Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law.

In the wing room of the former Prince Wei's Palace.

Chen Mo sat cross-legged on the ground, practicing the Divine Burning Technique.

boom!
A warm current several times stronger than the one when he broke through to the upper third level emerged from the void and poured into Chen Mo's body. Every cell in his body was boiling, greedily sucking in this warm current.

Chen Mo's pores opened up at this moment, and a white hot air emanated from the pores, helping to cool down his body.

After a while.

[God Burning Technique experience +1. ]

"Huh" Chen Mo let out a long sigh, turned around and glanced at the "cocoon" on the bed, and saw that Nalan Yiren was still motionless and continued to practice.

After practicing the Divine Burning Method several times in a row.

Chen Mo raised his eyebrows as he sensed a maid approaching the room.

The maid stopped in front of the door, knocked on it, and said, "Your Majesty, a eunuch named Jia wants to see you. He said he has something important to report."

"pass."

"promise."

Soon, Jia Yin came to the wing room and told Chen Mo about Yelang's situation.

Chen Mo frowned slightly, and then said: "Let's hand this matter over to the cabinet and let the cabinet discuss and deal with it."

Even though Xingyao and the others were involved, to Chen Mo, it was just a small matter and not worth mobilizing a large force. Perhaps sending a top-grade warrior over could resolve it.

"promise."

A day passed and Nalan Yiren still didn't wake up, but the red number on her forehead that was rising began to calm down, and would only increase a little every one or two hours.

Chen Mo sensed her breath and it also became stable.

He should be waking up soon.

But at this time, bad news came. The maid who took care of Si Song said that Si Song fell ill again. After coughing up blood several times in a row, he fainted.

Chen Mo took a look and saw an old man with a dry face, who was so thin that only skin and bones were left, lying quietly on the bed. Si Song was in a coma and could not be awakened no matter how much he was called.

The reason why Si Song asked Nalan Yiren to give up before was, firstly, he really didn't want to implicate Nalan Yiren, and secondly, although Nalan Yiren was forcibly keeping him alive, his physical condition made him unable to eat anything. He only drank half a bowl of meat porridge a day. In addition, he was plagued by illness, so every day he lived was torture for Si Song.

From Chen Mo's perception, there were still large areas of gray and black on Si Song's face.

Chen Mo can kill the enemies, but he is really helpless in curing diseases.

He could only call the imperial physician from the palace to treat him, and even called Yue Puzi over.

However, the imperial doctors and Yue Puzi were powerless to save Si Song's condition.

Yue Puzi even said: "It is a miracle that he is still alive today. Judging from his physical condition, he should have died three months ago."

Yue Puzi couldn't understand why Si Song was still alive.

"Then given his current condition, how long will it take?" Chen Mo asked in a deep voice.

The most experienced doctor named Zhou sighed and shook his head, saying, "Your Majesty, the Taoist priest is right. The old man's physical condition should have caused him to die three months ago. The fact that he is still alive now, apart from a miracle, can only be considered a last gasp of life, but it has taken a while."

"Just tell him how long he has left. Why waste so much time?" Chen Mo frowned and interrupted Doctor Zhou.

Doctor Zhou bowed and said in a low voice, "Anytime."

Chen Mo glanced at him, then looked at the other imperial doctors. When the imperial doctors met Chen Mo's gaze, they all lowered their heads.

Yue Puzi couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, give up. He is already dead and can't be saved."

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura burst out from Chen Mo's body, covering the entire room except for Si Song's position. The imperial doctors and Yue Puzi immediately felt a little breathless and very depressed.

"I didn't call you here to say such discouraging words." Chen Mo shouted coldly.

The imperial doctors and Yue Puzi knelt down one after another, shouting, "Your Majesty, please forgive me!", with cold sweat breaking out on their backs.

Chen Mo's tone softened a bit: "Of course, given his current condition, I won't make it difficult for you. You just need to find a way to keep him on the alert. If you can keep him on the alert for one hour, I will reward you with 100 taels of silver. If you can keep him on the alert for more than three hours, you will be promoted one level.

If you can't do this, then don't be a royal doctor in the palace. Take off your clothes and go home. There's no point in me keeping you around."

Chen Mo had to force them.

The imperial doctors suddenly felt a huge pressure and lowered their heads even more.

Under Chen Mo's gaze, the doctor Zhou finally raised his head slowly and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, I am willing to give it a try."

Doctor Zhou took out silver needles and began to give acupuncture, and soon he had pierced Si Song's entire body.

