Chapter 104 There is Still Hope [Second Update]
"Okay... okay... young sir, come with me..." Old Master He was a little excited. When he turned sideways, his hands were clearly trembling slightly.
According to my grandfather's description, Mr. He should be as healthy and strong as his son. If the father and son fight, it is hard to say who will win.
"Grandpa He, you are my grandpa's friend, you can just call me Ruan Xi." "Little Sir" and the like do have a bit of an ancient flavor, but Ruan Xi felt that he could not bear the word "Sir" for the time being, so he quickly corrected the old man.
"Okay! I'll call you by your name, Ruan Xi. If you can, please help Grandpa save him. He's my only son, my only relative. Grandpa doesn't want to lose him again..."
As Mr. He spoke, he choked up again. Anyone could feel the deep love between father and son from him.
"I will try my best." Ruan Xi pursed her lips slightly, her expression looking more serious than ever.
Soon, several people followed Mr. He into a spacious bedroom. On the big bed, a man was lying quietly. He looked 90% like Mr. He, as if they were cut from the same model. If you say that these two are not father and son, I am afraid few people would believe it.
Upon seeing the patient, Ruan Xi immediately transformed into a professional doctor, observing, smelling, asking and feeling the patient, striving for perfection in every step. Of course, all the patient's condition was told by Old Man He. Not to mention the illness, the old man even brought up all the stupid things his son did as a child. If Ruan Xi hadn't stopped him, I'm afraid he would have even let slip whether he wet the bed as a child.
Ruan Xi was speechless after hearing this. Did the old man still remember how old his eldest son was? He was already in his fifties. He couldn't be called a baby just because he wasn't married. He was still a mighty general after all. How could he really take advantage of him being unconscious to expose his stupid childhood mistakes?
I always feel that this father needs to be given some discount!
Ruan Xi sighed silently in his heart, took a deep breath, and prepared to tell the results of his examination.
Seeing his expression, everyone in the room subconsciously quieted down, and even held their breath, for fear of disturbing Ruan Xi's speech.
Ruan Xi didn't notice anything, and it wouldn't matter if he had noticed. After all, when the diagnosis is issued, the family members should be nervous. Whether the result is good or bad, it is worth being nervous.
"Xiao Xi, how is your Uncle He? Can he be cured?" In the end, it was grandpa who couldn't help but take the lead. The expectant look in his eyes made Ruan Xi feel so soft-hearted.
"Grandpa, Grandpa He, Uncle He's external injuries have all healed. The impact on his body is very close to zero. The reason he remains unconscious is actually... poisoning, a blood toxin. If I'm not mistaken, this blood toxin was introduced into Uncle He's body during the attack, either through bullets or other direct contact with his body."
"But we've checked so many times and used the most advanced testing equipment, so why can't we find out that he's been poisoned?" The most advanced testing equipment means that the most comprehensive data analysis can be done. Logically speaking, any problems with the patient's body, regardless of whether they can be cured, will be revealed.
"The poisons can be hidden. Now, they are all hiding here." Ruan Xi pointed at He Jun's chest. The others understood at a glance and felt a chill in their hearts.
This is the heart!
“Then…then…” Old Master He wanted to ask in person whether his son was beyond saving and could only wait to die?
"There is still hope! Grandpa He, please don't worry about it. Let me finish what I want to say at once, okay?" Ruan Xi understood the old man's love for his son, but he was interrupted again and again, and it was still the old man who was anxious, so he was helpless.
"Is there really a way to save him? How? Little doctor, do you have a way to cure the poison in my son? If you need anything, just tell me, and I will do my best to find it for you!" At this moment, Mr. He was completely excited, and his mind was full of thoughts. Saving his son would definitely require a lot of famous and ancient medicines, and where should he go to find them... and so on. He was a little absent-minded thinking.
"Grandpa, please advise Grandpa He. Even if he is in good health, he should not get too emotional at such an old age. Staying calm will help him live longer." With Ruan Xi's medical skills, he had already seen that Grandpa Zhou's body had reached its limit. If he was not allowed to rest well, he might die suddenly.
With the word "long life", the old man immediately understood the hidden meaning in Ruan Xi's words, and quickly pulled his friend to sit on the sofa beside him. He saw that his old friend was still staring at his unconscious son on the bed, with no possibility of relaxing at all. It was pitiful to see the love of parents in the world.
"Come on, accompany me to play chess downstairs. If we continue to stay here, it won't cause trouble for Ruan Xi. It would be better to keep my Ziqian as an assistant." After saying that, without waiting for Mr. He to react, he had already pulled the man away. When Mr. He really came to his senses, he was already sitting opposite the chessboard, and even the chess pieces were already placed.
"Old An, this little miracle doctor... is he really capable? Where did you find him? Is he reliable?" This attack had a clear sense of internal and external collaboration, forcing him to be on guard, otherwise, his son might really be beyond saving.
"If my eldest grandson says it's okay, then it must be okay. Don't you understand my grandson's temperament?" The old man laughed teasingly, which actually made Mr. He's expression relax a little, as if he was missing something.
