to have such a bosom friend and good buddy.
‘However, being concerned alone doesn’t guarantee the effectiveness of the treatment.
‘A seventeen-year-old unranked martial artist will find it hard to convince people that he actually has a superior level of skill in acupuncture technique compared to Dr. Liao and the other doctors!
‘Even Dr. Liao and the rest of the doctors were helpless, how could he possibly be able to…’
As he thought of this, Yu Fulai smiled bitterly again. ‘What’s the point of pondering over these issues at this moment?
‘If I don’t let Zhou Heng give it a try, what other solutions do I have?
‘It’s a dead end!
‘I can only watch Yu He die!’
Yu Fulai took a deep breath. He looked at Zhou Heng and said, “Zhou Heng, I’ll ask you again, are you sure you are up for it?”
The expectant look in Yu Yingying’s gaze was strong. She hoped Zhou Heng could say the word “Yes” and save Zhou Heng.
She was already at the end of her rope and could only pin her hopes on him.
Zhou Heng remained decisive. He nodded and said, “I can do it.”
“No, I’m asking whether you’re able to bear the psychological pressure that may come after, should you fail to save the patient?” Yu Fulai sighed and continued, “Of course, I hope that you can save Yu He. But you heard Dr. Liao and the other doctors just now. Yu He’s condition is very serious. If you fail to save him, I’m afraid you’ll blame yourself for the rest of your life.”
“Uncle Yu, don’t worry.” Zhou Heng shook his head gently and said in a low voice, “I don’t think I’ll fail.”
“Great!” When Yu Fulai saw that Zhou Heng was that confident, he could not help but feel hopeful again and said, “Then come with me, Yingying. We’ll wait outside.”
Yu Yingying was still young and emotionally fragile. So, it was best not to let her face the matter of life and death in such close quarters.
“Okay.” Yu Yingying was understanding. She nodded gently and stood aside. She said to Zhou Heng with reddened eyes, “Big Brother Zhou, you must heal my brother.”
People who were about to fall off the cliff would scramble to grab hold of anything. If it happened to be a single straw, they would not let go as long as they breathed.
“Don’t worry.” Zhou Heng smiled. Then, he went into the bedroom with Yu Fulai.
As they entered the bedroom, Zhou Heng immediately felt the surrounding temperature plummeting drastically.
Yu He was lying on the bed and covered with a thick quilt. Only his head was exposed.
The skin on his face and forehead was already dry and cracked. His face was ghastly pale, his lips purple. If not for his slight trembling, one could mistake him as a corpse.
Zhou Heng walked over to him. He lifted the quilt and observed Yu He’s overall condition. Then, he touched him with his hand. He felt as cold as ice.
A crease appeared between his eyebrows.
“How is he?” As Yu Fulai saw Zhou Heng frowning, his heart skipped a beat. He could not help but asked him, “A-Are there any problems? Are there any difficulties?”
“Not much of a big problem.” Zhou Heng nodded. At the same time, he took out his silver needles.
Now, he no longer had any hesitation about using the Meridian and Qi Clearing Acupuncture Manipulation.
Through his observation just now, he had already determined that Yu He was not sick at all. Instead, his form had been infiltrated by ghostly aura.
But the ghost aura was extremely obscure and very thin. Therefore, it was difficult to detect.
If not for Zhou Heng having drawn out the attribute of insight, no one could have seen this through.
‘But, such an obscure and thin ghost aura should have very little impact. Why is Yu He so close to death?
‘Unless the ghost is of a higher nature?
‘Why is there another ghost appearing in Yellow Wood City?
‘Hasn’t my Yang energy been sealed by Cheng Jiangjian’s chinese talisman?
‘Why are there still ghosts appearing?’
Zhou Heng could not figure it out, so he could only put aside those speculations. Most importantly, he had to stabilize Yu He’s condition first.
He picked up those silver needles and pierced them into both of Yu He’s hands and legs.
“You’re delivering Eighth-Class Meridian and Qi Clearing Acupuncture Manipulation for healing. The level of proficiency increased by 10.”
“You’re delivering Eighth-Class Meridian and Qi Clearing Acupuncture Manipulation for healing, with precise insight and perfect piercing of acupoints. The level of proficiency increased by 50.”
“You’re delivering Eighth-Class Meridian and Qi Clearing Acupuncture Manipulation for healing. The level of proficiency increased by 18.”
While delivering the acupuncture, Zhou Heng further discovered the powerful effects of the one point increase for the insight.
It allowed him to insert those silver needles into the corresponding acupoints with precision and accuracy. He avoided mistakes in applying the acupuncture technique to the maximum extent.
Even though he applied the needles accurately, he was still not skilled enough. After all, he had not actually practiced it.
Of course, it would only look bad from the surface. In fact, as long as he was able to insert the needles accurately to trigger the acupuncture technique.
However, with such a clumsy application of acupuncture technique, even a layman like Yu Fulai could see how green he was. As such, he could not help but feel his scalp tingle with cold sweat.
He almost could not resist the urge to dash up and drag Zhou Heng down.
‘How could this happen?
‘Wasn’t he full of confidence just now? Why is his acupuncture technique so haphazard and clumsy?
Yu Fulai felt that there was only total darkness before his eyes. It was completely hopeless now.
‘It’s over!’
At that moment, Zhou Heng’s voice was heard.
“Alright. His condition has almost stabilized.”
‘Stabilized?
‘What do you mean, stabilized?’
Yu Fulai almost thought he had heard wrongly. He looked at Zhou Heng in a puzzlement and asked skeptically, “Zhou Heng, what did you say just now? What’s stabilized?”
“Basically, Yu He’s condition has stabilized, and his life is not in danger for the time being.” Zhou Heng pointed at Yu He, who was lying on the bed. He smiled gently and continued, “Uncle Yu, you can be at ease now.”
‘What?!
‘A task which not even Dr. Liao and the rest could handle has now been stabilized that fast?!
‘That’s too fast!’
Despite Yu Fulai being incomparably shocked, Zhou Heng’s words were like heavenly music to him. He immediately rushed to Yu He’s bed and carefully looked at him.
