Upon hearing the news that Grandpa Xie had fainted, Ding Huizhu panicked.
She called Xie Ziyuan: "Ziyuan, your grandfather has fainted and is unconscious. You have to come back quickly to save him..."
Xie Ziyuan actually received the news before Ding Huizhu.
The old master Xie's illness was originally treated by Pharmacist Chen, but unfortunately Pharmacist Chen was not here today, and the other pharmacists and doctors in the Xie family were completely helpless against this poison.
There was only a glimmer of hope with Xie Ziyuan, so they contacted her immediately, hoping she could come and rescue the person.
Xie Ziyuan gently comforted Ding Huizhu: "Mom, don't worry too much. Grandpa's condition is very dangerous, but it's not hopeless..."
After a pause, Xie Ziyuan seemed unwilling to say more, "Anyway, I'll be going back right away. I'm confident I can cure Grandpa."
Ding Huizhu keenly noticed the difference in her tone, but now was not the time to talk about such things on the phone.
"Okay, send me the flight information after you buy the ticket, and I'll come pick you up in person."

When Grandpa Xie finally woke up, it was already the early hours of the next day.
Xie Li sat on the recliner next to him, his eyes still showing some drowsiness.
"Grandpa, you're awake? How are you feeling?" Pharmacist Chen was overjoyed to see Grandpa Xie open his eyes.
Grandpa Xie tried to move his body, but felt that half of his body was numb and he couldn't get up at all.
He took a couple of breaths, and being a medical student, he immediately understood his situation and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"The poison gas has already entered your heart and lungs, hasn't it?"
Xie Li looked up, his expression unusually serious. "You know what else about your condition?"
"It hasn't invaded the heart and lungs, it's entered the brain, it's starting to affect the central nervous system. If I had come back any later, you would have..."
Grandpa Xie smiled faintly, his eyes kind and gentle: "I'm already this old, every extra day I live is a bonus, and besides, I have you..."
"What, you're already planning what will happen after you die?" Xie Li said coldly.
Old Master Xie paused for a moment before slowly speaking, "I know my own body..."
He had been poisoned for so long that his body had been almost completely eroded by the toxins, and he had long since given up hope of survival.
The heart-nourishing soup did indeed bring him a brief period of happiness.
However, his anger over Jiang Baili's matter caused him to become so enraged that the poison entered his brain, which was beyond human control.
"I didn't allow you to die. Ask the King of Hell if he dares to take you." Xie Li's brows and eyes were cold, and his clear eyes were serious and earnest.
The sadness and disillusionment that had just gripped Old Master Xie vanished in an instant. He gestured to Pharmacist Chen with his eyes, "Is there still hope for me?"
Pharmacist Chen still had a smile on his face: "Miss, you arrived just in time. You used gold needles to seal the vital acupoints on your body, preventing the invasion of toxins."
"You are only temporarily unable to move. The medicinal herbs that the young lady ordered have been delivered, and she will soon be able to go to the alchemy room to refine the antidote and remove the toxins from you."
In fact, Xie Li had already performed acupuncture on Old Master Xie when he arrived, helping to guide the toxins to his limbs little by little. This was the real reason why Old Master Xie could not move.
It goes without saying how dangerous the acupuncture was. Xie Li was almost completely exhausted after the acupuncture was completed, and only then did she rest on the recliner for an hour.
The next key step was to prepare the medicine. With the medicine, the illness was cured, and this time Old Master Xie was truly detoxified.
