Something's fishy.
“Okay.” Xu Zhixun followed Long Qian out of the warehouse.
It was already 5:30 pm.
It was extremely hot, and the sunlight was blinding.
The farmer's yard was a scene of utter devastation, with blood flowing like a river.
Many corpses lay scattered on the ground.
Among them were the corpses of soldiers from the Dragon Kingdom, as well as the corpses of assassins.
The maids were so frightened that they cried, huddled together, trembling.
Many soldiers were also wounded.
Several military doctors are treating the soldiers' wounds.
Xu Zhixun smelled a strong stench of blood in the air.
She gagged and almost vomited.
"Zhi Xun, are you alright?" Long Qian asked anxiously.
"I'm fine, where's Zhang Fuyao?" Xu Zhixun looked around and asked with a complicated expression.
Marshal Zhang said sadly, "Fuyao is injured. She's in a tent, and the medic is treating her."
Xu Zhixun frowned and looked around at everyone:
"You thousands of soldiers, how could you fail to protect Zhang Fuyao?"
“Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, those assassins are incredibly skilled in martial arts. I originally wanted to take the Second Miss and escape on horseback, but the Second Miss refused to run away!”
Feeling extremely wronged, Eunuch Yang complained to Xu Zhixun.
"The second young lady insisted on fighting the assassin, and was stabbed in the face and arm by the assassin's sword!"
"This is terrible! The Second Miss might be disfigured!" Yu Zan said worriedly.
"Sigh, Zhang Fuyao really shouldn't have fought with the assassin." Xu Zhixun sighed.
Long Qian thought for a moment, then solemnly said to Xu Zhixun:
"Zhi Xun, many soldiers are injured. Can you take me to the Heavenly Court?"
"Shall we go buy some medicine for knife wounds?"
Marshal Zhang's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, yes, Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, quickly take the Sixth Prince to buy medicine!"
"The medicine from Heaven is definitely better than the medicine from the Dragon Kingdom!"
Xu Zhixun said helplessly, "Okay, but the medicine is special, I can only buy a little, not too much."
Long Qian: "Alright, I can't go to the Heavenly Court in armor. I'll go change my clothes."
After saying that, Long Qian went into the tent and changed into a black outfit.
When he stepped out of the tent, Xu Zhixun belatedly noticed that his right hand was wrapped in white gauze!
"Hey, what happened to your hand?" Xu Zhixun asked hurriedly.
"It's nothing, just a minor injury," Long Qian said casually.
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, just now an assassin slashed the Sixth Prince's right hand with a sword!" Eunuch Yang's voice was choked with sobs.
"That sword is poisoned! My heart aches for the Sixth Prince!"
"What? The sword is poisoned? Then I'll take the Sixth Prince to the Heavenly Court to see a doctor right now!" Xu Zhixun was flustered.
Next, she led Long Qian into the Time-Space Supermarket.
The two passed through a time portal and arrived in the modern era.
Because Long Qian doesn't have an ID card, Xu Zhixun can't take him to a major hospital.
She took him to a clinic.
There was a middle-aged female doctor in the clinic.
After examining Long Qian's injuries, the doctor determined that Long Qian's wounds needed stitches and advised him to go to a larger hospital for treatment.
However, Xu Zhixun pleaded with the doctor to treat Long Qian's injuries, citing her lack of money to go to a major hospital.
When the doctor saw that Long Qian's wound was poisoned and noticed that he refused to go to a major hospital, he felt that something was amiss.
The doctor initially wanted to call the police, but fearing retaliation from Long Qian, he had no choice but to treat Long Qian's injuries.
The doctor treated Long Qian's wound and then found something to stick on it.
This thing looks like a band-aid, but it's not quite the same as a band-aid.
It's like two Band-Aids placed side by side.
Four small zippers connect the two band-aids together.
"Doctor, what is this?" Xu Zhixun asked curiously.
"This is a 'no-suture dressing.' After using it, you won't need stitches, but it's only suitable for relatively small wounds," the doctor explained.
"If it's a large wound, stitches will still be needed."
"Oh, I see!" Xu Zhixun suddenly realized.
At this point, the doctor peeled off the wrapping paper from the no-suture dressing and then gently pulled on the four small zippers.
In an instant, the wound on the back of Long Qian's hand was stitched up tightly.
"Wow, the technology is so advanced these days!" Xu Zhixun exclaimed in amazement.
Long Qian looked surprised and thought the wound-free dressing was very advanced.
"Don't get your wound wet. You need to avoid certain foods recently, including spicy and irritating ones, understand?"
The doctor picked up a pair of scissors, cut off the extra small zipper, and then instructed Long Qian.
"I'll remember, thank you." Long Qian smiled.
The doctor thought for a moment and then asked Xu Zhixun, "Is he your boyfriend?"
Xu Zhixun smiled awkwardly: "No, he's my good friend."
The doctor frowned: "Your friend needs an IV drip, otherwise the wound may become infected."
Xu Zhixun: "Okay, how much?"
Upon hearing this, the nurse dispensing the medicine calculated the price:
"1980 yuan".
"Huh? It's so expensive?" Xu Zhixun was startled.
