The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 128 - 128: 128 Peeping

In this way, the silver needles pinned on the cloth bag all went into the clear water bowl.

Acupuncture was inconvenient with clothes on, so after checking that the two men on the bed wouldn’t wake up, she took off her clothes, sat on the bed, and used her removed clothes to cover the important parts of her lower body.

After a simple sterilization, she picked up all the silver needles, draining the water on them, and held them in her half-healed right wrist.

With her left hand, she took one of the needles and directly inserted it into the Baihui acupoint, the second one into the Tianchi acupoint, and the third one into the Shenting Acupoint…

These days, she had been pondering every aspect of needle therapy for deafness.

The order, depth, and angle of each needle had been filtered through her mind countless times.

All the needles were inserted into major acupuncture points, with each entry at varying depths and precise movements.

With her eyes closed, she felt the pain of each needle stimulating her acupoints, a sensation she could hardly bear.

Being an exceptional killer, she was used to the pain of flesh and blood. This level of pain was nothing to her.

Occasionally, she touched different silver needles with her left hand, slowly twisting them…

With her eyes shut, she listened to her body’s reactions while focusing on the acupuncture process, not taking anything lightly.

Her world was so quiet that there was no sound at all, leaving only the concentrated process of acupuncture…

Even without a timer, after two hours, she suddenly opened her eyes, emotionlessly pulling out the silver needles one by one from her body and head, throwing them all into the clear water bowl for a wash before pinning them back onto the cloth bag in an orderly manner.

After getting dressed, she took the water bowl to the yard to pour out the water, returned the bowl to the kitchen, and then went back to the master bedroom. As she passed by the window of the secondary bedroom, she suddenly turned her head to peer inside.

The secondary bedroom was pitch black and unlit.

The figure that spied on her seemed to be hiding something, suddenly disappearing behind the wall.

She couldn’t see the person’s face clearly, only seeing the quilt bulging in the darkness, which was the shape of their legs. They were lying on their back with their lower body covered with the quilt and their upper body leaning against the wall.

Unless she stuck her head through the window, she wouldn’t be able to see their face.

It suddenly occurred to her that the patient in the secondary bedroom hadn’t just woken up but probably hadn’t slept since before she started the acupuncture.

These days, she knew that the patient couldn’t get out of bed due to the condition of his legs.

Even though she was being watched, she didn’t feel angry.

Because she couldn’t sense any malice from him.

Firstly, he wouldn’t know that she had pressed the sleeping acupoints of his second brother. Moreover, she was deaf, and if he thought she had malicious intentions, he could have screamed and called for help.

But so far, everything was normal.

She only paused briefly before continuing forward.

Realizing that he must have seen her carrying the water bowl, she stopped, and said calmly, “I have no ill intentions.”

Her clear voice echoed through the quiet night.

She knew that he heard her in the secondary room.

Without minding his reaction, she walked back to the master bedroom.

In a short while, the sleeping acupoints of both second brother and the petty cat would be automatically released. She had timed it well.

Picking up the bedding on the floor, she hesitated for a moment before placing it on the petty cat, as it was his quilt to begin with.

Then she covered second brother with his quilt.

As for herself, she had no quilt, so she lay down in the corner with her clothes on.

As soon as the quilt was put on Xiao Yuchuan, he woke up..
