Chapter 81: Ambush Underground
"What! What happened to Uncle Wu? Li Zhang also stood up and asked loudly when he heard the words of the servant, and his face also showed an anxious look, wasn't it okay when Lu Wu left this morning?
"It's not Lu Bantou, it's the little brother Lu Bantou who brought him to be injured!" The official gasped for a few moments and replied again.
Hearing that it was a wild dog that was injured, Li Zhang was even more anxious, and immediately urged the official to take him over, but after just a few steps, he turned back again, quickly ran upstairs and carried a box down, and then asked the beans who came to take care of the store, and then followed the official along the street.
I don't know how many streets I ran through, and finally the official took Li Zhang to a medical hall, and when Li Zhang broke in, he found Lu Wu standing there covered in blood, and a tall and thin figure lying on the bed next to him, and a white-bearded old doctor was treating him.
"Uncle Wu, how is the wild dog?" Li Zhang rushed forward and grabbed Lu Wu's arm and asked anxiously.
"The wild dog has been stabbed a few times, and the injury is very serious!" I saw Lu Wu say with a look of self-reproach at this time, if it weren't for the wild dog's desperate protection, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to come back this time.
Li Zhang was even more anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, the doctor was also helping the wild dog's wound to stop the bleeding at this time, but the other wounds were fine, but the two wounds on the chest and abdomen were too deep, and the blood gushing out washed away the medicine powder, and it was impossible to stop the bleeding at all.
Seeing this situation, Li Zhang immediately put down the medicine box and began to treat the wound of the wild dog, only to see that he first cleaned up the wound, and then checked the condition of the wound, and then took out the needle and thread from the medicine box and began to stitch it.
Although the two wounds were very deep, they did not hurt the internal organs, which was also a great luck in misfortune, otherwise if internal bleeding occurred, Li Zhang would also have no surgery, and with the suturing of the wound, the blood finally stopped gushing out, and then Li Zhang took out a yellow powder and sprinkled it on the wound.
The name of the medicine powder is Pu Huang, it is the yellow stick that grows from the pu grass in the spring, it is ground after drying, the effect of hemostasis and blood stasis is very good, Li Zhang was injured when he was a child, and the old people in the family often used this thing to stop the bleeding for him, and later he studied medicine, only to know that this is a very effective hemostatic medicine.
"Little brother is good at medicine!" The old doctor next to him couldn't help but praise when he saw that Li Zhang had stopped the bleeding with the strange method of suturing.
However, Li Zhang's skills also stopped there, there was no medical equipment in later generations, and he didn't know the current injury of the wild dog, so he immediately arched his hand and said: "Please also ask the old gentleman to help him check the pulse and see how his injury is now?" ”
The old doctor didn't shirk it, he checked the pulse of the wild dog at the moment, and then stroked his beard and said: "This injured little brother is extremely healthy, even if he is so seriously injured, the pulse is still strong, but the blood loss is a little too much, if the wound is not ulcerated, it should not be life-threatening!" ”
The so-called ulcer, in fact, is the general term for wound inflammation and infection in traditional Chinese medicine, because ancient medicine was backward, the wound was easily infected by microorganisms, and there was no antibiotic in this era, as long as the wound was inflamed, it could only rely on the injured person to rely on physical fitness.
Although Li Zhang believed in the physical fitness of the wild dog, but just in case, he still asked the old doctor to grab some dandelion decoction water, and then cleaned the wound of the wild dog again, dandelion is known as a natural antibiotic, which has a good inhibitory effect on wound infection.
"How's it going, are the wild dogs okay?" At this time, Lu Wu quickly stepped forward and grabbed Li Zhang's arm and asked.
"It shouldn't be life-threatening, but how could a wild dog be so badly injured?" Li Zhang said with some doubts in the end, wild dogs are born with night eyes, fast movements and great strength, they are like a tiger in the dark environment of the sewer, even a master like Lu Wu is probably not afraid, even if he encounters a dozen ghost beggars besieging him, he can escape calmly, let alone be injured.
"It's all my fault for being too careless, I was ambushed by the other party, and the three brothers died in each other's hands, if it weren't for the wild dogs desperately saving me, I'm afraid my life would have been thrown to the ground!" Lu Wu said again with a face full of self-reproach at this time, when he said this, his body was also shaking, and he was about to fall, but fortunately, Li Zhang's eyes were quick, and he supported him so that he stood up straight.
"Uncle Wu, are you injured?" Only then did Li Zhang realize that Lu Wu was weak, and it seemed that it was very difficult to even stand.
"It's okay, it's just a small injury, if I'm a few years younger, this little injury is nothing at all!" Lu Wu was still stubborn at this time, but Li Zhang hurriedly helped him to the side and sat down, and then checked him personally.
