The carriage passed through the streets and alleys, and the leader took out a soft leather mask from his arms, handed it to Zuo Shaoyang, took out another set of robes, and said: "I'm sorry, Zuo Gongzi, I have to wronged you to change your outfit and wear this again, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the Zhen family, and so as not to bring trouble to Gongzi in the future." ”

This is the case, the Zhen family was forced to use the Yue Wan Jiashu soup to treat Du Yan's illness, and it actually worked, so they were very protective of themselves, if they went to the true colors, they would definitely arouse the vigilance of the Zhen brothers, but it would affect the effect of this move just in case. And this is in line with Zuo Shaoyang's wish not to meddle in the political struggle, so he took the soft leather mask and put it on, put the robe outside, took a bronze mirror and looked at it, and sure enough, he has become a middle-aged man with a gray beard, but the level of this soft leather mask is average, and he can't look at it up close, and he can't talk or laugh, or it's easy to see the flaws.

After changing his outfit, he almost came to the residence of the Imperial Doctor.

This time, Zuo Shaoyang entered through the back door, and the house was heavily guarded inside and out, and when he arrived at the inner house, he was heavily guarded.

In the waiting room outside the inner house, almost all the civil and military officials came, and the old doctor Zhen Liyan had publicly asserted that the imperial doctor would die at noon today.

The leader of the guards led Zuo Shaoyang all the way to Du Yan's bedroom in the inner house.

There are also a lot of people in the bedroom, judging from the official uniforms, they are all high-ranking officials above the third grade. Sitting or standing, almost all of them have solemn faces. Zhen Liyan and Zhen Quan sat far away in the corner of the room, brushing their beards and expressionless.

Zuo Shaoyang came in after changing his clothes and wearing a mask, and the Zhen brothers and other high-ranking officials in the house didn't know him, and they didn't pay much attention to him when they saw that he was not dressed in officialdom, but maybe some original relative of the Du family.

On a large bed in the room, Du Yan lay motionless, his face was swollen and white, and he looked very scary. With their eyes closed, they could hardly see the gaps, and Du Yin and the other three brothers stood beside them with their hands down, crying and waiting.

After Zuo Shaoyang entered, he stood at the door, observed the situation in the room, slowly paced to the corner of the room in the direction of the bed, and stood with his hands behind his back.

There was a floor curtain here, and there were a few servants standing, so no one noticed him.

There was no sound in the room, waiting for that moment to come.

Finally, there was the sound of cloud boards dotting in the distance, and it was noon!

All the people in the room looked at the old divine doctor Zhen Liyan.

Zhen Liyan slowly stood up, looked at Du Yan, who was upright and motionless, sighed, and said, "Lord Du should have gone to the immortal!" ”

Zuo Shaoyang kept staring at Du Yan, he also wanted to know what would happen, and when he heard this, he was even more frightened, staring at Du Yan's chest, wanting to see if there was any ups and downs in breathing, but because he was covered with a thick silk quilt, he couldn't see it at all.

Du Yin hurriedly bent down and stretched out his finger to try it in front of his father Du Yan's nose, his face changed color, and he cried: "Yes, there is no breath!" ”

Zhen Quan next to him said: "Let the old man take a look." ”

Zhen Quan walked to the bedside, and Du Yin took half a step back and stared at him vigilantly.

Zhen Quan sat down on the edge of the bed, first bent down to probe his nose, then picked up his hand and touched the pulse, sighed, shook his head, thought about it, and said to Du Yin: "Childe, please let me give Master Du a diagnosis of the Zhaoyang pulse." ”

Traditional Chinese medicine cuts the pulse, generally in the wrist and mouth, but for critically ill patients, sometimes the three-part nine-waiting method is used, that is, to diagnose the pulse of the corresponding acupuncture points on the head, neck, wrist and feet.

Du Yin wept and said: "My father has no breath at all, and he has passed away, so Old Doctor Zhen doesn't have to worry about it anymore." ”

Zhen Quan shook his head and said: "The emperor ordered the old brother to treat Lord Du, if you don't see it in person, how can you explain it to the emperor?" ”

Du Yin hesitated for a moment and took a small step back. Zhen Quan lifted the quilt, touched Du Yan's foot Zhaoyang acupoint, for a moment, sighed again, shook his robe, sat sideways on the edge of the bed, put his hands together, looked at Du Yan's swollen face, shook his head again, and then reached out and touched the ear point on the side of Du Yan's neck.

At the moment when Zhen Quan's hand slid across the side of Du Yan's neck, Zuo Shaoyang, who was staring at him intently, keenly captured the faint cold light on the ring finger of Zhen Quan's left hand!

It seems to be the glow of a silver needle!

didn't wait for Zuo Shaoyang to see it clearly, only to see Zhen Quan's ring finger lightning a little, and the light did not enter the side of Du Yan's neck!

Du Yan's body shook slightly, and then he didn't move.

Zhen Quan's fingers were raised, and immediately, the light disappeared, Zhen Quan's fingers still fell on Du Yan's ear acupoint very calmly, and the other hand twisted the white beard, groaning and feeling the pulse.

Zhen Quan's action at this moment, because he blocked Du Yin and the others with his body, and he touched the left side of his neck, and the others were far away, so they couldn't see what he did at all. Although Zuo Shaoyang was in the direction of the head of the bed, his vision was blocked by Du Yan's neck, and he only saw Zhen Quan's fingers trembling.

Zuo Shaoyang secretly screamed that it was not good, the ring worn by Zhen Quan's finger seemed to hide a silver needle, and the place where the silver needle pierced was the vagus nerve on the side of the person's neck!

