Siheyuan: Cooking journey

Staring at the needles, Xia Muya's eyes suddenly narrowed and her whole body began to tremble.

Although I don't know what this thing called acupuncture means,

But it is obvious that these slender silver needles are not just for display.

The person in front of me must want to stick these needles into his body.

Is this what you call treatment?

Thinking of this,

Xia Muya was filled with fear and rejection. Rather than endure so much pain from the needles, she would rather choose to take the so-called elixir, even if it was a scam.

Life is hard enough.

In the remaining time, she just wants to spend every day quietly with the people she cares about.

During this process,

Xia Muya was really resistant to acupuncture, especially after seeing so many needles, some of which were very long.

Imagine the holes these needles will leave in your skin.

She felt a chill and without saying a word, she stood up and was about to leave.

She has now concluded that the other party is just a liar, using acupuncture as a cover to deceive people.

The effect is almost the same as taking medicine.

The effect cannot be seen immediately; it takes time for it to take effect, and you don’t know how many times you will be pricked during this process.

The most important thing is, if the disease could really be cured, Xia Muya would have endured so many injections.

But if these are all tricks, then no matter how many times you inject it, it will be useless and have no effect at all.

Aren't you leaving yet?

Waiting for the injection!

Xia Muya is not that stupid.

"Masako, where are you going..."

Ye Shan quickly grabbed her arm.

"Sister Shan, let me go..."

Xia Muya struggled but couldn't get free. She was so anxious that she almost cried.

"Sister Shan, I really don't want to be pricked by a needle."

"I know you are doing this for my own good, that you care about me, that you cannot accept my condition, and that you hope I can get better. But can you please be more clear-headed? I have a terminal illness, and there is no cure."

"If the big hospitals can't cure it, how can he possibly cure it? He's a liar and wants your money..."

Ye Shan frowned and interrupted her coldly: "Shut up, don't say anything!"

Xia Muya was scolded and moved her mouth as if wanting to say something, but when she saw Ye Shan's cold eyes, she dared not say anything more. She just blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at her with a pitiful look.

Ye Shan ignored her and turned to look at He Yuzhu apologetically.

"I'm sorry, Masako didn't mean it. Please wait a moment, I want to talk to Masako."

He Yuzhu nodded.

After all, Xia Muya doesn't know much about acupuncture, so it's normal for her to have some resistance.

However, after Ye Shan persuaded her, Xia Muya was still unwilling to receive treatment.

He Yuzhu didn't intend to waste time and reminded: "I have other things to do. If it doesn't work, let's talk about it next time."

He had told Ye Shan before that he was going to leave here.

The so-called next time is actually just a perfunctory response.

After listening to his words,

Ye Shan immediately understood what he meant. She looked anxious, glared at Xia Muya, and pulled her into the room.

"We agreed to this before, why are you unwilling now?"

In the room, Ye Shan was very angry and her tone was cold.

But seeing Xia Muya's pitiful look, her heart softened again, and her voice became much gentler: "You know, this is saving your life!"

"You are still so young, and there is still a long way to go in the future. There are countless possibilities waiting for you. Refusing treatment means giving up hope in life and giving up the future."

Xia Muya's eyes flashed with sadness, and she whispered: "If I can survive, how can I be willing to give up?"

"But, but..."

Xia Muya looked at her with tears in her eyes.

"I know you do it for my own good."

"But my disease is an incurable terminal illness."

"Sister Shan, you have to be realistic. That person is lying to you."

"The big hospitals are helpless, and the most advanced medical treatments can't cure it."

"But he said the illness was not serious and could be cured. Isn't he a liar?"

"What is his so-called treatment? Acupuncture? Can he cure my illness by sticking a few needles into my body?"

"This is not treatment, this is torture."

"I want to live, but if I really can't live, I can only accept it calmly."

"In this short time, I just want to calmly wait for that moment to come. I don't want to run around to seek medical treatment, and I don't want you to be deceived by him."

"That person just wanted to use my illness to deceive you..."

"Lied to me?"

Ye Shan frowned and interrupted her. Looking at the tears flashing in her eyes, she sighed and said, "You don't know the facts at all, that's why you say that."

"What is cheating? It's cheating if you have a purpose and do whatever it takes to achieve it!"

"What could he cheat me of? He never mentioned the money you mentioned. I specially invited him to treat you."

"I understand that you have never been exposed to acupuncture and think it cannot cure diseases."

"But this is not a reason for you to question him."

There was a pause.

Ye Shan also knew that these words were not convincing. She bit her lip, took off her work clothes, unbuttoned her white shirt, and a piece of gauze appeared under her purple underwear.

"Sister Shan, you are injured..."

After seeing this, Xia Muya asked with concern and worry: "When did you get hurt?"

"This is not important."

