Chapter 171 Strange Patterns
"Silly Qiuqin, I'm really fine. It's just some minor superficial injuries. Have you forgotten my superb medical skills? Injuries like this are a piece of cake for me!"
As Dongfang Wan'er spoke, she gently stroked Qiuqin's head, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: This child is really a good-hearted person!
Immediately afterwards, she turned to An Ye and said, "An Ye, quickly carry Ye Jiuchen back to his room so I can give him a good look!"
"Yes, Your Highness!" An Ye replied, then carefully picked up Ye Jiu Chen and carried him towards the room.
Dongfang Wan'er, supported by Qiuqin, followed slowly behind.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, Dongfang Wan'er abruptly stopped, turned back to look at Chu Lian lying on the ground, and sighed helplessly, "Alas... you're lucky to have escaped with your life. An Ye, arrange for someone to carry this Crown Prince of Chu into the room as well. Saving his life is the priority; after all, he'll be of great use in the future!" With that, Dongfang Wan'er continued walking towards Ye Jiuchen's room.
"Yes!"
An Ye nodded to An Yi, who then hoisted Chu Lian onto his shoulder and headed towards the room!
Before long, everyone arrived at Ye Jiuchen's bedside. Dongfang Wan'er bent down and carefully examined his physical condition.
She quickly noticed that Ye Jiuchen was soaked in sweat. So she hurriedly ordered, "An Ye, quickly fetch a basin of hot water!"
Not long after, An Ye came in carrying a basin of steaming water and said respectfully, "Your Highness, the water is ready."
"Okay, put it here, I'll do it!"
Dongfang Wan'er gently soaked the towel in the basin of water, then carefully wrung it out and began to gently wipe Ye Jiuchen's body.
"Dark Night, look, what are these markings on his body!"
Dongfang Wan'er suddenly stopped what she was doing and pointed in surprise at the strange patterns on Ye Jiuchen's body.
She remembered that Ye Jiuchen didn't have these strange markings on his body before. Now the markings on his face have disappeared, but more have appeared on his body.
"I don't know either. After Master went mad, he became completely insane and behaved abnormally. Fortunately, he still recognized me, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable." An Ye frowned, recalling the scene at that time.
"Oh? And then what happened?" Dongfang Wan'er pressed.
"If it weren't for my timely intervention, Master might have already stormed into the palace and started a massacre!" An Ye replied with a serious expression.
"Yes, thankfully you stopped him." Dongfang Wan'er nodded in agreement. If Ye Jiuchen had really stormed into the palace, things would have become much more complicated and uncontrollable.
Dongfang Wan'er continued to study the patterns on Ye Jiuchen's body, trying to find some clues or explanations.
However, after careful observation, she still found nothing. In the end, she had no choice but to give up and temporarily put the mystery aside.
Dongfang Wan'er frowned and began to take Ye Jiuchen's pulse! Ye Jiuchen's pulse was very disordered and his breathing was also very unstable, which was indeed the appearance of being possessed by a demon.
"Has Ye Jiuchen gone mad with demonic possession?" Dongfang Wan'er confirmed!
Ye Jiuchen's body seemed to be in a state of extreme chaos, with unstable breathing and a violent and irregular pulse.
"How could he have gone into qi deviation during his seclusion?" Dongfang Wan'er couldn't understand the reason at all. Could it be that something went wrong during his cultivation? Or was he disturbed by external factors? Countless questions flooded her mind, making her increasingly worried about Ye Jiuchen's condition.
Luckily I came to check today, otherwise I really don't know what would have happened. Thinking of this, Dongfang Wan'er secretly rejoiced. She decided to take immediate action to help Ye Jiuchen return to normal.
"Dark Night, you can't keep anything from me anymore. The more people who know, the more solutions we have!" Dongfang Wan'er said seriously.
An Ye lowered his head, his face full of guilt: "This subordinate doesn't know why Master suddenly went mad! By the time this subordinate discovered it, it was too late!"
He was filled with regret. If he had noticed Ye Jiuchen's unusual behavior sooner, he might have been able to avoid this crisis.
