Chapter 37: Transitioning Qi
All the noise was slowly fading away. Bai Yue could even feel a hint of blood in her mouth. She was beginning to feel drowsy when she suddenly heard something different.
Someone is coming, is someone coming, who?
Jian Yu quickly returned to Yanming Villa, dismounted, and rushed in immediately without even having time to hand the horse over to the boy who came to meet him.
But Bai Yue was not in the room, and the guard was a little uneasy. “Ms. Bai couldn’t sleep and wanted to relax. She went to the lake alone and she didn’t let us follow…”
When Jian Yu heard this, he almost exploded. Without saying a word, he used Qing Kung and jumped away. Behind him, Liang Meng and Lin Yi hurriedly followed without knowing what was going on. The guards behind him could only run after them.
There was no one around Yanming Lake. Jian Yu felt a thump in his heart. He rushed to the lake and saw a black figure in the lake. He pulled the cloak away with his right hand and threw it aside, and the person had already jumped in.
Bai Yue had lost the strength to struggle, and suddenly she seemed to see a face in the dimness. Whose face was it, Jian Yu?
Why Jian Yu? When I was dying, I would actually see him. I was really crazy…
Bai Yue opened her mouth and spit out a string of bubbles. She could no longer feel the smell of blood, or in other words, she couldn’t feel anything now, and her limbs were about to freeze into ice.
But the Jian Yu opposite her turned out not to be an illusion. The next moment, Bai Yue’s arm was firmly grasped and pulled forward. One hand pinched her chin. Jian Yu leaned forward and breathed into Bai Yue’s mouth, exerting force at the same time, the whole person rose into the air.
There was a crash and two bodies of water vapor fell to the ground, and everyone was stunned.
“What’s going on, what’s going on?” Liang Meng rushed in front of him, looking at the scene in front of him, he didn’t know how to react.
Jian Yu didn’t have time to speak at all, so he quickly turned Bai Yue around, lying on his lap, stretched out his hand and patted her hard on the back. While patting, he called out, “Bai Yue, Bai Yue, wake up…”
Finally, Bai Yue coughed lowly and then spit out a mouthful of water.
Bai Yue’s cough sounded like nature to Jian Yu. His tense body finally relaxed, he took a breath, and then patted her back.
Bai Yue spit out several more times, until she couldn’t cough anything up, and then she gasped for air.
Jian Yu quickly turned her around, only to see that there was no blood on Bai Yue’s face at this time and her eyes were closed tightly. Although she coughed up water just now, she was not awake and was muttering something.
The sound was too soft to hear clearly. Jian Yu immediately put his ear to it and managed to hear it.
Bai Yue was talking about cold, cold… cold… Her lips were white, her face was blue, and the clothes on her body were almost covered with ice debris. She was a bit colder than the survivors who were dug out of the snowman that day.
“Miss Bai is freezing.” Liang Meng said anxiously, “Master, go back to your room quickly. It’s warm in the room.”
Jian Yu responded, immediately picked up Bai Yue and walked back quickly.
There was a heater in the room, and Peiqi got up. She was sleeping soundly. She was almost frightened to death when she heard the news, and she started crying immediately.
“Stop crying, change your clothes quickly, and wipe the water from your hair.” Jian Yu said, “Liang Meng, go ask the doctor.”
There was no intimacy between men and women, so Jian Yu put down Bai Yue and then left, letting the maid change her clothes and wipe herself.
Jian Yu walked out of the room, his face gloomy, “Bai Yue will never jump into the pond by herself, and there is no way she will slip and someone wants to harm her.”
Liang Meng was excited and suddenly thought of one thing, “Could it be…”
As he spoke, he pointed to his clothes.
Jian Yu understood what he meant. The reason why Bai Yue was pushed into the pond was because she was wearing that red dress?
“The house is on heightened alert. Bai Yue will know everything when she wakes up.” Jian Yu raised his hand and pulled off his wet clothes, walked into the screen and put on dry clothes, and then came out again, moving very quickly.
Liang Meng handed Jian Yu another robe and said, “There are only two outsiders in Yanming Villa now, no, three.”
The unconscious victim, Dr. Li, and the witness Wang Kan.
“It may not be three, there are dozens of servants in Yanming Villa. We come here once a year, how can we guarantee that there will be no problem for everyone.” Jian Yu looked at everyone at this time and doubted “Baiyue’s courtyard has been replaced by the clothes we brought” Yes, no one else is allowed to come near.”
Liang Meng responded quickly.
At this time, Bai Yue had her wet clothes changed into dry clothes, and was stuffed into the quilt by the maid.
Dr. Li was awakened in the middle of the night and hurried over. After checking her pulse, he was very nervous.
Jian Yu changed his clothes and hurried over. When he saw Doctor Li’s expression, he hurriedly said, “Doctor, something is wrong. Why isn’t she awake?”
“Master Jian.” Dr. Li cupped his hands, “It’s okay to drown. The main reason is hypothermia. In this ice and snow, and being soaked in cold water, let alone a weak woman, even a strong man can’t bear it.”
“Then what should we do?” Jian Yu touched Bai Yue’s face. It was indeed cold and ice-cold. Even in a warm room, he did not feel relieved.
“Miss is not awake at this time. She is so cold that her whole body is paralyzed, and her hands, feet, and limbs are all stiff.” Doctor Li said, “Usually the native method in our village is to fight poison with poison, and rub the whole body with snow until the skin turns red and hairy. Only when it is hot can it be relieved.”
Jian Yu knew this method. He was not a pampered young man. As the minister of Dali Temple, he had experienced many life and death situations. He had even been in the army in the early years and knew a lot of various folk methods.
“But how can Bai Yue, a girl, bear it?” Jian Yu couldn’t bear it. “Doctor Li, is there a gentler way?”
It is already frozen, so rubbing it with cold snow is an effective method, but it often damages the skin and makes you suffer for a long time afterwards.
Doctor Li thought for a while, “As long as it can warm up the body, it will be fine. If there is internal power…”
After all, Bai Yue doesn’t know martial arts, so she doesn’t have any internal strength.
Survival is the most important thing, put everything else aside, even if the skin on your body is broken, just survive and slowly recover.
At that moment, Peiqi said, “Slave, go bring the snow in.”
Liang Meng quickly said, “I’m going to help.”
The two of them hurriedly ran out while talking, and Jian Yu suddenly said, “Wait a minute.”
Everyone stopped and looked back at him.
“It doesn’t have to be like that.” Jian Yu confirmed with the doctor again, “As long as she warms up, that’ll be fine?”
“Yes, but it needs to be quick, and we can’t delay it any longer. If we delay it any longer, even if we can wake up, our hands, feet, and limbs will probably become useless.”
“Okay, I understand.” Jian Yu said, “You all can go out.”
“Huh?” Everyone was stunned.
“I told you to get out.” Jian Yu said seriously, “Close the door. Peiqi will go prepare ginger soup and food. Liang Meng and the doctor will go and prescribe prescriptions and get medicine.”
