Chapter 62 Your man is not dead yet...
Xiao Ning slept very restlessly. In her dream, she felt pain all over her body. She lay on the ground, not wanting to move, but a warm liquid fell on her face, almost drowning her...
Xiao Ning frowned, his eyelashes trembled a few times, and finally he opened his eyes with difficulty.
The sobbing sound in my ears became clearer.
The princess, who had always been proud and noble, held her hand at this moment, her eyes red and tears rolling down her cheeks.
Xiao Ning stretched out his other hand with all his might, wanting to wipe away his tears, but he couldn't reach it, and his hand fell down due to exhaustion.
The slight noise woke Shang Xi, who was immersed in his emotions.
He raised his eyes and met Xiao Ning's smiling eyes.
His face was pale and ugly, but his eyes still sparkled.
She said weakly: "Why are you crying? Your man is not dead yet..."
Shang Xi leaned over and hugged Xiao Ning in his arms.
"Xiao Yanqing...you are not allowed to die! You are not allowed to die..."
Xiao Ning reluctantly raised his hand, touched his back, patted it gently, and coaxed him in a child-like tone: "Don't worry, I will not die. As long as the princess doesn't despise me, I will accompany her forever."
This sounds awkward no matter how you listen to it.
Shang Xi let go of Xiao Ning and snorted with a thick nasal voice: "Don't talk nonsense, it's fine as long as you and I don't interfere with each other."
Xiao Ning lowered his eyes and sighed, pretending to be sad: "It's pitiful that I went through fire and water for the princess, but in return the princess said, 'Don't interfere with my business.'"
Shang Xi: “…”
Resist the urge to punch Xiao Ning.
Shang Xi repeated what the doctor had just said.
"The pain of having your arm chopped off... can you bear it?"
When Shang Xi talked about this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red again.
Even if she survives in the end, she will become a disabled person, and she still has great ambitions that have not been realized.
I can’t even go to the Gyeonggi Camp.
I can only stay in the yard, like a bird in a cage.
Xiao Ning: “…”
quack!
How far has it come to the point of requiring amputation?
They also said that amputation was the only way to survive...
Look how scared her delicate princess is.
Xiao Ning gestured to Shang Xi to help her up.
She sat up, lifted up her injured and festering arm, and used her fingers to pry open the wound to take a look.
Shang Xi couldn't help but frown when he saw her actions, but she remained calm.
After Xiao Ning finished looking through it, Shang Xi quickly handed him a handkerchief, and Xiao Ning wiped the blood and rotten flesh off his hands.
She said, "This injury isn't enough to warrant amputation. Just remove the rotten flesh and apply medicine to stop the bleeding. As for infection..."
There is no penicillin here, but allicin has the same effect and is not too difficult to extract.
Xiao Ning looked at Shang Xi, "Princess, I need your help with something."
Shang Xi said: "Just tell me what you need me to do."
Xiao Ning told Shang Xi the method of extracting allicin.
Shang Xi frowned after hearing this, "Can this really heal your injury?"
Xiao Ning looked at him and smiled softly: "Princess, don't you trust me?"
"Of course I believe you, but..." Shang Xi stopped talking and was silent for a moment. Finally, he nodded firmly at Xiao Ning: "I will definitely extract the allicin you mentioned!"
Xiao Ning asked him to find the doctor who had just treated her injuries.
The doctor was in the yard, waiting for Shang Xi to make a decision on whether to amputate Xiao Ning's arm.
Seeing Shang Xi coming out to find him, he asked, "Have you made up your mind, young lady?"
Shang Xi said, "My husband has woken up. Please, doctor, please come in. He has something to tell you."
The doctor was surprised and asked, "With such injuries and a high fever, how can you still be conscious?"
When I entered the room, I saw Xiao Ning leaning against the head of the bed, awake. Although his face looked pale and tired, his eyes were clear.
The doctor stroked his beard, amazed.
"The young man is in good health. Even in this state, he can still wake up."
Xiao Ning smiled at him.
"Sir, please take a seat. I would like to discuss something with you regarding my injury."
Xiao Ning simply explained her thoughts to him.
The doctor frowned upon hearing this. "Your injury has been delayed for too long. If you do this... I'm afraid you'll have to remove a lot of flesh. There's no guarantee it won't fester again. It's better to just amputate your arm. As long as you can endure the pain, there's still a chance of survival."
"You and your wife don't look short of money. You can buy some painkillers when the time comes. Your chances of survival are very high."
Xiao Ning: “…”
She took a breath, rested for a while, and said to the doctor again: "Old sir, the allicin I just mentioned to you is to prevent the wound from getting infected and festering again."
"Garlic does have some medicinal value, but this allicin..."
Xiao Ning said, "Please trust me, old man. If I can succeed this time, you can do the same when you encounter similar injured people in the future."
The doctor stroked his beard, pondered for a long time, and finally nodded.
"Let's make a deal, if anything goes wrong later, don't blame me, the old man."
Xiao Ning nodded in agreement, "Of course, this is Xiao's own idea. No matter what the result is, my wife and I will accept it."
On the other side, Shang Xi asked Aunt Zhou to take him to see the village chief.
After all, a lot of garlic is needed to extract allicin, and he is unfamiliar with the place, so it is not convenient to go from store to store to look for it.
Shang Xi gave the other gold bead he had picked off his clothes to the village chief.
He explained his purpose to the village chief and bowed, saying, "Village chief, please do me a favor."
As the village chief, he has seen more of the world than others.
Although Shang Xi was dressed in rags, he was fair-skinned and handsome, with an outstanding temperament.
He must be from a big family.
Now that they have fallen into trouble and come to their village, that is their village’s luck.
If we help them get through this difficult time now, they may miss our kindness in the future.
For these nobles, even a little bit of food that slips out from between their fingers is enough for the entire village to eat.
Moreover, he also took such a golden bead as a reward.
Even if they don't repay you, they won't lose anything. You can just consider it as doing good deeds.
The village chief declined, "I'm just looking for some garlic. Why would you need this? It only makes a few cents if you sell it. Put this away, young lady. You'll need money to go home later."
Shang Xi forcefully thrust the item into the village chief's hands. "We are extremely grateful that you, Village Chief, are willing to help us. How can we let you work so hard and end up with nothing?"
The village chief took the gold beads and paid the villagers at a price higher than the market price.
Under the coordination of the village chief, not only garlic, but also everything needed to extract allicin was quickly prepared.
The little girls in the village all liked this fairy-like sister very much, and took the initiative to help him prepare allicin overnight.
Because Shang Xi spent money to buy garlic, the villagers didn't say anything and let the girls in their families go to help. Anyway, it was the slack season recently, so they had finished their work early.
Shang Xi was smart. He followed the steps Xiao Ning told him and succeeded almost without any failure in one go.
Shang Xi put the extracted allicin in a bowl, brought it into the room, and woke up the sleepy Xiao Ning.
"Xiao Yanqing, I extracted the allicin according to your method. Take a look..."
Xiao Ning propped himself up and sat up, took the bowl, tilted his head back and drank the extract in the bowl in one gulp.
"...Why did you drink it directly? Aren't you afraid that I'll fail?"
Xiao Ning returned the bowl to him, "I believe in the princess."
And how bad can the failure be? Her wound is already seriously infected, so we should try our best.
