NOVEL NEXT Chapter 21 National Physician Wushuang
Tan Long saw Steward Liu's anxious expression and knew that the situation inside must be as serious as Wang Ye had previously described.
If that was the case, it really would provide Wang Ye with an excellent opportunity to showcase his medical skills.
So, Tan Long quickly thought things through in his mind, then approached Steward Liu and said, "Steward Liu, what does the Fang family mean by this? First, you throw people out, and now you want to invite them back in? Even if the Fang family is powerful, you can't just manipulate people like this! Our Divine Doctor is not someone to be trifled with."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Tan is right! It was indeed our fault just now, I hope you can speak with Doctor Wang. Saving a life is what matters! As long as you save the patriarch, everything else is negotiable, everything is negotiable," Steward Liu, who initially didn't take Tan Long seriously, could now only speak courteously.
"Saving a life? Our Divine Doctor has said it, that Doctor Max is not trustworthy, yet you insisted on believing him! Now, what's done is done! If you had let our Divine Doctor take action earlier, treating the patriarch's illness would've been as easy as pinching it off. But now, I'm afraid even our Divine Doctor might not be sure."
"This... Mr. Tan, it's a critical moment now, let's not talk about this! Whether Doctor Wang can cure him or not, let's go in and have a look first! Even if he cannot cure him, the Fang family won't let Doctor Wang down."
Hearing Steward Liu say this, Tan Long felt reassured. Going in now, regardless of the outcome, they would benefit.
"Divine Doctor, since Steward Liu has spoken to this extent, why don't you step forward and take a look? The heart of a healer is benevolent; we can't just stand by and watch someone die, right?" Tan Long whispered to Wang Ye.
Wang Ye heard these words and nodded, "Then, let's have a look!"
"That's right, Doctor Wang, please come inside, please come inside," Steward Liu quickly led the way.
The three people hastened into the Fang Family's household, and only after arriving at Patriarch Fang's room did Wang Ye see the patriarch's condition.
At this moment, Patriarch Fang was already halfway to the grave.
His legs had turned black, his entire face was purple, and he was barely clinging to his last breath.
And the rest of the Fang family all wore solemn expressions.
"This is difficult!"
Wang Ye stepped forward to take the patriarch's pulse before shaking his head.
"Divine Doctor, please do your best," Fang Feifei said softly.
Fang Feifei had already lost hope given the patriarch's condition. She was even thinking about how to manage the aftermath, for if the patriarch were to truly pass away, the situation in the Fang family would change.
"Prepare a small room immediately, preferably one without windows. Then, move the patriarch into it."
At this point, Wang Ye had no choice but to try his best. Whether he could succeed would depend on fate.
"Alright, Doctor Wang, I'll go prepare right now."
Steward Liu hurriedly agreed and was about to prepare.
But Fang Junxiang stopped Steward Liu, "Wait! Why should we trust this kid?"
"Great Uncle, the situation is dire. The only hope for Grandfather's illness lies in him!" Fang Feifei understood why Fang Junxiang was acting this way.
Even when she was overseas, Fang Feifei had heard that Patriarch Fang's illness had a lot to do with Fang Junxiang.
If it wasn't because of Fang Junxiang, the patriarch's illness would have been cured long ago.
If that were the case, Fang Feifei wouldn't have had to rush back herself.
"Rely on him? Feifei, you don't really think this kid can cure the patriarch, do you?" Fang Junxiang looked at Wang Ye with disdain.
Wang Ye and Fang Junxiang exchanged glances, then Wang Ye said indifferently, "If we delay any further, not even immortals will be able to save the patriarch."
Hearing this, Fang Feifei quickly said to Steward Liu, "Steward Liu, go and prepare."
"Yes, Miss Fang," Steward Liu knew that doing so would displease Fang Junxiang.
But with Fang Feifei's support, he could take a gamble.
"Miss Fang, even my special medicine can't cure the old master's illness. That means, Patriarch Fang's condition is no longer reversible. If I, practicing Western medicine, can't cure it, how could a country bumpkin possibly manage?" Doctor Max said, questioning Fang Feifei's belief in Wang Ye.
Upon hearing this, Wang Ye's brows furrowed slightly, "Doctor Max, Western medicine indeed has its strengths in treating patients, but traditional Chinese medicine is certainly not inferior to Western medicine."
"Ha, what traditional Chinese medicine? It's nothing but a scam! If it were truly useful, then why would you need to build so many hospitals? In the end, don't you still rely on Western medicine?" Max looked down on Wang Ye with contempt.
"Is that so? Then why can't you cure the old master's illness?" Wang Ye retorted.
"That's because Patriarch Fang's condition is beyond saving!" Max asserted confidently.
"Who told you it's beyond saving? As long as Divine Doctor Wang steps in, Patriarch Fang's illness will surely be cured! Just you watch, Divine Doctor Wang will show you the power of traditional Chinese medicine!" Tan Long interjected before Wang Ye could reply.
Max's disdain for Wang Ye was so much that even Tan Long couldn't stand it.
"The room is ready!"
At this moment, Steward Liu hurried back and announced.
"Quickly move Patriarch Fang over!" Wang Ye didn't bother to argue with Max any further.
After all, the facts would eventually make Max realize the strength of traditional Chinese medicine.
The crowd, bustling and hustling, carried Patriarch Fang to a small compartment on the second floor of the villa.
This room, with only one door and no windows, was originally just a storeroom. Now, it had been cleared out to make room for a single folding bed.
After Patriarch Fang was laid on the folding bed, the Fang family members stepped out.
Wang Ye took the medicine box from Tan Long's hands and was about to close the door to begin treatment.
But before he could close it, Fang Feifei stood in front of him and said, "Divine Doctor, you must save my grandfather."
Wang Ye and Fang Feifei exchanged glances, and suddenly, he felt a strange sensation. It was as if he had some familiarity with this woman.
However, Wang Ye had lived in the mountains since he was young; how could he possibly be familiar with Fang Feifei?
"I'll do my best!"
Wang Ye responded, then promptly closed the door.
At this moment, Patriarch Fang was already hovering at Ghost Gate Pass.
After taking his pulse again, Wang Ye had a clear understanding.
Patriarch Fang's condition was originally just stagnation of the meridians and insufficiency of qi and blood, with some blockage in his blood vessels.
But after Max injected him with the special medicine, it caused his blood flow to accelerate, which led to an increase in his whole body's blood pressure.
During the stagnation of the meridians, the increase in blood pressure made the already poor blood circulation even worse.
That's what led to Patriarch Fang's current condition.
Wang Ye knew that the most critical thing now was to unblock Patriarch Fang's blood vessels.
With that thought, Wang Ye immediately took out silver needles. Using acupuncture techniques, he accurately inserted sixty-eight silver needles into fifty-two specific points of meridian blockage on Patriarch Fang's body.
Instantly, Patriarch Fang's symptoms were alleviated.
