Chapter 7 The Beginning of the Edge
On the second day of the winter hunt, as on the first day, the men went into the mountains just after the men had eaten at dawn. After Lin Tian and the other clansmen cleaned up, they also went into the mountains and forests to collect firewood, and everyone had a clear division of labor, cutting firewood and carrying firewood.
Today, Lin Tian and the two friends work to send firewood back to the station, although sending firewood is harder than chopping firewood, but everyone who sent firewood has no complaints. For example, yesterday Lin Tian was chopping firewood, and today was sending firewood, and everyone will have their turn, so it is fair to pour, so no one complains.
On the way to deliver firewood, Lin Tian often stopped with his friends to take a break, after all, there is still a gap between them and real adults in terms of physical strength and endurance. But whether it is Lin Tian or Gesang, they still struggle to keep up with the footsteps of adults, and they have never fallen behind, everyone's hearts are for the Li people, and everyone is united for the Li people. In the hearts of the firewood collectors, although firewood is boring and a little hard, everyone has never slackened, after all, firewood is basically a riskless job than those who go into the mountains to hunt.
In the afternoon, Lin Tian and the firewood delivery man returned to the station with a batch of firewood, and saw the commotion in the station. After Lin Tian put the firewood, he stepped forward curiously. Squeezed into the crowd, I saw that the clan elder was treating the wounded clansmen, and the injured clansmen had an extremely long and deep wound on their chests, and the flesh was tumbling outward, which was very terrifying.
"Uncle... Uncle, what's wrong with you? How so, my father, them? The little fat man Tiewa squeezed into the crowd and ran to the side of the injured person and said.
The injured man wanted to answer Tiewa, but was stopped by the clan elder.
"Your father and they are fine, they are still collecting prey in the mountains and forests, and they will probably come back in a while." The patriarch paused and continued: "Your uncle found a wild boar and was about to kill it and bring it back, but he didn't expect this beast to be shot at the vital point, and it was very powerful, and he went crazy before he died, and desperately attacked your uncle, and the others finally subdued the wild boar and rescued your uncle from under the wild boar's mouth, but the fierce wild boar still stabbed your uncle with its fangs. ”
"Then what about my uncle, will it be fine", the little fat man Tiewa asked the clan elder.
"Tiewa, what can your uncle do, your uncle and I are still the best hunters of the Li tribe, you can eat delicious wild boar at night." The injured man spoke visibly weakly, his brows furrowed, and he seemed to be in great pain.
Once again, the patriarch stopped the injured man from continuing to speak, and when he saw the people around him, he said what everyone feared most. "Although I used herbs to stop the bleeding and sprinkled it with a powder for skin and flesh healing, the wound was too big to heal."
Tiewa and the others trembled when they heard this, and they were silent, each thinking about it.
Seeing this, Lin Tian thought that he couldn't hide it, and he had to find a way to save the fat man's uncle. So he pulled Gesang next to him out of the crowd and told her that he had a way to save Tiewa's uncle. Gesang was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Lin Tian what he could do.
"It's too late now, time is pressing, saving people is important, you quickly tell me to slaughter animals yesterday, where are the small intestines of those animals? And you have a needle, you go and get me a big needle, and we will meet here. After Lin Tian asked where the small intestine was placed, he hurriedly ran to the Li clan's room.
Lin Tian found the small intestine in the room, took out a small intestine and cut it with a dagger, scraped off the fat, and then scraped out a layer of film under the skin, took it to the fire to dry, and then rolled it into a thin rope, which is the intestine used in modern society in the past. Lin Tian didn't care whether there was disinfection or not, whether there were parasites, and the time was tight, so he ran to the place where he came and went. Thinking that this era should still be very pure and clean, and the weather is so cold, it is estimated that there is no problem, Lin Tian comforted himself in his heart.
Lin Tian walked through the crowd, walked to the side of the clan elder and said to the clan elder: "Clan elder, there is a local method in my original hometown to solve this wound, and it can be healed by sewing Uncle Tiewa's injured part like sewing clothes with this intestine in my hand." ”
"It's like sewing clothes to meet flesh and blood, isn't the thread also growing in the flesh, how to heal"? The clan elder was puzzled, and the onlookers also questioned Lin Tian's methods, after all, people are flesh and blood, and what Lin Tian said was unheard of.
"Don't worry, my original hometown people also often go to the mountains to hunt, and after being bitten by wild beasts, they all use this method to stitch up the wounds, which are extracted from the intestines of animals, and will eventually be absorbed by the human body."
The clan elder looked at Lin Tian's sworn face, and said to the clansmen around him: "We don't have any other way to solve Gu Tai (Tiewa's uncle)'s injury, since Xiao Tian has a way to solve it, you might as well give it a try." Subsequently, the clan elder asked Lin Tian to do it, and Lin Tian said to wait for the needle of Ge Sauna to arrive.
It's still the old grandfather of the clan who has insight, and he is worthy of being a person who has traveled to this continent, and his knowledge is extraordinary!
When Lin Tian saw Gesang handing him a needle, he was startled, this thing that was thicker than a refill was also a needle. Gesang saw Lin Tian's expression and said, "I don't know how big the bigger needle you said is, so I found you all the needles of all the sizes, and you can see which one you want." ”
I see, no wonder I have been taking a needle for so long, Gesang is really a little clever ghost.
Lin Tian found an iron needle thinner than the lead of the pen, roasted it on the fire, and then passed through the gut and began to stitch the needle "operation". Lin Tian looked at this wound, it was very infiltrating, and he couldn't start for a long time, and finally the clan elder completed this "operation" under Lin Tian's guidance.
The injured Gu Tai expressed his gratitude and praise to Lin Tian after the stitching, and the people of the Li nationality were so straightforward in temperament, they could say whatever they wanted, and they didn't feel sensational at all. Lin Tian was still very unaccustomed to it, and in the face of Gu Tai's thanks and praise, he finally reluctantly accepted it, and only then did he stop everyone's repeated sensational words.
In the evening, the patriarch returned with the rest of the hunters. Everyone was surprised and delighted to learn that Gu Tai had sewn up the wound under the soil method of Lin Tian, and everyone also knew the importance of this suture method to them, which could save a lot of lives, and people who survived in the mountains and forests would inevitably encounter wild beasts, and those who could not heal from big wounds before had to die. The sensational words began to bombard Lin Tian again, and Lin Tian had no choice but to stand up and explain.
"Tiewa and I are good friends, good brothers, and a member of the Li people, and the Li people are my closest relatives, which is what I should do." Everyone was very satisfied with Lin Tian's answer, and felt more and more that Lin Tian was born from the Li tribe, and he didn't have any life at all.
After hearing Lin Tian's words, the two hardcore friends of Lin Tian, Gesang and Tiewa, had the same tears and different eyes in their eyes.
