Chapter 156: Chapter 135 Saving People

Right hand covering his face, today was destined to be a day of shame.

"Big brother, let me talk to it," Zhong Tian said naively, before speaking to the Ginseng Doll, squeezing out a drop of fresh blood just like before. The Ginseng Doll repeatedly shook its head, chirping words that Li Chen simply couldn’t understand.

"This drop of blood is very important to me," Zhong Tian said earnestly, "It can help my big brother."

The Ginseng Doll still shook its head, but seeing Zhong Tian’s sincere and earnest face, it showed a look of difficulty.

Li Chen stood by. As Zhong Tian continued to plead, the Ginseng Doll’s expression turned into a troubled frown.

After a good while of Zhong Tian’s requests, the Ginseng Doll raised its head, then stretched out its small, plump, white hand, and with a pained face, squeezed out a drop of blood. Instantly, a white Blood Bead emerged from its hand, which it handed to Zhong Tian.

Li Chen, seeing this, was delighted, and quickly touched Zhong Tian’s finger with his own. In an instant, the white Blood Bead rolled onto Li Chen’s fingertip.

Upon close examination, the blood of the Ginseng Doll was indeed different from that of humans—delicate and smooth, like a tiny bead.

After giving the blood, the Ginseng Doll hopped onto the top of Zhong Tian’s head, grabbing his hair, and cried out "Ya ya ya," seemingly complaining to Zhong Tian.

Zhong Tian gave a simple smile, while Li Chen offered his thanks. Then, he went out to buy a porcelain bottle, immediately secured the Blood Bead inside and headed straight for the hospital.

Upon arriving at Grandma Wang Qianqian’s hospital room, aside from Wang Qianqian, there was also a middle-aged couple by the bedside. The well-dressed woman seemed to have tear stains at the corners of her eyes—as if she had just cried—while the bespectacled man appeared very solemn, with an air of gravity.

Without a doubt, they were Wang Qianqian’s parents.

At this moment, Wang Qianqian was still softly sobbing, while her grandma remained in a coma. Nearby, a bunch of doctors and nurses were busy. On the other beds, some patients were also looking towards them, sighing silently to themselves.

"Doctor, is there any hope?" Wang Qianqian’s father asked.

"We’ve done all we can," a doctor turned around to say, "She is currently in a state of decline, which are the symptoms of someone at the end stages of life. All we can do is try to extend her life, but at most, no more than three days."

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman dabbed at her tears with a handkerchief, "Doctor, you have to do your best. If you can save her, money is not an issue."

"It’s not a matter of money, we really cannot save her," the doctor sighed, "Prepare yourselves mentally."

At this moment, Li Chen stepped forward.

"Qianqian."

Wang Qianqian raised her head and saw Li Chen.

"Brother Cheen," Wang Qianqian answered with a choke.

"Don’t worry, Qianqian, Brother Cheen can help save your grandma," Li Chen said with a smile.

But as soon as he finished speaking, all the doctors and nurses looked over at him.

"Young man, don’t talk nonsense," the doctor who spoke before frowned, thinking how ignorant people were about medicine. How could one save a dying person?

Were they supposed to resurrect the dead?

They were doctors, not witch doctors!

"Young man, I know you mean well," Wang Qianqian’s father began, "but what has to happen will happen, and we have prepared ourselves mentally."

Another patient in the bed beside them sighed again. It was such a shame; this old lady’s family was harmonious, and her children were dutiful. She should have enjoyed more happiness with her family—how could she be gone just like that?

Li Chen gave a slight smile, "Uncle, I’m not just talking big. I’m confident that I can bring her back!"

The initial shock turned to joy in Wang Qianqian’s father’s eyes, "Really?"

"You young people really don’t know the limits of heaven and earth," another doctor who could no longer stay silent spoke up, "Are you suggesting that our medical diagnostic equipment is wrong? Clearly, this elderly person is beyond help, and after so many years of practicing medicine, we can judge these basic symptoms. You say she can be saved? Life and death are natural laws!"

The doctor’s tone was extremely severe, and the patient in the adjoining bed also couldn’t help but comment, "This young man is too full of himself."

"Yes, although we can understand his feelings, showing off is useless."

Wang Qianqian’s mother wiped away her tears, "We appreciate your kind intentions, but if it really is time for someone to go, there’s no turning back."

Upon hearing the doctor’s words, the joy on Wang Qianqian’s father’s face faded, "Ah, young man, don’t get my hopes up only to let me down."

"Uncle, just let me try and you’ll know," Li Chen said calmly, "I will definitely bring her back to life."

Hearing such a solemn promise from Li Chen, Qianqian’s eyes sparkled with light. Whenever Li Chen was this confident, she felt an inexplicable trust in him, as if whatever he said, he could achieve!

Time and again in the past, Li Chen had indeed done just that—delivered on his promises!

And now, with such conviction from Li Chen, naturally, Wang Qianqian couldn’t help but feel elated. It seemed that Li Chen might truly be able to make it happen.

"Alright," Wang Qianqian’s father immediately nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the patient’s family had consented, the group of doctors had nothing more to say. However, they looked at Li Chen with unfriendly eyes; this man was obviously insulting modern medicine!

"Excuse me, please make way," Li Chen said with a chuckle, looking at the doctor in front of him.

"Hmph," the doctor snorted coldly, then stepped aside with the others. They were curious to see how Li Chen was going to revive the patient.

Deep down, they didn’t believe for a second that Li Chen could bring the person back to life. How could he save an old person on the verge of death, whose bodily organs were all failing?

Moreover, at this moment, the old person’s body was extremely fragile and couldn’t withstand some of the more aggressive medications. Besides waiting for death, there were basically no other options.

Once everyone had stepped away from the bedside, Li Chen also wore a smile as he raised his head to the doctors, "Um, could a few of you come over and help me prop up the elder lady?"

A doctor who had been quiet beckoned to the nurses beside him, and the two nurses walked over to assist Li Chen in propping up the elderly patient.

"Take off her upper garment," directed Li Chen, while he pulled out a porcelain bottle containing the Ginseng Doll Blood Pearl and a set of silver needles from his pocket.

"What do you need to take her clothes off for?" the previously outspoken doctor asked with a frown.

"Oh, my healing method is somewhat special; I use acupuncture," Li Chen replied with a slight smile. "The elderly person is old, their skin is loose, and it’s hard to locate the acupoints accurately, so I need her to remove her clothes."
