"After you left, Old Hughes, Mr. Mercer's condition deteriorated quickly. He became unconscious, feverish, and his condition worsened. I called you, but you didn't pick up. We were extremely worried and didn't know what to do. Fortunately, Miss Jones happened to come by to do business with you and offered her help. It's all thanks to her that Mr. Mercer was able to recover so quickly from danger. I never thought her medical skills were so good. She just inserted a few needles and gave him some medicine, and Mr. Mercer was up and about in no time!" Ava said to Old Hughes with a relieved tone, explaining what had just happened.
"Old Hughes, indeed, that's how it happened," Xavier nodded with smiles.
"Anna?" Old Hughes looked surprised, stroking his beard.
"Yes," Ava nodded.
Old Hughes's surprise deepened. "She knows medicine?"
"Yes, she's exceptionally skilled. I just found out too. I thought you knew that, given your acquaintance with Miss Jones."
Upon hearing Ava's words, Old Hughes fell into thought. Deanna had many business dealings with him. He only knew her for growing herbs to sell, but it was the first time he knew she knew medicine; this girl hid it pretty deep.
Lance's condition was so critical, yet she managed to turn the tide.
"Kid, give me your hand, let me check your pulse."
Putting his hand on Lance's pulse, Old Hughes examined it closely and was amazed. He had treated Lance more than once, but it was the first time his pulse was so steady. But with his condition so severe, how could he suddenly be so spirited?
"Ava, when Anna was giving the acupuncture, which acupoints did she use needles on?"
He was excited inside. If Anna really could cure Lance, it would be a big relief.
Ava recalled and said, "It's strange, I've never seen the acupoints she used before. She inserted several needles, I remember one in the toe, one in the shoulder, and another in the thigh."
This is... ancient medical art!
