Chapter 1968: Chapter 1963: No More Worries
It turned out that after Hu Xiaobei left earlier, Feng Junjun had been taking care of Mengmeng very diligently.
Feng Junjun knew that the comatose Mengmeng definitely couldn’t hear her, but she kept talking to her about all sorts of interesting things.
At first, everything seemed normal.
But very soon, Mengmeng’s face in her coma became quite flushed.
When Feng Junjun first noticed this, she thought Mengmeng was about to wake up.
Later on, Feng Junjun realized she was overthinking.
She wasn’t waking up, but rather experiencing some kind of bodily issue.
Upon realizing this situation, Feng Junjun began eagerly hoping for Hu Xiaobei’s quick return.
However, Hu Xiaobei did not return at all...
She could only watch helplessly as her face became redder and redder.
Eventually, Mengmeng’s face started turning a purplish-black.
Feng Junjun wasn’t a professional, but she knew the problem was becoming more severe.
So she urgently rushed out of the room, fortunately spotting Hu Xiaobei.
That made her completely relieved.
...
After understanding everything, Hu Xiaobei gently nodded...
"I understand! You’ve really gone through a lot before. I found all the necessary herbs this time, so don’t worry, I’ll wake her up very soon."
While speaking, Hu Xiaobei took off the medicine basket and gently waved it in front of Feng Junjun.
"That’s great, that’s great!"
Crying out excitedly, Feng Junjun suddenly froze, dumbfounded by something she’d noticed...
Seeing her bewildered look, Hu Xiaobei hesitated and asked, "What’s wrong with you?"
Hu Xiaobei really didn’t know what was going on with her...
Why did she suddenly seem so lost?
Just as he was about to ask, Hu Xiaobei heard her speak anxiously, "Xiaobei, why does your face look so pale? Could you be poisoned too?"
As Feng Junjun asked, she looked at Hu Xiaobei intently, deeply fearful at this moment...
She was really worried that Hu Xiaobei might be poisoned too...
Seeing Feng Junjun so tense, Hu Xiaobei gently shook his head and said, "You’re overthinking it, I’m not poisoned. It’s just that looking for herbs was a bit painstaking, so I’m just a bit exhausted. At most, I need a day to fully recover."
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei’s explanation, she was somewhat doubtful, "Really? Xiaobei, you’re not lying to me?"
With a slight smile, Hu Xiaobei seriously spoke again, "Really! I’m not lying to you!"
"That’s good then, that’s good."
Looking at Xiaobei, she let out a long breath of relief!
She really couldn’t take much more, as Mengmeng’s situation already had her extremely on edge.
Seeing her completely relax, Hu Xiaobei offered, "Alright, time is tight, so let’s not waste any more time and get inside quickly!"
"Right, right, right!"
Saying this, Hu Xiaobei and Feng Junjun walked back into Mengmeng’s room.
As soon as they entered, Hu Xiaobei saw Mengmeng’s face, which had turned a purplish-blue.
Hu Xiaobei knew that in his case, if it were someone else, seeing her like this would deter them from even trying to approach or treat her.
"Xiaobei, is there anything I can do to help?"
Lack of involvement made her feel especially uneasy, so she hoped to be part of the antidote process.
Understanding Feng Junjun’s thoughts, Xiaobei gently smiled and said, "Of course there is!"
After saying this, Hu Xiaobei pointed to the herbs in the medicine basket and said, "You should go wash them clean now."
After saying that, Hu Xiaobei suddenly thought of something, "Oh, back when I asked you to find a clean clay pot for brewing the herbs, did you find one?"
"Yes, I did find one. It’s outside; I’ve already washed it clean."
There were plenty of tools for brewing herbs here, so Feng Junjun didn’t have to exert much effort to find one.
After finding it, she washed it exceptionally clean as per Hu Xiaobei’s instructions.
Encouragingly, Hu Xiaobei pointed at the herbs and spoke again, "You did well, now go wash them all clean!"
"Alright!"
After she left, Hu Xiaobei shifted his focus to the comatose Mengmeng.
Right now, Mengmeng looked quite terrifying!
Truly, as long as one wasn’t blind, they could see her problem was quite serious.
Taking a deep breath, Hu Xiaobei took out the silver needles for acupuncture.
After gently twirling them in his hand, Hu Xiaobei swiftly took action.
Hu Xiaobei planned to first use them to block Mengmeng’s heart meridian.
By doing so, it would prevent the toxin from invading her heart.
Hu Xiaobei knew it was really toxic, so if it invaded the heart, it would be even more troublesome.
After piercing with the silver needle, a peculiar light flashed in Hu Xiaobei’s eyes.
The reason for this was that Hu Xiaobei felt her body resisting him.
Hu Xiaobei knew that Mengmeng wouldn’t resist, nor would she refuse...
So the current resistance was definitely the poison that had taken control of her body.
In other words, it was they who were temporarily controlling Mengmeng’s body and competing with him.
"It seems you want to fight with me, huh, but I’m curious, do you think you’re qualified to compete with me?"
With a cold laugh, Hu Xiaobei quickly injected Nine Wood True Qi into her body.
This Nine Wood True Qi gathered swiftly in all her important organs as soon as it was injected into her body by Hu Xiaobei.
Seeing that they weren’t severely damaged, Hu Xiaobei let out a long sigh of relief.
Hu Xiaobei knew the fact that they weren’t severely damaged didn’t mean the toxin wasn’t potent, but rather that they weren’t in a hurry to let Mengmeng die.
Because they still needed Mengmeng’s body to continue reproducing...
Simply put, they were using Mengmeng’s body as a stepping stone...
Until they found a stronger host, they wouldn’t easily let her die.
But once they found a more formidable stepping stone, they would no longer need Feng Junjun, and by that time, they would ruthlessly kill her completely...
...
"If you hadn’t encountered me, you could surely have spread and reproduced wildly, but now, your good days are over."
After saying this, Hu Xiaobei injected more Nine Wood True Qi into her body, completely enveloping the most critical parts of her body, and then smiled...
Previously, without having protected all the necessary parts, Hu Xiaobei was worried they would go berserk like cornered rats later on.
Now, Hu Xiaobei was completely unafraid.
Thus, when making a move against them, he had no scruples whatsoever...
At this moment, Hu Xiaobei heard footsteps...
Turning around, Hu Xiaobei saw Feng Junjun had returned.
"Xiaobei, I’ve washed all the herbs!"
"Good! I’ll start brewing the medicine right away, but before that, I need to give them a warning!"
While saying this, Hu Xiaobei took out seven or eight more silver needles...
Glancing at the unconscious Mengmeng, Hu Xiaobei immediately flung them forward...
