XIX. The Secret of Blood Coagulation
"Is there something strange about this dagger that I need to know in advance?"
It is not surprising that Wende would have such doubts, and anyone who sees a dagger stuck in his body for more than ten hours will be suspicious.
Although the length of the blade of this dagger is not visible for the time being, it can be inferred from the angle of entering the flesh that the probability of injuring the liver and kidneys is not large.
The most likely is an intestinal injury, followed by death due to excessive blood loss due to internal bleeding that is difficult to control.
This is what the stab and slash refer to.
Therefore, even if the medical skills of this world are not as good as modern medicine, as a chivalrous person who licks blood with a knife, he should have his own uniqueness in dealing with external injuries.
It should be clear that in the face of such a situation, the top priority is to stop the blood loss, and there is no reason to let the murder weapon stay in the body.
Unless...... The removal of this dagger would cause something worse.
But that is a bit beyond Wende's common sense, whether it is a second trauma or bleeding, theoretically it is not more harmful than the dagger remaining in the body.
His inquiry made Ma Qianliang's eyes light up, and he walked up to Wen De and whispered: "That's right, this dagger doesn't know what kind of poison it is, and the viciousness is abnormal, and it can make the person in it see blood and seal his throat." ”
"See blood seal your throat?" Wen De subconsciously repeated, his eyes fell on the dagger in Chu Yunhe's abdomen that was straight to the handle, and he was a little speechless: Is there any mistake, knowing that you have seen blood seal your throat, and you have always left it there?
As if seeing Wende's question, Ma Qianliang smiled bitterly and said again: "This was told to us by Brother Chu, when we rescued him, he still had a trace of consciousness, and at the last moment told us that this thing must not be pulled out rashly, otherwise he will definitely die; And if he kept the dagger in his body, he might still have a chance to live. ”
Wen Deqi said: "Sounds like he knows something about this dagger?" ”
"It seems so." Ma Qianliang replied: "We were skeptical of these words at first, and we didn't particularly care about them. As a result, when he was treating Brother Chu, there was some stubble. ”
"At that time, a famous doctor in the county town was invited, and when he heard us relay Brother Chu's words, he shook his head, saying that he had never heard of such a poison, and if he didn't understand the toxicity, it would be difficult to prescribe the right medicine, so he had to pull out the dagger and identify it carefully."
"I don't want this dagger to just pull out more than an inch, Brother Chu's injury has changed, the blood flowing from his wound will condense when he sees the light, and soon it will cause difficulty breathing, and his pulse will be much weaker."
The doctor panicked, and no further injections or injections had any effect. Later, Brother Zhang Shi saw the opportunity faster, and let Brother Chu take it with the heart protection pill of the master, and sealed the acupoints around the wound to slow down the blood circulation, which barely saved Brother Chu's life. ”
"But that's what happened." Ma Qianliang pointed to the two people on the couch, "We must protect Brother Chu's heart with internal strength, and we will not stop at all times, otherwise it will soon deteriorate, breathing will become difficult, and the pulse will also weaken......"
Winder frowned, "So what kind of poison hasn't been found out?" ”
"Yes. At that time, seeing that the situation was not good, we had to reinsert the dagger back......" Ma Qianliang replied with a dejected face.
Wende asked, "Then you came to me because you heard rumors that I have some elixir in my hands." Expect it to be useful? ”
Ma Qianliang replied: "Yes......"
Winder shook his head, "Regardless of what the doctor did, he was right: it's hard to get the right medicine when you don't know what poison it is. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the handle of the dagger inserted in Chu Yunhe's abdomen, and everyone in the room was taken aback, and shouted, "Don't!" ”
Wende waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if I'm not sure, I won't act rashly." ”
Looking back, the rhythm of breathing has changed slightly, and the fireworks ability has quietly unfolded!
Scan Mode!
Hearing that the dagger was strange, Winder had this plan.
But when it is really implemented, I can't help but be a little surprised.
Because this dagger is indeed wonderful, and it is beyond Winder's expectations!
What Wende held in his hand was nothing more than a dagger made from ancient metallurgical standards, but the time and source power taken to scan it were much more than the most laborious diesel generator to scan in Wende's foreign land!
As soon as Wende held the hilt of the sword, it was thirty-seven minutes and twenty-four seconds, and the source power pool was also forcibly half empty.
When he came back to his senses after the scan, Winder, who had been suffering from poor blood flow due to maintaining one position for a long time, suddenly stumbled and was immediately helped again.
Ma Qianliang asked with concern, "Brother Wen, what's the matter?" ”
Wende held the dagger motionless for a long time, which naturally attracted the sideways glances of the others in the room. Now the eyes are on him, including Ma Qianshun, Lu Fang, Wang Zhong and others who were driven later.
