Chapter 215 The Legend of the Mummy
Mr. Zhang's voice also attracted a lot of medical staff, who gathered in the house.
Director Pan looked at Mr. Zhang, who looked unhappy, and hurried forward to ask with concern, "Calm down, Mr. Zhang. What happened? Why are you so angry? Is there anything we haven't done well enough?"
Xue Wanting stood up and looked at Bai Ningyu, who was lying motionless beside her. Without waiting for Zhang Wansen to speak, she pointed at Bai Ningyu and said, "Did you hear that? Mr. Zhang told you to leave, why are you still hanging around here?"
"A little girl who came from nowhere, so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, brazenly said that she could wake up Lieutenant Colonel Zhang. Look how angry Colonel Zhang is! If she doesn't leave now, I'll call the guards."
Seeing that Bai Ningyu was still standing there with no sign of leaving, Xue Wanting threatened her.
After hearing what Xue Wanting said, Director Pan looked at Bai Ningyu beside him and was about to call the guards.
But after seeing Bai Ningyu's appearance clearly, Director Pan looked at her with some excitement.
Not only Director Pan, but all the medical staff present had their eyes filled with intense excitement and shock.
Then, Mr. Zhang said to Xue Wanting in a cold voice, "I told you to get out."
When Xue Wanting heard this, her arrogant look froze on her face. Her expression suddenly changed and she looked at Mr. Zhang in disbelief.
Still unwilling to give up, he asked, "You want me to leave? Mr. Zhang, are you so angry that you've lost your mind? I'm a doctor at the Saint Medical Hall, and she's just a little girl..."
"Shut up!" Old Master Zhang shouted harshly, "What's so great about a doctor from the Holy Medical Hall? How dare you show off in front of Divine Doctor Bai and me! Director Pan, get someone else immediately. I don't need her to treat my grandson's injuries!"
Xue Wanting was frightened by Mr. Zhang's appearance. She was a little confused and looked at Director Pan helplessly.
But Director Pan waved at her and motioned her to leave.
Xue Wanting had never suffered such an injustice before. With a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, she said, "Director, I cannot obey your actions. I have been the one who treated Lieutenant Colonel Zhang's injuries. I have done nothing wrong. Why are you replacing me? Just because of this little girl?"
Director Pan's expression darkened, and his voice grew colder. "Why? Just because of your arrogant and disrespectful attitude! Xue Wanting, I'm telling you, don't think that just because you're a doctor at Saint Medical Hall and have studied abroad, you can act so disrespectfully in front of me!"
The little girl you are talking about is Bai Ningyu. She is a hero who once saved the entire Chinese nation. How can you interfere here? Go back and reflect on your actions!
When Xue Wanting heard the name Bai Ningyu, her pupils suddenly widened.
She had just returned from abroad and didn't know much about domestic affairs, but Xue Wanting had heard of the name Bai Ningyu.
But she really didn't expect that Bai Ningyu would be so young.
Moreover, I have studied medicine for many years, but I have no way to deal with Colonel Zhang's coma. She actually said such words so easily. What is the point of all my years of study?
Without paying any more attention to Zhang Wanting, Bai Ningyu lifted Zhang Xilin's quilt and unplugged the ECG leads.
A Peiyuan Pill was put into Zhang Xilin's mouth. The pill melted in his mouth, and Zhang Xilin's originally pale face became visibly rosy.
Bai Ningyu took out a silver needle and inserted it into the major acupuncture points on his body with incredible speed.
Director Pan was dumbfounded. He considered himself a leading figure in both Chinese and Western medicine, but he had never seen such a peculiar acupuncture technique.
I just don’t know how effective it is. If it works, I must learn this skill, Director Pan thought to himself.
After a set of smooth acupuncture techniques, Bai Ningyu removed the silver needles for Zhang Xilin.
But the person on the bed showed no signs of waking up, except that his complexion looked a little better.
Xue Wanting, who saw this scene, couldn't help but sneer: "Ms. Bai, didn't you say that Lieutenant Colonel Zhang would wake up in a quarter of an hour? Half an hour has passed, and he still hasn't woken up. You're exaggerating!"
