Elder brother's garrison

Page 2618

This was an unexpected surprise.

Although Xiaobai thinks it's probably not very useful.

……

Treatment has begun.

Nanxing's mother and father clearly didn't believe Xiaobai's explanation, but they also seemed to know that everyone has secrets, so they didn't press further and instead expressed their understanding.

Xiao Bai took out the calligraphy brush and ink she had prepared beforehand. She spread her hand in the air above the patient and extended her spiritual power to quickly examine him.

“Hmm… the gathering points of deep-sea aura are in the chest and brain.” Xiaobai muttered to himself, “Without activating the Admiral Network, the human heart and brain seem to be the places that deep-sea aura likes to go. This person’s symptoms of deep-sea aura infection are milder than expected, because the deep-sea aura in his body has not even filled his heart.”

Xiao Bai's words caused Nan Xing's parents to exchange glances behind them, both of them showing expressions of not understanding.

Xiao Bai didn't explain. She simply picked up a brush, dipped it in ink, wrote a tally mark on the patient's forehead, then put the brush aside and put the ink away.

"Shouldn't you write it on your chest too?" Nanxing's mother asked.

“This level of infection isn’t serious for me. There’s no need to specifically write it on the gathering point. Even if I wrote it anywhere on my body, it would have a similar effect, just a bit slower to take effect.” Xiaobai said while tidying up the items in her hands. “Well… I just checked the lesion out of curiosity, just to see where it was.”

"Oh..." Nanxing's parents nodded subconsciously.

"Did you understand?" Nanxing's mother asked Nanxing's father.

"No."

“I don’t either…” Nanxing’s mother said.

"..." Nanxing's father looked at the patient with admiration. Just after Xiaobai finished writing the tally mark, the cold aura on the patient's body was being dispelled at an almost visible speed, and the mark on his forehead was also shining brightly. "So fast... Our understanding of deep-sea aura is not deep enough, and these things always tend to occupy the brain and heart areas. This is a huge problem for traditional medicine, but for Admiral Lu Lin, it's like the problem is solved with a wave of her hand. It's really hard to know how to evaluate it."

“There are always experts in the world,” Nanxing’s mother said. She then asked Xiaobai, “Professor Bai, is the patient considered recovered now?”

"It's just that the deep-sea aura has been dispelled; the rest still depends on your traditional medicine," Xiaobai said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'll go call the patient's family right away." Nanxing's mother smiled upon hearing this. She reached out and patted Xiaobai's head, her eyes full of affection and pride. "Little Lulin, do you remember what we talked about last time?"

"Huh? What was it again?"

"You're pretending not to understand, aren't you?" Nanxing's mother laughed. "Your Aunt Limu wanted to treat you to dinner last time, but you left because you were busy with your mission. This time you brought your ship girls with you, so your Aunt Limu has to treat you properly. Last time, she left as soon as she heard you were coming, and she kept nagging me for a long time, complaining that I didn't keep you here. I don't want to be bothered by her again."

"Ah... this..." Xiaobai smiled awkwardly, "Well... okay then..."

"It's a promise, isn't it?" Nanxing's mother smiled slightly, patted Xiaobai on the shoulder, and left the ward. "I'm going to call the family."

After watching Nanxing's mother leave, Xiaobai turned her gaze back to Nanxing's father.

"Um... Uncle, I'll go out for a bit too," Xiaobai said to Nanxing's father.

"As the attending physician, aren't you going to stay?"

"I don't look like a doctor at all; I look more like a shaman," Xiaobai sighed. "Besides, I don't like crowds. If more and more people see my face, I won't be able to come over anymore, so I'll head out now."

"what……"

Nanxing's father stared blankly as Xiaobai left the ward.

After leaving the ward, Xiaobai walked alone to a corner of the corridor.

Sure enough, just a few minutes after Xiaobai rested in the corner of the corridor, a series of shouts and footsteps mixed with a woman's sobs came from the other end of the corridor.

The next second, several middle-aged human women with haggard faces ran down from the opposite side, crying and shouting. Behind them were middle-aged men of similar age. The men also walked briskly, their eyes unfocused. In the blink of an eye, they passed the women and quickly arrived at the ward.

A large group of people rushed into the ward.

The ward was quiet for a few seconds.

Subsequently.

With a whoosh.

The ward where Xiaobai had just been staying was suddenly filled with a lot of voices.

"Oh my baby, my son! Oh my god, you're finally alright! I was so worried! Waaaaah!"

"If you die, I won't live either!!!"

"Your aunt is afraid she'll never see you again!!"

"You've always been such a well-behaved child, you should have survived!"

