Chapter 268 Treating the Dying Person
Chapter 268 Treating the Dying Person
"Then you can check the patient's palms and the back of his neck," Su Chen said.
After hearing Su Chen's words, the other members of the Lin Family were all puzzled, not understanding what Su Chen really meant.
However, Xu Bo seemed to think of something, his body suddenly shook, and then he quickly tilted the old master Lin's head slightly.
When he saw something resembling a green speckled mark on the back of the neck, his pupils shrank sharply.
Then he hurriedly ran to the back and looked at the sole of old master Lin's foot.
"This, this...?"
Xu Bo pointed at old master Lin, somewhat inarticulately.
"Dr. Xu, what exactly is it?"
Lin Wenting's heart also trembled, asking anxiously.
"It really is... really is—poisoned!"
Xu Bo muttered, his expression filled with shock!
He had just remembered that people poisoned with Speckled Ball Poison's most distinctive feature was akin to green speckled marks on the soles of the feet and the back of the neck.
He couldn't help but look towards Su Chen; who exactly was this young man?
How could he spot the poisoning at a glance, and even know exactly what poison it was?
And the members of the Lin Family were instantly astir!
They had never expected that the old master would actually be poisoned!
Of course, they were also curious about how Su Chen knew this, but they didn't have time to ponder that right now.
Because what they were thinking about was, how did the old master get poisoned? Who could have poisoned him?
The old master was basically at home every day, rarely going out, so the most likely culprit would naturally be someone within the household, but who could it be?
Each person couldn't help but take a glance at the people around them, speculating who it could be, but this matter was just too serious, and nobody dared to speak recklessly!
This was murder, and what's more, the murder of the old master!
In fact, Lin Wenlong and his son had both trembled slightly when Su Chen first revealed that the old master was poisoned.
But since everyone's gaze and thoughts were on the old master at that time, who would notice this?
"But the person is already dead, even if we know it was caused by poison, it's useless!"
Xu Bo couldn't help saying, his attitude not as arrogant as before.
"Dead?"
Su Chen curled his lip, saying with full confidence,
"Today I will let you witness what is called 'resurrecting the dead'!"
Seeing that three of the patriarch's four children had given their consent, the other branches of the family also agreed to let Su Chen give it a try.
Although they still thought there was little hope, they obviously did not wish for the patriarch to die.
"Chao, let little Su have a try. Even though death is significant, we mustn't give up as long as there is a sliver of possibility," Lin Wenlong spoke at this point, and then looked at Su Chen and added,
"Su Chen, it's all on you now."
"I won't disappoint you."
Su Chen said with an implication.
Seeing that the Lin Family had all agreed, the doctors couldn't say much more, even though they thought it was a pointless endeavor.
A person already confirmed dead, what was there to save?
"Since that's the case, you all should leave now."
Su Chen waved his hand and said.
"Alright, everyone, let's go out and allow Su Chen to work in peace."
Lin Wenting cooperated in ushering everyone out.
"Mr. Su, may I stay and observe?"
Though Xu Bo trusted his judgment, he began to waver slightly, recalling how this young man instantly recognized the poison that the elder had suffered from.
Su Chen glanced at him and then nodded:
"Then, you can assist me."
"Thank you very much."
Xu Bo actually wanted to see what this young man was basing his ability to cure death upon!
Now, only Su Chen and Xu Bo were left in the operating room. Su Chen's expression became extremely serious instantly, a stark change from his previous demeanor, and even Xu Bo couldn't help but marvel.
Su Chen, however, paid no mind to Xu Bo's thoughts. He took the two Silver Needles that he had been holding between his fingers and thrust them into the patriarch's heart area.
He then gently twisted the needles, and soon, a strange phenomenon occurred!
One could see that fresh blood began to ooze slowly from the edges of the two needles, mixed with a very faint black color, clearly indicating poisoned blood.
"Eh, when I operated on the old man, how come I didn't notice any blackness in the blood?"
Xu Bo asked in surprise, thinking that if he had seen this scene earlier, he would have guessed poison right away.
But the fact was, he had operated for several hours, and the patient had bled a lot, but it was all bright red.
Su Chen did not answer him because even if he did, the other party surely would not understand.
The ancient art of Chinese medicine can hardly be explained in a word or two, and right now, Su Chen had neither the interest nor the time to give the other party a lesson.
Because if Su Chen didn't act, it was fine, but once he started, he absolutely couldn't stop, otherwise the patriarch would really be gone... Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire
