Plus, I’m not cut out for business affairs.
If you asked to take a gun to the battlefield and fight the enemy, now that I’d still be good at,” Old Master Situ said.
Then, his face turned somber as if he had just rembered sothing unpleasant.
“Grandpa, what’s wrong?” Situ Xin noticed the change in Old Master Situ’s expression right away.
“Ah, it’s all because of Old Deng, his condition has worsened again.” Old Master Situ sighed, “Old Deng and your grandpa, as well as your grandfather Xiao, we’re all war buddies, very close to each other.
We used to chat and laugh together all the ti.
It was only after Old Deng beca the chairman and got busy that we didn’t see each other as much.
But two days ago, when the three of us went to visit him, seeing him lying in the hospital bed made us feel very distressed.” Old Master Situ’s mood sank even lower.
“Doesn’t Grandpa Deng have a chief physician?” Situ Xin proactively adjusted her terminology for Old Deng.
“Old Deng’s chief physician is around, but he’s out of options too.
You know, late-stage Parkinson’s disease is considered terminal,” Old Master Situ explained.
“Then Grandpa, why don’t I give it a try?
If you’re worried, next ti you visit Grandpa Deng, take with you.
I can examine him.
Even if I can’t cure him, I can tell my master about his specific symptoms and have him co up with a solution,” Situ Xin suggested, thinking that since they had a connection with her grandpa and Grandpa Xiao, she ought to lend a hand.
Old Master Situ was moved by Situ Xin’s words, “Even if I can’t cure him, at least I can tell my master about the specific symptoms,” and after a mont’s thought, he said, “Okay, I’ll visit Old Deng tomorrow, and you’ll co with .” In his heart, he murmured to himself, “How could I have forgotten about Baby’s master?”
Situ Xin knew that her grandpa was always impatient, eager to address anything that ca to his mind promptly.
But it made sense as he’d been worried about this for many days and had finally found a potential solution.
He had absolute trust in Situ Xin’s master.
Originally, Situ Xin had plans to visit the Dragon Society to find the Sun Sisters tonight, but with the change in circumstances, she had to put this aside.
That night, Situ Xin teleported into the space with Baibai.
After arriving in the space, Situ Xin did not practice in the villa as usual.
Instead, she teleported directly to the cave where she found Baibai last ti.
She had a mission to accomplish in the space today.
“Baibai, you can play here by yourself.
I’ve got things to do,” Situ Xin said after setting Baibai down and cautioning her.
“Master, tell Baibai what you’re going to do.
Maybe Baibai can help you,” Baibai suggested, batting her round tiger eyes at Situ Xin.
“You don’t need to help, it’s not a difficult task.
I just need to practice a set of Golden Needles,” Situ Xin replied while stroking Baibai’s soft fur.
Baibai’s fur felt so comfortable that Situ Xin loved to fluff it up whenever she had nothing else to do.
Situ Xin had been practicing the acupuncture techniques from the Jade Token in her mind, looking for needles that suited her from the mont she started learning.
Unfortunately, she had not found any that t her standards.
It was only after she talked to her grandpa about treating Old Deng the next day and returned to her room that she realized she still didn’t have the right needles for herself.
Recently, she had found materials for crafting and now had the ability to craft on her own.
So, she decided to craft a set of Golden Needles today, to get so practice.
“Master, are you going to use the Golden Needle to treat that Old Deng?” Baibai usually understood what everyone said, but only Situ Xin, the master, could hear Baibai’s words.
“Yes, so stay put, I’ll be done in a mont,” Situ Xin replied as she got up, ready to find the materials for forging the Golden Needle.
“Hey, Master, wait a mont, why the rush?
Baibai hasn’t finished talking,” Baibai said, jumping from the ground and landing in Situ Xin’s arms before she could turn around.
“What else do you want to say?” Situ Xin asked, puzzled.
“Yes, sothing very important.
Master, there’s no need to go through the trouble of forging any Golden Needles, and besides, these Golden Needles aren’t as good as your original needles,” Baibai said, tilting its tiger face and speaking with pride.
“My original Golden Needle?
Baibai, what exactly was my identity before, and was my dical skill really good?” Situ Xin asked, her face full of curiosity, and Baibai, caught off guard by her questions, realized only then that it seed to have let sothing slip.
Luckily, it hadn’t revealed the crucial point, and Baibai looked at Situ Xin, praying internally, “I surely didn’t spill the beans, definitely not.”
“Oh dear, Master, do you want the Golden Needle or not?” Baibai said, avoiding Situ Xin’s gaze.
Seeing Baibai’s deanor, Situ Xin was sure it was so celestial secret not to be divulged.
She didn’t press Baibai.
“Alright, where is that needle you ntioned, the one better than the Golden Needle?” Situ Xin deftly changed the topic.
“Master, just wait for a mont,” Baibai urged, and just as its words fell, Situ Xin saw a white shadow flash before her eyes, and then Baibai disappeared from her sight.
About a quarter-hour later, the white shadow returned, and Baibai reappeared in front of Situ Xin, carrying a wooden box in its mouth.
Situ Xin took the wooden box from Baibai’s mouth, and upon touching it, she felt a jolt, followed by a familiar sensation spreading throughout her body.
Gently caressing the exquisitely carved wooden box, the feeling of familiarity grew stronger within her.
“Master, the needles in this box were forged from the Five-Color Stone left over from Nvwa’s nding of the heavens, and after your use, each needle in this box has gained a certain spirituality,” Baibai inford her, bringing Situ Xin back from her reverie.
“Baibai, what do you an by each needle having a certain spirituality?” Situ Xin seized on the last part of Baibai’s explanation.
She had never heard of needles possessing spirituality.
“Master, the acupuncture you are currently learning involves infusing needles with Spiritual Power when treating patients.
These needles, after regularly receiving the nourishnt of their master’s Spiritual Energy, develop a asure of spirituality.
So needles, under certain fortuitous circumstances, may give rise to a Needle Spirit.
A needle that has developed a Needle Spirit has done so through prolonged exposure to its master’s Spiritual Power.
Therefore, the Needle Spirit ford inside the needle will obey its master’s commands, and during acupuncture treatnts, it will automatically adjust the amount of Spiritual Energy it channels into the patient based on their condition.
The use of needles with a Needle Spirit in treatnt will yield much more effective results,” Baibai shared what it knew with Situ Xin.
After all, it knew so much from what its master had told it.
