Chapter VI: Injuries
Mu Lan listened to the sound of approaching footsteps and began to be on guard again.
She didn't want to be captured by those villagers again!
The scalpel in his hand was tightly clenched, ready to fight for his life at any time.
Just when Mu Lan was on guard, a thin and tall figure walked into the cave, and it was the Baizhu that went out to find something to eat, but made her wait for almost a day.
Baizhu held a pile of firewood in one hand and a rabbit and a pheasant in the other, both of which had been peeled and washed.
Mu Lan relaxed when she saw that it was him, leaning against the stone wall, this startled, no matter how strong her heart was, she couldn't stand it.
The young man saw Mu Lan like this, and he knew what was going on, and there was a trace of guilt in his eyes that looked at her.
But he didn't say anything, went straight to the woody pyre that had long been extinguished, and began to burn the fire.
Mu Lan didn't speak, but looked at the young man generously.
She noticed that the boy's clothes were a little dirty, there were holes in several places, and there were blood stains on his body, and a faint smell of blood came from his direction.
The attentive Mu Lan found that the young man's belt was missing, replaced by a thin wooden vine, combined with the smell of blood on his body, Mu Lan knew that the young man was injured.
"You lured the tiger before?!" Mu Lan finally spoke.
The young man's busy figure paused, and only after a while did he say 'um', which was in response to Mu Lan's question.
She said, how could the king of the mountain leave suddenly, it turned out that this young man led him away.
Baizhu's movements were very fast, and he put the pheasant on a small iron pot to stew in three or two clicks, and began to roast the rabbit.
Mu Lan looked at his back, hesitated and hesitated again before speaking again, "Do you believe me?" β
The young man looked up at her and looked at her for more than a minute before he nodded and replied with another 'um'.
Mu Lan calmly looked at him, and she finally saw trust in the young man's clear eyes, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then come here, I'll help you with your wounds!"
A flash of surprise flashed in the young man's eyes, and he quickly regained clarity, "Wait a minute! β
As he spoke, he turned around again, added some firewood to the fire, and then came to Mu Lan's side.
Mu Lan didn't expect him to be so crisp, and he was relieved after a moment's surprise.
The boy sat down with his back to Mu Lan and began to untie his clothes. As the clothes were taken off, Mu Lan saw his belt, which turned out to be used by him to tie the wound.
Blood is still oozing from the belt, which shows that the injury is serious.
The young man didn't need to use Mu Lan's hands, and untied the belt on his body, revealing a hideous almost bony wound on his back.
Mu Lan was also in his movements, urgently calling the system to start the body scanning program.
"Ding-Primary Body Scan Detection Assist Function On......"
"Enter Scan ......"
"Severe ...... of trauma detected in the patient"
"Urgent treatment is recommended, treatment options: wound clearance, suture surgery."
When Mu Lan heard the mechanical sound that she had been familiar with in the past two days, she was no longer disgusted, but felt much more kind.
"Spicy chicken system, I need a sterile surgical kit, tetanus antitoxin, antibiotics plus saline......"
Mu Lan mentally listed the items she needed for the operation, and as for the sterile operating room, she didn't count on it.
A self-help medical model, it cost ten medical achievement points, and it hasn't been paid off yet, so she doesn't dare to overdraft the achievement points anymore.
Of course, she will also do a good job of aseptic operation.
In fact, the conditions in the cave are limited, so she can only use her knowledge of field first aid to achieve aseptic operation as much as possible.
The spicy chicken system was generous this time, and just after Mu Lan reported the surgical supplies, a medical first aid kit appeared next to her.
Mu Lan opened it and took a closer look, and found that everything she asked for was complete, so she was relieved.
After disinfecting her hands with saline, she put on surgical gloves and cleaned the wound of Atractylodes with saline.
After cleaning, Mu Lan gave the boy a local anesthetic, and the conditions were limited, so she could only settle for it.
Disassemble the debridement kit, pick up the scalpel and nickel, and begin the debridement.
This is an extremely deep cut, it seems that it should be the tiger's claw, and it took a lot of effort for Mu Lan to complete the debridement of the wound.
Picking up the sutures and starting to stitch them, Mu Lan fell into concentration.
The young man turned his back to Mu Lan, closed his eyes and felt Mu Lan's movements on him, with doubts and surprises in his heart.
She disappeared last night and reappeared, did she heal herself in the same way?
It's amazing!
He'd never seen anything like it! This is supposed to be medical skills, right? Sew up the wound as if you were sewing clothes.
He could feel the needle thread through the flesh, but it didn't hurt at all.
The girl in the back moves very gently and skillfully, as if she has done a lot of these things.
How did she develop this skill? She didn't have that kind of medicine before!
The boy had doubts and curiosity in his heart, and there was more curiosity, but he didn't ask anything, because he knew what he could ask and what he couldn't ask.