Ye Shan lowered her head and tore off the gauze, revealing the scar.

"Sister Shan, don't do this, wrap it up quickly..."

Xia Muya rushed forward and wanted to bandage her wound.

Ye Shan took a step back, looked at her calmly and said, "This is a gunshot wound. I felt the same as you at the time. I thought I was going to die."

"Thinking of you and the many things that are still unfinished, I feel sad. I really want to do something, but there is nothing I can do except wait for that moment to come."

"He saved me with acupuncture, a method you considered torture."

"I don't know the specific mechanism and principle of acupuncture."

"But I can tell you clearly that acupuncture can save lives."

“Without him, without acupuncture, you wouldn’t see me now.”

"Without my own experience, I don't believe that a few silver needles can save lives."

"It is precisely because of my experience that I know clearly that this is effective that I specifically asked him to help you with the treatment."

Ye Shan ignored the gauze and buttoned up her white shirt one by one, saying coldly, "I have said everything I need to say. I'm done with this. It would be best if you change your mind and agree to the treatment."

"If you don't agree, I can only knock you out and force you to receive treatment."

"don't want……"

Xia Muya hurriedly took a few steps back and said anxiously: "I haven't said I don't want to, why did you knock me out?" Although she was still reluctant to receive acupuncture, she couldn't help feeling nervous when she thought of the silver needles piercing her body.

Xia Muya believed Ye Shan's words without a doubt.

The reason was simple: Ye Shan had no reason to deceive her. She had refused before because she felt that Ye Shan had been deceived, but now she knew that Ye Shan had not been deceived and had even survived a near-death experience.

While Xia Muya was worried about her, she was also willing to give it a try.

This is just an attempt, it does not mean there is a chance of survival. Gunshot wounds and terminal illnesses are two different things after all, and they are completely unrelated in medicine. Someone who can treat gunshot wounds may not be able to treat terminal illnesses.

The reason why she decided to give it a try was more because of Ye Shan's kindness to her and the hope she placed on hiring someone to treat her illness.

She was very touched by this concern and expectation, and did not want to let this kindness down easily. Even so, Xia Muya did not have high expectations, after all, it was a terminal illness that even top experts were helpless to treat.

Even after listening to what Ye Shan said, she still felt that it was too far-fetched to cure the disease with just a few needles.

At this time, Xia Muya was more worried about Ye Shan's wound than her own illness. Thinking that Ye Shan's wound had not been bandaged yet, she hurriedly asked: "Sister Shan, your wound has not been treated, right?"

"It's okay, the wound has healed."

When this topic was brought up, Ye Shan's expression became serious. "It's incredible. I lost a lot of blood when I was injured, but after I woke up, I felt normal. Except for the slight pain from the wound, it was as if nothing had happened. What's even more incredible is that the wound healed very quickly, which is simply against the rules of conventional medicine."

"Don't worry, since he said it can be cured, it can definitely be cured!"

"oh oh......"

Although she agreed, Xia Muya was skeptical in her heart. After listening to Ye Shan's story about her experience with acupuncture treatment, she became interested in this method.

But she didn't completely believe that the effect was so miraculous, and thought that Ye Shan might have exaggerated it a little to comfort her.

Then, she asked nervously, "Sister Shan, does acupuncture hurt? Thinking about having those needles inserted into my body, my whole body is shaking."

Ye Shan thought for a moment and said, "It won't hurt. I didn't feel it at all."

In order to prevent Xia Muya from being overly nervous, Ye Shan did not mention the fact that she was in a coma and receiving treatment.

"Is it really not painful?"

After several confirmations, Xia Muya felt relieved seeing Ye Shan's firm attitude, but she immediately thought of another problem and couldn't help but worry again.

"Sister Shan, do I need to take off my clothes during acupuncture?"

Hearing this, Ye Shan was a little uncertain, but thinking back to the situation at that time, she answered vaguely: "It takes too many clothes to wear. How can the doctor operate?"

"Do I have to take off my clothes?"

Xia Muya frowned, feeling reluctant, and suddenly remembered the wound on Ye Shan's body, and couldn't help but said: "Sister Shan, you, you were seen naked by him?"

Ye Shan was buttoning her white shirt. After hearing this, she was stunned for a moment and pretended to be calm and said, "When I went to the hospital for treatment, the situation was similar."

"Compared to saving my life, this is nothing."

This sounds right.

This is indeed the case.

Xia Muya still felt repulsed by the thought of being seen naked by that strange man, and asked anxiously and hesitantly, "Is it okay if I don't take off my clothes?"

"Do you think it's possible..."

Ye Shan glanced at her, slowed down her tone, and instructed: "Get ready, I'll go call him over."

"Don't be embarrassed, this is for medical treatment."

"Don't worry, I will always be with you."
