Urban Immortal Doctor

Lin Feng felt a wave of dizziness and then collapsed on the ground, unconscious!

"Xiao Lin, what's wrong with you?" Tan Jie rushed over and lifted Lin Feng onto bed ten, which was empty and without a patient.

"Doctor Lin, what's wrong with you?" Shen Mei asked anxiously, immediately hooking up the monitor to Lin Feng.

The vital signs were stable.

"Sister Shen, Doctor Lin is okay, right?" Li Lin asked timidly in a low voice.

"I'm not sure, he should be fine, right?" As Shen Mei spoke, her eyes were on Tan Jie.

"He must be tired from the acupuncture just now! Xiao Shen, give Lin Feng some fluids first and let's observe him," Tan Jie suggested, his understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine was limited; he only knew that performing acupuncture was both mentally and physically draining.

"Okay, Director Tan!" Shen Mei responded, quickly fetched the IV supplies, and efficiently set up a 5% glucose solution for Lin Feng.

Tan Jie relaxed a bit when he saw that the vital signs on Lin Feng's monitor were steady and turned to look at bed nine.

He noticed that the blood pressure on bed nine was gradually rising, the heart rate was also slowly recovering, and the fluid coming out of the drainage tube wasn't as bright red as before.

"Could the bleeding have stopped?" Tan Jie couldn't help but think, then glanced at Lin Feng who was still unconscious.

At that moment, a doctor operating the ultrasound machine hurried over.

"Director Tan, who's got the abdominal bleeding?" The ultrasound doctor was quite familiar with Tan Jie and asked immediately.

"Oh, it's Doctor He. For bed nine..." Tan Jie briefly explained the patient's condition to Doctor He.

"Okay! I'll take a look!" Doctor He connected the ultrasound instrument, and then started scanning the patient's abdomen with the probe.

"What's wrong with Doctor Lin?" Doctor He suddenly noticed Lin Feng lying on bed ten and asked while operating the machine.

"Nothing serious, he just got a bit weak from performing acupuncture on a patient. He'll be fine after some rest."

Doctor He nodded and shifted his attention back to the ultrasound screen.

"Hmm?" Doctor He revealed a hint of confusion after scanning for a moment.

"What is it, Doctor He? Did you find anything?" Tan Jie asked quickly, noticing his reaction.

"Director Tan, this patient isn't bleeding anymore! There's no fluid in the abdominal cavity at all! Could the bloody fluid that was drained through the drainage tube have been from previous acumulation in the abdominal cavity? The blood clot might have blocked the end of the drainage tube, and after the patient was turned, the clot came out, letting the accumulated fluid drain away?" Doctor He shared his thoughts.

Tan Jie shook his head, "Impossible, if it were the original fluid in the abdominal cavity, the hemoglobin levels wouldn't drop so quickly, and there wouldn't be such significant changes in blood pressure and heart rate! Since there's no fluid in the cavity now, the only possibility is that the bleeding has stopped!"

"Stopped? How could that be? According to what you just said, the bleeding was definitely from a vessel! How can a ruptured blood vessel stop bleeding on its own?" Doctor He showed a face full of disbelief, and had it been anyone else besides Tan Jie who had said this, Doctor He would have dismissed it outright.

"It was Xiao Lin who stopped the bleeding with acupuncture technique," Tan Jie pointed at Lin Feng, who was lying on the bed.

"Acupuncture? Can acupuncture stop bleeding?" Doctor He's mouth dropped open in disbelief.

Tan Jie nodded, "Not just you, even I couldn't believe it at first! But it's true! Xiao Lin, using Traditional Chinese Medicine's acupuncture, has successfully stopped the bleeding!"

Doctor He's face remained shocked. It was too miraculous! Acupuncture could actually stop severe bleeding? Doctor He refused to believe it, so he waited in the ward, wanting to see if the patient's bleeding was completely stopped or if it was temporarily halted by a blood clot blocking the vessel.

Tan Jie didn't interfere, instead giving a series of instructions to the nurses. By then, the blood from the transfusion department was ready and had already been retrieved to be transfused into the patient.

Under a series of treatments including blood transfusion, rehydration, shock treatment, and hemostasis, the patient's vital signs gradually stabilized, and their complexion started to show a healthy flush.

Doctor He couldn't believe it and performed another ultrasound, which revealed that the patient's abdominal bleeding had indeed stopped!

This discovery greatly shocked Doctor He's heart!

At that moment, Lin Feng finally began to regain consciousness!

"Xiao Lin, how are you feeling? Are you alright?" Tan Jie immediately approached and asked.

Shen Mei also came over, her eyes brimming with concern as she looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng managed a wry smile, shaking his head weakly, "I'm fine. I'm just very tired. I'll be alright after some rest."

Tan Jie nodded, "Alright, you rest well! I have good news for you, bed nine's bleeding has stopped! It's thanks to you! Later, I'll report this to the director, so you can be properly rewarded!"

Turning to Shen Mei, Tan Jie said, "Xiao Shen, please move Xiao Lin to a private room to rest. You'll be in charge of looking after him tonight."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mei nodded, a strange feeling suddenly washing over her.

"Dude, you're incredibly skilled!" Out of nowhere, Doctor He came up to Lin Feng and blurted this out!

Lin Feng was instantly at a loss for words!

"In less than a day, dude, your heroic deeds will spread throughout the entire Second Hospital! No, not just here but also to the other hospitals in Quancheng! Trust me, I've got this covered! Rest up!" Doctor He guaranteed, patting his chest, and then left with the ultrasound machine.

"Doctor Lin, do you feel better now?" Shen Mei wheeled Lin Feng into a private room and asked.

"I'm fine. I just need some rest. Shen Mei, you go ahead with your work," Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Oh, okay then!" Unable to hide a touch of disappointment, Shen Mei thought to herself, "What's happening to me?" She then turned and left, gently closing the door behind her.

As soon as Shen Mei left, Lin Feng immediately began communicating with Qi Luyi.

"Old liar, what did you just do to me? Why did I suddenly lose all my strength? Speak up, or else I'll throw you into the trash heap by the door!"

"Why the rush, young man?" Qi Luyi answered without any urgency: "Do you think reverse acupuncture flow is what? Shopping for clothes? Something you can learn just by wanting to? Not even a newcomer like you, but even an old hand from a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine, to perform the acupuncture I did just now, would need at least three to five years of learning! What makes you think you were able to accomplish it?"

"Are you saying?" Lin Feng already had a hunch in his heart.

"That's right! Seems like you're not entirely clueless!" Qi Luyi said confidently, "What I did earlier was use a secret technique to harness all your potential and essence to complete the acupuncture! However, the consequence of doing so is that you'll feel weak all over and unable to do anything after finishing the acupuncture session."

"And what about that profound feeling I had during the acupuncture? Was that also created by your secret technique?" When Lin Feng had been performing the acupuncture technique earlier, it felt entirely self-directed, which was completely different from the experience on Panshan Road.

"You could think of it that way," Qi Luyi declared confidently. "I've enhanced all your potential with the secret technique, so you were indeed feeling your own true sensations during the acupuncture. When you've fully mastered the reverse acupuncture flow, that feeling will come naturally."

"But you, a young man, are not very resilient. I just used the secret technique once, and you passed out! Ah, you're physically too weak!"

"Damn it!" Lin Feng really wanted to curse the old swindler thoroughly.

"Huh? That's not right! Your body?!" Qi Luyi suddenly exclaimed, then blurted out in disbelief, "You actually possess the Taiyin Physique!"
