Chapter 240.1: Vow Bound By Hair (1/2)
Tang Doudou copied his beaming smile, but realized that no matter how she tried, she couldn’t give off the same feeling. So she decided to just pushed Baili Yu to put some space between them.
“Nothing in particular. Didn’t you say that you wanted to get married?”
Baili Yu was shoved to the side to lie on his back. When he saw that her eyes were sparkling mischievously, his lips hooked up. “Mhm.”
“But you haven’t even proposed and you want to get married!? No way I’m accepting it!”
“Propose?” Baili Yu once again moved over closer to her. “Wife, you want this husband to propose?”
“En!” Tang Doudou affirmed. Geez, it was marriage for goodness sake!
It wasn’t like playing house, alright?
She’d like to ask what girl didn’t want to experience a super romantic proposal before getting married?
Besides, the most pressing matter right now wasn’t getting married, but the Hoarfrost Poison in his body. After discussing with Tian Weishi a long time, they came to the conclusion that the Hoarfrost Poison has long already integrated with his organs so there was no antidote that could neutralize it. After that, she told Tian Weishi about Cang Baicao’s acupuncture treatment and the little pamphlet he gave.
As expected of someone with extensive world experience, Tian Weishi was immediately able to guess Cang Baicao’s intentions. He had used yin yang harmonizing acupuncture, then pressure point sealing acupuncture to suppress the poison. However, this wasn’t enough to completely cure the poison.
At most it could only prolong Baili Yu’s life for a few more years.
Since ancient times, food has shared common properties with medicine. There were a lot of diseases which couldn’t be treated with drugs but could be treated with medicinal food. Due to this, Tian Weishi also knew a little about human acupuncture points and veins. Meanwhile, Tang Doudou knew quite a lot about the body’s internal organs, so she explained to Tian Weishi that there were things in human blood vessels that were capable of generating blood and that it was the heart which pumped this created blood through all parts of the body.
The only way to completely cure the Hoarfrost Poison was through a blood transfusion!
By swapping out the poisonous blood in Baili Yu’s body with healthy blood and using the heart to pump the new blood through all the organs, the poison blood could be thoroughly washed away. With this, once the poison blood was gone, the Hoarfrost Poison would be cured.
However, though this was easy to talk about, implementing it was harder than touching the sky. After all, everything she talked about was only possible with very advanced technology.
In this ancient era where there was no suitable equipment at all, a blood transfusion shouldn’t even be mentioned. Just the question of how to preserve the good blood was difficult to answer, and then there was the question of how to perform the transfusion when there were no needles or sterilized tubes. It couldn’t be that they should directly feed him the blood by mouth, right?
There was actually another way, but it was far too risky.
That method was to completely let out all of the poison blood within Baili Yu’s body, then use medicine to stimulate his bone marrow so that new healthy blood cells would be produced.
But how could a person survive after all the blood in his body was drained?
Tang Doudou sighed. No wonder they said the Hoarfrost Poison was difficult to cure. This wasn’t just difficult, it was practically impossible.
When Baili Yu saw that her expression seemed off, he thought he had said something wrong. However, he really didn’t understand what proposing meant. To propose to get married?
Since ancient times, marriage has always been decided by the parents and a matchmaker.
Baili Yu really didn’t understand what a proposal was.
He peeked at Tang Doudou who was still deep in thought out of the corner of his eye. Then, taking advantage of her distraction, he lifted her up and set her on his waist.
“What are you doing?” Tang Doudou was startled. Her face immediately flushed when she saw Baili Yu below her. This position was way too ambiguous ah!
“Didn’t Wife want this husband to propose?” Baili Yu reached out and removed the jade ring from his thumb. “However, this husband doesn’t really understand what Wife means by proposing and can only presumptuously make a guess.”
