Chapter 115: Fame
No matter what the era, the lower classes of peasants were always poor. The same is true of those hunters, who go into the mountains for a day. You need to be careful of the attacks of jackals, tigers and leopards. It is important to pay attention to the dangerous areas such as mountain cliffs.
Sometimes when you can't meet prey for a day, you can only get some herbs to subsidize your family. Naturally, life is impossible to be rich. Something like a broken leg can almost be said to be a devastating blow to a hunter.
Orion dragged his bleeding leg, and with the help of his companions, he walked to Lu Xiao's medical hall. The main thing is that he knows that he has a broken leg, and he will definitely not be able to work in the future. If you can't sell the medicinal materials in your hand for some rice, the family is afraid that they won't be able to get over this hurdle.
"Doctor, can I still save this leg?" Although Orion is not optimistic about Lu Xiao's medical skills. But he really couldn't go to other hospitals.
"It's a bit serious. You forcibly walked these twenty miles more. It made this leg injury a lot worse. But fortunately, the fracture is not very serious. On the contrary, this wound is bleeding a little. ”
Lu Xiao said as he medicated his wound, then took out the needle and thread and stitched the wound directly. In this world, the technique of suturing wounds has actually appeared. After all, it is a martial arts world, and it is still different from the general world.
However, these hunters have naturally never seen this kind of operation. I only feel that Lu Xiao sews flesh and blood as cloth, which makes people both fear and awe.
This kind of trauma is not a troublesome injury for Lu Xiao. When he treated those charlatans back then. It's much more serious than that. Among those guys, there are a lot of ruthless people.
Lu Xiao had seen one, and his stomach was cut open. A ruthless man whose intestines are flowing out. used a rope to tie his intestines to his belly, and ran to Lu Xiao, and finally survived.
After tying Orion's injured leg with two planks. Lu Xiao wiped the blood on his hands and said to him.
"Nothing is a big deal. When you go back, take plenty of rest. It will be cured in about a month. Be careful not to get wet. ”
"Healed?" The term stunned Orion for a moment.
"Doctor, can I be cured?"
"Why can't it be cured?" Lu Xiao asked strangely.
"No, but my leg is broken!"
"I know it's broken, it's not very bad, I've already connected your bones and drugged you. Go back and rest more and you will be healed soon, and it will not affect your walking. ”
If you break your leg, you will become lame and crippled. This is the perception of most people in this era. But in Lu Xiao's opinion, this level of bone crack is actually not a big problem. Orion is still young and in good health. If you cultivate well, you will basically not leave any root causes in the future.
After Lu Xiao finished speaking, he handed a few packets of prepared medicinal powder to Orion.
"These are the medicines that need to be changed. You're far away, and if you can come over, I'll change it for you. If you can't get over, just find a doctor to help you change. Also, the consultation fee this time. ”
When it came to the consultation fee, Orion immediately came to his senses. No matter what era it is, ordinary people are reluctant to hear the figures behind medical expenses.
"The total cost of medicine is two taels or three pieces of silver. Deduct the herbs you brought today, and you still owe me two taels of silver. How are you going to pay? ”
"Well, doctor. As you said, I'll be able to recover in the future. You see, if this will work, I can't get the money out of it now. When I get better, I'll continue to send you medicine to pay off the debt. ”
Orion said this, and he almost burrowed into the ground in shame. There is also a reason why he did not go to other medical clinics. They went to the city hospital and had to get the money first. Otherwise, those hospitals wouldn't have accepted their patients.
Coming to Lu Xiao here is also a chance of luck. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao didn't mention the money at all, and directly treated the injury first, and then said the consultation fee.
Lu Xiao also reacted at this time. He healed those high-rollers. I didn't expect that this time it was the lowest hunter who was being treated.
"Okay, you've sent me medicine a dozen times, I believe you. In the future, it will be deducted from the herbs you send. ”
"Thank you, doctor, thank you." Orion was going to kneel down and kowtow to him on the spot. It's a pity that his legs are still clamped, where to kneel. In the end, he could only limp away with the support of his companions.
After sending off the only patient who had been open for two months. Lu Xiao's life in the hospital has once again returned to its previous state.
After the hunter went back, he tried his best to promote Lu Xiao. said that this doctor has good medical skills and good medical ethics. But he was just a poor hunter. What he said could not be spread for twenty miles. Therefore, in the capital, Lu Xiao's medical hall is still unknown.
It wasn't until more than twenty days later that Orion walked to Lu Xiao's medical hall again.
"Looks like he's recovering well. However, it is still almost hot, so it is better not to go up the mountain for the time being. ”
"Got it, doctor. You're a god. My family has been a hunter for generations. My grandfather broke his leg when he was going up the mountain. After that, he was lame for the rest of his life.
There are several others in the village who are like him. None of them can be cured. When I broke my leg, I thought my life was over. I didn't expect it to be cured. Don't worry, doctor, wait for me to get better. I immediately went up the mountain.
I'll tell you, the last time I fell and injured myself. It's because I saw a ginseng with a vintage. But the place is a bit out of the way, not easy to go up. When I'm healed, I'll dig it up for you. ”
"That's a good feeling." While Lu Xiao coping, he changed the medicine for the last time.
"Okay, you won't need to change the dressing in the future. In another three or five days, there will be no problem. ”
Orion's leg is completely healed. This time, it finally made a little wave. After all, his fellow villager had seen him break his leg with his own eyes. At least among those medicine farmers and hunters, Lu Xiao is already a real doctor.
He started having patients come to his door. Although most of them are farmers and hunters outside the city. But at least the clinic is starting to gain popularity.
Man is a herd creature. There are people coming to the hospital all the time. Gradually, the residents of the city were driven. Gradually, some people have the mentality of trying it out and find Lu Xiao's medical center.
As time went by, the patients gradually discovered that the young doctor had more than two strokes. It's a miracle doctor. At first, everyone just found a small illness of headache and brain fever.
Later, some old diseases with waist and leg pain also tried to find him. As a result, it doesn't take a few days, it's not a cure. It's a great relief.
Until an old man in Dongshi who has been paralyzed for more than ten years. Under Lu Xiao's treatment, when he stood up again with crutches. Lu Xiao's medical hall finally became famous.
And when the fame is great, the bait will naturally become conspicuous.
