Chapter 34 Old Lion
Anesthesia is so important to doctors.
Jian Mo kept thinking about it and woke up early the next morning.
When he moved, the giant wolf gently put his paw on him: "It's not dawn yet."
Jian Mo turned his head to look at the window.
The bark window was replaced with a glass window, and he could see the scene outside clearly. The sky outside was gray and it was indeed not dawn.
Jian Mo moved in the quilt: "I can't sleep."
Giant wolf: "Stay in bed for a while."
Jian Mo raised his big paw with difficulty: "No, I'll get up and make some dumplings, and ask Ye Luo to come over to eat later."
There was still hair root starch at home, although not much, it was no problem to roll out some dumpling skins and wrap a few dumplings.
The giant wolf put his paw aside: "Let's see if we can bring back more of the moss that Ye Luo mentioned."
Jian Mo: "I thought so too. It's so cold, thank you for accompanying us."
The giant wolf moved away a little: "Yeah."
Jian Mo got up, and the giant wolf got up with him, changed back to human form, put on clothes, and went to feed the glutinous beast and the flying winged beast.
Jian Mo stayed at home to roll dough.
Food was not abundant in winter, so he cut a piece of animal meat and took two wood roots, peeled them and cut them into small pieces, added pickles and spices, and mixed them into stuffing.
There was not enough supplies, so he couldn't do anything fancy, so he could only take a bite.
After daybreak, Ye Luo came over: "You asked the chief to invite me to dinner? You're too polite."
Jian Mo looked up and smiled: "It's too cold. I think it's troublesome to make breakfast. Why don't you come and eat with us?"
Ye Luo: "What did you make? It smells so good."
Jian Mo: "Dumplings!"
Ye Luo looked into the house curiously: "What new food is this?"
Jian Mo invited him in: "You'll know after you try it."
The three of them sat down at the small table.
Jian Mo brought out a large ceramic bowl of dumplings and a large pile of roasted meat and placed it on the table: "Eat it while it's hot."
The starch-wrapped dumplings had a translucent skin, and you could see the filling inside.
Ye Luo picked it up and took a bite. The soft skin, diced meat and wood root mixed together made it look particularly delicious. The pickled vegetables brought a fermented flavor, making the dumplings taste even richer.
Ye Luo exclaimed: "You are worthy of being like this. The things you make are especially delicious."
Jian Mo smiled mysteriously: "Drink another sip of the soup."
Ye Luo picked up the bowl and took a sip. He was captured by the delicious taste: "It tastes good. What's in the soup? Fried bird eggs?"
Jian Mo nodded. He stirred the bird eggs into egg liquid, fried them on the stone slab, and then cut them into shreds. Therefore, the dumpling soup was particularly white and delicious: "In addition to fried eggs, there are other things."
Ye Luo Jian Mo looked at Wu Jiong and said, " Did
you taste it?"
Wu Jiong said, "Pepper core." Ye Luo
said, "Why is it pepper core? Isn't pepper core spicy?"
Jian Mo gestured with his hand, "I put a little bit, so you can't taste the spiciness, but it can remove the fishy smell and make the soup extra delicious."
Hearing this, Ye Luo took the bowl and drank another sip of the soup, tasting it carefully, "It really is." After a
delicious breakfast, they packed up and prepared to leave.
The road was too long, and the snow outside hadn't melted yet, so it was not easy to walk.
Jian Mo said to Ye Luo: "Let's go on the flying wing beast."
Ye Luo looked at Wu Jiong: "Winged beast can carry three of us? Can it do it?"
They were walking to the back of the house, and the flying wing beast heard their voices and came over. Without waiting for Jian Mo to answer, the flying wing beast understood and poked its head out and shouted: "Chirp!"
This time, Jian Mo didn't need to translate, Ye Luo understood that the flying wing beast was saying that it could carry it.
He smiled and reached out to touch the wings of the flying wing beast: "Got it."
Jian Mo: "Chirp can carry a lot, it can carry me and Wu Jiong, and two large baskets of hair roots easily, you may not be as heavy as two baskets of hair roots."
The three of them came together, and the flying wing beast knew that they were going out, so it stretched its neck and let Wu Jiong put the lasso on it.
After the rope was put on, it squatted down and waited for the three people to climb on its back. Then, under the command of Wu Jiong, it flew all the way east.