"From now on, you'll be our child's godfather. Our whole family is so grateful to you!"

"Thank you, thank you so much! I... I'm begging you on my knees!!! You saved my child, I'll serve you like a slave from now on!!"

"Miracle doctor, miracle doctor, you are truly miracle doctors!!!"

"Doctor, I'm kowtowing to you! My whole family is kowtowing to you!"

"..."

Xiao Bai hid in the corner of the corridor, watching a group of people pull on Nanxing's father's body. In front of everyone, he cried and laughed, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing and rolling around with tears streaming down his face. This scene made Nanxing's father extremely embarrassed. He could only keep bending over to help the family members and repeating the same phrases over and over again.

Family members also came out from the surrounding wards. They looked at the ward where Nanxing's father was, and as they looked, they couldn't help but feel empathy. They clapped with tears in their eyes.

The scene became exceptionally lively for a time.

Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief and felt fortunate.

You see... it's going to get really lively...

Chapter 3677 The First Patient

Listening to the clear, joyful cries echoing down the corridor, Xiao Bai felt as if he were a chivalrous knight in a novel, someone who helped others without seeking fame, a carefree figure who would leave without a trace after accomplishing his task.

Xiao Bai nodded with satisfaction.

But Nanxing's father, who remained in the ward, seemed to be suffering because of Xiaobai's hands-off management.

Because of Xiaobai's departure, the patients' families who barged into the ward immediately mistook Nanxing's father for the miracle doctor who had personally cured their sons. This group of people excitedly surrounded Nanxing's father, tugging at his clothes as if crying and shouting, loudly wailing words like "peerless miracle doctor" and "Hua Tuo reborn" at him. Interspersed among them were the patients' parents kowtowing and kneeling, leaving Nanxing's father stammering and not knowing what to say.

"Miracle doctor, doctor, you really are a miracle doctor! My son had been given a death sentence by three hospitals, and every one of them told me to prepare for his funeral. It was you guys who saved him!"

"You have given my son a second life; you are the benefactor of our whole family!"

"My son is so pitiful. He's so young, so filial, and gets such good grades. If he dies, I don't want to live anymore—"

"Doctor, to be honest, I've even bought the pesticides. I'm just waiting for the day my son passes away so my husband and I can be with him."

"Doctor, let us kowtow to you!"

The patients' families, with tears streaming down their faces, seemed to have finally found an outlet after enduring long-term, conservative mental torture, and they cried unrestrainedly.

"Actually, it wasn't me who saved your son, he was..."

"And the pesticides should be dealt with quickly..."

Nanxing's father's feeble explanation seemed so insignificant in the face of the emotionally charged family members.

In the end, it was Nanxing's mother who had to rush to the scene.

Seeing Nanxing's father looking helpless as he was surrounded by the patients' families, she immediately knew what had happened. She stepped forward and began to comfort and persuade the agitated family members. Finally, she successfully calmed them down by explaining that "the patient still needs to undergo examinations and we cannot disturb him now."

Xiao Bai stood in the corner of the corridor, watching the family members wipe away their tears as they knelt and kowtowed three times to Nanxing's father before quietly leaving.

The corridor finally returned to a peaceful atmosphere.

In the surrounding wards, the people who came to check on the situation all looked at Nanxing's father with trust before returning to their own wards.

Nanxing's father looked as if all his energy had been drained. He was weak all over and his steps were unsteady. Nanxing's mother pulled him out of the ward and brought him to Xiaobai in the corner of the corridor.

"Uncle and Auntie, has the patient's condition stabilized?"

As soon as Xiaobai saw the two approaching, he immediately smiled and asked them.

"We'll have to wait for the examination to find out the specifics. I've already contacted someone to come over later," Nanxing's mother replied. After saying this, she looked at Xiaobai with an expression that seemed to want to laugh. "You really do like to cause trouble for your uncle."

"I'm not very good at handling those kinds of situations..." Xiaobai said embarrassedly, "Now my uncle is being used as my shield again."

"This isn't a shield, you're just shifting the credit onto someone else." Nanxing's mother reached out and gently poked Xiaobai's forehead with her finger, then placed her palm on Xiaobai's head and rubbed it, saying, "If being a shield is like this, then countless people in the world would probably want to be your shield."

"Aha..." Xiaobai chuckled.

“But your uncle doesn’t want to steal your credit.” Nanxing’s mother glanced back at Nanxing’s father and continued with a smile, “He didn’t have a chance to explain just now, but the correct treating physician will be announced when the official news comes out. Congratulations, Professor Bai has added another successful surgery to his team.”

"Actually, it's okay even if you don't write my name..." Xiaobai murmured.

