Chereads / The Immortal Rogue / Chapter 70 - 70

Chapter 70 - 70

Suddenly, a painful scream came out from somewhere nearby.

Knave was astounded that there was another person in such a desolate place like this.

Following the shout, he walked on until he saw a disciple wearing a white uniform spasming on the ground with all four limbs constantly shaking.

Knave with his experience saw at a glance that this disciple had an acute, lethal illness. If it wasn't treated,  he would lose his life.

He stepped forward and then knelt near the disciple, pulling out a purple sandalwood case. He pulled out a clean silver needle and pricked him right in an acupuncture point on the back.

He quickly pricked the acupuncture points on the disciple's back, flipped him over and pricked the acupuncture points on his chest.

By turning him over, his face was revealed. Knave sucked in a large breath of air. This person that was close to death was the person he had just met near the dining hall it was "Senior Disciple Shaun."

Knave stared blankly for a moment.

Shaun had just dominated his opponent a moment ago, and he looked like an invincible being.

But his face was now marred by a grim look, distorted by a great amount of pain.  He frothed at the corner of his mouth and it was obvious he was no longer in his right mind.

Knave regained his focus, and muttered to himself before throwing himself to the task. He moved used his hand like flowing water as he rapidly pricked Shaun with ten needles.

After the last needle, Knave wiped beads of sweat off of his forehead and let out a large sigh. This intensive acupuncture emergency treatment was truly draining.

Senior Disciple Shaun, whose back was pricked full of thin silver needles, began to recover and wake up.

"You are…" he spoke with great effort but he did not have enough energy to say even a word more.

"I am an outer disciple similar to you. You must not speak. First, I will help you recover your physical power, and I can also slow down this illness. The illness you have is very strange, and it is very possible only a famous Doctor can save you now. Unfortunately, I do not know where to find such a person," Knave said as he checked Shaun's pulse. As he did, his brows furrowed.

"Medicine… is…" Shaun looked anxious and his lips trembled. He tried to lift up his arm but couldn't do so.

"You have medicine for this illness?" Knave immediately understood.

"Yes…" Shaun relaxed and dropped his head.

Knave tried to be as polite as possible as he rummaged around in Shaun's bag because he didn't want to become his enemy.

He found many items of no value until he finally pulled out a small bottle. It must have been important as it was sealed tightly. It must have been the thing that Shaun needed.

He turned the bottle around in his hands and looked down at Shaun's face who had an excited look on it and tried to tell him.

Knave opened the bottle. Surprisingly the smell of a mortal herbal medicines came out.

Knave sniffed it and his expression turned puzzled. He carefully took out a pink pill from the bottle, which looked quite nice.

Knave's expression returned to its previous serenity as he asked, "Is this really the pill you need?"

Shaun was speechless.

"This Pill uses a small amount of fragrant ginger, scorpion blossom, Century Blue fern, and twenty-three rare seeds to refine it. The medicine is pink on the exterior. After taking it, the body will overcome its physical pain. It is also used when a girl goes through her cycle, no?"

Knave looked at Shaun coldly and spoke as if his knowledge was unquestionable.

Shaun, upon hearing Knave, paled and his face became frantic.

"If you consume this, after a period of time you will need to eat the pill again. Each time you do, you will be able to go through vicious cramping and agony. However, if you don't eat it, your body will be paralyzed. In reality, every time you take this pill you are slowly getting addicted to it. The first time you eat it, you will not feel it. But slowly your body will desire it more and more."
