September, the autumnal air grows thicker.
Yu Changkong, who had lived for over twenty years, was probably never as nervous as today, because this was the day he truly regained his sight, as well as the final day of treatment mentioned by Qin Liuxi.
When the cotton cloth covering his eyes was removed, and his eyes merged with the special eye solution prepared by Qin Liuxi, he felt a cool and refreshing sensation around his eyes, Yu Changkong dare not open his eyes for a moment.
"Sir?" Sifang spoke cautiously.
Yu Changkong’s eyelids trembled, slowly opened, then closed, reopening and repeating the process several times until his eyelashes fluttered open completely.
What appeared before him was a face grinning with self-satisfaction, with thin cheeks and pale skin, not the gentle femininity expected of a girl, but a bit cold and harsh, like himself.
It was strange, why did it feel like himself?
Yet somehow he felt, this face, with her personality, was truly a perfect match.
Qin Liuxi, seeing that Yu Changkong’s eyes were now focusing properly, couldn’t help but raise a hand in greeting, saying, "These are the eyes that befit Mr. Changkong, clear and bright, shining like the morning stars."
Yu Changkong grinned and smirked with a curl of his lips.
Qin Liuxi was momentarily stunned by his look.
A smile from a beauty brings a springtime flourish.
Yu Changkong, truly looked exceedingly handsome.
Chen Pi, seeing his own master almost drooling, couldn’t help but face-palm, clenching his fist and coughing softly.
Yu Changkong came back to his senses, stood up from the chair, walked towards Qin Liuxi, and gave her a deep bow: "Master Buqiu’s medical skills are unparalleled, Changkong expresses his gratitude."
Qin Liuxi waved her hand in a carefree manner: "It’s just you paying the silver and me putting in the effort, not worth mentioning, really."
Sifang hugged Da Qiong, smearing his tears and snot all on him, Da Qiong showing disgust, pushed a bit, but couldn’t shake him off as he clung like an octopus, so just left it be, his eyes just red as he gazed at Yu Changkong.
The young master has finally regained his sight.
"Sir, can you really see everything clearly now?" Uncle Qian choked up and asked.
Yu Changkong looked at him and said, "Uncle Qian, you have aged a lot, these years must have weighed heavily on you."
Uncle Qian stepped forward, hugged him, shaking his head while crying and laughing: "The young master is all grown up, how could this old servant not age? It’s good that you can see, this is truly wonderful, the young mistress resting below would also be at ease."
"Later, I will inform them at their graves," Yu Changkong spoke softly.
Uncle Qian nodded with a smile.
Yu Changkong turned his head and looked at Qin Liuxi, pausing briefly.
"Is Xiao Qin about to leave?"
Qin Liuxi and the others were packing up the medicine box, and upon hearing this, nodded: "You’re all better now, naturally it’s time for us to leave."
All better, meaning she needn’t come over for consultation anymore.
Yu Changkong suddenly felt a bit hollow, "Does this mean my body doesn’t need further treatment? Now that my eyes are healed, what about the rest of my internal organs?"
"While I was treating your eye disease these days, whenever I performed acupuncture, I also helped you adjust your internal organs, and balanced your yin and yang. Otherwise, would your aura have been so good these days? You won’t have trouble falling asleep anymore, nor frequently wake from nightmares, right?"
Yu Changkong paused briefly.
"That’s indeed the case, the young master has been sleeping extremely well lately, I thought it was because of the medicinal soup," Sifang said.
Yu Changkong glanced at Sifang, no need for your comments.
Qin Liuxi continued, "Acupuncture is effective, and so are herbal medicines. They do not only treat your eye condition but also serve additional purposes. Balancing yin and yang is the most crucial one."
"So it is," Yu Changkong thought for a moment and then pointed to his eyes, saying, "I can see clearly now, but will I still see those things?"
"If you’re feeling alright, would you like to walk with me in the streets? If it becomes unbearable, I can seal it again."
This was exactly what Yu Changkong was waiting for, and he replied, "Alright."
Just as the group was about to walk outside, Qin Liuxi exclaimed. Standing under the eaves, she watched a paper crane fly towards them.
"Sir, sir, it’s a message from Qingping Temple," Sifang, with his sharp eyes, recognized the paper crane immediately.
Only Qingping Temple could have a paper crane fly as if it were real.
Yu Changkong immediately looked and, with a slight movement of his fingers — though he had imagined this method of communication before, seeing a yellow paper crane flying towards him truly shocked him.
Mystical Technique, indeed profound.
Qin Liuxi stretched out her hand, and the paper crane landed still in her palm. She unfolded the crane and saw it was a call for help from Qing Yuan.
Hurry to the temple, otherwise, Qingping Temple will be razed by the Little Overlord you brought here.
Besides the words, there was also a drawing of a small crying figure.
Qin Liuxi didn’t react at first but then suddenly thought of something and said to Yu Changkong, "Mu Xi, that Little Overlord, is in Shangqing Temple. Qing Yuan is having a tough time, I need to go. Your eyes..."
"Let’s go together," Yu Changkong immediately said. "Either way, I can see everywhere. It doesn’t matter if it’s on the streets; I can also accompany you."
"That’s also true, but if you don’t want to go, I can summon a few for you to witness," said Qin Liuxi with a smile.
Yu Changkong, in a reserved manner, replied, "Perhaps it’s better to proceed step by step."
"You’ll find out that my way of summoning is a better step-by-step approach," Qin Liuxi said with a meaningful tone.
Yu Changkong had Da Qiong go and prepare a carriage. Just as he stepped out and was about to board the carriage, he was suddenly bumped into by two little ghosts. His instinct was to dodge, but the two children passed right through his body, their soul bodies dispersing.
Yu Changkong froze, looking up at the corner of the opposite house, where a male ghost with its intestines hanging out was lying prone. It stiffly turned its head to look at him, eyes gleaming as if seeing minced meat.
Such a beautiful shell.
The intestines-dragging male ghost immediately drifted over. Before it could get close to the carriage, Qin Liuxi inside the carriage coughed and poked her head out.
Seeing Liu Xi was like seeing the Evil God, and it vanished instantly.
Yu Changkong swallowed his saliva and looked towards Qin Liuxi, who was giving him a half-smiling look. "Come onboard. With me here, they won’t dare come close."
Yu Changkong stepped into the carriage and sat down elegantly, straightening his robe, and asked, "Will they also possess me?"
Yu Changkong shook his head. "Not scared, just unpleasant."
"Those with Royal Energy within them, evil spirits dare not come close; those protected by Merit Golden Light are also impervious to all evils. There’s one more type, those scarier than ghosts, such as fierce demons. Even ghosts steer clear of them. You...," Qin Liuxi said, "your physical body is weak, and you were blind for ten years, typically you’d be easily possessed. Yet, I observe you clean and uninvaded by yin evil energy, either you carry a Magic Artifact, or it’s in your Life Chart."
"My Life Chart?" Yu Changkong asked, "Haven’t you used Taisu Pulse Method?"
Qin Liuxi nodded, "I haven’t, nor do I plan to, because I also can’t fully comprehend it."
Thus, she was truly curious, she was so clever, yet she couldn’t fully understand what his Life Chart was hiding!
