Ye Qiu didn’t take Bai Bing home to make a baby. Instead, he went to the street, found an antique shop, and bought forty-nine lanterns and some yellow paper, brushes, cinnabar and other things.
After that, he went home and rested for a whole day.
To recharge his energy.
At six o’clock in the evening.
Ye Qiu and Bai Bing had dinner, then took a bath and changed clothes, and then went straight to the hospital of the Jingcheng Military Region Sanatorium.
Old Tang specifically said hello to the guards on duty, so this time Ye Qiu and the others had a smooth journey and didn’t encounter any interrogation.
As soon as Ye Qiu came to the door of General Bai’s ward, he saw Old Tang.
“Ye Qiu, the things you wanted, I got them.”
Old Tang handed a wooden box to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu opened the wooden box and saw that there was a hundred-year-old ginseng and two hundred-year-old polygonum multiflorum wrapped in red silk inside.
“Old Tang, thank you so much! How much money should I transfer to you?” Ye Qiu said.
Old Tang smiled slightly and said, “There’s no need to pay.”
Hmm?
Ye Qiu and Bai Bing were stunned and looked at Old Tang puzzled.
Old Tang laughed and said, “These three medicinal materials were originally treasures of Old Ye. Hearing that they were needed to treat General Bai, Old Ye asked me to bring them over.”
“Old Ye said that General Bai is a national hero. If these three medicinal materials can help, it will be a great merit, so they are given for free.”
Ye Qiu knew that the reason why Old Ye was so generous was mostly because of his face.
Bai Bing was very touched in her heart and said, “Old Ye’s gift of medicinal materials at this time is undoubtedly timely help. After Grandpa wakes up, I must go to the Ye family to express my gratitude in person.”
Old Tang smiled and said, “Bai Bing, Old Ye specifically instructed that there is no need to come to the door to thank him. This is his kindness. He hopes that you will work hard in the future and have a happy and fulfilling family.”
Bai Bing didn’t yet know the relationship between Ye Qiu and Old Ye and only felt warm in her heart.
Mr. Tang then said to Ye Qiu, “Mr. Ye asked me to tell you to go all out and not disappoint him.”
”Got it.”
Ye Qiu responded lightly.
Just at this moment, Zhang Jiuling came, holding a sword in his hand.
”Ye Qiu, I brought you the peach wood sword. See if it’s okay?” Zhang Jiuling handed the sword to Ye Qiu’s hand.
The scabbard was made of cowhide, and the blade was three feet and three inches long, brown in color, with a Tai Chi gossip engraved on it.
As soon as Ye Qiu pulled out the sword, he smelled a strong incense smell and his eyes lit up instantly. “This sword is not bad.”
Zhang Jiuling smiled and said, “The abbot of Changchun Temple also asked me if I was going to use it to suppress evil spirits. I said it was for treating diseases, but he didn’t believe it at all.”
Bai Bing felt a little unbelievable. “Can a wooden sword suppress evil spirits?”
”The peach wood sword is not an ordinary wooden sword.” Ye Qiu said. “It is said in ‘Taiping Yulan’: The peach is the essence of the five woods. In ancient times, the one that suppressed evil spirits was this fairy wood. The essence of the peach wood is at the ghost gate and can control hundreds of ghosts. Therefore, a peach wood sword is now made to suppress evil.”
”The peach wood was also called the dragon-subduing wood in ancient times and indeed has the effect of suppressing the house and exorcising evil spirits.”
“During the Three Kingdoms period, due to excessive suspicion, Cao Cao suffered from a headache that couldn’t be cured for a long time. Later, after the proposal of his military advisor, high-quality peach wood was carefully selected in the Central Plains to make a peach wood sword and hung it indoors. Immediately, the headache disappeared. Later, he went on expeditions in the south and north and established the hegemony of the Cao Wei.”
“Of course, an ordinary peach wood sword can’t ward off evil spirits and protect the house. It must be consecrated or a magic weapon that has been contaminated with the smell of incense.”
“If I’m not mistaken, this peach wood sword should be made of hundred-year-old peach wood and has been enshrined in the Taoist temple for at least more than two hundred years. It can be said that this is a top-quality magic weapon.”
Ye Qiu smiled and said, “With this sword, I’m more confident in performing the life-prolonging method.”
“By the way, where’s the big rooster?” Zhang Jiuling suddenly asked.
“I asked Tang Fei and Long Ye to help find it. There should be news soon…”
Before Ye Qiu’s words were finished, Tang Fei and Long Ye ran in panting from the outside.
Long Ye was carrying a big white rooster in his hand. It weighed about seven or eight catties. The comb was blood red, the claws were sharp and pointed, and it was mighty and strong.
Tang Fei was carrying a thermos bucket in his hand. When the lid was opened, a fishy smell came out. There was a bowl of dog blood in it.
The big rooster was bought by me from a. It cost 30,000 yuan. There’s no need to give me this money. Just consider it as my little. Long Ye said.
Tang Fei said, “The dog blood was obtained from the military dog raised by my grandfather. You don’t need to pay for it, Ye Qiu. But you have to buy some nutritional products for the military dog later. After losing so much blood, I don’t know when it will be able to make up for it.”
“No problem.” Ye Qiu readily agreed.
“Now everything is ready, and all that’s left is the east wind. We just need to wait for the midnight alternation to perform the life-prolonging method for General Bai.” said Old Tang.
Ye Qiu took a look and saw that it was only eight o’clock in the evening.
“The treatment will officially start at eleven o’clock in the evening. Now I need to set up the venue.” Ye Qiu asked, “Old Tang, can the rooftop of the hospital be lent to me for use tonight?”
Old Tang nodded: “Yes.”
“Tang Fei, Long Ye, you two help me.”
Ye Qiu led the two of them to the rooftop, and then placed forty-nine lanterns on the ground in the shape of the Tai Chi Bagua.
Next, Ye Qiu mixed cinnabar with dog blood and drew talismans on yellow paper with a brush.
He drew a total of seventy-two talismans.
After finishing all these, it was already past nine o’clock.
There were only the three of them here, so Tang Fei said, “Ye Qiu, General Bai is the magic needle of the Bai family. If he wakes up the biggest beneficiaries will be Bai Yujing and his son Are you sure you really want to save him?
Ye Qiu said, “Of course I’m sure. Otherwise, why would I go to so much trouble to ask you guys for help?”
“What if after General Bai wakes up, he sides with Bai Yujing and his son and deals with you together?” Tang Fei reminded. “General Bai has a high prestige in the military and his relationship with the Supreme Leader is also quite good.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not afraid of him.”
Since Ye Qiu dares to save him, he has already thought about the consequences.
After General Bai wakes up, whether he is an enemy or a friend to him, he has no fear.
Time passes quietly.
Ten fifty.
Ye Qiu pushed General Bai out of the ward, and then he, Tang Fei, and Long Ye carried General Bai to the rooftop together.
At this time, General Bai was lying quietly on the hospital bed, surrounded by forty-nine lanterns.
“Ye Qiu, what else do we need to do next?” Old Tang asked.
Ye Qiu said, “Everyone has helped me prepare everything that should be prepared. There is temporarily nothing that needs help. However, when I treat later, there are two points that everyone needs to pay attention to.”
“First, no matter what happens during the treatment, everyone should not disturb me, nor let others disturb me.”
“Second, you step back a little and protect your own safety.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Ye Qiu lowered his head and looked at the time.
Eleven nine.
“The time is almost up. I’m going to start the treatment!”
