Chapter 39 Acupuncture

"Doctor Zhang, how is my grandpa?" The group of people looked at Doctor Zhang nervously.

Dr. Zhang was an authoritative medical master, renowned worldwide. He had been a good friend of Mo Changfeng for many years. From last night until now, he had done various tests and treatments for Mo Changfeng. However, his good friend still remained unconscious. He was as worried as the family members waiting outside. In this circumstance, the chance of recovery was very slim. Looking at his friend's beloved grandchildren, Doctor Zhang found it a bit difficult to tell them that Mo Changfeng was not awake.

"Doctor Zhang, please say something! Is my grandpa..." Mo Aili couldn't say the word “gone”. She broke down and cried uncontrollably.

"No. His breath is normal, but... He didn’t wake up..." After speaking, Doctor Zhang also shook a little. In fact, he could draw the conclusion that Mo Changfeng was basically a vegetable. Although Mo Changfeng was not dead, he could not regain consciousness anymore…

The breath was normal? So Grandpa Mo was still alive! Good news! Hearing that, Mo Aili eased her crying, "So when can my grandpa wake up?"

Doctor Zhang looked at the other side. He did not dare to look at Mo Aili's hopeful gaze, "I don't know. Maybe he can recover consciousness in a day or in a year. Or maybe he will remain insensible forever…"

What was the meaning? So it meant that Mo Changfeng had become a vegetable!

Hearing the words, all of the people present got nothing to say. The atmosphere was so solemn that Doctor Zhang could bear it no more and left.

Mo Aili couldn't hold back her tears anymore. She cried loudly.

Mo Liufeng also leaned against the wall, seeming to have lost his support. He covered his face with his palms. There was no sound from him, but tears could be seen flowing from between his fingers...

Murong Xue and Mo Ziwen also couldn't help feeling sorrow. Their eyes were red.

After a while, Murong Xue, who had calm down, began to recall all the medical techniques she had learned in the space. Among them, there was the Nine Turns Phoenix Stitch, which could be used to rejuvenate someone who was still alive but unconscious by stimulating the heart and pulse. For the one who inherited the method, there was an 80% of the possibility to cure the case.

Maybe she could give it a try. She had practiced it in space for decades in order to cure Zilin's disease. She was already very familiar with the Nine Turns Phoenix Stitch.

It was just that she didn't know how to make Mo Liufeng and Mo Aili believe her.

Anyway, there was no time to delay. Murong Xue had to speak directly, "Mo Liufeng, I have a Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion method. Maybe it can treat your grandpa? Could you let me try...?"

Mo Liufeng said hoarsely with red eyes, "Xue, thank you for your kindness. You don't need to be like this..." He thought that Murong Xue was merely comforting them. If the Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion method was really useful, it was impossible for Doctor Zhang not to give it a try. Doctor Zhang must have tried various methods before saying that just now.

Seeing that Mo Liufeng didn’t believe her, Murong Xue said eagerly, "Mo Liufeng, I'm not joking. I really know the Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion method. Although I am not 100% sure, I am at least 80% confident with the method. Mo Liufeng, please trust me! You also want to see your grandpa get well, don’t you?"

Mo Liufeng was in a bad mood. He could not think about Murong Xue's words carefully at this moment, "Of course, I hope my grandpa can get better, but..."

Mo Ziwen had witnessed Murong Xue’s medical skills, so he interrupted Mo Liufeng’s words, "Liufeng, I can guarantee Xue’s acupuncture and moxibustion skills. You know that my brother has a congenital heart disease, which has failed to be cured at many hospitals. Now Xue is responsible for treating my brother. He has recovered a lot from treatment."

Mo Aili, who was squatting on the ground and crying, remembered the bottle of water Murong Xue once gave her. At that time, Murong Xue joked that this was called smart water and that Mo Aili could become smarter simply by drinking it. Mo Aili also thought it was Murong Xue’s joke.

However, to Mo Aili’s surprise, after she drank it, she found that she not only was fitter and more beautiful, but she also improved a lot in memory. It was until then that she realized that the water Murong Xue gave her was unusual. So she was even more touched by Murong Xue’s trust in her. After that, she did not ask where the water came from, nor did she mention it to others. She would not like to bring trouble to Murong Xue. She didn't even talk about it with her grandpa and brother.

Mo Aili suddenly jumped and ran to her brother, "Brother, I believe Xue. Please let her try!" Mo Aili’s eyes were lit again with hope. Maybe Xue could cure her grandpa!

Seeing the two people's utmost assurance of Murong Xue's medical skills, Mo Liufeng couldn't help but start to vacillate. Could it be that Murong Xue was a medical genius?

Finally, Mo Liufeng, who had been thinking for a long time, nodded in agreement. But he also made a request that Doctor Zhang must be present during the treatment.

Murong Xue was fine with it as long as Doctor Zhang wouldn’t bother her.

At first, when Dr. Zhang heard the decision, he shouted in anger, "Tomfoolery!"

He only agreed reluctantly after several people's constant pledges and pleadings.

In the afternoon, Dr. Zhang had driven away a bunch of unrelated people in Mo Changfeng's ward. He then arranged a few bodyguards at the door of the ward to prevent others from entering.

Murong Xue saw Mo Changfeng lying on the hospital bed with flecks of grey hair. Even though Mo Changfeng’s eyes were closed, he still revealed the aura of a superior person. His face was pale and bloodless. If it weren't for his faint breath...

