Chapter Thirty-Seven: Time and Destiny
I was in a hurry, so I quickly helped him to lie flat, took the dagger from the man in black and rubbed it on his clothes, grabbed Wang Shaoting's hands, and quickly stabbed a small hole in his ten fingertips, and then squeezed it hard, blood flowed out of his fingertips, and the blood was dark red.
Then tilted his head back slightly, and gently stabbed the Baihui point in the middle of the top of his head with a dagger, which also squeezed out the blood, and then pressed his human center with the tip of his thumb.
After about half a minute or so, I heard a "heh" sound in his throat, and began to let out a soft moan, and when I touched my nose, I was angry!
This trick of the "Ten Xuan Bloodletting" and "Baihui Bloodletting" fainting first aid method passed down by the exterminator Tai personally seem to be quite effective! The so-called ten fingers, that is, the tips of ten fingers, plus toes are also OK, as the saying goes, ten fingers are connected to the heart, and bleeding from the tips of the ten fingers can stimulate the heart and let the comatose wake up.
Seeing that his life was not in danger for the time being, I reached out and tore off a few strips of cloth from the man in black, first tied my arm tightly from above the wound, and then knotted a simple long rope, put Wang Shaoting on his back face up, and made a simple fixation with the rope, and touched it down the mountain with a deep foot and a shallow foot.
On the way down the mountain, I faintly heard the neighing of horses and the shouts of people from the mountain stream, and I believe that the big stone must have hit those black-clothed people a lot, so that none of the enemies pursuing on the mountain here saw it again, and they all went back to reinforce it.
I climbed down the hill and ran to the side of the road, but fortunately, the horses of several of us were still tied to the trees by the roadside. I first helped Wang Shaoting on the horse, climbed up myself, sat back to back, tied it with a rope, and galloped away in the direction of Xiping Town!
Before leaving, it was as if I heard the sound of drums coming from Weilong Mountain again, different from the long rhythm when I came that day, rapid and powerful, more like a war drum to inspire soldiers! I don't know what happened to the battle situation inside, but because the mountain stream that was the only way to pass has been blocked by boulders, the enemy's reinforcements outside will definitely not be able to enter for a while, which will buy precious time for the people inside to transfer and retreat! Wang Shaoting has done everything he can as the second master, but at the cost of his own life!
When I thought of this, my heart became anxious again, and I kept shouting: "Wang Shaoting! Wake me up! You're a ringing horse, you're the second leader of Weilong Mountain, what do you look like if you're so fragile! Wang Shaoting, aren't you usually very spirited? How did you get soft now? Get up and quarrel with me, get up! ……”
The horses kept galloping all the way, and by the time we reached the outside of Xiping Town, the horses and I were already drenched in sweat and panting. I saw that the front was already at the door of Rui Wei's house, so I quickly helped Wang Shaoting off the horse, and struggled to the door without saying a word.
After a few beats, I heard footsteps in the courtyard, and a crisp voice asked, "Who?" ”
"It's me! Pottery...... Tao Yong! Open the door! I shouted.
The courtyard door opened with a "squeak", and while dragging Wang Shaoting inside, I eagerly said to Rui Wei: "He is seriously injured, go to the pharmacy in the town, which is the opposite of our tea, find the shopkeeper Yan, and say that the Tao family needs him to help save people!" Fast! Ride my horse! ”
Rui Wei was really taken aback when he saw the miserable appearance of the two of us, but when he saw my serious expression, he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly got on his horse, and said to me before leaving: "Jin Chuangyao is in the small box in the corner of my house", and then he galloped away to the town.
I helped Wang Shaoting to the bed in the room and lay down, went to the corner of the wall, and found a delicate small box, opened it and saw that all the external ones were placed on the top, there were bottles, pills and some small yellow paper packets. The so-called "Jinchuang Medicine" is just a general term, which is a class of medicine that specializes in treating bruises, sword wounds or other bruises. Among them, the medicine for sword wounds is generally powder, so I think the yellow medicine pack should be the correct solution. When I opened it and smelled it, a smell mixed with several traditional Chinese medicines such as Angelica Angelica dahurica and Panax notoginseng to stop bleeding and removing blood stasis came to my face, and I was even more convinced.
I opened the pouch and spilled some on the wound on my arm, a stinging pain that made my teeth grin. Seeing that the medicine had been mixed with blood and covered the wound, I untied the strip of cloth above the wound and bandaged it briefly.
The reason why he didn't give the medicine to Wang Shaoting in the first place was because what he needed most now was not Jinchuang Medicine. When I went back to the bed to see him, I saw that there was not much blood coming from the wound, but probably because the arrow was so close to the heart, he began to have a fever, his heart was beating very fast, and his forehead was full of sweat. The most urgent thing to do now is to take the arrow out first.
But to be honest, although I have learned the basics of surgery, I have only been able to hand medical equipment to the surgeon, and I have never directly attacked the patient. If he had an injury in his leg or something, I might have dared to give it a try, but now it's in the chest, and the slightest mistake will kill him, and the pressure is too great!
And the reason why Rui Wei went to find Daddy Yan was just a temporary idea, I always knew that medicine was not separated in ancient times, so he must also be a good doctor for Daddy Yan's collection of medicines. But after all, Wang Shaoting's identity is a bit special, and I don't want to rush to the town with him rashly, so Rui Wei has undoubtedly become a better choice here.
