Female Novel
Chapter 240
“Preposterous! The patient’s heartbeat and breathing has stopped, he shows no signs of life, andyou’re telling me he can still be saved? That he’s in a coma? What a joke.” Tang Sisi stuck out a legand took a step forward as she voiced her disagreement. She then continued with an aggressivelycondescending sneer, “Who are you? How did you come to such a conclusion?”
The crowd started criticizing as well, “Is he mad? Why’s he saying all this, right after Doctor Fu himselfsaid he was beyond help? Is the guy somehow a better doctor than he is?”
“Hmph, why else? He wants to go viral! People would cross their own bottom lines for views thesedays, and I bet he’s some kind of internet celebrity.”
“What a heartless man, using a dead person to go viral.”
Yun Muqing also became nervous and tugged on Chu Feng’s sleeve before saying quietly, “Chu Feng,l-let’s just leave.”
The man was clearly dead and as powerful as Chu Feng was, there’s no way he could bring back thedead.
Meanwhile, everyone surrounding Chu Feng was still mocking him with contempt and disgust.
Fu Nanhua, though, frowned and then stood up to ask politely, “My friend, what led you to theconclusion that the patient’s in a comatose state? This is a matter of life and death, so there is no roomfor mistakes.” After all, he was an experienced elder, and that made him a more calm and logical man.
“Grandpa, how can you believe a con man like him? I think he’s just using your reputation to go viral
and get attention.” Tang Sisi huffed and stomped her feet; she’d seen plenty of shameless men likethese before.
“Nonsense! How can you drag someone else’s name through the mud without the evidence to back itup?” Fu Nanhua roared. Then, he continued to seek Chu Feng’s advice, “Do elaborate, my friend.”
Tang Sisi huffed again through gritted teeth, looking like she wanted to eat Chu Feng whole.
In response, Chu Feng simply nodded and recited what he learnt from the Collection of MysticalHealing, “The patient’s pupils are unresponsive, and he is unconscious. This seems like the textbookdefinition of a cranial hemorrhage, but that’s just a red herring. Likewise, the fact that his fingers arepaling indicates a blood circulation issue, most likely because a clogged artery is cutting off his brain’soxygen supply. This would result in a coma.”
Fu Nanhua contemplated for a moment, then he seemed to realize something. “So how do we fix this?”
“Simple. Lie the patient down on his back, then apply acupuncture needles to the following fouracupuncture points: Baihui [1], Neiguan [2], Shenque [3] and Zusanli [4]. After that, remove the needlesand repeat the process. Eventually, the patient will wake up,” Chu Feng explained.
“Chinese medicine?” Fu Nanhua exclaimed. Then, he looked Chu Feng up and down again withsurprise. Since when did such a precocious youth emerge in the Chinese medicinal field? How has henever heard of him?
“I told you, grandpa! He’s a con man who knew his medicinal knowledge pales in comparison to yours,so he made up a bunch of Chinese medicine nonsense to avoid blowing his own cover. Hmph! Oldesttrick in the book,” Tang Sisi scoffed with her arms crossed. “Did you really think I’d fall for that?”
She, Tang Sisi, was a PhD graduate from the UCL Medical School and a rising star among the nation’ssurgeons. From her experience, Chinese medicine was a field full of both geniuses and crooks. Withthe exception of the famous ones in the field of Chinese medicine, 99% of the field’s practitioners werecon men. Besides, the field required tons of experience, so a practitioner’s age also indicated his skill.How could a man as young as him have any sort of in-depth medical prowess?
Chu Feng replied dismissively, “My medical skills are for saving lives, not for convincing you. Whyshould I care whether you believe me or not?”
“You—” Tang Sisi gritted her teeth, clearly at her boiling point.
Chu Feng glanced at his wristwatch, then said calmly, “It’s been five minutes. If we waste another five,the patient’s blood will start flowing back to his heart. When that happens, even a god won’t be able tosave him, but we still have a chance now.” novelbin
Fu Nanhua seemed rejuvenated by that. “Then how confident are you in your abilities, my friend?”
Chu Feng said calmly, “100 percent!”
The crowd gasped in unison when they heard that. 100 percent?
[1] The Baihui point, [2] Neiguan point, [3] Shenque point, [4] Zusanli point are acupuncture points onthe Governing Vessel, the Pericardium Meridian, the Conception Vessel and the Stomach Meridian,respectively.
