While Lin Ni comforted Zhu Yuting, despair filled the depths of her own eyes. The blow she had suffered was even greater than Lin Jinsheng's.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and Lin Ziyi and Ye Tian walked in.
Upon seeing Lin Jinsheng on the hospital bed, Lin Ziyi's heart immediately fluttered.
Seeing her daughter and Ye Tian arrive, Zhu Yuting quickly said, "Ye Tian, quickly take a look at your uncle. The doctor said he's still in critical condition. I'm so worried. Aren't you very skilled in medicine? Is there any way to save him?"
Ye Tian went to Lin Jinsheng's side, took his pulse for a moment, and then frowned, "Uncle, how many types of medicine did he drink?"
Zhu Yuting was taken aback, "Just one."
Ye Tian sighed softly and said, "The medicine was likely a mixture of two types. One of them is a herbicide called Paraquat."
Zhu Yuting trembled all over, "Paraquat! That's the medicine that, once ingested, cannot be cured?"
Ye Tian nodded. Zhu Yuting almost fainted; if Lin Ziyi hadn't supported her, she would have collapsed to the ground.
Lin Ziyi quickly asked, "Tian Ge, can he still be treated?"
Ye Tian replied, "I will do my best."
He asked the three women to help him turn Lin Jinsheng over. Ye Tian then employed his immortal needles to clear the meridians and wrote out a prescription, asking Lin Ni to fetch the medicine from the pharmacy.
Midway through the acupuncture, a doctor, accompanied by an attendant, walked in. Seeing the scene, he became furious, "What are you doing?"
Lin Ziyi quickly said, "Doctor, my boyfriend is treating my father."
The doctor sneered, "If you have the ability to rescue him, why are you here at our hospital?"
He turned to his attendant and said, "Record this. If this patient dies, our hospital will not be held responsible."
The attendant immediately took out his phone to film. Ye Tian, without looking up, said calmly, "Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Ye Tian."
The doctor's face, halfway through its expression of mockery, suddenly froze. He exclaimed, "The divine doctor from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital!"
Ye Tian continued, "Don't disturb me, I am detoxifying. If you want to watch, then watch quietly from the side."
Ye Tian's fame was so immense that even the hospital director personally invited him, even organizing medical experts from the First Hospital to observe and learn.
This group immediately lost their arrogance. In front of their peers, strong professional skills earned respect, regardless of money or age.
With the group observing, Ye Tian continued his acupuncture.
Shortly after, the director of the First Hospital received a call and rushed over. This grand display astonished Zhu Yuting; had Ye Tian's fame grown so much?
The hospital director, in his fifties, merely stepped forward and exchanged a few quiet pleasantries before also standing by quietly to watch Ye Tian treat the patient.
Finally, a doctor dared to ask, "Dr. Ye, what is the principle behind this acupuncture detoxification?"
Ye Tian explained, "The liver possesses extremely strong detoxification capabilities. The function of acupuncture is to enhance the liver's detoxification ability by tens or even hundreds of times in a short period. Of course, this consumes a lot of the patient's stamina, so it must be supplemented with medication."
Another doctor asked, "The poison in the patient is very complex; we are still testing it. How did you determine it?"
Ye Tian replied, "One of them is Paraquat, and the other is an organophosphate pesticide. The former destroys human cells, while the latter causes acute neurotoxicity."
What Ye Tian said were all Western medical terms, which these individuals understood immediately.
He continued, "I determined it by the smell of the toxins expelled from the patient's breath. As doctors, we must be familiar with mainstream poisons to quickly identify them."
Everyone was stunned. There were thousands of poisons; who could achieve this?
A female doctor asked curiously, "Dr. Ye, how many types of poisons can you identify?"
Ye Tian stated, "The poisons in the world, broadly classified, fall into forty-two categories; in finer classifications, there are about one hundred and seventy-four. I can identify both broad and fine categories. Even if I don't know the specific name of a poison, I can promptly devise a detoxification plan. Of course, for some special poisons, dedicated research is still required; there are about three thousand five hundred and eighty-one such poisons."
The crowd was astonished. Even advanced instruments might not be able to identify so many types of poisons.
