Xiao Yu followed Wang Shanshan through a dark corridor to the fifth floor and knocked on an old iron door on the eastern side.
"Who is it!" Shortly after, a woman's voice called out from inside.
"Mom, it's me!" Hearing the sound from inside, Wang Shanshan said at the door. As soon as she finished speaking, there was a 'click' and the lock on the door made a slight noise before the main door opened inward.
"Shanny, you didn't bring your key" The door slightly opened to reveal an elderly woman in her sixties addressing Wang Shanshan outside.
“Uh, I was in a hurry today and forgot! Mom, Doctor Xiao is here, please open the door quickly!” Hearing the elderly woman’s words, Wang Shanshan gave a apologetic smile then immediately showed an excited expression as she told the elderly woman inside.
"Oh, really" Upon hearing Wang Shanshan's words, the elderly lady was also very happy. They came to Deep Sea for nothing other than finding a doctor; it was just that the doctor went to Beijing and hadn't been around, but now he had finally returned—of course she was thrilled.
The elderly woman quickly removed the small chain lock hanging on the door and opened it. There wasn't much they could do since both of them were women who were unfamiliar with the area in Deep Sea, moreover their residence didn’t have a property management company or security personnel, so there was no way for them not to be careful.
This elderly woman was precisely Wang Shanshan's mother-in-law. After opening the main door, she saw Xiao Yu standing beside her and was startled by his youth even though she had heard about it long ago.
"Hm So young Is he able to treat illnesses" Although this elderly lady heard her daughter-in-law say that the doctor was very young, seeing Xiao Yu now still made her wonder if he could actually practice medicine.
However, no matter what she thought in her heart, she would not show it on her face, so she quickly invited him inside.
"Doctor Xiao, please sit!" After Xiao Yu came in, Wang Shanshan brought a stool and handed it to Xiao Yu.
After entering the house, Xiao Yu carefully observed the room. It was a one-bedroom apartment with only a few simple pieces of furniture inside; there was a TV cabinet, dining table, set of simple sofas, foldable steel bed, and several stools in the living room.
The bedroom door was tightly shut beside which was just enough space for one person to pass through. At the other end of this narrow corridor was a small balcony, which had been converted into a kitchen. The kitchen contained numerous pots, bowls, ladles, and other daily necessities.
However, the room was surprisingly clean and tidy.
"No need to sit down. Let's go see the patient first!" Upon hearing Wang Shanshan's words, Xiao Yu didn't sit down but instead spoke to them.
Xiao Yu is a doctor, yet he understands the mindset of the families of these patients very well. They all wish for their loved ones to be cured immediately by the doctors. Therefore, whenever Xiao Yu sees or treats patients, he doesn’t engage in any unnecessary pleasantries; treating the patient comes first. Resting after seeing them is not an issue.
What makes a good doctor In his heart, Xiao Yu has only one standard: always think from the perspective of the patient and their family.
Hearing what Xiao Yu said, both Wang Shanshan and her mother-in-law immediately showed signs of joy. They would have preferred him to start treating the patient right away but out of politeness had to maintain a formal demeanor. Thus, they were secretly grateful for his words at that moment.
"Okay, okay! Dr. Xiao, please follow me!" Wang Shanshan's mother-in-law quickly said and then headed towards the bedroom.
“Dr. Xiao, this way…” Seeing her mother-in-law open the bedroom door, Wang Shanshan hurriedly walked to Xiao Yu’s side, gesturing him forward with an extended hand.
Xiao Yu nodded and followed them into the bedroom. It was a small room of around ten square meters with just one bed and a cabinet inside.
Lying on the bed was a man in his thirties; he looked pale but otherwise seemed to be asleep.
"Pull out his hand!" Xiao Yu walked up to the bedside, observing the patient who was tightly covered under the quilt, said.
“Sure!” Upon hearing Dr. Xiao’s words, Wang Shanshan responded promptly and quickly pulled one of the patient's hands from underneath the covers.
"Dr. Xiao, please sit down!" At this moment, Wang Shanshan's mother-in-law brought a stool from elsewhere and placed it behind Xiao Yu.
“Thank you!” Xiao Yu thanked her and sat on the stool, gently placing his hand on the patient’s wrist. He then closed his eyes halfway and stayed motionless there.
Seeing Dr. Xiao's manner, Wang Shanshan and her mother-in-law immediately fell silent; they didn’t even dare to breathe heavily for fear of disturbing him while he was treating the patient.
The two people stood by and watched as Xiao Yu took the patient's pulse. Every time Xiao Yu’s eyebrows furrowed slightly while taking the pulse, it made both of them feel anxious.
After a moment, Xiao Yu removed his hand from the patient’s wrist and closed his eyes in deep thought before slowly opening them again.
