Chapter 58: Acupuncture and Moxibustion Therapy

  Although the numerous needles pierced by Southern Sujin had made Wang Feng's shoulder lose its sensation, the bullet fragment was still squeezed out from inside, which made Wang Feng feel that kind of piercing pain psychologically.

  "Old Wang, hurry up and make your move!" Hu Yanling called out to him as he saw Wang Feng's attention shift to his shoulder.

  "Hmm." Wang Feng responded with a grunt, and turned his eyes back to the chessboard. But that piece was squeezed out from under his shoulder after all, how could he completely let it go? His eyes darted back and forth, almost scanning the chessboard in one glance, then looking at his shoulder again.

  "Old Wang, this won't do! When did the once sharp and decisive Old Wang become so wishy-washy?" Li Yuan also chimed in from the side, "Didn't you just say you wanted to emulate the ancients? Guan Yu didn't think like that back then."

  Teased by Hu Yanling and Li Yuan, Wang Feng's face couldn't hold up. In his heart, he knew they were doing it for his own good, trying to distract him and alleviate the pain.

  "Don't worry, both of you. Xiaosu's acupuncture is very effective, and I haven't felt any pain at all until now." Wang Feng explained, "It's just that seeing this bullet fragment brings up hatred. It has been inside my body for decades, almost torturing me every day, so I'm a bit uncomfortable in my heart."

  "Never mind, let's play chess," Wang Feng suddenly shouted at Li Yuan.

  "What?" Li Yuan exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes fixed on the chessboard. "Old Wang, when did you become so formidable? You found an opportunity so quickly."

  Wang Feng's face showed a triumphant smile, "Old Li, who told you not to focus on the chess game? Just now, you made a terrible move and blocked your own way!"

  "Hmph!" Li Yuan "angrily" turned his head to one side, "I won't go down with you, I'll just stay here and watch, see how Old Hu will kill you until not a single piece of armor is left on you."

  "Haha, Old Li, then just wait and see. Today my state is very good, perhaps after a while, Old Hu will also surrender. In a one-on-two situation, I can surprisingly defeat Li Yuan, Wang Feng's interest is very high. With this excitement, his attention naturally focuses on the chessboard, and he no longer pays attention to Su Nan's actions beside him."

  After squeezing the shrapnel to the surface of the skin, Su Nan stopped and took out a golden needle from the needle bag. It was not a needle but a knife, about ten centimeters long, flat, with two teeth side by side, and the head was a curved sharp blade.

  Seeing Su Nan holding that needle knife about to stab Wang Feng's shoulder, Wang Xun standing beside him couldn't help but rush at him and shout, "What are you doing?"

  "Shut up!" Wang Haiyang quickly pulled him, telling him not to speak. Looking at Su Nan's movements, it was clear that this was a critical moment for treating Wang Feng, how could he let Wang Xun disturb him?

  "Dad, you can't let him do this!" Wang Xun struggled with his arm, expressing his resistance, and then expressed his own views to Wang Haiyang.

  "Look at him, he's going to cut open Grandpa's skin, but what if bleeding occurs after the skin is cut? What if the bleeding doesn't stop? He didn't even prepare emergency blood supplies, how dare he cut open Grandpa's skin?"

  Besides, after the skin is cut open, it must be sutured back together, where are his suturing tools? Can't wait until then to let us go home and find him some sewing needles and threads.

  After the skin is cut open, where are his anti-inflammatory and antibacterial medications to prevent infection? I didn't see him prepare anything!

  "He's now making no preparations at all, and is about to directly cut open grandfather's shoulder. Is he treating grandfather or harming his life?"

  Actually, Wang Haiyang, as well as Wang Haizhou and Wang Haicheng standing beside him, all had doubts, but they were always intimidated by the old man's dignity. Seeing that the old man did not express any opinion about Su Nan, still with a trusting attitude, they also dared not say anything else.

  Wang Xun is fed up with Su Nan and can't wait to find an excuse to deal with him. Now that he has found these weaknesses, he thinks he has hope of dealing with Su Nan. What if he's good at fighting? If the old master gets hurt, his family will naturally go to the government for help to deal with him. Of course, the old master can't get hurt, but since Su Nan has made these mistakes, even if it's possible that the old master might get hurt, it's enough reason for them to use this excuse to ask the government to teach him a lesson.

  With Wang Xun taking the lead, the three siblings of the Wang family also nodded in agreement. Wang Haizhou walked over and asked Wang Feng in a low voice, "Dad, what do you think we should do in this situation? Xiao Xun is right, Dr. Su seems to be unprepared."

  "Huh?" Wang Feng glared at Wang Hai Zhou, "Don't spout nonsense, move to the side quickly. I think Little Su has already considered these things and will be prepared."

  Despite saying that, Wang Feng still carefully examined Su Nan again, looking for the items he had brought. Apart from the needle case, there was also a small wooden box on the table, and no other place to put things could be found.

