“Go out and wait first. I’m going to give Second Brother acupuncture.”
She could not disappear into the pharmacy in front of Wei Ting and Wei Liulang. She had to send the two of them away first.
Wei Liulang knew her treatment habits; he understood that she did not like anyone present. He went out smoothly.
Wei Ting looked at her deeply.
Su Xiaoxiao met his probing gaze. For a moment, she almost thought that she couldn’t hide her little secret anymore.
However, with Wei Ting’s brain, she was indeed on the verge of losing her cover.
“I’ll guard outside. Call me if you need anything.”
After saying this, Wei Ting stood up and left the room.
Wei Ting didn’t have the habit of peeping. Su Xiaoxiao wasn’t worried that he would suddenly come in.
Moreover, if he said that he would stand guard, he would not let anyone in.
Su Xiaoxiao stabilized Wei Qing’s breathing with acupuncture before closing her eyes and entering the pharmacy.
Look, everything was going quite smoothly. It had to fumble when the Gu was invited in the flower hall just now.
Su Xiaoxiao entered the training room.
The flower pot of the Snake Bone Flower was placed in a transparent gla.s.s cover.
This was not an ordinary gla.s.s cover. It was a vessel that simulated the light environment. It could allow plants to photosynthesize inside.
When transplanting the Snake Bone Flower, it was only a blade of gra.s.s and a flower bud.
At this moment, the gra.s.s and leaves were lush. The flower bud at the top had long bloomed. It was a snake bone flower that was as big as a sunflower. It was red and delicate, like a slender bride waiting to be married.
In the flower pot, Su Xiaoxiao discovered a small new bud.
It was pink and tender. It should be a flower bud.
It was rare for a Snake Bone Flower to split into two buds. Usually, after the flower was plucked, it would take at least three months for a new bud to grow.
This was still a relatively smooth situation.
If it did not go smoothly, it might take two to three years for a new sprout to sprout.
Typically, flowers would start to sprout and split in May. From June to July, there would be buds, which meant that small buds would grow. After August, there would be a long germination process. It would only officially bloom in February or March of the next year.
The pharmacy’s fertilizer greatly shortened its cycle.
It had just bloomed when a new flower bud split.
Su Xiaoxiao felt that perhaps in a month or two, the second Snake Bone Flower would bloom.
That way, Wei Xu could be saved.
This was a huge surprise.
After Su Xiaoxiao finished picking the Snake Bone Flower, she brought the Snow Domain Hemp, Jade Coral, Purple Lingzhi, and other herbs out of the pharmacy.
Su Xiaoxiao had performed acupuncture on Wei Qing, who regained some consciousness.
Su Xiaoxiao had just come out with a big stove when she saw him staring at her.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked.
It was so awkward.
Fortunately, Wei Qing’s consciousness was not too clear and he could not tell if it was a dream. His eyelids sank and he fell asleep again.
Su Xiaoxiao put down the stove and opened the door a crack. She gave Wei Ting a prescription. “Bring this prescription to the pharmacy to get some medicine. Also, get Sixth Brother to help me start a fire. I’m going to start brewing the medicine.”
“Okav.”
Wei Ting took the prescription and split up with Wei Liulang.
Su Xiaoxiao moved the big stove out.
The a.s.sa.s.sin looked puzzled. “Where did this furnace come from?”
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression didn’t change. “It… was just moved in. You didn’t see it.”
The a.s.sa.s.sin felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t put his finger on it. “I’ll do it.”
“Sure.”
Su Xiaoxiao handed the stove to the a.s.sa.s.sin. ‘Move it to the kitchen.” The prescription was given by Sai Huatuo.
Although Su Xiaoxiao had a.n.a.lyzed the medicinal properties of the various herbs on it and confirmed that they were useful for treating cold illnesses, she had never tried how useful they were.
In addition, the ratio of various herbs was different, and the brewing method was different. The final effect would also be different.
But she didn’t have a chance to get it wrong.
This was because other than the Snow Domain Hemp and the Jade Coral, the other herbs could only be used once.
Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and threw the herbs into the red-hot pill furnace.
Wei Ting returned with the medicine while the others waited anxiously in the courtyard.
“Do you want to bring the herbs in for Xiaoxiao?” Wei Liulang asked.
Wei Ting said, “There’s no need. This isn’t for treating cold illnesses. It’s for nourishing your internal organs. You can use it later.”
Wei Liulang nodded and walked nervously around the courtyard.
The a.s.sa.s.sin and Mei Ji stood under the tree with solemn expressions.
Li Wan guarded Wei Qing’s bed and held his cold hand tightly.
It was rare for Wei Xu to be quiet tonight. He slept and did not disturb anyone.
The atmosphere in the entire courtyard was very tense.
“Daddy.”
Xiaohu came out in a daze. “Xiaohu wants to pee.”
Wei Ting walked over and led him to pee.
Xiaohu fell asleep in his arms.
Wei Ting looked at the sleeping little brat and did not immediately throw him back to the bed. Instead, he said to Wei Liulang, “Sixth Brother, this is for you.”
Wei Liulang turned around. His forehead and palms were sweating, indicating that he was quite nervous. “I… I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold him.”
His hands were shaking.
Wei Ting shook the little brat in his arms. “Xiaohu, do you want Sixth Uncle to carry you?”
Xiaohu was stunned. “Huh? Yes.”
He didn’t even know what he had said.
Wei Liulang carried the little guy over.
Feeling the little life in his arm and hearing his even snoring, her anxious heart gradually calmed down.
After midnight, Li Wan cried. “I can’t feel his pulse…”
The few of them quickly rushed into the house.
Wei Qing’s entire body was cold and bloodless. His wrist was so thin that bones could be seen, and his skin was so pale that green veins could be seen.
Wei Ting injected internal strength into him.
However, he could no longer withstand any internal force.
Mei Ji burst into tears.
The a.s.sa.s.sin clenched his fists, his eyes red.
Wei Liulang hugged Xiaohu in his arms as tears fell.
Boom!
Something huge fell, making a huge collision on the ground. Even the ground seemed to tremble.
Had something happened to the little fat peac.o.c.k?
Wei Ting flashed out.
Smoke billowed from the kitchen.
He opened the door without a word.
Su Xiaoxiao coughed and walked out, b.u.mping into his arms. “You’re here?” Wei Ting carried her into the courtyard. “How are you?”
Su Xiaoxiao coughed a few times. “Cough, cough, cough… I’m fine. I used too much strength just now and accidentally knocked down the pill furnace.” Wei Ting hurriedly asked, “Did you burn yourself?”
“No.” Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and handed him a small box. “It’s refined.
There are a total of three pills. One a day. How’s Second Brother?”
Wei Ting’s throat hurt. “Not good. His pulse is sometimes absent.”
“I’ll go in and take a look!”
Su Xiaoxiao entered the room.
Wei Qing was unconscious and did not swallow on his own. In addition, his body was too weak to help him swallow like when Wei Xu was unconscious.
Su Xiaoxiao could only feed the medicine through the nose.
The moment the nasal feeding tube was inserted, Li Wan couldn’t help but cry.
Everyone watched with heartache.
Su Xiaoxiao calmly fed Wei Qing the first antidote..
