Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Erysipelas
Meanwhile, in Dragon Lake First-Class Villa District.
After taking Xiaoyu to kindergarten, Chen Xuan, having nothing to do, went to stroll in the community park.
Just as he reached a square, he saw quite a few people gathered there, seemingly watching something.
As Chen Xuan approached, he saw that a man in his fifties, dressed in a suit, had fainted on the ground, while a young man was vigorously performing CPR on him.
There was someone fallen ill, someone administering treatment, and it was not Chen Xuan’s place to intervene under normal circumstances.
However, when Chen Xuan saw the face of the man in the suit, he couldn’t help but furrow his brow.
The middle-aged man’s face was flushed, something ordinary people would take as a sign of respiratory distress.
But right at the edge of his hairline on his forehead, there was a hardly noticeable red vertical line, which was critically important!
"Poison from a toad!" Chen Xuan was shocked.
He recognized at a glance that the symptoms this man was displaying were those of toad poison!
Toad poison was extremely toxic and could claim a life within minutes.
Performing CPR at this time was simply a waste of time, as futile as trying to catch fish by climbing a tree!
"Make way!"
As the situation was urgent, Chen Xuan didn’t waste any more words and immediately pushed the young man performing CPR aside.
This move immediately caused dissatisfaction among the onlookers.
"What’s wrong with you, can’t you see someone is trying to save a life here!"
"Exactly, this man is Huai City’s richest, Wong Jiasen, can you afford to delay the rescue!"
The crowd reacted emotionally, especially a well-dressed woman by the patient’s side.
This woman was Wong Jiasen’s wife, Madam Wong.
Madam Wong saw her husband fainting and was frantic with anxiety. The sight of this young man obstructing the rescue made her even more furious.
"What are you trying to do, kill my husband!" Madam Wong shouted harshly, grabbing Chen Xuan’s arm.
Chen Xuan’s expression was ice-cold, "If you keep delaying, your husband will really be dead!"
Madam Wong was startled and instinctively let go of his arm.
Chen Xuan wasted no more words. He took out a needle case from his body and began to perform acupuncture on Wong Jiasen.
The peculiar nature of the toad poison was that it first rose to the crown of the head and then, from there, it would surge and spread through the body.
What Chen Xuan needed to do now was to suppress the poison from the head and force the deadly toxin out of the body!
Toad poison was known in ancient times as the deadliest and most strange poison, even used by the emperor to secretly execute disfavored ministers!
Hence, even for Chen Xuan, fully detoxifying was not a simple task and required a lengthy process.
As Chen Xuan administered the needles, one could indeed see the redness on Wong Jiasen’s face slowly receding, gradually returning to normal, indicating the poison was being suppressed from his head.
If Chen Xuan continued, it wouldn’t be long before he could completely expel the toad poison!
However, just as Chen Xuan was preparing to continue.
Ding-a-ling-a-ling...
His cell phone started ringing in his pocket.
Chen Xuan was intent on saving the man, having no interest in checking his phone and continued with the acupuncture.
In the storage room of Dingxing Entertainment Company, Han Jingting listened to the continuous ringing of the unanswered call on her phone, filled with urgent anxiety.
Even she had not expected that at this critical juncture, the first person who came to her mind would be Chen Xuan!
What disappointed her, though, was that the other side was not answering her calls!
Down the corridor outside the door, Sun Ji and others’ voices occasionally echoed, each one sounding like a call from a devil.
"Answer the phone! Answer the phone!"
Han Jingting was desperately shouting in her mind.
At that moment, Chen Xuan’s treatment of Wong Jiasen had reached a critical point, but the phone in his pocket rang again.
This was already the third call.
Chen Xuan, having no choice, took out his phone.
When he saw it was Han Jingting’s name, he instantly paused.
Han Jingting hadn’t taken the initiative to contact him for a long time. Now that she had made three consecutive calls, could it be that there was some kind of emergency?
Chen Xuan didn’t think much and pressed the answer button directly.
