Chapter 39: Treating Zhao Ruilong
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Zhao Ya’s body trembled.
Perhaps she recalled how Bai Chen had directly used silver needles to cure her grandfather’s sudden illness.
Or maybe she remembered the miraculous effects of the herbal soup Bai Chen had made yesterday.
Zhao Ya chose to unconditionally believe in Bai Chen.
“Wait! You all stop!”
Zhao Ya scolded Doctor Pu and Zhao Hao Tian.
However, Zhao Hao Tian impatiently retorted,
“Grandpa is in a critical situation! Why are you making trouble now? Do you want to get Grandpa killed?”
Zhao Ya couldn’t help but argue back.
“I think you are the one trying to get Grandpa killed! How can bloodletting therapy heal anyone?”
Zhao Hao Tian scoffed at her words.
“Get Grandpa killed? How could I possibly do that! Doctor Pu has been treating Grandpa for two years; that’s how he has managed to stay alive. What do you think?”
“You don’t trust a doctor who has treated Grandpa for two years but believe a country bumpkin that everyone in Lintai knows? Zhao Ya, is something wrong with your head?”
After saying this, Zhao Hao Tian turned to Doctor Pu and said,
“Doctor Pu, hurry up and treat him, ignore her!”
Hearing this, Doctor Pu immediately began bloodletting Zhao Ruilong.
Zhao Ya was so angry at this scene that she stomped her feet on the ground.
She wanted to step forward to stop them but was blocked by other Zhao family members in the way.
The other Zhao family members also only believed Doctor Pu, not Bai Chen.
They had heard of Bai Chen’s reputation.
What kind of medical skills could a country bumpkin from the mountains have?
Watching her grandfather’s blood flow out while his face grew paler,
Zhao Ya felt her heart race.
If this continued, something terrible might really happen!
“Doctor Bai! Please save my grandfather!”
Zhao Ya couldn’t help but kneel down, grasping Bai Chen’s sleeve in desperation.
Zhao Hao Tian saw this scene and mocked Zhao Ya coldly.
“Begging a country bumpkin? You really are a joke! Just wait and see how Doctor Pu will cure Grandpa!”
As soon as Zhao Hao Tian’s words fell, they heard Zhao Ruilong groan softly.
Hearing Zhao Ruilong’s voice, Zhao Hao Tian’s expression brightened, and he quickly looked over.
He saw Zhao Ruilong’s head shaking continuously, while beside him, two to three hundred milliliters of blood had already been drawn.
“Grandpa is waking up!”
Zhao Ruilong exclaimed with joy. Doctor Pu, standing nearby, smiled and nodded before stopping the bloodletting.
“Zhao Ya, I told you to trust Doctor Pu, but you didn’t believe me! Now Grandpa is about to get better. What do you have to say?”
“You should stay away from this country bumpkin! We don’t want people from Lintai laughing at our Zhao family! I don’t want to end up like the Nan family!”
Just as Zhao Hao Tian mocked Zhao Ya, Zhao Ruilong’s face grew paler, and his breath weakened.
Doctor Pu’s expression changed when he saw this.
“Not good! Your grandfather is not doing well!”
After saying this, Doctor Pu once again checked Zhao Ruilong’s condition.
When he measured Zhao Ruilong’s blood oxygen, Doctor Pu’s face turned pale with fear.
“How could this happen! The blood oxygen is only 80?”
Typically, a normal person’s blood oxygen level is above 95; anything lower than that is dangerous.
And Zhao Ruilong’s oxygen was only at 80.
Zhao Hao Tian panicked as well.
“What is going on?”
Doctor Pu shook his head, a hint of panic on his face.
“Zhao Young Master, you must take your grandfather to the hospital immediately! I cannot treat him any further!”
Hearing Doctor Pu’s words, Zhao Hao Tian’s eyes widened in shock.
“What did you say! Emergency care?!”
