Chapter 817 - 818: An Unexpected Outcome
The speed at which the Golden Silkworm Gu corrodes toxins is faster than silver needles, but it isn’t comprehensive, and it can only absorb most of them.
For the remaining small portion, silver needles can be used to extract it. Soon, half an hour passed, the Golden Silkworm Gu was full, emerged from the boy’s body, and leapt to the side, plump and white, and burped contentedly.
"So cute!" Jiang Tian couldn’t help but exclaim, Nianyang glanced over and couldn’t help but think, if you knew this was a human-eating Gu King, you’d be speechless.
What Nianyang didn’t know was that at the same time, a car suddenly pulled up in front of Tongxin Hall, and several people came down carrying a stretcher. On the stretcher lay a bloodied man, and the leading woman’s face was full of anxiety. She came in and shouted sharply, "Doctor, doctor, come quickly and save my husband!"
Nianyang was performing surgery, so it was Ma Shu on duty who went over to ask about the situation. The woman said, "My husband was in a car accident, please save him!"
Ma Shu examined her husband and shook his head regretfully, "Your husband’s arms and legs are already severely fractured and need immediate amputation surgery at the hospital, or he won’t survive the day."
"Amputation? How is it always amputation?" The woman was furious, "I’ve been to so many hospitals, and they all say my husband needs an amputation. If he loses his arms and legs, what kind of person is he? He’d be just a human stick!"
Ma Shu understood that the woman’s husband’s accident and her anxiety and concern were to be expected, but her tone still made him a bit angry.
He was stating facts, not causing her husband’s accident, yet she was so authoritative, acting as if she was someone important!
Ma Shu maintained a polite attitude with a cold face and said, "The hospital’s diagnosis is my conclusion, and if you don’t believe it, you can switch to another hospital; it’s not just me saying this!"
"What is your attitude?" The woman was so angry her face turned pale. She pointed at Ma Shu and yelled, "You’re a doctor. How can you not save people? Is this your medical ethics? Do you believe that I can shut down this hospital of yours?"
Ma Shu’s tone was very poor, "I am a doctor, not an Immortal. If it can be saved, I’ll save it. If you want me to save him, the outcome is amputation. You carefully consider that your husband is severely infected, and if delayed, even amputation will not save him."
The woman tightly clenched her fists and said angrily, "I can’t let my husband be amputated. What will he do for the rest of his life? You say it so easily."
Hmm, but what does it have to do with him?
Ma Shu was speechless for a moment, knowing this woman was unreasonable, so he didn’t speak further. Actually, he knew if Nianyang were here, it definitely could be saved, but Nianyang was still in the operating room treating that boy, nowhere near having the time or energy to operate on this person.
The woman pointed at Ma Shu, "I know you can’t save him, but doesn’t this hospital also have a female Divine Doctor?
I’ve heard she saved that dying mother from the Shi Family and is apprenticed to Elder Wen of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family; she must have a way to save my husband. Where is the female Divine Doctor? Call her out for me!
She managed to save an old lady, so she can definitely save my husband too. If she can’t, I’ll hold you accountable!"
Ma Shu couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Though he’d seen shameless patients many times, every time he encountered one, he couldn’t help but get angry.
