Doctor Li hesitated for a moment, then said, "Chairman Guo, it's nothing. There's no problem with giving the Star of Hong Kong a general anesthesia! We can do it right away! "
Guo Hongjiang frowned slightly and said, "Doctor Li, just tell me if you have any difficulties. Why are you hesitating?"
It would have been better if Doctor Li didn't say anything. Guo Hongjiang felt even worse after hearing Doctor Li's words.
Doctor Li smiled bitterly and said, "Chairman Guo, I was just thinking out of habit. I wanted to say that general anesthesia is not good for a top racehorse as it might affect its performance, but …" Star of Hong Kong "shouldn't be a problem …"
After the horse's leg was broken, it was supposed to be euthanized. Even if Guo Hongjiang asked Xia Ruofei to try it, it was just a last resort. General anesthesia wasn't a problem at all.
Even if Xia Ruofei could create a miracle this time, the Star of Hong Kong probably wouldn't be able to return to racing. With such a serious injury, the Star of Hong Kong was already luckier than most of the other racehorses.
Guo Hongjiang's face showed a hint of sadness. He nodded and said, "Get ready as soon as possible! Don't let Mr. Xia wait for too long … "
"Understood!" Doctor Li said quickly.
He nodded to Xia Ruofei, then began to prepare the medicine with his assistant.
With Xia Ruofei's comfort, the Star of Hong Kong was very cooperative when it was put under anesthesia. It didn't struggle at all. After a while, it slowly closed its eyes and fell into a coma.
Doctor Li went forward to check, then nodded to Xia Ruofei and said, "Mr. Xia, it's done …"
Xia Ruofei nodded and walked to the Star of Hong Kong.
Everyone was standing not far away, staring at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei calmly pressed a few times on the Star of Hong Kong's leg that was obviously twisted after the injury. Then he held the upper part of the leg with one hand and the lower leg with the other hand. He decisively twisted and pushed the leg away. The whole movement was very fast and neat, without any hesitation.
Xia Ruofei's bonesetting technique also gave everyone a shock. Her actions were too decisive, and it looked like she would break the horse's leg if she wasn't careful.
Ma Xiong, especially, knew Xia Ruofei's condition very well. He knew that Xia Ruofei only knew Chinese medicine, but he had never heard of Xia Ruofei being a veterinarian. If he didn't even know the bone structure of a horse's leg, how could he do bonesetting a horse?
But what made Ma Xiong feel slightly relieved was that after Xia Ruofei's seemingly reckless treatment, the obvious distortion on the leg of the Star of Hong Kong had disappeared. Although it was still very swollen, at least it meant that Xia Ruofei's bonesetting was quite successful.
Xia Ruofei didn't move his hand away immediately after the bonesetting. Instead, he still felt around the wound for a little while. Finally, he let out a sigh of relief and straightened up.
Seeing this, Doctor Li hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xia, have you reset the bone of the Star of Hong Kong?"
After what happened before, Doctor Li didn't dare to doubt Xia Ruofei casually anymore, and his tone became very polite.
Xia Ruofei nodded slightly and went straight to the bowl of ointment that took him more than an hour to make.
Doctor Li immediately said, "Mr. Xia, we have portable X-ray equipment here. Do you want to check the effect of the reset …"
Speaking of this, Doctor Li immediately realized something and quickly explained, "Mr. Xia, please don't misunderstand. I'm not doubting your ability, I just want to be sure …"
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "No need, I'm confident!"
No matter how good the X-ray equipment was, it couldn't see as clearly as his mind power. Why would he need to check the bone's reset?
Besides, in order to shorten the recovery time as much as possible, Xia Ruofei used his true Qi and mind power to move the small pieces of bone near the broken leg back to their original positions after he reset the calf bone.
Under the investigation of his mind power, the condition of the wound could be seen at a glance. Except for the extremely small pieces of bone that couldn't be removed, the small pieces of bone were basically pieced back to the fracture position little by little.
As for the very small pieces of bone, they would usually be absorbed during the treatment process, so there wouldn't be any impact.
If he used the X-ray equipment to check, then all of this would be seen.
