14: Chapter 14 Act in Ti 14: Chapter 14 Act in Ti But as he weaved through the crowd and descended the outside stairs of the hall, Chen Yang began a countdown under his breath.
“Ten, nine, eight…
one!”
The mont the last word left Chen Yang’s lips, the complexion of Old Master Li, who was seated in his wheelchair in the hall behind, changed drastically, and then, with a puff, he spat out a mouthful of rich blood!
At the sa ti, his body began to convulse violently, and foam even started to froth at his mouth, looking far more serious than his previous gasping for breath.
Such a violent reaction from Old Master Li took everyone at the scene by surprise.
President Li was so shocked and panicked that she threw herself onto Old Master Li.
“Grandpa!
Grandpa, what’s wrong with you?
Where do you feel uncomfortable?” President Li cried out in desperation, lifting the nearly unconscious Old Master Li to ask him.
But how could the convulsing old man manage to speak?
He could only continue frothing at the mouth, his body shaking uncontrollably.
“Doctor Huang?!
What’s happening here, why has my grandpa’s condition suddenly worsened?” President Li turned her head indifferently, asking Doctor Huang with a cold tone, who stood by, equally frightened.
Doctor Huang was flustered, this situation was completely unexpected for him.
“President Li…
President Li, don’t panic, let first check on Old Master Li.
Maybe there are other diseases that haven’t been detected in him,” Doctor Huang said, his forehead streaming with cold sweat, squatting down to continue examining Old Master Li’s body.
At that mont, he noticed that Old Master Li’s breathing was growing heavier, each breath coming with a deep, guttural sound—a sign that the situation was becoming extrely critical.
Moreover, Old Master Li had coughed up blood just now.
If the asthmatic condition had deteriorated to this point, it could be life-threatening!
Doctor Huang lost his composure in a panic, and his only thought was to quickly bring Old Master Li’s condition under control.
“Quick!
Bring another cup of water!
It must be because Old Master Li didn’t take enough dicine just now, so the illness has rebounded!” Doctor Huang said nervously to the reception manager nearby.
“Yes, yes!
I’ll get the water!” The reception manager was also not a little scared, and he picked up the cup to fetch water.
However, at this mont, President Li suddenly ca to her senses and rembered what Chen Yang had said before.
“You still want to give my grandpa dicine?
Do you want his condition to worsen even more?” President Li rebuked sharply.
It was then that she began to sowhat believe what Chen Yang had said.
Because the current situation was exactly as Chen Yang had described: after taking the dicine, within five minutes, Old Master Li would certainly cough up blood!
“President Li…
If not dicine, then what else can be done?” Doctor Huang, who was already trembling with fear and at a loss, even asked President Li how to treat Old Master Li.
“Quack!
You’re asking how to treat him?” President Li was furious, and she slapped Doctor Huang across the face, then turned around and shouted to her bodyguard behind her, “Call an ambulance!
Call an ambulance now!”
“Yes!” The bodyguard nodded hastily, then took out his cellphone to contact the ambulance.
“It will take at least twenty minutes for the ambulance to get here, and the rescue may take even longer.
Old Master Li probably can’t wait that long.”
“Ah, why didn’t I listen to that young man just now and check more thoroughly?
Now the trouble is really big.”
At this ti, the chaotic crowd also rembered Chen Yang.
Everyone lanted that they hadn’t heeded Chen Yang’s words and checked Old Master Li thoroughly.
Listening to the exclamations of the people around her, President Li suddenly realized what she had to do.
She pushed through the crowd and chased out of the hall.
The ambulance was still a long way off, and there was no hope with Doctor Huang, the quack!
The only one who could save her grandpa now was the young man who had made such an accurate prediction earlier!
Just now that young man had only glanced at her grandpa, and he was able to accurately predict the consequences that followed, even down to the specific timing; his dical skills were beyond Doctor Huang by who knows how much.
Rushing out of the Puji Hall, President Li looked around and spotted Chen Yang sitting not far away on an electric tricycle.
Chen Yang was still waiting to sell his dicinal herbs, so he hadn’t rushed to leave.
Seeing the frantic President Li rushing out, Chen Yang knew that his prediction must have co true.
“Please wait, sir!”
Sure enough, as soon as she saw Chen Yang, President Li imdiately rushed over.
“Sir, forgive my earlier rudeness, my grandpa really is as you said; he’s spitting up blood and in a very critical condition.”
“Please help and save him.
If you cure my grandpa, I will be greatly indebted to you!”
President Li earnestly pleaded for Chen Yang to intervene; she had only that one grandpa who cherished her and could not afford to lose him.
Seeing President Li’s sincere expression, Chen Yang nodded lightly.
A healer’s heart is a parent’s heart; he had no intention of holding a grudge against President Li.
