CHAPTER 1105: CHAPTER 1061: MARVELOUS SKILLS

Liu Bei’s side indeed has quite a few experts of Inner Qi Manifestation Rank, and Hua Tuo’s treatment here is indeed exceptionally high. However, to say that top generals like Guan Yu and Zhao Yun would coordinate in experiments, one, there’s not that much time, and two, Hua Tuo doesn’t dare to openly admit it!

Occasionally, taking a tube of blood for research is still possible, but the issue is that this holds no real significance for Hua Tuo’s overall research.

Apart from discovering through a microscope that Inner Qi Manifestation’s cellular endurance is extraordinarily high and the activity is very high, no practically meaningful research results have been derived. So, Hua Tuo has great interest in the project of studying the super speed recovery of Inner Qi Manifestation, but up till now, there are no actual results.

To Hua Tuo, this is a super research project that could change the entire current medical level. Opposed to things like unifying the realm or a unified dynasty, Hua Tuo is very aware that if he can solve this project, the entire era will change because of him, and the people would no longer be tormented by illnesses.

For those commoners who regard financial power as their supreme ideal, Hua Tuo declares that he has long transcended this level. Their Hua Family from Peii State, though seemingly shallow, has him as a super divine doctor. Whether people believe it or not, his presence ensures even aristocratic families won’t underestimate them.

After all, everyone is human. No one is guaranteed to be free from headaches or fevers, and when an epidemic breaks out, it doesn’t matter if you’re from an aristocratic family. Just by extinguishing this trouble in this lifetime, Hua Tuo has already garnered respect from all.

The higher one stands, the further one’s thoughts reach. Standing as a top figure in a field, the issues contemplated are unimaginable to those at the bottom of the industry.

Much like how Hua Tuo is now pondering how to suppress diseases rather than how to treat them. Having drawn blood from individuals like Zhao Yun and Xuu Chu multiple times, after a year of research, Hua Tuo extracted a certain substance from them, which is enough to combat most pathogens.

After obtaining certain fragmented ideas from Chen Xi of the future, Hua Tuo’s medical knowledge has reached a certain pinnacle, naturally understanding that the body with Inner Qi Manifestation possesses immense research value.

At least, with the substance Hua Tuo now possesses, capable of combating most diseases and suppressing a significant degree of toxicity, it is enough to revolutionize the era’s medical perception.

However, that’s not enough; Hua Tuo seeks mass production, seeks replacement. He wants something like how Artemisia combats malaria, obtainable everywhere, yet there’s no living Inner Qi Manifestation for him to research!

Therefore, when Hua Tuo saw Zhou Tai, he became extremely excited—a living Inner Qi Manifestation that he could manipulate at will. Even after just a few contacts, he had already concluded based on experience that, although the Inner Qi was nearly absent, the physical quality surpassed all Inner Qi Manifestations under Liu Bei’s command.

This is an excellent research material that must be retained, and nine times out of ten, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. At least from years of medical practice, he’s never seen an Inner Qi Manifestation turned into such a state.

As for the lack of Inner Qi, it doesn’t matter to Hua Tuo. He’s more focused on physical research, and Zhou Tai’s body—though Hua Tuo has only just made a preliminary assessment—he can be sure that, aside from back when Dian Wei carried Xi Zhicai here to save him, there is no physique more suitable for research.

Of course, if Dian Wei, who Hua Tuo has termed the perfect physique with ultra-high vitality, could be captured for this purpose, that would be even better. However, given the results of Hua Tuo’s research with Dian Wei’s blood, he has completely given up; after adding some substances, Dian Wei’s blood still retains its activity until now!

"So you can heal him?" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were overjoyed, their biggest fear being that Hua Tuo, like Zhang Zhongjing, would straightforwardly declare him beyond saving.

"He can be treated, but no guarantee on full recovery." Hua Tuo placed his hand on Zhou Tai’s forehead, activating his medical talent to reverse Zhou Tai’s injuries to the previous phase of cellular memory.

The next instant, Zhou Tai’s eyes suddenly opened wide, and Hua Tuo quickly fished out a few silver needles from medical alcohol, flying the liquid off, and directly stuck them into Zhou Tai’s head.

"...," Seeing Zhou Tai struggle to say something, Hua Tuo simply removed the needles, and Zhou Tai closed his eyes again.

Hua Tuo had already speculated in his heart that this guy was basically beyond saving. The medical talent brought cellular memory back to the previous stage but still resulted in this dire state. Under these circumstances, unless Hua Tuo could cure Zhou Tai instantaneously, it was as good as hopeless; so simply put, he couldn’t save him~

In reality, Hua Tuo knows very well that his medical talent is already an incredibly formidable method. He once tried to resurrect a just-deceased person...

Because Hua Tuo’s medical talent functions by reverting biological cells to a previous memory level, in essence, reversing the direction of the living being’s growth, though publicly claiming to suppress injuries to a previous stage, he has touched some taboo areas. Unfortunately, doctors can’t treat themselves!

Reviving the deceased, within a few moments after death when the body’s cells weren’t completely destroyed, Hua Tuo could save a person. As for how to explain the revival, perhaps with suspended animation. If he claims something, that’s it. You say someone has died? Are you sure your assessment is more accurate than Hua Tuo’s?

Not sure, right? If unsure, then it’s suspended animation. Honestly, even if Zhang Zhongjing came and saw Hua Tuo’s methods a few times over, he too would doubt whether the person was truly dead. Who would ever suspect Hua Tuo was literally reviving the dead...

Yet it’s no matter, as Hua Tuo himself has already been crowned as a divine doctor, and even enshrined in a living temple. If ordinary people can’t save a life, but Hua Tuo can, it’s normal. Again, what extent defines death? Who has a precisely accurate definition? If someone says not dead, then not dead, would you challenge it?

Furthermore, since obtaining the microscope made of pure transparent crystal, all of Hua Tuo’s anxious feelings about his own talents have vanished. If the cells are not entirely dead, how can one say the person is dead? It was previously due to poor skills that one couldn’t save—now medical skills are improving!

Seeing Hua Tuo swiftly awaken Zhou Tai, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were both delighted. They finally understood why this figure before them is called a divine doctor; it’s genuinely not for show, but his medical skills are exceptionally high.

"So, Divine Doctor Hua, how is it? Seems to be okay, right?" Seeing Zhou Tai open his eyes to speak but then fainting again by Hua Tuo’s hand, Lul Xun urgently spoke. He knew Hua Tuo was very reliable, and luckily, neither Zhou Yu nor Sun Ce noticed Lul Xun’s excitement during this moment of their own triumph. (To be continued.
