Chapter 54

The entire Gu family's courtyard was silent. No one understood what was going on.

Gu Qianshan sprinted forward. Gu Tian didn't see the slightest hint of joy on his face; his heart sank.

But he still held onto a last trace of hope. Looking at Su Qiubai, he asked, "Where are the two G.o.dly doctors?"

Gu Qianshan hadn't spoken, but Gu Zhanchuan who was standing behind the crowd was already pale-faced.

Gu Tian and the rest didn't know how Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing looked like, but he did!

Seeing Su Qiubai was alone… He was certain that the two doctors weren't even here!

Gu Qianshan had the exact same thought as he shook his head and replied, "The two G.o.dly doctors… couldn't come."

He didn't bother informing Grandpa Gu about Su Qiubai's explanation. If he really had told Grandpa Gu that they couldn't get the two G.o.dly doctors because the road was being repaired, he would definitely blow up!

"They're still angry?" Sighing, Gu Tian continued to ask.

Gu Qianshan immediately nodded. In fact, he had thought that that was the real reason. After all, the excuse of the road being repaired was just nonsense. They might as well say that a gas tank exploded?

The situation was quiet for a moment.

"Then this is…" Turning his head, Gu Tian noticed a man behind Gu Qianshan, who was still holding a book in his hand, greedily reading it as if he wanted to drill into the book.

"This is Su Qiubai. Mr. Su."

Although Gu Qianshan still found it weird to see Su Qiubai's behavior, he still grandly introduced him to his dad.

Having heard his name, Gu Tian's eyes changed. He had heard all about the incident in the Xiao family's Dragons' Pool, Tiger's Den. He even knew that the whole matter was because of a person named Su Qiubai.

He didn't expect that Su Qiubai was actually just a very ordinary young man.

Although he was disappointed that the doctors didn't come, he took a deep breath and planned to greet Su Qiubai.

Unexpectedly, Su Qiubai lifted his head.

"Shenting acupoint… Who knows where the Shenting acupoint is?"

Su Qiubai's eyes were full of anxiety. He had never imagined that Hua Tuo would actually end up with giving him the book that contained the treatment for Gu Chengya. The only prerequisite was to learn the Hua Tuo's Qi observation skill.

Obviously, Huo Tuo deliberately left the skill to Su Qiubai, because he knew that Su Qiubai understood how to use the Qi observation skill… Huo Tuo just couldn't brush off his ego, that was why he let Su Qiubai treat Gu Chengya instead!

Su Qiubai had only found out when he was sitting in the taxi, it was why he was reading the medical skill book in a hurry. The technique precisely stated the acupoints and application methods of the needle. Combined with the Qi observation skill, he could return the venous veins to their position, and give her sufficient essence, then she would recover!

Others certainly didn't know what he was thinking when they saw Su Qiubai looking up and asking such a question.

The doctors were all stupefied.

In the end, Murong Deye was the one who replied, "The position of the Shenting acupoint is five points in from the hair on the top of the forehead. Why do you ask?"

"What about Ermen acupoint? And Qingming acupoint?"

It was as if Su Qiubai hadn't even heard Murong Deye's question, he just immediately carried on with even more questions.

His att.i.tude angered the doctors behind Murong Deye. Some of them even stood up. "Where did such an impolite person come from? Master Murong is the most respectful and skillful doctor in the medical world. He personally answered your question, but you didn't even show any grat.i.tude, instead you deliberately ignored his question."

The person who spoke was Pang Zhixue. He worked in a famous hospital and had always wanted to work for Murong Deye so he could use the old man's reputation to climb up socially.

However, one couldn't simply see Murong Deye. If it wasn't for Gu Chengya's illness, he wouldn't even have such an opportunity.

From the moment he saw Murong Deye, he had been thinking of ways to please the old man so that maybe Murong Deye would take him as his student.

But he hadn't had a suitable opportunity.

