Chapter 376: Unable to Perform Surgery
"Alas." Gu Yushan responded and was about to run out.
Gu Yuchuan, who had followed him out, quickly stopped him. "I've already asked Mu Tou to borrow a carriage from the academy. Let's just drive the carriage towards where Uncle left! This way we won't waste time."
He had a bad feeling that something must have happened to his uncle.
Mu Tou was his new servant whom he had hired yesterday. He was smart and could read people's expressions, and he was very satisfied with him.
I plan to focus on training him to be my confidant so that I don’t have to do everything myself.
Grandma thought about it. It was getting dark. Although the security in Annan County had improved a lot since Zheng Qinghe became the county magistrate, it was still a little unsafe to walk on the road at night. It would be better if there was someone to pick her up. "Okay, then you should also pay attention to your safety. If it's not possible, why not bring more people with you?"
She couldn't help but think of the incident more than ten years ago when Gu Yuchuan was inexplicably made stupid, and she felt very panicked.
Could it be that the boss has also encountered some bad guys?
The more I think about it, the more possible it seems.
At this moment, she was in a state of confusion, with her mind full of all kinds of bad things.
"No, I want to go with you!"
"Grandma, just wait for us at home. I'll take Hu Zi with me." Gu Yuchuan held down his grandmother's hand as she tried to untie her apron. "Don't you know Hu Zi's skills? Besides, you're old now. Should we take care of you or ask your uncle to help?"
"Yes, grandma, let's just wait at home and not cause any trouble. Hu Zi is very powerful. If they encounter anything, he can take on ten people at once. It's much better than us going with them." Gu Jiayue also advised.
The grandmother had calmed down by now. She knew her grandchildren were telling the truth, and that her following them would only cause trouble. "Okay, then, go quickly and come back soon. Be careful on the road."
Gu Yuchuan, Gu Yushan and Hu Zi drove a carriage towards Gu Dongxue's husband's home.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn along the way and no one spoke.
When the carriage was halfway there, Hu Zi noticed a person lying in a ditch beside the official road.
“Ouch~”
Hu Zi stopped the carriage, jumped out first and walked towards the ditch.
When they reached the roadside, Hu Zi confirmed the man's identity with just one glance. He quickly turned around and shouted towards the carriage. "Quick, it's the master!"
The two brothers Gu Yuchuan in the carriage jumped out quickly, and the three of them jumped down regardless of the danger and helped their uncle up.
"Dad! Dad!"
The uncle's face was pale and his lips were black. No matter how Gu Yushan shook him or called out, the uncle didn't respond at all.
Hu Zi quickly stopped Gu Yushan's behavior. "Don't shake him like that. It will only worsen his injuries."
Gu Yushan quickly let go, and Hu Zi gave him a rough inspection. "Look, it looks like the back of the master's head was hit by something heavy."
Gu Yuchuan took his hand away from his head, only to find that his palm was covered in blood.
He placed his hand on his uncle's aorta and felt a faint pulse. He breathed a sigh of relief. "Hurry up and get him to the carriage. Let's go back to the village to find Doctor Lin!"
Nothing else mattered at this moment.
As long as my uncle's life can be saved, nothing else matters.
Because his uncle had an injury on the back of his head, Hu Zi didn't dare drive the carriage too fast, for fear that the bumps would aggravate his injury, so everyone felt that the time to go back was even longer than the time to come.
As soon as I entered Taohua Village, I saw my grandmother and her family waiting at the village entrance.
Seeing the carriage, grandma hurried over. "Have you seen your uncle? Where is he? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Gu Yuchuan lifted the curtain to reveal his uncle lying in the carriage.
"Boss! What...what's going on? What happened to him?!"
"Grandma, now is not the time to talk about this. Please move aside and let's take Uncle to see Doctor Lin first!"
Only then did grandma hurriedly move aside.
The carriage drove all the way to Doctor Lin's residence.
"Doctor Lin, Doctor Lin, help!"
Lin Yi, who was about to rest, heard someone calling him to put on his clothes quickly.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Hu Zi and Gu Yichuan carrying my uncle to the room where he usually treated his injuries.
