Chapter 472: Old Qiu urgently stops the bleeding for Liang's father
Seeing such a large stone clam thrown into the bucket, Liang's father even forced a smile.
"Hehe." He was trying hard to force a smile on his face, but he choked halfway.
Liang's father suddenly opened his mouth and vomited blood. His collar and neck were instantly stained red.
Even Liang Ziqiang's arms and sleeves were stained with bright red.
"Dad! Don't scare me, what happened? Why did it happen so suddenly?!"
Even though he had experienced a lot, Liang Ziqiang was still confused at this moment. He couldn't calm down at all and his hands and feet were shaking.
"No... I don't know. It feels like a prick on the left side..."
Blood was still flowing from the corner of Liang's father's mouth, and he spoke weakly.
Liang Ziqiang didn't care about anything else, he quickly put his father on his back and ran to the boat. While running he called his elder brother:
"Hurry up, get on the boat, drive the boat to the hospital as quickly as possible!"
The most frightening thing is something happening at sea, with no one to touch, and the hospital is a long way off.
Liang Tiancheng was also confused at the back. He picked up three fishing rods and a bucket in a panic, and even stumbled while running.
Helping his father lie down on the boat, Liang Ziqiang immediately untied the ropes, raised the anchor, and started the wooden boat.
After leaving Snapper Island, the boat went faster and faster, wishing we could have wings and fly.
Amid the crazy sound of the motor, Liang Tiancheng was already sitting on the deck, hugging his father and calling him "Dad" over and over again.
At this critical moment, he seemed more at a loss than usual, and there was no way he could try to calm down like Liang Ziqiang did. He just shouted in panic and patted his father's chest again and again.
"Don't let him lie on his back, turn him sideways, let him lie on his side!" Liang Ziqiang saw something was wrong and shouted at his eldest brother while driving the boat.
Although he still hasn't fully figured out what happened, Liang Ziqiang is clear about one thing: if he continues lying on his back and blood continues to gush out, it is easy for him to suffocate due to the blood flowing back into his throat.
After hearing what he said, Liang Tiancheng was so scared that he quickly adjusted Liang's father's lying position and made him lie on his side.
After lying there for a while, another mouthful of blood gushed out of Liang's father's mouth. This time, Liang Tiancheng's hands and pants were stained with blood, and there was also a small red spot on the deck.
Liang Ziqiang felt his heart tighten, an uncontrollable panic made him dizzy, and tears almost overflowed from his eyelids. To be honest, he had experienced many life and death and great ups and downs, but he had never been so helpless as this.
But he gritted his teeth, not wanting to panic nor letting the tears flow and blur his vision.
He also has to steer the boat calmly, keep a clear eye on the sea conditions, and keep sailing fast and safely.
The eldest brother Liang Tiancheng couldn't hold back like him, and couldn't help crying. Although he looked more sturdy than Liang Ziqiang, he cried more helplessly than Liang Ziqiang.
"Brother, be careful, don't let Dad's throat and nose get blocked by blood!"
Liang Ziqiang couldn't stop his elder brother from crying, so he could only warn him loudly.
The lotus-patterned wooden boat sailed for a while, and Liang Ziqiang looked out and saw another wooden boat on the sea, which was moving neither fast nor slow and was getting closer and closer to his boat.
When approaching, Liang Ziqiang quickly recognized that it was the boat from Piaomu Island. He originally thought that it should be Lao Xie driving the boat on the sea as usual, but it turned out that it was not Lao Xie, but Lao Qiu.
Liang Ziqiang opened the wooden board on one side of the cabin and looked out. At this moment, Old Qiu obviously also saw his boat and looked over here.
"Aqiang, is that you?!"
Old Qiu spoke first and greeted their boat.
"It's us, Lao Qiu, it's us!" Liang Tiancheng answered Lao Qiu loudly while wiping the tears from his face.
Liang Ziqiang in the cabin also stuck his head out and answered loudly.
"That's not right," Old Qiu adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "What happened? Why is your dad lying on the boat with blood all over his neck?!"
"I was fishing for snapper on the island just now, and suddenly I vomited blood. I didn't know what happened, but I said that my left chest hurt a lot, as if it was stabbed by a knife!"
