Chapter 23 My brother finally stood up.
He had been waiting for Zhou Ruo to appear all morning.
He hadn't seen her by noon, so he specially sent Wu Jia to Lanxiang Courtyard, but she still hadn't been seen.
Zhou Ruo's brief disappearance made Zhao Jinzhong begin to blame himself.
Only when he heard Zhou Ruo say that she would continue to treat him did his anxiety finally subside.
"I thought I was letting you down and that you wouldn't want to treat me anymore," Zhao Jinzhong said with a wry smile.
He used to be a brave and valiant young general. When did he become so cautious and hesitant?
"I won't refuse to treat my brother, I'm just looking for a better way."
Even little Zhou Ruo can comfort people now.
"A better way? Have you... found one?" Zhao Jinzhong was overjoyed.
"Yes! Found it!" Zhou Ruo nodded with a smile. "Brother, if you've finished eating, let's begin!"
Upon hearing Zhou Ruo's words, Zhao Jinzhong no longer cared about eating.
He immediately summoned Wu Jia and had him lead him to the bed to lie down.
After Zhao Jinzhong finished preparing, Zhou Ruo took out silver needles to disinfect them.
She focused her mind and used her spiritual power to inject the Yin energy of the Hundred-Year-Old Heavenly Toad into Zhao Jinzhong's body through silver needles.
The Heavenly Toad's energy was indeed formidable. After the silver needles were inserted into Zhao Jinzhong's acupoints, his entire body was immediately enveloped in a layer of dark blue gas.
The aura of the Heavenly Toad first drew away the chilling golden aura emanating from Zhao Jinzhong.
Zhou Ruo saw the dark blue energy merging with the platinum energy on his body.
Immediately afterwards, the remaining resentment on Zhao Jinzhong's body was slowly drawn out.
During this process, Zhao Jinzhong felt as if his leg bones were being whipped.
He felt a tremor and even a churning sensation in his bone marrow, and once again experienced excruciating pain.
He gritted his teeth and tried to keep quiet, beads of sweat forming on his forehead and neck.
His undershirt was soaked with sweat, but he didn't utter a sound.
Two quarters of an hour later, the aura of the celestial toad devoured all the resentment and finally dissipated into the air.
Zhou Ruo swallowed hard, watching Zhao Jinzhong gradually recover from his pain.
His expression gradually softened from ferocious to relaxed, and he felt his body becoming lighter.
My whole body felt like it was being enveloped in soft clouds, and my legs finally felt a warmth I hadn't experienced in a long time.
"Brother? Brother?" Zhou Ruo called out to Zhao Jinzhong, her heart filled with a mixture of nervousness and fear.
Zhao Jinzhong snapped out of his reverie at her voice, and heard her ask cautiously:
"Brother, how are you feeling? How does your leg... feel?"
Zhao Jinzhong tried to move his toes, and they moved very easily. He even discovered that in addition to his toes, his ankles seemed to have some sensation as well.
He held his breath and propped himself up to sit up.
Zhou Ruo pressed him further, "How's your brother?"
Zhao Jinzhong exerted his strength again, trying to move his ankles, which were initially a bit stiff.
After trying twice more, he felt as if his calf muscles were being pulled.
He looked at Zhou Ruo in disbelief, a look of surprise on his face.
"Wu Jia! Come in quickly!" he shouted to the door.
Wu Jia quickly went to Zhao Jinzhong's bedside.
"Come on, help me move my legs to the edge of the bed."
Wu Jia, not understanding why, did as instructed.
Zhao Jinzhong's legs dangled over the edge of the bed, his toes touching the ground.
He finally felt the cold touch of the ground a moment after his toes touched it.
This is something he hasn't experienced in the past two years; it's something he could only feel two years ago.
This feeling had faded from his memory and was beginning to become blurred.
Even though he wasn't familiar with it, he still knew clearly that he had finally regained feeling in his legs!
Zhou Ruo watched as Zhao Jinzhong's feet first touched the ground with his toes, and then his soles slowly pressed against the ground.
She stared intently, her heart pounding wildly.
"Wu Jia! Help me to my feet!" Zhao Jinzhong ordered again.
Wu Jia, who was standing to the side, was stunned. He was still in shock when Zhao Jinzhong called him.
After regaining his senses, General Zhao Jinzhong slowly helped him to his feet.
As Zhao Jinzhong carefully felt the contact between his feet and the ground, a tingling, numbing sensation traveled up his calves to his waist.
Supported by his armor, he tried several times with all his might, and finally managed to move his left leg forward a little bit.
"Great! Great! Brother's legs can move! Brother can walk!"
Zhou Ruo jumped and shouted happily, and the nannies and maids outside ran in upon hearing the noise.
They stood there, stunned, watching Zhao Jinzhong move his feet awkwardly, one step at a time.
It was Granny He who came to her senses first. With a trembling voice and an excited heart, she said to Qiuyue:
"Quickly! Go and inform the General and his wife!"
As everyone was first shocked, then began to cheer, and then embraced each other in tears of joy, Zhou Ruo's body also underwent changes.
She first felt her palms swell and become numb.
Then her body felt as if it were filled with a solid force, and she felt full of energy.
Suddenly, the voice in her mind finally rang out again: her spiritual power has recovered by more than 30%, and she can continue to live in this mortal world for another year.
After a moment of excitement, Zhou Ruo suddenly burst into tears.
She felt it was incredibly difficult for her to survive this month, and even as a little girl, she felt sorry for herself.
Then, the voice told her again:
[Currently available spiritual energy can utilize "Five Elements Spirit Needles"]
[Healing ants and livestock a thousand times can restore 10% of one's spiritual power.]
[Healing ordinary patients 500 times can restore 10% of one's spiritual power.]
The progress of spiritual energy recovery is related to the patient's merits accumulated in the world.
[Recover your spiritual power to full strength within one year, or you will be reduced to ashes, your spiritual consciousness will dissipate, and you will be doomed forever.]
Zhou Ruo wiped away her tears and asked softly:
"I understand that healing a thousand animals or five hundred ordinary people can restore ten percent of one's spiritual power."
"What does it mean that the progress of spiritual energy recovery is related to the patient's merit points?"
The voice in my head didn't respond.
Moreover, restoring even 10% of one's spiritual power requires healing animals a thousand times or ordinary people five hundred times. Isn't that too much?
Where did she find so many sick animals and people?
How are we supposed to survive this year? This is just bullying a child!
Zhou Ruo frowned and cried again.
When Zhao Yucheng and Ji Ping arrived, they saw Zhao Jinzhong standing on the ground comforting Zhou Ruo.
"Zhong'er!" Zhao Yucheng exclaimed excitedly.
Ji Ping was already overjoyed, tears streaming down her face. "Mother, are you dreaming?"
"Dad, Mom, I can really stand up! My legs can move!"
The couple held their son in their arms, and the three of them embraced tightly, feeling a long-lost happiness and peace.
Zhou Ruo, who had been ignored, also stopped crying. Seeing her brother and parents looking happy, she smiled too.
"Father, Mother, it was Ruoruo, it was Ruoruo who cured me."
Although Zhao Yucheng and Ji Ping knew a couple of days ago that Zhou Ruo had the ability to cure their son's legs, they never imagined it would be effective so quickly.
