Starting with a choice of a wife, a princess, a female general, and a down-on-her-luck Young Miss. But in this Warring States period, beauty is worthless; you need someone strong and capable. Excus...
"Yes, such amazing medical skills are a blessing to witness even once!"
Yi Youwei chimed in from the side.
Sun Jian ignored their whispered conversation and opened his medical kit to begin preparing his supplies.
No one had ever seen what he took out before, but at that moment, no one dared to say anything or ask any questions.
Even Yao Tianzheng, Yi Youwei, and Li Ke stood aside like students, serving and cooperating like servants.
Mi Zhu, Xing Kang, Zhuang Qishi, and the others need no further explanation.
To ease Sun Jian's mind, Emperor Ganwu spoke earnestly from the side, saying, "Minister Sun, you only need to do your best to treat me today. There is no need for you to feel any burden."
"Listen, everyone! Minister Sun has treated me today. Regardless of the outcome, he will not only be innocent but also meritorious!"
All the ministers bowed and clasped their hands in greeting to Emperor Ganwu, indicating that they were well aware of this matter.
At that moment, everyone turned their attention to Sun Jian.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty will certainly do your utmost!"
Sun Jian also cupped his hands in greeting, let out a long sigh, and began to organize the equipment he had exchanged for with his points.
The first thing is naturally the ventilator. This thing doesn't require carrying an oxygen cylinder; you only need to fill it with an appropriate amount of water.
While ordering Wang De to send someone to fetch clean water, Sun Jian also made sure to inject an inhaled nebulizer to adjust and improve lung function and strengthen the lungs and trachea.
This stuff is more effective than adrenaline for someone like Emperor Ganwu.
There's a saying in medicine: as long as the cardiopulmonary function is successfully activated and strengthened, and other organs are not on the verge of their limits, then there is still hope for the person!
Before long, clean water was brought over, and Sun Jian quickly put an oxygen machine on Emperor Ganwu.
Emperor Ganwu remained silent, doing whatever Sun Jian said for the time being.
Next, Sun Jian administered intravenous infusions to Emperor Ganwu. He first adjusted the medications according to the safe ratio for intravenous injection, focusing on the emperor's blood vessels, heart, and lung function. Of course, antibiotics were also essential. In the end, four large IV drips were prepared.
Four large bottles of this stuff is already the limit for one person's daily intake; otherwise, too much IV fluid could cause serious problems.
Sun Jian understood this principle.
Once everything was ready, it was time to begin acupuncture on Emperor Ganwu.
Before the acupuncture was performed, the four imperial physicians observed and learned from the sidelines, because Sun Jian had told them that this was called the Mysterious Saint Blood Needle, and they naturally wanted to see what it was.
It was described as a silver needle, yet it didn't quite resemble one. The front part was similar, but the back part was quite strange; none of them had ever seen anything like it before.
Sun Jian first used the alcohol from the first-aid kit he won in the lottery to disinfect Emperor Ganwu, and then began to give Emperor Ganwu acupuncture in front of everyone.
Emperor Ganwu didn't move an inch in the entire city, not even raising an eyebrow.
He originally thought that when Sun Jian applied acupuncture, he would at least use silver needles to prick his entire body, but who would have thought that it would end with just one needle on his arm?
Seeing Sun Jian adjusting the speed and rate of the IV drip into his veins, Emperor Ganwu asked with a surprised expression.
"Minister Sun? Is the Mysterious Sage Blood Needle treatment finished?"
Sun Jian nodded.
It's definitely finished; it's already starting to enter your bloodstream via IV drip.
How can we not call it a day?
You can slowly infuse these four IV bottles. They contain not only various medicines, but also various nutritional solutions, saline solution, and all kinds of trace elements for the body.
Next, we'll administer adrenaline, followed by wound treatment.
Sun Jian nodded but didn't say anything, continuing to busy himself with what he was doing.
Several imperial physicians expressed their deep admiration at this moment.
"Your Excellency's Mysterious Blood Needle is indeed not to be underestimated. This is the first time I have ever seen such acupuncture method, which can directly deliver medicine into the blood. This is equivalent to a single needle in the arm being equivalent to all the steps of acupuncture with silver needles..."
After hearing the imperial physician's words, the surrounding ministers and the crown prince all nodded in agreement.
Their silly expressions made Sun Jian want to laugh.
Toads at the bottom of a well, how much of the sky have you ever seen?
This technique of mine is Western medicine, not traditional Chinese medicine!
Lao Tzu acknowledged that traditional Chinese medicine was indeed more powerful and superior than Western medicine, but in cases like Emperor Qianlong's, Western medicine was clearly the better choice.
After all, the principle of traditional Chinese medicine is to regulate and prevent illness. Even when treating symptoms, medicine is secondary, and the body is the primary focus.
Let your body fight off illness on its own.
There's a saying that goes something like this: Traditional Chinese medicine often treats diseases before they manifest and when they are about to manifest, while Western medicine treats diseases that have already manifested.
Sun Jian acknowledged that traditional Chinese medicine is far superior to Western medicine, but this depends on the circumstances.
For example, given the current state of Emperor Qianlong, Western medicine is indeed more useful and practical.
Seeing the admiring and grateful looks directed at him, Sun Jian continued with his work while also reminding the imperial physicians.
"If you haven't practiced this method for many years, you must never try it recklessly, or people will die!"
"The medicines used by Mr. Sun are all specially made; they can mix with blood and are completely different from the decoctions you understand!"
"The student understands!"
"The student understands!"
After listening to Sun Jian's teachings and reminders, the four imperial physicians quickly bowed and treated Sun Jian with the respect due to a teacher.
Sun Jian glanced at them with disdain and then said nothing more, continuing to prepare other things for Emperor Ganwu.
To demonstrate the difficulty of their treatment, they employed techniques that went beyond simple acupuncture.
Sun Jian also deliberately added a lot of unnecessary actions and techniques to each of the following stages.
For example, administering adrenaline to Emperor Ganwu.
In order to elevate his own status and make his medical skills seem like those of a medical genius, Sun Jian incorporated all the techniques and movements from his previous life.
He even used some silver needles to disguise himself, but he hadn't forgotten.
The only problem was that Emperor Ganwu was riddled with thorns...
Sun Jian naturally knew that acupuncture points should not be needled randomly, so he needled very shallowly in each place, and only in places that were harmless.
If no one else notices anything amiss, then the act is considered very successful.
And so, with Sun Jian's various interventions, the wound was disinfected, cleaned, sutured, and re-bandaged!
An oxygen machine was plugged into Emperor Ganwu, and various medications were administered as needed. Even adrenaline was injected into the outside of Emperor Ganwu's thigh.
All we need to do now is wait for the various medications to take effect.
Intravenous infusion may be slower, but adrenaline has an immediate effect.
Sure enough, after a short while, Emperor Ganwu's complexion improved significantly compared to before.
His originally pale and dull face visibly became rosier.
