Ye Tian smiled and took out his phone to take a picture of her. "Post on Moments, I saw a living mummy."
Bai Bing pouted, "Don't be annoying, you're not allowed to post it."
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Ye Tian opened it and saw Du Meilun.
Du Meilun smiled, "Xiao Ye, you're here."
Ye Tian replied, "Auntie, I've already bandaged Bai Bing. I'll brew some medicine later."
Du Meilun quickly asked, "Xiao Ye, how long will Xiao Bing take to recover?"
Ye Tian said, "The nerve damage is almost healed. With a little treatment, she'll recover. As for the burns, about three days."
He went to the place for decocting medicine, prepared the medicine, and then, every hour, had Bai Bing drink half a bowl through a straw.
That night, he didn't leave and kept brewing medicine.
By the next morning, Bai Bing suddenly said her face was very itchy. Ye Tian told her that itching meant it was effective and asked her to bear with it.
The next morning, Ye Tian brewed more medicine and asked Du Meilun to give it to her every hour and a half. Then he left, saying he would come back in the evening.
Not long ago, Cheng Baoyi called and said that Jiang Ningning's boyfriend, Shen Jian, would come to their house for lunch. She asked Ye Tian to go and take a look.
When he returned to the Jiang family, the person named Shen Jian was already sitting in the living room. Shen Jian was less than twenty years old, with long hair. He was somewhat presentable, but far from handsome or dashing.
After greeting them, Ye Tian secretly observed. He noticed that Shen Jian sat and stood improperly, looking like a petty hooligan. His eyes darted around, and his spirit seemed unsettled. Moreover, Shen Jian looked weak, with a sallow complexion and slightly yellow eyes.
Jiang Ningning asked, "Cousin, don't you know medicine? Can you take a look at Shen Jian? He hasn't been feeling well lately."
Ye Tian said, "People who raise gu are either sick or poor, and they generally don't have a good end. Am I right?" He looked at Shen Jian.
Shen Jian was startled and suddenly stood up, staring intently at Ye Tian.
Ye Tian said, "I'll give you one chance. If you remove the love gu, I'll give you a way out. Otherwise, I'll make you wish you were dead, but unable to die!"
Cheng Baoyi hadn't expected Ye Tian to get straight to the point and reveal his purpose.
Shen Jian panicked and said, "Don't do anything rash, or none of us will have a good time..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his head and collapsed to his knees.
Ye Tian walked up to him, his eyes filled with ferocity, "Do you think I'm just playing around?"
Shen Jian felt an unprecedented pressure and shouted, "I'll remove it, I'll remove it!"
He made a strange sound, barely audible to the human ear. Then, a small pink worm, about the size of a mung bean, crawled out of Jiang Ningning's nose.
Ye Tian reached out and pinched the worm, putting it into a small bottle. Then he said coldly, "Tell me, why did you put the gu on Jiang Ningning?"
Shen Jian lowered his head, "I like her, but she doesn't fancy me, so I had no choice but to..."
"Nonsense! This gu sucks human essence and blood, don't you know that?"
Shen Jian trembled all over, "Brother, I was wrong, please let me off."
Ye Tian said, "Let your elder come."
He understood that this kid had no ability to control the gu; there must be an expert behind him.
Shen Jian was so anxious he was about to cry, "You can't call them, my mother's gu is more ferocious."
Ye Tian said, "It's okay if you don't call your elder, I'll have someone arrest you and lock you up in a dark, sunless place."
Shen Jian's eyes darted around and he said, "Okay, I'll call right away."
At this time, Jiang Ningning felt weak and sat on the sofa listlessly. Ye Tian massaged her a few times, using his true qi to help her unblock her meridians.
After a while, Jiang Ningning spat out some green viscous fluid and then fell into a deep sleep.
Cheng Baoyi was very worried, "Xiao Tian, is Ningning okay?"
Ye Tian said, "She's fine. She'll be alright after a good sleep."
After speaking, he looked at Shen Jian and said coldly, "You'd better not play any tricks in front of me. Honestly, call your parents!"
Shen Jian, who was still fumbling for his phone, trembled and dialed a number. "Mom, I've gotten into trouble. Come and save me quickly." Then he gave the address.
