Chapter 14 A True Master
Xiao Shun tried to step forward but was immediately blocked by Wang Kaijie.
“Fuck off!” He gritted his teeth and slapped Wang Kaijie across his face.
The strength of the slap instantly sent Wang Kaijie out of balance and to the floor. His cheek immediately swelled up.
Xiao Shun hurried to the edge of the operating table and checked her pulses. He frowned and was surprised by how fast the situation had been worsening. If he did not help her now, she might not have much time.
He hastily took out his needle case and spread it out on the operating table.
“Ridiculous! She got burned, and you’re going to give her acupuncture?”
“Stop it! If this really works, don’t you think any of us know how to do acupuncture?”
The doctors around him shook their heads when they saw him took out the silver needles.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
But before they could finish their words, Xiao Shun had already sent the silver needles in his hand into several different acupuncture points, and the little girl who had just been convulsing violently was instantly quiet.
Xiao Shun knew that the little girl must have already inhaled so much smoke that her lungs were severely damaged, and although he had shielded her lungs with some spiritual energy, she was ultimately too young and her body was too fragile and irreparable damage had been done.
Of course, it’s not completely incurable. It’s just that there’s no way to do it in a single session of acupuncture alone.
For a moment, the entire operating room was enveloped in silence.
A few seconds passed and the EKG monitor suddenly emitted a few desperate “beeps”.
All those present were more than familiar with the beeping sound. It meant that the patient’s heart had stopped and she immediately needed cardioversion. Death was just around the corner.
A commotion erupted in the crowd.
“She’s dead! Call the police!”
Wang Kaijie covered his swollen face and said with heartfelt joy.
“Xiao Shun, you’re finished! You’ll go to jail!”
“This can’t be true… This can’t be true, Dr. Xiao? How could this happen?” Wang Feng burst into tears, his eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Xiao Shun with an incredulous expression.
He knew exactly what that sound meant. Even though he knew his daughter’s hope of survival was grim, he just couldn’t accept the fact when the moment came.
Yao Cen hissed.
So Xiao Shun was still the same loser. The good feeling she just had for him was gone in an instant. Not only that, he might have to face lawsuits now.
Yao Cen screamed in his heart.
However, Xiao Shun just ignored all this, his face calm as he once again took out a few silver needles.
Then he mobilized the spiritual energy within him and sent the silver needles into each acupuncture point. With each stitch, he sent his spiritual energy into the little girl.
Although he has reached Apotheosis, he had, after all, used his spiritual energy several times today.
At this point, he had used all the Ghost Door Thirteen Needles, beads of sweat dripped down both his cheeks, and his face was much paler.
At the moment, it was as if time had stopped in the operating room.
Suddenly, the crowd seemed to see an illusion.
They saw the shoots break out of the ground and a chrysalis become a beautiful butterfly.
A moment later, when they came back to their senses, Xiao Shun had already put away the silver needles and let out a long breath of relief.
The chest of the little girl on the operating table was already rising and falling rhythmically, and her EKG was back to normal.
“Is this… Okay?”
“Her heartbeat has returned to normal, and all other indicators are normal. The patient’s condition appears to be stable.” The doctor in charge of the instrument said.
“This is incredible! What just happened?”
“Not sure. I felt like i saw some illusions.”
The crowd of doctors around them was stunned for a moment, as if they had all just had a brief dream.
Yao Cen’s nervous heart finally settled down gradually. She glanced at Xiao Shun who was sitting there in a daze, and at this time he was pale and looked very tired.
For a moment, she felt mixed emotions.
Wang Feng held the small hand of his daughter, which had just been cold as stone and now gradually became warm. He said in surprise, “Dr. Xiao?”
Xiao Shun gave a weary smile, “She’s okay. Soon she’ll wake up.”
As he said, a few moments later, the little girl slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the room of strangers in confusion, and a touch of fear flooded her gaze, “Father, who are they?”
Wang Feng burst into tears, “They’re doctors. Don’t worry, I’m here.”
“I don’t want a shot! I can take the medicine if you want me to.” The little girl asked as she blinked her big eyes and looked at Wang Feng pitifully.
“Okay, we’re not going to get a shot.” Wang Feng wiped his tears and laughed.
The crowd of doctors around the room were surprised that the little girl had gotten so much better so quickly.
And at some point, Wang Kaijie had already snuck out of the room.
As the head of the city hospital, Zhou Shuqing was born into a family of doctors and was pretty proud of his medical achievement. He thought he had seen enough but today he was amazed by what Xiao Shun could do with his needles and he felt respectful for this young man.
He was already in his sixties but he was still striving for a higher level of medicine. If he could learn even just a tiny little bit more, he could put away all his pride and usual arrogance.
He walked up to Xiao Shun, bowed deeply and said, “Mr. Xiao is a true master. May I ask where you have learned these from?”
Xiao Shun looked up at him, “I’m self-taught. If there’s something you want to say, just say it.”
Zhou Shuqing was slightly embarrassed, “I have been studying traditional medicine all my life, and just now I was amazed by your acupuncture and I really wish I could learn something from you.”
Then there was another moment of consternation from the other doctors.
It would be strange if he suddenly became the student of such a young man.
Xiao Shun smiled lightly, “I can’t have a student like you.”
He shook his head then said, “It doesn’t seem quite right.”
“Sure you can, and I definitely have a lot to learn from you,” Zhou Shuqing said in a sincere manner.
Xiao Shun waved his hand and refused, “I don’t take students.”
“What an arrogant young man! How dare he refuse Doctor Zhou?”
“Yeah, he only had some luck in curing that little girl, and look how arrogant he has been!”
Someone whispered, and naturally Xiao Shun heard the words.