Before reaching the destination, Jian Mo saw from a distance that the top of a mountain in front was covered with dark clouds.
Lightning peeked out from the clouds and lashed the top of the mountain like a whip.
Without Wu Jiong telling him, Jian Mo knew that the mountain in front was Leigong Mountain.
No, it might be Leidian Mountain. He silently corrected the orc language he had translated before in his heart.
The winged beast had been struck by lightning and was still afraid of lightning.
Seeing that Wu Jiong was pulling the reins to go there, the winged beast hesitated and turned back: "Hmm?"
Wu Jiong patted its right front wing: "Fly lower, it's okay."
The winged beast was a little scared, but it still flew down obediently.
When it got close to the forest, the winged beast looked at the lightning in front of it and refused to fly forward.
Wu Jiong did not force it, let it land on the ground, took the reins, and let it move freely.
The three of them walked up the mountain along the hillside.
The temperature on Leigong Mountain is obviously higher than outside. There is no snow on the mountain, the grass is still green, and some of the trees have grown green leaves.
As Jian Mo walked up, he found several kinds of edible wild vegetables and put them all in the basket.
He was recently worried about not getting enough vitamins and fiber, and now was the perfect time to solve this problem.
The three of them climbed the mountain, and Jian Mo soon saw the waterfall.
Ye Luo said, "It rains frequently here, and there is water in the ditches on the mountain, so there are a lot of mosses."
Jian Mo turned around to look at the mosses growing on the trees, and nodded in understanding.
After walking for a while, Jian Mo heard the rumbling sound of a waterfall falling into a pool.
Ye Luo said, "The Leigong Pond is in front."
Jian Mo asked, "There won't be electricity in the water, right?"
Ye Luo: "How can there be electricity? It's just because it's the largest pool of water on Leigong Mountain, so everyone named it Leigong Lake. But there are indeed frequent thunders here, and no one likes to come here."
Ye Luo seemed to be familiar with every place in the tribe. He led the way in front and soon walked to the stone in Leigong Lake.
This relatively large pool of water was filled with various stones of different sizes. Because of the water vapor and temperature, the stones were full of plants.
Jian Mo looked at it and identified at least seventeen or eighteen kinds of plants.
Ye Luo searched on the stone for a while and shoveled down a small piece of moss: "The anesthetic given to you by the Mengshui tribe should be this kind of small moss."
Jian Mo looked over and saw that the moss was about the size of a palm and looked like pine needles, but there was no wax on the surface, but it was furry.
He gently pinched a piece of moss, crushed it and put it under his nose to smell. Sure enough, he could smell a bitter smell, similar to the anesthetic given to him by the Mengshui tribe.
Ye Luo: "I have observed that fish will turn upside down after eating this moss, and I thought it was poisonous, so I didn't dare to pick it. When I smelled it yesterday, I remembered it."
Jian Mo: "You are amazing, with strong observation, good memory, and quick reaction." You
are simply an encyclopedia in the tribe.
Ye Luo smiled: "I like to think about these things when I have nothing to do."
There are many such mosses growing on the stones of the pond.
The three of them shoveled up the soil underneath and carefully put it in the backpack. Soon, each of them filled half of the backpack.
Jian Mo was not sure whether this moss was the moss given by the Mengshui tribe, and how effective it was. Seeing that most of it had been collected, he said, "Let's stop here today, and come back to collect more next time when we need it."
Ye Luo said, "If you are not in a hurry, we can catch some fish and take them back. There is a kind of translucent fish in this pond. It is fat and not fishy. It sizzles and oozes oil when fried. It is especially delicious when mixed with stems."
Speaking of delicious food, Jian Mo was completely unmoved and readily followed the suggestion.
The water in the pond is a bit deep, and it is not so easy to catch fish with bare hands.
However, this is not a problem for Wu Jiong, a beastman, and Ye Luo, a sub-beastman who can shoot out sharp claws.
Ye Luo is a sub-beastman similar to a clouded leopard. He has a very strong reaction ability and can catch fish almost easily.
Jian Mo watched him catch a fish with each claw, almost without missing, and he began to understand why he could often go out alone for outdoor activities.
With this fighting ability, the forest should not be too dangerous for him even if it was just an orc.
There are so many good things in Leigong Mountain. They stayed here for a day, and when they went back in the evening, all the baskets were full.