“How could you have treated my grandfather to the point of needing emergency care?”
Doctor Pu helplessly spread his hands.
“Zhao Young Master, hurry up and take your grandfather for emergency treatment! If we waste more time here, your grandfather might not survive!”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hao Tian’s eyes turned bloodshot, and he became furious.
Bai Chen shook his head at this scene.
“What a nonsense bloodletting therapy!”
“Even sending him for emergency treatment now may be too late!”
Zhao Ya, hearing Bai Chen’s words, quickly pleaded with him.
“Doctor Bai! Please save my grandfather!”
Bai Chen coldly stared at Zhao Hao Tian and Doctor Pu.
“It’s not that I don’t want to save him; it’s that someone keeps stopping me!”
Zhao Ya’s face showed anger as she moved directly in front of Zhao Hao Tian and Doctor Pu, slapping them both across the face.
Two crisp slapping sounds rang out, leaving Zhao Hao Tian and Doctor Pu momentarily stunned.
“You, you dare to hit me?”
Doctor Pu covered his face in disbelief.
“I hit you!”
Zhao Ya was nearing a breaking point; if looks could kill, Doctor Pu would have died a thousand times by now.
Meanwhile, Zhao Hao Tian didn’t dare to breathe at all.
He knew he had made a terrible mistake. If anything happened to his grandfather, Zhao Ruilong, his fate would be grim!
At this moment, Zhao Ya grabbed Zhao Hao Tian by the hair and pulled him in front of Bai Chen.
“Apologize to Doctor Bai!”
Seeing Zhao Ya’s fierce side, Bai Chen raised an eyebrow.
When Zhao Hao Tian remained silent, Zhao Ya kicked his knee.
Zhao Hao Tian fell to his knees in front of Bai Chen.
“Apologize to me!”
Zhao Ya’s icy voice rang in Zhao Hao Tian’s ear.
“Y-yes! I’m sorry, Doctor Bai!”
Zhao Hao Tian trembled as he apologized.
Bai Chen shook his head gently.
Although Zhao Hao Tian had offended him, Zhao Ruilong was innocent.
Moreover, Zhao Ruilong had been unconscious and was unaware of these events.
Bai Chen approached Zhao Ruilong, glancing at the pool of blood on the ground and shaking his head.
He then took out the silver needles he carried and quickly inserted them into several of Zhao Ruilong’s acupoints.
This time, Bai Chen used the Destiny Nine Needles technique.
One needle takes life, nine needles reverse yin and yang!
The Destiny Nine Needles were not to be taken lightly.
After inserting four needles, Zhao Ruilong’s complexion immediately began to improve.
Doctor Pu, who had looked down on Bai Chen when he took out the silver needles, firmly believed that the acupuncture of the nine provinces was nothing but a trick.
However, when he saw Zhao Ruilong’s complexion become rosy after the four needles, he was left speechless.
Zhao Ya also let out a small sigh of relief at this sight.
But the situation was not over yet.
Bai Chen continued to stimulate Zhao Ruilong’s acupoints with the silver needles.
A stream of energy flowed through the needles and into Zhao Ruilong’s body, probing for his condition.
As he examined further, Bai Chen’s brows furrowed.
Zhao Ruilong had too many underlying issues, and many had appeared in recent years!
However, according to Zhao Hao Tian, Doctor Pu had been treating Zhao Ruilong for the past two years. How could these hidden ailments exist?
Bai Chen’s eyes shifted to Doctor Pu, who immediately averted his gaze.
In that moment, Bai Chen realized something was amiss.
There were certainly many secrets involved in this.
At that moment, Zhao Ruilong slowly opened his eyes.
“Grandpa! You’re finally awake!”
Seeing Zhao Ruilong wake up, Zhao Ya’s face lit up, and she rushed over.
Zhao Ruilong was still a bit dazed.
Once he heard Zhao Ya explain the whole situation, his expression darkened immediately.
