"Don't talk nonsense!" The man glared, "Our lady is very lucky, how can she tolerate your nonsense!" After saying that, he paused again and stopped getting angry. It's not easy to get a doctor in the mountains. The ones who came before were all kidnapped by them, and they couldn't cure them after several attempts. Later, they analyzed that it might be that the kidnapped people were unwilling to treat them, and they didn't treat them well. Even beating and scolding didn't work, because their boss didn't want to hurt good people easily. What's more, doctors are all men, and it's always inconvenient for the lady to see a doctor. Today, there is finally a doctor who came to the door on his own initiative, and she is a female doctor. At least she should be taken in to see the lady, and she can't just leave like that.
When he thought of this, his tone softened and he took the initiative to bow to Feng Yuheng, "I am a rough man from the mountains and fields and I speak directly. Please don't be offended, female doctor. Now follow me into the village! Let's meet our leader first, and then it won't be too late to see the lady." After saying that, he turned sideways and made a very polite "please" gesture, which made Feng Yuheng and the others doubt their identities again.
It took about an incense stick of time to walk from the mountain gate to the center of the mountain stronghold. Along the way, he saw many so-called mountain bandits training. Ban Zou touched his nose and muttered in confusion: "How can mountain bandits train soldiers?"
Ban Zou was right. They were indeed training soldiers. Feng Yuheng was so familiar with this training mode that she could tell it almost at a glance. She did not respond to Ban Zou's words, but she was thinking about the origins of the people in Qingshan Village. Or was it just because there was a former soldier here who was chosen by the leader to train his men according to the standards of a soldier? But thinking about it again, it was not right. People who could become mountain bandits basically had no self-discipline. Even if there was a former soldier leading the training, it was impossible to train everyone in such an orderly manner, and it was even more impossible to make everyone willing to be led and tamed in such a strict manner.
She was still thinking, and when she looked up, she saw that they had arrived at the wooden house where the head of the family was. Someone went in to report, and soon, a man in his twenties came out. The man looked a little excited, rubbing his hands and asking the messenger beside him: "Is there really a female doctor coming?" He spoke in a loud voice, with a tall figure, standing there like a small mountain, looking very down-to-earth and steady.
The messenger was the one who had led Feng Yuheng and the others all the way here. When the head of the household asked, he quickly pointed at Feng Yuheng and said, "It's this girl. She claims to be a doctor, and her maid even brought a medicine box. They said that it was someone that Hu Laosan went down the mountain to invite. Hu Laosan did go out at dawn, and I didn't expect that he actually invited a female doctor back."
The head of the family walked up to Feng Yuheng before he finished listening, and without saying a word, he saluted Feng Yuheng. The etiquette posture was standard, it was a military salute.
Feng Yuheng narrowed his eyes and looked at him. There was a scar on his jaw, scratched by a sharp weapon, and his skin was rough and black, as if he had been exposed to the sun for a long time. The military salute was very natural and unpretentious. It was obvious that he was used to this way of saluting. He just didn't expect that a female doctor who came up the mountain could understand this posture.
After he finished his greetings, he said, "Thank you, female doctor, for coming to the mountain. To be honest, my wife has been very sick, and has been even sicker in the past six months. She can hardly get out of bed. I have invited several doctors before, and they all said it was tuberculosis and there was no cure. But my wife and I have a deep love for each other, and I can't watch her die like this, so I sent people everywhere to invite doctors. Since the female doctor is here, please take more care of her. As long as you can cure my wife, you can ask for as much money as you want. Even if you have to take away my village, as long as you can leave food for my brothers, I will give it to you." He patted his chest and made a promise while speaking. It was not a big deal, but Feng Yuheng chose to believe this man. Although he was a mountain bandit, she never doubted her judgment of people. This man was a man who kept his word and was worthy of respect.
"Whether it can be cured or not, you have to take me to see it first before we can talk." She didn't ask any more questions and directly suggested going to see the patient.
The head of the family was naturally very happy to do so. He personally led them around to the backyard and stopped in front of a bamboo house. He then looked at Ban Zou awkwardly and said, "Little brother, I'm sorry. I know you are here to protect the female doctor. But it's not very convenient for a woman to stay in the inner room. You see..."
"No problem." Feng Yuheng waved his hand and said to Ban Zou, "Just wait outside." Then he took the medicine box from Wang Chuan and said, "You guys wait outside too." Then he picked up the medicine box, stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the bamboo house, and walked in without bringing any servants with him.
The head of the household suddenly admired Feng Yuheng and said to the three people left outside the door, "Don't worry." Then he followed them in, leaving only the person who led the way to accompany the three of them.
The air in the patient's room was not good. Feng Yuheng had already put on a mask when she entered the room. Seeing the strange look in the head of the family's eyes, she did not explain much, but just told him that this was her habit in practicing medicine. As soon as she finished speaking, the patient's coughing sound came. Feng Yuheng listened for a while and had already made a preliminary judgment in her heart.
