  “My grandfather works in the hospital not far away. I’ll bring you there to take a look.”

  They arrived at the hospital after a short walk, and Jiang Wanying gave Tang Hao a tour of the place.

  “My grandfather used to be the chief surgeon here. He is a famous expert, but now that he’s old, he stopped performing surgeries and switched to research instead.”

  As they walked, Jiang Wanying introduced her grandfather to him.

  Tang Hao remembered Jiang Wanying’s maternal grandfather and thought that it was quite peculiar.

  Her maternal grandfather was a triad leader, and his hands were stained with blood. Her paternal grandfather, on the other hand, was a doctor who specialized in saving people. What a coincidence.

  “His office is over here!”

  Jiang Wanying took the lead and walked into a building.

  They passed through the lobby and walked up the stairs. Suddenly, they heard a fierce argument coming from upstairs.

  “Please calm down. The doctor inside is still trying his best!” Someone was heard saying, “However, the chances are very slim. I hope you can be mentally prepared.”

  “Calm down? How can I calm down? That’s my son. Do you have a son? If your son is about to die, how can you calm down?” Someone shouted loudly and emotionally.

  “It’s all your fault. If you didn’t delay the resuscitation, would things have become like this? I’m telling you, if he dies, all of you will die together!

  “Xuanxuan! My son!”

  Then, people started crying and wailing.

  “If my nephew dies, all of you won’t get away with this. Aren’t you a big hospital, and the best hospital in River Delta City too? You can’t even cure a child.”

  “Right, right! What’s going on? All of you must be useless! I want to file a complaint against you!”

  The family members started shouting fiercely.

  The two people on the stairs stopped in their tracks.

  Tang Hao’s face darkened, and his brows furrowed tightly.

  He had seen that situation often on the news.

  Jiang Wanying’s brows were also furrowed tightly. Because of her grandfather, she hated people who looked for trouble with the doctors in the hospital.

  The commotion alerted the people upstairs and downstairs.

  Many doctors and nurses rushed over in a hurry. They seemed worried.

  In the past few years, there had been frequent incidents of violence against doctors. They were all fearful that the commotion in front of them would eventually lead to violence.

  Several security guards walked in from outside and rushed upstairs.

  Jiang Wanying raised her eyebrows and said angrily, “Those people are too despicable. Do they think that doctors are gods who can treat any illness? They’ll blame the doctors if the patient can’t be cured!”

  “Let’s go and take a look!”

  Tang Hao took her hand and went along with the crowd.

  The commotion became louder and louder, and the patient’s family members became more and more agitated.

  Many people were already gathered in front of the operating theater. A group of people surrounded several doctors and were arguing intensely.

  The situation seemed to be getting out of control.

  After a few minutes, the doors to the operating theater opened, and a doctor walked out. He seemed tired.

  “We… have tried our best!” He sighed and said.

  Those words were like a spark that landed in an explosive barrel. The commotion instantly exploded.

  “My son!”

  A woman immediately sat down on the floor and started wailing.

  “All you incompetent doctors, is that how you should treat a human life? I’ll teach you a lesson!”

  A middle-aged man raised his fist and smashed it at the doctor’s face.

  “What are you doing!”

  The security guards rushed forward, wanting to stop him.

  “I’ll beat you all up if you dare to stop me!”

  “Beat them up, beat all these useless people to death!”

  A group of men shouted fiercely. They rushed forward and swarmed the security guards. A few of them rushed towards the doctor, while the rest started to smash anything they could grab.

  Some doctors and nurses rushed up to stop them, but they were also beaten up. Their heads were bleeding, and the situation had completely gone out of control.

  Behind the crowd, one of the men picked up his phone and made a call.

  About two minutes later, a commotion could be heard from the hospital entrance. One could look through the glass window and see another group of people wielding bats and rushing in.

  Clearly, they were professional troublemakers.

  Tang Hao’s expression turned cold. He had overheard the phone call earlier. The family had contacted professional troublemakers, and they would start rioting after the patient died.

  All that was to extort money!

  “Hao, please help them!” Jiang Wanying said anxiously.

  At that time, the family members were ready to rush into the operating theater and snatch the body. Meanwhile, the hooligans ran along the corridor. They were dressed like farmers but had aggressive expressions.

  They smashed everything with their bats as they ran toward the crowd.

  The other people in the corridor covered their heads and scurried away.

  “Tsk!”

  Tang Hao grimaced. His eyes flashed with a hint of disgust.

  Immediately, he walked toward the group of hooligans.

  “Hah! What do you think you’re doing, kid? You should mind your own business before I beat you up too!”

  The hooligan in front glared at Tang Hao and said fiercely.

  Tang Hao did not say anything. Instead, he raised his leg and kicked the hooligan right between his legs. Faintly, the sound of something breaking could be heard.

  That person’s face turned green. He hugged his crotch and fell to the floor twitching.

  “You ought to get that checked later. Otherwise, you can say goodbye to your manhood!” Tang Hao said coldly.

