Chapter 166 Bringing Hope

Ye Xi knew that it would be difficult to escape from here with her current ability.

Since I can't escape, I can only face it.

Gu Yantian took her to a wooden house with an oil lamp lit in the room, and a thin middle-aged man lay on a simple wooden bed.

His body was covered with many herbs, but it seemed that it could not relieve the pain on his body. His whispers from time to time could make a man with seven feet of pain sound, which shows how cruel this disease is.

Gu Yantian seemed not afraid to look, turned his face to the side and said sadly: "My cousin has been lying down for almost a month, and he is thirty-nine years old this year. This is the curse of the Tang family on the Gu family."

Ye Xi frowned and carefully checked the condition of the man on the bed. Gu Yantian thought Ye Xi would be scared away by the man with fishy smell in front of him.

But when he saw that Ye Xi not only did not show a disgusting expression, he also grabbed his cousin's hand pulse with her hand, his clear eyes were slightly wide open.

"Do you have any medical gloves?" Ye Xi asked and looked at him while taking his pulse.

"Yes." Gu Yantian looked at her in shock, then turned around and went out.

Not long after, he took a medicine box and came in, which contained very neat medicines and tools.

Ye Xi spoke while wearing gloves: "His pulse is slow, weak, and heart failure."

"Ye Xi..." Gu Yantian called her, his voice not as cold as before.

Ye Xi glanced at him and said, "Is there no brighter light?"

Gu Yantian immediately spoke and said, "It's not that we don't light the lights, but our disease has a very strange characteristic. Under the light, it will make them more painful."

"Oh?" Ye Xi was surprised.

Could it be that there is really a Gu on them?

I heard that Guworms like to stay in dark and humid places. If the lights are too bright, they will not survive in the sun.

Ye Xi didn't say anything anymore, but just untied the man's chest with his hands to check his situation.

Gu Yantian pursed his thin lips and asked after a long time: "Ye Xi, aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of? He is not a beast, he is just a person tortured by illness." Ye Xi said calmly.

"The people in our village are afraid to come to see him, because they are men, they are afraid of being infected by him..."

"Then why are you still standing here?" Ye Xi heard the word "contagious" and looked at him with bright eyes: "Aren't you afraid?"

Gu Yantian's slender body froze slightly, and he couldn't help but take a step back: "I'm scared too, but I am the patriarch and cannot retreat."

"You are still a little responsible." Ye Xi had already checked the patient's chest and heard his heartbeat. His heartbeat was slow and weak, and he was about to die.

"How do you treat their condition?" Ye Xi had no solution. She treated normal conditions, but for the first time, she did not dare to do it easily.

"We have studied many kinds of medicines and wanted to force out the Gu in their bodies, but they have not been effective. On the contrary, they will die in pain." Gu Yantian said in a low voice.

Ye Xi pursed her lips and said nothing. Then, she saw a row of silver needles in the doctor's box.

She picked it up: "I have some experience in acupuncture. Can I try to help him with acupuncture?"

"Of course, just try it. My cousin will live in a few days. No matter what method you do, please use it." Gu Yantian's eyes were slightly stunned, and he looked at Ye Xi brightly.

Ye Xi is different from the women in the clan. They are afraid and afraid. They feel that the sick people are possessed by devils, but Ye Xi is bold and meticulous and needs to treat him.

Ye Xi used the lights to find acupuncture points. She first wanted to stabilize the patient's heart failure and could not let the disease spread.

After a few needles, blood was revealed at the eye of the needle, and Ye Xi was shocked.

This was the first time she had seen such a situation.

"Have you checked the patient's blood? Have you found the Gu worm?" Ye Xining asked.

"We have all tested it, but there is no abnormality. This is what we think is strange. It is obviously like a normal person. Why do we start to get sick when we live to the age of 37 or 38?" Gu Yantian was confused.

"This may be a genetic problem. The genetic code has not been cracked yet. It is a very mysterious thing. It is like a ghost. It has never been seen by anyone, but it has always existed in the world. What humans know is still too small. There are too many things in this world that cannot be explained." Ye Xi also felt sad. People will face birth, old age, sickness and death for a lifetime, and they will be together.

"Ye Xi, your blood poisoned the holy fish of our clan before. Will your blood poison the insects in my cousin's body to death?" Gu Yantian asked curiously and expectantly.

Ye Xi then realized that Gu Yantian used a knife to cut her blood, and a bright red fish jumped out and died on the ground.

It turns out that kind of fish is their holy fish.

"My blood definitely can't save him. Maybe it's because I have tried medicine frequently in recent years and overdose of the medicine in my blood will poison your little fish." Ye Xi shook his head and said.

At this moment, the man lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes. He was still breathing unevenly just now, but now he could speak.

"Little patriarch..." The man looked at Gu Yantian.

Gu Yantian was happy and walked over quickly: "Uncle, how do you feel when you wake up?"

"It's better, have you asked the doctor to help me treat my illness again? Thank you." The middle-aged man said weakly.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, I still haven't found the antidote to cure you. I'm incompetent." Gu Yantian's handsome face slid down two lines of tears, which made people look at him, and felt particularly distressed.

Ye Xi suddenly realized that Gu Yantian was not that hateful. All he did was to change the fate of the Gu family. How heavy was the burden on his shoulders?

"Don't talk for now, I need to apply acupuncture behind him." Ye Xi didn't expect that his acupuncture would have effect and was also very happy.

"Little patriarch, don't touch me... I will spread it to you." Gu Yantian wanted to reach out, and the man moved back immediately to prevent him from touching him.

Ye Xi was quite moved when he looked at it. The younger generation respected the elders and protected the younger generation. Such excellent traditional virtues continue to play a role.

"Let me do it." Ye Xi didn't pay attention to these things.

"Ye Xi, thank you." Gu Yantian looked at her gratefully.

Ye Xi pursed her lips: "If you really want to thank me, let me go."

Gu Yantian's face instantly became a little melancholy.

Ye Xi knew that he would definitely not let her go, so she had to stop talking and continue to apply needles.

Just after the sixth injection was taken, the middle-aged man suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.

Ye Xi and Gu Yantian were both shocked.

The man vomited blood and fell into a coma.

"Ye Xi, my cousin..."

"I don't know what's going on." Ye Xi frowned, quickly turned the person over, checking his heartbeat.

"The heartbeat is stronger than before, but it's just a temporary shock." Ye Xi didn't dare to go down to treat him.

"Is there really no way?" Gu Yantian's handsome face flashed with despair.

He knew that his cousin's today is his tomorrow, and it would be impossible to die decently.

"Don't be depressed, I'll think of another way." Ye Xi was also confused. She closed her eyes and leaned against the end of the bed, trying hard to find the records about the seeds in Ruben.

However, when she wrote down the rubbings, she realized that the art of removing Gu was impossible to use today, so she turned those three pages directly, and now she really regrets it.

"You have been trying to force the Gu out of your body or kill it in your body, but have you ever thought that the so-called Gu is actually an indispensable part of your Gu family's body?" Ye Xi's eyes opened, and the light in his eyes was shining.