Liang Ziqiang hurriedly walked out of the cabin, pointed to the position of his left chest, and told Lao Qiu loudly.
"Left chest? Has he ever had any problems?!" Old Qiu asked anxiously.
"I stayed in the county hospital once. I had an acute stomachache at that time. I was prescribed a stomachache-relieving medicine and it worked immediately!" Liang Ziqiang recalled and told.
"It's probably acute gastric bleeding!" Old Qiu said immediately, "Don't drive, stop the boat!"
"ah?"
Although the hospital is far away, there is still a glimmer of hope if we hurry there. At this critical moment, Liang Ziqiang was really afraid that stopping would delay things.
Seeing Liang Ziqiang hesitate, Lao Qiu became anxious:
"You must be so anxious that you're confused, right? Where are you? Over the sea! Even if you fly to the hospital, you won't be able to get there in a short time, right? Don't say I'm being honest. Your dad's condition means it's definitely too late to rush to the hospital. The blood he's lost is not enough to cover the amount he's lost on the way. If you keep flying, you'll be sending yourself to death. Have you forgotten who I am? The wife of a friend of yours is bleeding non-stop, and the county hospital couldn't completely cure her. Will she be cured by eating my fish maw?"
Liang Ziqiang hesitated for a moment.
In fact, he had not forgotten that Li Liang's wife had stopped the signs of miscarriage by eating fish maw. When he just left the Snapper Island, Lao Qiu's face even flashed through his mind. He wondered whether he should find the nearby Driftwood Island and try Lao Qiu's fish maw.
But the reason why we didn't go to Driftwood Island was because after thinking about it, we felt that his father's condition was different from ordinary bleeding. He was not sure whether taking fish maw would be effective. In addition, the process of boiling fish maw, eating fish maw, and waiting for the fish maw to start taking effect seemed to be quite long.
When Lao Qiu saw Liang Ziqiang's boat slow down, he said to him:
"Let me tell you, Aqiang. Even if your father is rushed to the county hospital in time, the hospital will probably give him emergency medication, which will probably be my medicine!"
The county hospital would use Lao Qiu's medicine? Liang Ziqiang was really surprised.
"I have used the medicine made from fish glue to save several patients with severe gastric bleeding in the municipal hospital and the county hospital. Don't worry, you have saved my life, and I can't harm you guys even if I harm anyone else!" Old Qiu said again.
After hearing what Lao Qiu said, Liang Ziqiang immediately made up his mind, turned the bow of the boat, and followed Lao Qiu towards the Piaomu Island.
Their current location was already very close to Driftwood Island, and as both boats accelerated, they arrived at Driftwood Island in the blink of an eye.
They quickly dropped anchor to stop the boat, and Liang Ziqiang and his eldest brother picked up his father, got off the boat and walked towards the island.
Old Qiu led the way, heading for a low house shaded by trees. I didn't see Old Xie on the island today. I don't know if he went out to take care of abalone or what. Liang Ziqiang didn't have time to ask more questions at this critical moment.
"Put you on my bed and lie on your side!" Old Qiu pointed at the bed in the room and instructed the two of them.
They did as they were told, while Old Qiu pushed his glasses frame and went to look for something in the drawer.
Liang Ziqiang thought he would find a top-quality fish maw, so he quickly thought of what to do next and asked urgently, "How about I start a fire now? Where is the pot? I'll boil water in the pot first, and then put the fish maw in to cook it faster!"
My father would vomit blood every once in a while at this moment. Time was too urgent and every second saved could mean a chance of saving his life.
Unexpectedly, Old Qiu waved his hand and quickly took out a small glass bottle from the drawer:
"No need to light a fire and boil water. In your father's case, it would take too long to make it in time if we follow that method! I specially grind the fish glue into powder because I took into consideration that some patients may suffer from acute bleeding and it may not be possible to make it in time if we follow the traditional method of boiling fish glue soup!"
As he spoke, Lao Qiu did not hesitate to pick up the kettle and pour some water into the bowl. Then he unscrewed the glass bottle and poured the brown powder into the water.
