One divination a day, a trainee celestial master

Chapter 35 Successful Soul Summoning

As the dark gray soul completely disappeared into Chen Sancan's body on the hospital bed, Jiang Shou, who was barely holding on, could no longer hold on.

The intensely focused spellcasting he had just performed not only drained half of the true essence in his dantian, but also seemed to have drained his vital energy and spirit.

A wave of weakness washed over Jiang Shou, and he felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, as if countless needles were pricking his head.

"I can't take it anymore... I can't take it..."

Jiang Shou's legs went weak, and his body staggered uncontrollably, taking two steps back.

Li Xiuju, who had been kneeling on the ground and kowtowing frantically, raised her head when she heard the noise. When she saw the young Taoist priest who had been performing magic like a god descending to earth just moments before, now pale as paper and swaying precariously, she was terrified.

"Little Immortal Master!" Li Xiuju exclaimed. Ignoring her own leg injury, she rushed forward almost on both hands and feet, limping as she held onto Jiang Shou's arm tightly, afraid that he would fall to the ground.

Just as Li Xiuju helped Jiang Shou to his feet.

"Beep..." "Beep..." "Beep...!"

In the originally quiet and oppressive intensive care unit, the vital signs monitor, which had a monotonous sound and a waveform that was almost a straight line, suddenly emitted a rapid beeping sound with a distinct rhythm and even a rising pitch!

Li Xiuju's hand, which was supporting Jiang Shou, suddenly stiffened.

She felt as if she had been electrocuted, and turned her head in disbelief, staring intently at the monitoring screen next to the hospital bed.

On the screen, the slow green waveform that was almost touching the bottom line suddenly jumped up sharply with a peak!

Then, the second one! The third one!

The waveform was like an engine that had stopped suddenly being powered back on, and it began to dance on the screen with a steady, powerful rhythm!

"This...this is..." Li Xiuju's lips began to tremble uncontrollably, and she looked completely dumbfounded.

Almost at the same time.

"Beep-beep-beep!" The blood oxygen monitor held between Chen Sancan's fingers emitted a series of short beeps indicating that the indicators were rapidly recovering.

Under Li Xiuju's gaze, which was almost bloodshot, lay the man on the hospital bed who had been in a coma for more than half a month and had been sentenced to death countless times by doctors...

His withered right index finger twitched slightly, but it definitely did!

"Sanchan...Sanchan!" Li Xiuju's tears flowed like a burst dam, covering her face.

She covered her mouth tightly, afraid that crying out would disturb everything and then she would wake up from the dream.

"Don't...don't just stand there..." Jiang Shou, leaning against the wall, gasped for breath and nudged Li Xiuju's shoulder. "Quickly...press the call bell and call the doctor..."

"Oh! Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Call the doctor!" Li Xiuju rushed to the bedside in a panic and frantically pressed the emergency call button on the bedside table.

"Doctor! Doctor! My husband moved! He moved!!" Li Xiuju rushed outside again, shouting in anguish.

The hallway erupted in chaos. "There's movement in bed 4? Quick! Get the stretcher ready!"

"Director Liu! The brainwaves of patient in bed 4 have become active again!"

Less than half a minute later, a series of hurried footsteps echoed in the corridor outside the intensive care unit.

"Quick! Bed number 4! Prepare for resuscitation!" The on-duty doctor and nurse rushed into the ward, pushing the resuscitation cart.

Looking at the ward that had suddenly become chaotic and crowded with doctors in white coats, Jiang Shou took a deep breath.

He reached into his inner pocket and touched the scorching heat emanating from the scepter.

"Mission accomplished!" Jiang Shou was overjoyed and forgot all about his weakness.

He cleverly took advantage of the blind spots in the doctors' and nurses' view as they surrounded the bed for emergency treatment, and quietly slipped out of the intensive care unit, hugging the wall.

"If I don't run now, and the doctor asks how this medical miracle happened, if Li Xiuju says anything about it, I'll be treated like a guinea pig and dissected for research!"

Jiang Shou lowered his head, quickened his pace, and walked towards the stairwell like a thief.

They were about to turn into the stairwell and escape.

"Damn it, what bad luck!" Jiang Shou let out a desperate wail in his heart as he reached the corner of the stairs.

Two police officers, a woman and a man, walked towards us.

Leading the way was none other than the dashing and beautiful female criminal police captain!

Jiang Shou subconsciously wanted to lower his head and turn around, pretending to look at the scenery to avoid them. But the stairwell was such a small place, and his highly recognizable handsome face had already crashed into Xia Qiu's line of sight.

The moment Xia Qiu saw Jiang Shou, her beautiful peach blossom eyes widened in surprise.

She hadn't forgotten that yesterday this guy, dressed in bizarre clothes, went to the victim's family to swindle them! And today he actually changed his clothes and came straight to the hospital's intensive care unit?!

"How dare they! This is utterly lawless!"

Xia Qiu's anger surged up instantly, and his breathing became heavy.

With her angry breathing, her already taut light blue police shirt was stretched even more, making her chest appear even more magnificent and breathtaking.

"Gulp." Jiang Shou swallowed hard, completely losing his composure, but now was definitely not the time to appreciate the scenery.

"Well... Officer Xia, what a coincidence. I'm visiting a relative, I'll be going now!" Jiang Shouqian chuckled twice, then tried to slip away.

Xia Qiu blocked the middle of the stairs, her eyes sharp enough to kill: "Stop! You failed to scam someone at their house yesterday, and now you dare to come to the hospital?! What kind of audacity have you found?! I'm going to enforce the law now..."

Xia Qiu's right hand had already reached for his waist, ready to put the silver bracelet on this audacious fellow.

At this critical moment!

The male police officer walking ahead of Xia Qiu suddenly pointed to the intensive care unit at the end of the corridor and shouted in shock:

"Captain Xia! Captain Xia! Look! In Chen Sancan's ward... the doctors have rushed in! It looks... it looks like Chen Sancan has woken up!"

"Hmm... I'm awake." Xia Qiu turned her head and looked in the direction the policeman pointed to the end of the corridor.

"Ah...what? You're awake?!" Xia Qiu was jolted, her mind blank for a moment.

The intensive care unit was packed with four or five doctors and nurses in white coats, filled with excited medical jargon and Li Xiuju's cries. The scene was chaotic and noisy.

Xia Qiu didn't care about Jiang Shou; her body was faster than her brain. She took long strides and ran wildly towards the ward at the end of the corridor.

As Xia Qiu rushed to the ward door, she was blocked by the nurses on the outside.

She stood at the doorway, peeking at the hospital bed through the gaps between the busy doctors and nurses.

Upon closer inspection, they found the man on the hospital bed, a man whom the county's best neurosurgeon had declared "highly unlikely to ever wake up," and who had been teetering on the brink of death for over half a month...

At that moment, he actually had his eyes open!

Although his eyes were still somewhat unfocused and he couldn't speak because of the tubes in his mouth, Chen Sancan's eyes were indeed slowly moving, following the beam of the doctor's flashlight! The doctor was conducting a simple consciousness check on him!

Xia Qiu gasped. In that instant, an indescribable electric current shot from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, making her scalp tingle!

"Your husband's condition is such that no matter how long he stays in the ICU, he can't be saved... I have a talisman; I'm really here to help him!"

She turned around with some difficulty and looked at the stairwell she had just been standing at.

The stairwell was deserted; the person had long since vanished.