Xiao Bai doesn't really care whether her name appears on the list of attending physicians... Putting aside the fact that it's a fake name anyway, the main thing is that Xiao Bai has long passed the stage of pursuing empty fame. Her current life is not lacking in money, time, energy, excitement, or emotional value. Compared to being admired and thanked, which are old-fashioned things, Xiao Bai would rather enjoy life quietly.

after all……

If I were to make this doctor's alias more and more famous, how would I ever be able to come to work at the hospital again...?

If one day your identity is accidentally exposed, and someone follows the clues to find out that you were once an admiral and a celebrity agent, then you probably won't be able to keep your secrets.

Xiaobai doesn't like this.

“For a girl your age, most people really can’t be as indifferent to fame and fortune as you.” Nanxing’s mother looked at Xiaobai with admiration, but quickly became firm again, “However, one thing at a time, this time the attending physician’s name will definitely be on your list.”

"Uh...okay."

"Good child." Nanxing's mother smiled. "Things here have been mostly taken care of. Since you don't like being in the public eye, let's go back."

"Oh..." Xiaobai nodded subconsciously.

The three walked towards the end of the corridor.

On the way out of the ward, Xiaobai seemed to have thought of something and spoke to Nanxing's parents.

"Oh...right, uncle and aunt, about the girl I treated here last time..."

"Huh?" Nanxing's parents stopped and looked at Xiaobai with slight surprise. "You want to see her?"

"Uh... no, not really." Xiaobai scratched his head and said with a smile, "I asked Sister Nanxing, and she said that the patient from last time seems to still be hospitalized, so I'm a little worried that something might have happened to her."

“Ah…” Nanxing’s mother nodded, a look of understanding flashing in her eyes, and then nodded, “So you heard about it from Nanxing—it’s true.”

Is her health very poor?

"Ah."

"Could it be that the aura of the deep sea hasn't been completely dispelled yet?"

"Not exactly," Nanxing's mother shook her head. "Your methods are very skillful. After your treatment, there is no longer any trace of deep-sea energy remaining in her body."

"Then she is..."

“It’s some other problem.” Nanxing’s mother sighed as she looked up. “Although the deep-sea aura has been completely expelled, the injuries it caused remain. That poor little girl is still quite young, even still developing, and the deep-sea aura has caused her a lot of irreversible damage…”

Chapter 3678 Vitality

When Nanxing's mother said those words, her voice was full of pity, and her eyes held a hint of heartache.

Perhaps it was because she was a mother herself, but Nanxing's mother seemed to feel a sense of resonance with the little girl who was a patient.

“Irreversible damage…” Xiaobai murmured softly.

“In many ways,” Nanxing’s mother said to Xiaobai. “Although the child is out of danger, she still can’t get out of bed for the time being, and most importantly… she seems very unwilling to communicate with people. Since waking up, she has almost completely refused to communicate with others and just lies in bed in a daze.”

Is this situation considered normal?

“I didn’t study psychology, I’m just a nurse.” Nanxing’s mother smiled wryly, patting Xiaobai’s head. “Do you want to meet her?”

"Eh? Me?"

"Yes, you seem to care about her quite a bit."

"It's not a matter of whether I care or not..." Xiaobai murmured subconsciously, as images flashed through her mind.

Although the little girl was not the patient with the most severe infection of the deep-sea aura that Xiaobai had ever seen, she was definitely the patient who was most ravaged by the deep-sea aura that Xiaobai had ever seen in his life.

Xiao Bai recalled the scene when she first encountered that severely infected person with the deep-sea aura when she came to Shenzhen Hospital to help treat patients. Xiao Bai still clearly remembered that the infected person's whole body was wrapped in mummy-like bandages. Her body was so thin and withered that it resembled firewood. The breath of life flickered on her body like a match about to be extinguished. The strong death aura mixed with the deep-sea aura on her body made it hard to believe that the person lying on the hospital bed was a person.

Xiao Bai only discovered that she was actually a little girl when he was treating her.

"I'm just curious about her current situation because I treated her," Xiaobai interrupted her recollection and said to Nanxing's mother.

“Yes, we often encounter this situation here as well.” Nanxing’s mother nodded and said to Xiaobai, “It’s like planting a seed by the roadside and seeing it sprout and grow. Every time you pass by, you can’t help but want to see how it is growing.”

"So this is what it feels like..."

"So, since you've asked yourself, I'll take you to see him," Nanxing's mother continued. "As that child's attending physician, you are indeed qualified to take a look."

"..."

Xiao Bai blinked and glanced at the stairs leading upstairs.

Xiaobai is thinking.
