“Take off your coat. I’m going to take a look at your wound.” Feng Jiu motioned to him.
Gu Xiangyi paused and glanced at her hesitantly. “Ghost Doctor, I have a somewhat scary wound.” She was a woman, after all, and he thought it was best not to frighten her.
Feng Jiu couldn’t help laughing. “A scary wound? It doesn’t matter, I haven’t met a wound that scares me.”
Patriarch Gu who sat next to him couldn’t help saying, “Ghost Doctor is a physician. What kind of wounds has she not seen before? Come on, let me take your coat off. He was worried that his son could not move his right hand to take off his coat.
“No, I’ll do it myself.”
He refused his father’s help. He unfastened his belt and took off his coat. It was easier to remove the coat, but it was not that easy to take off the inner clothing. Moreover, his forehead was already drenched with sweat by this simple action.
Seeing this, Feng Jiu told Leng Shuang. “Leng Shuang, help him take off his clothes. Remove the binding also.”
“Yes.” Leng Shuang replied and took two steps to Gu Xiangyi’s side to help him to undress.
As the woman opposite him suddenly come closer, Gu Xiangyi instinctively retreated. “No, I’ll just ask my father for help.”
When she saw this scene, Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows and stared at Gu Xiangyi with interest.
When Leng Shuang saw the situation, she stopped immediately. She glanced at the man in front of her and looked at her mistress.
Patriarch Gu came forward, smiling while explaining. “I’m sorry to let Ghost Doctor and Young Miss Leng see this. My son is a little strange, but he means no harm.”
“It doesn’t matter. Just take off the clothes.” Feng Jiu held her cheek in one hand and stared at the pair of father and son with a smile in her eyes.
Gu Xianyi was a little uncomfortable when he heard this. Why did it sound so strange? He glanced at Feng Jiu and saw her smile with amusement in her eyes, while the cold-faced woman in black named Leng Shuang walked back and stood quietly aside.
He couldn’t help but wonder that there was still a young man behind Ghost Doctor. Why didn’t she ask him to help him remove his clothes and open the bandage? Why did she call the woman in black instead?
He didn’t understand what kind of person this Ghost Doctor was. She seemed to behave differently from the average person.
With the inner garment off and the cloth on the wound was untied, a festering smell heavier than before came out, making Gu Xiangyi a little embarrassed.
Feng Jiu frowned at the smell. She stared at the wound and stood up. The wound was where the right arm connected to the shoulder. The festering wound was bigger than a palm and the shoulder bone could be seen faintly. The situation was very serious. To Feng Jiu’s surprise, with such an injury in his body, he was able to keep a straight face. He’s a remarkable person.
“How did you get this wound? What caused your wound?” She asked, looking at the resolute and calm Gu Xiangyi.
Gu Xiangyi paused for a moment and then answered. “It was a volcano eruption in the Volcano Forest. I was scalded by the erupted lava.”
Feng Jiu was surprised and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes. “The scald by the lava shouldn’t be so serious. What’s so special about that lava?”
