...

Midday. The scorching sun shines through the windows of the patient room, and even if the air conditioner is running at full power, it still can't stop the temperature in the room from rising.

In front of the hospital bed, I was very anxious and I paced back and forth beside Zhao Ting. I don't know if I was anxious or the temperature was hot, sweat was constantly dripping from my forehead, my eyes were bloodshot, and even everything in front of me turned red.

Lanzhi has been walking for more than two hours. But not only did she not bring the person I wanted, but she also didn't hear from her. Procrastinating, it's really unreliable than that Sister Feng.

"Forget it, don't wait. ”

"Squeak. ”

Just as I was about to go out and find someone on my own, the door to my room was quietly pushed open.

A woman in a green tracksuit appeared in front of me. The woman was in her twenties and held a wooden barrel the size of a washbasin. The barrel is also covered with a lid. And the most eye-catching thing is the long hair about the same height, jet-black, giving people the feeling of wearing a wig.

"'Ji Ying?' Is that you?" I asked tentatively.

The woman in tracksuit nodded, and walked towards me with a steady step. I looked at her in amazement, remembering the last time we met, she was still on crutches. How about this time?

"It was the second lady who paid for the surgery for me, otherwise how could I stand up again. As if seeing my doubts, Ji Ying nodded and explained.

I was stunned, so I patted Ji Ying on the shoulder, "Okay, it's good to recover." Let's talk about it later. I called you this time to save my sister Ting's life. ”

Ji Ying smiled in embarrassment. But he still patted the barrel in his hand, as if he knew everything, and said, "Understood." It took some time to boil the medicine, but it should still be in time. ”

After speaking, Ji Ying came to the bed to check the "pulse" for Zhao Ting. But as soon as the two of them came into contact, they fell into a long silence as if petrified. And as time went by, the expression on Ji Ying's face became more and more solemn.

"I don't understand the theories of Western medicine. But in the eyes of our Chinese medicine, Miss Wu's symptoms belong to 'qi and blood stasis. It is a blockage of blood vessels caused by various external forces. This situation is very dangerous. Once the arteries of the heart are blocked, even Hua Tuo is alive and unable to do anything. Ji Ying explained while taking the pulse.

"I don't understand these theories. I just want to know how to save the lives of Zhao Ting's mother and son. I said impatiently.

Ji Ying sighed, looking at me with anxiety in her eyes, "I'm not completely sure. ”

I lay on the bed and kissed Zhao Ting's forehead lightly, "Even if there is a chance, I will never give up." ”

Ji Ying pursed her lips, took out the silver needle from her body, and pricked a few needles in Zhao Ting's wrist. Zhao Ting snorted lightly and gradually woke up.

"Hello Miss Five. Ji Ying saw Zhao Ting open her eyes and hurriedly bowed.

Zhao Ting rubbed her forehead, "You're here." Have a seat. ”

I looked at the two of them suspiciously. They seemed to have only met once, but now they felt familiar.

Ji Ying looked at me meaningfully, "As early as the 'Ancient Capital Dynasty' in Hecheng, I could see that the relationship between Fifth Miss and Mr. Dream was not ordinary. I didn't expect you to be husband and wife. ”

"That's not what you should ask. Zhao Ting was noncommittal, looking at Ji Ying's eyes with a slight softness. I know Zhao Ting very well. The more she loses her temper with people, the more she treats them as friends. But if you are gentle with someone for no reason, then the other person's situation must not be good.

I interrupted the meaningful conversation, "Okay, let's talk about it later." Let's take a look at Zhao Ting's situation first. Didn't Ji Ying bring medicine? Give it to Zhao Ting to drink now. ”

Ji Ying hugged the wooden barrel he brought, and said with some embarrassment, "The medicine was brought, but it wasn't drunk." ”

After speaking, Ji Ying shook his head, and his long black hair suddenly stood up one by one. Then I saw that the "long hair" seemed to be spiritually probed into the gap of the lid of the barrel, and with a "bang", the lid was pulled off.

The word "pull" is used because of the high pressure inside the barrel. The lid is very tight. The whole barrel is like a large vacuum can.

"What are you?" I asked, confused.

Ji Ying shook the barrel, and there was a crisp sound of "stones" hitting each other in the barrel.

"Do you want to invite me to eat stones?" Zhao Ting asked with a gloomy face.

Ji Ying shook his head, "It's not a stone, it's an air-dried 'corn' seed. But now they have no moisture, and they are about the same as small stones. ”

"Doctor Immortal Ji, don't whet people's appetites, how are you going to heal the disease?" I asked anxiously.

Ji Ying pursed her lips and chuckled, "This method is very special. It just needs your cooperation. ”

...

In the silent ward, Zhao Ting held my arm and stood up with difficulty. In front of her was the barrel that Ji Ying had brought.

"Want to step on it?" Zhao Ting looked at Ji Ying with an inquiring gaze.

Ji Ying nodded unquestioningly, "En." ”

My gaze kept wandering over the barrel and Zhao Ting's little feet. "I've never seen such a strange treatment when I've lived so long. ”

Ji Ying reached out and gently stirred the corn seeds in the barrel, "Did you know? Thirty years ago, a fifty-year-old woman had a severe incanched nail. It's the inversion of the toenails, which makes it impossible to wear shoes. But she is now over 80 years old, but she is very energetic, and she has no illness on her body. ”

"What do you want to say?" I asked impatiently.

