Chapter 588 Wind Ghost Acupuncture
Dragged away by Granny Zhao in a hurry, Lin ngya did not get more information from her at the mont.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them arrived at the tent.
As soon as they entered the tent, they heard a shout co from inside.
After breathing heavily several tis, Lin ngya saw a skinny woman in the middle of the tent pressed on the bed by the others with hair disheveled.
The beds around her were all in a ss. Fortunately, the cradle, where the baby lay, had been removed.
After taking her breath back, Lin ngya walked towards the center of the chaos.
“Ah—ah—ah—”
Only hearing the heart-wrenching howls was enough to horrify Lin ngya.
She didn’t know how the thin and weak woman could be so strong that even three old won and four or five strong won couldn’t hold her down.
After twisting desperately, she almost broke free from the others.
“Let her go. Let have a look.”
Lin ngya raised her voice slightly. In an instant, the won in the tent seed to have found the pivot and scattered at once.
The woman held on the ground suddenly jumped up.
She looked at Lin ngya with red eyes, and her delicate face was distorted.
However, with surprising strength, Lin ngya grabbed the woman’s wrists, after which the woman couldn’t break free from her no matter how hard she tried.
Lin ngya seed to have noticed sothing and hit the woman in the neck casually.
Finally, the madwoman rolled her eyes and quieted down.
“Oh... fortunately, you’re here. Otherwise, we would be scared to death.”
The won helping hold down the madwoman by the side finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Apart from anything else, if they failed to stop the woman, she might hurt the innocent baby.
However, Lin ngya frowned. After cooperating with the others to settle the woman down, she ca to ask everyone about what had happened.
“Here’s what happened. When we were chatting, she suddenly said that she felt a little sick. We asked her what the matter was, but she couldn’t give a definite answer. However, not long after, she went crazy and attempted to smash her baby If it weren’t for several sisters who snatched the baby from her, she probably would have killed the baby at this mont.”
Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law, who had regained her composure at this mont, patted her chest and seed to be a little scared.
Nevertheless, Lin ngya grasped the point from her words.
“Let’s get out of here. Xiu, go and settle them down. Sister Xiao, can you do a favor?”
What had happened just now left a lingering fear in everyone’s heart.
However, since Lin ngya was here, it would be aningless for them to stay longer.
Soon, only Lin ngya and the other two won were left in the spacious tent.
As Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law said, the woman went crazy after saying that she felt uncomfortable.
Moreover, what Lin ngya found more strange was that how could a woman, who knelt on the ground and begged others to spare her baby, intend to smash her baby.
The woman passed out after being hit in the back of her neck by Lin ngya.
The woman’s face was already in a ss after her struggle a mont ago.
Lin ngya took the towel handed by Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law and carefully wiped the woman’s face.
It was only then that she noticed that the woman’s face was simply too pale.
“How could it be? Sister Xiao, can you help ask my teacher to co over?”
Lin ngya felt the woman’s pulse and her eyes suddenly darkened.
Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law didn’t dare to neglect her request and imdiately trotted out of the tent.
Not long after, Baili Rui hurried to the tent where Lin ngya was.
“What’s wrong?”
Under normal circumstances, her teacher would not easily step into this place.
After all, he should avoid arousing suspicion caused by showing up in a place where won gathered.
However, sothing serious must have happened, since Lin ngya asked him to co in such a hurry.
After seeing the woman lying on the bed, Baili Rui seed to have realized sothing.
“Sister Xiao, please guard outside for , and rember not to let anyone in.”
The Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law imdiately did as she was told. Although she did not know what had happened to her companion, Lin ngya’s serious expression was enough to make her understand how serious the situation was.
Baili Rui walked up to the woman’s bed and squatted on the ground with a frown.
“Are you sure?”
Lin ngya nodded and then pointed to three acupuncture points on the top of the woman’s head.
“The Wind Ghost Acupuncture. I just touched the top of her head and found exactly three needle beneath her scalp. Teacher, is there any way to save her?”
When Baili Rui taught Lin ngya the art of needle control, he taught her acupuncture.
Moreover, this acupuncture could not only cure the sickness to save the patients but also kill people without being noticed.
The Wind Ghost Acupuncture referred to a thod of inserting the silver needles, that had been soaked in a spirit for three days, at three acupuncture points on the top of soone’s head.
The special acupuncture could make the person die of madness.
If Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law’s description was true, this woman must have gone crazy because she could not stand the sharp pain caused by the Wind Ghost Acupuncture.
