Su Hua didn't care about anything else and hurriedly unbuttoned Su Sui's jacket. Su Sui had suffered a severe head injury and lost too much blood, leaving her with only a breath left. If Su Hua had arrived a quarter of an hour later, even a miracle wouldn't have been able to save her.
She had to use silver needles and spatial water droplets to keep him alive before Xiao Jinhan bought the medicinal herbs.
Fortunately, because she had been thinking about detoxifying Xiao Jinhan through acupuncture points, she had kept the silver needles that Doctor Zhou had given her in her bracelet space. Now, they came in handy.
Su Hua took out her silver needle pouch.
Eight long and fifteen short silver needles were lined up in a row, each one gleaming with a bright white light.
Since a person who has suffered a head injury cannot move freely, Su Hua simply lay half-prone on the ground, picked up the silver needles, and inserted them into eight acupoints on Su Sui in sequence: Baihui, Fengchi, Wangu, Tianzhu, Shangxing, Tongtian, Yuzhen, and Fengfu.
The human brain has a complex structure, and its acupoints are numerous and varied.
Performing acupuncture on acupoints in the human brain is a great challenge for doctors.
The slightest error in the pressure applied during needlework can lead to disastrous consequences.
The art of acupuncture with silver needles was almost lost during the reign of Yu the Great. Just as the old doctor said, they were helpless in Su Sui's current condition and had to prepare for the worst.
Time passed by, bit by bit.
After a round of acupuncture, Su Hua was covered in sweat, as if she had been pulled out of a pool of sweat, her whole body drenched.
But she had no time to rest.
Although the bleeding has stopped, Su Sui's condition is still very bad, and she has difficulty even swallowing on her own.
She could only take out a small bamboo tube from her sleeve, pry open Su Sui's chin, and slowly transfer the spatial water droplets into Su Sui's throat through the small bamboo tube. Although most of the water still flowed out of the corners of her mouth, it was not a waste as long as Su Sui could drink one or two drops.
Although these water droplets in the space do not have the effect of bringing the dead back to life, they can greatly stimulate the vitality of the human body.
After feeding her a cup of spatial water droplets, Su Hua heard light footsteps outside.
Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door and Xiao Jinhan's deep voice, "Miss Su, the bath tub, wooden basin, handkerchiefs, and medicinal herbs have all been bought and are placed at the door. There is boiling water on the stove; would you like some to be brought over?"
Upon hearing this, Su Hua immediately agreed, "Thank you for your help, Young Master Xiao."
I was so focused on saving Su Sui that I almost forgot that if so much water appeared in the room for no reason, it might arouse suspicion. Besides, it's only early April and the weather is a bit chilly. Soaking Su Sui in cold water in the room wouldn't be a good idea.
Xiao Jinhan moved quickly. Su Hua put away her needles and opened the door, only to see a half-full bathtub of steaming water placed at the doorway.
Beside the hot water were a clean wooden basin, a handkerchief, and neatly arranged bags of medicinal herbs. Even the mortar and pestle and medicine pot that she hadn't mentioned were there. Next to all these items was a brand new fine cotton dress.
When the man saw Su Hua's gaze, he explained gently, "I saw that Miss Su's clothes were stained with blood, so I asked Yu Feng to run to the clothing store when he bought the wooden bucket, thinking that it might come in handy."
"Thank you." The girl raised her almond-shaped eyes slightly and looked at the man standing far away by the courtyard.
My mind immediately calmed down a bit.
She dared not delay any longer and quickly moved everything at the door into the house. Under the combined effects of acupuncture and spatial water droplets, Su Sui's pulse was much stronger than before, but the wound on her forehead was too large.
If not treated promptly, there is a high possibility of malignant infection developing later.
The nine medicinal herbs, namely, human hair charcoal, palm charcoal, madder root, cattail pollen, Bletilla rhizome, mugwort leaf, agrimony, hearth soil, and burnet root, are all holy medicines for stopping bleeding and preventing infection.
Su Hua used the spatial water droplets to wet a handkerchief and gently wiped away the bloodstains on the woman's forehead.
The water in the wooden basin turned red again and again.
Outside the main house, a cool spring breeze passed through the eaves, seemingly diluting the strong smell of blood, while the previously sticky air was now filled with a refreshing fragrance.
Yu Feng stood with his sword in his arms, and couldn't help but twitch his nose and secretly glance at Xiao Jinhan.
I feel like this scent is somewhat familiar.
Before he could figure it out, Yu Yu walked in carrying two figures, one in white and one in red. "Sir, I've brought this kid from the Wang family back. Should we lock him up with Old Man Wang and his wife, or just throw him on the ground?"
Yu Feng's lips twitched as he looked at the figure whose outer garment was tangled together with his hands.
Why did you bring this filthy stuff along?
Speaking of this, Yu Yu's baby face darkened. "I only wanted to catch one, but this kid from the Wang family and this male prostitute have been inseparable on the bed since dawn until midday. They're like conjoined twins, how can I separate them?"
He squatted on the wall of Nanfeng Pavilion and watched the scene for two or three hours.
Everyone else at the scene was exhausted, but he was.
My eyes were already dirty from looking at them for so long.
If these two hadn't been so tightly bound together, he wouldn't have dared to offend his master's eyes, no matter how bold he was.
Xiao Jinhan's brow twitched slightly upon hearing this.
He glanced at the tightly closed main house and immediately waved to Yu Feng, "You go with him and find a way to separate the two of them. Lock them up with Old Man Wang and his wife for now, and we'll talk about it when Miss Su comes out."
Miss Su?
Upon hearing this, Yu Yu's eyes flickered, "Fatty..."
He had barely uttered the word "fat" when Yu Feng dragged him away.
Inside the main house.
Su Sui's forehead wound had been bandaged, and she had taken off her clothes and was soaking in the bathtub.
The water in the bathtub consisted partly of boiling water that Xiao Jinhan had just brought from Old Wang's stove, and the rest was all water from Su Hua's spatial storage. Su Hua couldn't be sure exactly what the effect of bathing someone in the spatial water droplets would be.
