He Deqiu was a specialist in the combination of TCM and Western Medicine with ample experience. So for him to request for Su Tao's assistance, it must be a tough problem. Since saving a life was akin to putting out a fire, the vehicle that was initially returning to the university immediately turned around and headed for the hospital.

When Su Tao got out of the car, he saw He Deqiu waiting for him so he quickened his pace over.

"Teacher, what's the situation?" Su Tao asked.

"Let us talk as we walk."

He Deqiu gave a glance at Bian Bo, Zhu Ru, and Zhong Yue before he reported the patient's situation to Su Tao.

Meanwhile, Bian Bo and the rest inwardly sighed. From their teacher's attitude, they could tell that not everyone was treated the same.

Only Zhu Ru wasn't surprised by this situation. Although Su Tao was He Deqiu's student, his medical skills and experience have long surpassed the latter.

Only a country with such a unique system like China would have this sort of unusual situation. Even if the student's abilities have surpassed their teacher, they still had to nominally learn under their teacher for academic certificates.

Then again, He Deqiu wasn't the kind of professor that abused his seniority. From his attitude, anyone could tell that he did not consider Su Tao to be his student; on the contrary, he showed respect for the latter.

As He Deqiu led Su Tao to get himself sterilised, everyone was surprised and started to speculate why Su Tao would receive such respect from He Deqiu despite being at such a young age.

Changing into sterilised surgical clothes, Su Tao finally met the patient. The patient was a woman who He Deqiu introduced with a sigh, "The patient's name is Wang Yucheng, and she's only thirteen years old. She has been losing too much blood, and since she has the 'panda blood,' O RH- type, the three bags of blood in the blood bank have all been used, and we're currently trying to find donors. However, the patient has fallen unconscious many times, and her condition is extremely unstable."

Nodding his head, Su Tao took the pulse of the young girl. When he noticed that she was suffering from anemia and had a weak pulse, he instantly knew what was going on.

Opening his medical box, Su Tao retrieved two silver needles and inserted them separately into her forehead and chest.

For physicians, Acute Blood Loss Anemia was a tough problem, while western medicine could resolve it with blood transfusion. Since TCM has been lacking in the theoretical foundation on this factor, they did not have a good solution to deal with this matter.

Acute Blood Loss Anemia and Chronic Blood Loss Anemia were two different concepts. Chronic Blood Loss Anemia was the loss of blood over a long period, and the amount lost wouldn't be high every single time. It's like uterine bleeding that's often seen in women that could be slowly nursed with medication. However, Acute Blood Loss Anemia was when the patient was losing a large amount of blood in a short period, leading to the patient having weak health.

The acupuncture that Su Tao was performing right now was profound. The acupoint on the head was to guarantee the supply of oxygen to her brain. If the brain lacked oxygen, it would lead to a sudden shock, resulting in death. On the other hand, the needle in her chest was to keep her heart circulating. The heart was akin to a water pump that delivered blood to all parts of the body. If too much blood was lost, it would lead to low blood pressure, and that also meant that blood would not be able to circulate throughout the body. Hence, Su Tao made use of his acupuncture to increase the efficiency of her heart in a short period so that the patient would be stabilised with blood supplied to her body.

At the same time, the nurse who was paying attention to the medical apparatuses also noticed something unusual. The weak ECG diagram suddenly increased with high performance so she immediately said, "Professor He, there's a problem. Her ECG diagram isn't normal."

Nodding his head, He Deqiu replied, "Continue to observe and inform me about any changes."

He Deqiu had been researching acupuncture, and he could tell that Su Tao's technique has reached a height that he would never attain in his lifetime.

Gently letting out a breath, Su Tao said, "The patient was handled well in the early stage. If she lost a little more blood, then even I would be helpless."

"What should we do now?" He Deqiu asked.

Knitting his brows together, Su Tao replied, "I suggest not to continue blood transfusion. Instead, we will use medicine to nurse her body. The patient's body has shown a slight response of heating up, and if blood transfusion is continued, it might result in other complications."

After a brief stun, He Deqiu immediately turned to the assistant doctor and asked, "What's the patient's temperature?"

The assistant doctor was shocked and reported, "38°C!"

Locking his brows together, He Deqiu unhappily questioned, "Didn't I instruct you to pay attention to the patient's temperature at all times?"

Lowering his head in guilt, the assistant doctor explained, "I'm sorry. My attention was focused on the ECG diagram earlier."

After that, he immediately glanced at Su Tao with shock. Although this physician was young, his medical skills were too astonishing.

He Deqiu inwardly sighed. If it wasn't for Su Tao's timely reminder, the patient would probably be in a dangerous situation. He Deqiu bitterly smiled. "What should we do next?"

"I'll perform another acupuncture in five minutes to restore the production of blood in her body." Su Tao replied before he took a deep breath and continued, "Regarding this, I will need the consent of her parents."

"Acupuncture generally wouldn't come with any risk, but you need consent for this matter?" He Deqiu curiously asked.

