Chapter 424 - Chapter 424 Chapter 288 Tan Nvs Danger Looms at Dawn

Chapter 424: Chapter 288 Tan Nv’s Danger Looms at Dawn Chapter 424: Chapter 288 Tan Nv’s Danger Looms at Dawn Gu Changsheng always was someone who would seek revenge for any grudge!

Moreover, he never put off taking revenge until the next day, but now, as Tan Nv was in imminent danger, she couldn’t extricate herself!

“Corpse cremation?”

Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s command, everyone around was taken aback, their faces showing panic and confusion.

“Lady Changsheng, the dead should be respected, even if the Futu Demoness is unforgivable. It would be enough to throw her body outside the city to Mass Grave Hill, but why must we cremate the corpse? This…” Even Si Xi, who had followed Zhou Mu through many battles and was experienced on the battlefield, found this hard to bear, and quickly spoke up to dissuade her.

Gu Changsheng gave Si Xi a cold glance, then spoke icily, “Throw her body in Mass Grave Hill? And wait for the Gu insects in her body to bring chaos to more people?”

“The Miao people at the Southern Border use their bodies for Gu cultivation, and their whole body is poisonous. If you’re not afraid that more innocent people will lose their lives because of her, by all means, throw her body there and see what happens!”

“Even if the people from the Southern Border die in a foreign land, they will be known about. If you’re not worried about attracting the Corpse Drivers from the Southern Border, feel free to throw her corpse there and see what happens!”

The voice of Gu Changsheng resounded, striking the ears of those around her, invigorating their spirits.

The people and events of the Southern Border had always been mysterious and unknown to outsiders; they knew neither the method to solve Gu nor that a single corpse could cause so much trouble…

“To someone who’s hurt my people, even grinding her bones and scattering her ashes can hardly quell the hatred in my heart. What are you standing around for, burn her!” Gu Changsheng barked an order, without giving the Futu Demoness’s corpse another glance, turning around to get busy with her own matters.

Upon hearing the command, Si Xi dared not hesitate and immediately poured kindling and flammable oil atop the pile.

Flames soared into the sky, with a stench of charred flesh that induced vomiting.

Yet, Gu Changsheng had no time to care about these things…

She had to prepare a blood serum separator, find a blood type that matched Tan Nv’s, to prevent the need for surgery if Tan Nv really had ruptured her organs!

To perform a surgery to open the body cavity, even in modern times, was a major procedure, let alone in such a backward ancient time. Even if she was as careful as possible, she couldn’t ensure absolute success!

“Tan Nv, you must hang in there, I will definitely pull you back from the brink of death!” Gu Changsheng’s hands trembled as she looked at the dozens of bowls of egg whites before her, trying to steady her mind.

She could do it! She definitely could!

If Heaven had brought her to this primitive ancient time, it wouldn’t so easily allow her to doubt herself!

She believed in her medical skills; she definitely could do it!

Even if it was an exploratory operation to open the body cavity, in her previous life she could have done it blindfolded, and she can do it now as well!

“Gu Changsheng! You must believe in yourself! Even if others don’t believe in you, you can’t doubt yourself!” Gu Changsheng muttered to herself over and over, psyching herself up.

Butcher Wang back then was merely an exploratory abdominal surgery and suturing procedure, but Tan Nv required thoracotomy!

Thoracotomy surgery is extremely complex, and Gu Changsheng would not attempt it unless it was absolutely necessary. But her instincts told her she wasn’t so lucky this time. Judging by the degree of Tan Nv’s chest hemorrhage, her organs must have ruptured!

For an exploratory surgery, the ribs must be sawed open, and right now she wasn’t sure which organ of Tan Nv’s had ruptured…

Thinking about all this made Gu Changsheng a little frantic!

“Changsheng, believe in yourself, calm down!” Mr. Ban Shan appeared not far behind Gu Changsheng at some point, his aged voice seemed to have gone through the vicissitudes of life, bringing an inexplicable sense of peace upon hearing it.

“Foster father…” Gu Changsheng turned around, a momentary confusion in her eyes.

She was worried about Tan Nv’s condition and felt like a harbinger of doom…

Ever since she came to this world, she had attracted countless troubles…

Han Qiu was shot with a fatal arrow because of her, Borjigin Nian blocked a palm strike for her and was poisoned with Gu; Tan Nv had even tried to buy her time to escape, and now it was unknown whether she could survive…

She always seemed to bring misfortune to those around her…

“Daughter, one knows joy and sorrow only after experiencing the world. Your father’s daughter is the person with the most exquisite medical skills in the world. Your father believes in you; you can definitely save Tan Nv!” Mr. Ban Shan’s voice was like a clear spring, flowing through Gu Changsheng’s restless heart.

“To experience the world and know joy and sorrow… to go through favor and disgrace while the heart becomes more steadfast… Foster father, I can do it!” A determined look flashed in Gu Changsheng’s eyes.

She should not let herself be unsettled by the overwhelming might of the Futu Demoness.

She is Gu Changsheng, this world’s unique and unparalleled Gu Changsheng!

She definitely could do it!

When Lady Changsheng summoned in the middle of the night, doctors throughout Liuzhou City hurried to spread the word, not daring to slack.

Unless it was a major event related to medical skills, Lady Changsheng would never summon everyone in such a large-scale effort deep into the night!

Hu Yihai and Hu Tiandong were the fastest to arrive, seeing Gu Changsheng focused on dealing with eggs, they were at a loss for a moment.

“Father, Lady Changsheng called us over in the middle of the night just to watch her beat eggs?” Hu Tiandong asked his father quietly, pulling him to the side.

