Chapter 46 Treating Illness with Qi
The discussions made the nanny wary of Zachary. She nodded to Leslie, "Dr. Chao, please cure Miss Tang. The Tang family will definitely reward you generously."
"Reward?" Upon hearing this, Leslie's eyes lit up. He rolled up his sleeves and was fully motivated to treat Miss Tang.
He pushed Zachary aside and lifted the little girl's chin. Then, he took out two sheets of tissue paper and squeezed them into her nostrils.
He did not forget to show off at the same time. "Raising the head can help to avoid excessive blood loss. Stuffing the nostrils can speed up the healing process of the capillaries in the nose. This is just a minor illness, I could already solve it easily when I was still a student. Don't worry."
However, Leslie's expression grew tense a couple of minutes later. The tissue papers that he had stuffed into the little girl's nostrils were soaked with blood. Bright red blood was still oozing out of her nostrils. It was obvious that the nosebleed was not stopped.
"How could this be? The nosebleed should stop now no matter how serious it is," Leslie was confused.
As the little girl's face paled further, Zachary couldn't stand it anymore. He shouted, "This is not a simple nosebleed. She needs to receive treatment immediately, or she will suffer serious consequences." "You are just a Chinese physician selling some sh*tty paste. What do you know!" Leslie growled at Zachary contemptuously. He was ready to put a few more pieces of tissue paper into her nostrils.
The little girl's face was as pale as a paper at this moment. Blood started flowing out from the corner of her eyes as well.
"Miss Tang!" The nanny screamed in panic.
Leslie's heart skipped a beat. He didn't know what to do at all. "How could this be? It's impossible!"
"Get out of my way now!" Seeing that the situation was critical, Zachary pushed Leslie aside and removed the tissue papers in the little girl's nostrils. Then, he took out the silver needles and stabbed the little girl's face swiftly.
The silver needles were still spinning after being stabbed into the skin. Concurrently, an intermittent red line gradually appeared on the little girl's face. This technique was known as Firstie Spike from the Miraculous Nine Spikes. After performing the acupuncture, the little girl's nosebleed stopped immediately. However, Zachary still looked worried. He knew that the root of the illness had not been cured yet.
It seemed to be just an ordinary nosebleed, but its real cause was from her brain. There seemed to be a blood tumor in her brain. The nosebleed was caused by the blood tumor suppressing other blood vessels.
The blood vessels would rupture if the treatment was delayed for a prolonged period of time. As a result, there would be serious intracranial bleeding and the blood would ooze out from the orifices of the body. The blood flowing out of the corner of her eye was already a sign of intracranial hemorrhage.
Zachary had sealed the ruptured blood vessels temporarily with Firstie Spike. The suppression of the blood vessels by the blood tumor had to be resolved. Otherwise, more blood vessels would rupture and the situation would become critical. However, it was not easy to pinpoint the position of the blood tumor in the brain. Even Zachary could not do it at the moment.
He frowned and tightened the muscle on his right hand, conjuring his strength. After that, blue veins on his forehead protruded like earthworms. His face turned red and layers of steam transpired from his body.
Zachary moved his right hand and touched the little girl's forehead, rubbing it gently. The Qi which could not be seen by naked eyes flowed along his vein and penetrated into the little girl's head. The blood tumor was being moved slowly.
The Qi was originating from Zachary's body. Energy acupuncture was required to perform Miraculous Nine Spikes. However, the Qi transferred from the acupuncture to the patient was very little. The amount of Qi penetrated into the patient's body using his current method would be much greater.

Fortunately, Zachary had begun to cultivate Shannon Herbal Skill and had absorbed the aura of many plants. Otherwise, he couldn't move the blood tumor at all.
His forehead was covered with a layer of sweat as the Qi was transferred from his body to the little girl's body. He withdrew his hand after 15 minutes. Then, he pulled out the silver needles on the little girl's face.
After that, Zachary told the nanny, "The girl is not just having a normal nosebleed. There is a blood tumor in her brain. I have already dealt with it temporarily. There will be no problem in the next two weeks. But, you have to tell her parents about her condition and they must bring her to the hospital to receive further treatment. You can give me a call if there is any problem."
Zachary handed a business card to the nanny while he was speaking. As he was a boss now, Lauren had prepared a set of business cards for him.
"Thank you, miracle doctor!" The nanny picked the little girl up and thanked Zachary repeatedly.
The little girl in her arms woke up. She opened her eyes weakly and said, "Thank you!"
"Be a good girl and don't carry out any vigorous activities anymore," Zachary reminded her.
The crowd were pointing fingers at Leslie and discussing what had just happened. Their attitudes were different now. Most of them praised Zachary and Chinese medicine. Those who had just despised Chinese medicine were silent. As for Leslie, he was being targeted by the crowd.
"How dare he tell us that he's the chief of a hospital. I thought his medical skills would be excellent! All he did was just stuffing a few pieces of tissue paper. He doesn't deserve the title at all."
"All the big hospitals now are of poor quality. The medical skills of the doctors there are not very good, but they are good at earning money."
"He even dares to say that Chinese medicine is a voodoo. I think he is the fool here. How could he forget about the knowledge passed down by our ancestors after learning the Western medical skills?"
...
Leslie's face was red with humiliation, but he still huffed, "I'm not good? This guy just stabbed the little girl with a few needles and rubbed her forehead a few times! I'll say he is talking nonsense about some blood tumors to get their money!" The crowd booed him again as soon as he finished his words.
"He stopped the bleeding with just a few needles!"
"That's right. Look at yourself, you didn't do anything for that girl. You even delayed her treatment. You'll be responsible if she died!"
...
Leslie was too ashamed to stay in the midst of curses. He turned around and left in disgrace.
Zachary was surrounded by a group of excited people. Many of them even asked him to treat them on the spot. However, there were too many people there. Zachary could only take out a stack of business cards and distribute them to everyone who needed treatment so that they could find him later.
Finally, the crowd dispersed. Zachary felt a little weak. He had just started his cultivation with the Shannon Herbal Skill, so he did not have much Qi in his body yet. All of his Qi had been consumed when he was treating the little girl.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
