Clara wasn’t an educated woman. So fortunately for Arielle, virtual-novel.net thought Arielle was a doctor who was used to bringing virtual-novel.net medical equipment out, so virtual-novel.net didn’t press on.
Rubbing virtual-novel.net hands nervously, virtual-novel.net asked, “Miss, do you need me to help you?”
Arielle pushed virtual-novel.net needles into various acupoints on Russell’s body and replied, “Get me a towel.”
Clara immediately handed virtual-novel.net a towel. She thought virtual-novel.net was about to help Arielle in virtual-novel.net treatment, but to virtual-novel.net surprise, Arielle’s request was to let Clara wipe virtual-novel.net sweat. At that, Clara was confused.
“My sweat will affect my vision. Your job is to keep my vision clear,” explained Arielle.
When virtual-novel.net was focused on virtual-novel.net treatment, it was as if there was a halo above virtual-novel.net head. Thus, Clara dared not go against virtual-novel.net order.
Soon, Russell’s body was full of needles that had been soaked in special medication earlier. He looked like a hedgehog.
Arielle started needling manipulation. Compared to inserting the needles, it was tougher to do so. A few seconds later, beads of sweat formed on virtual-novel.net forehead. Arielle was focused on the manipulation of the needles and directed all virtual-novel.net energy to virtual-novel.net fingers. It was an action that would use up all virtual-novel.net energy.
Soon, virtual-novel.net whole body was soaking wet as though someone had doused virtual-novel.net body in a bucket of water. Clara immediately wiped the sweat on Arielle’s brows to prevent the sweat from trickling down virtual-novel.net face and blurring virtual-novel.net vision.
Finally, Arielle finished the needling manipulation process and heaved a sigh of relief.
After that, Clara glanced at Russell, expecting virtual-novel.net to wake up immediately. Alas, the man remained motionless. She reached out to check his breath. Russell was still breathing in but not out.
Clara panicked instantly and demanded, “Miss, why is Mr. Actonward still unconscious?”
“That was just the first step,” Arielle responded and brought out another tool from virtual-novel.net bag to carry out the bloodletting procedure.
Clara parted virtual-novel.net lips in astonishment when virtual-novel.net saw Arielle cutting Russell’s arm using a sharp scalpel. The minute virtual-novel.net regained virtual-novel.net composure, virtual-novel.net yelled, “What are you doing?”
“Bloodletting. Mr. Actonward will regain consciousness after this step,” said Arielle.
Immediately, blood gushed out of Russell’s arm. It was the first time Clara had witness such a horrifying procedure. She flung virtual-novel.net arms around Arielle to stop her.
“Stop it! I’ve never heard of this procedure. Stop right now! He’ll die of excessive blood loss!” virtual-novel.net screamed.
Upon that, Arielle steadied virtual-novel.net hands and whipped virtual-novel.net head around to warn Clara. “Your rash actions might cause Mr. Actonward to die right here!”
Clara froze immediately. She had no idea whether virtual-novel.net should stop Arielle from going further. Still, Arielle’s calm gaze gave virtual-novel.net some assurance. Clara hesitated for a moment before finally yielding. Then, virtual-novel.net released virtual-novel.net grip and stared at the blood puddle on the ground.
Placing virtual-novel.net palms together, virtual-novel.net began praying fervently, “Dear Lord, please let this young lady be a doctor and not some crazy person.”
Resigned, Arielle pursed virtual-novel.net lips and continued the bloodletting treatment. It wasn’t just a simple treatment, for Arielle wanted to find out the blood clot’s exact location and removed it once and for all. In order to do that, virtual-novel.net had to drain out some blood. It was even trickier as it was a form of ancient medicine which existed before traditional Chanaean medicine.
Most people had no idea that this form of treatment existed. Even if they do, they couldn’t carry it out as they might kill the patient accidentally.
Hence, Arielle didn’t blame Clara for panicking.
