"Young General, even Doctor Zhang said that the medicine can't cure the poison. Why don't we think of another way?" Xiang Ying said to Yue Lingyuan.

Yue Lingyuan frowned, remaining silent.

The Western Regions' rare poison is so potent that anyone afflicted with it is essentially beyond saving.

If Tiezhu hadn't taken an arrow for him, he would be the one waiting to die right now.

Even though Dr. Zhang's medical skills were among the best in the Great Jin Dynasty, he still didn't recommend taking it, fearing...

Tie Zhu glanced at the young general, then at the small porcelain bottle in Liuli's hand, and the light in his eyes grew weaker and weaker.

"Young General, I'm willing to try. The young mistress is right. If the poison can be cured, then my life is not meant to end; if it cannot, then that is my fate!"

Tie Zhu knew he was beyond saving, and he only said these words to get a quick death.

Seeing that Tie Zhu himself agreed, Wen Rushi took the porcelain bottle from Liuli's hand without saying a word, poured the medicine out of the bottle, took a few steps forward, and stuffed the medicine into Tie Zhu's mouth.

She's been lingering here for so long, she's almost suffocated by the stench. The sooner she gets the antidote, the sooner she can leave.

Wen Rushi's actions startled everyone.

"Who told you to give him the medicine? What if something happens?" Xiang Ying questioned sternly.

"General Xiang, it was Tiezhu who asked for it himself." Yue Lingshan felt somewhat displeased when she saw her sister-in-law being questioned.

Wen Rushi glanced at Yue Lingyuan and said only, "Ling Shan is right."

Yue Lingyuan's attitude towards her changed drastically. Wen Rushi originally thought he would say she shouldn't have done it, just like Xiang Ying did. Unexpectedly, he only glanced at her lightly and then kept his eyes fixed on Tie Zhu.

Tie Zhu swallowed the medicine, and within a few breaths, the purple color on his face and lips visibly began to fade.

Just as everyone's attention was focused on Tie Zhu, Wen Ru Shi's expression suddenly changed.

Just as Tie Zhu recovered, she felt that the barrier that had been separating her from spiritual energy during her cultivation had suddenly cracked.

The sparse spiritual energy around her seeped into her body through the gaps, passing through her meridians and reaching her dantian.

She felt a gust of wind blow through her body, and in the blink of an eye, she successfully drew qi into her body and entered the first level of qi refinement.

A look of shock flashed across Wen Rushi's eyes!

The problem that had been bothering her for so long was solved just like that?

What did she just do?

They gave Tie Zhu an antidote pill.

No, it's saving lives!

Wen Rushi immediately looked at Tiezhu.

At this moment, Dr. Zhang was taking Tie Zhu's pulse with a shocked expression.

Upon seeing this, Dr. Shi strode over.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Tie Zhu's lips and face returned to their original color.

Everyone was so shocked by all these changes that they were speechless.

Wasn't it supposed to be a regular antidote pill? How did it cure the rare poison from the Western Regions in the blink of an eye?

Is this still a regular antidote pill?

Looking at the iron pillar that had been restored to its original state, Wen Rushi had a vague understanding in her heart.

She broke through that barrier while saving people.

Or perhaps, the golden light of her merit in saving people could break through the barrier that was preventing her from cultivating!

The more golden light of merit she receives, the larger the gaps in the barrier become, and the faster she can cultivate!

Since being reborn, Wen Rushi has never felt so relaxed.

Even though she had aroused her body and expelled a layer of filth, emitting an unpleasant stench, it didn't affect her good mood at the moment.

Wen Rushi touched her face and felt a thin layer of dirt on it.

Fortunately, she had been disguising herself all along. Her face was naturally dark, so even if she expelled a layer of black mud, outsiders wouldn't notice anything unless they looked closely.

The tent smelled strongly of sweat, and no one noticed her odor for a while.