It was easy to explain if the bonesetting technique was good, but if the small pieces of bone were healed together, then it would be a bit shocking.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei definitely wouldn't let Doctor Li check it now.
Doctor Li couldn't help but look at Guo Hongjiang with a confused expression.
Guo Hongjiang frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Xia said no need, so there's no need!"
"Yes, Chairman Guo!" Doctor Li didn't dare to say anything else. He could only suppress his confusion and step aside.
Xia Ruofei didn't say anything else. He took the bowl of ointment and walked to the "Star of Hong Kong". Then, he picked up a small brush and dipped it in the ointment, and began to apply it to the wound.
The composition of the petals of the spirit heart flower would be absorbed immediately once it came into contact with the skin, so Xia Ruofei was very careful to avoid touching the ointment directly with his hands.
The black ointment didn't seem to be anything special except for the strong smell of Chinese medicine. Guo Hongjiang saw that Xia Ruofei also used a very traditional method, which was to set the bone first and then apply the ointment. He couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed.
He didn't doubt Xia Ruofei's technique or medical skills, and he also believed that the bone should have been set. However, the recovery period of a fracture was an unavoidable and crucial problem.
The effect of the anesthetic would last for at most a few hours. After the "Star of Hong Kong" woke up, it would move around because of the pain. If it was a human, even if it was a child, it could at least be comforted with words. However, the "Star of Hong Kong" couldn't understand human language, and it was so irritable. If it moved its legs slightly, Xia Ruofei's work would have been in vain.
Even if Xia Ruofei had a very magical ability to calm the "Star of Hong Kong" down, it would take a hundred days to recover from a serious injury. Was it possible that Xia Ruofei would be inseparable from the "Star of Hong Kong" for more than three months, and he would be comforting it without sleep?
Obviously, that was impossible.
Xia Ruofei didn't care about what other people thought. He was very focused on applying the ointment evenly on the broken leg.
In order to maximize the effect of the ointment, he even scraped off a little bit of the ointment at the bottom of the bowl and applied as much ointment as possible on the injured leg of the "Star of Hong Kong".
After doing all this, Xia Ruofei was slightly relieved. He turned to Guo Hongjiang and said, "Chairman Guo, I'm done. Let's all take a rest here and wait for the" Star of Hong Kong "to wake up!"
Guo Hongjiang nodded slightly and said sincerely, "Mr. Xia, thank you for your hard work!"
Whether Xia Ruofei could succeed or not, Guo Hongjiang's gratitude came from the bottom of his heart. He could see that Xia Ruofei was trying his best to cure the "Star of Hong Kong", and he had seen the magical medical skills that Xia Ruofei had mentioned before. Therefore, he wanted to befriend Xia Ruofei even more.
"You're welcome," Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Guo Hongjiang asked Xia Ruofei to sit on the grass outside the stable. After all, it didn't smell very good inside.
Xia Ruofei thought for a while and nodded. "Okay! Doctor Lee, one of you stay here to observe the "Star of Hong Kong". When it's about to wake up, come out and let me know. "
Doctor Lee quickly said, "Okay, I'll stay here by myself!"
"That's fine too." Xia Ruofei said, "Remember, don't touch the ointment on the" Star of Hong Kong ", and don't use any equipment to check it. Just watch it!"
"Understood! Don't worry! "Doctor Lee said immediately.
Xia Ruofei, Guo Hongjiang, and Ma Xiong walked out of the stables together. There were already staff moving picnic tables and chairs in the meadow. They also brought some pastries, snacks, and of course, the unfinished red wine from dinner were all placed on the table.
Although it was already winter, the weather in Hong Kong wasn't too cold. Even if they were outdoors, they wouldn't feel uncomfortable.
Xia Ruofei and the other two sat down and chatted with red wine glasses while sipping from time to time.
Guo Hongjiang didn't continue the topic of the "Star of Hong Kong" because he felt that if he said too much, it would easily make Xia Ruofei misunderstand that he didn't trust his ability. Moreover, the "Star of Hong Kong" was injured, which made him feel very bad. So he simply changed the topic to change his mood.
People who were able to do well in the business world and had a net worth of ten billion yuan were not low in EQ. Whether it was Guo Hongjiang or Ma Xiong, they all had their unique personal charms, so Xia Ruofei didn't feel bored.