  “Oh, right! I don’t think the doctors here will help you. Figure out something by yourself!”

  “F * ck your mother!”

  The hooligans behind cursed angrily as they rushed forward while smashing their bats at Tang Hao.

  Tang Hao raised his hand, grabbed the wooden bat, snatched it away from the hooligan’s hands, and smashed at the hooligan.

  Bang!

  The hooligan’s face was distorted. Broken teeth and blood flew out from his mouth.

  Everyone was dumbfounded.

  ‘Wow!

  ‘How savage!’

  The doctors and nurses, as well as the surrounding patients, were excited.

  “You’re a hero!”

  They exclaimed one after another.

  Tang Hao grabbed the bat and casually stretched his neck. His expression was ice-cold.

  He took a step forward and waved the bat. One by one, the hooligans flew out and fell to the ground with serious injuries.

  “Are there any more?”

  Finally, he asked in a casual tone.

  “No more? Then it’s your turn!”

  The family members were frightened, and their faces turned pale.

  “Who… who are you? What do you want? !” Someone mustered up his courage and shouted.

  “I want to beat you up!”

  Tang Hao stepped forward and kicked his crotch.

  Then, he beat the family members one by one.

  “Just you wait, you bastard. We won’t forgive you…” The people yelled weakly as they lay sprawled on the floor.

  The doctors and nurses were worried.

  That person might have broken up the commotion, but he had gone too far! He would get into trouble easily. If the family members wanted to sue him, he would have to pay a huge sum of money as compensation. That was not what they wanted.

br />   At that moment, Tang Hao pushed open the door of the operating theater and walked in.

  “Hey! What are you doing? You can’t go in there! Come back quickly!”

  The doctors became anxious.

  Tang Hao walked directly toward the operating table. He removed the cloth, looked at the body, and said, “There’s still hope!”

  Chapter 726 - Watching the Comedy

  The doctors and nurses who rushed in were all stunned.

  ‘There is still hope?

  ‘What a joke!’

  The doctor had already pronounced the child to be dead. How could there still be hope? That guy must be talking nonsense!

  The family members outside the door were also stunned.

  Then, they wanted to laugh.

  They knew that the child was incurable before he was brought to the hospital. They had already given up all hope, and they only wanted to take the opportunity to scam some money.

  Now, even after the doctor pronounced the child to be dead, that kid who appeared out of nowhere said that there was still hope. It was really laughable.

  “Please get out of the room!” A nurse came up and advised.

  “You should be the ones to get out. If you delay any longer, even I won’t be able to do anything!” Tang Hao said.

  As he spoke, he glanced at the eight or nine-year-old boy on the operating table.

  All of his vital signs had disappeared, despite a prolonged effort to resuscitate him. No wonder the doctor had pronounced him dead.

  However, his brain was not truly dead yet. It was only a clinical death.

  A brain death pronouncement could only be made after twenty-four hours, after repeated examinations.

  Generally speaking, clinical death meant that modern medical technology was powerless. It was no different from brain death.

  The doctors might not be able to do anything, but he still had a way.

  When the doctors heard this, their expressions became strange.

  ‘Does this guy have something wrong with his brain? Is he a lunatic?

  ‘Otherwise, why would he say such ridiculous things!’

  “Damn, he’s a lunatic!” Outside the door, the family members looked frustrated.

  “Hurry up and get out!”

  Tang Hao walked over and began to shove the doctors out of the room. Immediately, an argument broke out.

  “What’s going on?”

  At this moment, a group of people rushed in from outside. They were all wearing white coats and were all in their sixties.

  “You came at the right time, Senior Doctor. There’s something wrong with this guy; he said that he could bring the dead back to life! Don’t you think that it’s ridiculous?”

  A doctor went up to greet them.

  The old doctors were stunned.

  ‘Bring the dead back to life? That guy is really crazy!’

  “Why would you allow him to stay in the room? Hurry up and drag him out!” An old doctor said sternly. On his chest was a nametag with Jiang Baoshan on it.

  “Well…” the doctor looked at Tang Hao apprehensively.

  That kid had incredible martial arts skills. The few of them would not be able to do anything to him.

  Tang Hao walked forward and addressed the senior doctors. “Do you know Mr. Ma Yongde?”

  The old doctors were surprised. “Of course we know him!”

  Ma Yongde was the most famous and most skilled doctor in River Delta City. All doctors in River Delta City knew who he was.

  “That’s good. He knows me!” Tang Hao said casually.

  The old doctors almost wanted to laugh. How could a master like Ma Yongde know such a lunatic? That kid knew how to brag!

  “Do you think you can fool us? A medical master like Ol’ Ma wouldn’t know a kid like you! Do you think that you can revive a dead person? I’d like to see you try!”

  An old doctor sneered.

  He looked at Tang Hao with pity in his eyes.

  To him, there must be something wrong with the kid’s brain.

  “Alright! Then all of you have to go out. I’ll save him right now!” Tang Hao said.

