Chapter 776: Life At Stake
Su Wan’s heart suddenly sank. That ominous feeling lingered in her heart, making her feel uncomfortable…
However, what made Su Wan even more worried at this moment was the situation with Jiang Xuecheng.
Su Wan recalled that when she was in university, she had once taken an interest class in wild animals. She recalled what her teacher had said at that time. It seemed that the venomous stinger at the tail of a scorpion was connected to a venom gland, and the venom would seep through to the venomous stinger!
If the venomous stinger was not removed as soon as possible, it would cause the injured to have difficulty breathing, and even cause cardiac paralysis!
This was not a small problem!
After all, it was related to the safety of their lives!
So, should she immediately remove the venomous needle at Jiang Xuecheng’s abdomen and then squeeze out the poisoned blood in Jiang Xuecheng’s abdomen?
Su Wan thought for a moment. She opened the drawer in her room in a panic and searched carefully. Finally, she found a white silk handkerchief that had never been used before.
With a rip, Su Wan tore it into two.
“Wan Wan, what are you doing?”
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan tear off the white handkerchief, his slender brows furrowed slightly.
Su Wan’s delicate brows furrowed slightly. She explained to Jiang Xuecheng and then eagerly tried to open Jiang Xuecheng’s shirt.
“I don’t know how long it will take for the doctor to arrive. I’ll try to remove the venomous stinger first and then help you squeeze out the dirty blood…”
When Jiang Xuecheng heard Su Wan’s words, he immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Wan Wan, don’t mess around. You’re not a professional doctor, so you might not have such precise techniques to remove the stinger for me. It would be bad if it backfires. Besides, this isn’t the wild, so the doctor will definitely be here soon.”
He hurriedly grabbed Su Wan’s hand, his handsome face filled with helplessness.
When Su Wan heard what Jiang Xuecheng said, she finally realized that she had been too anxious. If it was only the two of them in the wild, it would indeed be urgent.
Now that the two of them were in the God’s Palace, the doctor would definitely arrive in a few minutes. She could not be of any help.
Jiang Xuecheng knew that Su Wan was worried about him, and that was why she was so nervous. He looked at Su Wan with a faint smile. Even the sharp pain in his abdomen had eased a lot.
Just as the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from outside the door.
It sounded like there were five or six people.
With a whoosh, Su Wan’s door was opened.
Four or five medical staff in white coats suddenly appeared outside the door. They were all unfamiliar faces. Only the leader, Director Fan, was the one Su Wan was most familiar with.
Director Fan walked up anxiously. When he saw Jiang Xuecheng’s slightly pale handsome face, he immediately let out a cry of surprise.
“Your Highness, are you alright–”
At the same time Director Fan cried out in surprise, the four or five medical staff in white coats also walked in.
Although the layout of Su Wan’s room was exquisite, it was not large after all. With so many people suddenly appearing, it seemed very crowded inside.
Su Wan knew that saving people was more important now. Although she was worried about Jiang Xuecheng, she still silently took six or seven steps back to make room for the medical staff.
Seeing the worried look on Director Fan’s face, Jiang Xuecheng pursed his thin lips and shook his head at Director Fan cleanly.
“I’m fine.”
The leader of the medical staff was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties or forties.
“Your Highness, where is the wound?”
Before Jiang Xuecheng could speak, Su Wan was the first to blurt it out. Her voice was flustered and chaotic.
“The venomous stinger is in his abdomen! Doctor!”
When the accompanying nurses heard Su Wan’s flustered voice, they subconsciously tilted their heads slightly towards her. However, they did not dare to look at her too much.
In fact, Su Wan’s name had spread throughout the God’s Palace. However, Su Wan rarely came out alone. This time, she had disappeared for almost a month for some unknown reason.
Who would have thought that on the first day Su Wan returned, such a thing would happen!
No one present had any problems with their intelligence. The moment Su Wan returned, a venomous scorpion appeared in her room. It was obvious that someone deliberately wanted to harm her.
However, the person who got stung by the scorpion in the end was not Su Wan, but the emperor. This matter would probably become even bigger.
Everyone present had their own plans. Only the middle-aged doctor in the lead had a serious expression. He reached out and unbuttoned the bottom button of Jiang Xuecheng’s shirt.
When he saw the wound, he immediately asked his assistant to pass him a pair of scissors and cut a big hole in the bottom of the shirt to reveal the part of Jiang Xuecheng that had been stung by the scorpion.
“Your Highness, I’ll remove the needle for you. It might be a little painful. Please bear with it.”
As he spoke, the middle-aged doctor cast an inquiring look at Jiang Xuecheng.
Jiang Xuecheng nodded slightly. His expression was very calm and casual, as if he did not care about this little injury.
Only Jiang Xuecheng’s slightly clenched hands revealed that he was not having an easy time at the moment.
After all, that earthy yellow scorpion had a highly toxic body. Although Jiang Xuecheng’s resistance was also strong, the pain that made his nerves tremble was still somewhat unbearable.
Because Su Wan was beside him, he could only try to act more relaxed.
No matter what, Jiang Xuecheng didn’t want Su Wan to be too worried about this.
Su Wan saw the middle-aged doctor slowly approach the injured part of Jiang Xuecheng with a small, delicate knife. Although he hadn’t stabbed it yet, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of trepidation.
It was all because of her.
If Jiang Xuecheng had not been protecting her, he would not have been stung by that scorpion.
In less than two or three seconds, Su Wan saw that the small knife had already pierced into Jiang Xuecheng’s abdomen. After all, the doctor was a professional, and his technique was experienced and unique.
Su Wan could not bear to watch anymore. She reached out her hand to cover her eyes, but if she did not watch the process, Su Wan would feel even more worried.
She just had to cover her mouth tightly to prevent herself from crying, so as not to affect the doctor’s professional performance.
The middle-aged doctor carefully used the tools to cut a hole in the flesh that had been corroded by the giant scorpion’s venom. Then, he used a clean, thin cloth to take out the venomous stinger.
Because of the procedure of taking out the stinger, Jiang Xuecheng’s face had turned pale, and the color on his face had faded.
He frowned sullenly. The pain in his heart made Jiang Xuecheng’s vision blur.
The middle-aged doctor saw that Jiang Xuecheng did not even groan. He could not help but feel some admiration in his heart.
No matter what, the emperor was only a young man in his twenties. It was already very rare for him to have such strong willpower.
He looked at Jiang Xuecheng respectfully and threw the blood-stained stinger to the side.
The stinger fell into the white porcelain plate held by the assistant.
Su Wan was slightly relieved when she saw the stinger was taken out. She saw the attending physician clean his hands and immediately put on gloves to press on Jiang Xuecheng’s abdomen.
After the stinger was removed, the black and red poisoned blood had to be squeezed out before the next step of treatment could be carried out.
The chief physician pressed on the wound and asked Jiang Xuecheng in a low voice.
“Your Highness, what did that venomous scorpion look like? What were its characteristics?”
