After a cup of tea.
Qi Yanxuan took out the surgical instruments and the baby clothing bag from the space. He was once again glad that he had not been picky when collecting supplies and had collected everything he came across.
After Qi Yanxuan sterilized all the surgical instruments, he handed Shen Yanqing a pair of medical gloves and said, "I'm going to cut open her belly and take the baby out later. You'll catch the baby after it's out. Put on your gloves now."
Shen Yanqing was only slightly shocked when he heard this, then he regained his composure, took the gloves and put them on.
Qi Yanxuan lifted up the pregnant woman's clothes, revealing her belly. After disinfecting the belly, he held the scalpel and cut towards her lower abdomen.
Soon, bursts of wolf howls were heard outside the shed. It seemed that the smell of blood attracted the wolves. The people outside the shed saw the pairs of green eyes flashing in the darkness, and they were all scared to the point of their legs going weak.
"Don't be alone! Wolves are afraid of fire! Light the torches!" Shen Yanshan's calm voice soothed everyone.
The crowd moved closer to the fire, took out their clothes and tore them into strips, poured the oil they were reluctant to use even for cooking onto the strips, then wrapped them around wooden sticks and set them on fire.
The surroundings suddenly became bright. The wolves looked at the large burning torches and retreated a little in fear, but still refused to leave. The two sides remained in a stalemate.
The two people in the shed naturally heard the wolf howling. Qi Yanxuan's hand paused for a moment, and then continued to move the knife. With Shen Yanshan outside, he thought nothing would go wrong.
Due to the lack of modern instruments, Qi Yanxuan could only inject wood-type abilities into the pregnant woman to maintain her life while cutting open her skin layer by layer.
First the skin and subcutaneous fat, then the uterus. After cutting open the uterus, the baby was seen. After taking the baby out, the umbilical cord was cut and tied. The child's face was a little blue and purple, and then the baby's butt was patted.
The child cried out loudly. The child's father outside heard the cry and burst into tears with excitement. If the young master really made the child born safely, then he would definitely be able to save his wife. He comforted himself in his heart, and the fear in his heart was calmed down a little.
Qi Yanxuan handed the child to Shen Yanqing, then took out the placenta and cleaned the uterine cavity.
He then used catgut to sew up the pregnant woman's skin layer by layer. Since he was not a professional and had only watched a video explaining a similar cesarean section, he sewed it very reluctantly. If it weren't for the wood-type ability to keep her alive, the pregnant woman would have died long ago.
After doing all this, Qi Yanxuan used all his strength to input his supernatural powers, which quickly repaired the woman's body until the wound completely disappeared.
Looking up, I saw the baby wrapped in a blanket being held in Shen Yanqing's arms with awkward movements, crying non-stop.
Shen Yanqing had a serious expression on his face, frowning as he looked at the crying child in his arms. His hands were stiff, as if he was dealing with some big problem.
When Qi Yanxuan saw Shen Yanqing like this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and the other party immediately showed an aggrieved expression.
"Okay~ I won't laugh anymore."
Qi Yanxuan went over and kissed Shen Yanqing on the cheek, then took the child and found that the child was wrapped in a quilt and had no clothes on. He looked up at the other party again.
Shen Yanqing lowered his head in shame. He said he came to help, but in the end, he didn't help much. He didn't know how to dress the baby. He didn't dare to use force in his arms to hold the soft little body, for fear of hurting it. He was also afraid that the child would be cold, so he could only hurriedly wrap the child in a small blanket.
Seeing him like this, Qi Yanxuan felt distressed again and said to him comfortingly, "It's amazing that you can wrap it like this for the first time! Bring the clothes over and we'll dress him together."
Then one of them held the child while the other struggled to put clothes on the child. It was the first time for both of them to do such a thing. After the child was dressed, both of them were sweating profusely. This was more tiring than fighting with someone.
"Go and call the child's father in."
The child's father was right next to the shed. When he heard that he was being called in, he hurried in.
"Sir! I'm coming in!"
Qi Yanxuan held the child and nodded at him, "Mother and child are safe!"
Just as she was about to hand the child to him, she saw him walking towards his wife crying with joy. Qi Yanxuan's hand that was about to hand the child froze for a moment before he took it back.
The man gently stroked his wife's face. Seeing that his wife was still unconscious, he looked at Qi Yanxuan anxiously.
"Sir, when will my wife wake up?"
"Your wife is just too tired. She will wake up within an hour."
The man finally let go of the worry that had been hanging in his heart after hearing this, and looked at the woman with her eyes closed on the bed with tenderness in his eyes.
Qi Yanxuan put the child in his arms and said, "This is your son. We won't disturb your family of three anymore. We'll go out first."
After the two men came out of the shed, they found the villagers dragging the wolf's body.
When I came to Shen Yanshan and listened to his story, I found out that when they were concentrating on delivering the baby, the wolves in the dark smelled the strong smell of blood and gradually became restless, with a vague intention of rushing up regardless of the torches.
Shen Yanshan could only strike first and use his supernatural power to pierce the ground and penetrate into the belly of the wolves. However, his supernatural power level was too low and the earth spikes could not cover the entire wolf pack.
When the other wolves saw their companion dead, they all pounced on them. The men fought with the wolves with all their might to protect their families behind them. Shen Yanshan also paid attention to the movements of the wolves. Once someone was about to be attacked, he would secretly condense earth thorns to kill the wolf.
Later, when the wolves saw more and more of their companions dying, they retreated, but many people were still bitten by wolves.
Doctor Xu walked among the wounded again, applying herbal medicine to the areas bitten by wolves. There were no tetanus shots here, so he didn't know if this would be helpful.
The crowd dragged more than forty wolves together and began to distribute the wolf meat. Since every man participated in killing the wolves, the wolf meat was distributed per head. With a team of about two thousand people dividing these forty or so wolves, each person only got a palm-sized piece of meat, but it was still extremely precious to most people who had not eaten meat for a long time.
No one was willing to eat it all at once, so they just cut a little wolf meat and stir-fried it with wild vegetables. This way the wild vegetables could get a taste of meat and everyone in the family could satisfy their cravings. The rest of the meat was smoked and preserved. Although everyone wanted to eat meat, everyone would think about the future and always wanted to store more food.
After dinner was ready, the village chief's wife left some for the scholar couple, thinking that they had escaped with only a small bag and no food, and the woman had just given birth and could not go without food, so she cooked some rice porridge for them.
Just after everyone finished their meal, the woman woke up and insisted on thanking her benefactor in person. The man held the child in one hand and supported his wife in the other hand and went out to look for Qi Yanxuan. Now that his wife was fine, he regained the elegant demeanor of a scholar.
