Republic of China Era: Entering the Dao through Divine Strike.

He lowered the carriage curtain and called out towards the carriage shaft, "Old Wu, slow down."

"Yes, Master Li, trust my skills, I, Old Wu, will make sure the vehicle doesn't shake at all."

Old Wu didn't even turn his head, but respectfully replied.

It's worth mentioning that he was also involved in the previous wave of light red spiritual energy.

In Li Xin's eyes, this coachman he often hired was quite reliable.

In the blink of an eye, Zhuang Hongxiu had already swiftly unbuttoned Cheng Feiyan's jacket and even lifted up her red undergarment.

The white rabbit, hidden deep in the mountains, seemed to be chased by a hungry wolf and leaped out at lightning speed.

Two bright red spots of blood seeping from his forehead were particularly eye-catching.

"I told you to help your senior sister up, Hongxiu, what are you doing..."

Li Xin sighed, rubbing his forehead.

He wanted to adopt a "don't look at what you shouldn't see" approach.

However, Zhuang Hongxiu had already prepared to this point...

Exposing the surgical field allows for better treatment, so what's there to be hesitant about?

"Senior sister, I'm sorry to offend you."

Feeling the barely audible breaths of Senior Sister Feiyan and the fading light in her eyes, Li Xin felt a slight pang of pain in his heart.

Without further hesitation.

He reached into the needle pouch at his waist and pulled out seven silver needles.

At this point, there was no time to worry about disinfection.

Swift as lightning, precise in identifying acupoints.

The silver needles were inserted into seven major acupoints on Cheng Feiyan's chest, and then the Qianyang Fierce Fire Force was used to gently shake and tap them, causing the needle tails to hum and vibrate.

It was visible to the naked eye that Cheng Feiyan's chest was trembling violently, but it had gradually calmed down, and her breathing had become more even and fine.

Although it is still very weak.

But it's finally not like before, like a candle in the wind, about to go out at any moment.

Li Xin gently helped his senior sister put her clothes back on before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

Although I've tried this acupuncture technique called "Seven Stars Locking Life" on myself, it is indeed extremely effective.

However, this was the first time he had used it on someone else.

Seeing that his senior sister was finally alright, he was relieved.

"Senior sister, don't worry. When we get home, I have a way to heal your injuries. And there won't be any lasting effects."

"I trust you."

Cheng Feiyan stared at Li Xin for a long while before finally uttering a few words.

Her eyes held a complex mix of emotions: perhaps guilt, perhaps relief, but mostly contentment.

My junior brother and I practice push hands every day, feeling each other's strength and controlling our qi and blood...

I originally thought that although there was a difference in combat strength between myself and my junior brother, the difference was not that great.

Today's battle, however, made her see things completely.

So, it turns out that when the two of them sparred, the junior brother really could hide his skills.

Of the 100% of skill, maybe only 10% or 20% was actually used.

I'm just messing with myself.

"From now on, if anyone calls me 'Feiyan the Most Virtuous,' I'll spit on them."

A blush rose on Cheng Feiyan's face as she said awkwardly.

It's clear that she's no longer in pain.

Li Xin laughed along, "Wouldn't that be letting someone else benefit?"

"Bah!"

This time, both women in the car blushed and secretly spat.

Li Xin let out a long breath, pulled open one of the carriage curtains, and turned to look.

Then they saw people running and cheering as they told others what was happening.

I could faintly hear many people talking about things like "Li Xin," "Sakura Pavilion," "Yagyu Haruno," and "Meishen."

Clearly, they were talking about what had just happened at the Sakura Pavilion.

The news spread faster than his own carriage.

Are you really that gossipy?

Fujita Shinichi and Yagyu Haruno, among others, died in front of Zhang Wuying.

Leaving aside the reformist faction in the court and the emperor's actual reaction.

Take the cherry blossom group for example; those who made a large-scale trip to Beijing this time might not be able to accept this reality.

How will they react?

Thinking about the near future, I see the madness and recklessness of those Japanese devils.

Li Xin's eyes were slightly gloomy.

Ultimately, we still have to race against time.

Become stronger as soon as possible...

"Junior brother, I'm the one who dragged you into this. If I had known, I would have listened to you and not gone to the embassy district."

After her injuries were sealed, Cheng Feiyan looked much better.

Although her thinking is a bit slow and her speech is not fast, she can still converse freely.

"It has nothing to do with Senior Sister. Even if this hadn't happened, we would have had to confront Sakura Pavilion sooner or later."

Not only cherry blossoms, but the Anssa people certainly won't swallow that insult either.

While the death of the wealthy merchant is not mentioned, the deaths of the white-robed priest and the Templar Knight cannot be easily forgotten.

The other side hasn't made a move yet, perhaps simply because they're not ready.

Or rather, they were waiting for the final outcome of their battle at the Wan Hua Lou.

