Chapter 25 Divine Healer, One Silver Needle Shocks the Entire Audience!
The passengers were in a panic; some tried to pinch his philtrum, while others tried to help him up. The scene was chaotic.
"Don't touch him!"
A clear shout, like a thunderclap, silenced the chaotic scene.
Su Yue had somehow found her way to the center of the crowd. She half-squatted beside the old man, her eyes frighteningly calm.
She made her judgment with just a glance.
This is a typical case of suffocation caused by acute asthma, with severe airway spasm and symptoms of respiratory failure.
If no action is taken, the person will be gone in less than three minutes!
"I'm a doctor, I can save him!" Su Yue's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.
Everyone around was stunned.
"you?"
"Young lady, don't joke around, this is a matter of life and death!"
A medic who was traveling with the vehicle also squeezed in, panting. When he saw Su Yue, he immediately frowned.
"Which organization are you from? Do you have a medical license? Don't cause trouble here!"
As he spoke, he reached out to pull Su Yue away.
Su Yue was too lazy to waste words with them; time was of the essence!
She suddenly raised her hand and swiftly pulled a hairpin from her coiled hair.
It was a white jade phoenix hairpin with a smooth, warm texture, a keepsake left to her by her mother.
But to outsiders, it was just an ordinary silver hairpin.
Amidst everyone's horrified gazes, Su Yue held the old man's head firmly with one hand, and with the other hand gripping the jade hairpin, without hesitation, she precisely stabbed it into a depression below the old man's throat, between the thyroid cartilage and cricoid cartilage!
"Pfft—"
A slight sound, like flesh being pierced, made the air in the entire carriage freeze.
"You! You're insane! You're killing people!" The medic screamed in terror.
The surrounding passengers gasped, and some timid women covered their eyes, unable to look any longer.
However, Su Yue turned a deaf ear to all of this.
With focused expression and a steady wrist, she inserted the jade hairpin to the predetermined depth and then gently twisted it.
A miracle has happened!
A dull "clunk" sound came from the old man's throat, as if something obstructing his throat had been punctured.
The next second, a thick stream of foamy phlegm gushed out from that small hole!
His chest, which had stopped heaving, suddenly trembled, and then he greedily inhaled a breath of fresh air with a whooshing sound!
"Inhale—exhale—exhale—exhale—"
Although faint, it was definitely the sound of breathing!
The terrifying purplish-red color on the old man's face was fading at a visible speed, slowly restoring his color.
The entire carriage was completely silent.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, their mouths agape, as if they could fit an egg in their mouths, looking at the scene before them in disbelief.
The medic who had just accused Su Yue of murder was now flushed red, as if he had been slapped several times, and couldn't utter a single word.
What... what kind of miraculous medical skills are these?
Could a single hairpin have pulled a person back from the brink of death?
Is this some kind of movie shoot?!
Ignoring the shock of the crowd, Su Yue pulled out the jade hairpin, wiped the bloodstains on the cloth, and put it back in her hair.
Then, she extended two slender fingers, joined them like swords, and pressed rapidly on several major acupoints on the old man's chest, such as the Tanzhong and Tiantu acupoints, with a unique and powerful rhythm.
Her technique was fast but not chaotic; it appeared gentle but was actually powerful and penetrating, with each press being incredibly precise.
A few minutes later, the old man, who had been in a semi-conscious state, let out a long "hmm," his eyelids twitched a few times, and he slowly opened his eyes!
"Where...where am I?"
The old man's eyes were still somewhat dazed, but his speech was already clear.
"He's alive! He's really alive!"
"My God! A miracle doctor! This young girl is a miracle doctor!"
A thunderous murmur and gasps of amazement erupted instantly inside the carriage!
The medic who had just questioned Su Yue was now blushing, so ashamed she wanted to disappear into the ground.
He squeezed in front of Su Yue, adopting an extremely humble posture, even showing a hint of flattery and awe.
"This...comrade, no, doctor! You...you just used...acupuncture?"
He stammered, his eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge.
Su Yue glanced at him and said calmly, "Cricothyroid membrane puncture is for emergency use. As for the following, it's traditional Chinese massage to improve blood circulation."
