Chapter 289: Chapter 288: On-site Rescue

Just as they were about to leave, a villager suddenly ran over, sweating profusely, and shouted to Scott Taylor, "Scott, come quickly! Your younger brother has broken his leg and has just been taken to the health clinic!"

Upon hearing this, Scott immediately sprinted toward the health clinic’s direction.

Peter Brown followed closely behind.

The village was not very large in the first place, and soon the two arrived at the Township Health Center.

At the center of the village was a busy place, and Peter Brown could already see that the health center wasn’t very large, but it was surrounded by many people watching.

Arriving at the clinic, Peter sees several strong young men wiping their sweat off, an unconscious middle-aged man on a bamboo stretcher, and some women looking at the man on the stretcher with heavy faces.

"David, what happened to you?" Scott quickly went to pull the man on the stretcher by his hand and asked.

But the man on the stretcher was already unconscious and looked in very bad shape.

A young doctor from the health clinic said, "He’s broken his leg, and it’s probably a comminuted fracture. He’s also lost a lot of blood, and our resources here are limited. It’s best to send him to the County Hospital."

"Send to the County Hospital?"

Everyone urgently asked the young doctor if there would be any danger.

"To be honest, I don’t know. The mountain roads from Blackstone Village to here all take time, and even if we send him there, it might not be successful. Don’t waste your money on this. Get ready instead!"

"Doctor, please save him!"

A middle-aged woman had already grabbed the young doctor’s arm.

"It’s not that I don’t want to save him, but you can see our limited resources here. We can’t handle even a lighter case, let alone such a serious one. To tell the truth, don’t waste your money going to the county! Sigh."

The health clinic doctors were straightforward in their speech. They knew that the villagers had no money, and in this situation, sending the patient to the County Hospital would not work even en route.

"Ahh!"

A middle-aged woman burst into tears.

"I have money! I have money! Send him to the County Hospital immediately!" Scott hurriedly pulled out the 1,000 dollars and shouted loudly.

"We can only find a car then. The health clinic’s car went to County Town yesterday and has not returned yet." Another doctor said.

Ah!

Everyone felt disappointed upon hearing this. There would be no time to find a car now.

The young doctor said, "I’ve called and urged them to rush back, but his condition is too serious. It’s not just his leg, his head is also injured. You should prepare. If you really want to send him, you can only find a car. But it’s hard to find one for now, let’s just wait."

With the doctor’s experience, there was little hope for this villager.

"Right, Boss Wang, I heard that you can do something. Please help us save this person!"

To Peter’s surprise, Simon Taylor went down on his knees and hugged Peter’s leg.

"This..."

Before Peter could respond, Scott shouted, "Boss Wang, I heard that you saved the Hospital Director earlier. People say you have the ability. You can definitely save my brother, please!"

At this point, the middle-aged woman also knelt down and begged Peter. She didn’t know the situation, but she gripped at the straws when she heard that Peter could save him.

Peter had always intended to save the man, but now that things had turned out like this, he had no choice but to say, "Everyone, please stand up. I never said I wouldn’t save him."

The young doctor also stared at Peter with skepticism, but didn’t say anything.

Peter quickly assessed the middle-aged man’s condition. He had not only broken his leg but also suffered a head injury, resulting in serious internal bleeding. Combined with the blood loss from the mountain roads, the man was barely hanging on. No wonder the young doctor shook his head – even if they made it to the County Hospital, it would be too late. If Peter didn’t intervene, the man was heading toward a single path: death.

Without a moment to lose, Peter took out the silver needle and swiftly pierced it into the middle-aged man’s body.

Everyone gathered around and watched, their eyes fixed on Peter Brown’s movements. They were all secretly amazed by Peter’s acupuncture technique, having their horizons expanded.

Even the young doctors craned their necks to take a look. At first, they were dismissive, but when they saw Peter’s skill, their mouths gaped open.

This time, Peter used the One Hundred and Eight Heaven and Earth acupuncture technique. Only this method could protect the middle-aged man’s vital energy; otherwise, he would have no chance of surviving.

In an instant, all 108 needles had been inserted.

After completing the 108 needles, Peter fed the man a Healing Injury Pill and then sighed, "His vital energy is preserved, but now I must perform surgery on him."

The middle-aged man couldn’t move on the stretcher, so Peter had no choice but to treat him on the ground. Peter knew that moving the man even slightly could lead to his death.

Peter knew that the first area to operate on was the man’s head, as this was the key to his survival.

After inserting another round of needles, Peter used the Juyuan acupuncture technique to protect key areas of the head.

At this point, he saw Peter injecting True Qi continuously along the silver needle.

As the True Qi entered the body, Peter guided the blood inside the skull to flow out through the needles.

As time slowly passed, everyone watched Peter’s treatment intently, not daring to make a sound. Even doctors from the Sanitary Institute gathered to observe.

Peter kept twisting the silver needles, and each needle vibrated continuously. Then, the vibrating needles withdrew automatically.

As Peter pulled out the needles, blood seeped out of the puncture sites.

"Please bring some gauze."

Peter said to one of the young doctors.

Before the doctor moved, a female nurse quickly brought the materials.

After wiping away the blood with a cotton ball, Peter applied some medicine to the wound and said, "The head issue is resolved."

Just like that?

Many people were puzzled, watching in amazement as Peter managed to do what would typically require complicated surgery with a few silver needles.

However, everyone was stunned by Peter’s technique, including the doctors, who didn’t dare to say anything.

At this point, an ambulance siren sounded, signaling its arrival. However, no one paid attention to the ambulance, as they were all focused on Peter’s rescue attempt.

Several middle-aged doctors rushed over. They were from the County Hospital, and after learning about the severity of the situation, they quickly arrived at the scene.

Upon seeing such a large crowd, one of the doctors loudly asked, "Where is the patient?"

However, no one paid any attention to them, leaving the doctors dumbfounded.

The young doctor, who was actually the Hospital Director of the Township Health Center, came forward and said with a bitter smile, "Someone’s already saving him, I guess."

"Someone’s saving him?"

Several rushed doctors quickly asked about the situation.

After the young doctor explained, one of the middle-aged doctors said, "This situation is too complicated. He needs skull surgery for his head injury, but he’s lost too much blood and has such a severe leg injury that he can’t support the surgery."

Another person shook his head and said, "In such a situation, well..."

Both of them knew in their hearts that there was no chance of saving the man in such a condition.

Soon, the two of them went over to look at the man on the stretcher. With their experience, they knew there was no hope.

"Prepare for the aftermath."

One of them sighed.
