But a child is a child after all. Even if the boy wanted to use a lot of force, what strength could his little hands have? The doctor was amused by the boy's squeezing.
He cleared his throat, enjoying the massage, and continued, "Later, after I became a legendary healer..."
Although he had become an immortal and should have lived a carefree and happy life, Chu Yunci still wanted to help the world. He often disguised himself as a mortal to practice medicine, using the medical name "Liuyun".
"Everyone hurry over! The legendary healer Liuyun is here again to provide free medical consultations!"
It was as if his words had caused a great stir. As soon as he finished speaking, the pedestrians around him disappeared in a flash.
Some people immediately went home to help their sick family members go, while others left their belongings behind and ran there... In short, the streets and alleys were packed with people.
The free clinic will be held over three days, from 7 AM to 5 PM.
Since he didn't have a clinic, he sat down at an inn, booked a room, and began seeing patients.
The innkeeper was a kind-hearted man. During the days he provided free medical consultations, he would go out to distribute porridge. Some people who had been queuing all morning and were hungry could get a bowl. Others, poor people who were starving, would also come to get a few bowls of porridge.
As the third day of the free clinic ended and he was about to return to Liuyun Peak, a man rushed over anxiously, saying, "Divine doctor, divine doctor, please save my wife!"
It turned out that the man's wife was in critical condition due to a difficult childbirth. The midwife, seeing the complications, feared for the lives of both mother and child and ran away without even taking her payment. Nearby doctors, upon hearing it was an obstetrics case, also said they were helpless. In his desperation, he heard about the free clinic and rushed over, hoping to try his luck.
If even the most skilled healer can't save them, then they can only accept their fate...
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunci immediately asked for the address. A wisp of white mist swept by, and the two of them arrived at an intersection behind their destination.
The white mist lasted only a moment, and when the man opened his eyes again, he saw the intersection behind his house.
He murmured in surprise, "I clearly remember needing to cross four intersections to get to my house, how come it's only one more intersection away..."
Chu Yunci laughed and said, "Perhaps you were too anxious and miscounted the intersection. Hurry up and take me to see your wife."
The man then realized what had happened and, without worrying about whether he had misremembered, quickly led Chu Yunci to his home.
The house was small, simply enclosed by a fence. The entrance led to the farmer's vegetable garden, and to the right were small poultry such as chickens and ducks. Rows of golden corn hung on the walls. This must be the most basic farmhouse.
Looking at the house, Chu Yunci felt as if he had been transported to another world.
How long has it been since he's lived such a simple and ordinary life...
The man had already led her inside. His slightly clenched fists revealed his nervousness. He cautiously asked, "Miracle doctor, do you really have a way to save my wife?"
Chu Yunci smiled and patted his shoulder, reassuring him, "Don't worry, your wife and child will be fine."
An invisible force seemed to soothe the man, and his clenched fists finally relaxed.
Chu Yunci entered the inner room, the stench of blood filling his nostrils, and the pregnant woman on the bed was on the verge of death. He quickly stepped forward and used his immortal power to protect the last thread of the pregnant woman's heart.
He had delivered babies before and had encountered many difficult births, but this was the first time he had ever faced such a situation.
Dystocia due to abnormal fetal position usually involves breech and cephalic presentations, such as occiput posterior and occiput transverse. Transverse position may also occur, but it is often a transitional position, and most cases will eventually turn into breech or cephalic presentation. Occasionally, there may be a persistent transverse position.
This pregnant woman's abnormal fetal position was clearly due to carrying twins. Normally, she could have a vaginal delivery, but because the twins were being delivered at the same time, it resulted in a difficult labor.
If it were him in the past, he probably wouldn't have been able to solve such a difficult problem either.
But now that he has immortal power, if he uses it to bring one fetus back first, and then brings out the other fetus after it has been successfully born, he can ensure the safety of both mother and child.
Thinking of this, a gentle stream of immortal energy appeared in his hand, temporarily lulling the "disobedient" infant to sleep. Meanwhile, immortal energy swirled around the other side, slowly enveloping the infant and gently drawing it out. He did all this with utmost care, and even with his superb medical skills, he couldn't help but feel a chill when faced with such a situation.
Fortunately, the two babies were delivered successfully in the end.
Despite the bloodstains, he carried the baby to the anxious man waiting outside and congratulated him, saying, "Everything went smoothly, mother and child are safe, they are twins."
The man was stunned at first, seemingly still in a daze, even forgetting about his child, before rushing inside to thank his wife.
Chu Yunci was taken aback. Looking at the two children in her arms and then at the man's actions, she suddenly understood something.
He must have loved his wife very much.
Chu Yunci said, "Your wife is exhausted from childbirth, let her rest first. You go and check on your child."
What he didn't say was that he fed his wife a magic pill to keep her alive.
It seems she had been in labor for a long time, and by the time they arrived, she was barely clinging to life. If it weren't for her love for her child, she probably wouldn't have made it to his arrival.
Women are inherently weak, but become strong when they become mothers.
Therefore, he gave her a magic pill, which would not only prolong her life but also prevent her from suffering from illness and pain.
It can be considered fate.
At this moment, the baby in his arms started crying loudly. Only then did the man realize that he had two children. He walked over in a daze and almost tripped over himself.
Chu Yunci handed the child to him, gave him some instructions, and then left.
Thus, another limerick circulated among the mortals:
There is a physician immortal on Liuyun Peak, who has just arrived in the mortal world.
They have been providing free medical consultations one after another, relieving people from suffering and distress.
In acts of kindness done without expecting anything in return, the miraculous healing power is boundless.
People praise him as the Immortal of Flowing Clouds, but he laughs heartily to the heavens.
...
The boy was unhappy and simply stopped the massage. He said seriously to the doctor, "Master, what you're talking about is clearly your own story. Have you written your experiences into a storybook so that it can be widely circulated?"
The doctor suddenly chuckled and said, "Hey? My good disciple, you've really given me an idea! I could definitely write a storybook, a biography of myself, and call it 'The Legend of the Immortal Physician'..."
Seeing that his disciple seemed to have an impulse to "betray the sect," he quickly shut up and coaxed him gently, "Good disciple, look, A-Cheng needs to soak for forty-nine days. As for this story, I might not even finish telling it in forty-nine days. Your master is twenty thousand years old now, and I can tell this story for at least a hundred thousand episodes..."
"Stop, stop, stop, alright, alright, I'll try to talk less about myself and tell you about A-Cheng, but A-Cheng's matter is not easy to talk about..." The Immortal Physician glanced at his disciple, then looked at A-Cheng soaking in the medicinal pool, and hesitated a bit.
After all, Acheng and his apprentice had some history...
