Chapter 143: An Experience Worse Than Death!
Chapter 143: An Experience Worse Than Death!
Yunmiao Peak, disciple living area.
In the courtyard where Luo Jianying lived, there were still twenty to thirty people kneeling, all of them facing various directions, looking depressed.
The two people kneeling at the front, Huang Gou and Liu Quanhai, were covered in bruises, but they didn't dare to say a word, and could only kneel obediently in the courtyard.
Ling Feng had ordered that they must kneel here obediently until Luo Jianying walked out of the sickroom.
These kneeling disciples had become the laughing stock of all the disciples in the sect, but they dared not make a sound.
Thinking of the tragic death of Jing Wuxue, they were terrified, and could only pray that Luo Jianying would recover soon. Otherwise, even if they were all martial artists of the Pulse Formation Realm, they would not be able to last long without sleep or food.
Suddenly, a light cyan light glided through the sky, and then, a familiar figure landed in the courtyard.
The guys who were kneeling crookedly immediately straightened their backs, looked at the person who came with trepidation, and kept silent.
The person who came was Ling Feng, and Su Hongxiu who he brought with him.
After a while, another figure landed. Jiang Wanqing also arrived.
"Senior Uncle Ling! Senior Sister Jiang, Junior Sister Su."
Zhou Yan and several other disciples living here greeted Ling Feng and the others when they saw them coming.
"Mhmm." Ling Feng nodded slightly, and without even looking at the kneeling disciples, he strode into Luo Jianying's ward.
With Ling Feng's three needles sealing his acupoints, Luo Jianying's pain was relieved a lot. Although he was lying weakly on the bed at the moment, his breathing had finally become much smoother.
"Senior Uncle Ling." Luo Jianying saw Ling Feng coming in and struggled to get up, but he couldn't even move a finger.
"Don't move."
Ling Feng took a step to the bed and pressed on Luo Jianying's shoulder. "Luo Jianying, I have already prepared the Black Jade Replenishing Ointment for you. I will reconnect your meridians later. With the help of the Black Jade Replenishing Ointment, you will be able to walk normally in half a month at most. You will be able to resume cultivation after a month."
"Really?" Luo Jianying's eyes lit up with excitement as he stared at Ling Feng. Tears of excitement welled up in his eyes.
"Hmm, it might be a bit painful for a while, so you need to endure it," Ling Feng said lightly.
"As long as I can start cultivating again, I can endure any pain." Luo Jianying gritted his teeth.
"That's good." Ling Feng took out a row of gold needles and a black medicine box from his bosom, placed them on the bedside, turned to look at Su Hongxiu and the others, and said lightly, "Hongxiu, you guys go out first, guard the door, and during my treatment, no one is allowed to come in and disturb me."
"Mhmm, mhmm." Su Hongxiu and the others nodded quickly, exited the room, closed the door, and stood guard outside with extreme seriousness.
"I'm going to start." Ling Feng reached out and quickly tapped Luo Jianying's chest a few times. Three gold needles appeared in his hand. These three needles were the ones Ling Feng used to seal Luo Jianying's pain that day. However, they would affect the sensitivity of his nerves to a certain extent, so before the treatment, they had to be removed first,otherwise, side effects from the treatment might appear.
"Mhmm!"
The moment the three needles were removed, Luo Jianying immediately let out a muffled groan. The intense pain that had been suppressed for several days instantly erupted, almost killing him from the pain.
He gritted his teeth tightly and said with a trembling voice, "Ling... Senior Uncle Ling, c-come on!"
"You'd better think about something else to distract yourself. Because in a moment, you will experience pain worse than death."
Ling Feng's expression was extremely calm. He was definitely not exaggerating. Luo Jianying had been lying in bed for several days, and the meridians in his body had gradually begun to reconnect automatically, but quite haphazardly.
Now, Ling Feng had to reconnect all of Luo Jianying's meridians correctly, which meant that he had to break his tendons and ligaments all over again.
"There is nothing worse than lying in bed and being a cripple forever!" A determined look flashed in Luo Jianying's eyes. "Let's start!"
Ling Feng nodded secretly. Perhaps Luo Jianying's aptitude isn't very good, and his background is not very prominent, but with just this unswerving will, he will definitely be able to achieve something in the future!
"I'm starting!"
Ling Feng took a deep breath and his hands moved like lightning.
Crack! Crack!
Four clear sounds of bones breaking rang out almost simultaneously. Before Luo Jianying could even react, his limbs were twisted off again.
Although Ling Feng's movements were fast enough, when the pain hit, Luo Jianying still couldn't help but let out a heart-rending roar.
If Ling Feng hadn't already stuffed a wet cloth into his mouth, he might have bitten off his own tongue.
Large beads of sweat rolled down Luo Jianying's forehead, soaking his clothes.
"You didn't even faint from the pain. However, it's not going to get any better from this point on."
Ling Feng grabbed eight gold needles with both hands, used the Connecting Needle Technique of The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, and focused on treating Luo Jianying.
The process of reconnecting the meridians took a full half hour!
For Luo Jianying, every minute and every second was incomparably painful. However, he endured it from beginning to end without fainting.
This Luo Jianying could be considered a tough guy!
Phew!
Ling Feng let out a sigh and casually removed the wet cloth from Luo Jianying's mouth. He said calmly, "Hmm, your tendons and veins have been reconnected. Now, I'll apply the Black Jade Replenishing Ointment for you. The amount in this jar is enough for half a month's use. After half a month, you should be able to get out of bed and walk. Remember, you mustn't rush things or train vigorously once you're out of bed for at least two weeks!"
"I... will... remember... Thank you..."
Luo Jianying seemed to have no strength left in his body. Even speaking appeared to be a struggle for him, seeing that he was gasping for breath between words.
His complexion was pale, and his entire body was drenched, as if he had just been pulled out of water.
"Stop talking." Ling Feng opened the medicine box and evenly applied the Black Jade Replenishing Ointment to Luo Jianying's wrists and ankles.
Hiss!
The potency of the Black Jade Replenishing Ointment was formidable. Luo Jianying, originally listless and weary, immediately felt a searing pain upon its application. His eyes reddened, and tears streamed down his cheeks incessantly.
The overpowering sensation of scorching heat relentlessly invaded his limbs and body, leaving him no choice but to endure this inhuman agony with clear consciousness.
"The Black Jade Replenishing Ointment not only restores the strength of your tendons and veins but also widens and strengthens them. Once you recover this time, your cultivation speed should see an improvement," explained Ling Feng.
"Thank you, Senior Uncle Ling," said Luo Jianying with a pained expression. In his current state, it was impossible for him to muster a smile.
"Alright, rest well," Ling Feng said softly, patting Luo Jianying's shoulder. "In the future, I'll have Zhou Yan change your medicine. Just focus on recuperating."
Having reconnected Luo Jianying's meridians, Ling Feng finally felt a sense of relief in his heart.
His mind was now consumed by the technique Scorching Sky Blaze.
Before Duanmu Qingshan emerged from seclusion, his sole focus was on swiftly mastering this unparalleled sword technique with its sky-defying power.
