Zhou Mian glanced at the three patients, whose wounds were still being cleaned, and calculated the time first , then he patiently explained : “The leaves of the Hong Luo Luo are poisonous, but the stem ends can be extracted and included in medicine for people.”
“Plants can’t save people at all, and they can’t be made into medicine! The plants of the ancient earth could, but the plants of today cannot! Where did Admiral Zhou come to this conclusion from? Which medical book or which expert did say this?”
Zhou Mian paused.
He has the spiritual power that can see through the attributes of anything .
As long as it is a living creature, he can see through it, and for him the structure of plants is much simpler than that of humans, so he can easily decipher them.
This is Zhou Mian’s innate ability, and he doesn’t know why only he could do it, but others couldn’t.
“I…” Zhou Mian frowned slightly, as if thinking about how to explain it.
“Zhou Mian said it was okay.” Cecil stood next to Zhou Mian and directly threw out his trump card: “I’ve tried it. I was poisoned by Anders before but because of Zhou Mian’s medications, I was cured completely.”
“This…” The old doctor, Ford said with a frown: “But no one has used plant therapy since the start of Star Era, and many people have tried and researched it, but still to no avail. This is too risky.”
The nurses treating the other two soldiers also felt that Zhou Mian was talking nonsense. One of the young nurses spoke directly with a strange look: “It couldn’t be to show off in front of Admiral Cecil…”
Zhou Mian lowered his eyes and said, “Then, Does Mr. Ford think that sealing the wound can save the lives of the three of them?”
Although the old doctor was stubborn, he was not stupid. Seeing Zhou Mian’s soft and gentle tone at this moment, he felt that Zhou Mian was strange and after the anger he felt because he thought Zhou Mian wanted to show off in front of Cecil gradually subsided, he shook his head: “No, the chances are weak, we just treat the wound to the best possible condition, and the rest can only be done by the patient himself.”
Zhou Mian glanced at Ellen, euphemistically said: “Since there is no chance of survival, why not just give it a shot?”
“I am a doctor, not a general in war. I will not let you try anything that has never been successful on a patient before, in turn increasing the death and suffering of the patient. “
Yo, what about when I was dying?” Cecil folded his arms and said coolly, “You said the same thing back then, saying that I was hopeless, and I’ll have to cure the poison myself.”
Ford frowned slightly.
Zhou Mian glanced at the two angry young nurses beside him, then looked at the doctor with frowning eyes, and said solemnly: “I’m not trying to show off, and I don’t need to do it when it comes to me and Cecil. If your relationship is good, it is good, and it will continue to be so. Even if you don’t do everything well, you will not be disliked by the other party. I don’t need such fake gestures.”
Cecil raised an eyebrow.
Zhou Mian continued: “Let me make it clear, the three patients are in such a situation now, and everyone knows that Zerg poison will cause the wound to not heal.”
Zhou Mian turned to look at Ellen and said, “Your Highness, The Major Gu will die.”
Ellen’s eyes widened.
“Either he will slowly boil to death like this, or he will be poisoned by my plants, but my plants may also save him, although there was only one case of Cecil before, and Cecil has taken the medications internally, not applied externally. Do you even then still want to? Let Major General Gu give it a try?”
Ford frowned and said, “But if you don’t use plants, there may be a chance for Major General Gu.”
Zhou Mian said, “Do you have a case? Is the patient who is injured like this still alive?”
Ford stroked the beard on his chin and thought, and was about to mention all he could remember one by one when he saw Ellen raise his head and said, “I’m…willing to give it a try.”
“Your Highness, you don’t understand these things. Human life is at stake, so you can’t make a conclusion at will.” Ford shook his head.
Everyone knows that Prince Ellen grew up in a honey pot. He is blessed from a young age. Gu Xingzhi used to protect him, but now even though Gu Xingzhi is out, he is also protected by Cecil and the group of council elders.
“How can I make a conclusion at will! That’s Gu Xingzhi’s life, I care more than you! What do you know… What do you know as an outsider! You don’t know Gu Xingzhi!” Ellen was stimulated by Ford’s words and he jumped up and shouted with red eyes trembling: “Will I make a decision and play with Gu Xingzhi’s life?” .
Ford was frozen in place by the deafening shout, and the other doctors and nurses were also stunned.
“Cecil had an accident before, and you all kept your mouth shut for a long time, babbling that there was no way to save him! Let him fend for himself! Then Admiral Zhou came and saved him.” Ellen sniffed and said, “Now Admiral Zhou’s saying that he can be saved, what qualifications do you have to give advice!”