  “Well…” the old doctor hesitated. He did not actually want to give Tang Hao the chance.

  “This isn’t appropriate!” Another old doctor said.

  The child might be dead, but if the kid tampered with his body and caused some damage, the hospital would be held responsible.

  “I’d like to see you revive the dead!”

  The family members yelled disdainfully.

  The crowd burst into laughter.

  “Where did this kid come from? Is there something wrong with his head?”

  “Does he think he’s a god? How can he save the dead?”

  Jiang Wanying was getting anxious.

  She knew that Tang Hao had amazing medical skills. That was why she wanted to bring him to the hospital to see her grandfather. However, the current situation did not seem to be working in his favor.

  Her grandfather was also there. If Tang Hao could not manage to save the child, it would be incredibly embarrassing.

  Moreover, the doctors had already said that the child was dead, so how could he be saved?

  She became more anxious when she saw the doctors leave the operation theater and close the doors.

  She hid herself amid the crowd, trying to avoid her grandfather’s gaze.

  In the operating theater, Tang Hao walked to the operating table and carefully inspected the boy.

  The boy was pronounced clinically dead. The situation could be said to be very bad.

  In the past, he would be unable to do anything.

  Now, his cultivation base was high enough. More importantly, he had a huge stash of medical pills that could save the boy.

  After pondering for a while, he took out his golden needles and pierced them one by one into the meridian points on the boy’s chest. He gently twisted the needles and continuously channeled qi from his body.

  Then, he took out another set of golden needles and inserted it into the meridian points on the patient’s brain.

  He did that repeatedly, channeling almost half of his qi into the child’s body.

  The qi was slowly healing the patient’s body and internal organs. His pale skin became ruddy as if he were alive.

  The doctors rushed to the observation room and looked down from above.

  “Ha! It’s a Chinese physician!”

  The old doctors laughed.

  As practitioners of Western medicine, they did not think highly of Chinese physicians, especially those who bragged that they could do anything.

  “He’s just a quack!” Someone mocked.

  Soon, the news spread.

  “Hey! Have you heard? A quack came to the hospital and said that he can revive the dead!”

  The whole hospital was in an uproar.

  Many doctors squeezed into the observation room, eager to see the joke. The room instantly became crowded and lively.

  “He’s putting up a realistic act!”

  They watched and laughed from time to time.

  ‘That kid wants to bring a dead person back to life with only acupuncture? That’s nothing but wishful thinking!’

  Tang Hao was fully focused. He continued to apply needles.

  “It’s been almost ten minutes!” Someone looked at his watch and said.

  “Let’s go! It’s getting boring now. We still have work to do!”

  Many people opened the door and were about to leave.

  At that moment, on the operating table, the patient’s finger trembled slightly.

  The few doctors who noticed that scene thought that they were seeing things. They even rubbed their eyes.

  Then, that finger moved again.

  They gasped, and their eyes opened wide, as though they had seen the most unbelievable thing in the world.

  “He… he moved…”

  One of the doctors said in a trembling voice. His face was filled with disb
elief.

  The doctors at the door were all stunned.

  “He’s moving, he’s really moving! Oh my god! This is a miracle!” Another doctor also exclaimed, extremely excited.

  “Quit joking around. You won’t fool us that easily!”

  The doctors thought that it was a prank. They turned back and looked down.

  When they saw the operating table, they were all stunned.

  The smiles on their faces instantly froze.

  Chapter 727 - So That’s Him

  The observation room was dead silent.

  The people froze there with blank expressions.

  Their eyes slowly widened, filled with extreme shock and astonishment.

  On the operating table below, the patient who was supposed to be “dead” was actually moving. His fingers trembled slightly, and color returned to his face.

  It was as if he had come back to life.

  “How is that possible?”

  All the doctors, young and old, were completely shocked.

  What they saw was completely beyond their understanding. They could not describe it other than a miracle.

  “How can that be?”

  “Who is that kid?”

  They were full of questions.

  In the next moment, the whole room was in an uproar.

  Joy and excitement appeared on the doctors’ faces.

  “Just who is that kid?” Jiang Baoshan laughed drily.

  He had thought that the kid was a lunatic, and he wanted to watch the kid make a fool of himself. Instead of a joke, he witnessed a miracle.

  The kid was not a lunatic. He was clearly an expert!

  That made Jiang Baoshan feel extremely ashamed.

  The other doctors also shook their heads. Their old faces were blushing with embarrassment.

  “Quick, look. The patient’s reactions are becoming more and more obvious. Oh my god! He’s breathing. He’s really alive! This is unbelievable!”

  There was another commotion in the room.

  The doctors seemed extremely excited.

  “Oh, right, he said earlier that Ol’ Ma knows him. That can’t be true, right?” An old doctor said.

  “It should be. Quick, give Ol’ Ma a call and ask him who that kid is!” The other old doctors said hurriedly.

  Immediately, the doctor took out his phone and dialed a number.
