Chapter 972 - 972 972 Old He Takes Action Again
Chapter 972: Chapter 972: Old He Takes Action Again! Chapter 972: Chapter 972: Old He Takes Action Again! Chaos and turmoil ensued!
By the time Old He was finally called over, everyone had already joined forces to restrain Liu Sisi.
“Make way, let me through!”
As soon as Old He saw the frenzied Liu Sisi, he understood at once. Taking advantage of the path cleared by the crowd, he stepped forward, took out a silver needle, and took control of her body, thrusting the needle into her Baihui acupoint.
The wildly struggling Liu Sisi suddenly halted, her entire body as if its lifeline had been cut, slumped down, and landed beside her.
Di Yelei was extremely anxious and turned to Old He for help, “Old He! What… what should we do now?”
Old He didn’t even look at him, his gaze fixed on Liu Sisi, “Don’t panic, lay her down quickly, and I’ll see what’s going on.”
Di Yelei didn’t hesitate, eagerly instructing everyone.
The people carefully placed her down and then stepped aside.
No matter how anxious he was, watching Old He take the pulse of her left hand and then her right hand, Di Yelei felt a pang of sorrow. What on earth was happening right now?
Old He, however, was composed, sitting down leisurely and taking her pulse. He switched from left to right hand and back again. Old He’s face, taut with seriousness, grew increasingly worse.
Sure enough, once he released Liu Sisi’s hand, he pondered for a while, ignoring Di Yelei, who was waiting for the outcome.
“Old He, what exactly is going on with Sisi? Please, say something!”
As anxious as Di Yelei was, he could only press on patiently.
Old He then looked up at Di Yelei, “I don’t know what has happened to Sisi in the past, but just now, her condition was very dangerous. A blood vessel in her head suddenly burst, causing a lot of fluid buildup in her brain. It seems to be related to what she has experienced recently. It’s a pity that she is unconscious; otherwise, we could ask her what exactly has happened these past days.”
“You mean, she…”
Di Yelei was struck dumb, never having imagined such a situation.
“That’s right! Sisi’s condition is extremely critical at the moment. I need to immediately perform acupuncture to drain the stagnant blood in her brain to see what’s really happening inside there.”
“This… this has to do with her suddenly going mad?”
“It seems so. Her condition isn’t good, and she seems to have sustained internal injuries some time ago. However, the doctor who examined her seems to have given her strong medicine. On the surface, it appeared to have healed her internal injuries, which would have been fine, and with more rest, she could have recovered quite a bit. However, not only was the other party hasty and eager for quick results, but they also repeatedly used blood-activating drugs to fight poison with poison on her. Her fragile cerebral vessels couldn’t withstand such harsh treatment, and eventually, a small vessel burst. But there’s already a significant accumulation of blood in her brain, and clearly, she’s in grave danger right now.”
Old He seemed hesitant to continue.
Yet, even so, Di Yelei’s face lost all its color.
“Old He, you have always been a senior who took good care of Sisi, how confident are you in treating Sisi now, given that her illness is different from before?”
“The stagnant blood in her brain must be evacuated quickly, otherwise, the accumulated stagnant blood will surely cause her head to burst, and she will pass away in her sleep. If I use the silver needles to draw out the excess stagnant blood in her brain, there might be a chance for her to regain consciousness. In my view, since Sisi is in such a state now, I naturally must act immediately, without a moment’s hesitation.”
As Old He spoke, his hands moved swiftly, readying the silver needles he had brought.
Although he had been prepared earlier, he hadn’t anticipated the situation to be so grave.
Di Yelei, looking at Sisi’s cheek that still had dark brown blood trickling down, “Old He, please feel free to proceed! Whether Sisi can survive this ordeal or not, Ye Lei will be grateful to you!”
“It’s good to have your word!”
Old He also truly heaved a sigh of relief! If Di Yelei hadn’t agreed to let him take action, he would have probably had to forcefully proceed anyway!
–
At present, quite a number of people had gathered outside the room.
Earlier, when Liu Sisi fell ill, Di Yelei’s loud shouting had awakened everyone. Unfortunately, from the time Old He entered until the end, he never left the room, which made everyone anxiously fixate on that room door.
Just as everyone was growing extremely anxious, the maid Xue Yi, carrying a basin of water, walked out from the room. It was filled with dark brown blood, so deep in color it looked almost like ink, scaring everyone present!
Di Hongyuan hurriedly stepped forward, blocking Xue Yi’s path: “How is it now? What’s the situation inside?”
There were still spots of blood on Xue Yi’s face, and upon Di Hongyuan’s question, her eyes immediately reddened: “The situation is very bad. According to Miracle Doctor He, the Princess’s brain has many blood clots. Now, Old He is using silver needles to draw out the clots. So…”
These words stunned everyone!
Di Hongyuan quickly asked, “Did you hear Miracle Doctor He say how confident he is about the cure?”
“Miracle Doctor He said that if he didn’t proceed with treatment, there would be no chance at all. If the treatment is given, at least there’s a two in ten chance of survival. So…”
The few children present immediately burst into tears, only to be sternly stopped by Di Hongyuan!
“Stop crying! Miracle Doctor He is inside administering acupuncture. If your crying startles him and he misplaces a needle, what then?”
This made the children forcibly hold back their tears.
Watching Di Hongyuan pace back and forth in front of the room door, it was clear that his heart was also not at peace.
He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly! The days had seemed to be getting better and better, so why did things suddenly change?
Niuniu pouted, clinging close to Di Ying’s side, and looked up at her: “Eldest Sister, do you think Mom will be okay? I want Mom… sob sob sob…”
“Be good, don’t cry! We must believe in Mom, she will definitely get through this!”
While she spoke, Di Ying’s eyes also reddened.
“Did Miracle Doctor He give any instructions inside?” Di Hongyuan still got straight to the point.
Xue Yi shook her head, her expression immensely sad: “Miracle Doctor He has already said, the prescription given to the kitchen earlier should be brewed according to the instructions, and brought inside—that will do. I came out to get the soup medicine from the small kitchen; other than that, he didn’t say much else.”
“Then why aren’t you hurrying over?”
Di Hongyuan urged her.
Waiting until Xue Yi went to the small kitchen, she soon carried the soup medicine into the room, and the silence within was restored once again.
In the room’s anxious wait from everyone outside, the room door finally opened in the afternoon.
Miracle Doctor He looked utterly exhausted, but his expression carried a hint of pride. Seeing everyone, he then smiled, “I’ve lived up to my duties! Sisi has, for now, overcome the toughest obstacle. Not only has the weird poison in her body been largely neutralized, but the blood clots in her brain have also been removed. Now we must see if there will be any relapse in her condition.”
Upon hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.
