Faced with Yi Xiaoyan's joke, Jack was first stunned before he smiled and said, "How is that possible? Don't joke with me. This joke isn't funny at all!"
Yi Xiaoyan smiled when she saw Jack's expression. "Then I'll be going in. You wait outside!" As he spoke, he glanced at Yukiko, then at the two of them before walking in.
As soon as he walked into the room, he smelled the scent of herbs. Yi Xiaoyan was immediately brought out of the room. Jack watched as Yi Xiaoyan ran out and said gloomily, "What's wrong with you?"
"Damn, how many herbs did you guys use? The whole room is filled with that smell, do you want to kill me?" Yi Xiaoyan coughed several times and said.
The smell of Ji Zi's body being smoked out was simply too unpleasant. Even someone like Yi Xiaoyan, who came out from a pile of herbs, couldn't stand it, much less someone like Ji Zi, who was not very familiar with herbs in the first place.
"En, please be merciful. Our boss has been ill recently, so his temper is a little bad. Therefore, you should take more responsibility. We will never be stingy with the compensation. You can rest assured!" Jack bit hard on the final payment.
Yi Xiaoyan knew that the reward he was talking about was mainly in the 'Classic of the Blue Sack'. He had put in a lot of effort into it, so he couldn't just let it go for nothing.
"You are ruthless!" Yi Xiaoyan patted Jack and said, "Yukiko, if you don't want to go in, then don't. I'll just go in!"
"Forget it, it's better if the two of us enter together!" Ji Zi glanced at Yi Xiaoyan helplessly. The two of them looked as if they had lost all will to die.
Anyone who hadn't smelled the room definitely wouldn't know how unbearable it was. Yi Xiaoyan walked in and asked, "Is the person inside the room the boss of Waving Slowly?"
"You are Yi Xiaoyan?" Lying on the bed, a person turned to look at Yi Xiaoyan and said, "I'm the boss of Waving Slowly, Duan Jie!"
Yi Xiaoyan glanced at Duan Jie and her heart skipped a beat. Duan Jie's entire body was wrinkled, just like an old lady. Her hair had all fallen off and she looked like an ape man.
"Oh my god!" Ji Zi could not help but hold Yi Xiaoyan's hand. This kind of face was too frightening. He had never seen such a person before!
Yukiko smiled and patted Yukiko's shoulder. "Open the door. The smell is really bad. Just wait outside. He and I have a little to talk about!"
Ji Zi nodded and said to Yi Xiaoyan, "Nan, you have to be careful yourself!"
Yi Xiaoyan nodded and walked over to Duan Jie's bedside to look at her. It wasn't that she hadn't seen this kind of illness before, but it was just that it was so rare to see such a curse here!
Looking at Ji walking out, Yi Xiaoyan asked Duan Jie, "How old are you? Twenty or thirty years old?"
Duan Jie smiled at Yi Xiaoyan and said, "I happen to be 23 years old today. I look terrifying, but you don't look that surprised!"
"Before I came here, I thought about what you look like after meeting you, so I'm not that surprised. It's very common!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "Besides, you're the same age as me!"
"Is that so? Can you help me sit up?" Duan Jie saw Yi Xiaoyan's faint smile. He hadn't smiled much before, and this illness had been on her body for far too long. Not only was her appearance ruined, her body was also weakening day by day.
Yi Xiaoyan looked at Duan Jie and said, "Your body is very cold, so you shouldn't be too active at this time. Don't worry, I'll find a way to cure your illness!"
"Really?" Duan Jie looked at Yi Xiaoyan excitedly, "Is there really a way to cure it?"
"I've never gone back on my word!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "However, your current appearance is rather difficult to deal with. We have to start from the beginning!"
"What's wrong?" Duan Jie excitedly looked at Yi Xiaoyan as she involuntarily grabbed her hand and said.
"You've taken too many potions previously, how weak have you become? I'll concoct a new potion for you and force the poison out of your body first!" Yi Xiaoyan looked at Duan Jie and said, "You were invited by those quack doctors to treat your illness!"
Duan Jie frowned and said, "Those aren't mediocre doctors. They were invited by local godly doctors as far as we know. But after they saw my appearance, they were all scared half to death, not to mention treating my illness, it didn't have any effect at all!"
Yi Xiaoyan smiled. "Whatever. Where's your pharmacy? I'll go prepare the treatment. What time do you get chills?"
"The nine o'clock in the morning and the four o'clock in the afternoon. However, my body has been feeling cold all day and I haven't stopped!" Duan Jie looked at Yi Xiaoyan and said, "You really can cure my illness. You don't even have a pulse!"
"You must be Chinese!" Yi Xiaoyan said as she looked at Duan Jie with a smile.
"You can see it!" Duan Jie spoke fluently in Chinese. Even if she was not Chinese, she could be considered half Chinese. How could a foreigner speak so fluently?
