Chapter 484: Vital Injury

The new patient is Long Yi, a 28-year-old firefighter. When he was brought in, he was still in a coma due to the anesthesia.

After Qi Xu took over his examination materials and medical records, he immediately treated his wounds.

His left leg was broken by a rock and his aorta was scratched, but the surgeon has already taken care of these serious problems.

His right leg was covered with small wounds, filled with gravel and needles, and there were countless small wounds densely packed together.

This kind of delicate work naturally fell into the hands of her, an intern who was capable, patient and had free time.

Since the operating room was full, Qi Xu could only treat his wounds in the ward.

Qi Xu's scalp went numb when he looked at the dense needle pricks.

I don't know why Captain Long is so unlucky. She fell into a pile of cactus thorns. With so many thorns, how long will it take her to remove them?

Ten minutes passed and she was pulling out the thorns!

Twenty minutes passed and she was pulling out the thorns!

An hour later, she was still pulling out the thorns!

When Lu Shixu woke up from her sleep, she was still kneeling in front of another bed, meticulously pulling out the thorn from the thigh of the unconscious Captain Long.

There was a dense layer of sweat beads on the tip of his forehead.

Just as she was digging a piece of gravel out of the patient's wound, Long Yi on the hospital bed suddenly woke up.

"Where is this? Has that lady been rescued?"

His consciousness was still at the moment of rescue.

After the patient's eyes became clear, Qi Xu told him.

"Captain Long, this is the ward. You're injured due to a secondary landslide. I'm a doctor, and I'm treating your wound."

Long Yi looked around and confirmed the current situation before asking her.

"Where am I hurt?"

Because his injuries were too numerous and spread over such a wide area, Qi Xu simply summarized it in three words.

"Lower body!"

Long Yi seemed to be struck by thunder. He screamed and tried to sit up, but he was unable to do anything.

"What's the meaning?"

"Are my legs gone? Are my knees gone? Are my organs gone?"

Because the anesthetic had not yet worn off, he had no feeling in his lower body and thought he had been cut in half.

Qi Xu comforted him. "Captain Long, don't worry. Your legs and knees are still there."

Long Yi tried to raise his head and take a look at his body, but he couldn't move.

He was completely limp and powerless. During the rescue process, his palms were cut and now they were wrapped tightly in gauze, making it difficult to lift them up.

So I could only ask her, "What about my other organs? Are they still there?"

Qi Xu didn't understand what he meant.

"What?"

"You mean your internal organs? They're all there, all intact. Your upper body is fine, there's no injury."

Long Yi gritted his teeth in anger, and in his haste he ignored his shame and spoke angrily.

"No. I mean that, the man's... Do you understand?"

"Huh?" Qi Xu really didn't understand. She hadn't seen it either, so how could she know?

"Well, I'm not sure. It should be there!"

Qi Xu's answer made Long Yi even more terrified. "What do you mean it should still be there? I want to make sure it's there."

"Go find a male doctor and check me out."

All the male doctors were busy. Currently, she was the only intern in the entire surgery department.

And the nurse is also a woman. How to find one?

"Captain Long, what should we do if there is no male doctor?"

Long Yi was so ashamed and angry that he wanted to die.

But since he was not dead, he had to live with dignity. So, after hesitating for a long time, he closed his eyes and gave the order.

"Then check it for me."

"Ah?" Qi Xu's whole body was broken.

It is too embarrassing for her, a female doctor, to examine the private parts of male patients.

"Well, I don't know how. How about I find a man to come over and take a look?"

Qi Xu hurriedly pulled a security guard over from outside.

After the security guard lifted up Long Yi's pants, he showed a sympathetic look, shook his head and sighed.

"Hey, brother, you're injured. You've lost so much blood. I'm afraid you're useless."

When Long Yi heard this, he was petrified on the spot.

Their Long family has been a single-line family for five generations. Now when it comes to him, the precious sword is useless before it even gets unsheathed?

Then how will he face the earnest expectations of his ancestors and his parents?

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

"Doctor, call a doctor over here and treat me! If you can't cure me, I'm going to die!"

The patient was so agitated that he ignored the injury on his hand and slammed the bed hard.

"Okay, okay, Captain Long, don't worry. It's okay, it will be fine."

Qi Xu held his hands, tried his best to calm the patient, and asked the nurse to find a doctor.

But the nurse turned around and came back to answer.

"Doctor Qi, the director, and the dean are all in the operating room. The other doctors have all been dispatched to the accident site for rescue and will not be back for the time being."

"You're the only one free in our hospital right now. How about you treat Captain Long first?"

The nurse explained to Long Yi again.

"Captain Long, our Doctor Qi is amazing. She's a top student at University A. She's been ranked first in her major and first in practicals for six consecutive years. Aside from not having her medical license yet, her skills are no worse than any other doctor."

Long Yi didn't say anything. In this situation, there was no better choice but to accept it.

But Qi Xu expressed embarrassment.

"No, I really can't. I'm just a surgeon. I don't know anything about men's health. How can you expect me to do that?"

The nurse said.

"Doctor Qi, please help Captain Long. Our small hospital in the border area doesn't even have a men's department. He suffered an external injury, so why not see a surgeon?"

"But I don't dare?" Qi Xu was so anxious that tears were about to come out, and his whole body was full of resistance.

Lu Shixu, who was standing aside, couldn't help but speak.

"Little girl, doctors don't care about gender. If you don't even have this much courage, how can you be a doctor? You might as well pack up your things and go home to do some needlework."

"Okay, let me see!" Qi Xu plucked up the courage and took off Long Yi's pants.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and looked at the patient's injuries.

I was indeed injured, but it was just a minor scratch, nothing serious.

The brown blood stain was caused by bleeding from the right leg's aorta. Now it has dried up and turned into a sticky black-brown patch, which looks really scary.

Qi Xu disinfected him with alcohol, cleaned his hair, and told him the truth.

"Captain Long, you're fine. It's just a minor injury that didn't damage your roots. It shouldn't affect your future use."

Long Yi didn't believe it and gave up on himself with a sad face.

"Don't lie to me, I know my own body, but I can't even feel its existence."

Qi Xu explained.

"That's because you were given anesthesia. The effect of the drug hasn't worn off yet, so you can't feel it. That's normal."

Long Yi asked. "When will the anesthetic wear off?"

"The general anesthesia has worn off, and you're currently using a pain pump on your lower body. If you remove it, your wound will be very painful, and I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

Long Yi roared regardless.

"What pain pump? Unplug it. I need to confirm right now whether I am still okay."
