People in the Qin Dynasty sought good fortune and avoided misfortune.

Chapter 53, Saving the Six-Fingered Black Knight

Xu Qing stopped in her tracks, a hint of hesitation in her mind.

Without exception, all the spells of the Yin-Yang School are powerful techniques, and they are effective against the Mohist School. Injuries caused by ordinary spells can be treated with medicine and healing.

If it is a forbidden technique such as the Sleep-Sealing Curse or the Six Souls Terror Curse, either the caster must break it himself or he must rely on powerful internal energy to neutralize it; it is definitely not something that can be cured by medicine.

Moreover, Xinghun's dying counterattack involved a Gu curse, and anything with Gu poison is generally more dangerous, vicious, and difficult to neutralize.

Han Shen noticed Xu Qing's hesitation, but he could understand it. The injuries caused by the Yin-Yang School's curses were indeed very difficult to treat and could not be cured by ordinary doctors.

"Imperial Physician, I know the Grand Prince's injuries are quite serious, but please take a look first," Han Shen said, bowing.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Qing nodded. Since he was already here, there was no harm in going to take a look.

“I can go and take a look, but I can’t guarantee I can cure it. The Yin-Yang School’s curses are too vicious to be cured by medicine,” Xu Qing said.

"Don't worry, if the Grand Master's injuries are truly beyond cure, it's not your fault."

After Han Shen finished speaking, he led Xu Qing toward the interior of the village. After walking a few steps, the two arrived at the outside of a farmhouse.

"Your Excellency, the Imperial Physician has arrived," Han Shen said to the person inside the door.

The door opened, and a disciple of the Mohist school appeared at the door, supporting the Six-Fingered Black Knight.

“Your Excellency, this is the divine physician, Physician Xu, the Imperial Physician of the State of Han.”

"Imperial Physician, this is our Mo family's Grand Master, the Six-Fingered Black Knight."

Han Shen introduced the two to each other, and Xu Qing and Six-Fingered Black Knight bowed to each other.

"Thank you for visiting so late at night, Imperial Physician. Please come inside and we can talk in detail."

Six-Fingered Black Knight's face was deathly pale, and he spoke weakly, clearly indicating that his injuries had reached an extremely serious level.

Xu Qing nodded and followed the three of them into the house to sit down.

After sitting down, Xu Qing took out a pulse-taking pad from the medicine box, and Six-Fingered Black Knight placed his hand on the pad in cooperation.

Xu Qing began to take the pulse of the Six-Fingered Black Knight, his brows furrowing as he felt the pulse.

Han Shen and the Mo family disciple beside him saw Xu Qing's furrowed brows and their hearts jumped into their throats. They were not afraid of a doctor's smiling face, but they were afraid of a doctor's furrowed brows.

Six-Fingered Black Knight calmly observed Xu Qing. He understood his own injuries, and even if Xu Qing couldn't cure him, he wasn't without a solution. It was just extremely risky and would come at a great cost.

Feeling the pulse, Xu Qing's expression was extremely solemn. This was the first time he had ever seen such a complex and serious injury.

The Six-Fingered Black Knight's pulse was chaotic and his vitality was weak, as if something was eroding his life force. It was undoubtedly the Gu poison from the Gu curse.

At the same time, an unknown internal force was disrupting the meridians and aggravating the opponent's internal injuries, which left Xu Qing somewhat at a loss.

Half an hour later, Xu Qing withdrew his hand.

"Imperial Physician, how is the Grand Prince? Is there any way to save him?" Han Shen asked anxiously.

"The situation with the tycoon is very complicated. Could you let me see where he is injured?" Xu Qing said in a deep voice.

"can."

Six-Fingered Black Knight unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a muscular physique with a clear palm print on his abdomen.

Two black lines spread out from the palm print, like climbing vines, heading towards the heart.

This was the first time Han Shen had seen the Six-Fingered Black Knight's injuries. Seeing this bizarre scene, he was both surprised and even more nervous.

Xu Qing carefully examined the Six-Fingered Black Knight's injuries, his expression extremely solemn. He was certain that these injuries were beyond his ability to heal.

He didn't even know the name of the curse, let alone how to treat it.

“Master, please forgive my bluntness. I’m afraid I can’t help you with your injuries. Something inside you is constantly eroding your life force, and at the same time, there’s a surge of internal energy that’s worsening your injuries.”

"The former should be some kind of special Gu poison, while the latter is caused by the Yin-Yang School's curse. To heal your injuries, we need to expel the Gu poison from your body and dispel this curse mark."

"The latter is easy to deal with; it can be gradually neutralized with strong internal energy. As for the former, I have never seen such a Gu poison before, so I am powerless to help it."

Xu Qing shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't want to save them, but he was powerless to do so. Unless the Six-Fingered Black Knight could figure out what this poison was, he might be able to find clues in medical books.

Upon hearing Xu Qing's words, Han Shen immediately became anxious.

"Imperial Physician, I beg you, you must save the Grand Prince. You must have a way." Han Shen was so anxious that he almost knelt down before Xu Qing.

