Chapter 32: Chapter 31: Infusion Therapy
Throughout the process of the light magic healing, Yun Sheng watched silently from the side.
When Yang Da Magic Guide tauntingly suggested she take over the next step of the treatnt, she didn't balk in the slightest.
With a crisp voice, she instructed two villagers who carried the village chief in: "Uncle Li, prepare for
a few clean, thin reed poles, so bamboo sections as thick as an arm, and so top-quality burning alcohol."
"Uncle Zhao, prepare for
salt and sugar, a large amount of warm water, and a few pieces of White Creek Stone."
What Yun Sheng was asking for seed to have nothing to do with the treatnt.
Great Mage Yang sneered from the side, curious to see what sort of uproar Yun Sheng could cause.
At this mont, Ye Beiming had also co out from inside the house, having heard the earlier argunt between Yun Sheng and Great Mage Yang.
She, fully aware that Great Mage Yang was a dangerous Black Mage, still insisted on contending with him.
That night, she proclaid, "Under my care, Yun Sheng, there has never been a patient I couldn't heal."
Her confidence and arrogance, where did they stem from? She was just a six-year-old girl.
The items Yun Sheng requested were quickly prepared. Outside the Magic Temple, everyone including Granny Liu anxiously awaited the results of the village chief's treatnt.
The villagers who had brought back the village chief were also filled with confusion.
When the village chief was injured, they had also sought out a pharmacist from Taishang Town, almost all of whom, like Great Mage Yang, said he was beyond help.
Could they really entrust the life and death of the village chief to a six-year-old girl?
Could a miracle truly happen?
Inside the Magic Temple, Yun Sheng was already fully ard; this ti, the treatnt was much more difficult than the one dealing with the Double-headed Dog.
The task at hand for Yun Sheng surpassed the understanding of the Wuji Continent.
Luckily, there were only four people present inside the Magic Temple.
The two villagers were clueless about dical skills. Great Mage Yang knew about magic healing and magic dicine but had little knowledge of Ancient dical Skill. As for Ye Beiming, he was blind, and Yun Sheng had already thought that, if worse ca to worst, she could claim this set of dical skills was passed down from her mother.
Yun Sheng took out a set of Bone Needles that she carried with her and that uniquely shaped Beast Bone Scalpel.
Great Mage Yang raised an eyebrow but did not show too much concern.
Just as Yun Sheng thought, Ancient dical Skill and magic healing were worlds apart. For thousands of years, although both vied and competed with each other, no mage or doctor had truly crossed over to understand the other.
Yun Sheng mixed the salt and sugar together with the powdered White Creek Stone. (White Creek Stone is a special ferntation stone used to make various pastries by commoners on the Wuji Continent, containing elents of sodium hydrogen carbonate, modernly known as baking soda.)
Dehydration is extrely dangerous on the Wuji Continent, curable only by a Holy Magic Master who is proficient in water elent high-level magic.
But Holy Magic Masters of such rank, let alone in a Banana Leaf Village, there are only a few within an entire country. These individuals have long been ennobled and would certainly not venture to a remote place like Banana Leaf Village to treat commoners.
Therefore, Great Mage Yang had pronounced the village chief beyond saving.
What kind of redy could be concocted from just salt, sugar, and mineral powder?
Was there such an ingredient in ancient dicine?
Great Mage Yang watched as Yun Sheng first fed the village chief a few mouthfuls of a dicinal solution, but she quickly gave up on feeding.
Because Yun Sheng noticed that the village chief's pupils had already begun to dilate, his breathing was chaotic, and his pulse was weakening—a sign of severe dehydration leading to organ failure.
Oral rehydration with a solution of salt and glucose was no longer sufficient, Yun Sheng had already prepared for the worst.
She quickly laid the village chief down on his back, took a segnt of bamboo sealed at both ends but with a hole drilled through it, and a supple reed, connecting the two to form a makeshift IV.
Severe dehydration required intravenous rehydration.
Direct fluid replacent was the only option now. Yun Sheng's beautiful eyebrows knit together as her slender fingers tightly grasped the syringe. The Marrow Jade Technique in her began to activate, silently channeling her inner strength into the supple reed.
The reed imdiately tensed up like a tal needle and penetrated the village chief's vein.
Under the effect of the Marrow Jade Technique, the glucose and salt solution inside the bamboo quickly replenished the water lost from the village chief's body through his veins.
After the injection of the salt and glucose solution from the bamboo, the village chief's pulse gradually stabilized. His chest, which was previously barely rising, now undulated much more noticeably, and his pale lips also slowly regained so color.
When the village chief opened his eyes with difficulty and issued a weak call: "Sheng, is that you?"
Yun Sheng's hand that held the IV trembled slightly.
The most difficult mont had passed; for the remaining internal injuries, she just needed to administer the dical Soul Divine Needle several tis afterwards.
Sweat-covered cheeks now showcased dimples as she leaned down and whispered into the village chief's ear, "Welco back, village chief."
Great Mage Yang stood dumbfounded, while two villagers from Ye Beiming Temple were instantly overjoyed. One stepped forward to check, and the other rushed out to inform the rest of the villagers of the good news.
Shortly after, the temple was filled with the din of voices. The villagers surged in like a tide, the doors of the temple shaking and nearly collapsing under their pressure.
Granny Liu, staggering, was helped in. Upon seeing the awakened village chief, she burst into tears.
Yun Sheng signaled to the villagers to not disturb the village chief's rest, as he still needed quiet recuperation.
Granny Liu approached the village chief, their two pairs of hands weathered with years of toil, tightly clasped together, just as they had promised years ago—to stay together in Banana Leaf Village until their hair turned white with age.
Yun Sheng's success ant Great Mage Yang's failure.
Even though he expended mana to treat the village chief, in the eyes of the villagers of Banana Leaf Village, it wasn't him who saved the village chief, but Yun Sheng.
Great Mage Yang, witnessing this scene filled with envy and resentnt, glanced at Yun Sheng and said only a few words, "Good, very good, we shall see."
Yun Sheng stepped aside, like a bystander, quietly observing, as if the person who had just perford the dical procedure and saved lives wasn't her at all.
This surgery, for Yun Sheng, wasn't without gains.
She felt her Marrow Jade Technique had improved during the treatnt, and her other cultivation techniques had also improved to various extents.
dical skill and the Yan Family's Family Inheritance Technique indeed complented each other.
Yun Sheng might seem indifferent, but if soone were to look into her eyes at that mont, they would certainly discover a clue.
Her gaze was focused and restrained, like a demon beast that had been gathering strength for a long ti.
The village chief's injuries would not be suffered in vain.
The people of Huoyan Village would surely pay a blood debt in blood!
