Chapter 100 Amazing
100 Amazing
Gu Yanfei acted as if she did not hear him and walked to the window facing the street with her compa.s.s in her hand. She looked up at the sun outside the window and pointed to the s.p.a.ce at the side of the window. “Move him here.”
The attendant didn’t move, but Xiao Shi did.
Xiao Shi was as thin as a bamboo pole, but he was surprisingly strong. He lifted Imperial Duke Wei and his chair and easily carried them to the window. He then moved an inch to the side according to Gu Yanfei’s instructions.
Sunlight shone through the window and onto Imperial Duke Wei’s head and clothes.
!!
Everyone did not know what she was going to do and subconsciously held their breaths.
“The trigram Li is in the third area.” Gu Yanfei put the palm-sized compa.s.s back into her sleeve. “Three needles will do.”
As she spoke, she took out a needle from the old doctor’s bag. It was a full three inches long and hummed crisply when it trembled.
“It won’t work,” the old doctor couldn’t help but remind her. “I’ve tried to stop the bleeding with a needle, but it’s useless.”
“This divination is a blessing.” Gu Yanfei gently twisted the silver needle. “This first needle seals the three souls and seven spirits.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she had already pierced the long silver needle into the Baihui acupuncture point on Imperial Duke Wei’s head, leaving only an inch above his head. The silver needle shone dazzlingly in the sunlight, as if specks of light were being directed into the end of the needle.
The needle made the attendant gasp.
Imperial Duke Wei’s body stiffened at first, and his expression changed drastically. Then, he leaned forward and spat out another mouthful of blood.
This time, he spat out a pool of thick black blood.
Murong Yong, the old doctor, and the others were shocked.
How was this stopping the bleeding? It did not look like saving someone. Instead, this “treatment” made the patient’s condition even more severe!
“My Lord!”
The attendant shouted in alarm, but Gu Yanfei picked up a second silver needle and stabbed Imperial Duke Wei’s major acupuncture point…
Then a third needle stabbed him an inch below his navel.
“Ugh—” Imperial Duke Wei twitched violently and spat out two more mouthfuls of black blood.
In addition to the thick smell of blood, there was an indescribable stench in the air.
“Madam, the imperial duke is inside!” A servant’s panting voice sounded outside the private room.
In the next moment, a beautiful woman who looked 47 or 48 years old rushed in. She had long eyebrows, a straight figure, and a heroic aura, as if she could raise her gun and go to the battlefield at any moment.
As soon as Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei entered, she saw Imperial Duke Wei vomiting black blood. At this moment, Gu Yanfei let go of the third silver needle.
The three silver needles on Imperial Duke Wei’s head, heart, and abdomen trembled slightly, emitting a faint buzzing sound.
“What are you doing?!” Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei scolded Gu Yanfei sternly. Her eyes couldn’t help but split open, and a burning anger rushed from her heart to her head.
At this moment, she could not see anything else but her husband.
She rushed towards Gu Yanfei like a gust of wind, her hand as fast as lightning as she grabbed Gu Yanfei’s right arm. Her gaze was like a knife that cut into Gu Yanfei’s face.
Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei was very fast, but Gu Yanfei was even faster.
Somehow, with a twist and turn, the little girl slid past her opponent like a carp in water, easily dodging the claw.
Without thinking, Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei pulled the sword out of the maidservant’s hand…
A cold light flashed.
The inch-and-two-centimeter-wide blade was drawn two inches from its sheath when a slender, bony hand pressed down on it. With a gentle push, the sword was sheathed again.
“Auntie, calm down,” Chu Yi advised gently, like a spring breeze blowing across a frozen river in March.
Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei met Chu Yi’s handsome face. Her eyes widened slightly as she also recognized the Eldest Prince, who had just returned to the capital.
She was still gripping the hilt of her sword tightly, not letting go, her eyes flickering.
“Ugh…” Imperial Duke Wei suddenly twitched and spat out another mouthful of black blood.
Clang!
There was a small fragment in the pool of black blood on the floor.
Imperial Duke Wei lowered his head, not moving at all as if he was exhausted.
“Ah Shen!” Ignoring her sword and Chu Yi, Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei rushed towards Imperial Duke Wei with one hand on his arm and the other gently stroking his back, her eyes red.
He never cried out in pain, not even when he sc.r.a.ped his bones to treat the poison.
However, even if he didn’t say it, she knew that when he was in pain, the scar on his forehead would bulge and turn blood red.
“You must be in a lot of pain?!” Imperial d.u.c.h.ess Wei said with a trembling voice, her heart aching.