However, there were different rules every ti the Wind Ghost Acupuncture was applied. The most terrible thing was that if they blindly withdrew the needles without knowing the order and the depth of the acupuncture, it could just kill an innocent person.
What was more, this woman had her baby. Without the care of the biological mother, the baby was too pitiful.
Therefore, she asked her teacher to co to work with her on the thod of saving the woman.
“No. If we can’t find the person who inserted the needles, once the silver needle is withdrawn, this woman will die. However, except for the mbers of our Baili family, there should be no one else who has ever studied this acupuncture.”
Baili Rui said with a frown. In the current situation, he had no idea how to save the woman.
Although there were only three needles, they could be inserted in thousands of ways.
It was no exaggeration to say that the slightest discrepancy was enough to kill the patient.
Therefore, he had to be cautious.
“If that’s the case, Teacher, I rember that the two of us insert the needles in the sa way.”
An idea suddenly ca to Lin ngya’s mind.
Since her teacher said that only the mbers of the Baili Family could use this acupuncture, the one, who hurt the woman with the Wind Ghost Acupuncture, probably intended to set up either her or her teacher.
“You an... That’s possible. After all, I treated others before. It was possible for soone to morize my acupuncture if he paid attention to it.”
Baili Rui thought for a while and nodded his agreent.
If Lin ngya guessed correctly, this woman still had a chance to be saved.
“Why don’t you give it a try, Teacher? We should make every possible effort. It would be an unexpected gain if we really succeeded in saving this woman.”
Lin ngya thought that if soone really intended to set them up, he would definitely imitate her teacher’s acupuncture.
However, she had a hunch that things probably would not be so simple.
Baili Rui agreed with her. He reached out and touched the three acupuncture points on the top of the woman’s head.
He spun the needle in the middle of the top of the woman’s head anticlockwise four tis and then quickly withdrew it.
As expected, the woman did not twitch all over. Instead, her knitted brows relaxed a little.
Lin ngya breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it seed that she guessed correctly this ti.
Her teacher withdrew the other two needles in the way he was used to.
The woman’s breathing returned to even. Lin ngya imdiately grabbed the woman’s wrist. Fortunately, they managed to save the woman.
“You guessed it right, but you should be careful of this person who is capable of acupuncture. Since this person could imitate my acupuncture and hide it from you, this person must be shrewd and cautious. With such a person among the victims, you should be careful.”
Baili Rui put away the three silver needles. After instructing Lin ngya sothing, he quietly walked out of the tent.
There were people outside the tent curious about what was going on inside.
Nevertheless, since the crisis had been resolved, it was better to let everyone have a good rest.
As Lin ngya turned around and walked out, a sparkle flashed across her eyes...
Things had been settled.
In front of the frightened mothers outside, Lin ngya only explained that the woman had a ntal breakdown because of being frightened terribly yesterday.
She would be fine as long as she took a good rest.
Now what Lin ngya said was considered the truth by everyone, so no one refuted it.
After that, Lin ngya arranged a temporary tent for the injured woman to live alone. At this mont, the camp, which had been noisy all day, gradually quieted down.
Xiu rushed over to find Lin ngya, who was comforting the mothers, before dinner and said that the woman had woken up.
“Oh? She woke up so soon. Let’s go and have a look. Granny Zhao, please help make a bowl of chicken porridge and take it there.”
She didn’t expect that the woman would wake up so soon.
Although Lin ngya was surprised, she was still a little worried.
Even a healthy person would be sick for three days after suffering this. What was more, it had been less than half a year since the woman had her baby.
As she expected, as soon as she entered the tent, she saw the woman sitting on the bed with a pale face and sobbing.
“Sister, stop crying, or your eyes will be hurt.”
Sitting by the woman’s bed, Lin ngya took out her handkerchief and wiped the woman’s tears carefully.
“I’m surnad Wang and married into the Wu family. Thank you for saving my life, Your Highness.”
As she spoke, she attempted to kneel down to express her gratitude towards Lin ngya.
However, she was stopped by Lin ngya and Xiu.
“You don’t have to do this. Sister Wu, I know you didn’t an to do that. How are you? Are you feeling better?”
She had struggled desperately yesterday, and soone had inserted needles at the acupuncture points on her head. She had to rest for at least half a year before she could recover.
Sister Wu was so pitiful. She kept crying, saying that she was sorry for her baby and her husband who had risked his life to protect her and her baby.
Lin ngya had no choice but to comfort her with Xiu. After a while, the woman gradually stopped crying.
