Chapter 6 Sword Wound Medicine
Sun Tang stood up, he was born very tall, although he was almost seventy, he was still one meter nine when he stood up.
Song Kai could only look up.
"Ximei, thread it with a thread and tie it with saltpeter," Sun Tang had a serious look on his face.
It seems that this woman should be called Sun Ximei, although the name is festive, but she has a straight face all day long, and her name does not match the occasion.
Xue Weihai also stood up and looked nervously at the middle-aged man on the bed.
Sun Ximei neatly entangled croton and saltpeter.
Song Kai took two steps forward and looked towards the bed, the middle-aged man on the bed was in a critical condition, and a wound of more than ten centimeters was exposed on his shoulder, the wound was turned outward, obviously purulent, and yellow water was constantly oozing out.
After just one glance, Song Kai understood that Sun Tang used croton and saltpeter to "disinfect" the middle-aged man, and the ancient doctors had recognized the harm of infection, but there was no spirits, no disinfectant water, and no antibiotics, they could only use some special methods to disinfect, such as burning with fire, or using croton, which were very toxic drugs to sterilize.
However, although croton can play a role in sterilization, the toxicity is very great, the middle-aged person is too seriously injured, if you add the poison of croton, it is estimated that there is a lot of ** to die.
"Dr. Sun, what is the situation of Zhou Dalang?" Xue Weihai asked.
Song Kai was taken aback, doctor? Doctors of the Tang Dynasty? Oh, it is estimated that it is an official name, and it seems that this Sun Tang should be a small official in charge of the medical affairs of Suzhou City.
Sun Tang shook his head, "The situation is not good, I hope he can get through, hey." ”
When Xue Weihai heard this, his lips trembled twice.
Over there, Sun Ximei had already wrapped croton and saltpeter.
Song Kai hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Wait, Doctor Sun, I'm looking for you today......"
"Don't you see I'm treating a patient!" Sun Tang scolded sharply, and he didn't care about Xue Weihai's face next to him.
Xue Weihai just looked at the middle-aged man on the bed and didn't speak.
Song Kai took another step forward, "Doctor Sun, I mean, you can't save this patient with this method. ”
"Get out of here!"
Sun Tang stood up straight and glared at Song Kai. First, a young man despised medical skills and felt angry in his heart, and secondly, it was very unlucky to say these words in front of a sick person. Tang Dynasty doctors believed in these folk rumors, and even Sun Tang was not exempt from vulgarity.
Song Kai was taken aback, this old man is quite majestic, the key is that he is too tall, people who grow too tall have a big aura, and his body is only one meter seven when he is full, and it is really difficult to look at his neck.
Sun Ximei came over and pushed Song Kai.
Song Kai shook his hand and ignored the woman, he stared at Sun Tang, and he was also angry, and said word by word: "Doctor Sun, do you think you are sure that you can save this person." ”
"Old man...... Hmph, the old man has three ...... Twenty percent sure, though, who are you? Saying that, Sun Tang looked at Xue Weihai, and he also thought that Song Kai was here to find Xue Weihai.
Xue Weihai was still staring at the person on the bed, with some tears in his eyes.
Song Kai sneered, "Two percent? I'm afraid it's not even a good one, Doctor Sun, do you expect the person in bed to be healthy and able to heal himself? Oh, there was still a possibility, but if you used this medicine, there might not be a single one. ”
Sun Tang's fingers trembled.
Sun Ximei rushed to the door and was about to call his men and drive Song Kai out.
Song Kai arched his hand, neither humble nor arrogant: "Doctor Sun, I came this time to sell you an old family heirloom recipe, anyway, this prescription is in my hands, it is useless, it just so happens that Song's family heirloom recipe is to treat sword injuries." ”
"Huh?" Sun Tang's body trembled.
Xue Weihai, who was beside the bed, also turned his head to look at Song Kai.
"However, looking at Mr. Sun's demeanor, he doesn't want my ancestral prescription," Song Kai sighed and shook his head, turning his head to leave.
In fact, Song Kai didn't plan to sell any sword wound medicine, he originally came to sell Zisheng Pills, which was to treat some weak bodies, but now that he encountered such a knife wound patient, he temporarily changed his mind.
"Don't go," Sun Tang grabbed Song Kai's arm.
"What does Mr. Sun mean by this?" Song Kai turned around and took a step back.
