Xiao Yunying quietly took out alcohol, cotton balls, and gauze from the supermarket, then turned to see him not moving.
"Why aren't you moving? Hurry up and take off your clothes!"
The man didn't move: "Let's wait for my subordinate to return. There's no need to trouble you, young lady."
Xiao Yunying thought for a moment: "You're not shy, are you?"
The man's breath hitched, and he said, "I'm doing this for the young lady's reputation."
"No need. You said you'd leave before dawn, so no one will know. Hurry up and take them off."
I didn't think about her reputation while hiding in her house in the middle of the night, but now I do.
Oh, by the way, this person doesn't know she's a "widow".
Xiao Yunying urged him, "Stop dawdling. Your lips are all white. You'll faint from blood loss. If your enemies come looking for you, I won't be able to save you. You won't be able to run away then."
The man turned his head toward the voice: "Didn't you say you didn't know anything about medicine?"
Since he can't see anyway, Xiao Yunying rolled her eyes at him: "This doesn't require medical skills, it's common sense."
"How do you know the common sense about excessive blood loss?"
"...Because we women menstruate every month, many women suffer from anemia. If the flow is heavy for some reason, it can be harmful to the body, so it is important to understand this."
Blood is used to supply oxygen. Excessive blood loss can cause hypoxia in the body, resulting in symptoms such as pale lips, low blood pressure, cold hands and feet, and shortness of breath.
In severe cases, it can lead to coma or even shock, which was indeed common knowledge in her past life and didn't require her to deliberately learn.
What's wrong with this person? Isn't it a little too late to only be wary of her now?
He was clearly the intruder, so why does it seem like I kidnapped him?
When menstruation was mentioned, the man fell silent.
Xiao Yunying successfully shut him up and said with satisfaction, "Hurry up and take off your clothes, or I won't be able to lift you if you faint."
"Then I'll trouble you, young lady."
Xiao Yunying opened the alcohol package, glancing at the man as she did so: "Take it all off, it's inconvenient to bandage like this, put it back on later."
The man pondered for a moment, then took off the other sleeve as well.
Xiao Yunying held the alcohol to his nose: "Smell it, this is alcohol. I'm going to disinfect it with alcohol before applying the medicine."
To avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings, she specifically chose to disinfect him with alcohol.
Compared to iodine and hydrogen peroxide, this man should be more familiar with alcohol.
The man asked, "What is disinfection?"
"It's to clean your wound so that it won't fester and rot because of dirt."
"Why is the taste of this wine so strong?"
This is alcohol; how could it not be strong?
Xiao Yunying gave a simple explanation, and also told him the actions she needed to perform:
"This is distilled liquor, it's stronger than regular liquor. I'm going to start cleaning around your wound now."
What is distilled spirit?
Xiao Yunying used a damp cotton cloth to wipe the semi-dried scabs around his wound.
"Distilled spirits are ordinary wines that have been purified through a certain method. The resulting wines are free of impurities, clearer and more transparent, and have a more mellow and intense flavor."
"Where did the girl get the distilled liquor?"
Xiao Yunying threw the blood-stained medical cotton ball into the supermarket trash can and took a new cotton ball, which she then soaked in alcohol.
"They sell it in the city. The shopkeeper said that because it's in the experimental stage now, the amount of distilled liquor produced is small, and not many people know about it. It will be sold in large quantities next year. I'm going to disinfect it with the liquor for you, so please bear with it."
She wasn't foolish enough to tell this uninvited guest, who seemed relatively easy to get along with at the moment, so she made up a story that was half true and half false.
Once the distillery is built, it will produce a large quantity of distilled spirits. She wasn't lying. If the man is suspicious, he can investigate anytime.
The pain of alcohol irritating a wound is unimaginable, and Xiao Yunying didn't hesitate, disinfecting the black-clad man as quickly as possible.
The man remained silent, only reflexively tensing his muscles during the disinfection process, before relaxing after Xiao Yunying said "It's done."
"I'm going to apply medicine to you now, please bear with it."
Xiao Yunying had never used this wound powder before, but she figured it should be better than alcohol and less irritating to the wound.
She sprinkled the grayish-brown powder onto his wound like sprinkling barbecue seasoning. After a while, seeing that the wound had stopped bleeding, Xiao Yunying looked at the medicine bottle in surprise.
"It really stopped the bleeding; this powder is quite effective."
The effect is no worse than the hemostatic drugs in her supermarket and pharmacy, but I don't know what medicinal ingredients are in it.
The man turned his head slightly: "You haven't used this medicine before?"
"I've never used it. A friend asked me to keep this medicine in case of emergency. I haven't suffered any serious injuries that would require this medicine."
To be honest, even if she had suffered a serious injury, she wouldn't dare use this grayish-brown powder; instead, she would choose medicine from supermarkets and pharmacies.
She didn't know how the powder was made; it had too many impurities. She was afraid that even wounds that wouldn't normally leave scars would develop scars after using it.
She put down the medicine bottle, picked up some gauze, and said, "I'm going to bandage your wound."
She had no clean cotton cloth at home, so she could only use gauze from the pharmacy, hoping that this person wouldn't cause her trouble because of a roll of gauze.
"Raise your arm a little."
The man obediently raised his arm, and Xiao Yunying gave him a light hug. She then passed the gauze under his armpit, covered the wound with a square piece of gauze, and secured it with a long piece of gauze.
After wrapping it several times, it was tied in a knot in front of her chest.
"Okay, all done."
The man wanted to put on his clothes, but Xiao Yunying stopped him, saying, "Wait until later."
He keenly sensed the other person's gaze lingering between his chest and abdomen, and the surrounding air pressure instantly dropped.
"Get out of the way!"
Xiao Yunying sensed the change in his attitude: "Why are you in such a hurry? I saw you vomited blood just now and wanted to check if you were injured in your chest or abdomen, or if any of your internal organs were damaged."
Does this person think I'm flirting with him with my eyes?
Although he really has a great physique, fair skin, almost as big as mine, and six-pack abs...
Cough cough, what she wanted to say was that the injury on his back was definitely not related to vomiting blood; the most likely cause was some kind of internal injury.
Surgery cannot be performed here; internal bleeding is far more serious than external bleeding.
The man's aura returned to normal: "No need, I'm not injured internally."
No internal injuries?
Xiao Yunying asked skeptically, "You don't have any kind of infectious lung disease or even a plague, do you?"
She kept him because she felt sorry for him, being blind and hiding alone in the stable, and she really couldn't get rid of him. She even bandaged his wounds. If she had gotten herself hurt, she would have regretted it to death.
The man tightened his lips: "Don't worry, young lady, I'm not sick. I vomited blood because of poisoning, it's not contagious."
Xiao Yunying breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, that's good."
The man tilted his head, and she realized she had misspoke: "I meant... you should put on your clothes."