Ji Ying continued, "The soles of human feet are covered with nerve reflex zones. And the old lady walked barefoot, which happened to massage the rich nerves on the soles of the feet. ”

"So, you want these corn seeds for Zhao Ting's pedicure?" I asked with a grin.

"I've treated these seeds with secret medicines. As long as the fifth lady uses her feet like a garlic pestle, she keeps stepping on it. It is guaranteed to have a miraculous effect of clearing the channels and removing stasis. Ji Ying said with big eyes.

I looked at Zhao Ting with some hesitation. But the latter resolutely gritted his teeth and stepped directly on the angular corn seeds.

As the soles of her feet fell, Zhao Ting's beautiful cheeks also became slightly trembling.

"Sister Ting, how are you feeling?" I asked with some concern. The corn seeds, though not like stones, are also angular. Zhao Ting's soft little feet are really distressing on them.

Zhao Ting shook her head and stepped on the other foot in the barrel as well. But this time, her aching knees were weak and almost fell to the ground.

Ji Ying hurriedly grabbed Zhao Ting's arm and motioned for the latter to continue.

Zhao Ting sighed, lifted her foot again with difficulty, and stepped heavily on the corn seeds in the bucket. I stepped on the spot like this for more than ten minutes. Zhao Ting was already sweating profusely, as if every time she lifted her foot, she would be physically exhausted and faint.

"Fifth Miss, you have to step on the soles of your feet until they get hot. Ji Ying simply knelt on the ground, and used her shoulder to make a cane for Zhao Ting, encouraging her not to give up.

Zhao Ting wiped the sweat from her forehead and nodded.

You must know that the current Zhao Ting is no longer what it used to be. She is no longer a martial arts master who can wield a steel whip and shoot whenever she wants. Rather, it was a frail pregnant woman, a patient with severe pulmonary hypertension. With such a current situation, it is not easy to save the life. Not to mention let her suffer this sin.

"How long are you going to step on it?" I asked worriedly.

Ji Ying's hair, which had already been mopping the floor, gradually reached into the barrel, gently stirring the corn kernels in the barrel. "If you really feel sorry for her, let the medicine I have worked so hard to make. ”

Although everyone understands the truth. But after stepping on it for twenty minutes, Zhao Ting's little feet couldn't be lifted.

"Feeling feverish?" asked Ji Ying.

Zhao Ting shook her head and said with a painful expression, "There is no fever." It's just a little swollen, and my feet are numb, numb and unconscious. ”

Ji Ying was silent for a moment, and after weighing the pros and cons, she still let Zhao Ting rest first, "You don't have to take strong medicine for an emergency. Gradually, maybe it will be better. ”

I hurriedly picked up Zhao Ting and put her on the bed. By this time, her little feet were already red. Although Zhao Ting is not pampered, she is a daughter after all. It is estimated that she has never suffered such a sin.

Ji Ying rubbed Zhao Ting's little feet. After pressing for more than ten minutes, Zhao Ting's expression eased slightly.

"Don't just look at it, rub the other one. Ji Ying gave me a blank look and said.

I woke up from a dream. also grabbed Zhao Ting's little feet and began to rub them. At this time, Ji Ying and I are like two presses, two masters. And Zhao Ting, who was lying on the sickbed, snickered and looked at me for a while, and then fell asleep again.

For the whole afternoon that followed, Ji Ying and I were nervous about giving Zhao Ting an unprofessional pedicure. Fortunately, Zhao Ting's situation has stabilized. The breathing also gradually becomes more even.

Ji Ying breathed a sigh of relief. Carefully put Zhao Ting's little feet on the bed.

"Come out with me. Ji Ying curled the barrel with her hair and whispered into my ear.

I hesitated for a moment. But seeing the opportunity, Ji Ying was full of confidence, and still tiptoed out of the ward with her.

Ji Ying stroked her black hair and crept to sit on a chair in the corridor.

I rubbed Ji Ying's shoulders, and she pinched her forehead with both hands, as if she was very tired.

"Go back and rest. I'll call you something. I whispered.

Ji Ying smiled reluctantly, "I know you have a stomach full of questions, just ask if you want to know anything." ”

"Have you met Zhao Ting in private?" I asked tentatively.

Ji Ying nodded.

"I see that Zhao Ting's attitude towards you is very indifferent, even repulsive. Why?," I asked again.

Ji Ying leaned back and leaned back on the back of the seat, "Because, because, Zhao Ting's mother's personal doctor is me." ”

I looked at her in disbelief, "You?"

Ji Ying waved her hand and spoke to me. It turned out that after Huiwei Group was defeated by "Rest". The only Sun Island project was acquired by the Zhao family.

The city gate caught fire, affecting the fish in the pond. Ji Ying's school has inevitably become the Zhao family's industry. In order to give those more than 200 children a place to go to school and live. Ji Ying can only beg for satisfaction and beg "Rest" for mercy, and the price is herself.

And Zhao Li did not suffer a loss. Gained fame by sponsoring Ji Ying's Hope Primary School. By the way, he also left Ji Ying, a medical immortal. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. Both sides are willing to fight and the other are willing to suffer. To each his own, he takes what he needs.

I turned around and sat down next to her, pulled out a cigarette and put it in my mouth, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Didn't find you a stable backer. ”