"It's not that I don't want to save him, but that I'm powerless to do so." Hearing Xu Qing's words, Han Shen and the Mo family disciples beside him felt a chill in their hearts and looked at Six-Fingered Black Knight with disappointed expressions.

Six-Fingered Black Knight's expression remained unchanged, but he couldn't help feeling disappointed. Although he was very familiar with his physical condition, Xu Qing's decision that there was no way to reverse it left him feeling utterly disappointed.

Seeing the three looking dejected, Xu Qing hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Although there is no cure, I have a way that may help alleviate the Grand Master's injuries and buy him more time to find a way to cure the Gu poison."

Xu Qing's words surprised and delighted Han Shen.

"Imperial Physician, is this true? Do you really have a way to alleviate the Grand Prince's injuries?" Han Shen asked in surprise.

A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Six-Fingered Black Knight. Although Xu Qing said that it could not be cured completely, as long as the injury was alleviated and time was bought, there was still hope.

"I do have a solution, but whether it will succeed in the end remains to be seen," Xu Qing said in a deep voice.

In the past two weeks, he has mastered the second level of the Evergreen Skill, and all the internal energy in his body has been transformed into vibrant green internal energy.

By channeling internal energy to dissolve the curse seal and prolong life, and combined with his acupuncture techniques to seal acupoints and limit the onset of the poison, it is theoretically possible to alleviate the Six-Fingered Black Knight's injuries.

“Since there is hope, the Imperial Physician can use all his methods,” said Six-Fingered Black Knight.

"I will infuse the Grand Master with internal energy later," Xu Qing explained his method, emphasizing at the end.

"This is my first time treating someone like this, so I absolutely cannot let anyone disturb me, so as not to get distracted."

"Han Shen, wait a moment. You take some men and keep watch outside the room. Don't let anyone disturb the Imperial Physician," Six-Fingered Black Knight ordered.

"promise."

After bowing respectfully to Xu Qing, Han Shen led the Mo family disciples away, leaving only Xu Qing and the Six-Fingered Black Knight behind.

Seeing the door close, Six-Fingered Black Knight looked at Xu Qing with sharp eyes and an extremely solemn expression.

"Imperial Physician, tell me, how confident are you in relieving my injuries?" Six-Fingered Black Knight asked.

"Sixty percent, because this is the first time I've used this method to save someone, so I don't know the success rate."

Xu Qing met the gaze of the Six-Fingered Black Knight without fear. Although he was greedy and lustful, he still had basic medical ethics and would not treat people indiscriminately for money or opportunities.

"Sixty percent? Then let's go." Six-Fingered Black Knight's expression was solemn, as if he had made a decision.

His health was already very poor, and Chu Nan Gong of the Yin Yang School had already arrived in Xinzheng.

If his injuries are truly beyond repair, with Xu Qing's help to alleviate them, and with a determination to die, coupled with some of the Mohist methods, he is confident that he can capture Chu Nan Gong.

Six-Fingered Black Knight believed that exchanging his own life for Chu Nan Gong, a guest elder of the Yin-Yang School, was entirely worthwhile.

"it is good."

Six-Fingered Black Knight sat cross-legged on the bed, with Xu Qing sitting behind him. He circulated the Evergreen Skill within his body, and the vibrant green internal energy flowed around Xu Qing.

"Hold your mind and spirit still, and open your meridians."

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, his hands moved like afterimages as he pressed the acupoints on the back of the Six-Fingered Black Knight. He placed his hands on the back of the Knight, and the emerald green internal energy mixed with the various medicinal powers remaining in Xu Qing's body surged wildly into the Knight's meridians.

A powerful surge of internal energy suddenly rushed into his body, causing Six-Fingered Black Knight to furrow his brow and twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Feeling the vibrant internal energy within his body, Six-Fingered Black Knight was extremely shocked.

He had encountered many medical or Taoist masters before. Although their internal energy was also full of vitality and their level of cultivation was far higher than Xu Qing's, none of them had internal energy as full of vitality as Xu Qing's.

Feeling the vibrant internal energy within his body, Six-Fingered Black Knight completely relaxed, allowing Xu Qing's internal energy to circulate within him. His originally pale face gradually regained some vitality.

A surge of vital energy began to coursing through the Six-Fingered Black Knight's body, flowing along his meridians toward the location of the cursed seal.

The black Gu worms that had been entrenched in the Six-Fingered Black Knight's meridians were instantly awakened upon sensing the powerful life force. Their eyes flashed red as they rushed towards Xu Qing's internal energy.

Upon sensing the presence of the Gu worms, Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, and he increased the amount of internal energy he poured into his body.

The Gu worms and internal energy clashed, neither side willing to yield. The Gu worms frantically devoured the internal energy, while the internal energy, under Xu Qing's control, surrounded and confined the Gu worms near the Daheng acupoint.

Upon realizing that the Gu worms were temporarily immersed in vitality, Xu Qing's eyes flashed with a sharp light. His hands moved like afterimages as he drew more than a dozen silver needles from his waist and quickly inserted them into various acupoints.
