Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times
Chapter 425 - Chapter 425 Chapter 289 Can You Trust Me

Chapter 425: Chapter 289: Can You Trust Me? Chapter 425: Chapter 289: Can You Trust Me? Many doctors discussed and shook their heads repeatedly.

With such a condition, no matter what, it was beyond saving.

“Is this your consensus after the consultation?” Gu Changsheng’s face darkened as he glanced at everyone present, “In the face of life and death, you give up without trying your best. Is this your medical ethics?”

Gu Changsheng’s words made everyone feel ashamed, and they all lowered their heads in embarrassment.

“Lady Changsheng, it’s not that we lack medical ethics, we simply lack the capability!” Hu Yihai hesitated then spoke up first.

“Yes, Lady Changsheng, our medical skills are limited. We fear we are willing but powerless!” Elder Xu also shook his head.

“Lady Changsheng, don’t blame us. Without the Diamonds, we can’t take on such delicate tasks. Lady Changsheng, your medical skills are superb. If there’s another way, just tell us, and we will fully cooperate!”

“Yes! Lady Changsheng, you were able to heal injuries like those of Butcher Wang. Don’t you have a method for this too?”

At this point, hope blazed in the eyes of all the doctors.

Lady Changsheng had always been a miracle worker! She had time and again revolutionized their understanding of medical skills!

While they knew that for Tan Nv inside, no medicine or stone would work, they still privately hoped that Lady Changsheng would take action again! To once again display her exquisite medical skills in front of everyone, to lead them into a different world of medical arts!

Gu Changsheng watched everyone react this way and continued to look at the egg whites coagulating in the bowl.

“Lady Changsheng, you’ve performed surgeries that involved cutting open the abdomen. Can you do it this time too?”

“Lady Changsheng, are you going to open up the patient’s abdomen to take a look? Like how you pulled out the intestines of Butcher Wang?”

“Lady Changsheng…”

“…”

Gu Changsheng listened to the noisy, excited voices around him, but he was not as optimistic as they were.

She was human, ultimately not a god!

Chest-opening surgery posed much greater risks than abdominal surgery. No one understood better than her that it could easily lead to death!

Gu Changsheng gazed intently at the egg whites gradually settling and clarifying in the bowl, a look of hope appearing in her eyes.

“It worked!”

Gu Changsheng exclaimed with delight, excitedly rising from the stone stool.

Serum separator, she could use this to match blood types!

She needed to find enough fresh blood to help Tan Nv through this ordeal, for the chest-opening operation involved opening half the chest, sawing the ribs, and exploring the thoracic organs. Both the steps and the time required were extremely complex. She needed to prepare plenty of fresh blood in case of emergency!

Gu Changsheng looked up at the people standing in the courtyard. There were dozens of doctors from across Liuzhou City, along with the strong men they brought, standing not far away.

These people were the doctors of this era, more likely than others to accept her shocking and unconventional methods.

With a serious expression, Gu Changsheng’s gaze intensely swept over those present and she spoke with emphatic conviction, “I am going to perform a chest-opening surgery on her!”

“Ah!”

“Oh!”

“Really going to cut open?”

“Godfather!”

Gasps of surprise and shock sounded one after another.

They hoped Lady Changsheng could perform another divine skill, but hope and reality were two different things!

That was a living person, a living person! If you open her chest, can she still live?

From ancient times to the present, they had only heard of abdominal surgeries and had only witnessed it once during Butcher Wang’s operation. Now, Lady Changsheng was actually attempting a chest-opening surgery!

That was a real chest opening!

This wasn’t a joke!

At that moment, the facial expressions of the doctors changed continuously, ranging from excited flushed faces to genuine concern and fear…

A chest opening on a living person! How was that different from killing?

Even thinking about it sent chills down their spines, let alone participating! At that moment, many doctors felt a flicker of hesitation in their hearts…

“Without a thirty percent chance, I would not intervene!” Gu Changsheng, astute in thought, recognized their concerns instantly and spoke up, “The patient inside is my guard, and I will take responsibility for her!”

“As you’ve also said earlier, all remedies have failed! So help me try this! If this surgery succeeds, medical science in this world will advance significantly. I have a thirty percent chance of success and one hundred percent confidence in saving her! I, Gu Changsheng, have never had a patient die before me, no matter who it is!”

“Even if Yama Raja wants to take someone from me, they must first ask for my consent! Do you believe in me?”

Gu Changsheng’s voice was filled with unparalleled confidence and arrogance, carrying the haughtiness of a superior looking down upon all beings…

Do you believe in me?

Listening to that statement, the doctors looked at each other, speechless for a moment…

As doctors, their lifelong pursuit was to heal the sick and suffering, to save the people from diseases. Even if they didn’t harbor such grand ambitions, they still maintained a shred of the compassion expected of a doctor!

Medical science in this world would advance significantly!

This was an immense temptation!

