I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

216 Heart Massage

“Okay. If there are no problems, change your equipment and get ready for the surgery.”

Mo Ruyue nodded to the two and let them go change their equipment.

She walked out of the operating room and said to the captain of the soldiers who was walking around in the courtyard, “Has the surrounding area been cleared? In the next twelve hours, no one is allowed to disturb me with anything, not even if the sky falls. Can you do that?”

“Yes, I promise to complete the task!”

The captain of the soldiers raised his right arm to his chest and saluted Mo Ruyue, solemnly making a promise.

An hour later, the surgery officially began.

The first step was to anesthetize the patient. However, without the monitoring of modern instruments, the estimation of the amount of anesthetic was the first and most important thing.

However, Mo Ruyue had already simulated the series of procedures of the operation during the previous examination and had accurate data on the amount of anesthetic. Therefore, when Qing Xi was anesthetized, the anesthetic was prepared in advance.

When her mouth and nose were covered, Qing Xi felt as if she was flying into the clouds. Her entire body felt light. The feeling of weightlessness made her suddenly struggle in fear.

“Shh, it’s okay. Relax and have a good sleep. You’ll be fine when you wake up. Trust me.”

Mo Ruyue’s voice was soft. At this moment, she could understand Qing Xi’s fear. After all, she was just an ordinary teenager. How could she not be afraid when faced with a life and death situation?

Therefore, she showed a rare trace of gentleness and comforted her in a soft voice.

Qing Xi looked up at Mo Ruyue and saw the firm light and promise in her eyes. She slowly stopped struggling and gradually fell into a deep sleep as the medicine took effect.

Seeing that the anesthetic had taken effect, Mo Ruyue looked at Imperial Doctor Tian, Doctor Wang, and Xin Yi who were standing by the operating table. After nodding to each other, she firmly made the first cut on the disinfected area.

There was no beeping sound from the monitoring devices, and only a light lamp that replaced the shadowless lamp provided the necessary light for the surgery.

Although Mo Ruyue’s vision was now several times better than that of ordinary people, it was not so abnormal that she could distinguish nerves and blood vessels without the help of instruments. Fortunately, she had found an artisan to grind the glass until it was of different thickness and made a simple microscope, which could be used to perform surgery.

Every time she made a cut, she was very precise. Although the wound was big, she cleverly avoided many richer and denser blood vessels and tried to control the blood loss to a very low level.

Imperial Doctor Tian was at the side, continuously passing instruments to Mo Ruyue. At the same time, he was also carefully observing her technique. Seeing how skilled she was, it was as if she had cut the human body countless times. She was extremely familiar with every piece of muscle, bone, every blood vessel, and every meridian.

He was very surprised that Mo Ruyue had such skills and abilities. What was even stranger was that she had such skills, but why had she not revealed it in the past? Where did she learn from, or was it from her family?

All kinds of questions lingered in his mind, but now was not the time to explore these things. He could only bury all the questions in his heart and think about it after the operation was successfully completed.

He knew very well that Mo Ruyue was a person who paid great attention to privacy. She must have had her reasons for not being willing to come out to Huichun Hall to give medical services.

Moreover, it wasn’t a very honorable thing to pry into other people’s privacy, so it was better to think about this matter at length.

Slowly, the tumor hidden under the flesh began to reveal its true appearance. The huge tumor that parasitized the internal organs also seemed to have a life of its own, constantly throbbing vigorously, making Imperial Doctor Tian and the others feel their scalps go numb.

They had never cut a tumor like this before. It was as if there was a life growing inside it and it could break through the flesh membrane at any time.

Just as Mo Ruyue was carefully removing the tumour, nerves, and blood vessels, a sudden change occurred.

Xin Yi, who had been monitoring the blood pressure, suddenly issued a warning.

“Lady Qin, I can’t feel the patient’s pulse!”

Her fingers had been placed on Qing Xi’s wrist the entire time. She was using this simple method to monitor her pulse and heartbeat. This required Xin Yi’s basic skills to be very solid. Furthermore, she had to be calm and steady so that she would not make any mistakes in her judgment.

During the operation, Xin Yi did not dare to be distracted for even a moment. Even though her fingers on Qing Xi’s wrist were cramping, she still held on, afraid that she would miss any important information if she were to leave.

All of a sudden, she realized that the pulse that she could vaguely feel earlier had disappeared. After confirming it for two seconds, Xin Yi made a prompt decision to report the situation to Mo Ruyue

The disappearance of a pulse meant that the patient’s blood pressure was not enough. Mo Ruyue had been transfusing blood to Qing Xi and at the same time, using acupuncture to reduce the flow and volume of bleeding as much as possible. However, the situation of the blood pressure not being enough still appeared.

She immediately said to Imperial Doctor Tian, “Elder Tian, according to the method I taught you before, immediately start to give the patient a heart massage!”

In order to prevent any sudden accidents during the operation, Mo Ruyue also taught some of the common first aid methods in the operating room to Imperial Doctor Tian and the other two. The most important one was the heart massage recovery technique.

At this time, there was no defibrillator, so they could only use the simplest heart massage to restore the patient’s heartbeat and blood pressure. And now, the only person who could operate on the patient was Mo Ruyue, so this massage could only be done by one of Imperial Doctor Tian or Mo Ruyue.

“I’ll do it!”

Imperial Doctor Tian did not hesitate and immediately stood on Qing Xi’s upper body. He reached out and pressed on her chest. According to the method Mo Ruyue had taught him, he began to press down quickly and forcefully.

At this time, there was no need to care about the gender difference. The most important thing was to save people.

While Imperial Doctor Tian was performing a heart massage to save the patient, Mo Ruyue had already started to use silver needles to pierce several other acupuncture points. This was another way to stimulate the body’s function to recover, but there was a drawback. After using it, the body’s damage would double, so it was best not to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.

She was worried that Imperial Doctor Tian’s training time was not long, so it was better to do two things at the same time to be safe.

Xin Yi could only concentrate on feeling the almost undetectable pulse under her fingertips. All Doctor Wang could do was to immediately wipe the sweat from Mo Ruyue’s forehead when she stopped.

The heart massage continued for about ten minutes before Xin Yi felt the skin under her fingertips jump. The faint beating made her happy, afraid that she had sensed it wrong.

It wasn’t until the throbbing became a little stronger that she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Her pulse has recovered. The patient is temporarily better.”

Imperial Doctor Tian also took a step back at the right time and stopped. It was just that the heart massage that lasted for ten minutes was really a test of his physical strength.

He had to consider the strength of the massage and also try to avoid a sternum fracture. Imperial Doctor Tian had already done his best to avoid causing a second injury to Qing Xi.
