"Li Lu, listen to Miss and give her your hand," Doctor Yu said to Li Lu, drawing on her own experience that evening.

"Huh?" Li Lu was still incredulous. He hesitated as he reached out his hand to Zhou Ruo.

Zhou Ru chuckled twice, then raised the silver needle and inserted it.

The silver needle was so thin and soft that Li Lu didn't feel anything when it was first inserted.

"The other side too."

Li Lu stared blankly at the silver needles in his hand and then stretched out his other hand as well.

After the two needles were inserted, Zhou Ruo watched as Doctor Li's fatigue gradually disappeared as his blood and qi flowed smoothly.

Dr. Li felt two streams of energy suddenly gather on the back of his hand, which first slowly flowed into his body.

After reaching my heart, it suddenly rushed to my forehead.

He coughed a few times and spat out a mouthful of dark phlegm, then felt refreshed and comfortable all over.

The previous fatigue and chest tightness completely disappeared.

Doctor Yu kept a close eye on the changes in Li Lu's expression.

Seeing that his complexion had become rosy, Doctor Yu took out the silver needle from Li Lu's hand and saw that it had turned black.

"Black...black? The needle is poisoned!" Li Lu was still in shock.

"It's not that the needle is poisoned, it's that you've been poisoned!" Doctor Yu corrected him.

Zhao Jinzhong, who was watching all this from the sidelines, frowned and said to Zhao Yucheng:

"Father, both Doctor Yu and Doctor Li have been poisoned. Could it be that all the doctors in the military camp have been poisoned?"

Zhao Yucheng nodded, finding his son's guess somewhat reasonable. "Dr. Yu, summon all the doctors from the military camp here!"

Half an hour later, apart from Doctor Yu and Doctor Li, all eight doctors gathered in front of Zhao Yucheng.

"Ruo'er, take a look. Have these doctors been poisoned?" Zhao Yucheng said to Zhou Ruo.

When the doctors heard the general say that they had been poisoned, they were all puzzled and began to whisper among themselves.

Zhou Ruo walked up to the doctors and examined them one by one.

Doctor Yu followed behind her, examining her carefully, hoping to take the opportunity to learn some of the divine doctor's medical skills.

As Zhou Ruocai approached the first doctor, she heard someone exclaim from a few people away.

"Dr. Sun! Dr. Sun! What's wrong?"

Dr. Sun, who had spent more than 20 years in the military camp, suddenly collapsed.

The doctor beside him helped him sit on the ground and took his pulse to treat him.

Zhou Ruo and Doctor Yu went over upon hearing the sound, and Zhao Yucheng and Zhao Jinzhong also joined them.

"What's wrong with Dr. Sun?" Zhao Yucheng asked with concern.

The young doctor who had just taken Dr. Sun's pulse shook his head at Zhao Yucheng and said, "General, it's nothing serious. He's probably just tired."

Zhao Yucheng turned to look at Zhou Ruo, "Ruo'er, come and take a look."

The doctors were puzzled, but they all obeyed and made way for them.

Zhou Ruo and Doctor Yu squeezed in front of Doctor Sun, but before Zhou Ruo could speak, Doctor Yu spoke first.

"No need to say anything, Dr. Sun must have been poisoned. His symptoms are exactly the same as mine."

The doctors exclaimed in shock, "Poisoning?!"

Without offering any further explanation, Doctor Yu pressed down on Doctor Sun's instep, and Doctor Sun, who had just fainted, immediately cried out.

"Ouch! My foot!" This kind of pain that feels like you're suffocating is very abnormal.

What "fine" person would feel this much pain from having their foot pressed?

"Miss, may I try with my own needles?"

When Zhou Ruo was treating his poisoning, Doctor Yu could roughly understand the principle of the treatment by sensing the changes in the Qi and blood in his body.

So he wanted to try treating her with his own medical skills, secretly making a direct comparison with Zhou Ruo's medical skills.

At the same time, he also wanted to avoid appearing too useless in front of a child.

When Zhou Ruo saw Doctor Yu press on Doctor Sun's instep, she covered her mouth and chuckled to herself.

She thought Dr. Yu was quite intelligent.

"Dr. Yu, I don't know if your acupuncture will work, but you could give it a try!"

With Zhou Ruo's permission, Doctor Yu took out his silver needles.

Following Zhou Ruo's treatment method, a needle was inserted into both of Dr. Sun's feet.

After Zhou Ruo watched as Doctor Yu inserted the needle, Doctor Sun's blood and qi flowed upwards from the instep.

But it stopped before it reached my knees.

Dr. Sun showed no reaction, which puzzled Dr. Yu.

"Dr. Yu, try needling here again," Zhou Ruo said, pointing her little finger to the acupoints near Dr. Sun's knee.

"Yes, Miss." After saying that, Doctor Yu inserted two more needles into Doctor Sun's leg.

The blood and qi struggled upwards for a while before stopping again.

"Dr. Yu, here," Zhou Ruo said, pointing to Dr. Sun's thigh.

Doctor Yu obediently knelt down again.

And so, the needle pierced upwards all the way to Dr. Sun's chest.

The doctors were all surprised to see the dozen or so needles stuck in Dr. Sun's body.

How could the usually arrogant Doctor Yu be so obedient to this child?

After waiting for a while, Dr. Sun still did not respond, and Dr. Yu broke out in a sweat with tension.

Zhou Ruo looked at the weak, blocked qi in Doctor Sun's throat.

I tried to rush upwards, but I couldn't get past it no matter what I did.

"Dr. Yu, please give me a needle." Zhou Ruo stretched out her small hand to Dr. Yu.

The last acupoint, following Dr. Yu's upward needling technique, definitely won't be able to reach it.

Doctor Yu took out a needle and handed it to Zhou Ruo.

Zhou Ruoran held the needle up slightly higher with her soft little hand, took a deep breath, and forcefully inserted it.

As a result, Dr. Sun suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood.

Zhou Ruo was stunned for a moment. "Huh? I used too much force... I thought these were my silver needles... phew—"

Zhou Ruo patted her chest, startled by her own reaction.

For a moment she forgot that she was using Doctor Yu's metal needles, which were harder than her own.

Fortunately, the force she used when inserting the needle was not too great; if it had been just a little stronger, Dr. Sun would probably have used a completely different treatment method.

When Dr. Yu saw that Dr. Sun had such a strong reaction after Zhou Ruo inserted the needle, he was stunned.

Zhou Ruoming is clearly a soft child, and not as strong as me, so why is the acupuncture she gave so much more effective than mine?

The doctors surrounded Dr. Sun and helped him up, patting his back to help him catch his breath.

Soon, Dr. Sun regained his energy and spirits, becoming a completely different person from the tired and weak person he had been when he suddenly collapsed.

"What...what happened to me?" Doctor Sun slowly regained consciousness from his daze.

"Old Sun, you've been poisoned!" Doctor Yu casually took a silver needle from Doctor Sun's body and handed it to him.

"What kind of poison have I been poisoned by?" Doctor Sun looked at the silver needle in front of him, which was almost as black as a charcoal stick, and felt a lingering fear.

"She's been poisoned..." Doctor Yu paused for a moment, then silently turned to Zhou Ruo and asked, "What kind of poison..., Miss?"

"There's nothing there, it's not a thing," Zhou Ruo said.

The doctors looked at each other in bewilderment, and Zhao Yucheng and Zhao Jinzhong were also stunned.