Ford was quiet for a long time, and then stared: “We are doctors, and a random layman told us to use an unprecedented treatment method, could we let it be blindly used on our patients? It’s a life we’re talking about!”
“Okay! You are doctors, so why can’t you cure Cecil and Gu Xingzhi!”
“…”
There was silence, and Ellen glared at the doctors. , trembling all over.
“Ellen.”
Cecil stepped forward and rubbed Ellen’s shoulders.
Ellen could feel Cecil trying to calm him.
“Do as Admiral Zhou said. Otherwise…” Cecil smiled and whispered: “If something happens to Xingzhi today, none of the medical staff present will be able to escape.”
The corner of Cecil’s mouth lifted and he smiled a little, but his tone was colder than before.
Zhou Mian said to the nurses, “Prepare to soak the herbs!”
Cecil’s meaning was obvious, and there was no need to back down.
All the nurses had to rush to open the box and the herbs came out and were soaked in hot water.
Zhou Mian glanced at Cecil gratefully, and then began to instruct the nurse on the precautions and correct steps.
Cecil said: “Old Ford, I’ll vouch for Zhou Mian. I’ll take care of anything that happens, okay?”
Zhou Mian needs the support of a doctor, otherwise when the main battleship will land in the capital and the patient will be transferred to the hospital’s intensive care unit , there will be more obstacles.
Ford frowned slightly.
Cecil said solemnly: “You know I won’t make fun of Xingzhi’s life, and you also know my attitude towards the soldiers under my command. I’m willing to let Zhou Mian try. First, I have personally experienced the effect, and secondly , though Xing Zhi went through an ominous period he also gathered a lot of good fortune, and I am willing to let him give it a try, since the result is the same if he fails. Ford, if you think about it carefully, you will understand.”
“…” Ford sighed heavily.
For ordinary people, this is like a cult and a drug!
Zhou Mian led the people back and forth, and began to rescue the patients, while Ellen watched anxiously.
Ford glanced at it and shook his head: “Even if I accept it, the people will not accept it. People will die if they eat plants by mistake. This is everyone’s understanding. And the federal people have been tortured by drugs for hundreds of years, and just how many people have been separated and lost because of drugs. How many people were killed by pirates for it? People who are addicted to drugs are obsessed and insane. How can people accept plants, or even Hong Luoluo, can treat a person.”
Cecil was irritated and said, “I don’t care about that. You just tell other people that if there is anything wrong with Zhou Mian, it will be counted on my head. Are you afraid, or is Cecil’s name not enough?”
Ford shook his head and said, “Okay, I’ll write to the Marshal once. I’ll try my best to get the people in the hospital to cooperate when I return to the capital.”
“Thank you.” Cecil smiled and said, “Don’t tell Zhou Mian about this.”
Ford paused, then sighed . Cecil really cares about Zhou Mian.
On the other end, after the herbs were ready, Zhou Mian applied them one by one.
The herbal medicine was originally irritating. After Zhou Mian put the herbal medicine on Gu Xingzhi’s wound, he saw Gu Xingzhi’s whole body twitching, his brows furrowed, and his palms were desperately open.
Looking at Gu Xingzhi’s appearance as if he was suppressing some pain, Ellen glanced at his tightly pursed lips, then at his blood-filled hands, which he desperately opened, took a deep breath and held them up .
so cold.
Ellen stretched out his hand to hold Gu Xingzhi’s hand, but his head was lowered, trying to bury it in his neck, and his shoulders twitched.
But Zhou Mian noticed that Ellen didn’t cry either. In fact, Ellen didn’t cry from beginning to end.
Zhou Mian sighed and paid more attention to the wounds of the three patients.
Ellen just sat on the edge of the bed all night.
During this period, Zhou Mian kept asking the nurse to change the herbs, and the doctor kept making sure that the wound did not deteriorate.
But if the wound doesn’t get worse, but still the soldier can’t hold on and the situation gets worse, the doctor is not an immortal and is unable to control it.
“Didi Di-“
One of the soldiers suddenly started twitching, and even the tube that was inserted into him fell off.
The soldier stared wide-eyed, foamed at the mouth with his mouth open, and then twitched… and lost his breath.
“Di-“
Everyone was stunned.
Not only did the breathing stop suddenly, but even the signs of life stopped unexpectedly. This is good, now even first aid was of no use.
” Su-sure , sure enough!” one of the nurses screamed: “Don’t you still hurry up and take the herbs off from the major general and the adjutants! That’s harmful! It’s harmful!”
The room suddenly became a little chaotic, another nurse also panicked, he reached out his hand to touch Xing Zhi.
