Chapter 193: New Acupuncture Technique
In contrast to Chen Luo's hostile manner, Dr. Xie was delighted to see Ye Fei and displayed a positive attitude toward him, even being more courteous to him than Chen Luo.
Wei Xinhe, Wei Dongqing, and the other Wei family members were all taken aback by Ye Fei's confident tone, and they all gazed at him puzzledly.
Chen Luo and Dr. Xie are both well-known doctors, which the Wei family was well aware of.
But the disparity in Dr. Xie's attitude toward Ye Fei was baffling.
Wei Dongqing raised an eyebrow. He was aware of Chen Luo and Ye Fei's strained relationship since Chen Luo had casually mentioned it to him while attempting to befriend and compel him that Ye Fei is an extremely dangerous adversary of the Wei family.
"Chen Luo, the patient is of utmost priority, so I won't try to dispute you," Ye Fei replied casually, nodding slightly to Doctor Xie first, "I simply ask that you wait until I have finished treating Senior Wei."
"Hmph! Ye Fei, you didn't step up when he fainted, but now you're here pretending to be a good person," Chen Luo remarked sharply.
The implication of his words couldn't be clearer: he was accusing Ye Fei of not taking action to treat Wei Lao at a vital moment, and he was just now stepping forward.
Chen Luo chuckled deeply and aggressively retorted Ye Fei's words.
Sure enough, everyone in the Wei family frowned slightly when they heard Chen Luo's words.
"Well, when I tried to step forward, you beat me to it, and then when I saw you, I assumed since Mr. Chen is the sole discipline of a renowned miraculous doctor, that you would be able to heal him," Ye Fei said indifferently, then continued, "That's why I stopped in my tracks, but who would have guessed that Mr. Chen couldn't save Wei Lao's life when it mattered the most? You appear to be an incompetent doctor with mediocre capabilities!."
Chen Luo's accusation was swiftly disputed by Ye Fei's words!
In fact, it was a logical conclusion that anybody could reach.
Or, perhaps, is Chen Luo really not the only disciple of the miracle Doctor Wu?
Even though he claimed that Senior Wei's condition could not be treated, it is still an insult to the Genius Doctor Wu's reputation!
Chen Luo looked ashen when he heard what Ye Fei said; he sincerely respected his master, and Ye Fei's remarks just insulted that respect.
Chen Luo felt irritated by the assumption that he was not Doctor Wu's disciple.
But as Ye Fei spoke, he stepped briskly forward, squatted down in front of Senior Wei, and reached out to probe his wrist.
Senior Wei's pulse is faint, practically impossible to detect without careful inspection, and his breathing was strained.
Ye Fei immediately recognized the severity of the situation based on what he observed!
When Chen Luo noticed Ye Fei commencing the medical procedure, he scoffed and turned to Wei Xinhe, "Aunt Wei, I think we should take Wei Luo to the hospital immediately now." The matter is critical, and it cannot be postponed just because of this quack!."
Wei Xinhe was now convinced; after all, the hospital was more dependable than Ye Fei, who knew nothing about first aid or medicine in general.
Dr. Xie, who was standing at Ye Fei's side, spoke at this moment.
"I can attest for this person's medical expertise, Ms. Wei." In fact, his medical abilities far exceed mine. Mr. Ye's acupuncture and moxibustion practices are quite effective. Moreover, the ambulance is still a few minutes away and they need time to prepare, so it's best if Mr. Ye tries."
Doctor Ye seems to have taken the initiative to speak for Ye Fei with such tremendous confidence.
Indeed, since Senior Mu's diagnosis and treatment, Ye Fei has demonstrated his incredible skills to Doctor Xie, Huang Zhonglang, and the other great doctors, and when they saw that, they were all full of admiration.
It's also because Ye Fei, who had a strong connection with Dr. Xie at the time, decided to speak for him today.
Wei Xinhe made a decisive choice after hearing Dr. Xie say so, "Mhm, alright then, please go right ahead Mr. Ye."
Dr. Xie seemed to make sense, and she decided to believe him because of his confident attitude.
After all, Dr. Xie has been Senior Wei's personal doctor for many years, and he is also the vice president of Yanjing's medical association, so his recommendations are trustworthy.
Ye Fei smiled slightly, but he couldn't thank Wei Xinhe just now since he was attempting his hardest to save Senior Wei.
Now, it has become a race against time.
Ye Fei had just checked Senior Wei's pulse and inferred what had happened to him.
He experienced a myocardial infarction (heart attack).
This kind of health issue is generally life-threatening and is easily aggravated by arrhythmia, shock, or cardiac failure.
Knowing this, Ye Fei did not hesitate and quickly started treatment, specifically he started to perform a cardiopulmonary resuscitation!
Dr. Xie had previously done cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Wei Lao, but the anticipated result did not occur; moreover, Ye Fei's cardiopulmonary resuscitation method is extremely specialized, but after going with that treatment, the effect was also not satisfactory.
After seeing Senior Wei continuing to close his eyes, Ye Fei then promptly took out the acupuncture needles that Chen Luo had previously inserted.
When Chen Luo saw this, he remarked sharply, "Ye Fei! What exactly are you doing by taking those needles out? I used them to penetrate certain acupuncture sites in order to help Senior Wei by increasing his blood circulation and smoothing out his breathing. So, what's the deal with getting rid of them?."
Ye Fei glanced at him, then concisely replied, "The acupuncture point where you have stabbed does not work, I'm going to re-acupuncture them."
"You bastard!,"Chen Luo snorted heavily.
At the same time, Chen Luo felt extreme joy.
He wanted to see Ye Fei mess up.
If Ye Fei makes a mistake with his treatment, serious repercussions will occur, and when that moment comes, he only needs to instigate a little bit for the entire Wei family to label Ye Fei as an enemy!
With this wishful thinking in Chen Luo's mind, he felt that Ye Fei was finished this time.
Ye Fei didn't know that Chen Luo was thinking about these things, as his mind was fully occupied on trying his best to save Senior Wei!
When a person's breathing and heartbeat stop, they slip into a coma after 30 seconds, and following another 6 minutes, the brain cells die due to a lack of oxygen and continual purging.
As a result, Senior Wei's time to be saved must be completed within 3 minutes.
Although Dr. Xie and Chen Luo assisted in prolonging Wei Luo's illness, it still took them a few minutes, thus Ye Fei needed to act quickly!
He took out Chen Luo's silver needle, hastily sterilized it with alcohol he had on hand, and punctured the meridian points on Wei Luo's body.
Ye Fei's acupuncture technique became even more unique once he improved his medical capabilities, as the approach he utilized was impossible to evaluate after merely seeing it once.
The guest soon saw Ye Fei inserting the needles quickly, accurately, and steadily. His fingertips were twisting the silver needle's tip, and the needles seem to be of varying depths, making his needle application impossible to imitate.
He skillfully inserted the needles into the vital acupuncture points on Wei Lao's body.
Doctor Xie, who was standing nearby, was taken aback and couldn't help but exclaim, "Mr. Ye, your needle application methodology is different from last time; it seems that you have discovered a new acupuncture method!."
