A young boy from the 1970s, separated from his family, fled famine and led his younger brother into
Chapter 36 The Little Divine Doctor Becomes Famous
"Quick! Get him to the hospital! This child might not make it!"
"Pinch the philtrum! Yes! Quickly pinch the philtrum!"
"No, no, he's convulsing so badly, his mouth is clenched so tightly, he might bite his tongue off!"
The location where the child had the accident was instantly surrounded by layers upon layers of people. Everyone was offering various suggestions, but no one dared to actually step forward.
The young mother was completely panicked. All she could do was hold her child and cry her heart out. Her husband, a bespectacled man who looked refined, was equally at a loss, sweating profusely. He wanted to pinch the child's philtrum but was afraid of hurting the child, and paced around anxiously.
"Make way! Make way! Don't crowd around! Let the air circulate!"
Amidst the chaos, a clear and authoritative child's voice suddenly rang out!
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a small, thin figure struggling to squeeze through the gaps in the crowd. It was Su Nianci!
"Nianciwazi! Danger! Don't go over there!" Wang Dazhu followed behind her, trying to stop her, but he couldn't.
Su Nianci quickly squeezed to the very back and stood in front of the young mother.
"Auntie! Don't cry! Holding him like this will make it harder for him to breathe!" Su Nianci's expression was calm and serious, completely out of character for her age.
The young mother looked up, her eyes brimming with tears, and saw a little girl talking to her. She was stunned for a moment, then cried even harder: "My baby... my baby is dying... what should I do..."
"He won't die!" Su Nianci said firmly. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was like a shot of adrenaline, causing the mother's crying to pause.
The people around were also stunned.
"Hey, where did this little girl come from? She's bragging without even thinking!" A man in the crowd, always eager for drama, sneered. "Even adults can't do anything about it, what does a little kid like you know? Don't make things worse!"
"That's right! Don't delay the rescue! Get out of the way!"
"I think this child is desperate to show off! Quickly pull her away!"
Questions and rebukes rose and fell.
The bespectacled father also grew anxious. His eyes reddened as he shouted at Su Nianci, "Young lady, thank you for your kindness! But this isn't the place for you to cause trouble! Please move aside! We...we'll take him to the hospital right away!"
As he spoke, he reached out to hug the child.
"It's too late!" Su Nianci grabbed his hand and said rapidly, "It takes at least fifteen minutes to get to the nearest hospital from here! He's suffering from laryngeal edema and respiratory muscle spasms due to febrile seizures, and he's severely oxygen-deprived! In five minutes at most, his brain will suffer permanent damage from lack of oxygen! Even if he survives, he'll be mentally disabled! He might even suffocate on the way!"
This string of medical terms, so professional it was enough to make one's scalp crawl, was uttered with crystal clarity from the mouth of a five-year-old girl, instantly stunning everyone present!
What? Laryngeal edema... respiratory muscle spasm... brain hypoxia...
They couldn't understand any of those words! But they could understand the last sentence—"Even if they were saved, they'd be an idiot" and "They'd suffocate to death!"
All the doubts and mockery vanished at that moment. An eerie silence fell over the entire scene.
Everyone was looking at Su Nianci as if she were a monster.
The bespectacled father was so terrified that his lips trembled. Looking into Su Nianci's frighteningly calm eyes, he was speechless for a moment. Because in those eyes, he saw an absolute confidence and professionalism he had never seen before!
"Then...then tell me...what should we do?" His voice trembled as he almost instinctively asked the five-year-old girl for help.
Su Nianci knew that she had successfully seized the initiative.
"Lay him flat on the ground! Loosen his collar! Turn his head to one side to prevent vomit from blocking his airway!" she immediately gave her first instruction.
The father seemed to have found his pillar of support and immediately began to frantically follow suit.
"You!" Su Nianci pointed to a rather clever-looking young man in the crowd, "Go and fetch a basin of cold water right now! The sooner the better!"
"And you! Ma'am!" She pointed to a woman next to her carrying a cloth bag, "Can I borrow the towel from your bag?"
Those she pointed to instinctively obeyed her instructions.
In an instant, the entire chaotic scene was directed in perfect order by a five-year-old girl!
Wang Dazhu stood outside the crowd, watching this scene with his mouth agape, wide enough to fit an egg. He felt his brain was completely overwhelmed.
This Nianci child... just what kind of deity is he reincarnated?!
Soon, cold water and towels were brought over.
"Wet the towels! Apply them to his forehead, the sides of his neck, his armpits, and his groin! These areas have major arteries, so they can bring down his body temperature the fastest!" Su Nianci instructed as she squatted down herself.
She stretched out her small but remarkably steady hands and, without the slightest hesitation, pinched the child's philtrum firmly with her thumb!
At the same time, with her other hand, she spread her index finger and thumb and pressed precisely on the Hegu acupoint at the base of the thumb on the back of the child's hand!
The philtrum (Ren Zhong) awakens the mind and clears the senses! The He Gu point (He Gu) relieves spasms and clears heat!
These are two of the most crucial acupoints in Traditional Chinese Medicine emergency treatment!
Although she was a Western doctor in her past life, she had also studied the meridian theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine in depth in order to better understand the human body. Now, this knowledge became a life-saving treasure!
Her strength was extremely precise! She had to ensure sufficient stimulation without damaging the child's delicate skin.
Time passed, second by second.
Everyone held their breath, watching the small, thin figure crouching on the ground with bated breath.
At that moment, she seemed not to be a child, but a seasoned surgeon racing against death at the operating table! She exuded a chilling aura of absolute control!
One minute……
Two minutes...
The child who was convulsing did not seem to be getting better; his limbs were still shaking violently.
Whispers began to rise again from the crowd.
"Is it working? Why isn't there any response yet?"
"I think this is just nonsense! Now look what's happened, you've made the child even more agitated!"
The bespectacled father's forehead was covered in cold sweat, which trickled down his cheeks. His confidence was beginning to waver.
"Little...little girl, maybe...we should take her to the hospital..." he said, trembling.
Su Nianci ignored him, her gaze remaining fixed on the child's face. A fine layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
She knew that seizures had a certain periodicity. Forced intervention wouldn't be very effective. What she was doing now was simply trying her best to maintain the child's vital signs and buy him time!
Just when everyone's patience was about to run out, a miracle happened!
The child who had been convulsing violently suddenly began to experience a decrease in the intensity of his tremors!
His little face, which had turned purple from lack of oxygen, gradually began to regain some color!
Then, his clenched teeth loosened slightly, and he let out a weak, kitten-like groan.
"Wow--"
A weak but incredibly clear cry suddenly burst from the child's mouth!
It worked!
Become!
Everyone present breathed a long sigh of relief!
The young mother was overjoyed and wept, collapsing to the ground.
Upon hearing that cry, Su Nianci felt as if all the strength had been drained from her body. She let go, her small body swayed, and she plopped down on the ground, panting heavily.
Those few minutes were a huge drain on her mental and physical strength.
She succeeded.
Once again, she snatched a life back from the clutches of death!