"This ...... Is the prescription in your hand really for the treatment of knife wounds? Sun Tang took a breath and asked cautiously, it's not that he doesn't believe it, it's really in this era, there are too few prescriptions for treating external injuries, and the first person in surgery is Hua Tuo in the Three Kingdoms, but Hua Tuo's medical books have not been handed down, so the surgical medicine of the Tang Dynasty is very backward.
"If you don't believe it, just do it," Song Kai put his hands behind his back.
"Can you, hehe, can you show the old man this recipe first," Sun Tang squeezed out a little smile, and his voice softened.
Over there, Sun Ximei walked over, looked at Song Kai, and the corners of her mouth pursed, "Grandpa, this person is not a doctor at all, how can there be an ancestral prescription at home, or a prescription for treating knife wounds?" ”
Sun Tang waved his hand, glared at Sun Ximei, and motioned her to shut up, now that Zhou Duwei was in critical condition on the bed, Sun Tang didn't want to let go of any hope.
Song Kai ignored Sun Ximei's questioning and said, "Naturally, you can take a look." This recipe is not too complicated, but the person on the bed is too seriously injured, and he has a secondary infection, it just so happens that I have an internal prescription and an external prescription here, packaged and sold, it is better to use this person for a test, you have to give me more copper coins to cure him, if it is not cured, well, then forget it, it should be given to your old man for nothing,"
Sun Tang looked puzzled, Xue Weihai looked at Song Kai in disbelief, Song Kai suddenly showed a lot of generosity, which made the two old men a little suspicious.
"Song Langjun, you ...... Aren't you...... Isn't it a fraud? Xue Weihai asked seriously.
"Uncle, you have a life-saving grace for me, how could I deceive you, it's a real sword wound medicine, I'll write it down, you can use it, don't use it," Song Kai said.
Sun Tang waved his hand, put down the croton, and said, "Okay, you write." ”
Song Kai lifted the pen and suddenly smiled bitterly, his mother's can't write Tang Dynasty characters.
"That, Ximei, you come here, I said you write," Song Kai commanded with a grin.
Sun Ximei glared at Song Kai, "You can't write it yourself!" ”
"Yes, I don't know much literacy, hurry up and write," Song Kai was polite, who let this woman look down on people.
"I'm not your slave!"
"Hime! Come here, write," Sun Tang spoke.
Sun Ximei bit her silver teeth, snorted, and then picked up the brush and looked at Song Kai.
"External formula, musk one penny, water fly cinnabar, three coins, **, one money five cents, myrrh, one money five cents, blood exhaustion, three coins, salvia, three coins, grinding and mixing, to spirits...... Well, it's to distill the liquor again and apply it to the wound. Song Kai frowned, this recipe is a surgical medicine issued in the Qing Dynasty, the first way to treat sword injuries, but it seems that some medicines are not commonly used now.
Sun Ximei frowned, and after writing, she glanced at her grandfather.
Sun Tang was still a little skeptical at first, but when he heard this recipe, he thought about it and asked: "These other drugs are easy to say, but ** and spirits, but I don't know why the medicine?" ”
Song Kai waved his hand, "I don't know the specifics, but I can help you find it later, maybe it's not called **, anyway, in short, there must be something in the medicine cabinet, as for the spirits, well, I'll help get some later, this thing is a good medicine to deal with sword wounds, it can be sterilized...... Well, anyway, it can prevent suppuration and decay. Well, there is also a prescription for internal administration, so I grabbed it and boiled it down first. ”
Saying that, Song Kai gave another recipe for activating the spirit pill, adding astragalus membranaceus and ginseng to support sores and muscles, as well as salvia to replenish qi and blood.
After writing the recipe and finding **, Song Kai instructed Sun Ximei to get some wine with the highest degree, and then found a cauldron and distilled it.
Distilled liquor is to use the difference in boiling point between alcohol and water to separate alcohol and water, but without a cooling pipe, it is impossible to get a high degree of distilled spirit, but forty degrees is still possible, let's use it first, anyway, no one can die.
Sun Ximei was called by Song Kai to drink, moving the pot to lift the wine, she pinched her waist and complained: "You are a big man, you are embarrassed to stand there and move your mouth and not your hands." ”
"You me! Hurry up, put this bamboo pole on the pot, dig a hole in the lid of the pot, and then use a wooden barrel here, yes, you are so stupid! Song Kai took the opportunity to ridicule Sun Ximei.
Sun Ximei glared at Song Kai hatefully, and swore in her heart that she would teach this guy a hard lesson if she found an opportunity.