He wrote another prescription, and all the medicinal ingredients on it were strong medicines.

After forcing the powerful medicine into Si Song's body, Chen Mo could feel his weak breathing become slightly stronger.

"Your Majesty, my Taiyi acupuncture method, combined with the soul-restoring soup, can delay the death of an ordinary dying person by at least three hours. But for him, I can only guarantee half an hour." Doctor Zhou wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

"Then I'll give you a reward of 100 gold coins as well." Chen Mo looked at the other doctors and asked, "Does anyone else have a way to prolong his life?"

No doctor said a word.

Yue Puzi also shook his head.

"A bunch of trash."

Chen Mo snorted coldly, turned away and left the room.

After arriving at the room where Nalan Yiren was, Chen Mo looked at the still motionless "cocoon" and murmured, "Yiren, I can only do this much. After half an hour, if you still haven't woken up, I will break the cocoon and take your blood for the Great Elder to take. If it still doesn't work, I will force you to wake up."

At this moment, Chen Mo could see the red numbers on Nalan Yiren's forehead even through the cocoon.

4012.

This is already the second level of divine transformation.

Nalan Yiren succeeded in breaking through, but for some reason she hasn't woken up yet.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, Nalan Yiren still hadn't woken up.

Chen Mo felt that he couldn't really wait for half an hour, so he took action.

He broke open the cocoon on Nalan Yiren's right arm, used his innate spiritual energy to cut her wrist, and took half a bowl of blood the size of an adult's fist.

After bandaging the wound, Chen Mo came to Si Song, twisted his mouth open, and poured half a bowl of blood into it.

The imperial doctors and Yue Puzi who were still in the room were all stunned.

What is blood feeding treatment?
Whose blood is this?

They even wanted to say that this folk remedy was useless and had no basis.

But they didn't dare, for fear of offending Chen Mo, and even more afraid that if they spoke up, Chen Mo would force them to treat them, and then they would be finished.

But after Chen Mo finished drinking the blood, a miracle happened in less than half a minute.

Si Song, who was almost out of breath, suddenly breathed more heavily. Although it was still far from the breathing frequency of a normal person, he was able to hold on to his breath.

A quarter of an hour later, Si Song's heartbeat returned to normal.

The large gray and black aura that was faintly on his face also diminished a little.

The imperial doctors and Yue Puzi were astonished when they saw this.

This is no different from bringing a dead person back to life.

Was that divine blood that I just drank?
It was incredible. Yue Puzi opened his mouth, his face flushed with excitement, and he obviously wanted to ask Chen Mo what the blood was, but he didn't dare to speak.

It was not until he saw Chen Mo was about to leave that Yue Puzi finally couldn't help but ask.

But as soon as he uttered a word, Chen Mo interrupted him and said, "Take good care of him."

After saying that, he took the empty bowl and left the room. As for the blood, he certainly would not explain it.

When I returned to the room where Nalan Yiren was, she still hadn't woken up.

Chen Mo stroked the cocoon and said, "Yiren, hard work pays off. Your previous efforts have not been in vain. The Taotie Gu should have successfully transformed. Your blood has taken effect, but it may not be as good as you expected."

after one day.

Nalan Yiren still didn't wake up.

But when Si Song woke up, all his cultivation had vanished into nothingness and he became just an ordinary person. The wrinkles on his face were like the bark of a pine tree, showing his old age. After he got out of bed, his waist became hunched.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mo felt that the disease had been cured, but judging from Si Song's current condition, he was afraid that he would not live for many years.

It would be better to say that it extended my life by a few more years than to say that it was cured.

Si Song learned from Chen Mo that it was Nalan Yiren's blood that saved him, and that the fourth transformation of the Taogui Gu was real. After Nalan Yiren did not lie to him, Si Song's expression became extremely complicated.

After knowing that Nalan Yiren had not woken up yet, he hurried to the side room to see her.

"What you mean is that even you don't know what's going on with Yiren?" Hearing that Si Song didn't know what was going on with this cocoon, Chen Mo narrowed his eyes.

Si Song shook his head and said, "This situation did not occur in the first three transformations of the Taotie Gu, but we cannot guarantee that this was not caused by the Taotie Gu. After all, the situation of the Taotie Gu's fourth transformation was simply unheard of and unseen. There has never been a record of it in the history of the Poison King Valley."

"It seems that we can only ask her after she wakes up."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. There is a saying that goes 'a butterfly emerges from its cocoon', which represents a new life. It is the same for Yiren."

...

Since Si Song had woken up, Chen Mo brought Nalan Yiren into the palace.