If I'm not mistaken, it should be tuberculosis. Ancient people didn't know what tuberculosis was. When they encountered this kind of disease, they called it pulmonary tuberculosis. In ancient times, pulmonary tuberculosis was basically incurable. It was not easy for this lady to survive for more than half a year. She walked forward and saw the woman lying on the bed. Although she was in her early twenties, she looked very old and thin because of lying in bed for a long time. Her eye sockets were deep. Although her eyes were open, they were dull. Since she was looking at her husband, she was also covered with a thick layer of death.
"Why did you call the doctor again?" The woman heard the conversation at the door from inside the house. She knew that the doctor who came was a female doctor, but she felt that she had no hope of survival. She had seen so many doctors but saw no improvement, and she had given up on herself. She complained to her husband: "Don't kidnap people to the mountain again. My disease cannot be cured. I will just wait for death." After that, she looked at Feng Yuheng and said apologetically: "This little girl, I'm sorry, you must have been kidnapped by him, right? Don't be afraid, although they are mountain bandits, they will never hurt people for no reason. They kidnapped you because they are anxious to treat me. Don't worry, I will let him take you down the mountain and the consultation fee will not be less." After that, she coughed again, and brought a mouthful of blood.
"Madam!" The head of the family stamped his feet anxiously, stepped forward to support the lady, and while helping her to calm down, he said: "This time you were not tied up, but invited. This female doctor voluntarily came up the mountain to treat you. Don't talk nonsense. What can't be cured? I, Li Zhu, don't believe that I can't cure my own wife!"
Feng Yuheng had no intention of watching the two show their affection, so he turned around, put the medicine box on the table, and started searching in the space without telling them.
Although he hadn't done much research on the background of Qingshan Village, he could still make a rough guess. If he was right, this should be a bandit group made up of soldiers, and they were not wounded soldiers. Judging from their age, they should be active soldiers. She couldn't understand why active soldiers turned to banditry like this?
In theory, tuberculosis should be tested for tuberculosis bacteria and combined with chest X-rays to directly identify the symptoms. However, these solutions are impossible to implement under current conditions. She can only start with the most primitive method, pinching the pulse and listening to the heart.
It is not difficult to diagnose this disease. Feng Yuheng is very sure that this is typical pulmonary tuberculosis. However, the size of the tuberculosis ball cannot be determined at present, and it is impossible to distinguish whether it has developed into lung cancer. However, judging from the patient's condition, it should not be cancer. At least it has been half a year since the disease occurred. Under such conditions, he can still be awake and alive, so the probability of cancer is not high.
"Is it really tuberculosis?" The head of the family asked Feng Yuheng anxiously, "Can it be cured?"
Feng Yuheng took out an injection from the medicine box, mixed several drugs and drew them into the syringe, then said to them: "I am going to give you an intramuscular injection. This method is different from the doctors you usually see, and this should be the first time you have seen it. It is a bit painful, but not unbearable. You can call this disease tuberculosis, although I have another name for it, but I think they are almost the same, just a name." She asked the head of the family to turn the patient over and inject the buttocks muscle, which was a very embarrassing part for ancient people, and the patient was a little embarrassed.
However, the head of the family was relieved and kept saying, "Thank goodness it was a female doctor, thank goodness it was a female doctor."
The injection into the buttocks was painful, and Feng Yuheng had to admit that it was painful, but it was also a very effective method. The main ingredient of the drug was streptomycin, an aminoglucosamine antibiotic, an aminoglycoside compound, which combined with the ribonucleic acid protein body protein of the tuberculosis bacillus, interfering with the protein synthesis of the tuberculosis bacillus, thereby killing or inhibiting the growth of the tuberculosis bacillus.
It sounds awkward, but it is very effective in controlling tuberculosis. At the same time, streptomycin is much less painful to inject than penicillin in later generations, and is suitable for long-term injection. Especially with the other two drugs she added to it, Feng Yuheng can guarantee that the patient will recover within two months. It's a pity that this patient may not have such a good opportunity to allow her to receive uninterrupted treatment within two months. And there are female doctors in her team, but it is impossible for them to stay with a group of bandits.
She did not hide anything and told the head of the family these facts. She also took out some medicine and told him, "The effect of the medicine is less effective, but it is not useless. Pay more attention to maintenance and keep the room ventilated. The patient should not be kept in the house all the time. When the weather is good, help her sit in the yard. This will help her recovery." After she finished speaking, she gave the patient another infusion. Because she had been bedridden for a long time, the patient not only had tuberculosis bacteria spreading in her lungs, but also had some other complications. She was even running a low fever. These were also problems that needed to be solved urgently.
The head of the family and his wife were both stunned. First, the head of the family watched Feng Yuheng inject the needle into his wife's body bit by bit. Now, they watched a strange embroidery needle-like object pierce the back of the patient's hand, and then a bag of unknown material filled with water was hung on the side of the bed. The head of the family suddenly remembered a folk legend.
