Three Kingdoms: Domination of the World
Chapter 5: 36 Needles to Resurrect the Soul
Suo Chao arrived at the outskirts at lightning speed. He looked around keenly, as if searching for signs of life. Soon, his eyes were drawn to a group of sick people gathered together. They were lying in groups of three or four on a haystack, too weak to move.
Some had been dead for ages, their faces pale as paper, lifeless. The aura of death enveloped these unfortunate people, leaving them filled with endless sorrow and despair. Even more nauseating, the air was filled with a strong, sickening stench of corpses. This stench seemed like a marker of the plague, a reminder of the severity of this disaster.
The stench of corpses permeated the air, invisibly exacerbating the spread of the disease. Every breath carried a potential danger, as if the virus were spreading with the air. Suo Chao couldn't help but frown, a surge of worry welling up in his heart. He knew that if timely measures were not taken, the disease would spread rapidly, threatening even more innocent lives.
Suo Chao took small, firm steps, slowly approaching the few adults who were still conscious. His face was filled with a serious expression, and his eyes revealed a calmness that was unbelievable for his age. He raised his head slightly and straightened his small body. This time, he pondered inwardly, then said with a fierce expression:
"Hello, uncles, aunts, and mothers! I am traveling to Yunyan Town today on the orders of my master Zhang Zhongjing. My master has taught me a good prescription to cure the plague, and I would like to ask for your cooperation, elders."
"My master is an excellent doctor. He couldn't bear to see the people of the world suffer from the epidemic, so he sent me here to cure diseases and save lives." Suo Chao continued.
Zhang Zhongjing, the Medical Sage, began studying medicine at the age of ten, making him probably in his early twenties. Suo Chao wondered if this title would be effective. Zhang Zhongjing had been selected as a Filial and Incorrupt Official and appointed an official in the prefecture. He often treated the common people and earned a reputation for his virtue. He lived in Nieyang County, Nanyang Commandery.
However, Nieyang County in Nanyang Commandery (Zhangzhai Village, Rangdong Town, Dengzhou City, Henan Province) is quite far from here (Fuchun Commandery, Lishui Area, Zhejiang Province). In this era of complete ignorance, not many people knew where Nieyang County was.
When the sick people heard that a doctor was coming, they were shocked and rushed over. But when they looked up and saw that it was a boy, the light in their eyes dimmed again.
"What can such a small kid do?" A person frowned, his eyes full of doubt and disdain, and said with a pout.
"His master's medical skills are outstanding, so this little kid's medical skills should be okay, right?" Another person narrowed his eyes slightly, touched his chin with his hand, and murmured softly with a hint of uncertainty.
Many people are suffering from terminal illnesses and want to try their best to save their lives, said a man with a less serious condition.
"Little brother, you try it first." There was a hint of hesitation and expectation in his tone, and his eyes were fixed on Suo Chao.
At this time, a little girl came to Suo Chao with unsteady steps. Her thin little hands were tightly clutching the corner of her clothes. Her face was full of timidity and hope. She said weakly:
"Little brother, can you really cure us? My parents are sick. It seems that their condition is even worse today. They don't even pay attention to Yu'er! Also, my sister Xiang'er is making a fuss today. Brother, can you really cure them?" Tears flashed in her big eyes, and her voice trembled slightly. She raised her head and looked at Suo Chao with longing eyes.
Yan Yu had so much to say, and she poured out her thoughts and feelings in rapid succession.
"Sister, I have inherited my master's medical skills and can cure this epidemic." Suo Chao straightened his chest, his little face full of confidence, and said to the little girl with a firm gaze.
"That's great, Mom and Dad won't leave Yu'er anymore! We can take care of her now!"
Yu Er's face instantly blossomed with a smile of surprise, and she wanted to jump up with joy, but she was too weak, and instead she accidentally swayed a few times and fell down.
Suo Chao quickly reached out his hand to support her steadily, looking at the lively and smart little girl with gentle eyes, and said softly:
"Sister, please lead the way. I will treat my uncle and aunt right away."
Those with mild symptoms also watched curiously, and some even followed with great interest, gathering together to watch.
Yu'er's father's surname was Yan, and his name was Yan Zhang. He was from the nearby Yanjia Town. He owned a restaurant there. However, after Yan Zhang fell ill, the restaurant closed. His family was also driven out by the town patrol.
His mother, Wu, was dignified, elegant, and refined, no less beautiful than the film and television stars of his past life. She had two daughters, Yanyu and Yanxiang, twins who looked only a year or two older than Suochao.
The Yan family's living standard was still decent, unlike some of their fellow villagers who were emaciated. However, the disease struck like a mountain, and no one expected that their peaceful life would be disrupted by the epidemic.