She gently felt Mo Changfeng's pulse, only to find that the situation was terrible with the weak pulse. The acupuncture must be performed immediately. If it was done later, even she could do nothing about it then.

Murong Xue whispered to Mo Liufeng to untie Mo Changfeng's clothes on his upper body so that she could manipulate the needle.

After Mo Changfeng's clothes were untied, Murong Xue drew out 4 needles without hesitation. She pierced them into the Danzhong point, which was on the midline of Mo Changfeng’s front body, the Jiuwei point, which was about 23 centimeters above the belly button, the Juque point, which was about 20 centimeters above the belly button on the midline of the front body, and the Qihai point, which was about 5 centimeters below the belly button.

The four needles had penetrated the body for 70% of their lengths. Then Murong Xue flicked the needles to stimulate the potential vitality of Mo Changfeng's body.

Dr. Zhang was shocked at the sight. An expert as he was, he could understand the workings simply by observation. The way Murong Xue implied her acupuncture technique was so proficient, elegant, and calm. Also, after the acupuncture, it was obvious that Mo Changfeng's face had been a little ruddier. How amazing Murong Xue’s acupuncture technique was! Only then did he believe that this young girl really had extraordinary acupuncture skills.

The other three also held their breath while watching for fear that they would disturb Murong Xue's treatment.

Murong Xue was preoccupied with the treatment, oblivious to everything around her. Over ten minutes had passed, and Murong Xue was already sweating profusely. The sweat soaked through her coat, making it cling to her back.

After Murong Xue took a few more stitches, Mo Changfeng's face quickly became rosy at a visible speed, and his breath had also become much longer!

The onlookers were totally amazed. They praised repeatedly, and the hope in their eyes was even greater.

If it weren't for worrying about disturbing Murong Xue, Mo Aili would pounce on Xue and kiss her fiercely.

Murong Xue took the last stitch in a quiet solemn look.

At this moment, Mo Changfeng's fingers moved lightly. His eyelids trembled slightly. After a while, he opened his eyes.

After a while, Mo Changfeng asked energetically, "Why are you all around me? Where am I? Huh? Girl, who has bullied you? Your eyes are red from crying."

Mo Aili was so happy that she burst into tears when seeing her grandpa waked, "Grandpa, you’ve scared me to death! You fainted yesterday... Oh..."

"Silly girl. I’m in good health. Now I am awake." After comforting Mo Aili, Mo Changfeng looked at a few people in the room. Then he said to Doctor Zhang, "Zhang, thank you for saving my life this time!"

Doctor Zhang wiped the tears at the corner of his eyes and pointed to Murong Xue, who was sitting aside and resting. And he said, "It's not me this time. You should thank this little girl. It’s she who has saved you."

Mo Changfeng was shocked to see that the one who saved his life was a little girl only about 19 years old. Although Murong Xue was outstanding in appearance and had a good temperament, Mo Changfeng still couldn't link her to her identity as a doctor. Despite the surprise Mo Changfeng had felt, he remained calm and collected, "I’m sorry, little girl. I didn’t see you just now. Thank you for saving my life. I will repay you on the other day."

Murong Xue was also relieved when she saw Mo Changfeng regain consciousness. Although she was 80% sure of the success, it was the first time that she imposed acupuncture on a real person. Usually, she practiced the technique on a dummy in space.

She stood up and smiled a little, "If you don’t mind, I will call you Grandpa Mo. Grandpa Mo, you are welcome. Aili and I are good friends. Her business is my business. Besides, Aili and her brother really care for me very often. Grandpa Mo, if you want to thank me, then I don’t know how to express my gratitude to Aili."

Mo Aili opened her eyes wide, "Nonsense! It’s you who usually take care of me. You are standing the facts on their heads!"

When Murong Xue was talking with the others, Mo Changfeng observed her carefully. He was very satisfied. It turned out that his granddaughter had made a good friend. Murong Xue was not arrogant or irritable. She was humble and polite. She was very demeanor in every move. Mo Changfeng had appreciated Murong Xue in his heart countless times.

There was a burst of laughter in the ward because of Mo Changfeng's awakening.

It had been a long time before Murong Xue bid farewell to them. Originally, Mo Liufeng would like to invite her to dinner, but Murong Xue saw that he looked too tired, so she promised to have dinner with him another day and asked him to spend more time for rest.

Hearing that Murong Xue cared about him so much, Mo Liufeng's eyes were bright at the time. A hint of hope was ignited in his heart. Maybe he was not the only one being passionate in the relationship…

Mo Ziwen kept escorting Murong Xue back to the room, but he didn’t say much on the way. Murong Xue didn't feel strange either. Mo Ziwen was not fond of talking. Maybe he was tired today.

After Murong Xue returned to her room, she locked the door and entered the space. Her medical department was about to run soon, so she had to develop some medicines. Therefore, she went into the space to concentrate on the development of medicines.

As soon as Mo Ziwen returned to the room, he sat on the sofa, absorbed in meditation. Today, he had seen Murong Xue's different side again. Murong Xue was getting better and better. However, he couldn't even protect her. He felt that he was becoming more and more useless. How could he stand behind her? He began to seriously think about how to build his own power because he was afraid that once again when encountering opponents like Shangguan Mo, there might be no backing for him to protect Murong Xue.

Shangguan Mo had planned to have dinner with Murong Xue today. However, his people reported that she was in the hospital. Before he finished hearing the report, he thought it was Murong Xue who had an accident. He almost ran over before the report was over. Then he learned that it was Mo Changfeng who had fainted.
