busy.
Mu Huaixi and her colleagues in this small medical station were busy day and night for as many days as the bombing lasted.
War is ruthless.
Even with the bombardment coverage of the new weapons, wounded continued to be sent to them, and their injuries were varied.
Gunshot wounds, knife wounds, burns, injuries caused by hot or cold weapons and secondary injuries are the most common, but the dangers in this dense forest are far more than that.
Insect bites, snake venom, and even seemingly harmless plants can cause harm to humans. Mu Huaixi was amazed. He even saw a soldier being attacked by monkeys. He just went to the woods to solve a personal problem, but was bitten by a group of monkeys that fell from the sky, and his body was covered with scars.
The little brother who slept in the same bed with him was also unlucky. When he was solving a personal problem in the mountains, he was bitten on the butt by a poisonous snake and fainted at that time. If it were not for their squad leader who was serious and responsible, he would have been buried in the green.
Fortunately, Mu Huaixi was prepared and had a lot of detoxification and burn ointments. Qin Wenlong, who was originally not very interested in them, became more convinced of her after seeing Mu Huaixi's performance.
What's more, the anti-parasitic sachets she gave to everyone were really effective. She felt obligated to give to others, and for a while the atmosphere in the medical station was quite harmonious, and work efficiency continued to improve through goodwill and coordination.
"Xiao Mu, you're going to the front line with me today!" Dr. Luo appeared in front of the shed door with a medical bag.
Mu Huaixi was cleaning and suturing the wounded. He was slightly startled when he heard this, then quickly nodded, "Okay, I'll come as soon as I'm done."
As she spoke, her eyes did not leave the wound on the injured man's leg. The needle and thread in her hand moved along with her sight, and soon she pulled the rolled flesh and blood together, and tied the catgut into a beautiful knot in her hand.
"Aren't you a Chinese medicine doctor? How come you are so good at suturing?" Qin Wenlong stood aside at some point, gritting his teeth.
Qin Wenlong didn't really "hate" Dr. Mu, but Dr. Mu was only a few years older than him, but he was proficient in both Chinese medicine and surgery, which made people jealous.
But to study medicine, you either have to be gifted or work hard, which is something I can't envy.
"Just practice more," Mu Huaixi hurriedly packed up the medicine box and said a few words to Li Ying, "I'm leaving now."
"Okay, come back and teach me how to sew." Qin Wenlong took a few steps forward, limping and waving at Mu Huaixi. "Doctor Mu, thank you for your help this time!"
Originally, Dr. Luo and Qin Wenlong were the only ones who were supposed to do the front work, but Qin Wenlong had diarrhea when he woke up this morning. Although he has taken medicine, his legs and feet are still weak. I'm afraid he can only do some auxiliary work today.
Mu Huaixi turned his back, waved to him, and went towards the bamboo building.
"Can you ride a bike?" Doctor Luo was already checking the bicycles under the bamboo building. He was obviously relieved when he saw her nod.
"I'll go upstairs to get some medicine," Mu Huaixi instructed, and went upstairs in two steps. She first took some bandages, gauze and disinfectants from the warehouse, then went back to her room to get some obstacle-avoiding pills, detoxification pills, golden gun compresses, etc. She also checked the golden needles, bone scrapers and other instruments, and finally tied the dagger given to her by Ying Mingcheng around her waist.
The dagger was cold, and on the leather sheath that wrapped the dagger, there was a line of words engraved by Ying Mingcheng: "Safe travels." Mu Huaixi unconsciously stroked the line of words when he went downstairs, feeling that he had not thought about Ying Mingcheng for a long time.
But she believes that no news is the best news.
The mountain road is rugged.
In fact, it is not really a road, but traces left by people in this forest. The mountains here are not high, but the vegetation is too lush, making it difficult to walk.
The vines beside the dirt road are lurking around. Mu Huaixi believes that if the battle line shifts, this hard-won road will disappear within two weeks and be repaired by nature.
Mu Huaixi followed Dr. Luo on his bike, but his eyes kept glancing at the grass and trees on both sides.
She was identifying any herbs along the way. If there were any that were suitable, she could pick some when she came back.
She'd prepared a batch of pills and powders before deciding to come, but it was clearly not enough. Besides, as the saying goes, there's always an antidote within the five parts. Herbs that thrive in hot, humid environments are actually more effective at resisting heat and dampness. Nature works in this way, and Chinese medicine simply discovers, summarizes, and utilizes these patterns.
They pedaled for nearly an hour and arrived at a sentry box.
There were ditches and bunkers dug next to the sentry box. The straw huts behind the bunkers were filled with people, some sitting and some lying, all of them were wounded.
This place is actually some distance away from the front line and is considered a transit station for the wounded.
Each platoon fighting on the front line is equipped with a medical soldier who can treat simple injuries. If there are any injuries that are uncertain or cannot be treated well, they will be sent here and handed over to Mu Huaixi and Doctor Luo for judgment and treatment.
If they can be treated here, they will be placed here, or if they can still go back to the battlefield after treatment, they will be sent back, and those who need further treatment will be sent back to the medical center with Mu Huaixi and others.
Dr. Luo didn't say much. After parking his bicycle, he pointed to the east end of the straw hut and said, "I'll start from this side."
Mu Huaixi nodded and walked to the other side on his own initiative.
The first patient I met was bitten by an insect. There was a fist-sized lump on his calf, which was purple and red, and had a foul smell when you got close to it.
The wounded man who was bitten by insects was already somewhat unconscious. Mu Huaixi did not say anything more. He simply took out the gold needles and gave him a few injections, and then began to take his pulse and temperature.
There was no doubt that she was poisoned, but this insect seemed to be something she had never seen before, and its toxicity was even stronger than she had imagined.
She took out a small knife from the medicine box. The blade was as sharp as a willow leaf and easily cut through the skin on the top of the purple and red swelling. The fishy smell became stronger, but no blood was left.
Mu Huaixi frowned. It seemed that the venom of this poisonous insect also had the function of blood coagulation.
Her fingertips gently ran along the wounded soldier's calf, accurately sensing that the blood flow near the lump had slowed significantly and the skin appeared stiff, but the soldier's skin was too dark for her to notice.
The gold needles inserted in the chest were gently moved, and then the gold needles inserted in the legs were also lifted up and down. She used the Qi-invigorating technique to promote the activity of Qi and blood, and then cut open the wound below the lump. The black and red smelly liquid flowed out, and the blood clots could be seen in it.
The blood was drained out, the size of the lump became smaller, and the color gradually changed.
Mu Huaixi took out the detoxification pill again, asked the soldier guarding nearby for a bowl of hot water, and asked him to brew it and feed it to the man.
“Cough cough cough…”
As the detoxification pills were dissolved in hot water, the smell was stronger than the poisonous blood. The sleeping young comrade woke up with a cough and was stunned to see the doctor checking his other wounds.
"sister in law?!"
