Chapter 89: Resistance from Space-Time

~8 min read 1,428 words

"Medical Officer Han has examined Her Highness, you must go and fetch him quickly," Lai Mama cried out.

Xiao Moting's sword-like brows were tightly knit.

He had to wait for Bai Wei.

Lai Mama was so anxious she stamped her feet.

"Medical Officer Han is at the Imperial Physician Office; he will surely come."

She grabbed Xiao Moting and pulled him incessantly, "Hurry and come with me, if we don't go now, it will be too late."

Xiao Moting glanced at the wardrobe.

Bai Wei went out to buy medicine...

She was not there!

The Imperial Physician Office was not far; he could return very quickly.

He leaped up and jumped onto the city wall.

Just as Xiao Moting left, a row of messages appeared on the wardrobe.

"Xiao Moting, don't leave yet!"

"Your mother is suffering from cardiac arrest; there are only four minutes of rescue time, come back."

However, there was no response.

Xiao Moting had already been pulled away by Lai Mama to find Medical Officer Han.

The only person left in the Cold Palace was a personal palace maid named Caiyun.

Seeing that Consort Yun had lost her breath.

Caiyun did not understand medicine and was terrified by this scene, crying and shouting.

"Your Highness! This servant... this servant will go fetch hot water for you to warm your body..."

"Please hold on, once Medical Officer Han arrives in a moment, you will be saved."

After speaking, she ran out in a panic.

Inside the Recreational Vehicle.

Bai Wei stood before the wardrobe, pacing back and forth in anxiety.

Fortunately, she had returned a few seconds late just now, otherwise, she would not have known that Consort Yun was in cardiac arrest.

But Xiao Moting had been dragged away by Lai Mama.

She was a graduate of a medical university and knew very well.

For a patient in cardiac arrest, the golden time for rescue is only a short four minutes; if it exceeds that, it is very difficult to save them.

Within four minutes, Xiao Moting definitely could not make it back.

And even if he arrived in time, he would not know how to save Consort Yun.

She could not explain it clearly to him in just a few words.

What on earth should she do?

Xiao Moting and Consort Yun, mother and son, had not seen each other for over a decade, yet after finally reuniting, were they to face life and death separation immediately?

This was too painful for him.

Bai Wei raised her head and looked at the wardrobe.

Perhaps the only person who could save Consort Yun now...

Was herself.

She bent down and opened a First Aid Kit in the vehicle.

Inside the First Aid Kit were a Portable Charging Defibrillator, other medical instruments, and emergency medication for surgery.

She had bought these not long ago.

The Beijiang Military Doctor had already learned fracture surgery and simple trauma treatment, so Bai Wei planned to let them study further to improve their medical skills.

Therefore, she had purchased this batch of equipment, intending to send it to the Military Doctors after Xiao Moting returned to Beijiang.

Bai Wei lifted the box with effort and walked to the wardrobe.

She took a deep breath and climbed into the wardrobe.

"Clatter."

The wardrobe door was shut heavily by her.

The surroundings were suddenly plunged into darkness, and all sounds from the outside world seemed to be cut off in an instant.

"Please, it must work."

Holding the First Aid Kit, Bai Wei curled up in the wardrobe, praying desperately in her heart.

She had seen Xiao Moting in the wardrobe.

This meant that although the two were separated by different space-times, they could interact under specific conditions!

She had to go to Daliang!

She had to save Xiao Moting's mother!

A needle-like, sharp pain pierced through Bai Wei's head.

"Hiss!"

She clutched her head tightly and bit her lip.

Her entire energy seemed to be sucked away in an instant.

Bai Wei's body felt as if it had fallen into the deep sea, with invisible pressure coming from all directions.

All around, hazy streams of light seemed to be flying past her rapidly.

The flowing light gradually disappeared...

Suddenly!

A cold breeze carrying a faint musty smell blew in through the gap in the wardrobe door.

Bai Wei was very familiar with this musty smell.

It was the musty smell of long-uncleaned withered leaves and fallen foliage fermenting!

Her headache vanished.

Bai Wei opened her eyes.

Now, she did not understand.

Was she still on the Recreational Vehicle, or had she already...

Bai Wei took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and pulled open the wardrobe in one go.

In an instant!

The chilly night wind blew against her face, making her hair fly.

The coldness brought by the wind made her skin break out in goosebumps.

Bai Wei's pupils constricted, and her heart pounded violently!

This is...

Before her eyes were several dilapidated palaces.

On the blue brick ground that had not been swept for years, withered leaves were piled up, and beside the mottled red walls, waist-high withered grass grew.

Bai Wei looked ahead, her mind a complete blank!

This place...

Is Daliang!!

"Great!" Bai Wei was so moved that her eyes filled with tears.

She had really succeeded in the Teleportation!

There was no time to delay!

Bai Wei immediately hugged the First Aid Kit and crawled out of the wardrobe.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she stood on the ground, her legs went weak, and she fell to the ground, her knees hitting the blue bricks heavily.

"Hiss, it hurts!"

The sharp pain from her knees made Bai Wei knit her brows tightly.

In the air from all directions, there seemed to be an invisible pressure, pressing down on her so that breathing was difficult and she could not walk.

As expected...

Is this the resistance of space-time isolation?

The air in Daliang was no different from the modern world, yet Bai Wei felt as if she had fallen into the deep sea, bearing the omnipresent pressure of space-time.

She gritted her teeth, stood up with difficulty, and walked toward the palace.

Every step she took was against immense pressure.

"Clatter."

Bai Wei pushed open the palace door and saw Concubine Yun lying on the bed at a glance.

The dim candlelight cast light and shadow on her thin face.

Concubine Yun lay quietly, her eyes tightly shut, without a breath of life.

Bai Wei dragged the medical kit to the bedside.

"Xiao Mama, you must hold on."

She caught her breath, immediately placed the portable Defibrillator on the ground, then unfastened Concubine Yun's clothes and applied the electrode pads.

Bai Wei pressed the switch and picked up the Defibrillator.

"Hold on."

A high-voltage current instantly surged into Concubine Yun's chest.

Bang!

Concubine Yun's body, like a carp leaping, was jolted heavily by the electric shock.

Bai Wei wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"Once more."

The high-voltage current from the modern world passed through Concubine Yun's heart.

The heart had a faint beat.

"Great!" Joy appeared in Bai Wei's eyes.

She tossed aside the Defibrillator, picked up the Adrenaline, and injected it into Concubine Yun.

Immediately after, she pressed her hands onto Concubine Yun's chest and began Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.

Bang...

Bang bang...

Concubine Yun's silent heart finally began to beat again.

Bai Wei's arms were already sore, and her legs were barely able to stand.

She had no time to rest and immediately picked up the Infusion Bottle from the First Aid Kit, pierced the steel needle into Concubine Yun's wrist, and began the infusion.

Concubine Yun was too weak; the emergency medicine in the Infusion Bottle could help her recover her strength.

Seeing Concubine Yun's chest begin to rise and fall again,

Bai Wei could not help but have her legs go weak, and she collapsed by the bedside.

Her nose felt sour, and she was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears.

"That's great, she has finally been resuscitated."

Now, Xiao Moting would not be separated from Consort Yun by life and death.

Bai Wei covered up Consort Yun's clothes.

However, she no longer had the strength to pick up the First Aid Kit.

The energy within her body seemed to have reached its limit.

Bai Wei staggered and fell to the ground.

Outside the palace wall, the sound of faint footsteps could be heard.

Bai Wei used all her strength to lift her head.

Is it Xiao Moting who has returned...
