Chapter 258: Old Slave Pays His Respects to the Master
ck. They stared at each other with wide eyes, forgetting to pull away."My dear granddaughter, would you believe me if I said this was an accident"Elder Mu's words brought the two of them back to their...Zhu Qingqi spoke first: "Boy, you don't need to look. The root of the illness that I got while researching Qixingcao two years ago."
Chen Pingan was slightly startled. Seven Star Grass
He knows this thing, it's a famous double-edged sword among medicinal herbs. For those in need, it's definitely a holy medicine, but for ordinary people without any ailments, it's absolutely poison, and a highly potent one.
When he felt Zhu Qingqi's pulse just now, he already discovered that the toxin of Qixingcao in his body was extremely serious. If it wasn't for his powerful internal energy suppressing it all along, I'm afraid he would have been gone long ago.
Chen Ping'an didn't say much. He directly took out the golden needles from the Burial Dragon Ring and began to prick them on Zhu Qingqi's body.
"What are you doing" exclaimed Zhu Xiaoyue.
While Zhu Qingqi was known as the Medicine King, in reality, he only practiced a simplified version of the Nine Dragons Medical Canon. Even after being poisoned by the Seven Stars Grass and having some knowledge about it, he was ultimately unable to counteract the toxins within his body due to the limitations of the medical canon.
Chen Ping'an was markedly different. He was the true inheritor of the Jiulong Medical Canon, and he was incredibly knowledgeable about various acupuncture techniques. Zhu Qingqi couldn't heal himself, but with Chen Ping'an around, all of this wasn't a problem.
Gold needles were inserted into Zhu Qingqi's several acupoints, causing him to tremble all over.
Zhu Xiaoyue was just about to scold, but she suddenly heard Zhu Qingqi exclaim, "Nine Dragons Medical Canon You actually have the complete Nine Dragons Medical Canon"
"Little Moon, quickly, quickly show me, is every needle he took out golden, and does each one have a clear visible serial number"
Zhu Xiaoyue swallowed the words that came to her lips and hurriedly went behind Zhu Qingqi to check. As expected, the result was as Zhu Qingqi had said.
"Grandpa, how...how did you know he really used gold needles, and that each needle had a clear serial number on it" Zhu Xiaoyue exclaimed again.
"Yes, indeed, you are the heir of the Zhuanglong Ring, and you have gathered at least five gold needles. Old slave Yaowang Zhu Qingqi greets his master." Zhu Qingqi's face was full of excitement, and he even wanted to get up and bow to Chen Ping'an.
As the Medicine King, inheriting the simplified version of the Nine Dragons Medical Scripture passed down through generations, and being the heir to the Dragon-Burial Seal lineage is naturally a must. Of course, this prerequisite requires the Dragon-Burial Seal heir to have collected the fifth golden needle. Only then can they gain the loyalty of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Needless to say, just in terms of medical skills, Zhu Qingqi had already completely convinced him. Even he, the Medicine King, was helpless against the toxin, and it was actually cured. This was definitely beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.
Only those who have inherited the mantle of the Zànglóngjuì (Dragon Burial Ring) from the Jiǔlóngyīdiǎn (Nine Dragons Medical Canon) possess such skill.
Zhu Qingqi dedicated his life to medicine, and with his simplified version of the Nine Dragons Medical Canon, he saved countless lives. Facing the heir of the Burial Dragon戒, the true inheritor of the Nine Dragons Medical Canon, how could he not bow down in submission Moreover, Chen Ping'an is still treating him now, saving his life.
"Alright, let's skip the formalities. I don't like them. You are the Medicine King and one of my Four Heavenly Kings. There's no way I would stand idly by and watch you die." Chen Pingan said, his movements becoming even faster. The golden needles in his hand vibrated subtly under the influence of his internal energy.
This is exactly the Dragon and Phoenix Eight Needles described in the Kowloon Medical Classic. It is said that this set of acupuncture techniques has been lost for countless years, and it should have used eight fine silver needles to exert its full effect. However, after Chen Ping'an became familiar with the Kowloon Medical Classic, he managed to use five golden needles to activate the Dragon and Phoenix Eight Needles. The golden needles trembled continuously on Zhu Qingqi's body, and black blood kept oozing from the tops of the needles.
That was the stubborn toxin from Qixingcao. If not for Chen Ping'an's robust inner strength and intimate familiarity with the Nine Dragons Medical Scripture, an ordinary person wouldn't be able to activate it using five golden needles at all.
This is definitely an adventure.
However, all the dangers were neutralized by Chen Ping'an's profound inner strength and familiarity with the Nine Dragons Medical Canon. Instead, they brought into full effect the true power of the Heavenly Dragon Eight Needles.
Traditional Chinese medicine, profound and vast, is truly capable of bringing the dead back to life, or even restoring flesh to bone. The scene before us is the most effective proof of this.
With each twitch of the golden needle, the poison from the Qixingcao was steadily expelled, and Zhu Qingqi's complexion gradually improved.
It was at that moment that a series of noises suddenly came from the back door. Immediately after, a man in his fifties, accompanied by a group of unfamiliar figures, appeared.
This stranger was also relative. Chen Ping'an could see clearly; one of them was Lu Laosan, the real culprit who framed him and caused him to still be unable to find his mother and sister all these years.e already very obvious, warning his wife Xiao Meiqin not to stop him from treating the old man. After Jiang Shunli warned Chen Ping once, he turned around and let his wife and son go out with him."Hon...