Director Pan felt somewhat disappointed upon seeing this situation, and he also felt that Bai Ningyu was too confident.
Seeing this, if Mr. Zhang said he wasn't depressed, that would be a lie. But on the other hand, if even the genius doctor Xiaobai couldn't do anything, then his grandson would never wake up, right?
Just as everyone fell silent, Bai Ningyu put away the silver needles and raised her eyebrows: "What's the rush? I said a quarter of an hour after the acupuncture, it's not even up yet!"
Xue Wanting's face froze. She looked at her watch. There was indeed less than half a minute left, but so what? Was she still expecting a miracle to happen in this half minute?
In Xue Wanting's eyes, Bai Ningyu's actions were nothing more than a desperate struggle. She looked at Bai Ningyu with contempt, then sneered, "Okay, there's still half a minute. Let's see how long you can keep your stubbornness going."
However, before Xue Wanting finished her words, she heard a young nurse excitedly pointing at the bed and shouting, "He's awake! Lieutenant Colonel Zhang is really awake!"
Old Master Zhang's eyes, which had been drooping, suddenly lifted up, and when he looked at his grandson who had opened his eyes faintly on the bed, his eyes suddenly became moist.
No matter how difficult the war was, he never shed a tear. He never shed a tear when he was seriously injured and almost died. Even when his wife passed away, he just locked himself in the room for three days and three nights without closing his eyes.
But when he saw that his only grandson was between life and death and almost unable to wake up, the old man who had lived for almost a century shed tears of self-blame.
Back then, no one in the family agreed to let Zhang Xilin join the army, but he insisted on letting his only grandson follow in his footsteps.
Now, his high-spirited grandson was not only seriously injured, but also had an arm broken. For the first time, Mr. Zhang felt that his original decision was wrong...
Xue Wanting looked at Zhang Xilin who had woken up, and she was stunned for a moment.
The moment she met Bai Ningyu's gaze, Xue Wanting felt as if her face had been slapped hard, and it was burning with pain.
Seeing this, the medical staff hurriedly gave Zhang Xilin a comprehensive examination.
The leaders who learned the news also rushed over one after another. They were eager to find out the truth about the attack on the warship.
Because during the return voyage, the command center suddenly received a danger distress signal from the warship led by Zhang Xilin.
With the radio receiving strong interference, the only news they received was that they were attacked by unidentified creatures, and the warship completely lost contact on the high seas...
Seeing that there was nothing for her to do, Bai Ningyu said hello to Mr. Zhang and left.
Less than half an hour after Bai Ningyu returned home, Li Shang called: "Host, Sky Island is planning to hold a large auction in ten days. Items that can be auctioned at Sky Sea are definitely rare treasures in the world. I wonder if you are interested in visiting Sky Island?"
According to Li Shang, Sky Island is an island south of the South China Sea. The owner of Sky Island is very mysterious and has very strong power.
The auction on Sky Island is held irregularly, perhaps once every three to five years, or once every ten years or more.
They don't care whether the auction items come from legitimate sources or whether the buyers can leave safely; they just focus on the auction.
The conditions for entering the Sky Island are extremely harsh. Either your assets must meet their standards, or you must have a high enough status in the political and business circles.
Moreover, the trading currency of Sky Island is spirit stones. One top-grade spirit stone is equal to ten medium-grade spirit stones, and one medium-grade spirit stone is equal to ten low-grade spirit stones. The highest bidder wins.
They would use this as a basis to issue invitations. One invitation could bring three people in. The Li family also received an invitation, so Li Shang thought about asking Bai Ningyu if she wanted to go with them.
As he spoke, Li Shang read out the treasure that had already been made public.
After hearing this, Bai Ningyu was a little uninterested, but Li Shang said that the highlight of this auction was a mummy.
This mummy was salvaged from the sea. According to legend, whoever gets it will become unlucky, as if cursed.
Since this mummy was discovered in the 18th century, it has attracted countless collectors.
But without exception, these collectors died miserably.
Even so, there are still many people who like to explore the unknown and are obsessed with this mummy.
This mummy changed many owners because of this. During a sea voyage in the 19th century, she and a ship full of people were completely submerged in the high seas and disappeared.