Yu'er pointed at her parents and little sister lying on the haystack, tears welling in her eyes as she choked and said:
"Brother Divine Doctor, these are my parents. Go and have a look! They haven't paid any attention to Yu'er in a long time. Yu'er is so scared. I'm really worried that my parents will ignore Yu'er once they fall asleep."
Suo Chao understood, as many of his uncles and aunts nearby were in the same situation. They had fallen asleep, or rather, had died, and never woke up again.
"This is my little sister. She seems to ignore me. I'm scared." Yu'er cried and said. At this time, Yu'er's face was covered with tears and snot, and it was a mess.
Suo Chao hurried over and began to feel his pulse. Ever since he had drawn the Tiangang acupuncture technique, Suo Chao's memory had been enriched with a host of miraculous diagnostic and treatment methods. He quickly discovered the cause: complications from a high fever caused by typhoid fever. Without hesitation, he pulled out the Feihe Divine Needle from his system.
Feihe Magic Needle, acupuncture that increases in difficulty with each injection, tailored to the severity of the condition. Suo Chao applied fever-reducing injections to Xiaoxiang'er's Dazhui, Waiguan, Hegu, Sanyinjiao, and Yongquan acupoints. He also sought out Dazhui, Zusanli, and Guanyuan acupoints to dispel the cold.
Soon, Xiao Xiang'er burst into tears. Suo Chao took out a roasted sweet potato from the system space and waved it in front of Xiang'er's eyes. Xiang'er immediately stopped crying and stared at the sweet potato in Suo Chao's hand.
"Brother Miracle Doctor, is Xiang'er okay?" Yu'er asked happily.
"Well! Your sister is no longer in danger. As for you, your symptoms are very mild. Once I give you acupuncture to dispel the cold, you will get better too." Suo Chao comforted.
Ordinary acupuncture naturally does not have such therapeutic effects. Suo Chao used the first 8 of the Tiangang Huihun Needles, and the effect was surprisingly good.
"Speaking of your parents, although their illness is a bit troublesome, I can cure them." Suo Chao continued.
Suo Chao handed the roasted sweet potato to Yu'er and continued:
"Yu'er, I'll help your parents with their treatment first. You can feed your sister something first!"
Yu'er nodded her little head and responded obediently:
"Okay! Thank you, brother, the miracle doctor!"
Suo Chao first took Yu'er's parents' pulses and discovered that their condition had spread to their lungs. This was also the case with other seriously ill patients. The first eight needles weren't enough to completely cure them, so he had to use the last eight needles to replenish Qi and blood and repair the meridians.
Suo Chao shook his arms, gathered his energy, and began to use his hands to treat Yu'er's parents. His hands were nimble, his movements flowing like a crane soaring through the air. When he finished, Suo Chao breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Sister Yu'er, your parents will be waking up soon! I've already cured them! But the epidemic is still raging, and I still need to prepare some medicine to consolidate the effect. Please wait on the side while I go treat other patients."
Yu'er shouted happily:
"Really? Thank you, brother, the miracle doctor!"
The onlookers, who were mildly ill, looked at Yu'er's parents with curiosity. Soon, they finally woke up. The onlookers were amazed. They eagerly sought out Suo Chao, requesting diagnosis and treatment for their families.
"Little doctor, go check on my wife. She seems to be dying."
"Little doctor, this is my son, you must save him!"
"Little Miracle Doctor..."
Suo Chao worked tirelessly from noon until sunset, finally curing all the patients in the suburbs. His body felt like it was falling apart, and his head felt heavy. The patients gathered around him, each one filled with gratitude.
"Little Miracle Doctor, thank you for saving our entire family's lives!"
"Miraculous Doctor Duoduo, you are so amazing! I want to be a doctor when I grow up!"
"A great teacher produces a great student! I never thought a little kid could have such great medical skills."
……
Suo Chao looked at the enthusiastic uncles, aunts, grandpas and aunts, and his face turned red. He said:
"Fellow villagers, this is what I should do! In order to completely eradicate the disease, I hope you can quickly dispose of the rotting corpses nearby to avoid exacerbating the spread of the disease!"
"At the same time, remember to drink boiled water and eat less raw and cold food. The weather is very cold at night, so remember to wear more cold-proof clothes." Suo Chao reminded patiently.
The people around him nodded repeatedly and responded:
"Did everyone hear the young doctor's instructions? Everyone, young and strong, get moving. Let's carry out the young doctor's instructions."
At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the earth, covering it with a light golden hue. Suo Chao stood in the crowd, a pleased smile on his face.