They waited for Winder's answer.
Winder didn't disappoint them, "I've got some eyebrows, but I still need to think about it." Then he asked Ma Qianliang and said, "I want to think about it in a quiet room." ”
At the door, Wang Zhong immediately sneered, "Mo isn't it-" But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was pulled aside by the person next to him, and there was no more follow-up.
Wende ignored him either, and just went to the next room under the leadership of Ma Qianliang. After the maid had brought the refreshments, Winder sent them all out, sat down in a chair alone in the room, and began to meditatively examine the results of the scan.
Then I was taken aback!
At first, he thought it was a dagger poisoned or something, but now he realized that it wasn't at all.
So much so that I was still a little distressed about the cost of source power before.
- If it weren't for the fact that the source power in this world is much richer than when he was in a foreign land, although Wende has done a lot of things with his source power in the past few days, and reliably meditates twice a night, he can still maintain the source power pool at more than ninety percent.
Otherwise, this "loss of bleeding" scan will definitely affect this "trip".
But at this time, I feel that although the cost of this scan is unprecedented, it is definitely worth it.
Even if Winder finds nothing after this trip, this dagger is worth the ticket price just by relying on this scan!
- This dagger has a bone handle, the exact material of which is unknown; The blade of the sword is a high-carbon steel with a very subtle carbon content, and mixed with a little nickel element, which may not be anything in modern times, but in ancient times when the metallurgical level was not so high, it can definitely be regarded as "100 forged steel", and the weapons made from this can also be classified as "famous soldiers' swords".
Of course, none of this is anything to Wende.
What really surprised Wende was the coating on the surface of the dagger's blade.
The composition of the materials it uses is very subtle, and there is no corresponding information in Wende's database, not to mention, there are faint traces of the existence of active power in it!
This is really, very rarely, with the "ultra-inertness" of the source force, it is almost impossible to react with other substances unless it is under the action of an unimaginable external force.
- The items with "missing" that Wende collected when he was in a foreign land are not considered to be reactions, but their real situation is actually because of longing, which gives the source force a coordinate, and it is relatively rich in a specific location.
There are two completely different situations from the coating of this dagger.
This coating is like a new substance, or alloy, produced by the combination and interaction of the source force and the iron element.
It's unclear what exactly it will do, but one thing is certain:
This layer of coating on the dagger, as well as the seemingly purposeful application process, make this dagger have a certain "gravitational pull" on the source force of the outside world in some specific situations.
Although the person who made the dagger may not be as clear as Wende, who can perceive and manipulate the source force, he must also know what kind of results this gravitational phenomenon will cause the dagger.
Although Wende was the only one in the house, he still carefully confirmed that no one was peeping at the doors and windows, and then spent a lot of source power to create a dagger with creation.
Experiments followed, and the results were very fast.
The dagger itself was indeed free of toxins, and the slashes were the same as those of a normal sword.
However, when the "gravitational force" of the dagger is activated by a unique means, the source force it attracts is not much, but it will produce wonderful changes.
The blood that had been in direct contact with the dagger coagulated for a very short period of time - the mechanism is unknown, Winder guessed that it was similar to some kind of blood clotting agent or related to platelets - this phenomenon persists once it occurs, and the clotted blood has a subtle gravitational pull on the external source, thus allowing the clotting to extend from the outside to the body.
It can be said that it is very vicious, and it is almost impossible to fight against this phenomenon without perceiving and manipulating the source force.
However, this phenomenon is not without flaws, according to the Wende test, the coagulation phenomenon has a very subtle, aerobic nature.
Clotting persists only when the wound or clotted blood clot is completely exposed to the air.
Otherwise, clotting stops or slows down.
This may be good news, but it's only useful for minor injuries. Under the premise that Chu Yunhe was stabbed in the abdomen and had a high probability of injuring his internal organs, he would not be able to save people by just avoiding contact with the air.
This dagger has the exaggerated effect of "death when you see a wound".
Unless, like Wende, someone can perceive and manipulate the source force to fundamentally eliminate this phenomenon.
Looking at the wound on his forearm with an expressionless face, the blood clotted into a clump, and the entire left arm was gradually losing sensation. Wende adjusted the rhythm of his breathing, and in a shallow meditation way, he easily summed up the source force near his arm into the source power pool.
The blood clot from the wound then falls off, and the blood that comes out again is no longer abnormal, and flows normally until it soon crusts over.
Winder's face remained unchanged, not surprising at the situation.
When it comes to the use and control of the source force, the traveler who has awakened the ability of fireworks is also one of the best existences in the multi-dimensional superdimensional endless world.
Even if he was just an awakened traveler, the use of source power was not comparable to the subtle means of this dagger.
