Lei Tongtong looked adorable with her widened eyes. Miao Zhizhi could not help but chuckle when she saw the young girl’s appearance. Her hands felt tingly, wanting to pinch the girl’s cheeks.
‘Gah, she’s so cute!! However, Miao Zhizhi calmed herself.
Meanwhile, the corners of Su Binglan’s lips curled up slightly. On the other hand, Gongsun Mo’s ears turned red when he heard that. Although he was Lei Tongtongs husband, she was still young, and the couple had always maintained their etiquette.
Gongsun MO also loved and respected Lei Tongtong. Therefore, the couple always slept with their clothes on. Lei Tongtong had never been undressed in front of Gongsun MO, either.
She returned to her senses, blinked, and asked, ‘Y-You want me to remove my shirt?”
Lei Tongtong was wearing something underneath. Although she was talking to Su Binglan, she quickly glanced at Gongsun Mo. She met his gaze, and her face instantly turned red. Then she quickly lowered her head and stopped looking at Gongsun Mo.
Although she did not seem innocent, she still understood the necessary things. Su Binglan looked at her and thought she was adorable.
‘No wonder MO cares so much about her. Indeed, Tongtong is very likable.’
Even Su Binglan looked at her joyfully. Then she feigned seriousness, saying, “Of course. I’ll be injecting you, but don’t be shy. Besides your husband, only me and Aunt Zhizhi are here. We’re women too, after all.’
Lei Tongtong felt Su Binglan’s words were reasonable but still thought something was amiss. However, she could not think of what it was. She also knew Su Binglan was doing this for her own good and wanted to cure her. Therefore, she had to listen to Su Binglan’s instructions.
Soon after, Lei Tongtong undid the straps on her outerwear. Her face instantly turned red.
Su Binglan felt people of this era were highly conservative. Moreover, Lei Tongtong was wearing something more than modern undergarments underneath. No one could see anything besides her collarbones.
Su Binglan and Miao Zhizhi did not look at Gongsun Mo’s expression. Only Lei Tongtong did because she was shy.
Gongsun MO wanted to feign ignorance, but his attention remained on his wife. He could feel her gaze and was worried she would be afraid of the procedure.
He followed Lei Tongtongs gaze and saw her exposed shoulder and collarbone. Then his gaze shifted to her flushed cheeks and misty eyes, his eyes skipping a beat.
‘She has grown up.’ Gongsun MO had an indescribable feeling in his heart. He knew he had to get well quickly. After all, he could only protect her better by becoming stronger.
Su Binglan’s fingers moved quickly after Lei Tongtong lay down, and a row of silver needles pierced into some of the young girl’s acupuncture points. Lei Tongtong felt no pain because of Su Binglan’s swift actions.
She looked at the young girl, saying, “Breathe slowly and relax your body.” Lei Tongtong listened to Su Binglan and did as she said. Then Su Binglan placed her prepared basin by the bed and started burning a few medicinal herbs, causing its fragrance to waft.
Miao Zhizhi was shocked when she saw one of the herbs. “That’s the Miao Tribe’s Silver Grass! That herb is unique to my tribe and is poisonous. Are you sure you can burn it like this?”
The mountains of the Miao Tribe were hazy all year round, and the plants that could grow in the haze would become poisonous. Silver Grass was highly toxic.
The Miao Tribe knew how to mix poison with Silver Grass but had never heard of anyone burning it as Su Binglan had. Miao Zhizhi wondered what other special effects Silver Grass could have when her niece burned them alongside medicinal herbs.
Su Binglan quickly made a small incision on Lei Tongtongs arm, then stared at the hole. Then she explained to Miao Zhizhi, “The smell of Silver Grass and two other herbs burning together can lure out Gu worms. It’s more tempting than human blood.’
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, a tiny centipede jumped toward the basin. However, Su Binglan instantly stretched her hand and grabbed it. This scene made Miao Zhizhi’s heart pound.
“These Gu worms are highly dangerous! How did you catch it with your hand?!”
“We’ll kill it soon enough.” Su Binglan’s hand emitted a blue aura that could control the Gu and paralyze it. She played with it for a while and said, “It’s willing to be helpful. I can find some clues, so I’ll keep it for now.”
Her fingers moved, and the blue aura wrapped around the Gu like a cocoon, paralyzing it. Then she placed it in a special box.
Meanwhile, Gongsun Mo’s face turned pale when he saw Su Binglan’s actions. Lei Tongtongs eyes widened. She was so frightened that she wanted to yell but held it back. She did not want her husband to worry.
Even Miao Zhizhi’s heart was in her throat. However, she quickly returned to her senses and said, “You’re so awesome, Binglan.’!
Miao Zhizhi always thought her niece was more powerful than her mother. Her mother was the Miao Tribe’s chief, but she had never seen her mother use such methods to control or extract Gu worms.
Su Binglan recalled some things from her memories but did not know how to tell her aunt. She said, “If you have any questions, you can ask me.” Even though Miao Zhizhi had left her tribe, she still retained her identity. She thought perhaps one day, she would need to return to her tribe to settle things. After all, she could only protect herself by being strong enough.
Therefore, Su Binglan felt she could teach Miao Zhizhi some things. That way, the latter could protect herself, and no one would have to worry about her.
Miao Zhizhi was Su Binglan’s aunt, no matter what. Since they were family, Su Binglan would not be stingy with her knowledge.
“All right.” Miao Zhizhi nodded. Then she seemed to have thought of something and said, “My tribe used to have plenty of secrets in the past, but it experienced civil war and strife. Later, the tribe’s secrets went missing.
“Those were the secrets our first-generation ancestors left behind. We also had portraits of them—I heard they were gorgeous. Now the tribe no longer has those portraits.”
Su Binglan raised her eyebrows when she heard these words. She remembered Shen Mohen saying the Legendary Medicine Valley had also lost some of its ancestral secrets and information.
However, they lost their acupuncture secrets in a fire. Shen Mohen also said that the Legendary Medicine Valleys first ancestor was a woman. Therefore, Su Binglan wondered if it was all a coincidence.
Lights and shadows flashed through her mind, but they quickly dissipated. Su Binglan had some suspicions about them..