"Qiuqin, Anye, you may leave now. I need to administer acupuncture to Ye Jiuchen," Dongfang Wan'er said calmly, taking a deep breath.
Qiuqin and Anye exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Your Highness!" Knowing it was not the right time to disturb them, they quietly left the room and gently closed the door behind them.
After the two left, Dongfang Wan'er gently took Ye Jiuchen's hand, her gaze firm yet tender. She closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and with a thought, brought Ye Jiuchen into the space with her.
After entering the space!
Dongfang Wan'er carefully placed Ye Jiuchen on the MRI machine, pressed the start button, and the machine began to hum.
The screen displayed images and data of various parts of Ye Jiuchen's body. She carefully examined each indicator, hoping to find the cause of his illness. After a comprehensive examination, the results finally came out.
Looking at the report in her hand, Dongfang Wan'er frowned: "Ye Jiuchen doesn't have any obvious organic lesions throughout his body, but the brain structure diagram shows some abnormalities."
Dongfang Wan'er muttered to herself, "Could it be a mental issue? But I'm not good at that..."
Dongfang Wan'er fell into deep thought, her mind replaying Ye Jiuchen's previous behavior.
Suddenly, a possibility occurred to her: "It seems that Ye Jiuchen's brain has experienced some kind of disorder, leading to him developing a split personality. But this is just my guess; further verification is needed."
With this in mind, Dongfang Wan'er decided to seek answers from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine. She first brought Ye Jiuchen out of the space, then took out a thin silver needle and gently pricked his acupoints a few times to observe his reaction.
As the silver needles stimulated him, Ye Jiuchen's body trembled slightly, but there were no other abnormalities.
Next, Dongfang Wan'er took out some herbs, which she had carefully selected, as they had the effect of soothing nerves and regulating qi and blood.
She crushed the herbs to make an ointment, then carefully applied it to Ye Jiuchen's forehead and neck, hoping to help relieve his symptoms.
"Fortunately, there are still Tian Shan snow lotus flowers. I'll cultivate more seeds! Combined with some calming medicinal herbs, it can temporarily suppress Ye Jiuchen's disordered pulse!"
Dongfang Wan'er carefully preserved the Tian Shan snow lotus seed in a jade box. She knew the seed's preciousness; it represented hope and the continuation of life.
Dongfang Wan'er then quietly observed Ye Jiuchen's reaction. After a while, Ye Jiuchen's breathing gradually calmed down, and his complexion became rosier.
"I hope this time it will be effective..." Dongfang Wan'er murmured to herself. She knew that completely curing Ye Jiuchen's injuries would not be easy, but as long as she could stabilize his condition, it would already be an important breakthrough.
"An Ye, Qiu Qin, you can come in now!" Dongfang Wan'er called out to the door.
Qiuqin and Anye pushed open the door and entered, their eyes immediately falling on Ye Jiuchen lying on the bed.
Seeing that Ye Jiuchen's complexion had improved, both of them showed a hint of joy.
"Your Highness, what about Master?" An Ye looked at Ye Jiu Chen on the bed, her tone full of concern.
"Ye Jiuchen's condition has stabilized for now... I'll come check on him again tomorrow," Dongfang Wan'er said, her voice tinged with weariness.
Qiuqin noticed that Dongfang Wan'er was unwell and quickly stepped forward to support her. "Miss!" Qiuqin's voice was full of worry.
Dongfang Wan'er gently shook her head, trying to cheer herself up. "I'm fine, just a little tired."
"princess!"
An Ye approached with a worried expression and asked softly, "Are you alright? If Master wakes up and sees you in such distress, he will surely be heartbroken. I hope Master recovers soon!"
"I'm fine, just a little tired. Qiuqin, let's go back and rest. An Ye, please take care of Ye Jiuchen!"
Dongfang Wan'er forced herself to get up and gave him some instructions.
"Yes, Your Highness, please rest assured!"
Dark Night nodded respectfully in response.
"By the way, this is a prescription for the Crown Prince of Chu. Get the medicine according to the dosage on it. He suffered serious internal and external injuries. This prescription is for internal use, and this one is for treating the external injuries."
