At this moment, an old man carrying a medicine box squeezed out from the crowd and shouted, "I am the doctor in Dejitang in front. Let me see!" He looked serious and walked hurriedly. Soon he came to the little boy with a sore throat.

"From Dejitang? Don't worry! The doctors at Dejitang are all highly skilled in Chinese medicine!"

When the onlookers heard that the old doctor was from Dejitang, they immediately nodded and started talking to him. They all trusted Dejitang very much.

"Yes, I often go to their shop to have my pulse checked and medicine prescribed, and every time the medicine works."

"Ah! Isn't this Doctor Ma from Dejitang? He cured my mother's illness!"

As a doctor, Shen Li also hurried over to check the situation.

At this moment, the little boy had his mouth open, his face was pale, his eyes bulged out, he looked extremely uncomfortable, and he was having difficulty breathing. If he was not treated, he would surely die.

"Doctor, please save my son! He was eating grapes and got a grape seed stuck in his throat!"

A middle-aged woman knelt down with tears on her face and begged for help.

The old man put down his medicine box and waved his hand to dismiss the onlookers: "Everyone, move aside! I have to quickly dig the grape out of the child's throat. Otherwise, the child might die!"

As he spoke, the old man pinched the little boy's jaw and prepared to put his fingers in to dig.

"No!" Shen Li pushed through the crowd and squeezed to the front. "Not only will it not be able to be pulled out, but it will push it in, making it tighter and accelerating the risk of the baby getting stuck!"

"Pick it out or stuff it in and let him swallow it. Both are solutions. Otherwise, it will stay stuck and he will die soon." As he said this, Doctor Ma had already put two fingers into the child's mouth.

He had encountered a situation in the past where a child got stuck in a candied haws fruit while eating it. He had tried to pick it out by scratching it out, but failed. He had to watch helplessly as the child was choked to death by the candied haws fruit.

But this time it was different. This time it was grape seeds. There was a bunch of uneaten grapes next to the child. The grape seeds were not as big as candied haws. Maybe he could pick out the grape seeds this time. Even if he couldn't, he might just stuff them back in.

In short, he didn't want to watch such a young child die in front of him again while he could do nothing.

Shen Li's pupils dilated, and he quickly squatted down and stretched out his hand to stop Doctor Ma: "No!"

Doctor Ma felt a little unhappy when he was stopped by the young man in front of him.

The little boy's life is hanging by a thread now!

"Who are you? Don't stop me from saving people!" Doctor Ma's eyes were wide open with anger.

Shen Li was extremely anxious, but remained calm. "Senior, this will hurt the child! There might be a glimmer of hope if we use other methods!"

"Is there any other way right now?" Doctor Ma said, staring at Shen Li.

At this time, the child's face had become paler and his breathing had become more difficult.

"Let me try." Shen Li didn't bother to explain. She quickly picked up the child, let him lie on her knees, and then patted the child's back hard with the base of her palm.

Once, twice, three times...

Finally, a grape seed was spit out from the child's mouth.

The child is saved!

Everyone cheered and praised Shen Li for his ability.

Doctor Ma was shocked. He looked at Shen Li and was secretly impressed.

"Young man, I am stupid. Today I am grateful to you!" Doctor Ma said ashamedly.

Even if he was asked to pick the grape out, he would not be 100% sure that he could do it. If he watched the child get stuck and die in front of him again, he would definitely feel even more guilty and blame himself.

Shen Li smiled and shook his head, "Senior, you are too kind. I am glad that the child is fine."

At this time, the little boy's mother looked at the grapes spit out on the ground, immediately pulled the child, and knelt down in front of Shen Li with gratitude: "Thank you for saving my life, thank you for saving my life."

"You're welcome. It's just a small favor." Shen Li said with a smile.

Shen Li squatted down again, took the little boy's hand and was about to ask him if he felt any discomfort, when the little boy suddenly vomited, then broke out in sweat and twitched constantly.

"Son, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me..." The woman started crying again in fright.

The noisy crowd quieted down again. Even Doctor Ma stared at the little boy with wide eyes. He had no idea that the boy had another illness.

Shen Li immediately took the little boy's pulse and found it disordered, showing signs of poisoning.

She suddenly recalled that when she ran over just now, she vaguely saw a weeping angel being pulled down, and several leaves were torn. The little boy might have been poisoned by the weeping angel.

Then she looked at the little boy carefully. The corners of his mouth and the backs of his hands were swollen, and some places had even begun to ulcerate. In addition, the little boy was vomiting and convulsing. These were completely consistent with the symptoms of being poisoned by the Weeping Goddess of Mercy toxin!

"What else did he eat besides grapes?" Shen Li turned around and asked the woman.

The woman's eyes were red from crying, her mind was blank. She shook her head, "No, I didn't eat anything... just grapes..."

"Think about it again. Have you come into contact with any green plants? The leaves look like taro leaves, very beautiful..." Shen Li asked.

She wanted to confirm her guess so that she could prescribe the right medicine.

After hearing Shen Li's description, the woman's mind skipped a beat, as if she remembered something.

"Just now... just now... I was walking down the street with my son and passed a shop. There was a lush plant growing in front of the shop. Yes! The leaves looked just like taro leaves. My son thought it looked nice, so he picked one and chewed it for a while before throwing it away." The woman looked up at a nearby spot. "There it is! That's it."

Everyone looked in the direction the woman pointed.

There was indeed a green leaf not far away, but it had been trampled on so hard that it was wrinkled.

"That's right! That's the Dripping Guanyin!" Shen Li said.

"What? Dripping Guanyin? The name sounds very compassionate, is it really poisonous?" Some onlookers exclaimed.

Many people have never heard of the name "Dripping Guanyin" before. When they first hear "Guanyin Guanyin", they think it is the Bodhisattva Guanyin who saves all living beings. Who would have thought that a plant with such a nice name is actually poisonous.

"It's impossible to cure the poison of Dripping Guanyin! This child is definitely dead! Take him home quickly to take care of his funeral." Some knowledgeable onlookers said.

Even Doctor Ma shook his head: "There's nothing we can do. Hurry up and take the child home. Maybe he can catch up and see the rest of the family for the last time."

Although the poison of the weeping angel can be cured, it is only when the poisoning is mild.

It seems that the child's symptoms have now reached a point where they are incurable.

"Young Master, you must have a way, you must have a way... Please save my son, he is still so young. As long as you save him, I will work like a slave for you in the future to repay you, wuwuwu..." The woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Shen Li for help.

Shen Li supported the woman and said, "You're making me dizzy. Let's stop and let me try."
