The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 31: Fight Poison with Poison
Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Fight Poison with Poison
For a moment, the surroundings became quiet, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Suddenly, Chi Ying broke the tense atmosphere and said urgently, "Old Li, didn’t I tell you last time? Xiao Yu doesn’t know that Ghost Doctor."
Li Chongbai didn’t believe it and eagerly looked towards Nan Yu, asking again.
"Xiao Yu, do you know Ghost Doctor Chang Ming?"
Nan Yu’s eyes were shallow, showing a puzzled expression, "Dean Li, is that important?"
Li Chongbai stared into her eyes intently, trying to find a flaw, "Chang Ming was a good friend of mine, but he died two years ago. I saw the name ’Chang Ming’ engraved on your Silver Needle, and that made me curious."
Nan Yu replied softly, "The Silver Needle was a gift from someone else."
Li Chongbai looked into her eyes, which were clear and pure, without a trace of impurity, evidently not lying.
His face showed a look of disappointment, but he quickly covered it up, and displayed an awkward smile, interrupting her.
"I really am senile. When I just saw you, I thought I was seeing Chang Ming, mistaking you as Chang Ming’s disciple."
"Now that I take a closer look, Chang Ming’s disciple is ten years older than you and does not share your surname. It is impossible for you to be his disciple, I was wrong."
Once he finished, he no longer wanted to discuss this matter, he lowered his eyes, then focused on examining her wound again.
"Xiao Yu, you mentioned using acupuncture and medicinal liquid for treatment to achieve full recovery, how exactly would that work?"
Nan Yu’s gaze shifted slightly, she pursed her red lips, showed a smile, and stretched out her right hand, pointing to a few acupoints, "Perform acupuncture at these points for one hour daily, then soak in the medicinal liquid for ten minutes, it can speed up the healing, then apply the medicine until fully healed."
Li Chongbai noted down each acupoint she pointed to, finding all of them to be involved in promoting blood circulation, preventing the damaged nerves from dying, and maintaining their activity.
"Is there a prescription? Would you mind letting me see it?"
Nan Yu pulled out her phone, scrolled through her notes, and typed with one hand.
In less than two minutes, a prescription appeared before Li Chongbai.
"Use these herbs."
Li Chongbai took a look, and found all the herbs common and affordable, mainly for soothing tendons, promoting circulation, and relieving inflammation and pain.
Individually, each herb seemed fine, but when combined, they conflicted with each other, creating a potent toxin in the body.
He puzzledly said, "Xiao Yu, used together, these could cause mild poisoning and vomiting at best, and be life-threatening at worst. Can this truly heal?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Ying widened her eyes, extremely anxious, "Old Li, are you mistaken? How could Xiao Yu harm herself?"
Nan Yu started explaining, "Grandma, Dean Li is not mistaken, these herbs together truly make a poisonous broth."
"But they can fight poison with poison, keeping the nerves in my arm active, and once healed, it won’t cause any issues."
At these words, Chi Ying’s eyebrows furrowed even more, and her worry deepened, "But it’s poisonous, what if it harms your body..."
Nan Yu gave her a reassuring smile, "Grandma, it will be fine, I know what I’m doing."
Thud!
Li Chongbai suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed loudly, "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"
Chi Ying, startled, looked at Li Chongbai with confusion, "Old Li, what’s the matter?"
Li Chongbai didn’t answer her but his eyes sparkled with excitement as he looked at Nan Yu with anticipation.
His tone was kind, even pleading, "Xiao Yu, could you let me use your method to treat you?"
"If you are not willing, then allow me to watch each time you treat yourself!"
Fearing Nan Yu might refuse, he added another line.
"Or, name your price, and I’ll pay you just to let me watch how you perform the acupuncture once."
