Chapter 337
Bei Xiuyan put his knuckled fingers on his belt and spoke very naturally, "I am the patient here and you are the doctor. There is no need to worry about anything."
As he spoke, he turned around and took off his upper body clothes, exposing his chest.
Shen Ruzhou's eyes immediately widened. As expected from his years of martial arts practice, Bei Xiuyan's muscles were tight and well-defined, giving her an urge to poke them with her fingers.
Her palms were a little sweaty, she swallowed hard, walked behind Bei Xiuyan and started to apply the acupuncture.
She twisted the silver needle with her slender fingers and burned it on the candle, then dipped it in the special potion. "It will be very painful. Prince Regent, please bear with it."
As she said that, she found the acupuncture point on his back and stabbed it.
Unexpectedly, Bei Xiuyan didn't make any sound the moment he plunged into it.Shen Ruzhou was very confused. She knew very well how painful it would be when the needle was dipped in medicine and inserted into the acupuncture point.
If it were anyone else, he would have screamed, or even made a fuss and died. Two or three people had to hold him down to continue the acupuncture, but the Beixiu Banquet was so quiet that there was no sound at all.
Bei Xiuyan's back was turned to her, so she couldn't see his expression, but from his tight muscles and stiff back, she could clearly feel the pain that Bei Xiuyan was enduring.
He just didn't lose his temper in front of her.
Shen Ruzhou couldn't bear it, so she took out the handkerchief she had brought with her and handed it over.
"Prince Regent, this handkerchief has been fumigated with anesthetic drugs. It was originally used by me to stun bad guys for self-defense, but the anesthetic drugs on it can also relieve pain."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Bei Xiuyan taking the handkerchief and putting it neatly into his arms.
Shen Ruzhou was stunned for a moment, suspecting that Bei Xiuyan didn't hear her clearly at all, but she hesitated again and again and finally stopped talking.
She gathered her thoughts, took out another silver needle from the medicine bag, and burned it on the fire.While applying the medicine, she intentionally looked at Bei Xiuyan's expression.
He frowned slightly, his face became even paler due to pain, veins popped up on his forehead, and he broke out in cold sweat.
Seeing this, Shen Ruzhou's heart felt as if it was entangled by an invisible thread and tightened slightly.
She couldn't help but said, "Prince Regent, during the acupuncture treatment, you can talk to me and divert your attention to relieve the pain."
Bei Xiuyan did not speak, but straightened his back and sat on the soft couch, looking at the lush pear trees outside the window.
Shen Ruzhou continued to place the needle carefully and accurately.This is the most critical shot and also the most painful shot.
As soon as the needle fell, Bei Xiuyan trembled all over, and large beads of sweat slid across his cheeks and fell from his chin.
Shen Ruzhou quickly supported him, helped him stabilize his body, and looked at him with a worried look, "Prince Regent, are you okay?"
Bei Xiuyan's lips were as white as paper, but he just waved his hands and said in a hoarse voice, "Do you like pear blossoms?"
Shen Ruzhou nodded, "I like it. My favorite is the pear blossom, which is as white as snow and has a pleasant fragrance."
Bei Xiuyan looked at the pear trees outside the window in trance, his eyes already a little twitchy due to the pain of acupuncture, like a lake filled with mist, and a wonderful picture was outlined in the mist.
"The pear blossoms in Lishan Mountain are very beautiful. When the flowers bloom, people feel like they are in a white and pure dreamland. It is so beautiful that it seems real and illusory, and you can't tell what night it is. Have you been there?"
Shen Ruzhou blurted out without thinking, "I've been there."
Hearing this, the fog in Bei Xiuyan's eyes dissipated. He turned around and raised his fingers, but finally dropped them, clenching them tightly into fists, and his white knuckles made a "click" sound.
"When did you go? That place is extremely secretive and dangerous. Who went with you? Did you bring a maid?"
Shen Ruzhou didn't expect Beixiu Banquet to ask such detailed questions. She hesitated for a moment and said vaguely: "I've been there a few times, and my brother went with me. Miao Dong... seems to have followed him."
She responded perfunctorily. God knows how much she resisted recalling that trip to Lishan.
For so long, she has been very shy about any topic related to Lishan, but the fragment that remains in her mind will still appear in her dreams from time to time.
In the dark cave, she lay on the straw...
