Chapter 456: Starting the Treatment
When he entered the room, Lin Yuan was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face. Her lifeless eyes were staring at the ceiling expressionlessly.
There was a thermostat on the cabinet beside the bed. Lin Yuan’s hands were soaked in a special liquid in the box. Her hands, which had lost their circulation, were slightly pale from the medicine and there was no longer any color of blood.
After being brought to Lin Yuan’s room by the Kang family’s servant, Mo Jiu picked up the translucent box on the cabinet and quietly observed it for a few minutes. Then, he frowned slightly and turned to look at Cheng Tang, who had followed him in. He said in a low voice, “Ms. Cheng, this lady’s hand has been delayed for too long. It won’t be easy to treat it. I’m afraid the price we agreed on previously will have to be changed!”
Upon hearing Mo Jiu’s words, Kang Ting’s expression darkened. He walked in with a cold expression and scolded unhappily, “Mo Jiu, don’t push your luck. The price I’m offering you is already dozens of times the market price. Isn’t this amount of money enough to buy a pair of hands?”
Mo Jiu raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to knock lightly on the box beside him. He said coldly, “That’s the price I offered before I came to the Kang family to take a look at the situation. Now that I’m here, it’s indeed very difficult for your wife to reconnect her hand perfectly. According to the original price, I can’t cure her.”
After pausing for a few seconds, seeing that the Kang family’s expression was grave as if they were about to flare up, Mo Jiu touched his chin and added, “Master Kang, on the account that we’re old friends, I might as well give you a reminder. In Beijing, only people from the divine doctor’s family can cure your wife’s hands. The opportunity is right in front of you. If you miss it, there won’t be such a shop after you pass this village!”
“No! If you increase the price, we can’t…” Kang Ting was already a little angry. Before he could finish, Cheng Tang suddenly took two steps forward and interrupted him.” We’ll increase the price by half. If you can accept it, you can start treating Mrs. Kang now! ”
Upon hearing Cheng Tang agree so readily on behalf of the Kang family, Mo Jiu didn’t waste any time. He immediately took out the acupuncture bag he had brought with him from his pocket and disinfected the silver needles in the bag. Then, he started to operate it seriously according to the steps Mo Zhu had shown him previously.
In the first round of acupuncture, Mo Jiu stimulated the nerves in Lin Yuan’s entire body by inserting the needles into her acupuncture points. When he injected the internal energy that had already been brewed in his dantian into Lin Yuan’s body, Cheng Tang, who was observing him attentively, suddenly widened her eyes in surprise.
Cheng Tang’s expression darkened slightly as she rubbed her hands in disbelief.
If she wasn’t wrong just now, Mo Jiu should have used his internal energy to treat Lin Yuan. She had interacted with Mo Jiu before and didn’t realize that this man had internal energy. She didn’t expect him to hide it so well. Huo Xuan actually had such an expert by his side.
After quietly observing Mo Jiu for a few minutes, Cheng Tang realized that Mo Jiu didn’t use this internal energy very smoothly. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while. Then, she recalled that there was nothing abnormal about the man when she saw Mo Jiu a while ago. She suspected that Mo Jiu had recently opened his dantian and had internal energy.
Through the strength and speed of Mo Jiu’s acupuncture, Cheng Tang acutely sensed that his unfamiliarity with this acupuncture technique and his control of his internal energy were not especially accurate. It was also because of this that when Mo Jiu completed the entire acupuncture technique through his internal energy, his forehead was already covered in sweat.
Time passed minute by minute. After Lin Yuan’s acupuncture points were all opened, Mo Jiu reconnected the woman’s broken limbs.
After going through the process once, he placed the silver needles back into the acupuncture bag according to the instructions. Mo Jiu held the edge of the bed and heaved a long sigh of relief.
The entire process took two and a half hours before Lin Yuan’s hands were finally reconnected.