“Peng…!”
Cecil quickly stepped forward and kicked the nurse away, without any pity at all, he pulled out a pistol and pointed at the screaming one and shouted, “Calm down all of you!”
…
Suddenly there was silence.
Cecil sneered: “I called the best medical team this time. I didn’t expect the nurses who came here to panic because someone died. What? Don’t people die in your hospital? If they die, you will be in chaos there too, right? ? Ah?!”
Ford paused and whispered, “Sorry, it’s just to train some new blood. Every time I go out on a mission, I bring one or two new people with me, which makes the admiral see a joke now.”
Ford also felt ashamed, and ruthlessly glared at the nurse and told her to get out and wash her face, and calm down.
“Yes, I’m sorry…” The nurse looked at the monitor screen and left with a face about to cry.
Ford shook his head and asked the doctor beside him, “Which department is in charge of this?”
“I don’t know…new faces.”
After that, everyone calmed down and collected the body of the dead soldier under the guidance of Ford.
Seeing that the soldier was carried out covered with a white cloth, Ellen bit his lower lip, closed his eyes and held Gu Xingzhi’s hand tightly.
Zhou Mian stood aside, stuffed his icy hands into his trouser pockets and said calmly: “It’s not because of the herbs, but just like the other two soldiers who couldn’t wait for rescue, they too couldn’t hold on anymore. Everyone’s body functions and the intensity of posioning is different, he has reached his end, and the herbs can’t save him.”
Ellen whispered: “Gu Xingzhi is not an ordinary person, he can…”
Although the medical team was very dissatisfied with Zhou Mian at the moment and lost their trust in his previous words, but Ellen still believed in Zhou Mian, while Cecil was still leaning against the wall with a gun in his hand.
The atmosphere in the room was a little tense.
Just then, Cecil’s terminal rang.
“Admiral.”
It was Casper.
After hearing Casper’s report, Cecil frowned.
——The fact that Admiral Zhou used herbal medicine to treat patients has been exposed. Now that angry people are blocking and demanding an explanation at the airport, Admiral must be careful.
leaked?
Cecil opened the terminal to log in to StarNetwork.
[Hot] Admiral Zhou treated Major General Gu with herbs
[Shocked! 】Admiral Zhou poisoned the soldiers with herbs!
Sure enough, this is the source.
Cecil swiped a little and found that an account suddenly posted a video.
In the video, Zhou Mian and Ford were arguing, saying that his herbs could save people, and then the video changed, and the soldier was convulsing, and then the equipment showed signs of loss of life.
In less than a minute of posting the video, it was as if a missile was dropped directly on Star Network, which made everyone panic.
{Did you see that? ! Do you see it? ! The bloody person behind the video is Major General Gu, and he also has medicinal herbs on him! }
{Will something happen to him then it’s over! He can’t be in trouble! Neither General Cecil of the Federation nor Major General Gu can have an accident! If something goes wrong, the Federation will collapse! }
{What happened to Admiral Zhou? ! Is he an undercover agent sent by Glacier? Is he trying to harm Major General Gu! }
The people were worried that their Major General Gu would be killed and lost their minds.
{impossible! Look at Admiral Zhou’s previous performance. He and Admiral Cecil have such a good relationship and are very nice people. This must be a misunderstanding! Maybe…maybe herbs really work? }
{You cp parties with water in their heads, Major General Gu is dying, and the federation is at stake. Don’t be a CCP at this time! No matter how cute the CP is, you will die! }
{The one upstairs is going to die! Said it was the CP party? Admiral Zhou performed really well before. You can see in the video that Admiral Cecil and His Royal Highness Ellen are obviously very supportive of Admiral Zhou! }
{Wouldn’t that be even more terrifying? ! Those previous performances were to tempt Admiral Cecil, and after winning the admiral’s trust, he began to harm the mainstay of the Federation! You see, now it’s alright, the prince, admiral and young major general of the Federation were all squeezed to death by him. }
{Scaremongering, right? Now that the situation is not clear, you directly slander Admiral Zhou? Admiral Zhou’s character is obvious to all! }
{The situation is not clear enough? Admiral Zhou has already stuffed a harmful plant into Major General Gu’s wound! I wish I could kill him! }
There is a lot of quarrel on the Star Online, some supported Zhou Mian, but more are against it.
Or feared him.
They are afraid that Zhou Mian will spread the cult – plant therapy through these high-level officials, and they are afraid that Major General Gu and others will be poisoned by bad people.
It was also at this moment that Cecil realized a problem.
Zhou Mian’s previous identity.