Hu Yihai immediately glared at his own son upon hearing these words, “Don’t talk nonsense! Is Lady Changsheng someone who acts without reason? She must have her reasons for doing so. We should just quietly wait for her instructions!”

At his words, Hu Tiandong fell silent hesitantly.

In the eyes of all the doctors at the Liuzhou Medical Guild, Lady Changsheng was seen as a divine presence, a Medicine God without a doubt!

More and more doctors gathered, and the area around the Gu Residence began to buzz with people.

The dozens of doctors from the Liuzhou Medical Guild, along with their able-bodied family members, waited respectfully off to the side, not daring to take a deep breath, their eyes unblinkingly fixed on every move of Lady Changsheng.

Lady Changsheng was the Medicine God. Whatever she did was bound to have profound implications!

One must watch carefully! One must remember clearly!

Before anyone knew it, a figure clad in black appeared behind Gu Changsheng. It was Yhan Ting, attentively watching her every move…

After a while, Gu Changsheng finally lifted her head to look around, “Has everyone arrived? Select a few who are proficient in treating internal injuries, change clothes and enter the tent. There is a patient in there. Report back to me after the consultation.”

“Yes!” Hu Yihai responded, exchanged a glance with Elder Xu, and chose several doctors from Liuzhou City known for treating internal injuries before turning and heading toward the tent.

Ever since Butcher Wang was injured, they hadn’t witnessed the miraculous medical skills of Lady Changsheng, which were out of the ordinary!

This time, they were finally getting another opportunity to witness them!

“You were supposed to be at Baili Mountain, why have you come here?” The corner of Gu Changsheng’s eye caught sight of Yhan Ting standing behind her, and she asked with a suppressed surprise.

Yhan Ting, still icy as ever, leaned forward slightly as he replied, “I received the lord’s message early this morning, saying that the adult might need me, so I hurried over!”

At these words, a rage began to simmer in Gu Changsheng’s eyes. Zhou Mu knew!

Zhou Mu really knew! Even though he knew, he still hadn’t shown up!

Admittedly, Gu Changsheng didn’t believe that Zhou Mu would gain any advantages from the Futu Demoness with his capabilities. However, the terror of hovering between life and death made her still feel a sense of dread when thinking back on it!

He stood by, indifferent and unresponsive, did he actually know that she had prepared to die, to be reduced to ashes alongside the Futu Demoness?

“My lady, the lord has received the message from Shang Xie early in the morning, knowing that the lady would only face a bloody calamity…” Yhan Ting was still surrounded by an aura of bloodthirst. Asking a killer who doesn’t blink at murder to offer comfort, well, that was a bit too much to ask…

Yhan Ting hadn’t finished his words; actually, his lord had received a message from Shang Xie that Lady Changsheng would only suffer some skin wounds…

If this weren’t the case, his lord would have certainly come rushing over without hesitation, rather than keeping his composure as he was now.

In reality, even now, he was a subordinate of Lady Changsheng…

Being caught in the middle like this, it truly wasn’t a pleasant feeling!

“Shut up! The calamity started with him. Even if Tan Nv is his person, if she died protecting me, I would not forgive myself! I don’t want to hear excuses! If Tan Nv is unharmed, then let it be. But if Tan Nv is harmed, tell Huo Shuixian to clean her neck and wait for me!” Gu Changsheng’s hands didn’t stop as she spoke coldly.

“My lady, actually, the lord was compelled by necessity…” Yhan Ting, with a dark expression, racked his brains to come up with “compelled by necessity,” a phrase fraught with feeling…

“Shut up! I don’t want to hear any unnecessary explanations! Go cleanse yourself and prepare to assist me!” Gu Changsheng sternly ordered, cutting off Yhan Ting’s words.

Upon hearing this, Yhan Ting immediately lowered his head.

His admiration for Lady Changsheng now came from the heart, even more than for his own lord!

Being able to assist her, he considered himself fortunate in three lifetimes, but thinking about Lady Changsheng’s dissatisfaction with his lord, Yhan Ting couldn’t help but worry…

Yuan Bao had told him the crux of the matter as soon as he entered the city, but his lord insisted on keeping Lady Changsheng in the dark, what could he do?

His lord had gone to great lengths to keep Lady Changsheng safe, even if it meant being misunderstood, he did not wish to reveal the truth and worry Lady Changsheng. How should this be explained?

Yhan Ting was not one to probe into people’s hearts, but he worried on his lord’s behalf; he was concerned that Lady Changsheng, caring as she was for those around her, would be angry with his lord!

“Are you not leaving yet!” Seeing Yhan Ting standing without moving, Gu Changsheng issued another cold rebuke.

Now was not the time to be lost in thought; time equated to life, and even though Tan Nv’s condition was relatively stable for the moment, Gu Changsheng believed it was just the calm before the storm!

Seeing this, Yhan Ting dared not linger on any thoughts and hurriedly left to cleanse himself.

During the brief gap in their conversation, the doctors who entered the tent had already come back out.

“Lady Changsheng, the situation is dire. The patient inside, I’m afraid, is beyond help…” Hu Yihai, dressed in a new white robe, spoke with a look of regret, “The pulse is light and floaty, sometimes fading, barely perceptible at the lower positions, symptomatic of damage to the five internal organs and six entrails…”

“My lady, logically speaking, with such an extent of injury, the patient would have already suffocated. I saw the lady cut open the patient’s chest, but even so, I’m afraid it won’t last much longer…” Elder Xu said with a grave shake of his head.

“Yes, my lady, with such a condition, no medicine or stone can cure it!” Another doctor who had joined the consultation agreed.

“My lady, with this kind of illness, even if the Great Luo Immortals were reincarnated, they couldn’t save him…”
