Chapter 458 Replantation of Severed Tendons

Gu Feng stepped forward, reaching out to pull the back door.

The girl in the front driver's seat suddenly pushed open the car door, immediately blocked Gu Feng's path, and shouted with wide eyes, "You are not allowed to hurt my father!"

"Your father?" Gu Feng looked up at the fair-skinned and pretty girl.

She already possesses the bearing of a mature beauty, and her face does indeed bear some resemblance to Uncle Gui, making adoption almost entirely out of the question.

"My father has already suffered enough, please don't hurt him anymore." Although Song Rong'er said it was a plea, her eyes were so stubborn and wary, as if she would do the same to Gu Feng if Gu Feng dared to do anything to her father.

Gu Feng nodded. Uncle Gui is good, and his daughter is good too.

"Don't worry, I'm just looking at him," Gu Feng said gently, gesturing for her to move aside.

Song Rong'er didn't move aside, but instead opened the car door, leaned in, and helped Uncle Gui up, softly calling, "Dad, Dad, we've arrived."

Uncle Gui felt a cold wind blow, his body shivered, and he barely managed to lift his head.

When he saw Gu Feng, this menacing figure, standing right in front of him, his face was filled with terror, but he still managed to prop himself up and said, "I want to see Ding Lisheng."

"Why would you want to see him?" Gu Feng asked.

"I just want to see him." Uncle Gui didn't explain, he just insisted.

At this moment, Ding Lisheng arrived in his electric wheelchair.

He was also quite surprised to see Uncle Ghost.

"Ding Lisheng, you said your door is always open, is that still valid now?" Uncle Gui asked with difficulty.

Ding Lisheng paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Did I say that?"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Gui's face turned even paler. He gritted his teeth and said to his daughter, "Rong'er, let's go."

"Wait, wait a minute," Ding Lisheng quickly stopped him. "I was just joking. I did say that, but it was a long, long time ago, probably seven or eight years ago. I did say that to you when Mad Dog came in."

Uncle Gui's expression darkened. "What kind of time is this to be joking?" he thought. So he asked, "Does that statement still hold true now?"

"Of course, once words are spoken, they're like a daughter who's married off; there's no reason to take them back." Ding Lisheng became serious, but his tone was still far from flattering.

"Now that I'm here, do you still want it?" Uncle Gui asked, his tone incredibly desolate, like a lover who had changed their heart and returned to seek out their old flame.

"Let me think." Ding Lisheng tapped his head, but after only two seconds he said, "Well, it's a little late, but better late than never. Like I said, my door is always open for you, Uncle Gui."

"Phew—" Uncle Gui slowly let out a long breath.

Ding Lisheng was about to wave his hand to have someone carry Uncle Gui out of the car.

"Wait." Ding Hanhan shouted before she even went upstairs.

Everyone turned around and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Ding Hanhan stepped forward: "Uncle Gui, you are the strategist of the Huilong Society. My Yihe Gang and the Huilong Society are still mortal enemies. Why should I believe you are sincerely siding with us?"

Uncle Gui didn't answer, but instead looked at Ding Lisheng.

Ding Lisheng then came to his senses and looked at him apologetically, saying, "I'm sorry, Uncle Gui. Right now, whether it's the Yihe Gang or the Ding family, it's my daughter and son-in-law who are in charge. If you want to submit, you'll have to get past them first."

Uncle Gui smiled sadly upon hearing this: "With me looking like this, how could I possibly have any ulterior motives?"

"Who knows if you're just playing the victim?" Ding Hanhan asked coldly.

"Playing the victim's self-inflicted injury and ending up crippled, this self-inflicted injury is a bit too much of a tragedy." Uncle Gui gave a weak, bitter laugh.

"Uncle Ghost, if you were me, you would have done the same thing," Ding Hanhan said expressionlessly.

Uncle Gui hesitated for a moment, then finally gritted his teeth and said, "I've dedicated most of my life to the Huilong Society, and I never imagined I'd end up like this in my old age. Hong Sheng has been so cruel to me, not only crippling me, but if it weren't for a twist of fate, my daughter would have suffered at his hands as well. Fine, I didn't ask you to take me in for nothing. I brought Hong Sheng's freedom for the rest of his life with me."

"Oh, what do you mean?" Ding Hanhan's heart skipped a beat.

"I believe him." A voice rang out; it was Gu Feng. He waved to his left and right, "Saving lives is the priority. Everyone, quickly carry Uncle Gui inside. We can talk about everything else later."

Since Gu Feng had given the order, who would dare to disagree? The servants quickly rushed forward and carried Uncle Gui into the house.

As she entered the room, Ding Hanhan looked at Gu Feng with a hint of reproach.