Whether it was talking about business or some anecdotes in Hong Kong's rich circle, Xia Ruofei was very interested.
More than an hour passed quickly.
When it was almost ten o 'clock in the evening, Doctor Li ran over and said, "Chairman Guo, Chairman Ma, Mr. Xia, it's about time. The" Star of Hong Kong "should be awake soon."
Xia Ruofei, Ma Xiong, and Guo Hongjiang looked at each other. The three of them stood up at the same time and walked towards the stable.
The "Star of Hong Kong" was still lying there quietly.
Ma Xiong glanced at it and said in surprise, "Huh? The swelling seems to have gone down! "
Guo Hongjiang couldn't help but open his eyes wide when he heard that. He quickly walked over to take a closer look and said in surprise, "It seems to have gone down a little."
Doctor Li was a little bit surprised. When a bone was broken, it would cause a lot of damage to the muscle tissue and capillaries. How could the swelling go down so easily?
He couldn't help but walk over and take a closer look. He carefully recalled the condition of the "Star of Hong Kong" and couldn't help but be a little shaken.
It seemed that … it had really gone down a lot?
But it didn't seem to be any different!
Doctor Li was very conflicted.
For more than an hour, Doctor Li had been staring at the "Star of Hong Kong". The swelling went down slowly, so it wasn't easy to notice.
It was like a child. Parents wouldn't notice any changes if they saw them every day, but if others saw them every once in a while, they would immediately notice that the child had grown up a lot.
Therefore, as the only person who stayed in the stable, Doctor Li was the last to notice the change.
Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei knew in his heart that it must be the effect of the Spirit Heart Flower's petals.
One had to know that the little bit of ointment just now was infused with a whole Spirit Heart Flower's petals! It would be strange if it didn't have any effect at all!
"Xia Sheng, why don't you … go and check it out?" Ma Xiong sounded very excited.
Xia Ruofei smiled faintly and nodded.
He walked to the side of the "Star of Hong Kong" and glanced at the broken bone.
The black ointment still emitted a strong Chinese medicine smell, but Xia Ruofei knew that the Spirit Heart Flower's petals had been completely absorbed by the "Star of Hong Kong".
The petals would be absorbed when they came into contact with the skin. At first, Xia Ruofei was worried that the "Star of Hong Kong" might not be able to absorb the Spirit Heart Flower's petals, but now it seemed that he was overthinking.
He only took a glance and he could clearly feel that the swelling had gone down a lot.
Unlike the others, Xia Ruofei had used his mental power to check the entire leg, so even the slightest change couldn't escape Xia Ruofei's eyes.
Moreover, the swelling was actually quite obvious, or else Ma Xiong wouldn't have noticed it the moment he entered the stable.
Xia Ruofei quietly placed his hand on the back of the "Star of Hong Kong" and released his mental power to check.
When the situation was reflected in his mind, he couldn't help but smile.
The Spirit Heart Flower's petals didn't disappoint him.
During the check, Xia Ruofei could clearly "see" that the broken bone was slowly healing, especially the small pieces of broken bone. They had already merged with the calf bone, and if he didn't check carefully, he wouldn't even notice the signs of fracture.
Bones were the slowest to heal, and as for the strained muscles and broken tendons, they had already healed.
An entire Spirit Heart Flower's petals had been used all at once, and the effect was simply unbelievable!
"How is it, Mr. Xia?" Guo Hongjiang asked impatiently when he saw Xia Ruofei raise his head after the check.
"The situation is similar to what I expected, and the effect is great!" Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Chairman Guo, now that I've restored the" Star of Hong Kong "to its original state, I'm even more confident!"
"That's great!" Guo Hongjiang couldn't help but feel excited. "Mr. Xia, thank you so much this time! As long as the "Star of Hong Kong" survives, I'll definitely reward you handsomely! "
Guo Hongjiang was so excited after hearing the good news that he didn't notice that Xia Ruofei had used the word "restored" to its original state.
In fact, Xia Ruofei's goal from the beginning was to restore the "Star of Hong Kong" to its best condition so that it could compete and even have a chance to win the championship.
