The patient's condition was the most serious Wang Yao had ever encountered. Her illness was the most difficult to treat so far. Given his current ability, Wang Yao was not confident in curing her at all.Treating her illness was like reviving a dead tree or a skeleton. It was too difficult, as difficult as walking on the narrow path to Sichuan.
"Doctor, my daughter..." said a middle-aged woman softly.
One herbal pill saved the life of a person who nearly died. This was not just magic.
Xue's family actually had given up on Xue. But Wang Yao gave them hope again. It was like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw.
How exciting it would be for a desperate person to see hope! No one would know the feeling if they didn't experienced it.
"She is beyond cure!" said Wang Yao.
However, just these four words were like an exceptionally heavy load falling down on Xue's family members. Wang Yao's words almost smashed their hope.
"Do you have any ways to save her?" asked Dr. Chen.
"I don't know at this stage." Wang Yao shook his head. Wang Yao's answer surprised Dr. Chen.
"What do you mean by you don't know? You either have a way to save her or not. How can you say that you don't know?" said Dr. Chen.
"I need to think about it," said Wang Yao.
"Okay," said Dr. Chen.
"Can I see her wounds?" asked Wang Yao.
"Of course," said Dr. Chen.
The medical gauze which was used to cover Xue's body was lifted. Wang Yao could see Xue's skin which could no longer be called normal skin. Her skin was full of oozing ulcers. Some areas were rotten to the core where Wang Yao could see her bones. The was scar tissue everywhere, too. They were like mother earth being invaded by a flood, or a jungle on fire. It really shocked Wang Yao.
What kinds of wounds are they?!
Wang Yao didn't expect to see what he had seen. He took a look at Xue's face. Xue was still in a coma.
She must have suffered a great deal by having this wicked disease! It must be great torture to live like this, and it is a miracle she's still alive.
Wang Yao admired Xue's strong will and perseverance. Normal people couldn't suffer the pain brought on by the ulcers all over the body.
Wang Yao didn't say anything after seeing Xue's skin. Although he knew about Xue's condition through reading medical notes brought by Guo Sirou, he just realized how difficult it would be to treat Xue's disease after seeing her with his own eyes. Her condition was definitely amongst the most difficult-to-treat diseases. It was as bad as cancer.
"Let's go outside and let Xue rest." Wang Yao stood up.
He had temporarily kept Xue's life and had a fairly good knowledge of Xue's condition. But, he hadn't come up with a treatment plan. There was no point in staying here.
"Okay," said Xue's mother.
Xue's parents walked Wang Yao out of the room. Dr. Chen continued to stay in the room. He sat next to the bed and checked Xue's pulse. He looked very focused.
"Dr. Wang, what's next?" asked Xue's mother.
"I need to find a quiet place to settle first," said Wang Yao calmly.
"I have arranged a place for you. Please come with me," said Chen Boyuan who had been waiting outside.
There was a car outside the house. Xue's parents and other family members walked Wang Yao to the door. The car then took Wang Yao to a place only a couple miles away from Xue's house.