Gu Feng glanced at her, then pulled her inside quickly, saying as they walked, "Don't blame me for interrupting you, but Uncle Gui's injuries are very serious, and if we delay any longer, his life will definitely be in danger. So let's save him first, and we can talk about everything else later."

"Is it that serious?" Ding Hanhan was taken aback.

"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, Uncle Gui's tendons in his hands and feet have all been severed."

"Huh?" Ding Hanhan exclaimed in surprise, covering her mouth.

As far as she knew, "hand tendon" and "foot tendon" were just common terms; medically, they were called tendons. The "foot tendon" refers to the Achilles tendon at the back of the foot, while the "hand tendon" refers to the two parts of the tendon in the wrist.

Since human movement is achieved through muscle contraction that drives skeletal movement, muscles are connected at one end to one side of a bone and at the other end to an adjacent bone.

In this way, muscle contraction can cause relative movement of the bones.

The tendon is the part that connects muscles to bones. If a tendon ruptures, it can no longer pull the bones to move.

The tendons in the wrist and the Achilles tendon in the foot are the most important tendon tissues.

If the limbs are severed, they cannot move, and the person is rendered useless. Although pain can still be felt and the muscles and blood vessels remain intact, the limbs, except for the torso, can no longer move.

This means that Uncle Gui has become a completely useless person.

The servants carried Uncle Ghost into a room.

Ding Lisheng and Old Man Ding both once stayed in this room.

When the patient is seriously ill, this place is equipped with all kinds of advanced medical equipment, as well as all the tools available in a regular operating room.

After removing the tattered cloths from Uncle Gui's hands and feet, Ding Hanhan saw that his Achilles tendon and the tendons in his hands had been completely severed. The cuts were clean and neat, clearly made by a sharp blade, and were still oozing blood, indicating that it hadn't been too long.

"Uncle Gui, who did this to you?" Ding Hanhan asked, looking at the dying Uncle Gui.

"Hong Sheng." Uncle Gui gritted his teeth, his face already pale from pain and blood loss.

Ding Hanhan was about to ask, "What's going on...?"

"Uncle Gui, if I'm not mistaken, Hong Sheng hurt you like this because he found out about Da Pao Chang's affairs, right?" Gu Feng asked.

"Yes, but not entirely. It's mainly because Hong Sheng is just too suspicious. I've followed him for most of my life, and I can't even get this basic level of trust. It really breaks my heart and makes me give up," Uncle Gui said with difficulty.

"Uncle Gui, no matter what, this whole thing started because of me, and I will do my best to cure you," Gu Feng said sincerely.

"Do your best. But I won't thank you." Uncle Gui turned his face away.

"I understand." Gu Feng nodded, and then quickly connected various monitoring devices to Uncle Gui. In a short while, Uncle Gui's vital signs appeared on the monitor.

Such an injury is clearly beyond the treatment capabilities of the ancient medical techniques that Gu Feng had previously learned; it requires the use of modern surgical tendon repair techniques.

Gu Feng had performed this kind of tendon repair on frogs before, and the surgery was completed perfectly; he had done it more than once. But this was the first time he was doing it on a human.

However, whether it was the first time or not isn't the key issue. The key issue is that Uncle Gui has lost too much blood, resulting in severely insufficient blood volume and extremely low blood pressure. If his blood volume isn't corrected, let alone surgery, even saving his life will be a problem.

This means that Uncle Gui must receive a blood transfusion immediately.

"Uncle Gui, what's your blood type?" Gu Feng quickly shook Uncle Gui, who was already somewhat delirious.

"Type A," Uncle Gui struggled to say before falling into a coma.

"Hanhan, hurry up and gather everyone in the family to see who has type A blood. Be quick, quick, understand?" Gu Feng said anxiously.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Ding Hanhan agreed and immediately went out.

Gu Feng quickly put Uncle Gui on an IV drip of anti-shock nutritional supplements and antibiotics. Although this couldn't solve the problem at its root, it could at least keep him going for a while.

This was Gu Feng's first time doing a purely nursing job like giving injections.

In a flurry of activity, I tried several times, but either I missed the vein or I punctured it...

Uncle Gui is truly a tragic figure. Even with his life hanging by a thread, he still gets used by Gu Feng to practice his skills.

In the end, Gu Feng had tied countless swollen bumps on the backs of both of Uncle Gui's hands, where the tendons had been completely severed.

Gu Feng then realized that he hadn't tied a tourniquet around Gui Shu's veins, which was why he couldn't get the tourniquet in no matter how hard he tried.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Gui." Gu Feng looked embarrassed and quickly apologized while applying a tourniquet to him.

He felt a little relieved when he saw that Uncle Gui had forgiven him in silence.

Actually, Uncle Gui was on the verge of death; he couldn't even get up to yell at him anymore...
