Twenty-eighth, the Tao exhausted himself as a prisoner
After bidding farewell to Yi Wuji's father and daughter, Gongsun Yu and Lu Fu returned to Chang'an City in the evening.
Clean up again, the medical hall has been arranged, medicine cabinets, guillotines, mortars, etc. are all available, and the plaque with the four characters of "Boji Medical Center" is still placed there, Gongsun Yu wiped it again and again, and it has been wiped several times.
Gongsun Yu saw that Lu Fu was busy concocting herbs, and he was not in a hurry about the plaque, so he asked, "Brother Lu, do you want to hang the plaque now?" ”
"Uncle Yi is right, you still have to wait for your uncle to inquire clearly, if that guy Yang Li is still there, then it's best not to hang it up yet."
"Everything in the hospital is ready, when can we open?"
Lu Fu smiled and said, "Do you want to pick an auspicious day to open?" ”
"What auspicious day do you want, I think it's tomorrow."
"I also think that if it is going to open, it will open tomorrow, and what auspicious day will be needed."
So I decided to open tomorrow.
In the first three days of opening, no one really came in to see the disease. Lu Fumo was silent, only caring about concocting medicinal materials all day long, Gongsun Yu began to be a little anxious, complaining that no one came to see the doctor: "It's been three days, why don't there be any patients, Brother Lu, what should I do?" ”
"Don't worry, brother, someone will come slowly."
At noon on the fourth day, it was autumn and the sun was abundant, Lu Fu hurriedly took out the herbs and put them on the roof to dry, and Gongsun Yu sat alone in the front hall. At this moment, two soldiers entered, one with a cane in his hand, walking with a limp, supported by another companion with a cloth belt wrapped around his head, and the two were ragged and dusty, as if they were fleeing. As soon as he entered the door, he sat down on the ground with his head wrapped in a strap, and gasped, "Doctor, help us." ”
Gongsun Yu hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look, and saw that the two of them seemed to have been injured in a fight, their lips were chapped, and they were probably very thirsty, so he poured two bowls of water for them to drink, and then led them into the left room to heal.
Gongsun Yu first untied the cloth strip of the head injury patient and found that the head was bruised after being hit by a heavy object; When he touched his skull first, he found that the skull was not broken, and the tendons were not broken, but the blood was swollen and painful.
So Gongsun Yu first used massage techniques to lift his strength, neck, muscles and bones, and then took a clean white cloth and wrapped it tightly around his head.
After a while, Gongsun Yu took out a wooden stick, this wooden stick is also called Zhenzi, which is the unique tool of their Gongsun family to treat external injuries.
The so-called Zhenqi is actually a wooden stick, about half a meter long, round as big as money, and looks like a rolling pin. Vibration is because of the injury, the qi and blood coagulate, the pain is swollen and hard, and the vibration is slightly vibrated to make the qi and blood circulate and disperse, then the pain gradually decreases, and the swelling and pain gradually disappears.
After the vibration, the wounded man's bruised area was slightly swollen, so he gently patted his foot with the vibrating spur, and its effect was to make his five organs get the upper and lower organs, and the blood was dispersed, at this time the injured person's face began to be rosy, and Gongsun Yu hurriedly asked him: "Do you feel nauseous and want to vomit now?" ”
The man replied, "Now I feel very relaxed, and the whole person is very energetic, but there is still a little pain in the bruises." ”
Gongsun Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, you can rest for a while, and I'll do it with you one more time later." ”
Another young man who was being supported had been lying on the ground, and Lu Fu also stepped forward to inquire when he saw this: "Young man, look at your pain, where are you in pain?" ”
The man lying on the ground looked very painful, gritted his teeth and said, "Big brother, I fell from a height, it is estimated that my vertebrae have been broken, and now I can't stand up, and it hurts when I move." ”
At this time, Gongsun Yu had already done the initial treatment for the person with the head injury before, and then ran over to check on the injured person lying on the ground. Gongsun Yu untied the man's clothes, looked at it carefully, and found that his spine was not lightly injured, and if he did not correct it in time, it was estimated that he would not be able to stand up in the future. So he said to Lu Fu: "Brother Lu, bring some plank hemp rope and make a set of barrels to help him tie it." ”
Lu Fu answered the call and entered the back room, and after a while, he took out some planks and made barrels with Gongsun Yu. The specific method is: take three inches wide, two inches thick, the length from the waist over the shoulder of one inch of the board, the outside of the board is flat, towards the back of the ridge needs to be carved into a concave shape with a knife, so that it can be used with the backbone of the flesh and skin, and according to its length divided into five points: the first point from the left and right sides with each oblique drill two holes; The second to third, fourth, and fifth points are drilled obliquely from the left and right sides, and each hole is worn with hemp rope. The first hemp rope is crossed over the shoulders and under the armpits to the patient's chest, and the rest can be tied parallel to the abdomen.