Lady Changsheng alone had greatly promoted herbal medicine, vastly improving the medical path of this world.

Now, she was telling them that this time, it might be possible to take a significant step forward in medical science!

For them, it was not just a big step, even a small one could be deadly tempting!

Moreover, it was Lady Changsheng who spoke these words!

The passion in their hearts was immediately ignited! After exchanging glances, everyone’s face flushed with excitement.

Opportunity is always reserved for the bold!

“Lady Changsheng, whatever help you need, just say it!” Hu Yihai clenched his teeth and spoke, his eyes blazing with emotion.

“For the great prosperity of the Medical Path, even if it truly stains my hands with human blood, I accept it. Lady Changsheng, whatever help you need, just command me!”

“Indeed, Lady Changsheng, you may act freely, and we dare not disobey any order! This time, we vow to advance or retreat together with you!”

“…”

As soon as Hu Yihai took the lead, everyone was whipped into a fervor.

Missing such a rare opportunity would lead to lifelong regret!

Gu Changsheng looked solemnly at the group of doctors in front of him, a trace of relief flickering in his eyes.

Yet even so, she wouldn’t naively assume that they could really do as they said and follow her every command…

“I need your blood!” Gu Changsheng declared firmly, looking around at everyone.

“Ah!”

“Oh!”

The crowd, previously fiery with enthusiasm, cried out in shock at her words.

An eerie silence suddenly enveloped the surroundings as everyone looked incredulously at Gu Changsheng in the center.

Gu Changsheng, immovable as a mountain, let them stare at him unflinchingly.

“Lady… Lady Changsheng, did you misspeak?”

“You want our… our blood! If we have no blood, how can we live?”

“Blood is the essence of a person! Lady Changsheng, do not joke about such things!”

“…”

Gu Changsheng watched as the crowd’s expressions changed, her lips curving into a helpless smile.

She knew this would happen!

People of ancient times believed blood to be sacred, the essence of one’s spirit!

Asking for their blood was akin to asking for their lives!

“You heard me right! I need your blood! This is the only way you can help me!” Gu Changsheng declared forcefully, her eyes sweeping across the shocked faces, “I don’t have much time for you to consider, because I’m not sure when Tan Nv’s condition might worsen. I must prepare enough compatible blood before her condition deteriorates!”

“Losing a portion of blood truly won’t be fatal!”

“Think about it, Butcher Wang had his belly slashed open, bled so much, and yet he is still alive, isn’t he?”

“Think again, from childhood to adulthood, which one of you hasn’t shed blood from bumps and bruises? Did you die? If just a little blood could be fatal, how could you possibly be alive and well now?”

“Please believe me, donating blood in appropriate amounts is not only harmless but beneficial to your health!”

“Open chest surgery is unlike any other, I need to open the patient’s chest, saw through her ribs to check if her organs are damaged! In this process, she will lose too much blood!”

“Think about it, how many trauma patients die from excessive blood loss! I’m telling you now, if we find the matching blood type and replenish his lost blood, we have a chance to save them! Would you be willing to try this with me?”

The doctors, upon hearing this, had looks of uncertainty on their faces.

Gu Changsheng’s words had completely shattered their understanding!

People not dying from blood loss? And it’s actually beneficial to the body?

Patients with heavy blood loss can still be replenished with fresh blood?

They suddenly felt their minds weren’t quite adequate!

This was an unheard-of, utterly inconceivable thing! Despite being doctors, they couldn’t accept it.

“Lady Changsheng, are you sure that losing blood really isn’t fatal?” Hu Yihai asked in a pale face, cautiously. He had witnessed Butcher Wang’s surgery firsthand, and thinking about the bleeding still made him dizzy.

Yet Butcher Wang was indeed alive and well! He could butcher pigs and sell meat, as lively as normal!

Therefore, Hu Yihai harbored a slight belief in Gu Changsheng’s words.

Gu Changsheng nodded and spoke more quickly, “I just need to take your blood samples for typing. Only those who are compatible with the patient can donate blood! I will control the amount of donated blood, ensuring it’s completely safe for you!”

“This… this is about exchanging blood… If our donation is safe, doesn’t it mean the patient is just like us, sharing the same blood?” someone else asked.

Gu Changsheng nodded again in response, “Indeed, I will teach you about the issue of blood types later. Saving lives is urgent, I don’t have time to explain too much right now!”

As Gu Changsheng spoke, she cast a worried glance at the tent and then looked toward the top floor of the Book Tower where her foster father lived.

She felt a familiar, powerful presence…

He had come at last…

Though it was already late…

Gu Changsheng shook her head; she didn’t have time to dwell on this now. She had to save Tan Nv, and she was determined to do so!

“I, Gu Changsheng, swear by my name that donating blood will not endanger your lives. Should any mishap occur, I, Gu Changsheng, am willing to compensate with a million in value. With this, can you trust me?”