The vagus nerve controls the human heart, and once it is damaged by an external force, it will cause the heart reflex to stop beating and cause death!

At this time, Zhen Quan stood up and sighed: "Master Du is really immortal!" Condolences change! He shook his head, turned and walked away.

Du Yin glanced at him, there was a look of horror in his eyes, he hurriedly stepped forward, attached himself to touch his father's snort, and then his face changed greatly, and he violently lifted the brocade quilt, ripped off his father Du Yan's robe, and put his ears on his chest, only listened for a moment, Du Yin suddenly raised up, his eyes were full of horror, but he couldn't help but didn't look back, only stared at Zuo Shaoyang who was looking at the head of the bed, and his eyes were full of anxious help.

Zuo Shaoyang's eyes turned in a circle, and then he pouted towards the door. Motioned for him to find a way to get everyone out.

Zuo Shaoyang was sideways, he glanced at Du Yin, most of his body was sideways, and officials such as Zhen Liyan and Zhen Quan couldn't see it at all.

Du Yin understood, and immediately roared: "Dad-!" He turned around sharply, pounced on Zhen Quan and Zhen Liyan, the two old miracle doctors, grabbed one of them by the collar with one hand, and roared wildly: "You two old horsemen, the emperor asked you to save my father, but you watched him die, go!" Let's reason with the emperor! Walk! ”

Du Yin roared angrily and dragged the two of them outside, and there was a sudden chaos in the field, this time there was an accident, the Zhen brothers didn't expect Du Yin to suddenly be angry, and all the anger was sprinkled on the two of them, they all waved their hands in fear to distinguish, Du Yin's two brothers were acting according to Du Yin's eyes, and immediately rushed up to help grab the gray hair and beard of the Zhen brothers, and dragged them out of the door.

The three brothers grabbed the two old men of the Zhen brothers, pushed and shouted in the direction of the gate. Those high-ranking officials didn't listen to the persuasion on the side, and helped the two old doctors to explain, where were the three Du Yin brothers willing to listen, and dragged them all the way out, and all the civil and military officials followed out to persuade them. There were only a few servants and the head of the guard left in the house.

The leader of the guard was a little unaware of what was going on at first, but then he quickly understood, and with a wave of his hand, he called all the servants to go out with him to help the three masters. The servants all went out, and the room was empty for a while, except for Zuo Shaoyang and Du Yan, who was motionless on the bed.

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly came to the side of the bed, pulled Du Yan's head and neck, and sure enough, a very thin needle eye could be faintly seen at the vagus nerve. I was busy with the carotid artery, I couldn't feel the beating, and I listened to the heart sounds, but there was no beating sound. - My heart has stopped!

Judging from the performance of Du Yan's guard leader inviting himself just in case and Du Yan's son Du Yin just now, Du Yan, the imperial historian, must not have died before this. And now, his heartbeat has stopped, and there is only one reason, - the stab of the silver needle in Zhen Quan's finger ring just now!

This silver needle should not be poisonous, because the death of poisoning is easy to see, but the death of the heart arrest cannot be seen from the surface.

This is a very clever method of killing!

If the heart stops beating for more than five minutes, in most cases, people will die immediately due to cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, and even if they are rescued, it will cause irreversible damage to the human brain! The heart must be restored immediately within five minutes!

Zuo Shaoyang hesitated for a moment in his heart, he knew that as long as he took action to save Du Yan's life, he was afraid that he would be trapped in the whirlpool of power struggle and could not get out, but it was not a matter of watching people die in front of him and not saving him, so he had no choice but to make a move!

Zuo Shaoyang had already seen a medical box on the wall, which should have been brought by the Zhen brothers. Immediately stepped forward and opened the box, and sure enough, there was a small box of gold needles for acupuncture inside!

Zuo Shaoyang took the golden needle box, returned to the bedside, took out the golden needle, and his fingers were like electricity, quickly piercing into Du Yan's Baihui, Shenque, and Guan Yuan's acupuncture points. Extracorporeal cardiac compressions are then started.

It only took a moment for Du Yan to let out a long breath.

Breathing is restored! Zuo Shaoyang was overjoyed, a pulse, the pulse had recovered, but the edema made the wrist thicker, if it wasn't for Zuo Shaoyang's careful observation, he couldn't feel the pulse at all. Although the pulse is weak, there is no danger to it.

He leaned over to listen again, and the sound of his heartbeat also rang, because his body was swollen, the heartbeat was very weak, and if he didn't listen carefully, he couldn't hear it.

Du Yan is the cardiac arrest caused by the compression of the vagus nerve, which is much easier to recover from than the cardiac arrest caused by the disease. So Zuo Shaoyang didn't have to work hard, and his heartbeat was restored.

But Du Yan's eyes were still closed, and Zuo Shaoyang didn't respond to calling him in his ear.

Zuo Shaoyang took back the golden needle, put it in the box, and quickly put it back in the first aid kit. Then he turned the window to the outside, closed the window, and went around the side of the house, only to see that the three Du Yin brothers in the courtyard were still scolding and shouting at the Zhen brothers, and they wanted to go to the emperor for comment. All the high-ranking officials gathered around to persuade them.

Zuo Shaoyang quietly came to the crowd and was looking around, when a low voice came from behind him: "Zuo Gongzi, how is it?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang was taken aback, turned his head and saw that it was the leader of the guards who picked him up, looked left and right and no one was paying attention, and said in a low voice: "Okay, the old man is no longer in danger." ”

"Thank you!" The leader remained silent and said in a low voice: "Childe, please go out through the back door, there is a carriage to see you off at the back door." ”
