Chapter 360: Blood in My Heart
Chapter 360
As a result, what Sixth Elder Brother saw was that Mr. Si Meng was still in a state of unconsciousness.
He asked in puzzlement: "Ninth Younger Brother, what happened to the old fox?"
Although he had restrained his strength when dealing with Fifth Elder Brother just now, he was still a little worried that he had hit the old ghost too hard and sent him to the Western Paradise.
"Sixth Brother, don't worry. I thought of a way to deal with this old fox." Mo Jiuye explained.
Hearing this, the depression in Sixth Elder Brother's heart seemed to dissipate in an instant.
Although he and Ninth Younger Brother had not seen each other for many years, through the contact during this period of time, he discovered that Ninth Younger Brother was no longer the youngster he used to be.
Perhaps it was because of the changes in the family over the years, Ninth Younger Brother had not only become steadier, even his wisdom was not comparable to that of his other brothers.
Therefore, as long as it was something Ninth Younger Brother said, he would believe it unconditionally.
"Okay, I'll find a quiet place now."
The conversation between the two brothers did not escape Fifth Elder Brother's ears.
Although he did not interject, he had the same feeling in his heart as Sixth Brother, which was that if Ninth Younger Brother said he had thought of a way, it must be foolproof.
The three brothers drove the carriage to a secluded and flat grove, and Sixth Brother pulled on the reins.
"Ninth Brother, I think here is good."
In fact, Mo Jiuye was not too worried. He just considered that the identities of the three brothers were rather special, and they were also with Mr. Si Meng, so he wanted to avoid any possible trouble as much as possible.
He opened the carriage door to take a look.
"Sixth Brother, this location is not bad, let's do it here."
There was no time to delay. He planned to take out Mr. Si Meng's heart blood before he woke up.
"Sixth Brother, stand guard outside and respond immediately if there is any danger. Fifth Brother, come help me in the carriage."
Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother nodded solemnly, each attending to their own duties.
Fifth Brother entered the carriage and eagerly asked, "Ninth Brother, what can Fifth Brother do to help?"
Mo Jiuye did not explain immediately, but took out two surgical knives given to him by his wife.
"Fifth Brother, take this old man's shirt off."
Fifth Brother did not know what Ninth Younger Brother was going to do, but after just a moment of stunned hesitation, he started to act.
Although sterilization steps were omitted, the lighting requirements for surgery were still extremely high, after all Mr. Si Meng's life could not be harmed yet.
Mo Jiuye thought for a moment, helplessly took out a small but powerful flashlight and a small white porcelain bottle from his package.
Additionally, considering that Mr. Si Meng's heartblood was highly toxic, he could not risk his and his brothers' lives with it.
Mo Jiuye also gave himself and Fifth Brother each a pair of medical rubber gloves.
Seeing him take out so many strange things, Fifth Brother's eyes were not enough.
"Ninth Brother, what are these?"
Mo Jiuye had already anticipated that taking these things out in front of his two elder brothers would surely lead to questioning.
He calmly said, "These were all given to me by the foreigners. I originally thought these things were useless, but your sister-in-law was thoughtful and worried that we might need them on the road, so she insisted on stuffing them into my package."
Speaking of foreigners, Fifth Brother was truly convinced.
Not to mention anything else, just the glass used to build the house, he had heard from Eighth Brother that it was purchased by Ninth Brother and his wife from the foreigners.
So if the foreigners could take out such special glass, not to mention these little things!
Mo Jiuye did not know what Fifth Brother was thinking. He also knew that his explanation was too vague. Anyway, having an excuse was better than not having one.
At this moment, he had already entered a state of full concentration.
His cutting skills were not as professional as He Zhiran's, especially since he could not harm Mr. Si Meng's life. So at this moment, his mood was extremely nervous.
He tried hard to recall what his wife looked like when she helped others with surgery, quickly locating the right position. The sharp surgical knife soon cut through Mr. Si Meng's skin and flesh.
Seeing Ninth Brother's actions, Fifth Brother was also sweating for him.
Although Mo Jiuye understood some principles, after all, it was his first time doing it, so his movements were naturally a little clumsy.
Fortunately, everything was going according to his plan, with no deviations.
Fifth Brother, who was staring closely at Mo Jiuye's actions, suddenly heard him say urgently, "Fifth Brother, get ready to collect the blood."
Mo Jiuye had quickly identified the aorta at the center of Mr. Si Meng's heart, which was where the heartblood was located.
Fifth Brother hurriedly brought the porcelain bottle to the right position and removed the stopper.
In order to prevent the toxic heartblood from splashing, Mo Jiuye's actions suddenly became extremely gentle.
He gently fixed the blood vessel with forceps, then pulled up a section and aligned it with the bottle opening.
With another raise of his hand holding the knife, Mr. Si Meng's heartblood smoothly flowed into the porcelain bottle.
Mo Jiuye operated skillfully, and the toxic blood did not splash at all, which relieved him.
The heartblood that slowly flowed out was pitch black in color. Fifth Brother collected about half a bottle before the color gradually became normal.
Mo Jiuye was not too shocked by this situation as he understood it from reading books.
However, it was different for Fifth Brother. This half bottle of pitch-black heartblood completely exceeded his knowledge.
"Ninth Brother, what is this?"
Sixth Brother, who was standing guard outside the carriage, was also very curious about what was happening inside when he heard the conversation between the two brothers. If he didn't have to keep a lookout at his post, he would have gone in to ask about it long ago.
Since taking Mr. Si Meng's heartblood was to resolve the current crisis, Mo Jiuye certainly had to explain it clearly to his two elder brothers.
So while he was stitching up Mr. Si Meng's wound, he told them what he knew.
After listening to Ninth Brother's account, the two brothers let out a sigh of relief, but also felt somewhat terrified in retrospect.
If it wasn't for Ninth Brother's quick reaction just now, Mr. Si Meng really would have activated his life-worm to commit suicide, then detonated the toxic blood in his heart, and at that time not only would they be unable to save their father and elder brothers, even the three of them could have possibly died along with him.
They didn't expect Ninth Brother to be so knowledgeable and understand these things.
Especially Fifth Brother, who witnessed Ninth Brother successfully extract Mr. Si Meng's heartblood with his own eyes. His admiration for Ninth Brother was now indescribable in words.
While Mo Jiuye explained things clearly, he had also finished treating Mr. Si Meng's wound.
Fifth Brother carefully covered the porcelain bottle and put it away safely before helping to dress Mr. Si Meng again.
Only then did Mo Jiuye take the porcelain bottle containing the toxic heartblood and carefully pour some into the bottle containing Mr. Si Meng's life-worm.
In the lamplight they could see that the life-worm in the bottle became especially excited when it encountered its master's toxic heartblood, and showed no intention of escaping from the bottle at all.
This indicated that Mo Jiuye's approach was correct. As long as this life-worm could continually come into contact with its master's heartblood, it would stay alive. Even if its master tried to control it to commit suicide, it would not obey.