Just as he was anxiously wondering what he could do, an arrogant young man suddenly appeared and he was so rude to Murong Deye too! So without hesitation, Pang Zhixue stood up from the crowd and angrily scolded. He felt gleeful in his heart.

However, his action actually made the people from the Gu family, and even Murong Deye, to have a flash of displease in their eyes.

Standing at the back, Gu Zhanchuan thought he was seeing an idiot; he had never seen someone who would straight out take this critical moment to flatter the master.

Su Qiubai had no time to care for such a person. Only he understood that the earlier he performed the acupuncture procedure on Gu Chengya, the higher the chance that she could survive.

"I'm in a hurry, where is the Ermen acupoint and the Qingming acupoint?"

The old driver was so anxious that he was about to explode when he was forced to repeat the question.

Still it was Murong Deye who replied to him. Pang Zhixue once again wanted to take the chance to please him, but since the old master had taken the initiative to answer Su Qiubai, Pang Zhixue was embarrassed to speak.

"Okay, everyone don't disturb me…"

Having that said, Su Qiubai ran to a faraway pillar.

Everyone was stunned. However, this was the Gu family's courtyard after all, so if the Gu family didn't say a word about the crazy man, the others shouldn't make a sound.

Taking the opportunity, Gu Qianshan quickly whispered to Gu Tian, informing him that Su Qiubai had personally requested to come.

Gu Tian originally thought that Su Qiubai had some medical skills which was why he had asked those questions. But he was disappointed after listening to Gu Qianshan's words.

Murong Deye and the other doctors also didn't bother about Su Qiubai any longer. Is this a joke? He wasn't even clear of the acupoints… How can he cure Gu Chengya's illness?

Soon, everyone returned to their seats in front of Gu Chengya's room.

Gu Qianshan originally sent people to invite Su Qiubai over, but the person was chased away by him. Therefore, he could only let Su Qiubai remain in the yard alone reading his book.

"Brother, since the G.o.dly doctors aren't coming… What should we do?"

Gu Tian soon ignored Su Qiubai, and asked Murong Deye for the next action. After all, nothing was more important than treating Gu Chengya's illness.

Murong Deye hesitated for a while, then he suddenly stood up and looked at all the doctors present.

"Everyone. You all must be aware of the purpose for which the Gu family had invited all of us here. Chinese medicine is broad and profound. I admit that I don't have the confidence to cure Gu Chengya's illness. I wouldn't dare to say that I'm more skillful than everyone in this room, so the only thing we can do now is to brainstorm for ideas. Just speak out if you have any idea… The patient's condition is very critical. There's no time to delay!"

Every sentence from the old master was very sincere!

The seated doctors felt a chill. They didn't expect the old man to make such a decision at such a serious time. They were more convinced of his reputation today.

All the doctors were initially thinking about different ways to help Gu Chengya. Perhaps they could think of ideas that others couldn't.

Pang Zhixue stood up all of a sudden.

"Master Murong is right. Doctors should save lives. We should learn from the master's spirit and tolerance. His words reaffirmed my mission…"

That made the other doctors a little uncomfortable. Everyone's here to save Gu Chengya. Do you think we can't see that you're just trying to get on the master's good side?

Listening to his words, even Gu Tian's expression changed. Murong Deye was even more embarrassed.

On the other hand, Pang Zhixue wasn't aware of his att.i.tude. Subsequently, as soon as someone put forward his opinions, Pang Zhixue would stand up and go against it. His words were along the lines of: Do you think you're as talented as the master? The master hasn't even thought of an idea, who do you think you are to voice out an opinion?

So, in the end, everyone had become silent once more. What can you say with such a person around? If you try to argue with him, he'd say that you're rude and arrogant…

Murong Deye noticed that no one was speaking up so he had no choice but to stand up and let everyone know the idea he was considering all the while.

Upon listening to the idea, Pang Zhixue immediately stood up and tried to flatter the old master once more.

However, a shout came from the door.

"No, let me do it!"
