Chapter 191 Life-saving Medicine

Shen Zhiyi couldn't accept the outcome the doctor told him.

His hands tightened uncontrollably, hugging Tao Jiuxi's delicate body even tighter, as if only in this way could he save her life.

Seeing this, the doctor didn't dare to say another word and had to focus all his attention on Tao Jiuxi's pulse again.

His brows were furrowed, and he silently prayed for a miracle to happen, because he knew clearly that if he could not save the girl, the man in front of him who was on the verge of collapse would most likely be consumed by anger and grief and do unpredictable and terrible things.

However, time passed slowly in this suffocating silence, and after taking the patient's pulse for a long time, the situation still did not improve at all.

Just at this moment, Ji Qingyi came back.

When he went out, he saw the person he had sent out earlier leading several doctors. After asking, he led the most experienced one to Tao Jiuxi's room.

When the doctor saw the person coming, he turned around and looked at Ji Qingyi as if asking for help.

"Doctor, there is a patient next door. Please go and see him."

Ji Qingyi said softly, signaling the doctor who was taking the patient's pulse to get up and go to another room to take the patient's pulse.

Upon hearing this, the doctor immediately stood up and fled away.

"Doctor Li, please come and see me again." Ji Qingyi made a gesture of invitation to the doctor beside him.

Doctor Li immediately stepped forward and put his hand on Tao Jiuxi's wrist.

After a moment, his expression became more solemn, and his pulse was still lifeless, like a pool of stagnant water.

Doctor Li secretly glanced at the silent man in front of him, and felt a chill in his heart. He did not dare to respond, but just looked back at Ji Qingyi helplessly.

"Doctor, please take another look. Our medicine will be delivered soon." Ji Qingyi tried to grasp this last hope.

"Young Master, to be honest, even if a great immortal came here, it would be difficult to..." The doctor sighed helplessly, his voice low and hoarse.

When Shen Zhiyi heard this, the remaining light in his eyes instantly went out like a candle in the wind.

He just stared at the doctor, his eyes filled with endless despair and disbelief, as if what the doctor said was the most absurd lie in the world, and he refused to accept this cruel reality.

"No..." After a long time, Shen Zhiyi squeezed out a low and hoarse word from his throat.

He slowly lowered his head, the bloodshot in his eyes becoming more and more obvious. He looked at Tao Jiuxi's pale face in his arms and gently stroked her hair. "You won't leave me, Jiuxi."

Shen Zhiyi stepped forward and grabbed the doctor's arm, just as he was about to withdraw it: "Save her, save her."

Ji Qingyi frowned, he knew very well that Shen Zhiyi must be on the verge of collapse at this moment.

He walked quickly to Shen Zhiyi's side, reached out and tried to hold his shoulders, trying to calm him down, "Zhiyi, there are doctors, I'll go get them."

"Sir, I'm afraid no one can do anything about it."

"This girl's pulse is too weak, almost..."

Before he could finish his words, he felt Shen Zhiyi's knife-like gaze and swallowed his words back. The doctor had been practicing medicine for many years and knew that the man in front of him was relatively calm. If he were an ordinary person, he would have collapsed at this moment, or even acted impulsively.

The atmosphere in the room was extremely tense, as if the air had frozen, and the shadow of death hung over everyone.

"Master, the medicine is here!" Jiang Qu's voice came from outside the house.

Shen Zhiyi was like a drowning man who had grabbed a life-saving piece of driftwood, and a spark of hope ignited in his eyes.

He reached out hurriedly and took the pill in a panic: "Doctor, dissolve this medicine."

Upon hearing this, Doctor Li felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He hurriedly took the pill, dissolved it with warm water, and then took out his specially made tube to assist in feeding the medicine. At this time, Tao Jiu was so exhausted that he had already lost the ability to swallow on his own.

"Master, we have to pry the girl's mouth open. This is the only way to feed the medicine."

Shen Zhiyi did as he was told without hesitation.

Fortunately, the doctor was experienced and knew how to feed medicine very well. Even though Tao Jiuxi was in a fainting state, with the cooperation of the two, the medicine was fed smoothly.

"Jiang Qu, do you have any other medicine? Bring them all to the doctor!" Shen Zhiyi's hands never stopped moving, and he asked loudly while busy.

Jiang Qu hurriedly handed over the remaining medicine. The doctor picked out two and said solemnly, "Sir, you might as well try these two medicines."

"quick!"

Shen Zhiyi hurriedly urged, but this time he deliberately suppressed his tone and did not dare to be too strong.

He knew very well that the doctor was Tao Jiuxi's lifeline at the moment. If he frightened the doctor and lost his composure, he would be doomed.

The doctor quickly and skillfully prepared the two medicines, dissolved them in warm water, and fed them to Tao Jiuxi through the tube again.

After feeding the medicine, Shen Zhiyi stared at Tao Jiuxi's face nervously, not missing any subtle changes.

The whole room was so quiet that only the nervous breathing of the crowd could be heard. After a while, seeing that Tao Jiuxi still had no reaction, Shen Zhiyi's eyes became panicked again. He turned his head and looked at the doctor: "What's going on? Why haven't you responded yet?"

The doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, this medicine will take some time to take effect. Let's wait a little longer."

Shen Zhiyi gritted his teeth, said nothing, and turned his gaze back to Tao Jiuxi.

As time passed, Tao Jiuxi's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Doctor, she's moving, please take another look!"

The doctor immediately stretched out his hand and took the patient's pulse again.

"Sir, the time is still short and there is no response yet. Please wait a little longer."

Shen Zhiyi continued to stare at Tao Jiuxi.

Suddenly, Tao Jiuxi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, but there was still a bit of confusion and weakness in his eyes.

She looked around with difficulty, and her eyes finally fell on Shen Zhiyi's face full of worry.

Shen Zhiyi felt as if his heart had been hit hard, and his eyes instantly became moist. He said in a trembling voice: "Axi, you're awake... You're finally awake."

Tao Jiuxi opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Shen Zhiyi quickly held her hand, gently placed it on his cheek, and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay."

After being awake for only a moment, Tao Jiuxi closed his eyes weakly again, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep again. However, this time his sleeping face was no longer as heartbreaking as before.

The doctor rushed over and examined Tao Jiuxi again.

A relieved smile appeared on his face. "It's a miracle that the girl woke up, but her pulse is still very weak. Whether she can survive, I really can't do anything."