  But that small wooden box didn't seem capable of holding many items, it was really hard to believe that with just these things, Su Nan dared to operate on Wang Feng.

  "Xiao Su, it seems like you're going to operate on Old Wang's head. Do we need to do anything else?" Hu Yanling asked. He knew that if Wang Feng were to speak out about his suspicions of Su Nan, both Su Nan and Wang Feng would feel awkward, but he could resolve this embarrassment by speaking up himself.

  Just now when Wang Xun was shouting, Su Nan didn't mind and just casually observed the expressions of everyone in the scene. Seeing that even the three siblings of the Wang family were suspicious of him, while Wang Feng had a skeptical expression but still believed in him, Su Nan felt satisfied in his heart. As a doctor treating patients, if the patients don't trust the doctor, it will not only increase the difficulty of treatment but also be considered a failure on the part of the doctor.

  "Don't worry, Mr. Hu, there's no need for you to make any more preparations, I've already got everything ready. Just focus on taking care of Wang Lao's injuries and he'll be fine." Su Nan replied confidently.

  "Alright, let's just watch then." Hu Yanling also knew that the more capable a person is, the less they allow others to question them. After hearing Su Nan's affirmative tone, he naturally shut his mouth and stopped talking.

  Turning his head to look at Wang Xun, Su Nan said to him: "Go find a bowl and place it under here."

  "Hmph!" Wang Xun didn't expect Su Nan to order him around, and he wasn't pleased about it. But since they were trying to cure his grandfather's illness, Su Nan had arranged for him to do this task using that as an excuse, so he had no choice but to comply, feeling even more uncomfortable. He glared at Su Nan for a moment before going to fetch a large bowl as instructed.

  Let Wang Feng lean forward slightly, then let Wang Xun hold the bowl to receive it below. Su Nan raised the needle knife in his hand and the blade tip cut down on the large package. As the incision grew larger, the metal plate also revealed its original shape.

  There was a bullet the size of a coin, with serrations on its edge, uneven and irregular, like a spider's long legs. Because it had been embedded in the flesh for so long, some of the flesh had already adhered to the bullet, even separating from the body. When Su Nan tried to remove the bullet, he would inevitably squeeze out this piece of flesh as well. The rotten flesh was dark red and emitted a foul odor, sliding past Wang Xun's eyes, "Dang" sound, falling into the bowl he was holding.

  "Ugh~~~~"

  Smelling this foul smell, Wang Xun almost vomited up the food he ate yesterday, hurriedly covering his mouth and nose, even having the idea of throwing down the bowl and running away, but looking at Old Man Wang sitting there, he really didn't dare.

  Unless Wang Xun didn't breathe, how could he cover it tightly? The stench still crept into his nostrils from the gaps between his fingers, constantly assaulting his senses and churning his stomach.

  Hu Yanning, Wang Feng and Li Yuan also smelled that smell, but after all, they had been practicing for many years. That calmness was not something ordinary people could compare to. They remained motionless and continued playing chess.

  As for Sunan, he had expected this situation and closed his sense of taste in advance, so the smell didn't affect him at all. Only Wang Xun was miserable, as he was closest to the bowl and felt it most strongly.

  He reached out along both sides of the wound and opened it up, then inserted the needle knife into the wound to cut away the rotting flesh that had become entangled with the bullet fragments.

  Of course, at this time, Su Nan's internal force was released and responded to the yuanqi circulation circle formed by the acupuncture on Wang Feng's shoulder, forming a layer of gas membrane that had already separated the useful tissues from the corrupted parts. His needle knife operated along the wall of the gas membrane and did not harm Wang Feng.

  After clearing away the rotten part, Sunan took over the wooden box on the table and opened it.

  At this time, Wang Xun, who had gradually adapted to the smell, let out a strange cry again, "Where's the blood? Why isn't there any blood?"

  When Wang Xun said this, others also felt strange: Yeah, what's going on? Why did Su Nan cut so many knives, but there was no blood flowing out of the wound?

  "Dr. Su, what's going on? Is it that Father's blood vessels in his shoulders have some kind of disease?" Wang Haizhou hastily asked.

  When treating in the hospital, it is always done in a specialized operating room, and the patient's family members are not allowed to enter. When Su Nan came to treat Wang Feng at his home, on the one hand, he knew that the treatment he was performing was not bloody, so he didn't mind them standing aside. Otherwise, seeing that bloody scene, I don't know how many of these people could stand it.

  "Now that you've asked, I'll explain," Su Nan said. "I've already sealed Wang Lao's blood vessels with a needle, so there won't be any bleeding. However, we still need to let out some blood later to flush the outer layer of the wound. I suggest you don't watch, or you might get scared."

  After hearing Su Nan's explanation, the Wang family temporarily stopped worrying. However, upon hearing that Su Nan was going to bleed the old man, they became tense again. "Doctor Su, will this have any impact on Father's body?"

  "No, it will just make Wang Lao's body healthier." Su Nan replied very affirmatively.
