Chapter 223: The Thousand-Year-Old Cold Jade Bed for Healing
??
“Oh right, did you take the Jade Dew last time?”
Fang Qingshan thought that Gu Xi had not taken it, or that he had only taken a little. Otherwise, his injuries would not have remained the same. It seemed like there were no changes.
Who would have thought that Gu Xi would say, “I’ve taken it all.”
Fang Qingshan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. “You’ve taken it all, but there’s still no effect?”
“There is a little effect.”
The hidden danger left behind by the Demon Venerable had been removed, and even Little Ancient had benefited from it. Gu Xi guessed that it was probably because the Winged Golden Black Bugs had sensed Little Ancient’s aura, that was why it had come to the Moyu Tower.
Even the Jade Dew could not completely treat Gu Xi’s injuries. It seemed that Gu Xi’s injuries were even more troublesome than Fang Qingshan had imagined.
Fang Qingshan dismissed the rest of the people and arranged everything before starting to treat Gu Xi’s injuries.
There was a large piece of white jade in the hall. It was crystal clear and glimmered with a faint divine light. It was still emitting cold air. It was bone-piercing cold when one got close to it. One look and one could tell that it was extraordinary.
...
Fang Qingshan introduced, “This is a Thousand-year-old Cold Jade Bed. Whether you heal or circulate your Qi, it will have a miraculous effect. However, you’re a mortal now, so you might not be able to withstand the cold air. Take this jade pendant with you. With me guarding you, it won’t be too much of a problem.”
Gu Xi took the jade pendant and put it on his chest. Only then did he carefully sit on it.
The cold air instantly spread from the soles of his feet, and he almost could not help but shiver. After all, he had no spiritual energy at all now. Without cultivation, there was no way he could withstand such cold air.
In just a moment, the color of Gu Xi’s face went pale, and even his lips became extremely pale, like thin paper. His whole body trembled violently.
“Hold on a little longer.”
A green light emerged from Fang Qingshan’s hand, enveloping him within it. It was as if there was an inexplicable power flowing in his blood, examining the situation everywhere.
Sensing that this power had no ill intentions, Gu Xi allowed it to be free. However, the chill was getting stronger and stronger, to the point that a layer of faint ice crystals had formed on his eyebrows and eyelashes.
The temperature of his body suddenly dropped, causing Gu Xi to gradually lose consciousness. The vision between his eyelids was so intense that the scene in front of him became blurry, and a double image appeared.
As if he knew that he could no longer hold on, Fang Qingshan frowned slightly. With a tap of his finger, like a dragonfly skimming the water, he brushed past the jade pendant.
The jade pendant on his chest emitted a warm glow, protecting Gu Xi’s entire heart meridian. At the same time, there was a warm feeling, like the sunshine of midsummer. Gu Xi quivered, slowly opened his eyes, and became clear-headed again.
At this moment, he did not feel as uncomfortable as before, as if he was soaking in a hot spring. Although it was still a little cold, he felt much better than before.
In contrast, Fang Qingshan, whose face was originally rosy, became a little ugly at this moment, and even beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead.
Gu Xi saw Fang Qingshan’s hands form a complicated seal, and the green spiritual power drew out a complicated pattern, which then entered his body. He could clearly feel that the originally damaged and knotted meridians slowly becoming smooth.
He could tell that this was some kind of secret skill, which required a lot of spiritual energy and energy. Otherwise, Fang Qingshan’s face would not have turned so pale in such a short time.
However, the meridians in his body had been damaged too much, and it could be said that there was not a single undamaged part in his body. This method was undoubtedly a drop in the bucket.
It was obvious that Fang Qingshan had also realized this. “It might be a little painful next. Please bear with it for a while.”
Gu Xi nodded. While he was muttering to himself, the hand seals on his hand became faster and faster. A few afterimages flashed across the sky, and many green light spots circled around him.
The light from the jade pendant on his chest grew brighter and brighter. The burning sensation was as if a ball of flame was burning fiercely, to the point that Gu Xi could not bear it at all. It was as if all the blood in his body had been burnt dry.
At the same time, the icy cold aura on the jade bed below became even more bone-piercing. It was as if his entire body had been frozen on a thousand-year-old snowy mountain, and all his meridians had been frozen into ice.
At this moment, Gu Xi could be said to be living in deep water and fire. His entire body had been divided into two extreme halves. It be seen on his face. One half of his face was like a cooked prawn, while the other half was extremely pale.
Fang Qinyu and the others did not leave. They just stood guard outside.
Looking at Fang Qinyu, who was walking around, casting worried glances at the door from time to time, Li Junyan frowned. He could not help but say, “Junior Sister Fang, Can you stop? I’m almost dizzy from your pacing.”
Fang Qinyu revealed an embarrassed smile and said nervously, “Eldest Brother, Father and Big Brother Gu have been in there for so long. Why haven’t they come out yet? It can’t be that something has happened, right?”
Li Junyan’s expression was a little helpless. “What could possibly happen to them? Moreover, you know Master’s medical skills. I think there shouldn’t be any problems.”
Even so, Fang Qinyu was still worried. “But father also said before that Brother Gu’s condition is very rare, and it’s also quite troublesome. His injuries are too serious.”
Li Junyan stared at her and did not say anything for a long time. It was until Fang Qinyu felt a little unnatural all over that she could not help but touch her face.
“Eldest Senior Brother, why are you staring at me like that? Could it be that there is something dirty on my face?”
He had never seen Fang Qinyu so worried. Even if there were fellow disciples who were injured in the past, he had never seen her like this.