She only said two sentences, but every word exuded undeniable professionalism.
The medic was completely bewildered, yet found it profound and mysterious. He knew that his rudimentary first aid knowledge was utterly inadequate compared to what the medic was saying.
"Doctor, is there anything special about this puncture? Why are you able to get results with just one needle?"
Seeing that his attitude was sincere, Su Yue gave him a few more pointers.
"Identifying the acupoints requires accuracy, a steady hand, and the correct depth. A slight deviation will puncture an artery, and the person will die. A slight deviation will damage the esophagus, with equally serious consequences. This is a delicate skill; do not attempt it lightly without practicing thousands of times."
A few words, spoken casually, yet they sent chills down the spine of the medic.
Thousands of times!
Only then did he realize the terrifying amount of practice behind that seemingly casual move!
His gaze toward Su Yue completely transformed from shame to utter admiration.
"I've learned a lot! Thank you for your guidance, doctor!"
He bowed respectfully to Su Yue.
"Old Zhou! How are you feeling?"
The old man's companion, a middle-aged man in a gray Zhongshan suit with an imposing face, had also recovered from his shock. He supported the old man, his voice trembling with lingering fear.
"Jianguo... I'm fine, just a little tightness in my chest." The old man weakly waved his hand, then looked at Su Yue, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Young comrade... thank you... thank you for saving my old life..."
The middle-aged man, referred to as "Jianguo," immediately stood up straight and bowed solemnly to Su Yue.
"Comrade, my name is Shen Jianguo. This is my father, Shen Congwen. We are deeply grateful for your help today; our Shen family will never forget this kindness!"
His voice was steady and powerful, carrying the air of someone who had long held a high position.
After saying that, he took out a small notebook from his shirt pocket, tore off a page, took out a pen from his pocket, quickly wrote something on it, and then handed it to Su Yue with both hands.
"Comrade, this is a business card with my address and workplace in Beijing. If you ever come to Beijing in the future, and need anything, as long as it's within my power, I, Shen Jianguo, will not refuse!"
These words were spoken with great conviction.
Those around could tell that this was not just a polite remark, but a weighty promise.
Su Yue's heart stirred slightly.
She wasn't looking for any reward; she just felt that the father and son had an extraordinary demeanor, unlike ordinary people.
She took the note and looked down at it.
There were two lines of text written on it.
"Shen Jianguo, Chief Engineer of Beijing Machinery Research Institute."
Below is a more detailed address.
Shen Jianguo!
Beijing General Research Institute of Mechanical Engineering!
Su Yue's pupils suddenly contracted!
This name, the information on this business card, struck her memory like a bolt of lightning!
In the wooden box left by my mother, among the several handwritten letters to old friends in Beijing, one of the recipients was an old leader surnamed Shen from the Beijing Machinery Research Institute!
The letter also specifically mentioned that this Uncle Shen has an exceptionally outstanding son named Shen Jianguo, who is a key scientific and technological talent cultivated by the state!
This... this is like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to you effortlessly!
Unexpectedly, simply saving someone on the train led to him encountering the son of his mother's family friend!
Su Yue suppressed the turmoil in her heart, looked up at Shen Jianguo, and her eyes held a hint of inquiry.
"Engineer Shen, do you know a lady named Chen Shuting?"
She tentatively asked her mother's name.
Shen Jianguo paused for a moment, then pondered carefully, "Chen Shuting..."
He murmured the name, his brow furrowing slightly, as if searching for something in distant memories.
Just as he was about to speak—
"Squeak—!!!"
A piercingly loud metallic scraping sound suddenly pierced through the entire carriage!
The train braked suddenly without warning!
The immense inertia caused everyone to lose their balance and stagger.
The luggage rack was falling down with a clatter, and screams and shouts of surprise rose and fell!
Su Yue reacted quickly, grabbing the edge of the bed to steady herself.
Outside the carriage, a chaotic burst of gunfire and desperate shouts followed!
"Bang! Bang bang!"
"Don't move! All of you, get down on the ground!"
