Gu Jun turned to look and saw that the red scaly skin around Xie Yiman's face had turned as red as blood, and it was spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye. Si Kouxian and Uncle Dan frowned when they saw this.
Seeing this, Xie Yiman panicked, "What's wrong? What's wrong? "
"This is good news, it proves that the surgery is effective!" Gu Jun said loudly. This was not just to console her, this was real proof.
Even though the right side of her face was swollen, the red skin had not spread. However, the left side of her face had expanded by 1 cm. Be it mental worm or nervous system malfunction, through the destruction of the trigeminal nerve, the disease could be suppressed.
Regardless of whether Tian Yi was there or what she was doing, Gu Jun took a deep breath and pressed the start button on the thermostat. "Yiman, hang in there!"
Xie Yiman screamed in pain again. This time, the pain was more intense than before. Her muscles twitched involuntarily like her body was about to snap.
Her blood pressure and heart rate were rising again.
"Surgeon Si, if necessary, use the anesthetic." Gu Jun told Si Kouxian and then he called, "Wu Shiyu, come and help me!"
"Okay." Wu Shiyu walked over, "Mental power?"
"Yes, I need to sense it." Gu Jun nodded. He did not want Deng Ximei to be involved because that would only add to the uncertainty.
From the time Xie Yiman said she saw a shadow, perhaps because he had a direct conversation with Tian Yi, Gu Jun could sense Tian Yi's presence. When Wu Shiyu placed his hand on Gu Jun's arm to transfer his mental power to Gu Jun, Gu Jun held Xie Yiman's hand and the feeling became clearer.
There were many people in the surgery room, not all of them were from the Spell Department or the Ancient Seal Department but they had been warned not to disturb Gu Jun at a time like this.
At that moment, the only sound that echoed in the room was Xie Yiman's heart-wrenching scream. It sounded like she was being sliced into pieces.
Gu Jun closed his eyes and entered that darkness, that spiritual world.
He saw the peeling skin, the scales, and the hazy figure of that strange figure was there. Gu Jun's consciousness called out, "Tian Yi, is that you?" The figure paused and peered out from the darkness. The pair of eyes were human …
"Where are you now?" Gu Jun asked. He really wanted to help this unfortunate girl. "Can we help you?"
The figure didn't say anything. He just turned around and tried to run away again.
"Wait!" Gu Jun quickly yelled, "Tian Yi, I know you're an innocent victim, you didn't cause Xie Yiman's illness, did you?"
"I … I didn't do this …" The figure stopped and replied in a low voice, "I just came to take a look, to take a look."
"Then you …" Gu Jun felt the impact on his mind. He could hear Tian Yi's voice, it was like a twisted and restless voice of darkness.
'I just came to see how Xie Yiman looks when she's in pain, whether she looks like me when I'm in pain. Would someone like Xie Yiman also feel pain … '
Doctor Gu, there is no such thing as fairness in this world. We are born differently, but misfortune can suddenly make us fall into the same situation … For a small character like me, a dispensable person, to suddenly experience the same pain as Xie Yiman … Isn't that wonderful? "Gu Jun thought to himself.
Xie Yiman is not that special and I am not that special, this allows me to exist … Misfortune allows me to exist … '
'Doctor Gu, misfortune is a miracle, it can shatter destiny. Death is a truth, it can end all falsehood. '
"Hmm …" Gu Jun's head throbbed with pain. In that instant, he saw many illusions. He saw Xie Yiman attending a movie premiere, he saw her signing autographs for her fans and taking pictures for the reporters. Then he saw Tian Yi squatting in a rented house that was less than 10 square metres, trying her best to do a live broadcast.
'Misfortune, misfortune … Do you really understand the virtue of misfortune?
Can't you see the blessings brought about by this disaster?
The dark energy in Gu Jun's body surged violently. He was jolted awake. This ritual, this disease, Lydia, the Son of Misfortune …
Seeing the girl walk away, Gu Jun tried his best to calm himself down. He called out, "Tian Yi! I don't know about the others but be it you or Xie Yiman, as long as you are my patient, I will try my best to save you. Do not listen to that voice, do not be tricked! "
'Is that so? Is it just a trick? Is the virtue of misfortune just a trick … '
That appeared to be Tian Yi's reply but at the same time, it was not. She slowly walked away and disappeared.
"Ah!" Gu Jun snapped back to reality. His body was covered in a layer of cold sweat. He turned to look at Deng Ximei, who stood there calmly.
Afterlife Cult's action, the 'Conqueror Worm', was not just to create panic among the public, it was not targeted at Deng Ximei.
It was targeted at Gu Jun or rather his Spirit Child power, the Son of Misfortune.
What was the relationship between this' Lydia 'and Lenton? Did she die from hemoptysis?
"Ah Jun? Shi Yu? "Uncle Dan asked urgently," Are you alright? "
Not only Gu Jun, even Wu Shiyu was feeling uneasy. He leaned on Gu Jun. "I'll leave it to fate, let's see how you're doing …"
"I'm fine … What's going on?" Gu Jun could still hold on. He ignored everything else and continued the surgery with Uncle Dan and Si Kouxian.
While he was in a trance, the first heat coagulation was completed. Xie Yiman managed to survive it. But now, perhaps it was due to the damage or Tian Yi's departure, the spread of the red skin on both sides of her face had slowed down. When the third heat coagulation was completed, her face was so swollen that it looked like someone had blown air into it. The usual beauty was nowhere to be seen. However, the surgery was effective. The spread of the red skin on both sides had slowed down but it was still spreading.
"It feels like, like …" Xie Yiman felt her face. Her whole face had lost all sensation. "It's still itchy, not as itchy but still very itchy …"
Si Kouxian and Zhang Jinsong shared a look. Gu Jun had to make the decision. "Destroy the facial nerve."
Losing the motor function of the trigeminal nerve would be disastrous. Therefore, they decided to leave it at that for now. Destroy the facial nerve to see if it was enough.
The goal of the surgery had not changed, it was to eliminate the patient's sense of itchiness and stop the spread of the disease.
"Okay …" Xie Yiman's tears fell. Once the facial nerve's special motor fibers were destroyed, her facial muscles would lose their ability to move.
The surgery resumed. Si Kouxian was responsible for inserting the radiofrequency needle below the external auditory canal at the anterior edge of the mastoid process. It was located at the midpoint of the mandibular branch. Through the stylomastoid foramen, it reached the facial nerve. After adjusting the depth and setting the electrocoagulation position, Gu Jun pressed the start button of the condenser again.
Xie Yiman wailed in pain again. She could no longer feel the pain on her face but something was burning and exploding inside her head …
The group could only watch silently. Gu Jun could only grit his heart and watch. Something had been destroyed by misfortune.