Solemnly nodding his head, Su Tao explained, "The technique I will be using is to stimulate the blood production function in her body. Putting it in a nutshell, it's just like how pigs are injected with steroid hormones to quicken their growth. At the same time, they will hit a limit with the potential in their body being exhausted. The stem cells that produce blood in the body are also limited, and if you finished it, it would be gone. Since she has the 'panda blood,' that means that she will be in grave danger if she suffers from an enormous blood loss in the future."

Understanding the concept, He Deqiu replied, "It should be the same for blood transfusion as well, but it is just to slow down the blood production function in her body."

"There's definitely a difference since that won't have many side effects on the body." Su Tao added.

"Her body has already started to heat up, and she's no longer in a condition for blood transfusion. I believe that her guardians will understand your treatment method." He Deqiu commented.

Thereafter, He Deqiu left the ward with the assistant doctor. Roughly ten-odd minutes later, he returned and nodded his head to Su Tao.

Looking at this matter from another angle, the patient's parents only wanted their daughter to survive at this moment, and they would agree to anything that the doctor suggested.

Receiving the consent, Su Tao started his acupuncture treatment for the patient using the Jueyin Liver Meridian of the Foot. This was the meridian that's responsible for the liver meridian that starts from the Dadun Acupoint located by the nail of the toe.

The blood production system required the liver to be strong since the organ worked by storing and cleansing blood.

Thereafter, Su Tao started to insert needles in the back of the foot, on the Taichong Acupoint that's located between the bones for the first and second toe. This acupoint was mainly used for nourishing the liver by activating the blood storing function.

Thereafter, Su Tao circulated his Qi in the Pishu Acupoint since the production of blood lied in the spleen.

These were just part of the crucial phase of his acupuncture treatment since he still had to bring the patient's body to balance. The Zusanli Acupoints in the two legs to guide the excessive vitality; the Quchi Acupoints in both her arms to circulate blood; the Zhongwan Acupoint on her abdomen to promote appetite.

After all, the human body gets its energy from food, and that went the same for blood as well.

Seeing Su Tao's acupuncture, He Deqiu's brows loosen up and he inwardly sighed. When Su Tao displayed his ability as that of a National Healer, it was a new experience for He Deqiu since he learned many things.

Roughly half an hour later, Su Tao finally breathed out before he smiled. "She will regain her consciousness in roughly five minutes, so prepare some food immediately."

"Food?" He Deqiu was perplexed.

Nodding his head, Su Tao explained, "If she wants to eat, that means that her life is safe. However, I still have to chat with her parents."

At this moment, He Deqiu was in absolute belief of Su Tao's words so he immediately gave out instructions to the assistant doctor, "Ask the canteen immediately if they have Red Dates, Longan, and Tremella Congee. Get them to bring it over immediately."

However, the assistant doctor was baffled as he looked at He Deqiu, feeling doubtful. How could a patient who was suffering from Acute Blood Loss Anemia be treated with just acupuncture and even regain her consciousness to eat?

But since He Deqiu had a high status in the hospital, he could only go and implement the order.

Currently, Wang Yudeng's parents were waiting anxiously outside the ward. When doors of the surgery unit opened, they immediately went up.

"Professor He, how's my daughter?" Wang Yudeng's mother nervously asked as she held onto He Deqiu's hand.

"Your daughter's condition has already been stabilised." He Deqiu removed his mask and pointed at Su Tao. "This is the doctor that treated your daughter, Su Tao. So if you guys have any gratitude that you would like to express, say it to him."

When Wang Yudeng's parents saw Su Tao, they were surprised since they never expected that this young man would be the saviour of their daughter.

At this moment, the assistant doctor came out and reported to He Deqiu in excitement, "The patient has already regained her consciousness and yelled for food."

Turning to look at Su Tao, He Deqiu inwardly sighed since everything was within Su Tao's expectations. At the same time, he was also happy with the effect since he was the one that invited Su Tao over.

"She has already regained her consciousness? Then, can we take a look at our daughter?" Wang Yudeng's mother emotionally said.

"She still has to be put under observation, and Physician Su would like to have a chat with the two of you privately." He Deqiu patiently explained.

"Sure!" Wang Yudeng's mother was very cooperative.

Thus, they came to He Deqiu's office, with Wang Yudeng's parents feeling somewhat nervous.

Pouring a cup of water for the two of them, He Deqiu also felt curious about what Su Tao wanted to speak with them about.

"What I will be saying now will be very important. Are you guys normally so busy with work that both of you practically have no time for your daughter?" Su Tao asked in a grave tone.

"That's right!" Wang Yufeng's father replied with an awkward smile and continued, "We are often working, and we don't have time to play with her."

Nodding his head, Su Tao replied, "Then you guys have to pay more consideration towards her. According to my knowledge, your daughter has severe autism. If it's not managed in time, similar incidents will also occur in the future. Both of you haven't been truthful, right? Wang Yudeng's excessive blood loss is because she tried to commit suicide."
