This question made Li Qiuchan hesitate.
Although Su Hao was exceptionally skilled, medical skills, unlike other areas, required seniority.
"I can save her!" Su Hao gave Li Qiuchan a definite answer.
He immediately saw through Old Master Li's problem; this little ailment was nothing to him.
Su Hao's confidence inexplicably aroused a sense of anticipation in Li Qiuchan.
"Miss Li."
At this moment, Feng Yizhen, who had been silent all along, finally spoke, his tone displeased.
"I have practiced medicine for fifty years, yet I am still powerless to help Elder Li with his condition. This young friend is so young, he probably hasn't even finished reading the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic yet, has he? Treating the sick and saving lives is no child's play, so please don't waste Elder Li's last moments."
Li Qiuchan looked at Su Hao, who remained calm and instead questioned Feng Yizhen, "Are you sure your diagnosis is correct?"
"Old Master Li's pulse is already weak and his breath is failing; he is certain to die. What's wrong with this diagnosis?"
That's a diagnosis, not a treatment.
Feng Yizhen's face darkened: "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, you made a mistake in your diagnosis."
Su Hao hit the nail on the head: "The old man's illness is not incurable, but rather your own mistake in administering the acupuncture has aggravated his condition."
"Bullshit! I've practiced medicine for fifty years and have never made a mistake!"
"Then you'll go this time."
Su Hao said, enunciating each word clearly, "Old Master Li has a long-standing, cold, and poisonous miasma in his body, which has been dormant for decades. It is usually hidden in his meridians and suppressed. This sudden backlash could have been addressed by using precise acupuncture to expel the toxins and stabilize his heart meridian."
"However, when you were applying the acupuncture just now, you misjudged the situation, misplaced the needle, and misplaced it at a key acupoint. The needle flowed in the opposite direction, which not only failed to suppress the accumulated cold toxins in the body, but also directly stimulated the miasma to flow wildly in the opposite direction."
"The poisonous gas rushed straight to his heart and lungs, completely blocking his life force, which caused the old man's heartbeat to weaken, his life force to cease, and him to fall into a coma and be on the verge of death, leaving him in this desperate situation where his life hangs by a thread."
Feng Yizhen was deeply shocked.
He recalled the process of administering acupuncture just now, and when he inserted the last needle, he did vaguely feel that the needle's movement was a bit off.
But he thought it was just his old age causing his hands to shake, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Now that Su Hao had said that, he realized that he had really made a mistake!
But having cultivated a deep reputation in the medical field of Nanjing for many years, how could I admit my mistake in front of a mere young man?
"I only diagnosed by taking the pulse, and there was no mistake."
"Since you insist that you are right, then let me ask you a question." Su Hao said calmly.
"Where did this chilling, poisonous miasma in Old Master Li's body come from?"
"This..." Feng Yizhen was speechless.
He really didn't know.
He only knew that Old Master Li had poison in his body, but he had no idea what kind of poison it was or where it came from.
"You don't know, because this is not an ordinary poison, but a Gu poison unique to the Miao region, called the Cold Silkworm Gu."
Su Hao stated bluntly, "Once this kind of Gu worm enters the human body, it will lurk deep in the meridians, slowly releasing cold air and eroding the internal organs. The symptoms are not obvious on ordinary days, but as long as it is strongly stimulated, the Gu worm will go berserk, the poison will flow backward, and it can cause death in a short time."
Feng Yizhen's expression changed drastically: "The Frost Silkworm Gu? Wasn't that a lost art long ago?"
"Lost in the art doesn't mean it doesn't exist." Su Hao looked at Old Master Li.
"Old Master Li must have offended someone to be cursed like this."
Li Dahai was completely confused: "What's the point of all this rambling? The old man's dead anyway, you can say whatever you want!"
"Who said he's dead?"
