"Miss Dongfang's situation looks grim. Her arm is showing corpse spots already. For an old man like me, it's my first time seeing a living person turn into a dead one so quickly."
Mr Chen carried his small medical box and walked out of the room, shaking his head helplessly. "I've already treated the wound, but the corpse poison has spread too much. Now it's in the limbs; in a while, it will reach the internal organs, and then it will truly be beyond recovery."
Dongfang Chenyuan's eyes were frantic. "Earlier, I placed a talisman on Yue. It's the talisman that's halted the spread of the corpse poison. Otherwise, it would have invaded her internal organs by now, and she would be gone."
"But the current situation is not much better!" Mr Chen sighed softly.
"Cough, cough... Mr Chen, have you used the glutinous rice I had Zhixi bring over?"
Yu Nianzhao tightened her fox fur robe, shivering from the cold, and approached nestled in Xie Jiuxiao's arms.