Ye Luo did not want the moss, but only shared the small fish and wild vegetables.
Jian Mo was particularly grateful to him and forced him to go back to Wu Jiong's house for dinner.
The fried fish was indeed delicious, fresh and tender. It was great to eat it alone, and dipped in some pepper salt powder, the taste was even better.
After dinner, Jian Mo discussed with Wu Jiong: "I don't know if the moss we collected is poisonous or harmful to the body. I want to try it on the little tuk-tuk."
Their tuk-tuk gave birth to six cubs, two males and four females, all of which have been weaned. Jian Mo felt that there would not be any big problems in using them for some animal experiments.
They are all animals, so they should be of some reference value.
Wu Jiong: "What do you want me to do?"
Jian Mo thought for a moment and said: "Just observe with me. There may be something I can't notice. After feeding the tuk-tuk with moss, we can exchange the results of our observations together."
Wu Jiong nodded in agreement.
Jian Mo picked out two tuk-tu beasts, a male and a female, shaved the hair on their foreheads to mark them, and then fed them moss under the same breeding conditions.
The moss that Ye Luo brought with him really worked as an anesthetic.
After eating, the two tuk-tu beasts would sleep for about a day and a night.
After feeding them fresh moss and resting for two days, Jian Mo fed them dry moss.
This time, they were fed the dry moss given by the Mengshui tribe and the moss they dried themselves.
Based on the observation results, Jian Mo found that dry moss was better than fresh moss, and there was not much difference between the moss they picked and the moss given by the Mengshui tribe.
However, the taste of the two types of dry moss was not quite the same, and Jian Mo guessed that the moss from the Mengshui tribe had been soaked in other liquids.
The Mengshui tribe may have specially handled it to prevent them from recognizing the species of moss, but they didn't expect to encounter Ye Luo, who was knowledgeable and meticulous.
After Jian Mo figured it out, he couldn't help but sigh that some opportunities can't be prevented.
Jian Mo experimented several times, and the two tuo beasts woke up in time every time.
He observed their growth and found that they were not much different from the tuo beasts in the same nest.
Since the moss will not cause obvious effects on the young beasts, it means that they are safe. As long as they are not used frequently, there should not be too many problems.
After making sure there was no problem, Jian Mo asked the people in the tribe to spread the word that if anyone had a big wound, they could ask him for treatment.
Now there is anesthetic, which will be more convenient for treatment.
If you have a huge abscess on your back like the little beastman Taiyan, you can also come to him for surgery.
Because it is still in the experimental stage, the fee can be lower.
Jian Mo prefers to treat people from other tribes first. Unexpectedly, on the first day when the news was released, an old beastman in the tribe brought Hong Qiu, who had been scraped by Jian Mo, to come over and said he wanted to treat his teeth.
Jian Mo was surprised: "Treat your teeth?"
The old beastman Jiang Tou said: "Yes, my tooth has been hurting for many years. It hurts every few days. I dare not use this half-open mouth to eat."
Hong Qiu said beside him: "Jiang Tou wanted to find you before, but I heard that tooth extraction is particularly painful, so I never dared to come. Now that we have anesthetics, tooth extraction will not hurt, right?"
Jiang Tou looked at Jian Mo hopefully: "Does it hurt?"
It was the first time that Jian Mo met a beastman who asked for tooth extraction right away. He said cautiously: "Let me see the situation first."
Jiang Tou: "I will change into beast form to show you, right?"
Jiang Tou said, turned around, and changed back to beast form without hesitation.
He is also a cat beastman, looking like a huge lion, but his hair is gray and longer.
As soon as he changed back to his beast form, Jiang Tou lay down, opened his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's this damn tooth that has tortured me for more than ten years. My face has been tortured to one big and one small!"
Jian Mo carefully observed the big lion in front of him and found that the muscles on one side of his face were indeed particularly developed, while the muscles on the other side were a little atrophied, which did not look very good.
When he saw his mouth, Jian Mo saw a rotten tooth at a glance, and also saw other sores in his mouth.
This situation -
why does it look so much like stomatitis?
But I'm not sure, there is no way to test it here.
It feels like it may be a problem with the food, or it may be a problem with the virus. In any case, the rotten tooth has to be pulled out.
