"I really didn’t touch him just now, you all saw it, you have to testify for !" This was all Xiao Hao could think about now. The old gentleman had stopped breathing right in front of him, and he was the last person to have contact with him. If the elderly man’s family made a fuss, his future would really be ruined.
"Brother Hao, I told you before, don’t get so close, but you didn’t listen!" The classmate who had previously advised Xiao Hao now complained a bit, but his next words were rather empathetic: "Don’t worry, I don’t know about others, but I will definitely stand by you. If even a good person like you gets wronged, I’ll stand up for you!"
"Brother Hao, don’t worry, we’ll all testify for you!" The people gathered around chid in.
Xiao Lin ran over quickly, pulling out his weapon—the Silver Needle. To Xiao Lin, the Silver Needle was his weapon. On the playground, a young man in a denim T-shirt ran towards the gathering crowd at an incredible speed, leaving the students who hoped Xiao Lin would co stunned. This speed? Could match that of a world champion!
"Make way, make way, the Golden Needle Saint Hand doctor is coming, don’t delay the treatnt!" shouted the students at the outer layer towards those inside.
"Make way for what, the person inside has already stopped breathing, how can he be saved?" A couple of students shouted.
Xiao Lin, who was already on the periter, naturally heard what the students said and was shocked. The person had already stopped breathing? The heart had stopped beating? But he had only taken a few seconds to run over, even if the heart had suddenly stopped, there might still be hope. He quickly said, "Move aside, there should still be a chance!"
Even though the students said so, they automatically made way as Xiao Lin was a doctor. Xiao Lin quickly saw the old gentleman lying on his side on the ground, and indeed, upon looking, the old gentleman had stopped breathing.
Xiao Lin rushed over, quickly laid the old gentleman flat, and placed his hand on the old gentleman’s pulse. Then he asked the classmate squatting beside the old man, "What symptoms did you see when you ca over?"
"The old gentleman was clutching his chest, panting heavily, with large beads of sweat on his forehead?" Xiao Hao answered seriously.
"Clutching his chest? Sweating? Panting heavily?" Xiao Lin frowned slightly, quite certain that the old gentleman was suffering from heart disease. However, he couldn’t determine what type of heart disease it was. Clutching the chest and sweating indicated that he was in great pain during the onset, likely angina or worse, acute myocardial infarction.
Moreover, the pulse had basically stopped, making it impossible from a traditional Chinese dicine perspective to determine why the heart and breathing stopped.
"You’ve learned cardiopulmonary resuscitation, right? Support the old gentleman well, keep his head tilted back!" Xiao Lin imdiately commanded. Xiao Hao dared not delay, though his classmates said they’d testify for him, now that a doctor was here and it seed there was hope, he gladly helped.
The classmates nearby hesitated, looking at Xiao Lin with calm curiosity, sowhat doubting that Xiao Lin could bring back the old gentleman, although they knew so CPR themselves, the elderly man had more than just a sudden heart stoppage.
After Xiao Hao had supported the old gentleman, Xiao Lin softly tapped on the old gentleman’s heart three tis, each ti louder than before, even Xiao Hao could hear the knocks.
This tapping held knowledge, for soone whose heart stopped from overexertion or exhaustion, these three knocks had an 80% chance of restarting the heart’s pacing.
However, it was clear that the old gentleman did not suffer from a heart stoppage due to exhaustion or overexertion, but due to his heart disease.
Xiao Hao suddenly rembered the dication the old gentleman pointed to earlier and quickly said, "Right, doctor, earlier the old gentleman ntioned dicine. I guess there’s still dicine in his pocket. But just as I was about to get it out, his heart stopped, and he stopped breathing!"
"It’s no use now. Whether it’s gaseous, solid, or liquid first aid drugs, the patient is in a state of apparent death, with bodily functions at a halt; it’s impossible to stimulate any drug effect!" Xiao Lin said as he prepared the Silver Needle, not bothering about disinfecting it at this point as ti was critical. He then instructed Xiao Hao, "Hold the old gentleman steady!"
Xiao Lin flicked his right hand, instantly inserting the Silver Needles into the Shenn, Hegu, Sanyinjiao, and Quchi points, while his left hand secretly channeled the Nine Dragons True Qi to tap the gentleman’s chest. At this mont, Xiao Hao looked at the Silver Needles with amazent. The four needles on the old gentleman were not stationary, but slowly rotating. If he hadn’t been so close and watching carefully, he wouldn’t have noticed.
Seeing that the old gentleman had no response, but noticing the neck pulse moved slightly, Xiao Lin knew he pressed correctly. He then picked up the last Silver Needle and inserted it into the Shan Zhong point. The insertion was not fast, slowly piercing in, with the Silver Needle carrying a stream of Nine Dragons True Qi, pushing through the lungs to cause the stagnant blood to flow slowly.
"Classmate, give the old gentleman artificial respiration!" Xiao Lin sensed from the Silver Needles that the old gentleman’s blood was beginning to circulate slowly. Even though it was just a trickle, he knew the old gentleman would be fine.
He had started artificial respiration at this point because Xiao Lin had already resolved the problem stemming from the gentleman’s heart pain-induced blood halt that stopped the heart temporarily. Anything left required simple CPR. Initially resorting to standard CPR would not have been enough to restore the gentleman’s heart due to insufficient internal energy.
Xiao Hao wasn’t squeamish about it, directly applying mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration to the old gentleman with notably precise technique. Xiao Lin nodded to himself; this kid had guts, staying so calm in such a situation.
The classmates standing nearby watched with wide eyes, not daring to laugh, all feeling a newfound respect for Xiao Hao—the captain of the school basketball team was not only handso and kind-hearted but even adept in life-saving, truly one of the prominent figures of Yan University.
A minute later, the old gentleman’s throat made a clicking sound, followed by the sound of breathing as his heart started beating again.
At this point, Xiao Lin retrieved a bottle of dication from the old gentleman’s pocket. Seeing the gentleman breathing and his heart beating again, he quickly poured the ergency dicine into the old gentleman’s mouth.
Then, from a distance, the sound of an ambulance could be heard—the ergency calls made earlier allowed the dics to arrive promptly.
