In a daze, Liu Xiaoyuan heard that it was raining heavily outside, and the rain was hitting the roof tiles, making a crackling sound.
Holy crap! It started raining. It was fine yesterday, sunny and bright, and then it started pouring rain all night. If this rain doesn't stop, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave tomorrow.
"You're awake?" Su Yu suddenly asked.
Liu Xiaoyuan hummed in agreement and said, "It's raining, and quite heavily at that. I'm afraid we won't be able to leave tomorrow."
"If we can't go now, we can go the day after tomorrow. As long as we can get to the Poisonous Monster Conference, that's fine," Su Yu said.
As soon as it got light, Liu Xiaoyuan got up and opened the door to find that Xiaoxin was already up and preparing to wash rice and cook.
"Good morning!" Liu Xiaoyuan stretched and greeted Xiaoxin with a smile.
Xiao Xin glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan and continued washing the rice, leaving Liu Xiaoyuan feeling awkward and like he was being snubbed.
Liu Xiaoyuan looked at the heavy rain outside, the rainwater flowing down the eaves in a beautiful way.
"Cough cough..." Just then, another violent coughing sound came from Grandma Xiaoxin's room, accompanied by heavy breathing.
Even Liu Xiaoyuan, who had no medical background, knew that Xiaoxin's grandmother was in danger upon hearing this.
Xiao Xin didn't even bother washing the rice; she immediately ran into her grandmother's room.
"Grandma, what's wrong? What's wrong? Don't scare Xiaoxin." Xiaoxin looked worried, tears streaming down her face.
"Grandma, take your medicine, take your medicine!" In her panic, Xiaoxin poured out the pills from the medicine bottle and fed one to her grandmother, but it had no effect.
Seeing this, Xiaoxin was about to pour out another pill for her grandmother to take when Liu Xiaoyuan quickly grabbed Xiaoxin's hand. Xiaoxin turned her head and said angrily, "Let go of my hand, I need my grandmother to feed me the medicine."
Every medicine has its side effects. When used properly, medicine can be a good thing that can cure diseases, but if used in excess, it can become a tool for killing.
Xiaoxin's grandmother has already taken one pill, but it has no effect, which proves that Xiaoxin's grandmother's condition is no longer something that the pill can control.
No matter how many pills you give, it won't help; it will only make things worse.
"Are you trying to kill your grandma?" Liu Xiaoyuan understood Xiaoxin's feelings, but he had to shout loudly to wake her up.
Liu Xiaoyuan's shout woke Xiaoxin up. Looking at her grandmother who was coughing incessantly, tears streamed down her face like beads from a broken string.
"Let me take a look at your grandmother's condition. I have some medical knowledge," Liu Xiaoyuan said.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Although Liu Xiaoyuan is not a Lei Feng, he is not a cold-hearted person either. Since he has encountered such a situation, he will help if he can.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately summoned a highly skilled physician through the God-level Invincible System.
When Xiao Xin learned that Liu Xiaoyuan knew medicine, she looked at him in surprise and asked, "You really know medicine?"
Liu Xiaoyuan nodded and said, "I really can, please believe me."
Xiao Xin was at her wit's end and could only trust Liu Xiaoyuan. She gripped his arm tightly with her small hands and said, "Please, you must save my grandma, please, you must save my grandma..."
"I will do my best, don't worry. Okay, okay, don't delay my treatment time," Liu Xiaoyuan said.
Even the most skilled doctors cannot guarantee a cure, because there are too many unforeseen circumstances.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, Xiaoxin immediately released her grip on Liu Xiaoyuan's arm and made way for him to treat her grandmother.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately took Xiaoxin's grandmother's pulse and found that her illness was not difficult to treat. It could be cured after surgery at a major hospital, and it was nothing serious.
However, there are no scalpels or medical equipment here right now, so it's impossible to perform surgery. We can only temporarily control Grandma Xiaoxin's condition.
Liu Xiaoyuan skillfully moved a few acupoints on Grandma Xiaoxin's body, and Grandma Xiaoxin's condition gradually changed. Her cough was not as bad as before, and her breathing gradually returned to normal.
Seeing this, Xiaoxin, who was standing nearby, burst into tears of joy again.
Su Yu, who had entered the room at some point, was astonished to see Liu Xiaoyuan's skill. She hadn't expected Liu Xiaoyuan to be so good at medicine.
After stabilizing Xiaoxin's grandmother's condition, Liu Xiaoyuan said to Xiaoxin, "Go find an umbrella and a raincoat. Your grandmother needs surgery. Hurry up and take her to the hospital for surgery."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xin said with a troubled expression, "I... my family doesn't have money, we can't afford the surgery."
Indeed, judging from the furnishings of Xiaoxin's home, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as destitute. Asking her to take out money for surgery is not making things difficult for her.
“I’ll pay, I have the money, I’ll pay for you!” Liu Xiaoyuan blurted out.
After saying it, Liu Xiaoyuan regretted it a little. Although the surgery was not a very big or complicated one, with the postoperative expenses, it would cost at least two or three hundred thousand yuan.
Now, just because of one sentence I uttered, two or three hundred thousand yuan is gone. Anyone would feel heartbroken in my shoes.
But then I thought, since I'd already said it, it wouldn't be a manly thing to go back on my word. Besides, two or three hundred thousand yuan could save Grandma Xiaoxin's life, so it was worth it.
"What are you standing there for? Go find an umbrella and a raincoat!" Liu Xiaoyuan urged when he saw Xiaoxin still standing there in a daze.
Xiao Xin then ran out of the room to find an umbrella and raincoat at home.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, won't this delay our plans?" Su Yu asked with some concern.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Anyway, it's raining today so we can't go. Besides, we're rescuing people, not doing anything else."
After Liu Xiaoyuan said that, Su Yu immediately fell silent, because anyone with a conscience would do the same thing as Liu Xiaoyuan in such a situation.
Soon, Xiaoxin found an umbrella and a raincoat, and Liu Xiaoyuan immediately told Xiaoxin to put the raincoat on her grandmother.
After Xiaoxin put the raincoat on her grandmother, Liu Xiaoyuan carried her grandmother on his back and said to Xiaoxin, "Hold the umbrella properly, make sure your grandmother doesn't get wet in the rain."
And so, Liu Xiaoyuan and his group braved the heavy rain to reach the village playground. They first removed the raincoat from Grandma Xiaoxin's body, then opened the back door of the car and let Grandma Xiaoxin sit down.
Afterwards, Liu Xiaoyuan and Su Yu also got into the car, but their clothes were already wet and very uncomfortable to wear.
But there was no other way to save lives, given how heavy the rain was today.
