Chapter 201: Saving someone
Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows subconsciously, how did she know that?
Bai Yun Qi brought the men to the door and came back. When he heard what Sun Ran Ran said, he asked, “You Yue, do you still have a way to save my father?”
Sima You Yue nodded, saying, “Although Uncle’s muscles and tendons are all broken, I just have to connect them and he’ll be fine. I didn’t say this just now because I didn’t want to let the people outside know for the time being.”
“Why is that?” Bai Yun Qi didn’t understand.
“Seeing the way those men outside were behaving, I think that Uncle’s wounds are not due to any normal cause. I think that someone tried to harm him. Since that’s the case, the opposing party will definitely think that Uncle is beyond saving.” Sima You Yue said.
“That’s right.” Sun Ran Ran said.
“I heard those men say just now that Uncle got injured because of us?” Sima You Yue was extremely bothered by this.
“You Yue, why don’t you save my father first.” Bai Yun Qi did not wish to tell her the reason.
“The Reversion Pill is still healing Uncle’s body, so we can’t move him for the time being.” Sima You Yue said, “You might as well tell me about how Uncle got injured.”
Bai Yun Qi glanced at his mother before saying, “Father was beaten up by men from Domineering Army. Reason being that he was unwilling to hand you guys over.”
“Domineering Army?” Sima You Yue furrowed her eyebrows.
“Actually, Qin Ming brought a few men over a few days prior and asked Father to hand you guys over, saying that you guys were the ones who killed Qin Wu. Bai Yun Qi said, “However, Father said that you guys killed Qin Wu for my sake, so he absolutely refused to hand you guys over and even said that we were not to tell you and to ask you guys to hide in our place.”
“No wonder you guys wouldn’t let us out the house recently.” Sima You Yue’s heart was ablaze with anger as she subconsciously clenched her hands into fists.
“Mm, it just happened that we received a mission and Father decided to undertake it himself. However, we never thought that Xi Yue Xi would go back and ask the Imperial Concubine to send two highly skilled Spirit Paragons over, beating him up when Father was outside doing a mission. If it wasn’t for the fact that his men desperately tried to protect him, I’m afraid that Father wouldn’t have a single bone remaining.” Bai Yun Qi’s veins started to pop out on his forehead when he said this, showing that he was really quite angry.
“Why did you guys not tell us about this. If we knew about this, we would have left earlier…” Sima You Yue said with guilt.
“You guys are our saviors. How could we possibly hand you over.” Bai Yun Qi patted Sima You Yue’s shoulder.
“Domineering Army has always wanted to touch us. Qin Wu’s situation is merely an excuse to do so.” Sun Ran Ran said, “Even if you guys weren’t here, he would use other reasons to attack us. Don’t take this to heart.”
How was it possible not to take it to heart!
“You said that they sent two Spirit Paragon experts?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Mm. Qin Mo sent them.” Bai Yun Qi said.
“Qin Mo? Xi Yue Xi’s mother?”
“Right.” Bai Yun Qi nodded his head, “Qin Ming is the older brother while Qin Mo is the middle and Qin Wu is the youngest. Originally, Domineering Army was just a little army. However, I wonder what eyesight His Majesty had that he took a fancy to Qin Mo and took her home to be his wife. Ever since Qin Mo became the Imperial Concubine, with Xi Yue Xi who was extremely talented, the Domineering Army rose to power. They rose up to become one of the three most powerful armies in a moment. I don’t know how they found out that we killed Qin Mo, which is how they were able to use this as an excuse to make trouble with us. These two Spirit Paragon experts were sent over by Qin Mo to take revenge for Qin Wu.”
Sima You Yue narrowed her eyes when she heard what Bai Yun Qi said.
West Moon Country’s Imperial Concubine, was it…
“Sigh. Like mother said, Domineering Army has targeted us for a really long time. Even if this didn’t happen, something else would.” Bai Yun Qi consoled when he saw that Sima You Yue’s expression was a little off.
Sima You Yue looked at this family. This situation happened because of the five of them, but not only did they not hand them over to placate others, they even consoled her in this situation. She didn’t know whether to call them stupid or foolishly kind.
However, she was quite touched by these sentiments.
“You all can relax. I will definitely cure Uncle.” She didn’t know how to express her emotions so she chose to give them an affirmation.
West Moon Country’s Imperial Dowager, is it? Very good. Very good.
“You Yue, will my father be able to return to how he was before?” Bai Yun Qi looked at Sima You Yue while asking.
“Mm.” Sima You Yue came to the bed side and took a look at Bai Yuan Chun’s situation, saying, “I need a quiet environment. It would be best if you let everyone else leave.”
This was to avoid having others know about the current situation inside.
“No problem.”
“Prepare a pool of water for me. Mm. Three metres long. It just has to be one meter deep.”
“Okay.”
“Also, let Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei come in and help me.”
This time, it was Sun Ran Ran who went out, saying that Sima You Yue wanted to save Bai Yuan Chun’s life. When those few men asked about Bai Yuan Chun’s condition, with a red nose, Sun Ran Ran retold what Sima You Yue said before.
When those few people from before heard that he would be a waste even if he was healed, their expressions were all different.
“Even if he is only able to lie on the bed in the future, I still want to save him. Even though the old Master has fallen, the army cannot fall. What you all should do or should go and do, do not mess it up. Do you understand?”
“Understand!”
“Disperse.” Sun Ran Ran waved her hands and those few people all left the house.
Bei Gong Tang and the others stood where they were without moving. Just now, those few men had already told them the reason why Bai Yuan Chun was injured, so the four of them were blaming themselves, wondering if there was anything they could possibly do to help.
“The few of you can enter.” Sun Ran Ran said to them.
Seeing that Bei Gong Tang and the others had entered, Little Tu followed them in as well.
“You Yue, Uncle… is he really…” Fatty Qu said as he looked at Bai Yuan Chun, who was lying on the bed lifelessly.
“He can still be saved.” Sima You Yue said, “However, I need your help.”
“You definitely have to tell us if there’s anything you want us to do.”
“Okay.”
It just so happened that there was a house with a pool of water that Sima You Yue requested for. She let Bai Yun Qi pour water in, then went together with Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei. The three of them took a lot of herbs to refine and poured the extracted essences into the water. When the water changed color, Bei Gong Tang and the others proceeded to take out the threads in Bai Yuan Chun’s body as Bai Yun Qi hugged him and jumped into the pool of water.
“Yun Qi, you have to support Uncle well, don’t let him fall down.” Sima You Yue said.
“I understand.” Bai Yun Qi nodded.
Sima You Yue let Bei Gong Tang and the others continue to refine the herbs as she sat opposite Bai Yuan Chun and guided the entry of medication into his body. At the same time, the accompanying needles that still had Spiritual Qi helped her to connect the meridians.
She needed an extremely high concentration for everything that just happened. Aside from Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei in the house, there was only Bai Yun Qi in the water as well as Sun Ran Ran who was at the side. There was also Halcyon, who was invited to ensure their safety.
Seeing her this way, nobody dared even to breathe loudly.
Without Sima You Yue declaring that it was enough, Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei refined all the herbs ceaselessly, maintaining the level of medication in the water.
They continued this way for three days. If it wasn’t for the fact that Bei Gong Tang and Ouyang Fei had been drilled by Sima You Yue in releasing an abnormal amount of mental energy, the two of them would have been paralysed by now.