Moreover, with spiritual energy in her dantian, she could easily remove the dirt from her body by performing a cleansing incantation.

However, Wen Rushi did not do that.

If you use the purification technique, not only will the dirt be removed, but the medicinal liquid applied to your body will also be completely cleaned.

Wen Rushi certainly didn't want to perform a face-changing act.

Dr. Zhang pulled everyone back from their shock.

"Tiezhu's poison has been neutralized! Young Madam, where did this medicine come from? It's truly amazing! The effect is incredible; is it really just an ordinary antidote pill?"

Wen Rushi handed the porcelain bottle to Liuli and said calmly, "I made this myself. It is indeed a common antidote pill that can cure common poisons."

Zhang Jun, his eyes wide, couldn't help but roar, "You mean by 'ordinary antidote pills' that they can cure all ordinary poisons?"

Wen Rushi nodded. "Mm."

The military doctor rubbed his hands together. "Young Madam, do you have many of these antidote pills? When we're on campaign, our soldiers are easily infected with the Golden Juice Poison. It's a difficult poison to cure, and once infected, eight or nine out of ten die. If these antidote pills could cure the Golden Juice Poison..."

Wen Rushi, of course, understood what the Golden Juice Poison Zhang Junyi was referring to.

During battles, logistics soldiers would boil excrement and splash it on the enemy when they weren't looking. Not only would the enemy be scalded and their skin torn open, but the excrement itself was also a deadly weapon. Even if they survived the burns, the wounds would become infected and there would be no cure.

Wen Rushi answered readily, "Sure, I'll make some more and bring them over later."

After such an unexpected stroke of luck from saving lives, Wen Ru made a decision: she would stay in the military camp as a medic, treating the sick and saving lives! That way, her cultivation would no longer be a problem!

Hearing such a response surprised and delighted everyone!

If the Golden Juice Poison can be cured, then by the end of that battle, half of their lives will be saved!

Dr. Zhang was so excited that he didn't know what to say for a long time, not expecting Wen Ru to be so straightforward.

As a military doctor, the last thing he wanted to face was being unable to save the wounded patients in his care.

Yue Lingyuan looked at Wen Rushi in surprise, "Your medical skills are really that good?"

He had no recollection of hearing that Ru Shi was knowledgeable in medicine.

"My mother was a highly skilled doctor; I only inherited a portion of her expertise," Wen Rushi casually offered as an excuse.

Her medical skills naturally had nothing to do with her birth mother; she just needed to have such a line of knowledge.

Yue Lingshan looked proud. "I told you my sister-in-law's pills were very effective, but you didn't believe me!"

Xiang Ying's expression turned somewhat unpleasant for a moment, but only for a fleeting instant, quickly replaced by joy, and she praised:

"I didn't expect the young mistress to be such a good doctor! If you had explained earlier, Brother Tiezhu wouldn't have had to live in fear for so long."

Is it because she didn't say so sooner?

Wen Rushi glanced at her but ignored her.

The atmosphere between the two was somewhat awkward.

Yue Lingyuan was talking to Tie Zhu at the time and did not notice Wen Rushi.

Yue Lingshan tugged at her older brother's arm, "Big brother, things are settled here now, let's go see Dad!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Lingyuan said, "Father should be resting in his tent right now. I'll take you there."

Then he turned back to Tiezhu and said, "Tiezhu, you should rest well. I'll come see you again later."

After saying that, he took the lead and left the tent.

Wen Rushi and Yue Lingshan naturally followed.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Xiang Ying's face. After coming out of the tent, she said, "Young General, I have other matters to attend to, so I won't go over there."

It was normal for Wen Rushi and his companion to visit the General, as they were family members.

However, as a subordinate, she naturally could not request an audience with General Yue unless it was for something important.

"Go!" Yue Lingyuan said without turning his head.

Wen Rushi and Yue Lingshan didn't even glance at her.

Xiang Ying watched the departing figures of the group, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.