The young man pursed his beautiful thin lips, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his mood suddenly became happy.
It's so good, it seems that only he has discovered her ability!
It took Mu Lan more than an hour to finish treating the boy's wounds. Finally, when the sutures were cut, she felt like she was sweating.
"Jingleβ" The crisp sound of the surgical scissors placed on the tray made both of them shudder.
"It's over, I'm so carried away!" Mu Lan exclaimed in her heart, and then silently recited, "Don't turn around, don't turn around!" β
Mu Lan stared at the young man's thin back, muttering words in his mouth, and he didn't know that he had accidentally said what was in his heart.
The corners of the boy's mouth twitched as he turned his back to her, and he didn't even notice the upward arc.
"Are you alright?"
The young man's voice sounded in the cave, breaking the awkward atmosphere between the two.
"Uh, yet, not yet...... But it's almost there, you wait a minute, I'll wrap it up for you! β
Mu Lan's voice unconsciously flattered.
She was really afraid that the boy would turn around and find her surgical equipment.
Fortunately, the young man never turned around, and he didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing the matter of her knife on him, let alone any curiosity.
Mu Lan exhaled, quickly took the gauze and bandages, and began to bandage the teenager.
Forget it, no matter what, just cover her ears and steal the bell, anyway, this guy doesn't ask her and pretends that the other party hasn't found anything!
Otherwise, she really didn't know how to explain it.
The young man looked down at the gauze wrapped around the girl's body, and the corners of his mouth began to twitch again, should he say that this girl has a big heart or a big heart!
This white cloth seems to have never been seen before, but it is not something they can have here!
"That's it!" Mu Lan looked at the thin back of the young man, took a deep breath, and was ready to be questioned by him.
The boy casually put on his already tattered clothes, and didn't seem to have the intention of asking.
Mu Lan waited for a long time and didn't see him speak, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
He buried his head in putting all the surgical supplies into the first-aid kit given by the system, and even the used gauze was carefully put away, although the boy didn't ask, but it was better not to let him see these things.
The two of them also tacitly agreed!
Mu Lan was glad that the young man was interested, otherwise she would really not be able to explain anything.
However, Mu Lan also decided that if he was injured again in the future, he would try not to save him, even if he returned the favor of saving her this time.
"Ding - successfully completed a traumatic debridement and suturing operation, and treated patients to gain 1 medical achievement point, and the current medical achievement point is -9!"
A familiar mechanical sound sounded in Mu Lan's mind, which made her heart happy and confirmed her previous guess.
Sure enough, the medical achievement points are related to her surgery to save people, although her current achievement points are still negative, but I believe that as long as she treats more patients in the future, she will always pay off her debts.
She didn't want to be in debt all the time, and the feeling of being in debt was not good.
Mu Lan's temperament can be regarded as easy to meet, and after coming to this different time and space for two days, she can be regarded as adapting. Although she didn't know if she would have a chance to return to her own world, she decided to live a good day here.
Mu Lan was happy in his heart, and his movements in his hands were not slow, and after packing up his things, he called the system in his heart to try to see if the first aid kit could be taken back.
The system did not disappoint her, looking at the first aid kit that disappeared in place, Mu Lan's heart became happier.
"System, turn on the body scanner!" Mu Lan meditated silently in the bottom of her heart.
She is now beginning to believe in this super medical system, especially the body scanning program, which is more effective than the various testing equipment in the hospital, and is not only convenient but also detailed.
"Ding-Turn on the primary body scan detection assistance function ......"
"Enter Scan ......"
"The patient's back trauma was detected to be severe, and debridement sutures were performed and the operation was successful. There are also eight small wounds on other parts of the body, which are recommended for debridement ......"
This is followed by the basic data of the juvenile atractylodes, including heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen saturation, etc.
Mu Lan was dumbfounded, uh, it seems that she forgot to deal with other injuries, and she was happy for a while when she had just successfully obtained medical achievement points.
"Well, you have other injuries on your body, do you want me to deal with them?" Mu Lan asked hesitantly.
Baizhu had already sat back in front of the fire, and when he heard Mu Lan's question, he turned to look at her and said lightly, "No need!" β
Mu Lan was a little displeased by his refusal tone, frowned, and was about to say something, but heard the young man's voice again.
"It's all skin trauma, it will be fine in a few days!"
Well, since he didn't care about it, Mu Lan decided to leave it alone, after all, the operation on him just now was all with his back to him, and now it was a bit shocking to let her take out the first aid kit in front of her.
It's just that you still need to give him another tetanus shot to prevent the wound from getting infected, and this can be done when he falls asleep.
So, the two men began to look at each other in the cave, and the boy was watching the fire, and the smell of stewed pheasant wafted from the small pot, and the smell of burnt rabbits.
Just now, neither of them bothered to roast the rabbit, but now it's good, there is one less food! It's not enough for two to eat!
