Chapter 497: The Medicinal Bath Is Over
Although the medicine that Mo Zhu had prescribed for Lu Zheng was extremely effective, it was also very risky.
Since ancient times, the better the medicine, the greater the side effects. The herbs that Lu Zheng was using in the medicinal bath now were the only ‘fight poison with poison’ method that Mo Zhu had come up with using the knowledge from the ancient books that did not have side effects.
However, the spirit herbs were domineering. If Lu Zheng could not endure the three hours of the medicinal bath, even an immortal would not be able to save him!
When Lu Zheng heard this, he knew that Mo Zhu was doing this for his own good. He forced himself to focus and continue fighting. He decided to conserve his energy and did not say another word.
An hour finally passed. When Mo Zhu saw that it was time, the pain in Lu Zheng’s body suddenly lessened. He suddenly felt refreshed and much lighter.
After trying to move his limbs in the bathtub, Lu Zheng clearly felt the originally weak meridians in his body ease up. For the first time in many years, his body had some strength.
Furthermore, he was acutely aware that there was a warm current flowing from one of his blood vessels to every part of his body. Even his hands and feet, which had been cold for a long time, felt warm.
Seeing that Lu Zheng had already noticed the subtle changes in his body, Mo Zhu put away her phone and held the acupuncture bag in her hand. She raised her hand and gently knocked on the wall of the bucket. She instructed coldly, “The medicinal bath is done. You can wash up simply now. After five minutes, put on your clothes and look for me outside the bathroom. I’ll prepare the treatment equipment for you in advance. You will be undergoing acupuncture treatment later!”
Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Lu Zheng nodded. A gentle smile appeared on his pale face. “Alright, thank you, Ms. Mo!”
Just as she finished speaking, Mo Zhu opened the bathroom door without looking back and went straight to the outer room to disinfect the many silver needles in the acupuncture bag.
After the girl left, Lu Zheng propped his body up and climbed out of the bathtub. He took off his clothes and simply turned the tap. After rinsing the thick smell of medicine on his body, he changed into a new set of pajamas and walked out of the bathroom.
At this moment, Mo Zhu was sitting on the bed in Lu Zheng’s bedroom. In order to facilitate the acupuncture treatment for Lu Zheng, she had placed the acupuncture bag on the bedside table.
Seeing that Lu Zheng had already finished showering and walked out of the bathroom, Mo Zhu raised her hand indifferently and patted the bed sheets in front of her. “Come and lie down. Acupuncture treatment will take a lot of time. Let’s hurry up and finish it!”
He obediently listened to Mo Zhu’s instructions and came to the bed. Lu Zheng neatly took off his shirt and laid on the bed.
Mo Zhu touched Lu Zheng’s body seriously and briefly confirmed the various acupuncture points on the man’s body. She skillfully took the silver needles and started inserting them neatly.
Almost at the same time as Mo Zhu inserted the first needle, Lu Zheng felt the warm current produced by the medicinal bath in his body being guided by the girl’s hand. It followed every acupuncture point that Mo Zhu inserted and began to flow through his body. Furthermore, this warm current was getting hotter and hotter, and even his internal organs were nourished.
Previously, he had also received acupuncture treatment at a famous old Chinese medicine clinic in Beijing. However, he had to admit that he did not know what kind of ultimate technique this girl, Mo Zhu, had practiced. The silver needles in her hand were just a little different from other doctors. Not only was it reflected in her skilled technique, but it was also reflected in the effect of the medicine. The impression Lu Zheng had of Mo Zhu was that she was really professional in terms of medical skills.
Although she did not bring the Seven Star Acupuncture Needles with her when she performed the acupuncture on Lu Zheng this time, Mo Zhu used the internal energy in her body to guide the silver needles as she performed the Seven Star Acupuncture Technique. During the acupuncture process, she was extremely focused on every needle. After only ten minutes, Mo Zhu was already sweating lightly.
Lu Zheng lay quietly on the bed. Seeing how serious Mo Zhu was, he did not dare to take the initiative to speak in case he would disturb the girl.