Even so, I was still prepared for the worst, if he didn't come, I would never have watched my brother die!
I continued to call him over and over again, scolding him, but his eyes were closed and he didn't react at all.
I don't know how long I waited in the middle of the year, but as soon as there was a knock on the courtyard door outside, someone came in. I stood up and rushed to the door to see, the figure that came first was Rui Wei, she was followed by a person in green clothes, it was completely dark, I couldn't see the person's face clearly, and when they walked to the front of the house, the man shouted angrily: "Stinky boy!" "I just found out that he was Daddy Yan! I'm overjoyed!
Entering the house, Father Yan first went to the bed to take a look at Wang Shaoting, and then grabbed his wrist to check his pulse.
Rui Wei also walked over, and when he saw Wang Shaoting's face, he suddenly said "Huh" softly.
"What's wrong?" I asked her in a whisper.
"It's fine." She pursed her lips in reply. But looking at the flickering look in his eyes, it was obvious that he had thought of something.
At this time, Father Yan was silent for a long time and finally said, "Now you need to take out this arrow immediately!" ”
"Good!" I rolled up my sleeves and was about to come up and help.
Rui Wei turned in front of me and said, "You, boil water outside!" ”
"Ah, why?" I shouted.
"Are you still wounded, and you still want to save others?" She pursed her lips and said with a look of contempt.
I just wanted to argue, but Daddy Yan said on the side: "Don't make any noise! It's urgent, the stinky boy goes outside to boil water first, and the girl is here to help me! ”
As soon as I heard that he had arranged it like this, I had no choice but to retreat, and as I walked, I was still thinking, forget it, they are so illiterate because they don't know what I came from......
I went to the house where I was sleeping and fetched some grass, then went to the stove at the door, scooped water from the water tank and poured it into the cauldron. When I just squatted down and was about to look for matches on the stove, I thought: Ah, there are no matches in this era!
I wanted to go in and ask Rui Wei, but now that they are all concentrating on saving Wang Shaoting, why am I embarrassed to rush in and ask such an idiotic question, "What kind of fire do you want?"
Immediately looked around the stove a little, and found two or three stones near the wall, and a small piece of iron in the shape of an apricot kernel on the side. I've never seen this kind of iron piece, but I played with this stone when I was a child, it's called flint, and when it hits, it will have sparks. Looking at this meaning, it should be to use these two things for fire.
I first found some of the finer and drier ones from the grass, kneaded them with my hands, then took the flint in my left hand and the iron sheet in my right hand, and began to strike. Sure enough, I guessed correctly, and after a few hits, obvious sparks began to burst out, and I brought them close to the hayball, and I could see that the sparks had fallen on the grass ball, and some scorching marks began to appear.
As soon as I saw that there was a play, I didn't care about the faint pain in my arm, so I knelt on the ground and started a fire, and when I saw a spark coming out, I grabbed the grass ball with my hand, trying to keep the spark, and it took a lot of effort to finally lead the fire!
I hurriedly put the lit grass ball in the middle of the firewood set up in the stove, blew it a little more, and was relieved to see it start to burn. I wiped my sweat with my sleeve and sighed in my heart: This ancient life is really inconvenient! But I'm very content, and it hasn't allowed me to drill wood for fire!
However, the anxiety in my heart has been greatly reduced by such a busy work, otherwise I would have been so anxious that I would have fidgeted like an ant on a hot pot when I saw my brother's life and death at stake.
It was late at night, squatting beside the warm stove, and suddenly there was a deep sense of incredibleness, the four people inside and outside the house, who originally didn't know each other and had nothing to do with each other, were now so closely linked because of an inexplicable family secret, fate is really a wonderful thing.
After a while, I suddenly heard a loud cry of "wow" in the house, which frightened me and jumped in and rushed into the house. But I saw that Father Yan had already thrown the arrow he pulled out next to him, and was applying an ointment to Wang Shaoting's wound, while Rui Wei was standing next to him holding a stack of white cloth. Looking at Wang Shaoting again, silver needles have been placed on many acupoints around his body, although his face is still a little pale, but his breathing has begun to be stable, his eyes have been slightly opened, and his consciousness seems to be awake. The shout just now was the pain he shouted when he pulled out the arrow just now.
I was overjoyed and asked, "Is he okay?" ”
Father Yan said with a solemn face: "I can't be sure yet, after all, he has broken his heart, and whether he can recover depends on the later stage of recuperation." ”
"No problem, you've got such a serious injury, and it's not even easier to recuperate!" I immediately grinned and put my daddy's top hat on.
"You stinky boy, you think I'm not going to stand by and watch like that?" He glared back at me.
I didn't want him, I crooked my neck and shouted at Wang Shaoting: "Wang Shaoting, do you know? You'll be fine with Daddy! You're alive! ”
Hearing me call me that, Father Yan was suddenly stunned and said in surprise: "Wang Shaoting? His name is Wang Shaoting? ”
"yes!" I replied curiously.
Father Yan's face suddenly became gloomy, and the operation in his hand also stopped, and he muttered in his mouth: "This is really the time, and the fate." ”