After the examination, Jian Mo asked, "Do you like to eat meat? You don't like to eat tubers, wild vegetables, berries and the like?"
Jiang Tou said in a low voice, "I'm single,
and I can't finish the meat I get every time." Jian Mo looked down at him and sighed, "If you can't finish the meat, you have to eat other foods, otherwise it will be unhealthy. Wait a minute, I'll rinse you with salt water and see where it hurts." After
Jian Mo finished speaking, he turned around to find salt water, and Wu Jiong had already handed the salt water to him.
In order to ensure safety, Wu Jiong would help Jian Mo when he was treating him.
Jian Mo smiled at Wu Jiong, took the light salt water soaked in animal urine, and rinsed the big lion carefully.
The big lion's teeth all had different kinds of damage, and the most serious one was already empty. No wonder it hurt whenever he used it.
With such serious damage, if food was accidentally stuffed into it, it would definitely cause inflammation.
After rinsing, Jian Mo tapped the big lion's teeth gently with a small wooden stick and said, "It's really necessary to extract the teeth, this one and that one."
The big lion had no objection and stuck out his tongue: "Extract it now?"
Jian Mo: "I'll give you some anesthetic first, and we'll extract it when you fall asleep."
Jian Mo took the ground anesthetic and estimated the big lion's weight and mixed him a glass of water.
The big lion did not hesitate, rolled the water with his tongue and drank it all.
But after a few breaths, he fell asleep and his tongue fell out.
Hong Qiu rubbed his arms beside him: "Is it okay now?"
Jian Mo: "Let's test how deep his sleep is."
Jian Mo poked him gently, then slowly increased the force, but the lion showed no sign of waking up.
After making sure that he was asleep and would not wake up for the time being, Jian Mo asked Hong Qiu to go out: "We are going to extract his teeth, you go outside and wait."
Jian Mo put on a mask and animal leather gloves that had been boiled, washed and disinfected, and took a wooden pliers to prepare to extract the lion's teeth.
Extracting teeth is really a physical job. Even if he pulled in the direction of the tooth's growth, he still couldn't pull it out successfully after pulling for a long time, and sweat broke out on his forehead first.
Wu Jiong saw this and said, "I'll do it."
Jian Mo took a breath and said, "Put on gloves and a mask first, it's safer." Wu
Jiong nodded, put on gloves and a mask, and took the wooden pliers from Jian Mo's hand.
The wooden pliers were very difficult to use in Jian Mo's hands, but they seemed to be tamed in Wu Jiong's hands.
He pulled out the rotten tooth of the big lion in a few strokes.
Jian Mo clamped the rotten tooth and observed it.
The part of the rotten tooth buried in the flesh was at least three centimeters long, but the root was also half empty, and it was emitting a rotten smell at this time.
If it weren't for the anesthetic, it might be difficult to handle.
It would be too painful
to pull it out directly. Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong to pull out the remaining tooth that was almost rotten, and then rinse it.
After the tooth is extracted, it should not hurt often. As for healing, it can only rely on the strong physique of the beastman.
He didn't have any medicine, so it was difficult to make other treatments.
The physique of the beastman is indeed extraordinary. The sleeping time is much shorter than that of the tuo beast, and he woke up in the afternoon.
After waking up, Jiangtou licked the empty place: "It really doesn't hurt anymore."
Jian Mo hurriedly stopped him: "Don't lick it. It's best not to use the place where the tooth was extracted in the next two days. It should be better after it grows back in two days."
Jiangtou replied: "Thank you, Doctor Jian Mo."
Jian Mo picked up the basket beside him and instructed: "Eat less meat in the next two days. Eat this basket of wild vegetables. It will be good for your body."
Jian Mo picked out many kinds of wild vegetables, most of which have anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects, and should contain a lot of vitamins.
Jiang Tou looked at it and his face fell: "It's all bitter."
Jian Mo looked at the old big cat and nodded: "It's good for curing diseases. After eating it, your toothache may be relieved."
Jiang Tou: "What if it doesn't get better?"
Jian Mo smiled: "Then come over to my side and I'll give you two more baskets of wild vegetables."
Jiang Tou looked at the young and handsome Jian Mo and suddenly shuddered. He had a bad feeling in his heart. It seems that he still has to eat wild vegetables honestly.
Otherwise, he always feels that something will happen.
