Chapter 168 Spare no Effort to Promote
Perhaps it was because of the uncontrollable anger that Zhao Guoan's originally normal expression, who was speaking, suddenly changed dramatically.
His face suddenly turned as pale as paper, as if all his vitality had been drained away, and he looked extremely weak.
Seeing this, Xiao Xizi, who had been waiting nearby, was startled. He quickly stepped forward, anxiously supporting Zhao Guoan and said, "Your Majesty, please sit down first. I will help you transfer spiritual energy right away!"
After saying that, he quickly stretched out his hands and continuously input the spiritual energy in his body into Zhao Guoan's body.
At the same time, Eunuch Xu beside him also quickly stood up, not daring to delay for a moment.
He quickly came to Zhao Guoan's side and together with Xiao Xizi, he transmitted spiritual energy to the emperor.
He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the reason I dared to bring Miss Wang back to the capital is not only because she saved the Crown Prince's life, but more importantly, because of her superb medical skills!"
Wang Xinyao, who was standing not far away, was so surprised when she saw this scene that she couldn't close her mouth.
She could never have imagined that the emperor, who was so majestic and powerful just now, would become so weak in the blink of an eye.
After a while, Zhao Guoan's face, which had been listless and pale as paper, finally regained some color due to the nourishment of the strands of spiritual energy, and his mental state also improved slightly compared to before.
However, he was filled with doubts and confusion. The girl in front of him looked so young, it was hard to imagine that she possessed so many unique skills.
Not only was she proficient in papermaking, but she was also a major grain producer. The grain produced by her family's fertile fields fed countless people.
She was not only an alchemist, but also made great contributions to the treatment of the plague. Unexpectedly, her medical attainments would be praised by Eunuch Xu.
Although Zhao Guoan had many doubts in his mind, he nodded slightly and agreed to Wang Xinyao's treatment.
He slowly said, "Then I'll trouble you, Miss Wang!"
Although there was a hint of politeness in his words, what was more was the unconcealable expectation and trust.
Hearing what Zhao Guoan said, Wang Xinyao did not dare to delay at all and quickly walked forward.
When she came closer, she stretched out her delicate hands and gently placed them on Zhao Guoan's strong wrists. Then she closed her eyes and began to take his pulse and diagnose him with full concentration.
For a moment, the whole room was silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Eunuch Xu and Xiao Xizi were transferring spiritual power while holding their breath, staring at Wang Xinyao and Zhao Guoan without blinking, afraid of missing any subtle movements or changes in expression.
As time passed, the atmosphere around them gradually became solemn and depressing.
Everyone's heart was in their throat, not knowing what would happen next.
Especially Zhao Guoan himself, he was extremely nervous, and a layer of fine beads of sweat had unknowingly seeped out of his forehead.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but suddenly, Wang Xinyao, who had been concentrating on taking the patient’s pulse, frowned tightly.
After this meticulous diagnosis and investigation, Wang Xinyao discovered that Zhao Guoan's illness was not simply caused by excessive fatigue, but was actually caused by an extremely rare poison curse!
This is also a forbidden technique. Although its viciousness is not as serious as Zhao Meir's, it is extremely harmful to people's vitality.
If she had not accidentally obtained a book on forbidden techniques in the ring space before, she would probably be unable to completely cure the disease with the ordinary medical knowledge and skills she had mastered before!
Wang Xinyao gently placed Zhao Guoan's hand on hers, and then quickly took out the silver needle bag she was carrying with her.
Then, she took a deep breath and began to use the Nine-Nine Return to One Acupuncture Method to treat Zhao Guoan with full concentration.
As the slender silver needles accurately penetrated into the key acupuncture points, time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Apart from the slight breathing sounds in the entire room, the only sound left was the almost imperceptible sound of the silver needles touching the skin.
When the last silver needle finally penetrated the corresponding acupuncture point steadily, Wang Xinyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She paused for a moment and carefully observed the expression on Zhao Guoan's face and his body's reaction.
After a long while, Wang Xinyao decisively reached out and pulled out all the silver needles one by one.
Just as she completed this action, Zhao Guoan, who originally looked extremely weak and painful, suddenly felt a sense of relief all over her body.
That feeling of heaviness and discomfort disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye!
At this moment, he felt as if he had regained vitality and energy, and his whole body became light and agile.
Wang Xinyao looked solemn, and her beautiful face was shrouded in seriousness at the moment.
She spoke slowly, "Your Majesty, this curse is called the 'Erosion Curse,' an extremely vicious and cruel curse. The person who poisoned you used such despicable means, clearly planning this for a long time. This curse is silently eroding your vitality day by day, weakening your body day by day."
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked and looked at each other, their faces full of fear and worry.
Although Zhao Guoan was already very weak, he still forced himself to cheer up and asked with a slightly trembling voice, "So, is there any way to break this curse?"
Wang Xinyao frowned slightly, lowered her head and thought for a moment before looking up.
With a determined gaze, he said, "Your Majesty, although this curse is difficult to break, it is not impossible. To remove this 'Erosion Curse', you must gather three precious items."
"Which three?" Zhao Guoan asked.
"Thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, Tianshan snow lotus and the blood of monsters. Only by using these three as medicine at the same time, and supplemented by my unique acupuncture method, can this poison curse be dispelled. But..." At this point, Wang Xinyao paused slightly.
Then he continued, "However, this detoxification method requires at least a month of treatment. There must not be any interruption during this period, otherwise all the previous efforts will be wasted."
When Eunuch Xu and Xiao Xizi heard this, they couldn't help but gasp.
The thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and Tianshan Snow Lotus are both rare treasures in the world, and the blood of the monster is even more hard to come by.
Even in this huge palace, it would probably be difficult to gather all these precious medicinal materials.
