LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 374: Dominated by the Brain
Only some vegetable soup remained, but it hadn't been thrown away, clearly indicating their current lifestyle must be quite frugal.
After seeing all this, Lin Yi's resolve strengthened even more; this girl, he thought, was someone he had to help.
Now that her family was in this situation and she still could empathize enough to help others, such girls were truly rare.
Then, he found a box of matches in a corner.
In fact, an image of what to do had roughly formed in his mind.
It's just that he was unclear about the significance of his actions.
However, his brain was constantly compelling him to carry on, perhaps only by proceeding could he discover what the ultimate outcome would face.
He lit a match, and then, ran an embroidery needle through the flame thoroughly.
This must serve the purpose of disinfection.
Upon returning to the room, he glanced over and saw a bottle of alcohol and iodophor by the window, presumably left there by Liu Yao.
He picked them up, finding them to be conveniently useful.
"Auntie, during the process, there might be some pain, but you must endure it, understand?"
"Young man, what, what are you going to do? Are you, you going to perform acupuncture on me?"
"It's not acupuncture. If I'm not mistaken about your current condition, it's probably relapsed."
"Right, I didn't even need to get an X-ray to know, it's definitely relapsed, and this sensation is exactly like the previous times it happened."
"My goal now is to resolve this relapsed lesion first, then we can address the systemic issues."
"Can you really solve it with just an embroidery needle?"
"Auntie, rest assured, if you trust me, then go ahead and try. But I won't force you, if you feel uncomfortable with it, I'll stop right now."
Saying this, Lin Yi looked up at the woman.

He could guess that inside, the woman was probably struggling greatly.
Ask yourself, if it were you suffering from such an illness and a stranger suddenly arrived at your home claiming he could treat you, how much credibility would that claim hold?
"Sigh, I've been tormented by this pain for so many years that I've grown accustomed to it, and I know I can't hold on much longer."
"Auntie, don't talk like that, you must stay positive about treatment, and while I dare not promise to eradicate the lesion, I am certain that delaying its progression is completely doable."
Lin Yi was merely saying this.
He did not know much about sarcomas, but based on his current approach, he was certain he couldn't completely eradicate it for her.
"Alright, you might as well treat me as a dead horse you're trying to cure, and young man, proceed with confidence."
With those words, Lin Yi felt as if he had taken a heart-relief pill and finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Okay, Auntie, if it really hurts later, just tell me."
Lin Yi, after all, was performing treatment for the first time, so even now, his grip on the procedure wasn't firm.
He was unclear about the force he should use when inserting the needle. Moreover, where should he insert it and what to do after? All of these were blank in his mind.
He just felt something within his brain continuously urging him to proceed this way.
Finally, the woman leaned back a bit, in doing so, she could better expose that particular area.
Lin Yi took out the acupuncture needle, and at this moment, his hand began to tremble.
Damn, in this state, how could he treat anyone? If he couldn't hold the needle steady, he was likely to become a laughing stock.
But unexpectedly, just as he thought this, his hand suddenly steadied itself firmly.
Moreover, he skillfully took out some iodine and alcohol from beside him and started to meticulously wipe the area over and over.
All these actions were completed extremely proficiently, to the point where Lin Yi himself was unclear as to how he had managed them.
In the end, the needle, led by his hand, arrived at the patient's affected part.
That's right, Lin Yi saw very clearly, it was truly as if the needle was moving his hand, not the other way around,
Finally, the needle gently pierced the skin at one spot.
He heard what seemed to be a sound coming from the auntie's mouth.
He turned to look at her and just felt that her expression was somewhat unnatural.
"Auntie, you, are you alright?"
"No, it's just that it did hurt a bit when the needle first went in, but now, it's much more comfortable. Don't worry, young man, continue your treatment."
After hearing this, Lin Yi simply nodded. When he turned back, he saw that the needle had already penetrated over half its length into the skin.
Now, only a little part of it was held in his hand.
His hand was gripping it firmly, fearing that the needle might break inside.
Then, he felt a warm current hit him once again.
It was just like the last time when he was treating Han Xuewei's stomach, the warm current felt exactly the same.
He felt the needle begin to spin on its own within the skin.
In the end, Lin Yi just opened his eyes to take a look.
He discovered that the needle had penetrated the raised area.
Following that, it seemed to separate the layers within, as if peeling them apart.
Suddenly, he saw a white substance gush out from that spot.
Afterwards, the swelling deflated rapidly.
Could it be that he had just obliterated it?
Lin Yi felt a sense of incredulity.
In the end, he carefully looked around the area, and besides that spot, there seemed to be another area also showing signs of proliferation.
Then, he adjusted the needle's position slightly and likewise destroyed the raised spot.
The white liquid continued to flow down from that spot, reaching the heel of the foot.
This time he saw very clearly, just as if he were a CT scanner, he could see the internal structure of his body with utmost clarity.
He was driven by a feeling that he must drain these white substances, otherwise, they would surely pose some danger to the body internally.