“A big reward is unnecessary.
Let go inside and have a look,” Chen Yang said as he jumped down from the tricycle, then he and President Li ran back to the hall with urgency.
The originally noisy crowd quieted down instantly when they saw President Li call Chen Yang back.
At the sa ti, they also very tacitly cleared a path for Chen Yang and President Li to pass through.
Chen Yang squatted down to check on the convulsing old Mr.
Li, who was foaming at the mouth and had a hazy look in his eyes.
Indeed, just as he expected, old Mr.
Li who had taken acute dication was now in a very critical condition, even to the point of threatening his life.
If they had waited any longer, old Mr.
Li could have died at any mont.
“Do you have paper and a pen?” Chen Yang suddenly stood up, turned his head and asked President Li.
“Paper and pen?
Yes!” President Li was initially startled, then nodded and took paper and a pen out of her bag.
Chen Yang took the paper and pen, then wrote down dozens of Chinese herbal dicine nas in a row and handed the list to the tearful and distraught President Li.
“Prepare the dicine according to the prescription here, then boil it for half an hour and administer it to the old man!”
“Yes!
Okay!” President Li hastily nodded, then turned and gave the prescription to the suited bodyguards behind her.
“President Li!
This is just a young man who studied dical school for two years, you can’t listen to him!
If anything happens to the old man, the consequences would be unimaginable,” Dr.
Huang, despite his panic, was still unwilling to see Chen Yang treat old Mr.
Li, because of how he had previously ridiculed Chen Yang.
If old Mr.
Li was truly cured by him, not only would he beco a quack doctor, but he would also beco the laughingstock of the entire county.
However, President Li just gave him a cold glare, her voice icy as she said, “I think leaving him in your hands would have unimaginable consequences!
I rember everything you did today, and if I find out there was sothing wrong with your treatnt, I won’t let you off easy!”
After saying this, she imdiately sent a aningful look towards the bodyguards behind her.
The well-dressed bodyguards imdiately understood and took action to drag out the visibly panicked Dr.
Huang.
After completing all this, President Li’s gaze returned to Chen Yang, who had already started to work, using a strange technique to massage old Mr.
Li.
Chen Yang’s hands road over old Mr.
Li’s body, each press focused on critical acupoints.
In no ti, the old man who had been foaming at the mouth and convulsing started to show noticeable signs of improvent in complexion.
Moreover, the frequency of convulsions decreased, showing signs of improvent.
As ti went on, old Mr.
Li’s body was soothed and completely cald down.
‘Ugh…’
After about ten more minutes of massage, the previously calm old Mr.
Li suddenly shuddered and then bent over to vomit.
He expelled all the dications he had previously ingested.
After vomiting all the acute dications, the ashen-faced old Mr.
Li’s complexion quickly began to turn rosy.
Seeing old Mr.
Li noticeably getting better, an extrely anxious President Li almost broke down in tears.
Old Mr.
Li was finally safe.
“Grandfather…” President Li whispered, chokingly emotional.
“Don’t talk yet, the old man is recuperating and cannot be disturbed,” Chen Yang turned to say to the excited President Li.
President Li quickly covered her mouth with her hand, afraid to disrupt Chen Yang.
A little while later, Chen Yang stopped the special technique he was using and checked over the old man, who was now breathing evenly again.
“The old man has suffered from asthma for many years, and such stubborn asthma must not be treated with acute dications; it requires the gentle, gradual conditioning of Chinese dicine,” Chen Yang turned and said to President Li: “Once the dicine is prepared, give it to the old man, and he will get well.”
“Thank you…
Thank you, sir,” President Li said, bursting with gratitude.
Chen Yang waved his hand and said nothing more.
Seeing old Mr.
Li, who was on the brink of death, now easily cured by Chen Yang, those who had previously ridiculed Chen Yang were all ashad, bowing their heads.
The onlookers who had been discussing Chen Yang also changed their tune, starting to praise him as the Divine Doctor.
It seed as if they had forgotten how they had mocked Chen Yang before.
Just as everyone was praising the Divine Doctor, the bodyguards who had gone to prepare the dicine returned with a steaming pot of dicine.
“President Li!
The dicine is ready!” said the bodyguard, respectfully.
“Give it to that gentleman!” President Li directed, pointing at Chen Yang.
The bodyguard nodded, then turned and handed the pot of dicine to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang, adhering to the principle of seeing things through, did not refuse.
Picking up the pot, he poured a bowl of steaming, fragrant brown dicinal liquid, and then carefully helped old Mr.
Li drink it.
Just a few minutes after taking the dicine, old Mr.
Li’s consciousness cleared instantly, his complexion returned to normal, and at that mont, he looked no different from any ordinary elderly person.