He followed them and started to examine the patient without them saying anything.
"How did this happen? Why is the injury so serious?"
Lin Yi just did a quick check and found the wound on the back of his uncle's head. "This is a wound left by being hit by a heavy object."
Gu Yuchuan had a bad suspicion in his mind, but now was not the time to verify it. "Doctor Lin, how is my uncle doing?"
As mature and steady as he is, he was also a little flustered at this moment.
My uncle doesn’t talk much at home. He works and eats silently like an old ox.
But Gu Yuchuan remembered that he would help him build bookshelves and desks, and would look at him carefully and listen attentively when he spoke.
I would get up early every day to fill the water tank and collect the gravel in the yard.
He is like the spring rain, silent but very important.
Lin Yi frowned. "The situation isn't good. You guys get out. I need to operate on him!"
Ever since he received the medical encyclopedia from Gu Jiayue, he has also gained some research experience in surgery.
The back of my uncle's head was smashed into a bloody mess by a blunt object. If surgery is not performed to remove the debris and rotten flesh, irreversible consequences will occur.
It is uncertain whether one can save his life.
It's already night time, and the risk of surgery is particularly high because the light doesn't allow for clear vision.
However, time was tight and the task was heavy, so the apprentices could only light a few more lights in the room.
But the candlelight was still very weak and swayed in the wind, preventing him from seeing the condition of the wound clearly, and completely failing to meet the basic conditions for surgery.
Gu Jiayue hurried over and saw Gu Yuchuan standing at the door of the room, and asked anxiously, "What's the situation?"
Gu Yuchuan shook his head!
At this time, Lin Yi opened the door and said, "No, the current situation does not allow surgery. The light in the room is too dim and I can't see clearly!"
Everyone was getting anxious. "What should I do? Can my uncle wait any longer?"
Lin Yi shook his head. "I'm not sure either. His condition isn't very good, but there's no other way at the moment. I can only temporarily seal his acupoints with silver needles. I hope he can hold on until dawn!"
"You don't have to worry too much. I'll go make him some tonic medicine right now to keep him going! It's still early in the morning, so we should be able to perform the surgery in time!"
According to Lin Yi's words, grandma and aunt couldn't stop crying. They wanted to cry, but they were afraid of disturbing the uncle inside, so they could only hold it back.
Gu Jiayue asked, "Can I go in and see my uncle now?"
Lin Yi nodded. "Okay, but no more than three people can enter."
Gu Jiayue walked in first and closed the door. Her grandmother, who wanted to follow her in, was stopped outside the door.
Grandma wanted to ask Gu Jiayue to open the door, but was stopped by Gu Yuchuan.
Looking at her uncle lying in bed, uncertain whether he was alive or dead, she couldn't help but call the system in her mind. "Do you have anything that can illuminate the system? Can you buy a solar flashlight in the system mall? Or a searchlight would be fine too."
The system responded quickly. "Yes, I do, but are you sure you want to take it out? I'm afraid they'll mistake you for a monster and capture you."
Gu Jiayue was a little hesitant, but judging from her uncle's appearance, he probably wouldn't be able to wait until dawn.
Surgery is something that needs to be done as soon as possible. If we wait any longer, there might be a lot of problems. "Don't worry, give me a flashlight! Preferably one that can be worn overhead!"
"Host, let's think of other ways!"
"What can I do? Can I buy equipment in your mall that can perform surgery without light?" Gu Jiayue had already browsed the mall roughly.
Because the system is an education system, the largest amount of items in his mall are various kinds of knowledge and basic daily necessities.
There are no more professional things like medical equipment, but there are many books on how to equip equipment.
But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. Even if Gu Jiayue is extremely intelligent, it is impossible for her to create equipment that can cure diseases and save lives just by reading a book.
Even if he could make it, he wouldn't be able to collect so many materials at once!
"Okay, since the host has already considered it, I will buy it for you."
In just three seconds, Gu Jiayue had a head-mounted flashlight in her hand. "The searchlight is too bright, so I bought you a head-mounted flashlight. It's barely enough for surgery."
Gu Jiayue placed the flashlight on the bed and walked out. "Doctor Lin, come in!"
