Early this morning, Li Dong's wife Xia Rong, who was more than nine months pregnant, suddenly went into labor. Li Dong hurriedly asked a midwife to come over. Along the way, the midwife was not in a hurry, which made Li Dong very anxious and he kept urging her.
The midwife said, "Why are you in such a hurry? How can a woman give birth so quickly? It will take at least a day or two."
When they arrived at Li's house, the midwife washed her hands and went into the delivery room to deliver Xia Rong. However, she discovered that the baby was in an abnormal position, with her feet facing downwards.
The birth canal is so small that the baby can only use its round head to clear the way out. But now the baby's feet are facing downwards, one foot is out and the other is still stuck inside.
This situation is the most troublesome.
However, the midwife was very experienced and did not panic. She reached in and tucked one of the baby's feet back in, while her other hand kept rubbing the woman's belly to help her correct the fetal position.
Unexpectedly, during the delivery, the mother suddenly started bleeding heavily!
This scared the midwife.
Heavy bleeding may result in two deaths if you are not careful!
At this time, we can only try our best to keep one.
The midwife went out and briefly explained the situation, then asked a fatal question at the end: "Save the older one or the younger one?"
Li Dong's mother was eager to have a grandson, so she asked, "Is my wife's belly a boy or a girl?"
If it is a boy, then you must keep him young. If you lose your wife, you can always marry another one later. But if you lose your grandson, you may not be able to have one in the future.
If it is a girl, there is no point in giving birth to her. It is better to keep the wife and let her give birth to a grandson in the future.
The midwife said, "How would I know if the baby hasn't been born yet? Make a decision quickly. The people inside can't wait."
In fact, the midwife already knew whether Xia Rong was carrying a boy or a girl, but if she told it out now, it might become the death warrant of the mother. Wouldn't she, the midwife, become the indirect murderer?
It would be better for her to avoid such injustice.
Li Dong had a deep bond with his wife, so he said without hesitation, "Bao Da! Mother-in-law, please save my wife."
The midwife was unsure, "I'll try my best."
When we walked in, we saw that the mattress under the woman in labor was soaked with blood. She was lying there with a pale face and her breathing had become weak. It was really horrifying.
The midwife's heart skipped a beat and she went over to take a look, "This, this is hopeless..."
"Dongzi, take your wife to the clinic quickly. I can't save her." The midwife said this hurriedly, fearing that she might be responsible for someone's life. She didn't even ask for the birth fee and walked away with her bound feet.
Li Dongruo was struck by lightning. He stood there in a daze for a while, then he reacted and rushed into the house. A strong smell of blood rushed into his nose, making him panic and his legs weak, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Wife, wife..."
He called out several times, but the person lying on the bed did not respond.
Li Dong's hands were shaking so badly that his mother came in and slapped him on the back: "What are you still standing there for? Send her to the clinic!"
He also reminded her: "If it's a boy, you must keep him for your mother, ah!"
Li Dong didn't listen to what he said at all. He picked up his wife and rushed out. He first went to the nearest clinic near his home, but when the doctor saw Xia Rong's condition, he shook his head and refused to admit her.
"I can't cure this, go find someone else."
Childbirth is always like going through the gates of hell. If you can get through it, everything will be fine. If you can't, there may be two deaths.
And hemorrhage is the most difficult hurdle to overcome at the gate of hell.
Li Dong carried his wife to the next clinic, running all the way, not daring to stop at all.
I went to one clinic after another, but no one was willing to accept me.
The woman in labor looked like she had one foot in the grave and could not be saved. The child inside had been trapped in there for so long, it was probably dead. If she took the child in, there would be two deaths!
If a quarrel breaks out, the clinic will be in trouble for nothing. Why bother?
Li Dong became more and more desperate, and his wife's body in his arms gradually became cold.
"Ah--" Li Dong howled in pain towards the sky and knocked his knees to the ground.
Just then, he saw his wife's belly move slightly, and the child was still alive!
The desperate and grieving man rekindled a glimmer of hope and walked quickly on the street, looking for a clinic. Finally, a clinic appeared in front of him.
Then, the previous scene appeared.
Xue Huan glanced at the pregnant woman who had already died in the man's arms. Without further ado, she stood up and said, "Come in quickly and put her on the bed slowly."
Hearing this, Li Dong was overjoyed. Finally, a doctor was willing to help!
Xue Huan took Li Dong and quickly came to the inner room, which was set up as an operating room.
Of course, the equipment is definitely not as complete as that of a modern hospital, but it has everything it needs. If there is something missing, she will use cultivation products to replace it.
For example, for lighting, you can use spirit stone lamps, and for sterilization, you can set up formations to ensure that there is no dirt or bacteria in it.
Li Dong gently placed his wife on the snow-white bed. Xue Huan drove him out: "Go sit outside and wait for a while. I'll take care of your wife."
Li Dong was very worried, but there was no other way now, so he could only leave the operating room looking back every few steps.
Xue Huan first fed the pregnant woman a resurrection pill. As the name suggests, the resurrection pill can bring a person back to life after taking it. Of course, there is a prerequisite, that is, the person cannot have been dead for more than seven days. If it has been more than seven days, it will be ineffective.
This time, the Resurrection Pill was made by Xue Huan using Yellow Spring Water and countless rare herbs. At the beginning, she only got a small gourd of Yellow Spring Water. Since it was her first time to make the Resurrection Pill, she wasted a lot of Yellow Spring Water at the beginning. It was not until the fifth time that she succeeded in making it.
In the end, only three were obtained.
Being able to refine three of these elixirs that can bring the dead back to life was already a stroke of luck, and Xue Huan did not expect more.
Although the elixir is extremely precious, it can only play its due role when it is effective when taken by humans. This is why Xue Huan would not hesitate to use it on the pregnant woman in front of her.
After taking the pill, the pregnant woman who had died, regained her body temperature, felt warm, the paleness on her face faded, and the bleeding stopped.
The baby in her belly also came back to life because it benefited from the medicine.
But the two of them just survived. There is still a lot to do if we want to save their lives.
Xue Huan fed the pregnant woman another blood-replenishing pill to replenish the large amount of qi and blood she had lost before. Then she probed into the pregnant woman's body with her spiritual sense to check her condition.
At this time, the role of spiritual consciousness is reflected. It is comparable to the eyes of clairvoyance, and can reflect the situation inside the pregnant woman's body to her mind in a subtle way.
The baby was in a feet-down position, which was difficult to come out. In addition, the amniotic fluid in the pregnant woman's body had almost been lost. If the baby was not taken out of the mother's womb immediately, he would face the risk of dying again.