"Doctor, what's the situation Can he be treated" Wang Shanshan asked quickly as soon as she saw that Xiao Yu had opened his eyes.
Seeing both of them looking at him, Xiao Yu said, "I’ll do my best to try!" After saying this, he looked at the unconscious patient and then scanned the room. He continued, "Come help me position him so that his head faces outward."
Hearing what Xiao Yu said, Wang Shanshan and her mother-in-law hurriedly got up onto the bed to move the unconscious man lying on it. Although Xiao Yu had only said he would do his best without making any promises, they could see from his expression that he was quite confident. Besides, they didn't have any other options but to leave everything in Xiao Yu's hands; after all, what’s the worst that could happen
Xiao Yu helped Wang Shanshan and her mother-in-law adjust the position of the unconscious patient on the bed so that he was no longer lying horizontally but vertically. At this point, Xiao Yu pulled the man’s body outward slightly with his hands to leave his head suspended in mid-air.
After positioning the patient properly, Xiao Yu walked over and took the pulse again. After a moment, he released the patient's wrist and nodded inwardly.
Xiao Yu turned around and retrieved an acupuncture kit from his medical box on the stool, pulling out one gold needle from it.
With the gold needle in hand, Xiao Yu walked slowly towards the suspended head of the unconscious man. He extended his left hand to touch the patient's head and closed his eyes as he felt around with his hands over the head.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu’s eyes snapped open while still blindfolded; a glimmer appeared in his gaze as he firmly pressed down on the patient's head with his left hand. Then, holding the gold needle in his right hand, he carefully found a point and slowly inserted it downward.
Xiao Yu activated the righteous energy technique, causing a slight golden glow to appear at the tip of the gold needle in his hand. As soon as Xiao Yu’s gold needle entered the patient's head, he rapidly twirled the needle with his right hand. With each twist, the glowing needle slowly penetrated deeper into the patient's skull.
The human skull is one of the hardest bones in the body, while the gold needle was extremely soft. Xiao Yu now used this soft gold needle to pierce through the patient’s skull and insert it into his brain.
Without the righteous energy technique, not only would Xiao Yu be unable to heal him, but he wouldn’t even be able to penetrate the patient's skull with the gold needle.
The tip of the gold needle, glowing golden under Xiao Yu’s manipulation, slowly broke through the patient’s skull. Without any other observers present, if an experienced acupuncturist were here, they would know how difficult Xiao Yu was making this procedure.
When Xiao Yu's golden needle entered one-quarter of the way, he abruptly stopped twirling it. The spot where the needle was inserted could be considered the densest part of this patient’s brain nerves, and Xiao Yu dared not take any chances.
Xiao Yu took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and once again focused all his attention on the golden needle in his hand. His five senses were also fully concentrated on the needle, allowing his spirit to extend through it into this man's brain.
With meticulous care, Xiao Yu held onto the tail of the needle with his fingers and gently pushed it further into the patient’s head by a little bit before stopping abruptly. Then he moved his two fingers slightly, slowly twirling the golden needle, causing it to gradually rotate inside the man's skull.
As Xiao Yu rotated the needle, a drop of black blood slowly oozed out from where the needle was inserted and eventually fell down.
Xiao Yu glanced at the fallen black blood droplet but continued focusing his full attention on the golden needle. At this point, sweat beads were pouring down his forehead and his face had turned somewhat pale. However, despite this, Xiao Yu did not stop; instead, he continued to twirl the needle slowly.
About fifteen or so minutes later, another drop of black blood dropped from the needle before Xiao Yu finally withdrew it from the patient's head.
After removing the golden needle, Xiao Yu let out a long sigh and wiped away the sweat on his forehead lightly.
The moment Xiao Yu relaxed mentally, an overwhelming sense of fatigue hit him. He even felt like sitting still without moving for a while. Although it seemed simple earlier, it had required him to concentrate all his mental energy and effort completely, daring not to be careless.
Even the slightest deviation could have resulted in this patient’s immediate death.
This acupuncture session only eliminated a small part of the large blood clot in the patient's head, and that was just an external portion. The blood clot in the man's brain was enormous and located precisely where the nerves were most concentrated, so Xiao Yu had no choice but to proceed cautiously. This first needle insertion was merely exploratory, probing into one corner of the blood clot before breaking it up and expelling this part.
Sitting on a stool, Xiao Yu rapidly circulated his righteous energy technique inside him for a moment. Once he felt somewhat recovered, he stood up from the stool and said, "That's all for today! We'll continue with acupuncture tomorrow! Also remember to find a barber who can shave off his hair; it will be more convenient that way during the needle insertion!"
Xiao Yu declined Wang Shanshan and her mother-in-law’s invitation to stay longer, got up, and left for his clinic.
