Chapter 141 Please, stop messing around.
This is true.
However, Su Niannian can.
Although Su Niannian was a master of traditional Chinese medicine in her previous life, she also performed surgical procedures.
Although even with Su Niannian's surgical skills, it would be difficult to completely remove all the shrapnel, she now has the spiritual spring water.
Su Niannian felt that as long as she opened her chest and used the spiritual spring water to protect her internal organs, she could search for shrapnel fragments with peace of mind.
Of course, this was somewhat risky, since Su Niannian had never done anything like this directly with the spiritual spring water.
But there's just a feeling that the spiritual spring water can do that!
But the old man in front of her seems to be of very unusual status. If Su Niannian completes the surgery and cures the old man's illness, will she expose herself?
But this old man was also an old friend of my maternal grandfather...
For a moment, Su Niannian hesitated.
For some reason, Su Niannian looked at her maternal grandfather.
In that single glance, the old man in the Tang suit saw the shadow of another person in Su Niannian…
In just a moment, the old man in the Tang suit convinced himself that he was overthinking everything.
“Child, I know you’re a good child. If you really know someone who can help my old friend with this surgery, we can give you whatever you want.”
The old man in the Tang suit spoke with great kindness, just like an elder speaking to his own child.
Although the content sounded somewhat official, the tone was very gentle.
Su Niannian thought for a moment.
All three of them focused their attention on Su Niannian.
Seeing Su Niannian's hesitant expression, the old man couldn't help but smile. "Don't make things difficult for a little girl. How old is she? How could she possibly know anyone who can perform surgery?"
"I've done so many things in my life, and living to this day is a stolen life."
"If the King of Hell wants me to die at midnight, how can he let me live until dawn?"
"I'll earn as much as I live each day as I can, so be it." The old man was open-minded and cheerful.
He spent his life on the battlefield, witnessing countless deaths and separations. The fact that he has survived to this day is already a great achievement compared to his brothers who died in battle.
He felt he had gotten his money's worth.
It was a hopeless situation to begin with, so why make things difficult for a little girl?
Su Niannian let out a long sigh of relief upon hearing the old man's words.
It was as if they had made some major decision.
stood up.
“If the old man trusts me, I can do the surgery,” Su Niannian said firmly.
But these words, coming from the mouth of a young girl, have no credibility whatsoever.
Moreover, given the old man's special status, Zhou Qishan dared not let Su Niannian try it.
If it weren't for surgery, it would be fine, but if it were surgery... Zhou Qishan really hesitated.
"You're saying you can perform this surgery?" The old man in the Tang suit was also bewildered.
If Su Niannian knew someone else, it would be worth a try, but to let this little girl do it herself?
The elderly man in the Tang suit also seemed somewhat incredulous.
Although Su Niannian felt very familiar to him, she also gave him the impression of being very reliable and capable.
But he really couldn't believe that such a young girl could perform such a surgical procedure.
"Hahaha! Little girl, how old are you? How dare you say such things? Are you trying to send this old man on his way?" The old man thought Su Niannian was probably joking, so he said it casually.
Su Niannian, on the other hand, looked very serious.
There was absolutely no joking or teasing involved.
"What are the odds of success?" The old man in the Tang suit seemed to have noticed the determination in Su Niannian's eyes.
He became serious and asked a question.
"You're kidding me? You're planning to entrust my old life to this little girl?" The old man pointed to his nose with great insecurity and suspicion.
"Shut up first." The old man in the Tang suit pressed the old man's hand, which was pointing at his nose, down.
She also glared at the old man.
Su Niannian answered cautiously, "I'm about 80% sure!"
Although Su Niannian was absolutely certain in her heart, she couldn't speak so confidently.
Especially after hearing that the old man was a veteran who had spent his life in the military, and with the added connection of being a maternal grandfather, Su Niannian became determined to help the old man with the surgery.
"Old Lu, how about we take a gamble?" The old man in the Tang suit got the 80% success rate from Su Niannian.
For some reason, he believed it.
Even though it was their first meeting, he believed everything this young girl said!
"Old man, what are you joking about?" The old man was taken aback at first, then waved his hand and said with a smile.
But seeing his old friend's serious expression, the old man's smile vanished instantly.
"Are you serious?" At this moment, the old man truly believed that his old friend was actually planning to let this little girl give it a try.
The old man in the Tang suit shifted his gaze from Su Niannian and looked back at his old friend.
A single, unwavering gaze says it all.
The two grew up wearing open-crotch pants and have been friends for life. They can understand each other's thoughts with just a glance.
"Well, it's all free time anyway. Rather than not knowing when I'll die, I might as well give it a try."
"At worst, I'll go down earlier, prepare some food and drink for you over there, and wait for you to come down and find me." The old man laughed frankly.
"???"
"..."
What the hell? ?
Zhou Qishan was dumbfounded.
What? The decision to have Su Niannian have the surgery is just finalized like that?
Zhou Qishan knew that Su Niannian was capable, but even a professional surgeon who had performed hundreds of surgeries wouldn't dare to perform such a complex operation.
This young girl actually dared to go for it?
Although Su Niannian was brought by Zhou Qishan, Zhou Qishan had absolutely no intention of having Su Niannian undergo any surgery.
Zhou Qishan originally intended for Su Niannian to perform acupuncture on the old man and obtain some traditional Chinese medicine to alleviate his pain.
How did it turn into Su Niannian having to perform surgery on the old man?
So, how did these three manage to finalize this matter in just a few words?
Zhou Qishan was completely dumbfounded.
"What time?" This time, it was the old man who asked Su Niannian directly.
"Prepare the operating room, we can start anytime." Su Niannian spoke casually, yet very seriously.
"It's best to go to the city; the equipment there will be better," Su Niannian added.
The equipment we have now is still quite outdated by today's standards.
The city is at least better than the county town.
Su Niannian still needs equipment to see the exact location of the shrapnel fragments.
"Let's do it tomorrow. You'll start fasting tonight," the old man in the Tang suit said to Grandpa Lu.
If the old man hadn't known this guy for so long, he would have definitely thought that the old man was trying to harm him.
"Okay, then tomorrow."
"Xiao Zhou, go and arrange the operating room at the city hospital tomorrow." The old man wasn't afraid at all.
Zhou Qishan was completely dumbfounded.
What is Old Master Lu's status? A matter of life and death, decided so easily?