Su Hao gestured towards Feng Yizhen with his lip: "Old man, you don't have to admit you did something wrong, but you still have to seize the opportunity to make amends. You don't want others to know what happened today, do you?"
"I'm giving you a chance to save Old Master Li and protect your reputation."
Su Hao crossed his arms over his chest.
"Follow my command."
"For the first needle, insert it into the Tianshu acupoint, 1.3 inches deep, and rotate it clockwise three times."
Feng Yizhen hesitated for a moment, then did as instructed.
Unexpectedly, a miraculous scene unfolded.
Li Zhongguo, who was originally weak and almost had his heart stop beating, began to slowly rise and fall in his chest after the first needle was inserted.
"It really works!"
Feng Yizhen stared in disbelief, then asked Su Hao, "Young friend, what happens next?"
"The second needle, Guanyuan point, five fen deep, rotate counterclockwise two times."
"The third needle, Guanyuan point, two inches deep, rotate clockwise five times."
……
Su Hao named nine acupoints in a row, and Feng Yizhen performed them one by one.
As the ninth needle was inserted, he suddenly slapped Feng Yizhen on the shoulder.
Feng Yizhen felt a surge of powerful true energy flow into his shoulder, rushing down along the meridians of his arm, and entering Old Master Li's body through the silver needles!
That true energy was as hot as a dragon, domineering yet not violent, like a living golden dragon.
He had never felt such profound and pure internal energy before!
A moment later, a white worm emerged from Old Master Li's nose.
Su Hao stepped forward and casually crushed him to death.
The next second, Old Master Li opened his cloudy eyes.
His gaze was somewhat unfocused, but it quickly returned to clarity, and he spoke weakly.
"I...I'm still alive?"
"That's great, Grandpa! You're awake!" Li Qiuchan exclaimed with a mixture of joy and surprise.
The room erupted in uproar.
Everyone was stunned, staring at the scene in disbelief.
Feng Yizhen was utterly dumbfounded, muttering, "This...this actually cured him..."
"My medical skills are beyond question," Su Hao shrugged.
Feng Yizhen finally realized what a master Su Hao was, and said with shame, "Young friend, you are so young, yet you have such superb medical skills. I almost made a big mistake. I am truly ashamed."
"You actually have some skill, but you're just too old and don't know the origin of this disease, so it's normal to make mistakes." Su Hao brushed it off, giving Feng Yizhen some face.
Feng Yizhen thought Su Hao would kick him while he was down and use his reputation to climb the ladder, but to his surprise, Su Hao not only did not do so, but instead repaid kindness with ingratitude and helped him salvage his reputation.
For a time, he was completely convinced of Su Hao's medical ethics.
"For the old man to fully recover, he needs to take herbal decoctions to strengthen his body, dispel cold, and nourish his qi and blood. You should understand, right?"
"Please rest assured, young friend, I am most skilled at preparing herbal medicine."
Taking advantage of the situation, Feng Yizhen tried to redeem himself by immediately writing down a prescription.
At this moment, Li Zhongguo was able to get out of bed and walk slowly by supporting himself on the headboard. His energy and spirit were steadily recovering, and he had been completely pulled back from the brink of death.
Li Qiuchan threw herself into Li Zhongguo's arms: "Grandpa, you scared me to death! I thought you were really gone!"
"Silly girl, how could Grandpa bear to part with you?" Li Zhongguo said softly.
He knew that among all the members of the Li family, this granddaughter was the one who cared most about his health.
"Damn it, this bastard is so lucky, he actually stumbled upon a dead mouse by sheer luck..." Li Dahai gritted his teeth.
Zhang Meilan lowered her voice and said, "What do we do now?"
"No matter what, the old man is awake, we can't let this go on."
As Li Dahai spoke, he leaned forward and said insincerely, "Dad, I'm so glad you're alright. I was so worried about you!"
"Of course."
Li Zhongguo sneered.
"I survived, but I can't divide the inheritance anymore. How can you not be anxious?"
