Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1198: Chapter 864: The Surgery Preparations Begin!

Gu Changsheng was stunned upon hearing the words!

Her whole body went numb as if struck by lightning, staring at the brazen old man before her, she had lost the ability to speak!

This old man, pledge-bound to make her perform a caesarean suicide, surviving neither in life nor death, must have been sent by heaven to punish her, surely!

What’s more frustrating is that Gu Changsheng realized she was helpless against this old man!

This feeling of being powerless was absolutely terrible!

Of course, if you really want her to perform a caesarean suicide, she can’t do it. Damn it, she’s a pure Huaxia citizen, and won’t play along with the Little Sun country’s loyalty-suicide shtick!

But what to do with this old man before her?

Gu Changsheng shook her head. Whatever, let him be. She’ll just use silence to resist!

Resolute in this idea, Gu Changsheng ignored the old man buzzing around her like a fly. Damn, what time is this?

Beauty Sai’s impending caesarean birth concerns three lives, a critical moment Gu Changsheng definitely won’t allow to fall apart, especially it’s her own responsibility to ensure it doesn’t!

The entire Guo Family, countless people from the Itinerant World surrounded the courtyard tightly, half-grown lads carrying basins full of hot water, running quickly, one after another burly men from the Itinerant World appeared and disappeared, clutching their arms...

Collecting blood, preventing coagulation, preparing for emergencies...

Gu Changsheng was busy like a spinning top, not resting for a moment.

The whole Guo Family seemed to be caught in a storm, everyone was more tense than ever!

All because today is Beauty Sai’s delivery day!

Twins, fraught with danger, a mishap could result in three deaths!

No room for ambiguity!

How could people not feel as if facing a formidable enemy?

Everyone surrounded the courtyard, anxiously staring, walking in circles...

Gu Changsheng had already issued an order of life and death, no one except the attendants in the outer courtyard preparing for the event may step into the courtyard without her permission, and those few allowed in the courtyard were handpicked by Gu Changsheng beforehand, all were both bold and careful, yet even they could only wait in the outer courtyard, arranging Beauty Sai’s room, only Gu Changsheng and the Medical Immortal Old Man could enter!

With some arrangements prepared, Gu Changsheng looked at the blood stored in the water bladder, took a deep breath, her bright and beautiful face filled with seriousness as she looked at a half-grown lad standing at the courtyard entrance holding a medicine bowl, making a solemn decision, she took a deep breath, step by step walked toward the courtyard entrance...

At the courtyard entrance, the Father and Son from the Guo Family, along with their little sister Guo Xianer, all were wringing their hands with the same anxious movement, seeing Gu Changsheng approach, they immediately came up to her, faces full of worry...

Gu Changsheng took the medicine bowl from the lad’s hand, pursed her lips, then looked up at the Guo Family Father and Son, and Zhou Mu standing behind them.

Zhou Mu held the little bundle of flesh, his tall figure stood straight, the corners of his mouth slightly curved in a faint smile, nodding to Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng was dressed in a red robe, her hair and face hidden beneath the same colored brocade, leaving only her bright and spirited Phoenix Eyes, she winked at Zhou Mu before turning to the Father and Son of the Guo Family, and her expression turned resolute and serious, she said in a deep voice, ”Once Beauty Sai drinks this bowl of Powder for Anesthesia, surgery will start in a quarter of an hour. Once it begins, it cannot be halted midway. I can guarantee the children in Beauty Sai’s belly will be safely born, but I don’t have a hundred percent certainty that the severely exhausted Beauty Sai will survive the ordeal. This is the truth, I hope you keep it in mind, but you must trust me, I will use all my life’s learning to ensure mother and children are safe!”

”Southern Emperor...” Guo Luo heard this, his complexion turned pale, and in the next moment, his burly body ”poofed” onto the ground.

”Southern Emperor, everything depends on you!” Elder Guo also leaned on his own son, trembling as he knelt down, his old face faintly showing tears, ”My daughter-in-law and grandchildren’s lives depend on you, I beg you...”

At this, Elder Guo realized that saying more was superfluous, so he stopped talking, and kowtowed.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng shook her head helplessly, nodded to Guo Xianer, who was already dressed in a complete white outfit, fully enveloped and ready. Seeing Gu Changsheng’s indication, she quickly stepped forward.

Gu Changsheng glanced at her and nodded, ”Beauty Sai’s childbirth is unlike any other. Ordinary midwives may not be able to handle it. Guo Xian’er, although you are an unmarried young woman, as a woman of the Itinerant World, you must have more courage than those midwives. In a moment, you will follow me and the Medicine Immortal Old Man into the delivery room to assist. Remember, no matter what you see, do not make a sound. I need you to come when called and obey the commands of me and the Medicine Immortal Old Man. This involves the lives of your sister-in-law and your nephew or niece. None of us—any of the three—can make a mistake. Do you understand?”