As a result, when Li Zhang untied Lu Wu's clothes, he was startled, only to see that Lu Wu's chest, back and back wounds were vertical and horizontal, although they were not very deep, but the skin and flesh were very terrifying.
"Uncle Wu, why are you so injured?" Li Zhang hurriedly took clean water to help Lu Wu clean it, fortunately, these wounds were not deep, and many wounds were no longer bleeding, otherwise Lu Wu would have collapsed due to excessive blood loss.
"The wild dog said before that those ghost beggars were organized, and I was a little suspicious, but today I encountered the ambush of these ghost beggars, and there is a master among them, and the wild dog and I were injured by each other's hands......"
At that moment, Lu Wu told the story of the incident, it turned out that after they came to the big family that lost the child today, they quickly went into the sewer to look for it, and said that this big family also deserved it, and now the ghost beggars are so fierce, many families are busy sealing the sewer mouth, but the owner of this house is a miser, and he is not willing to spend this money at all, but the ghost beggar broke into the house and snatched his young son away.
After Lu Wu and the others entered the sewer, the wild dog immediately followed the trail, and according to the previous agreement, he would make a mark at the hole of each bend to facilitate Lu Wu and them to chase after him, after all, the wild dog was extremely fast, and ordinary people couldn't keep up with him at all.
But just when Lu Wu and they chased below for nearly an hour, the wild dogs suddenly fled back with blood all over their bodies, and told them to run, but at this time it was too late, dozens of ghost beggars rushed out of the hole next to them, and killed them around them.
If nothing else, Lu Wu could have protected everyone to escape safely, but just as they were about to escape, a person suddenly appeared among the ghost beggars, and as soon as the other party made a move, he knocked out the torch in the hand of the official with a stone, and Lu Wu and the others immediately became blind.
In fact, not all of the ghost beggars have the ability to wild dogs, they generally need torches for underground activities, of course, they are familiar with the path, even if they find the right way in the dark, but if there is no light, they are also blind, and even Lu Wu thinks that they have wild dogs, a person who can see at night, and may take advantage of a little advantage.
But Lu Wu soon found out that he was wrong, the master who knocked out their torches was not affected by the darkness, the two fought dozens of times in the dark, Lu Wu ate the loss that his eyes could not see, and he was soon cut by the other party with countless knives, but the other party seemed to have the intention of playing, and was not in a hurry to kill him, but wanted to play him to death slowly, so these knife wounds were not deep, otherwise Lu Wu would have died a long time ago.
It was also under the blow of this master that Lu Wu was no longer able to protect the others, and finally three of the servants died, and the wild dog had been injured a lot before, but after seeing that Lu Wu was in critical condition, he desperately carried Lu Wu on his body and escaped, and fainted as soon as he came out, and Lu Wu sent the wild dog to the hospital regardless of the injury, which is what happened to the whole thing.
"Uncle Wu, are you sure that the other party is like a wild dog, able to move freely in the dark?" Li Zhang asked with a frown while helping Lu Wu treat his wounds at this time.
"You can't be wrong, you've seen the eyes of the wild dog, glowing green in the dark, just like a wolf, and the same goes for that man's eyes, and it doesn't seem that his target is us, but the wild dog, which is why the wild dog is so badly injured." Lu Wu spoke again at this time, when he said this, he also deliberately turned his head to look at the wild dog in the slump, he didn't want Li Zhang to take in the wild dog at the beginning, but he didn't expect that it was the wild dog who desperately saved his life today.
Li Zhang was also stunned when he heard this, the body of the wild dog is different from ordinary people, after all, the world is so big, even if there are many strange people in later generations, Li Zhang has always thought that the physical condition of the wild dog may be a genetic mutation, coupled with the influence of the living environment, so that he has some ordinary people have no skills, but he did not expect that there are people like wild dogs in this world.
"Is it genetic? If that's the case, it's likely that the person who injured the wild dog is related to him somewhat! Li Zhang suddenly thought of a possibility at this time, and couldn't help whispering to himself at the moment, the life history of the wild dog is also a mystery, he was reluctant to say it before, and Li Zhang never asked, but now it seems that the life history of the wild dog may involve some secrets, and he even let his relatives kill him.
"Boy, the person who hurt me is extremely skilled in martial arts, even if there is an open fight, I may not be able to win against him, and this time he obviously set a trap against wild dogs, and you can't let wild dogs into the sewers in the future, in addition, you have to be careful, I'm worried that they will find your residence!" Lu Wu spoke again at this time, and when he said this, his face also showed a worried look.
Li Zhang also frowned when he heard this, the wild dog and Lu Wu were already his greatest force guarantees, but now that both of them were so seriously injured, and the other party's martial arts were so strong, if he really killed him, what should he do to resist at that time?
