Chapter 208 Mu Yao wakes up
After Yu Heng left, Gongsun Li asked Xiao Douxue, "Master Xiao, how did the master induce the Gu just now?"
Xiao Douxue replied, "Senior, Master Yu Heng used incense sticks to control the poisonous insect, led it to the white wrist and picked it out with a needle."
"Oh?" Gongsun Li touched his chin when he heard that.
"That incense stick is the key," he added thoughtfully.
Xiao Douxue nodded slightly: "I have identified seven kinds of fragrance."
"More than that." Shi Jingchan said quietly.
It is impossible to lure out the poisonous insect by simply combining these seven scents.
Xiao Douxue nodded in agreement: "Master Yu Heng's technique is very delicate. During the process of drawing the Gu, the insect would sink deeper into the skin every time it struggled, but the master was able to block its path and control it firmly every time. At that time, I felt a slight warm current slowly emanating from his body. And the moment the insect was taken out, there was no trace left on the skin, not even a pinhole, which is incredible."
"Your feeling is correct. There is indeed a warm current oozing out of Master Yu Heng's body." Shen Chutang confirmed. He was puzzled that the warm current did not come from internal force.
Wei Wushang and Helian Yun both agreed with Shen Chutang's idea.
The mysterious art is far more than just exorcising evil spirits. Things like geomancy, numerology, and drawing talismans and setting up battle arrays all fall within its scope.
In Yunqi, few people know this technique, let alone master it.
Ye Yujiang—the Gu King of the time—was easily cracked by Yu Heng, so one can imagine how profound his attainments in the mysterious arts were.
When facing a strong person, no matter who you are, you will feel awe, especially in those unknown and mysterious areas.
"Why hasn't Sister Mu woken up yet?" Li Yan observed Mu Yao carefully, but there was still no sign of waking up.
Xiao Douxue walked closer and took a look, then sat down beside the bed and said, "It's still a little short of a cup of tea, wait a little longer."
Mu Yao's lips had regained their redness, and her overall complexion was improving.
Master Yu Heng was very skilled in the art of inducing Gu, and it was obvious that he had practiced it countless times. He believed what the master said.
It turns out that Master Yu Heng was being modest. He said that Mu Yao would wake up in half a cup of tea at the fastest. The incense and candle had just burned to half a cup of tea when she woke up. The time was just right, not a second off.
"Yaoyao, how do you feel now?"
Helian Yun couldn't wait to help the man up, which shocked Xiao Douxue.
Can you easily help someone up now? You have no common sense at all!
Mu Yao closed her beautiful eyes, her face showing sorrow. She felt as if a powerful force had plucked her out of the chaos. The comfort she felt all over her body suddenly disappeared, and was followed by a strong feeling of nausea. Her throat was burning, but she couldn't open her eyes, and she was powerless to raise her hand to signal.
It was as if a golden crow was hidden in her body, scorching her tired body. But strangely, not a drop of sweat oozed from her body, and her face did not turn an abnormal red.
Vomit... Want to vomit...
Mu Yao struggled desperately, but no words came out of her throat.
A strong wind blew by, and when everyone came to their senses, there was a brazier in front of the bed.
"Yaoyao wants to vomit." When Wei Wushang was fleeing with Mu Yao before, he had seen her uncomfortable expression of wanting to vomit but unable to.
There was a "crash" sound.
Mu Yao really vomited, but all she vomited was black blood.
Xiao Douxue's pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly grabbed her wrist. After a few dozen breaths, his expression gradually relaxed.
"My lady, you're fine." He rubbed his clothes with his hands to wipe away the cold sweat oozing from his palms, then stood up and poured a glass of cold water for Mu Yao to drink.
Faintly, Mu Yao smelled a unique scent of agarwood. She closed her eyes, suddenly tugged at the sleeve of the man beside her and asked weakly, "Ayun, is that you?"
Helian Yun's breathing stagnated, and he trembled slightly while holding Mu Yao. He couldn't help but choked up and said, "It's me. I'm here to take you home."
It’s really Helian Yun who is here.
Her eyelids felt extremely heavy, and Mu Yao tried hard to open them to escape the chaos.
A ray of light shines in, and the world suddenly becomes bright.
This moment seemed to have been waited for a long time.
She turned her head and saw a familiar face right in front of her.
"Don't cry." Mu Yao took a deep breath and hugged Helian Yun's neck with trembling arms.
Wherever she looked, she could see the figures of her three husbands as well as Gongsun Li, Shi Jingchan and Ali.
"It's good that you're okay." Gongsun Li observed Mu Yao's complexion and smiled with relief. The huge stone in his heart finally fell.
Everyone in the room let out a breath, and all the gloom that had accumulated over the past few days disappeared.
The few of them seemed to have endless things to say. Mu Yao listened quietly and knew everything that happened after she fell into a coma.
"Where is Master Yu Heng? I want to meet him." Mu Yao suddenly asked.
A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring, let alone the kindness of saving one's life.
