"Taken away?" Hu Ma listened, utterly confused. He already felt something was strange.
The old housekeeper also seemed frightened. Looking anxious, he was about to reach out while speaking, but Hu Ma suddenly glanced at him. Not fully trusting this housekeeper, who had no credentials, Hu Ma did not let him approach.
The old housekeeper, understanding the situation, quickly stopped and said to Hu Ma, "Please, benefactor, try first. Check if our young lady's pulse is normal. First, observe her palm. Then, check the base of her index and middle fingers, and finally, probe the base of her ring and little fingers to see if there's anything unusual."
"No need to try!"
At this point, the nearby doctor interjected, "I've checked her pulse. It's very strange. Her palm is ice-cold, and her pulse is almost nonexistent. However, her palm occasionally moves, and her index and middle fingers twitch intermittently."
