"She's bleeding!"
A gasp drew the attention of all the doctors in the room.
A winding trail of bright red blood slowly flowed from the edge of Dr. Wu's nostril.
This is bad!
Lu Qiqi quickly administered a few more acupuncture needles, and whispers came from behind her.
"Will this really work?"
"I don't know, let's wait and see. If the renowned physician Luo, known for his 'ghost hands,' were here, he could save her even if she had just been to the gates of hell."
In other words, the Lu Qiqi in front of us might not be the same.
Dr. Wu's illness came on fiercely and rapidly. If we couldn't hold on for long, it wouldn't just be bloodshed, but tears from his loved ones.
Lu Qiqi was completely focused on the silver needles in her hand and had no time to pay attention to idle chatter.
She held the silver needle with her thumb, index finger, and middle finger. After locating the acupoint, she skillfully used her finger and wrist strength to insert the silver needle into the skin and make it stand upright on the skin.
"Still bleeding!"
Dr. Wu's nose was still bleeding, and Dr. Qin tried to wipe it away with a handkerchief, but it seemed like he couldn't stop.
Doctor Qin looked at Doctor Wu, whose face was pale, and whispered, "Miss Lu."
The way she called out "Miss Lu" was full of vicissitudes, as if she had placed all of Doctor Wu's hopes on Lu Qiqi.
Lu Qiqi completely ignored the gaze that Doctor Qin cast at her and continued to administer acupuncture to Doctor Wu without even raising her head.
Just then, there was a commotion outside the door.
Everyone inside the house looked outside, and Lu Qiqi was no exception.
The footsteps drew closer.
It's Dr. Gao.
Disappointed, Lu Qiqi sighed almost imperceptibly, and then continued to administer acupuncture to Doctor Wu.
"You're letting a young girl like her perform acupuncture? That's laughable!"
As soon as Dr. Gao entered the room, he expressed his dissatisfaction with Lu Qiqi's acupuncture, but none of the doctors in the room responded to him.
"If she accidentally hurts Dr. Wu, let's see how you handle the consequences!"
Upon hearing Dr. Gao's words, Dr. Qin advised, "Dr. Gao, please speak later. Miss Lu is receiving acupuncture; please do not disturb her."
"I think you're all getting senile, letting a little girl lead you by the nose."
While giving Dr. Wu acupuncture, Lu Qiqi suppressed her anger, but Dr. Gao kept babbling on and on like a fighting rooster.
Lu Qiqi inserted the last silver needle into Doctor Wu's acupoint, then suddenly looked up and said firmly, "If you can do it, then you do it!"
When Doctor Gao suddenly met Lu Qiqi's sharp gaze, his heart clenched, and he froze on the spot, motionless.
Before he could react, Lu Qiqi added, "If you can't do it, then shut up!"
Doctor Gao was already dissatisfied with Lu Qiqi, this young girl. Why should he have to put up with her attitude when there were so many doctors here? He was about to argue with her.
Urgent footsteps could be heard outside.
"The medicine is here! The medicine is here!"
Li Changlong carried the medicine and walked quickly into the house, and the other doctors made way for him.
"Second brother, I'll pull out the needle, then you can feed me the medicine."
After saying that, Lu Qiqi began to remove the needles.
As the last needle was removed, Dr. Wu suddenly opened his eyes.
While the man was awake, Li Changlong quickly helped Dr. Wu sit up and forced him to drink the medicine in one gulp.
"How is it?" Doctor Qin asked Lu Qiqi anxiously.
Lu Qiqi glanced at Doctor Qin indifferently and said, "Wait for the medicine to take effect."
Dr. Qin was also confused with anxiety. As a doctor himself, how could he not know that even the most potent medicine would not cause a reaction immediately after being ingested?
"I was too hasty," Dr. Qin said sheepishly, but his eyes were fixed on Dr. Wu.
A moment later, Dr. Wu began to cough violently.
Lu Qiqi quickly said, "Help him up, don't let him lie flat."
When the patient lies flat, it can cause violent coughing, which can easily lead to choking and death if the patient is unconscious.
Young and vigorous, Li Changlong quickly helped Doctor Wu up.
Lu Qiqi gently patted Doctor Wu's back and pressed hard on the acupoints on his hands to help him breathe smoothly.
Before long, Dr. Wu's cough gradually subsided, and Lu Qiqi also released the acupoints.
"Place it flat."
Once the person stops coughing, they should naturally lie down.
Lu Qiqi placed her hand on Doctor Wu's wrist again, feeling the difference in his pulse compared to before. Now, the weight in her chest finally lifted.
"It's alright. Just take the medicine on time, and you can change the prescription after completing one course of treatment."
As soon as Lu Qiqi spoke, Doctor Qin quickly took two steps forward, grabbed Lu Qiqi's hands with his old hands, and said, "Thank you, young lady, thank you for saving Brother Wu. When Brother Wu wakes up, I will definitely ask him to thank you properly for saving his life."
"I was blind and ignorant before, and my skills were not good enough. I misunderstood the young lady's prescription. I am very grateful that you did not hold a grudge and were willing to lend a helping hand to save Doctor Wu."
Dr. Qin spoke with tears streaming down his face, as if Lu Qiqi had made things difficult for him.
Lu Qiqi's right hand was sore from Dr. Qin's grip that she had to use some force to pull it back and regain her freedom.
"Since Dr. Wu came with us, he must return to Luzhou Prefecture together. I will naturally do my best to help him. There is no need to say more about his great kindness. Please take good care of Dr. Wu."
After saying that, Lu Qiqi was about to leave.
Dr. Gao happened to be standing right in front of Lu Qiqi, showing no intention of moving an inch.
Lu Qiqi looked up at him and said, word by word, "A good dog doesn't block the way!"
"You!" Doctor Gao was so angry at being insulted that he raised his hand to slap Lu Qiqi's face.
Ah~
Before Doctor Gao's hand could even fall, Lu Qiqi kicked him, sending Doctor Gao flying a meter away before he collapsed sprawled on the ground.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, everyone was at a loss for what to do.
After looking at each other blankly, two young doctors quickly stepped forward, squatted down, and helped Dr. Gao to his feet.
Lu Qiqi looked down at him and said, "Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. So many lives have been lost in Tianxin Village, you will have to pay for it eventually. Just wait and see."
After saying that, Lu Qiqi left the house.
The group was left behind, not understanding what Lu Qiqi meant.
Li Changlong followed closely behind, giving Doctor Gao a fierce glare before leaving.
Dr. Gao's face had already turned pale upon hearing Lu Qiqi's words, so he couldn't even notice Li Changlong's gaze.
The two doctors helped Dr. Gao to his feet, but Dr. Gao's legs went weak, and he almost tripped the two doctors as well.
He straightened up and stared intently outside. On his white shirt, a footprint was clearly visible right in the center of his chest.
"Pah! What is that?!"
Upon hearing Dr. Gao's outburst, the two doctors couldn't help but frown and simultaneously released their hands from supporting him.
Lu Qiqi walked out, and Li Changlong hurried a few steps to catch up.
"Qiqi, what exactly did Doctor Gao do to make you so angry?" Li Changlong asked.
After leaving Doctor Wu's courtyard, Lu Qiqi's anger had subsided considerably, but her words still burned with fury: "The bastards he did deserve to die a hundred times over!"