"I just hope that Kirigakure Gendo and Momoi Shusui won't personally intervene on Sakura's side."

They were, after all, here to participate in the reform movement, a crucial matter that couldn't be interfered with. Of course, it's also possible that these two, confident in their status, wouldn't take action.

On the other hand, Akashin Ryuichi, who came from a military background, was arrogant and cruel, and had a deep friendship with Harada.

It's hard to say what this person is really thinking.

Cheng Feiyan said, supporting herself.

A glint of light flashed in Li Xin's eyes: "So, high-ranking officials from the Eastern Barbarian military have come? What a coincidence."

I wonder how many troops he brought?

……

Requesting monthly votes.

Chapter 100 The journey ahead is long and arduous, but you are doing well.

"Xiao Wan, help Hong Xiu prepare a dose of herbal medicine. Boil it over high heat, and be quick."

arrive home.

They saw that the food stalls in front of the door had already closed, and a few younger ones followed their older brother out to inquire about the situation.

Li Xiaowan was helping her aunt tidy up the yard and sweep away the dust.

Li Xin gave an order and immediately carried Cheng Feiyan straight into his bedroom.

And they even closed the door.

Li Xiaowan looked stunned and turned to look at her mother.

I discovered that my mother, who used to be very gossipy, now has a calm and peaceful expression, just like those lay Buddhists who have been eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist prayers for many years.

There wasn't a trace of curiosity in his eyes.

She put down the rag, wiped the water off her hands behind her back, took two quick steps, grabbed Zhuang Hongxiu, and asked nervously, "Sister Hongxiu, what kind of medicine does Second Brother want to brew? If we boil medicine over a high flame, the effect might be much weaker."

"Come with me."

Zhuang Hongxiu gave a wink, went to her room, and quickly picked out Bupleurum, Schisandra, Angelica dahurica, Scrophularia, Tangerine peel, Atractylodes macrocephala, etc., taking ten to fifteen grams of each.

A dose of medicine was prepared very quickly.

"A calming soup, this..."

"Little Wan, don't worry about that. The young master is talking about this soup. Have you forgotten that talisman from before?"

Zhuang Hongxiu looked at Li Xiaowan with amusement.

This girl has an exceptional talent for medicine, able to apply what she learns to other situations, and her grasp of the properties of medicines is particularly meticulous and thorough.

The "Da Yang Yuan Tang" she prepared could even enhance the medicinal effects by 10% or 20% by adjusting the dosage of the herbs.

This skill seems to be innate.

In understanding the properties of medicinal herbs, they are almost no less skilled than the top experts.

Of course, she only has this ability with a few familiar prescriptions at the moment.

My skills in diagnosing and prescribing medicine are still far from sufficient; I need to accumulate experience over the years.

Even so, it's still quite impressive.

Some people's talents are visible to the naked eye.

Even from a very young age, one can often tell whether a person can reach the pinnacle of a certain industry.

Even if Li Xiaowan's ability to "season" was slightly inferior in other aspects, it would not prevent her from achieving great success in the field of medicine later on.

While she possessed medical skills, Li Xiaowan was far less adept at handling situations and adapting to changing circumstances.

At that moment, she didn't realize that with the talisman developed by Li Xin, there was no real need for any medicine.

The reason they were asked to brew the medicine was, of course, to cover their tracks.

After all, the practice of burning talismans and dissolving them in water, then drinking the ash water to cure illnesses, looks exactly like a scam. It's the work of a charlatan.

Therefore, when using [Zhu You Fu Shui] to heal injuries, it is best to first put the person to sleep.

This is not a pharmacological need, but a psychological one.

Otherwise, Cheng Feiyan had never witnessed Li Xin's research into the character "生" (life), nor had she seen the miracle of his wounds healing rapidly, so she couldn't help but doubt it.

If you don't believe in your heart, it will hinder the recovery from your injury.

Zhuang Hongxiu didn't need to be told what was going on; she understood immediately just by listening to Li Xin's casual instructions.

Li Xiaowan patted her forehead lightly: "Oh, right, with the talisman turning into water, the type of soup doesn't matter."

No wonder my second brother wanted to decoct the medicine over a high flame. Here's what we'll do: reduce the dried tangerine peel by 50%, the scrophularia root by 30%, and increase the amount of Polygonum multiflorum stem…”

She couldn't figure it out herself, but after being enlightened, she immediately turned to her major.

While deftly preparing the medicine, she asked, "How did Sister Feiyan get so badly injured?"

"It's like this..."

……

Li Xin ignored Zhuang Hongxiu's boasting about his earlier imposing and menacing demeanor.

He placed Senior Sister Feiyan on the bed, and using the cinnabar he had prepared beforehand, spread out yellow paper and began to draw talismans.

"Junior brother, you're drawing a talisman. Are you trying to ask the ancestral master to bless me?"
