Judging from the current situation, even if he cured his rheumatism and synovitis, it would be difficult for Wu Tianlong to stand up in a short period of time if the problem of muscle atrophy was not resolved.
Xu Jianguo searched through all the ancient medical books in his mind, but couldn't find a quick and effective method, and couldn't help feeling depressed.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he called out to the system in his mind: "System!"
[Ding, I'm here!]
"I'd like to ask, are primary gene enhancement drugs effective for patients with muscular dystrophy?"
[Ding, primary gene enhancement agent, can improve muscle treatment by strengthening genes. Theoretically, it is effective for patients with muscular dystrophy, but it is recommended that the host try a small dose first.]
"clear!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jianguo opened the page of the points mall in his mind, and then spent 80 points to exchange for a primary gene enhancement potion.
[Ding, redemption successful, points balance 130.]
As the system interface appeared and the prompt sounded, a pale yellow medicine appeared in Xu Jianguo's system warehouse.
After thinking for a while, Xu Jianguo stood up and said to Wu Tianlong: "Grandpa Wu, I'll get you a glass of water. You need to replenish your water."
Wu Tianlong was already sweating profusely at this time, and the mattress under him was already wet with sweat. He nodded slightly and said, "Okay!"
At this time, Su Dingshan was sitting on the sofa in the living room. When he saw Xu Jianguo coming out, he asked, "How are you, kid?"
"It's okay. Although Grandpa Wu's rheumatism is much more serious than yours, it is still within controllable range. He has sweated a lot. Let me pour him a glass of water!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile, without mentioning the muscle atrophy.
"That's good, that's good!" Su Dingshan felt much more at ease.
Xu Jianguo went to the study to get a large enamel pot, then went to the kitchen to get a spoon, and then poured most of the boiled water into the cup. After that, he said hello to Su Dingshan and turned to walk towards the bedroom.
At this time, the primary gene enhancement potion had appeared in his hand. He opened the bottle cap with one hand, then calmly poured one-third of the potion into the enamel jar, and then put the potion into the space.
After doing all this, Xu Jianguo just came to the bedroom door. He pushed the door open and found that Wu Tianlong looked like someone had been fished out of the water. He hurried over and fed him water with a spoon.
When Wu Tianlong took the first sip of boiled water mixed with gene-enhancing drugs, he felt like a person who had been dehydrated for a long time and saw a spring. He swallowed it impatiently until he had finished all the water in the enamel jar. Only then did he feel much better.
After Xu Jianguo fed him water, he kept observing his condition, but found that this old man did not fall asleep after taking the gene enhancement drug like himself and Fu Niu and the others. He couldn't help but guess that it was because the dosage was relatively small.
An hour later, when the sweat discharged from Wu Tianlong's pores was no longer dark gray, Xu Jianguo took back the nine silver needles, then took out six more silver needles and inserted them into the acupuncture points of his knee joints.
Xu Jianguo bent over, twisting the silver needle with both hands, lifting or stabbing, and occasionally flicking the end of the silver needle gently.
Following Xu Jianguo's operation, about ten minutes later, the outer sides of Wu Tianlong's knee joints began to swell up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo took out a needle knife from the needle bag, then took two thick pieces of gauze from the cabinet next to him, and then stabbed the swollen area with the knife.
“Puff!”
As the needle knife was inserted, Xu Jianguo seemed to hear a sound like a balloon bursting, and then he saw a stream of light red liquid flowing out from the wound where the needle knife had pierced the swollen area.
Xu Jianguo covered the wound with gauze, and then used his thumb and index finger to continuously squeeze the swollen area until no more fluid flowed out.
After operating on one leg, Xu Jianguo also processed the knee joint of the other leg.
After the fluid in Wu Tianlong's knee joints was drained, Xu Jianguo took back the six silver needles and began to massage him using the massage and bone-setting techniques of ancient medicine.
Xu Jianguo smiled and said, "Grandpa Wu, your knee joint is a little deformed. I need to help you adjust it. It will be very painful later, please bear with it!"
"Okay, come on!" Wu Tianlong said with a smile and nodded.
In the next twenty minutes, there were bursts of "cracking" sounds in the bedroom, and Wu Tianlong also deeply felt how painful it was when Xu Jianguo said it was very painful.
By the time Xu Jianguo finished the massage, the weathered veteran had already become exhausted. In addition, because he drank some primary gene enhancement potion, he became a little drowsy.
Xu Jianguo opened the door, talked to Su Dingshan, and ran to the duty room to call He Hongliang and the guard over. Then he went to get a large basin of hot water and brought it back to the room.
He placed the basin of water at the head of the bed, then picked up Wu Tianlong and asked He Hongliang and the guard to help replace the old man's sheets and mattress with new ones.
After changing the sheets and mattress, Xu Jianguo put Wu Tianlong on the bed and wiped his body with a hot towel.
Su Dingshan looked at his old friend lying on the bed without saying a word, but he was also very upset. After Xu Jianguo finished covering Wu Tianlong with the quilt, he couldn't help but ask, "Boy, how are you?"
Xu Jianguo looked at Su Dingshan's worried eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old man. Let Grandpa Wu have a good sleep tonight. If my guess is correct, he should have undergone a tremendous change tomorrow morning!"
"Really?" Su Dingshan's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam of light when he heard it, and he asked with a happy face.
"Yes, really!" Xu Jianguo nodded.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work!" Su Dingshan said.
"Well, you are being so polite again. If you continue like that, I won't give you good wine anymore!" Xu Jianguo said pretending to be angry.
"Haha, okay, I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore!" Su Dingshan felt even happier when he heard Xu Jianguo say that.
After turning off the lights in Wu Tianlong's bedroom, several people left the bedroom. Xu Jianguo took Su Dingshan's pulse and, after confirming that there was nothing wrong with his body, urged the old man to go to rest quickly.
After all, he is in his seventies or eighties, not to mention that it is already past eleven o'clock in the evening. Staying up late can cause great harm to the body.
After Su Dingshan returned to the bedroom, Xu Jianguo washed his face, then returned to his room, took off his clothes, got into bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