He couldn't stay in the former Prince Wei's mansion forever.

The cabinet has already made a decision on supporting Yelang.

Led by Xiao Jing, an army of 3,000 soldiers went to reinforce Yelang, and Concubine Liang Xing Yao accompanied them to lead the way for the Wei army.

It was three days later that Nalan Yiren woke up.

Yue Ruyan told Chen Mo that after Si Song's matter was over, it would be impossible for Chen Mo to stay with Nalan Yiren for twelve hours a day.

Observatory, when I saw Nalan Yiren again.

Chen Mo was startled.

Nalan Yiren had just finished taking a bath and changed into a white palace dress. Her hair was draped over her shoulders, still wet, and her cheeks were slightly red.

The reason why Chen Mo was shocked was that before she "emerged from the cocoon", she donated blood to Si Song for a long time to prolong her life, which made her look haggard and her breath weak.

But now, her face is rosy, her breath is steady, and especially her skin, which is simply too good.

"Yiren, come on, let me see."

Chen Mo leaned forward to look carefully, then clicked his lips.

Before Nalan Yiren "became a cocoon", you could more or less see some sweat hairs on her body, but now, not even a single sweat hair can be seen, and her skin is completely smooth.

Before, the term "jade body" was more or less descriptive, but now, "jade body" refers to Nalan Yiren.

"Have you seen enough?"

Nalan Yiren's eyes are as clear as water and her voice is like flowing spring water.

Chen Mo's eyes widened: "Yiren, your voice?"

You know, Nalan Yiren had a unique smoky voice, but now, her smoky voice has changed and become like a queen's voice.

"Are you surprised? In fact, this is my real voice." Nalan Yiren chuckled.

Chen Mo had heard Nalan Yiren say before that the reason her voice became smoky was because she practiced poisonous skills and poisoned her throat.

Now it seems that the throat is healed.

"Did the Taotie Gu transform successfully?" Chen Mo asked.

Nalan Yiren raised her hand, and as an eight-colored light flickered slightly in her palm, an eight-winged red insect appeared in her palm.

Nalan Yiren showed it to Chen Mo, and saw that the extra purple stripe on the Taotie Gu's abdomen was the same dark color as the previous seven stripes.

"It seems that the transformation was successful." Chen Mo said with a smile.

At this time, the Taogui Gu returned to Chen Mo's ear and made a babbling sound.

"What is this?" Chen Mo looked at Nalan Yiren in confusion.

"It's thanking you for its successful fourth metamorphosis, which allowed Taogui Gu to awaken the inheritance hidden deep in its blood. It has undergone a total of seven metamorphosis in its lifetime."

"Seven times? Doesn't this mean it can transform three more times?"

"Not bad." Nalan Yiren pursed her pink lips and said with a smile: "Husband, let me show you something more surprising."

"What?" Chen Mo asked in surprise.

"Your Majesty, please condense the protective spiritual energy." Yue Ruyan added at this time.

Chen Mo concentrated and did as Yue Ruyan said.

"Bite." Nalan Yiren gave the order to Taogui Gu.

Chen Mo vaguely understood something, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still extremely shocked.

The Taotie Gu actually bit his protective spiritual energy into pieces.

"It seems that even the defense of the Heavenly Realm can't do anything to it." Yue Ruyan exclaimed, obviously she had tried it before.

"It's just that it lacks some means of attack. Otherwise, I guess you, my husband, would not be its match." Nalan Yiren said.

I’m afraid not.

Chen Mo was surprised, but he didn't say anything.

Since the Taotie Gu can break his defense with its powerful poison, if he is caught off guard and attacked by it, he might fall into its hands.

"I just don't know if King Kong's power can't block it," Chen Mo pondered in his heart.

"Okay, come back." Nalan Yiren called the Taotie Gu back into her body, and looked at Chen Mo with her beautiful eyes: "Husband, thank you for the matter of the Great Elder. Ruyan told me that if it weren't for you, when I woke up, the Great Elder would have been gone."

As she spoke, Nalan Yiren's voice began to choke up.

"Okay, it's all over, don't cry." Chen Mo hugged Nalan Yiren into his arms, patted her back gently, and then told her something about Si Song's situation.

"I'll go check it out later." Nalan Yiren would definitely go out of the palace to check on the Great Elder.

"By the way, where are the silk cocoons on your body?" Chen Mo suddenly thought of something. He didn't see them in the room when he came in just now.

"Let the bug eat it just now." Yue Ruyan took over the conversation.