"Traditional Chinese medicine just looks and asks, only after you have cut the last place can you take the pulse without being able to see the cause of it. Your face and head are all there, can I not tell what's wrong?" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "To be exact, this isn't an illness!"
"Not sick?" Duan Jie looked at Yi Xiaoyan and said, "If he's not sick, then what is this? Did he have his spell tested?"
"To put it more seriously, someone did indeed cast a spell!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "You've been set up by someone!"
"Can you explain it more clearly?" Although there was no difference between frowning and not frowning, he could still tell that she was frowning.
"You were poisoned by someone and this poison was stored in your body to eat the nourishment that your skin and hair absorbed. As a result, you became a person who was neither human nor ghost!" Yi Xiaoyan said flatly.
"Gu?" Although Duan Jie had turned into this, he was not stupid and reacted immediately. "You mean, someone drugged me?"
"Exactly!" Yi Xiaoyan nodded and said, "Only a Gu can turn a person into this. Your mind has always been good, but your body is extremely cold, and with the aging of your skin and the shedding of your hair, this was caused by someone using a Gu. I can use medicine and acupuncture to force that bug out of your body, you'll understand when the time comes!"
"No wonder no other doctors could find out where my illness originated from. It turned out to be here!" A trace of killing intent flashed across Duan Jie's eyes and she said, "Who could cause me to become like this?"
Yi Xiaoyan looked at Duan Jie from beside the bed and said, "Besides, I can only tell the outside world that I can try. I can't say that I can cure you, and the better you are, the weaker your act must be, otherwise I'm afraid of being manipulated!"
"You know that the binding force on your gang members is no longer as strong as before. Even if there are still people loyal to you, there are still people who dare to harm you!" Yi Xiaoyan looked into Duan Jie's eyes and said, "You know what I mean!"
"I know!" There was a medicinal smell to Duan Jie's words. Yi Xiaoyan frowned and said, "Your skin and hair can be restored to how they were in the past. I'd like to see what you looked like in the past!"
"Ever since my illness, I've torn up all my photos. Once you've cured them, I'll naturally be able to see my previous appearance!" Duan Jie looked at Yi Xiaoyan and said.
"That's not far!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "Besides, apart from the soup I've brought myself recently, you're not allowed to take anyone's medicine. All the previous medicines have been broken!"
"Got it!" Duan Jie didn't know why, but after seeing Yi Xiaoyan's confidence, she couldn't help but believe in him as if she trusted him completely. However, the two of them had only known each other for a few minutes.
"Did Jack bring you here?" Duan Jie asked Yi Xiaoyan. Duan Jie had always been in good spirits, but because of this appearance, he could not casually reveal it in front of others. That was why his control over his own subordinates was getting weaker and weaker.
"Yes, how is this man?" Yi Xiaoyan looked at Duan Jie and said, "I don't know if those people should be trusted, so I didn't trust them at all!"
"You can trust Fang Lulu and Jack 100%. As for the others, once I've recovered, I'll have a way to find out!" Duan Jie looked at Yi Xiaoyan and said confidently.
"You're really spirited!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "This illness of yours is not something that can be cured in a day or two. It will take at least half a year!"
"Such a long time!" Duan Jie frowned as she looked at Yi Xiaoyan in disbelief.
"Let me ask you, how long does it take for you to grow from bald to shoulder-length?" Yi Xiaoyan asked as she sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Duan Jie.
"About three months!" Duan Jie thought for a while and said. Normally, his hair would only grow for three months or so.
"The potion I made for you will take one month, which means that one month plus three months is equivalent to four months. In addition, you'll need about half a year to get used to the effects of the potion!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled and said, "The most important thing is reconciliation. Not only does it cure illnesses, but it also strengthens the foundation for cultivation!"
"Then the medicine you gave me would be more overbearing. I know you can do it!" Duan Jie had been a doctor for a long time and knew of these medical principles. As long as he increased the dosage, he would be able to recover quickly. However, he would also need to stimulate the potential in his body.
"I'm learning to treat people, not to destroy their bodies!" Yi Xiaoyan looked at Duan Jie and said, "Don't insult my profession. When word gets out, others will scold me by pointing fingers at my nose!"
"You!" Duan Jie was furious that Yi Xiaoyan did not listen to him. Even when he was sick, everyone was still submissive in front of him. This was the first time someone dared to resist him in front of him.
"Don't challenge my dignity!" Yi Xiaoyan smiled at Duan Jie and said, "I'm confident that I can turn you back into your original form and make you worse than you are now. I'll treat you according to my preferences. If you don't like me, you can leave, but you can't change my mind!"
Yi Xiaoyan and Duan Jie looked at each other and said, "I'm an irresistible existence!"
Duan Jie's heart sank. She was familiar with Yi Xiaoyan's domineering gaze. It was the same look her father used to give her when he was still looking at her!
