Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter One Hundred Sixty

As Xiaoshan performed his technique, the remnants of vital energy within the old man's body began to gather...

Xiaoshan concentrated those gathered vital energy at the old man's heart.

Beep beep beep~~

The monitoring equipment placed beside fluctuated, signaling an increase in heart rate strength, its amplitude growing larger, and the numbers were continuously jumping upwards.

The Bai Family dealt in medicinal herbs and had some understanding of medical techniques.

Seeing the monitor's fluctuations grow,

they too were startled.

Bai Heming and Bai Susu both crowded in front of the apparatus.

Bai Heming asked, "What's going on here?"

"It looks like the heartbeat is getting stronger," said Bai Susu.

The two of them hurriedly looked at Xiaoshan and were shocked to see the fine Golden Needle in his hand, piercing the heart area of their father and being manipulated there.

"This..." Bai Heming was also panicked, "This is too reckless."

He tried to pull Xiaoshan away.

"Brother, don't mess around, in case something goes wrong," Bai Susu, although also nervous, had more confidence in Xiaoshan than Bai Heming did.

Ma Xiaohong watched coldly from the side, her heart filled with sneers.

At that moment, the door to the ward was pushed open.

A few doctors and nurses in white coats walked in.

Furen Hospital charged exorbitant fees, and each VIP ward had its dedicated doctor, with the ward's equipment linked to the doctor's office.

Once there was any fluctuation in a patient's condition,

The doctors would receive an alert.

Therefore, the sudden acceleration and quickening fluctuation of Patriarch Bai's heartbeat alerted the attending doctors, who hurriedly came over to see what was happening.

"What's happening here?" As the doctor entered, he saw someone performing acupuncture on the patient by the bed, and his expression turned grave, saying, "Who allowed you to touch the patient?"

Ma Xiaohong pointedly jeered at Bai Susu, "Doctor Gao, she's the one who invited him, claiming he's a 'Divine Doctor'."

Doctor Gao, of course, recognized Bai Susu, the stunning beauty with plenty of charm.

After all, Elder Bai had been hospitalized for quite a while,

and Bai Susu visited the hospital often.

Hearing that it was Bai Susu who had invited him, Doctor Gao found it difficult to sternly reprimand the beautiful woman.

Suppressing his irritation, he warned her, "Miss Bai, this is reckless. Patriarch Bai's condition is very critical, how could you let someone perform acupuncture on him? Tell him to stop immediately."

"Doctor Gao," Bai Susu hesitated before saying, "It's already been done, why don't we let Xiaoshan try a little longer?"

She didn't know why, but she felt an inexplicable trust in Xiaoshan.

Perhaps because Xiaoshan always reminded her of Brother Yun from years ago.

"This is absurd," Doctor Gao, assessing Xiaoshan's youth, was even less convinced of the young man's ability, saying, "Miss Bai, if something happens in the hospital, as the attending physician I'll be partly responsible. Tell him to stop right now."

Thinking of the hospital's rules, Doctor Gao became anxious and raised his voice.

"Su Su, are you not going to listen to Doctor Gao?" Bai Heming reprimanded.

"This..." Bai Susu found herself in a dilemma.

"Forget it, Doctor Gao, call security, this kid is a bit dangerous," Bai Heming told Doctor Gao.

"No need for that."

Just then, Long Xiaoshan's voice came through.

He had withdrawn the Golden Needle, his complexion slightly worn and his forehead somewhat sweaty, but his eyes were still bright. He glanced at Doctor Gao and said, "I'm finished with the treatment. Since you are the attending physician, you can examine the patient now. Whether or not I've acted recklessly, you'll know after your inspection."

Doctor Gao looked into Long Xiaoshan's calm and indifferent eyes.

He hesitated for a moment. If this were a common quack just trying to make money, he should be panicked and afraid when facing a professional doctor like him.

But he saw not a trace of panic in Long Xiaoshan's eyes.

There was only calmness and depth.

Only those who are truly powerful and confident would have such a gaze.

Doctor Gao glanced at the monitor beside him, his eyes narrowing. As a professional doctor, he could tell at a glance that the electrocardiogram now displayed showed enormous improvement compared to before, almost akin to that of a healthy person.

However, if it was just the heartbeat returning to normal suddenly, it could be explained as a fleeting rally, or forcibly stimulating potential.

Doctor Gao quickly directed the nurses and began to personally examine Old Master Bai's body.

All sorts of physical states were checked.

Heartbeat, body temperature, blood...

As data continued to be collected,

Doctor Gao's expression grew more and more astonished.

The massive amount of data showed that the patient's body had returned to a normal state, except for still being in a coma; other signs were not much different from those of a normal person.

How is this possible.

Old Master Bai had been lying in the hospital for half a year.

His physical condition was deteriorating with each passing day, and recently, he was solely reliant on IV drips to cling to life, with severe organ failure.

Because he was a professional, Doctor Gao found it all the more incredible.

This was simply impossible.

Watching Doctor Gao's face change continuously, now agitated, now thoughtful,

Bai Heming asked urgently, "Doctor Gao, is my dad not doing well?"

Ma Xiaohong, who had held herself back until now, finally couldn't resist jumping out to ridicule, "I told you, letting this kid treat, he'd cause problems! Bai Susu, if anything happens to the Old Master, it's your responsibility."

Bai Susu was completely flustered, with her heart in turmoil.

"What are you talking about! The patient is currently very stable, it's unbelievable, his body has almost recovered, this is a medical miracle, truly unbelievable," Doctor Gao blurted out in excitement, his overseas education causing him to slip into English.

"What?"

Everyone was stunned.

The Bai siblings and Ma Xiaohong all knew the extent of Old Master Bai's poor health, and hearing Doctor Gao suddenly say he had recovered,

their first reaction was disbelief.

"Impossible," Ma Xiaohong was the first to rebut, "Doctor Gao, could you have made a mistake? How could you say the Old Master has recovered?"

"Yes," Bai Heming also expressed his disbelief, "Doctor Gao, could there be an error in the examination results?"

Doctor Gao's face darkened as he said, "Are you doubting my professional competence? The examination reports are all here. It's possible for one result to be wrong, but could all the data be incorrect?"

"Well..." Bai Heming was left speechless.

Ma Xiaohong, still unwilling to give up, said, "Since you say he has recovered, why hasn't the Old Master woken up yet?"

"It is I who have kept him from waking," a faint voice interjected. Long Xiaoshan spoke, "I used the Golden Needle to gather the vital energy of life within Old Master Bai's body. He is not truly recovered. Although I could wake him up immediately, every action the patient takes upon waking would consume vital energy. Right now, the Old Master's vital energy is too scarce. If he remains in a comatose state, he could last at least two more months."

"Talking all mysteriously, what even is this vital energy," Ma Xiaohong scoffed disdainfully.

But Doctor Gao's eyes suddenly lit up.