”Understood! Xian’er understands! Xian’er will definitely follow the orders of the Southern Emperor and will not make a mistake!” Guo Xian’er heard and nodded smartly, her exposed eyes full of seriousness.

Hearing this, Gu Changsheng looked at her and nodded but still glanced at her stomach and asked, ”Then have you followed my instructions and fasted?”

Forgive Gu Changsheng’s caution. A caesarean section truly involves opening up the belly. Who, in general, can endure such bloodiness?

Even though Guo Xian’er is a woman of the Itinerant World, accustomed to the blade and sword, she may not remain calm in the face of such gore!

”Yes! Xian’er has followed the Southern Emperor’s instructions and hasn’t eaten since last night!” Guo Xian’er immediately nodded upon hearing this.

But Gu Changsheng was still not completely relieved, for she had seen too many circumstances like this. Thinking back to when Butcher Wang had surgery, even the assisting doctors could hardly avoid feeling nauseous!

However, vomit must not appear in the delivery room surgery at any cost!

Therefore, Gu Changsheng immediately turned to look at another young man. The young man was also holding a medicine bowl. Gu Changsheng raised an eyebrow at Guo Xian’er, ”Emetic decoction, drink it, purge everything, change into clean clothes, and then come in!”

Guo Xian’er was stunned, looking at the medicine bowl with some fear, but thinking of her own heavily pregnant sister-in-law lying inside, she steeled herself, took the medicine bowl, and drank it all in one go. Then, in the blink of an eye, a turbulent fishy taste erupted in her stomach, and Guo Xian’er’s face changed. She swiftly moved her body and dashed out of the crowd, hiding under a tree to begin retching...

Gu Changsheng said nothing about this but instead spoke seriously to the crowd at the door again, ”Remember what I said, I will not leave the operating room. Until you hear the newborn baby’s cries, you must not enter. No matter what sounds you hear, you cannot enter unless I come out. Even if the sky falls outside, no one is allowed to step into the operating room uninvited! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

”Yes! We remember!” Guo Luo hurriedly nodded upon hearing this.

”Rest assured, Southern Emperor, we will make this courtyard as impenetrable as an iron barrel, ensuring no one disturbs you. Even a fly will not be allowed to enter!”

”...”

Those around heard and hurriedly pounded their chests in assurance.

Hearing this, Gu Changsheng nodded and squinted at Guo Xian’er, who was vomiting violently in the distance, looked at the medicine bowl in her hand, and turned to walk into the courtyard. Inside the courtyard, only two nimble young men were doing chores like boiling water...

Outside the room where Beauty Sai was located, there was a suite, and inside the suite, Beauty Sai’s maid was waiting cautiously. The items delivered by the young men outside would only reach the suite door and then be sent to the actual operating room door by the maid!

After all, it was a woman’s childbirth, in this ancient time, men were not allowed to watch!

Of course, the Medicine Immortal Old Man was an exception, which others chose to selectively ignore!

Though the Guo Family was large, looking around, besides Beauty Sai on the operating table and Guo Xian’er, there was now only the maid called Xiao Yuyu being female. Especially after the occurrence with Yu Shu, the Guo Family conducted a thorough investigation of Xiao Yuyu to ensure she held no ill intentions before allowing her to stay.

Gu Changsheng glanced at the terrified Xiao Yuyu in the suite and said in a deep voice, ”Xiao Yuyu, your master is about to undergo surgery. You had better not mess up at the critical moment. Be well prepared!”

”Yes! Rest assured, Southern Emperor, everything the Young Master and Little Miss need, this maid has prepared. Whatever you need, just call this maid from the outer room, and the boys outside will prepare it and deliver it to this maid, who will then send it to the operating room door! Southern Emperor, trust this maid, and I will certainly not make a mistake!” Xiao Yuyu heard and hurriedly nodded, resolute as if swearing an oath.

Hearing this, Gu Changsheng nodded and then stepped into the delivery room, or rather the operating room.

Inside the delivery room, the Medicine Immortal Old Man had long since, following Gu Changsheng’s instructions, been forcibly dressed in clean clothes, with both his hair and beard covered meticulously.

”What is that in your hand?” The Medicine Immortal Old Man blinked his old eyes and asked Gu Changsheng as she walked in.

”Powder for Anesthesia!” Gu Changsheng glanced at Beauty Sai, who was struggling to support herself on the operating table, her phoenix eyes carrying a hint of a smile, ”Even if you have questions, wait until the surgery is over to ask...”

Saying this, Gu Changsheng handed the medicine bowl in her hand forward to Beauty Sai, speaking warmly, ”Beauty Sai, drink this bowl of Powder for Anesthesia, and you will fall asleep without feeling a hint of pain...”

Hearing this, Beauty Sai reached out, took the medicine bowl containing the Powder for Anesthesia, a trace of worry flashing across her swollen face, hesitating and not knowing how to speak...