"Yeah, how could I not understand..." Thinking back to the time when he wanted to bring his old friend's grandson into his own territory, but the grandson refused and went to the Central Military Base of the Imperial Capital Star on his own, and was so outstanding that people were envious and jealous.
Of course, his son is no less than that. He has always been the envy and jealousy of others. The only difference is that when it comes to finding a partner, he is extremely stubborn. Every time he thinks about it, he wants to beat him up.
The two old men were chatting about the past and playing chess downstairs. In He Jun's room upstairs, He Ziqian actually had the same doubts and worries.
General He Jun is also a senior whom he respects very much.
"Ruan Xi, is this possible?"
Then, He Ziqian immediately received a free roll of the eyes from Ruan Xi. He said unhappily, "I told you there's hope, so there's hope. I'm not lying to you. Come and help me."
Anyway, his disguise has almost fallen off in front of He Ziqian. He now just wants to keep the secret of his rebirth secret. As for the secret of the Tree of Life, Ruan Xi has also thought about it quite clearly. He knows it very well and He Ziqian will know it sooner or later, so there is no need to worry too much.
Ruan Xi took out a bunch of medicinal herbs that he had prepared himself from his storage ring, and quickly picked up a pen to write down a long list of herbs. When he looked carefully, he found that there was a number in front of the name of the herbs.
"What are you going to do? Make some medicine to drink?"
"I need to boil the medicine, but it's not for drinking. It's for soaking. Soaking the patient in the medicine will speed up blood circulation and forcibly activate the toxins currently lurking in the patient's heart. I will then use acupuncture to help him expel the toxins, but you must be mentally prepared. This process will be repeated at least five to ten times. You don't have to worry about me, but you must ensure that the patient has enough physical strength to endure this detoxification process."
Now that the poison is cured, the remaining problems are no longer a problem, at least for Ruan Xi.
"Okay, I'll prepare according to your instructions. Before the treatment begins, you should rest for a while. I'll call you when you're ready." He Ziqian didn't doubt Ruan Xi's words at all. He half-forced Ruan Xi to the small bed beside him, pressed him down on the bed, and then said, "Get some sleep."
"Okay, call me when you've prepared everything. Remember, the order in which the herbs are placed cannot be wrong at all."
"I understand. Don't worry."
He Ziqian went out with a bunch of medicinal herbs, while Ruan Xi took the time to catch up on his sleep. He woke up on his own before He Ziqian came to call him.
Ruan Xi first checked the patient's condition again, and there was no change from before. As soon as he let go of the patient's wrist, He Ziqian came back, and behind him followed a robot holding a large wooden bathtub.
"Just put it in the empty space over there. Come and help me carry the person into the bathtub." Ruan Xi gave the order and walked to the side of the bathtub, sniffed the smell of the medicinal soup, and made sure that there was nothing wrong. Then he signaled He Ziqian that he could carry the patient in.
At this time, Mr. He, who had been waiting downstairs impatiently and couldn't calm down at all, also followed in. He looked at Ruan Xi eagerly and asked, "Can I...can I stay here and watch? I promise not to cause any trouble for the young doctor!"
Mr. He's cautious attitude made Ruan Xi feel both amused and helpless, and she felt sad for the old man in her heart.
"It's okay. You and grandpa just sit aside and wait. I won't be able to take care of you after the treatment begins."
"Hey...hey...we won't bother you!"
He even used honorifics without realizing it, his eyes fixed on his son who was sitting in the bathtub, as if they were the only two people left in the world.
Facts proved that what Ruan Xi said was not an exaggeration at all. When she said that she couldn't take care of them, she really couldn't take care of them. Not only him, but even He Ziqian, who acted as his assistant, couldn't take care of the two worried old men at all. She could only listen to her boyfriend's instructions wholeheartedly.
In the process of acupuncture to remove poison from patients, every action must be precise to the point of error. There are slight differences in the speed of each needle insertion, and it cannot be generalized. It depends on the doctor's medical skills and touch to make an on-the-spot judgment. Ruan Xi didn't feel anything yet, but He Ziqian, the temporary assistant, was so nervous that he was sweating profusely.
This time, to help Uncle He remove the poison, Ruan Xi employed a method of encirclement and interception. The toxin's path would be readily apparent without requiring a specific search; it simply followed the bloodstream. Ruan Xi simply waited for the toxin, temporarily dormant in the heart, to awaken and begin its escape through the blood vessels. At this point, Ruan Xi had to swiftly block the toxin's path forward and backward, pinning it in place for easy removal.
This method sounds simple, but it is extremely difficult to do. Regardless of other things, even a little understanding of the direction of the human body's meridians and blood vessels will not be enough to block the flow of toxins, not to mention Ruan Xi's almost superb acupuncture skills, plus the various herbs he collected. If any one of them is missing, today's detoxification work cannot be done.
The two old men were stunned, looking like they had never seen the world before.
Is this the real ability of the little miracle doctor?
It's simply amazing!
