Chapter 47: The Crappy Tailor

Under the concerted efforts of the five people, the man in black was still pulled up without danger, but after seeing it clearly, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

This man in black was only in his twenties, his face was pale, his facial features were angular, but there was a wound on his abdomen and back that was more than a foot long.

Chen Xu hurriedly pressed his hand on the neck of the man in black and felt it and said, "It's still alive, you need to be treated quickly!" ”

"It's too late, it's only two or three miles away from Xiahe Village, it is estimated that these people are from Qingyang Town, he should leave quickly, and everything will be talked about when he goes back." Uncle Ma waved his hand, and the two villagers hurriedly carried the man in black on his back, and then a group of people helped each other to leave quickly, and the blood dripping from the man in black was quickly washed away by the torrential rain, and no trace was seen anymore.

Chen Xu wanted to save the man in black, almost an instinct in the concept of later generations, and it was driven by morality, and he didn't think too much.

And Uncle Ma wants to save the man in black, more to consider the consequences.

If the three people returned, they searched for the man in black in front of the cave, and the traces left by a group of people hiding in the cave just now were likely to be found, although the fire was extinguished, but the rain flowing from the clothes of several people could not be cleared, maybe in order to hide people's eyes and ears, or in order to kill people, there is a great possibility to catch up, although the mountain road is rugged, but the human legs can't outrun the horse's legs, and there is only one consequence of being caught up.

"Quick, there is still a mile to reach the fork in the road with Xiahe Village, and it will be much safer after the fork in the road!" Uncle Ma kept urging.

Two young men with stronger bodies took turns carrying the men in black on their backs, and kept hurrying on the mountain road against the violent storm.

In a hurry, the group finally rushed through a three-way intersection, and the road to Xiaohe Village was even narrower and more rugged, but several people still kept wiping the rain on their faces and dared to stop.

"Huh~~" In the midst of the lightning and thunder, there seemed to be the sound of horses neighing from the direction behind him.

"Hide~" Uncle Ma's face changed greatly, and a group of people immediately dispersed and hid in the thorn bushes on both sides of the path, roaring in the thunder, lightning and torrential rain, and after less than three minutes, sure enough, a horse galloped along the path and quickly rushed in front of a group of people.

"Don't move anyone!" Uncle Ma commanded in a low voice.

It took seven or eight minutes for the horse to return along the path and rush past the crowd again, and soon heard a roar from the torrential rain: "There is no trace here, it must have fallen under the cliff, go back to your life!" ”

"Yes~"

In an instant, the sound of horses' hooves was quickly drowned out by the sound of the torrential rain.

"Whew~~"

Everyone let out a long breath and hid for about two more minutes, and indeed found that the three people had left, and then they picked up the man in black and went back on the road.

It was only six or seven miles away from Xiaohe Village, so several people took turns to carry their backs, and everyone was tired and weak, and finally rushed back to Xiaohe Village after half an hour.

By this time, the sky had begun to brighten, the torrential rain had gradually weakened, the thunder had rolled to the southeast, the lightning had become sparse, and a sudden heavy rain was finally coming to an end.

Looking at his house, Chen Xu breathed a long sigh of relief, the crumbling thatched hut was still very strong, and it didn't collapse in the storm, but it looked a little crooked.

Chen Jiang and Xing'er were drenched and kept moving the things in the hut to the new house.

"Mother, don't move, help me boil a pot of hot water first!" Chen Xu hurriedly ordered.

"Good!" Chen Jiang watched a group of people carry back a bloody man in black, and hurriedly agreed to boil water.

"Xing'er, help me take out the leftover hemostatic medicine from yesterday!"

"Uncle Ma, just put him on the ground!"

"Quick, get some hay mats!"

A group of people shouted, and soon put the man in black in the living room of the newly renovated house, and spread a layer of dry thatch left over from the house.

"Sting~" Chen Xu directly tore the blood-stained clothes of the man in black with his hands, so that all the wounds were exposed.

The breath of the man in black was very weak, his breathing was intermittent and almost inaudible, and only the carotid artery could still feel a slight pulsation.

Excessive blood loss and being doused by heavy rain caused the body temperature to drop sharply, and if you don't treat it quickly, I'm afraid you won't be able to save it.

"Brother, the hemostatic medicine is for you!" Apricot came in with three bamboo tubes.

"Quick, go get me a bowl of clean water again!"

Chen Xu took the bamboo tube and instructed while opening it, Xing'er immediately ran out quickly, and quickly poured a cup of warm water from a clay bowl.

Drinking cold boiled water and warm water was requested by Chen Xu, since he woke up and knew that he had met the Qin Dynasty, so he asked Chen Jiang and Xing'er to drink boiled water every day, not raw water, so there was a crockpot at home every day to hold boiled water.

In fact, the reason why the average life expectancy of ancient people is very short, in addition to war, most of them are because of various diseases, and various parasitic diseases are particularly prominent, in this era there is no habit of drinking boiled water, especially ordinary people, the poor people at home have eaten the last meal and the next meal, they are worried about eating and drinking all day long, where is there still the mood and mind to boil water to drink, at home is good to say, what to do when working outside, what to do when going out? Therefore, everyone is catching the river water to drink the river water, catching the spring water to drink the spring water, catching the rain to drink the rainwater, basically there is no concept of preventing and controlling parasitic diseases, especially children, and they also like to find all kinds of messy things to eat, so they are more likely to get all kinds of diseases, and they are basically not cured, they grow up if they are lucky, and they die at the age of a few years if they are unlucky.

Pour half a tael of yellow into the man in black with warm water, and then rinse the wound on his abdomen several times with light salt water, and after Chen Jiang's water boiled, Chen Xu poured out half of it in a clay pot, and threw a few fine linen into the jar and boiled for two minutes before taking it out.

"Mother, go and bring me the sewing needle to use!"

"I'll take it, I'll get it!" Apricot ran into the room and quickly ran over with a copper needle.

Looking at this needle, which was six or seven centimeters long and two millimeters in diameter at the thickest point, like a big nail, Chen Xu's face shook a few times and he still got a very thin fine linen to wear through the needle's nose and eye, and then put it upside down and boiled it for half a minute, before he brought it up, and then under the gaze of seven or eight pairs of eyes, like the most lame tailor, he sewed the wound on the abdomen of the man in black with twine one by one.