This barrel of wood is also a unique tool of the Gongsun family, specializing in the treatment of spinal injuries. After making the barrel of wood, Gongsun Yu ordered the patient to lie on his stomach, first stepped on his shoulders with two feet, tied the planks to his back one by one, and ordered Lu Fu to take out the cotton wool soft cloth and put it close to the body, so as to prevent the instrument from grinding pain or abrasion to the skin.
In fact, this appliance is similar to today's lumbar brace.
It takes a lot of effort to tie the barrel wood, and it should be slow rather than fast, Gongsun Yu and Lu Fu tied it for an hour, and then helped him apply some herbs to disperse the stasis, and made him sit up first.
The patient can sit up slowly and feel no pain, after a while, Gongsun Yu asked him to stand up again, at first he still needed to use crutches to dare to stand, and slowly with Gongsun Yu's encouragement, he could stand without crutches.
After tossing for an afternoon, seeing that dusk was approaching, Gongsun Yu told them to come back tomorrow for a follow-up, but who knew that the two still refused to leave.
After asking carefully, I learned that these two young men were originally one of the five thousand warriors who followed General Li Ling on the expedition, the tall one with a back injury was called Zeng Dengyao, and the one with a short head injury was called Wu Youhuan. They encountered the main force of the Xiongnu Shan Yu in Junji Mountain, and were surrounded by the 30,000 cavalry regiments of the Xiongnu. At that time, General Li Ling ordered the army to be stationed between the two mountains, with a cart as a camp, and he himself led the troops to rush out of the camp to set up a team, with halberds and shields in the front row, and bows and crossbows in the back row, to meet the Hun cavalry.
The Hun cavalry saw that the Han army was small, so they attacked the Han army camp, Li Ling waved his division to fight, and the Hun soldiers fell in response. The Hun army was defeated and retreated up the mountain, and the Han army pursued and killed thousands of Hun soldiers.
But after all, the Huns were several times more than the Han army, so after three days of fierce fighting, the Han army fought and retreated to the south, and was finally besieged by the Huns in a small valley.
Speaking of this, the short man named Wu Youhuan was so excited that he slapped the counter, his face was flushed, and said: "Damn, I knew that I had cut him down with a knife." ”
"Brother, what do you dare to do?" Lu Fu, who was listening attentively, asked.
Wu Youhuan took a sip of water and continued: "Guan Dang was originally a military marquis, cowardly as a mouse, and when he wanted to escape, he was caught by me, so he handed it over to the school captain Du Jin; Originally, such a thing could have been hacked to death with a knife, but thinking that everyone had been together for a few years, he opened the net, and the lieutenant also reprimanded him without disposing of him, who knew that he ran to surrender to the Huns while we were not paying attention; Originally, we were brave and good at fighting, and we had already killed most of the Huns, and they did not dare to attack us again, and we had a chance to break through at that time; Who knows that after Guan Yong surrendered, he said our current situation, saying that our army has no backup, and the arrows have been exhausted, now only General Li Ling and Cheng'an Hou Han Yannian's 800 people are in the front of the formation, respectively, with yellow and white as the banner, send elite soldiers to shoot the standard-bearer to break the formation, just act according to the plan, our army was defeated, and Cheng Anhou died when breaking through, seeing this scene, General Li Ling dismounted and surrendered in order to enable us to escape. ”
Speaking of this, Wu Youhuan and Zeng Dengyao were both crying.
At this time, Gongsun Yu and Lu Fu both went up to comfort them, telling them not to be too sad and to recuperate.
After hearing General Li Ling's surrender, Lu Fu hurriedly asked: "About a month ago, when we were living in Xiaoyao, we heard the housekeeper in Li Ling's mansion say that General Li Ling's life and death were unknown, and now I know that it was a surrender, is it really surrender?" ”
Wu Youhuan said angrily: "No, General Li didn't really surrender, General Li always wanted to die in battle, he also sighed and said that the defeat was so good, it was better to die, but we strongly persuaded him, saying that the general you are powerful to the Huns, Your Majesty will not let you die, you can think of other ways to go back in the future, like Zhao Ponu, the Marquis of Xunye, although he was captured by the Huns, but later fled back, His Majesty still treated him with courtesy; At that time, when we broke through, his surrender was also to buy time for us to escape, otherwise we would not have been able to escape. ”
"And how many of you escaped?" Lufu asked.
"There are four or five hundred people in all, and when they break out, they scatter and flee; I ran with Deng Yao, who knew that he slipped and fell on the way and injured his back, so I ran away with him on my back, and absconded all the way here, fortunately I met you, we were penniless, and you also helped us heal, life-saving grace, no tooth unforgettable. At this point, the two of them burst into tears.
Gongsun Yu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort them: "Both of them are warriors who serve the country, and they are worthy of our admiration. ”
That night, Gongsun Yu arranged for the two of them to rest in the side room of the front hall, and told them to rest well, so that the injuries would heal quickly.
