"Then what if I cure her?"
Lu Yang sneered and looked at Song Yuchao.
"If you can truly cure this patient, I, Song Yuchao, will take you as my master, learn Traditional Chinese Medicine diligently from you, and promote its development, acknowledging its power!"
Song Yuchao continued.
"Alright, though I don't fancy you as a disciple, promoting Traditional Chinese Medicine is indeed my ideal. So be it!"
Lu Yang said, and left the hospital with Shen Yiman, returning to Cloud Top Villa. Lu Yang began searching for medicinal herbs to treat the patient. Fortunately, Gu Laheng Deli had stored a large number of herbs in Cloud Top Villa, both common and extremely precious, all intended to enhance their potential. Now, they were put to good use.
Soon, Lu Yang found all the herbs needed for Wu Yisheng's wife. He then arranged the silver needles neatly and cleared out a room to serve as a future clinic for treating the sick. Everything was ready, and they were just waiting for Wu Yisheng to bring the patient over.
"Lu Yang, do you think Wu Yisheng will bring his wife? I feel he trusts that Old Song more!"
Shen Yiman stood beside him, seeing Lu Yang busy with preparations, and asked softly.
"He should. As long as there's a glimmer of hope, I believe Wu Yisheng won't give up!"
Lu Yang said with great confidence.
"Let's hope so."
Shen Yiman nodded.
Indeed, half an hour later, Wu Yisheng arrived at the entrance of Cloud Top Villa in a minivan.
"President Lu!"
"I've troubled you greatly this time. If you can save my wife, I'll do anything for you, even be your beast of burden!"
Wu Yisheng said earnestly to Lu Yang.
"Wu Yisheng, there's no need for such politeness. Helping those in need is what a doctor should do. Moreover, you are a builder of the Black Dragon Capital project, so I should certainly help you!"
Lu Yang said with a smile.
"Thank you, President Lu!"
Upon hearing Lu Yang's words, Dr. Wu quickly expressed his gratitude.
"You're welcome. Hurry and carry her into the clinic. Everything is prepared there, and we can start the treatment for your wife immediately!"
Lu Yang continued.
"Yes!"
Wu Yisheng, along with the people beside him, carried his wife on a stretcher into the treatment room Lu Yang had prepared in Cloud Top Villa.
Lu Yang laid the patient down and began the treatment. He swiftly inserted all the silver needles into the patient's body, ninety-nine to eighty-one acupoints, using ninety-nine to eighty-one silver needles. Each insertion was quick and accurate. After all the needles were in place, Wu Yisheng's wife trembled, and dark blood began to flow from the tips of the needles.
Lu Yang calmly took out a basin and collected all the blood. Soon, the basin was filled with a considerable amount of dark, viscous blood.
"This is the toxins mixed with blood from your wife's body. I am cleaning out some of the toxins from her blood."
"However, to clear the toxins from her internal organs will take some effort."
"Please wait outside. I need a quiet environment for the treatment!"
Lu Yang said directly to Wu Yisheng.
"Yes!"
Wu Yisheng was now thoroughly impressed with Lu Yang's methods and quickly walked out.
Lu Yang crushed all the herbs and put them into a special container. Then, he channeled a trace of true qi from the Black Dragon Token into the container and placed it over a flame to be heated.
Meanwhile, Lu Yang gently rotated the silver needles inserted into the patient's internal organs, forcing out the toxins.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, all special components within a patient's body are considered a type of toxin. Cancer, too, is when the body's own cells are consumed by cancerous cells, becoming harmful cells that destroy the immune system. TCM methods involve clearing these harmful cells, or toxins, from the body to rejuvenate its functions.
Lu Yang's next step was to gradually clear the toxins from Wu Yisheng's wife's body and then use his own concocted medicine to supplement her body and restore her physiological functions. After all, the liver cancer was in its late stage, and her physiological functions had been depleted by the virus. Without supplementing her body's functions, her body might not withstand further treatment.
Just as Lu Yang was attempting to clear the toxins from the patient's lungs, her body began to tremble violently. Lu Yang knew that her body had reached its limit, and continuing the treatment would be too much for her.
Lu Yang had no choice but to stop his actions. He then examined the medicine he had been refining for half an hour. It had turned into a black liquid and was not yet fully brewed.
Lu Yang unleashed a palm strike, channeling his inner force to make the flames burn more intensely. After ten minutes of this, the medicine Lu Yang was refining changed from black to golden yellow, emitting a rich medicinal fragrance.
"It's finally done!"
Lu Yang exhaled a sigh of relief, took out the herbal paste, and rolled it into ten small golden pills.
Lu Yang took out a black pill and placed it directly into Wu Yisheng's wife's mouth. The pill melted instantly upon contact, and its potent medicinal power began to nourish her body. Within minutes, her extremely pale face regained a hint of color and continued to become more radiant.
Wu Yisheng's wife's body also recovered rapidly. She opened her eyes, and the pained expression on her face disappeared.
"President Lu, thank you. I feel much better now, and my whole body is much lighter!"
Wu Yisheng's wife looked at Lu Yang and thanked him profusely.
"It's alright, but your body is not yet fully healed. Lie down properly, and I will continue your treatment!"
Lu Yang said, and continued to manipulate the silver needles, clearing the toxins from Wu Yisheng's wife's internal organs. After an hour, Lu Yang had cleared most of the toxins from her internal organs, leaving only one-third remaining, which would require two more sessions of slow clearing. The fewer the toxins, the more stubborn they became.
"Alright, today's treatment is concluded. I will perform acupuncture again in a week!"
Lu Yang withdrew the silver needles, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile.
By this time, Wu Yisheng's wife's condition had improved significantly. She could basically get out of bed and walk, and her basic life functions were largely self-sufficient.
"Thank you, President Lu. I feel no different from a normal person now!"
Wu Yisheng's wife said, sitting up and looking at Lu Yang with excitement.
