Chen Fang knocked on the thermos and said, "What's inside here isn't so much medicine as it is poison. After you drink it, your meridians will be in disarray, and your blood will churn. Your body will feel like countless bugs are eating your flesh, drinking your blood. The process will be quite painful, and then I will perform acupuncture on you, reversing your blood vessels back to normal. This whole process will be more unbearable than death itself."

The words of Chen Fang painted a look of terror on Xiaoxue's face.

Chen Fang continued, "Before we begin treatment, there are two preparations to make. First, you'll need to take off all your clothes because I need to perform acupuncture on you. Second, I will have to tie you to the bed, bind your hands and feet, and gag your mouth. Otherwise, the pain will be too much for you to bear, and I won't be able to perform the needles."

It was obvious.

Xiaoxue's breathing became rapid.

Setting aside the matter of being naked, just the thought of this process was enough to baffle Xiaoxue.

She was silent for a long time.

Suddenly she stood up, walked to the window, and pulled back the curtain to gaze at the view outside.

After a long silence,

she turned around and asked, "As long as I endure it, I'll be able to live, right?"

Chen Fang nodded and said, "Theoretically, yes. On the other hand, if you can't endure it, not only will your illness not improve, you might even die faster. You should understand what I mean."

"Mhm."

Xiaoxue nodded.

She took a deep breath, her eyes resolute, and asked, "When do we start?"

"We can start any time,"

said Chen Fang.

Xiaoxue said, "I've thought it over. I accept your treatment."

Chen Fang shivered and said, "Xiaoxue, I may not have made it clear enough, but this process really is like bone-breaking and heart-eroding…"

"I know. I accept the treatment,"

she said firmly this time.

Chen Fang opened up the bag he had brought with him, took out several ropes, and a few towels, and said, "Fine, go take a bath first. When you come out, don't put on any clothes."

"Alright."

Xiaoxue nodded.

She walked into the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water could be heard.

Chen Fang found a cup, poured out the medicine, and arranged the needle bag…

Everything was ready.

The door to the bathroom creaked open.

Chen Fang looked up and in that moment, his own blood surged.

The sight before him could not be described as merely 'blood boiling', it was more like 'thunderous fury'.

Of course, the 'thundering' referred to his heart.

Even in clothes, Xiaoxue had a devilish figure that sparked endless thoughts. Now naked, she was absolutely irresistible.

Her long and straight legs, her waist that could be encircled with a grasp, and most provocatively, the two huge round mounds on her chest provided an intense visual impact.

Not just big, but also firm, without the slightest indication of sagging, they defied gravity.

Between her closed legs,

a dense black forest was in view.

The hidden Mysterious Land was shadowy and partially visible.

Her entire body, with skin smooth as cream, looked like a piece of fine art.

Chen Fang's eyes were fixed.

"Can we start now?"

Noticing Chen Fang's unusual gaze, Xiaoxue blushed, asking somewhat bashfully.

That brought Chen Fang back to his senses.

He said, "Yes, start by drinking the medicine."

Xiaoxue picked up the cup containing the thick and dark liquid.

Just the smell made her feel nauseous, but still, she steeled herself and drank it down in one gulp.

After wiping her mouth,

Chen Fang pointed to the bed and said, "The medicine will work in ten minutes. Lie down so I can tie you up with the ropes."

"Okay."

Xiaoxue nodded.

He climbed into bed.

And lay down obediently.

Chen Fang first wrapped her wrists and ankles in a towel, a precaution to prevent the ropes from chafing her skin if pain should cause her to move abruptly. Next, he positioned her in a spread-eagle pose, tying each of her limbs to the head and foot of the bed.

This created an even more suggestive scene.

Chen Fang remembered that the last one to be treated this way was probably Ling Shaoqiu.

She was completely at his mercy.

The sight between her legs, which had not been visible just moments before, was now fully exposed.

One could tell at a glance that this was a "land" untouched, tender and dewy, perhaps due to congestion, it showed a pinkish hue.

"I'm going to gag you now," he said.

Chen Fang picked up the last towel and spoke.

Big Eye nodded and opened her mouth.

Chen Fang folded the towel into a square and forcibly stuffed it in.

As soon as he completed this task, the color drained from Big Eye's face, turning from rosy to pale. It was visibly noticeable that sweat began to bead on her forehead.

And that wasn't all.

Her body began to tremble.

As pain surged over her like waves.

Every pore on her body opened up, and fine sweat seeped out.

Her limbs struggled fiercely, and she made muffled sounds in her throat; her breathing became increasingly rapid. It was clear that the medicine was taking effect.

This scene was rather distressing to witness.

Yet, to survive, one must go through such a process.

Though Chen Fang had his reservations.

He still understood this principle.

For a full half-hour.

Chen Fang did nothing but wipe her sweat.

Finally, he saw blood once again flowing from Big Eye's nostrils.

He knew it was time to act.

Lighting the alcohol lamp, he heated each needle before inserting it into an acupoint on Big Eye's body.

The process was intricate and allowed for no mistakes. Chen Fang had to simultaneously check her pulse and search for the right points. In total, the needling took him over four hours.

During those four hours.

Big Eye passed out numerous times.

Only to be awoken again by pain.

To be honest, Chen Fang was quite impressed by her endurance.

He understood the pain she endured more than anyone.

The treatment, which started at eight in the morning, stretched on until two in the afternoon.

Six hours in total.

Big Eye was in pain for six long hours.

When Chen Fang finally removed the needles one by one from her body, she had already fallen into a dazed sleep.

The agony she experienced in those six hours was possibly more than some endure in a lifetime.

Chen Fang carefully untied the ropes.

Even though he had used towels.

The parts of her wrists and ankles were still red from the tightness, evidence of the great strength she had exerted in her struggles.

After finding a dry towel and wiping away the beads of sweat from her body, Chen Fang covered her with a blanket. He then sighed deeply and sat down, at last able to relax.

He waited another six hours.

When Big Eye gradually regained consciousness and opened her eyes, the sky outside had darkened, and there was Chen Fang, asleep in his chair beside her bed.

Her faint movements still managed to wake Chen Fang.

He lifted his head abruptly and saw Big Eye staring at him with wide eyes, motionless.

"You're awake?"

Chen Fang quickly pulled her hand out from under the blanket, placed his fingers on her pulse, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked, "How do you feel?"
