Chapter 185 : 185 This is a miracle!
"Family head Ouyang, please persuade the elder at once! The more we delay, the harder it will be to recover later!"
Ouyang Rong looked troubled. Once his father made up his mind, he wouldn't change it. As a son, he dared not casually alter his father's opinions; not getting slapped for it was already fortunate...
"How about letting Song Yun give it a try?"
Hearing this, several doctors nearly fumed with rage, almost rolling on the ground in anger!
They had finally come to understand the meaning of 'blindness'!
They had brilliant doctors at hand, yet trust was placed in a young man instead!
If it wasn't for old man Ouyang's distinguished status, they all would have liked to storm off in a huff!
"Help me prepare the silver needles, alcohol lamp, and these few herbs used in traditional medicine."
Song Yun listed out an order for Ouyang Jie to fetch from Divine Doctor Hall.
About half an hour later, everything was brought back. Song Yun first instructed Ouyang Jie to decoct the medicine and then picked up a needle, heating it red hot over the alcohol lamp before aiming for the acupuncture point on the elder's thigh.
"What are you doing!"
The medical team leader hurriedly protected the elder's thigh. If not for Song Yun's precise control over the strength, the needle really could have punctured anywhere.
"You reckless young man are simply toying with a human life! Family head Ouyang, I suggest you properly investigate his background!"
"Yeah, kid, are you sure you know the acupuncture points? Daring to needle recklessly!"
"Nonsense! Family head Ouyang, do you really want to see the elder's condition worsen!!!"
After hearing these doctors, Ouyang Rong himself started to have doubts. It was true that Song Yun had successfully treated the elder a few times before, but the situation had changed now. With several top doctors unanimously opposing, he was unsure what to do.
"Stand back! I trust that Song Yun won't harm grandpa!"
Ouyang Jie stepped forward, grabbing the medical team leader by the neck like he was picking up a chick.
"Ouyang Jie! Don't hurt your grandpa!"
"I trust my brother!"
"You... you impudent brat!"
Hearing this, Ouyang Rong became displeased. How I discipline my son is my business. You, a doctor, just do your duty, what's the need to meddle so much! Do you really think that if something truly happened to the elder, the Ouyang Family would secretly take delight in it?
"Captain Geng, my son is hot-tempered, you'd better keep your mouth shut."
Ouyang Rong said so indifferently, while Captain Geng clenched his teeth, glaring furiously at Ouyang Jie, cursing the shameless young man countless times in his heart!
"I'm going to proceed with the acupuncture now. If anyone else gets in the way, I won't mind using you for practice first."
After saying this, Song Yun focused on locating the acupuncture points again.
One, two, three...
Elder Ouyang Shu's limbs were densely studded with countless needles by Song Yun, a fearsome sight from a distance!
"Look at the color of the elder's skin!"
Captain Geng urgently shouted, "The nerves in the limbs are highly dense; the slightest mistake could cause a catastrophic collapse! Do you all still want to persist in this wrongdoing!!!"
"Shut up!"
This moment was critical. Song Yun, with sweat pouring down his face, dared not be distracted as he cautiously twisted different needles for the treatment, while the elder let out painful groans.
"Song, my body feels very hot, like my blood is about to boil..."
The elder murmured weakly, his lips cracked and voice barely audible.
Song Yun, too busy to wipe his sweat, reassured, "It will be over soon, just bear with it a bit longer."
After another tense ten minutes under the watchful eyes of the medical team, the elder was on the verge of passing out. Song Yun yelled at Ouyang Jie, "Where's the medicine you just decocted for me!"
"Oh... here it is."
Ouyang Jie hastily presented it to Song Yun.
Song Yun pried open the old man's mouth and poured it in.
"It's over... it's all over... my career, it's all gone..."
Captain Geng sat down on the ground with a thud. If something really happened to the old man today, and the blame came down from above, he would definitely be the first to take the fall!
After drinking the medicine, the old man's breathing eased a little, causing Captain Geng's eyes to light up. Could there really be a turning point?
But then Ouyang Shu's limbs began to convulse wildly, as if half of his life had already slipped away.
"Hold down the old man, I'm going to start removing the needles!"
As soon as he had said this, Song Yun could no longer pay attention to the frantic floundering of Ouyang Rong and his son.
He quickly removed the silver needles from the old man's limbs with extremely fast hand movements.
With the removal of each needle, a wisp of smoke rose, looking quite magical.
When all the needles had been removed, Song Yun collapsed on the ground, exhausted! It was more tiring than fighting a dozen strong men!
"Huff..."
The old man took a deep breath and opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and energetic.
He stood up and tried hopping and jumping around. Hey, it was true, after Song Yun's treatment, he felt thirty years younger!
"How is this possible..."
Captain Geng and the other doctors were dumbfounded. They were being mocked, weren't they?
Just randomly poking with needles and the old man recovered?
What was the need for them, the Western doctors, if just learning Traditional Chinese Medicine was enough?
"Old master, let me do a checkup for you first!"
Captain Geng and the doctors got busy again. After their examination, they were amazed to find that the old man was mostly healed, and would be fine with just some rest and recuperation!
A miracle!
No, this had to be called a divine feat!
"Young man, how did you do it?"
Captain Geng, rubbing his hands together, squatted beside Song Yun, asking curiously.
"Tired, get me a glass of water."
Song Yun said hoarsely, his throat parched.
Captain Geng scurried to get a glass of water and personally fed it to Song Yun.
After being nourished by the water, Song Yun felt his strength slowly returning.
He got up and sat on the chair, saying, "The main issue with the old master's limbs was due to drinking too much alcohol. Alcohol is fierce in nature, so I used silver needles to stimulate the acupoints and accelerate blood circulation, thus dispersing the alcohol content in the blood."
"At the peak, the old master's body was like iron being constantly tempered. The medicine prepared beforehand was all very cooling. The clash of cold and heat stimulated the old master's nerve cells in his limbs, causing the convulsions."
"Then I removed the needles to let off the 'steam,' completing the whole treatment."
"What was that 'steam'?"
"???"
Looking at Captain Geng as if he was an idiot, Song Yun said, "What do you think is produced when water and fire collide?"
"Oh, oh, oh..."
Although Captain Geng understood all the methods of treatment, he was still deeply engrossed in the process that had just taken place.
This young man was incredible! If he were twenty years younger, he would definitely prostrate himself and beg to become an apprentice without any shame!
"Song Yun, it's a bother to you again."
The old man felt slightly embarrassed seeing the depleted Song Yun.
"Old master, as long as you behave and don't do anything out of line, I would be thanking my lucky stars!"