"Jingting, is there something wrong?"
In the storage room, as soon as Han Jingting heard Chen Xuan’s voice, she felt like she had grasped a lifeline, overjoyed to the point of madness.
"Chen Xuan, Dingxing Entertainment Company! Hurry, come save me!"
"What!" Chen Xuan’s heart skipped a beat in shock, and he quickly asked, "Jingting, what exactly happened?"
But there was no response from Han Jingting. Chen Xuan looked at his phone, only to discover that the other party had already hung up.
Chen Xuan immediately furrowed his brows.
He knew very well that Han Jingting would never joke with him.
It must be true that Han Jingting was in trouble!
And it was something serious!
"Hey, young man, aren’t you supposed to save someone? Stop answering the phone!" Madam Wong urged anxiously.
But Chen Xuan didn’t heed her, instead pulling out two needles and inserting them into Wong Jiasen’s forehead at the Yin Tang point and the Ren Zhong point, respectively.
With these two needles sealing the pressure points, he could temporarily prevent the spread of the poison.
"I still have something urgent to attend to, so I must leave now. Remember, don’t remove these two needles before I get back, or there will be serious consequences!"
Having said that, Chen Xuan immediately got up and left.
Madam Wong and everyone else looked at each other in dismay.
This young man said he would save someone, so why did he leave halfway through?
That was somewhat too irresponsible!
Chen Xuan certainly wanted to save people, but he was not great to that extent.
The life of a stranger naturally could not be compared with the life of his own wife!
Leaving the park, Chen Xuan sped toward Dingxing Entertainment Company as fast as possible.
Luckily, Dingxing Entertainment Company wasn’t too far away from there, just over a twenty-minute drive.
Chen Xuan’s eyes were bloodshot, and the aura of murderous intent filled the car.
Whoever dared to bully Chen Xuan’s woman would be doomed!
No sooner had Chen Xuan left the park than a young man clothed in a white coat arrived at the scene with a team of medical professionals in tow.
The young man was named Xu Zhen, Wong Jiasen’s private doctor, and the medical team was responsible for Wong’s health.
They had rushed over as soon as they received the call from Madam Wong.
"Doctor Xu, you’ve finally arrived!"
As soon as Madam Wong saw Xu Zhen, she felt like she had seen a lifeline.
Xu Zhen was about to speak when he noticed the Silver Needle in both the Yin Tang and Ren Zhong points on Wong Jiasen’s forehead.
"What’s going on here?"
Madam Wong hurriedly explained, "Just now a young man claimed he could save my husband, but he left after treating him halfway. These needles were left by him..."
"This is outrageous!"
Xu Zhen denounced, "Mr. Wong’s status is noble, how can he allow such a reckless fellow to meddle with his treatment!"
Xu Zhen, who had studied under a famous doctor and graduated from a top foreign medical school, was extremely conceited.
In his opinion, a prestigious figure like Wong Jiasen should only be treated by a prominent doctor with exceptional medical skills like himself.
Now a random passerby dared to steal his thunder, which was nothing less than the greatest insult to him!
After speaking, Xu Zhen attempted to remove the Silver Needle from Wong Jiasen’s pressure points, only to be stopped by Madam Wong.
"Doctor Xu, that young man just said that these two needles must not be removed carelessly. Otherwise, my husband might be in grave danger..."
Xu Zhen scoffed, "Madam Wong, haven’t you realized yet? That man just now, if not a quack, then he’s a swindler! Otherwise, why would he leave halfway through the treatment?"
"He did it either because he was afraid of being held responsible and fled early, or he wants you to reach out to him on your own, then he can trick you out of your money!"
"Is that so?" A light of realization dawned on Madam Wong, "Doctor Xu, you see things more clearly indeed. I almost got deceived by that person!"
Pleased with himself, Xu Zhen didn’t say another word and proceeded to remove the Silver Needle from Wong Jiasen’s Ren Zhong point.
