In order to make these things, he didn't sleep for several days. Prefect Yang gave him a hundred taels of silver. Now that the customer is satisfied, the silver can finally be put in his arms with peace of mind.
"Since it works, can Miss Yu treat my hand immediately?" Xiao Ning asked impatiently.
Yu Jiao nodded, "Okay, but we need to have someone prepare two large roosters, the bigger the comb the better, a basin of licorice water, and two jars of wine, the mellower the better."
Wine and a rooster sounded unrelated to medical treatment and more like cooking. However, the things she asked for were always strange, so the others were used to it.
None of the three things were rare, so the Yang family had hidden several jars of the best Shaodaozi. The servants went outside the house to buy two big roosters and licorice, which were soon delivered to Xiyuan.
Yu Jiao had someone clean up a clean and empty room, and handed the prepared herb bags of magnolia, cyperus, and perilla to Yu Fuling, asking her to put them in the incense burner in the room, light them, and burn the incense to disinfect and sterilize the entire room.
After everything was ready, Yu Jiao said to Yu Fuling, "You can help me while I sew it up later." She pointed at the tweezers, circular needles and other items on the wooden tray and said, "You must quickly hand me anything I need."
Yu Fuling nodded seriously and carefully distinguished the round needles and corner needles again.
"Young Marquis Gu, there is one more thing I need your help with." Yu Jiao said to Gu Yun while touching the dislocated bone on Xiao Ning's right wrist.
"Just say it." Gu Yun said calmly.
Yu Jiao pointed at the place where Xiao Ning's bones were broken, "I am not a martial artist, so I don't have enough strength. You are needed to help General Xiao break his bones. The bones must be broken exactly. Young Marquis Gu's martial arts skills are so good, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Hearing Yu Jiao talking about the fight they had when they first met, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Gu Yun's face. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Do it now?"
Yu Jiao looked at Xiao Ning, "General Xiao, please bear with the pain."
Xiao Ning sat on the chair, his back straight, his expression relaxed, and said, "Without destruction, there is no construction. I, Xiao Ning, am a real man, how can I not bear this little pain!"
Yu Jiao said no more. Xiao Ning had fought on the battlefield for many years and must have suffered countless injuries on the battlefield where people were killed without blinking an eye. To him, the pain of a broken bone was nothing.
Liu Ziqi took a folded handkerchief and handed it to Xiao Ning, but Xiao Ning refused, "I don't need this."
Yu Jiao kindly reminded, "General Xiao, you'd better bite it to avoid biting your tongue."
Gu Yun also said, "I didn't use any light force, so it's better for Brother Xiao to hold something in his mouth."
Only then did Xiao Ning put aside his pride, took the handkerchief and put it into his mouth.
Gu Yun followed Yu Jiao's instructions and grasped the dislocated bone of Xiao Ning's wrist. In a flash, he exerted force with both arms, and the sound of bones being broken was heard, accompanied by Xiao Ning's groan.
Gu Yun withdrew his hand. Seeing that Xiao Ning's forehead was sweating and his bronze face was pale, he felt a little apologetic and pointed at Yu Jiao and said, "Brother Xiao, don't blame me for being too harsh. She asked me to do this."
Yu Jiao ignored him and touched Xiao Ning's wrist. With her fingertips, she felt that the place where Gu Yun broke the bone was exactly where it was dislocated. It was exactly the same. So it seemed that Gu Yun did not break her neck directly that day and his move was relatively gentle.
She used cotton wool dipped in wine to wipe the skin of Xiao Ning's wrist bone, and said to Gu Yun and Liu Ziqi, "The bone setting scene is a bit bloody, so you two should not watch."
Gu Yun wanted to see how Yu Jiao used surgical forceps and other tools, so he was not willing to leave. He stood aside and said, "I have seen many bloody scenes. It's just bone setting. How scary can it be? You are not afraid, so why can't we two grown men bear to watch it?"
Liu Ziqi also wanted to see how Yu Jiao would reconnect the broken bones, so he stood in the house and was unwilling to leave.
The two refused to leave, so Yu Jiao had no choice but to say, "Young Marquis, please stand a little further away so as not to block the light."
Gu Yun stepped back a few steps to make room for Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao took out a silver needle from the needle bag and pierced Xiao Ning's right arm and palm several times, explaining, "I sealed a few of your acupuncture points, which will reduce the pain a little."
In fact, the acupoints she sealed have another function, which is to control blood flow.
Xiao Ning nodded. After the silver needle was inserted, he felt that his wrist was not as painful.
Yu Jiao held the scalpel and skillfully and lightly cut through the surface texture of Xiao Ning's wrist bone, revealing the white bone inside.
Xiao Ning was startled. If he hadn't had a cloth stuffed in his mouth and couldn't speak, he would have asked aloud.
Although the silver needles can slow down the blood flow, their effect only lasts for half an incense stick of time. Yu Jiao must deal with the broken bones and ligament soft tissues within half an incense stick of time.
Gu Yun opened his mouth in astonishment. He didn't expect Yu Jiao to cut the wrist bone to set the bone. "Are you going to treat Brother Xiao's hand, or are you going to completely destroy his hand?"
Yu Jiao didn't have time to explain to him, so she urged, "Go get the comb blood from two big roosters."
Gu Yun hesitated, and Yu Jiao frowned and urged, "Go quickly."
Although Liu Ziqi was somewhat surprised, at this point, he could only trust Yu Jiao's method to cure Xiao Ning's hand. He said to Gu Yun, "Do as Miss Yu says."
Gu Yun then turned around and went outside, and quickly took the blood from the combs of the two roosters.
Yu Jiao had already used tweezers to remove the broken bones in Xiao Ning's wrist. Because it was a broken bone reconnection, the injured bone was not as tough as a normal bone, and if it was broken again there would be broken bones, so she had to use this method to help Xiao Ning reconnect the broken bones.
Yu Jiao said to Yu Fuling, "Willow branch bone."
Yu Fuling had been staring at the side in a daze. Seeing that she didn't respond, Yu Jiao raised her voice and said it again. Yu Fuling then reacted and hurriedly took out the willow bone from the medical box and handed it to Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao cut the willow branch bone into the shape of Xiao Ning's wrist fragments, soaked it in licorice water, took it out, soaked both ends with the still warm cockscomb blood, and then used tweezers to embed it into the femur.
Xiao Ning's arm was trembling slightly from the pain. Yu Jiao quickened her movements, took out some catgut, threaded it onto the round needle, and skillfully sutured the injured ligament and soft tissue. She sprinkled some azurite powder to promote bone and muscle growth, and then asked Yu Fuling for a horn needle to suture the skin.
Gu Yun frowned as he watched from the side. He saw that Yu Jiao was very precise in sewing, moving the needle back and forth in the flesh and blood, as if she was not mending a human body, but doing needlework.
He felt a chill in his heart, and whispered to Liu Ziqi, "I've never seen anyone sew a body with needle and thread. Only places like the charity cemetery do this kind of body repair work. She is so skilled, could it be that she practiced on the dead bodies in the charity cemetery?"