The female doctor said seriously, "Your friend has a knife wound, and the wound is quite deep. He needs to have intravenous fluids for seven days and also take medication."
"I prescribed him amoxicillin capsules, which can relieve inflammation."
Xu Zhixun didn't understand why this clinic charged such high prices.
The female doctor saw through Xu Zhixun's thoughts and said helplessly:
"If you think that getting an IV drip here is too expensive, you can just pay for the medical treatment and then find another clinic to get the IV drip and medicine."
"This...no need, I'll give you the money!" Xu Zhixun said with a complicated expression.
The female doctor reminded her, "Our clinic accepts medical insurance cards. Did you bring your medical insurance card?"
Xu Zhixun: "No, I'll just give you the money directly!"
After saying that, Xu Zhixun paid with her mobile phone.
Afterwards, the nurse led Xu Zhixun and Long Qian to a ward on the left side of the clinic.
There is a row of wards on the left.
Each ward is a small glass house, separated by glass walls.
The nurse helped Long Qian sit on the hospital bed and then prepared to give him an IV drip.
Xu Zhixun quickly said to Long Qian, "The IV drip will hurt a little, but it won't hurt too much. Just bear with it."
Long Qian chuckled softly, "Alright."
"Don't be afraid, my IV drip won't hurt."
After the nurse finished speaking, she brought the IV drip and hung it on the shelf next to the hospital bed.
Immediately afterwards, the nurse carefully inserted the IV needle into the back of Long Qian's left hand.
"Miss, come find me when the IV drip runs out," the nurse instructed Xu Zhixun.
"Okay, thank you!" Xu Zhixun replied with a smile.
Then, the nurse left.
In the glass ward, only Xu Zhixun and Long Qian remained.
Long Qian glanced at the IV needle on the back of his hand and asked thoughtfully:
Was the medical bill very expensive?
Xu Zhixun said with a worried look, "1980 yuan is not expensive for a big hospital."
"But this is a clinic, so the fee is very expensive."
Long Qian: "What should the normal medical fees at the clinic be?"
Hsu Chih-hsun: "If I don't need an IV drip, each doctor's visit costs about 60 to 80 yuan."
“I thought your medical bill would be around 500 yuan, but it’s four times more expensive than I expected.”
"However, it doesn't matter. As long as this doctor's medicine works, it's worth the price."
Long Qian: "Are doctors in big hospitals better at medicine than doctors in clinics?"
Xu Zhixun: "It should be better. Big hospitals mainly have very good medical equipment and some very capable experts who can bring the dead back to life."
"However, you can't go to big hospitals without an ID card, and medical treatment at big hospitals is extremely expensive."
"If you have surgery, I estimate it will cost at least tens of thousands."
And so, Xu Zhixun stayed with Long Qian, chatting in the ward.
At six o'clock in the evening, Xu Zhixun said to Long Qian:
"Wait here for me, I'll go buy some food. What do you want to eat?"
Long Qian chuckled, "I didn't know you had any good food here?"
"But the doctor just said I can't eat spicy or stimulating foods, so could you buy me some bland food?"
Xu Zhixun: "Okay, you should lie down and rest. Don't wander around."
"If you need to use the restroom, just ask the nurse where it is."
Long Qian: "Okay."
So, Xu Zhixun left the clinic to buy dinner.
Near the clinic are noodle shops, skewers restaurants, restaurants, barbecue restaurants, supermarkets, and other shops.
Xu Zhixun wandered around for a while, then packed two servings of clear soup wontons to take back to the clinic.
Afterwards, Xu Zhixun and Long Qian ate wontons together.
Long Qian said while eating wontons:
"I'll give you the money for the doctor's visit, the transportation, and dinner later. Thank you."
Xu Zhixun smiled and said, "You don't need to give me money anymore. You gave me a lot of gold ingots before, which is enough."
Long Qian: "Before, it was money to buy things; today it's other kinds of money. It's different."
"I'd like to buy some no-suture wound dressings. Do pharmacies sell them?"
Xu Zhixun: "There should be. I'll go to the pharmacy to buy some after I finish eating."
"Otherwise, the pharmacy will have to close soon."
And so, Xu Zhixun and Long Qian chatted and ate wontons.
After finishing her wontons, Xu Zhixun threw the disposable paper bucket and chopsticks into the trash can, and then went to the pharmacy to buy wound dressings.
She bought 200 boxes of wound dressings, which cost 1,490 yuan.
She also bought 30 boxes of Yunnan Baiyao ointment and 30 boxes of Yunnan Baiyao aerosol, spending 2,936 yuan.
She took a taxi and brought all the medicine back to the warehouse.
Afterwards, she took the medicine to the Xia Kingdom and told the military doctor how to take and use it.
Immediately afterwards, she rushed back to the clinic.
——————————————
At 8 p.m., Xu Zhixun walked into the clinic's ward and saw the nurse from earlier.
The young and pretty nurse, dressed in a white nurse's uniform, was talking to Long Qian.
"Young man, how did you hurt your hand?"
Long Qian said indifferently, "He was injured by my enemy."
The nurse exclaimed in surprise, "Oh dear, did you call the police?"
Long Qian answered casually:
"No, he compensated me with some money, so I didn't call the police."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Zhixun walked to the bedside.
