As soon as Gu Liyan finished speaking, Yao Niang said, "I'll go boil water. Huo Tong, you go prepare the gauze. You guys, don't just stand there, get out of here right now!"
The aunt's instructions made the surgery go smoothly, and soon hot water and gauze were prepared.
Without further ado, Gu Liyan began the "surgery".
Meng Zhong and the others standing guard outside the door couldn't help but praise Gu Liyan repeatedly.
"This Mova is a completely different person from when she was a child!"
"I never knew he was a doctor! Now our village won't have to worry about people getting sick anymore!"
Meng Zhong sat on a chair to the side, his face showing no joy, but rather a solemn expression.
Just then, Gu Liyan came out, and everyone surrounded him.
"How did it go? Did it succeed?"
"Are those three alright?"
The crowd was chattering incessantly, and Gu Liyan felt a growing headache. She raised her hand and called out, "Everyone! The surgeries on the three of them were very successful. If there are no problems, they will wake up soon."
"That's great!"
"Mova, you're awesome!"
Everyone applauded for Gu Liyan.
Just as everyone was applauding for him, Gu Liyan shook his head, felt a ringing in his ears, and suddenly everything went black as he collapsed. Luckily, his aunt, who had just come out, caught him in her arms…
Meng Zhong brought over a quilt and walked into the room. A group of people gathered around the kang (a heated brick bed), looking at Gu Liyan lying there, and asked in a low voice, "How is she?"
"It's nothing," Huo Tong said in a low voice. "A four-hour surgery must have been exhausting."
"It might also be related to the journey," Meng Zhong said.
Gu Liyan frowned and woke up.
"He's awake! He's awake!" Huo Tong exclaimed excitedly.
"Keep your voice down, you brat!" Auntie scolded in a low voice. Turning to Gu Liyan, she spoke gently, "Young man, how are you feeling?"
Gu Liyan looked at his aunt and said shyly, "I'm a little... hungry..."
The aunt covered her mouth and laughed, "Wait, I'll prepare some food for you!"
Seeing his aunt's attentive manner, Huo Tong shook his head and sighed, "Even when I'm sick, she's not this attentive!"
Meng Zhong patted Huo Tong's head. "Your brother Mo is a hero. He saved three lives! How can you compare to him?"
"Yes, yes, Brother Mo, you're amazing! You brought those three back to life in just a few moves! You're practically a god descended to earth!" Huo Tong exclaimed.
Gu Liyan smiled and said, "If you want to learn, I can teach you."
"Really? That's great!" Huo Tong shouted happily.
"Shh, keep your voice down, there are three patients next door!"
"Oh, I forgot."
