Night falls and the stars twinkle.
In the darkness of the night, you can see from afar that the two lanterns hanging on the carriage sway left and right as the horses move forward.
The carriage was moving quickly on the official road. Monkey held the reins tightly, controlling the horse and trying his best to speed up.
Following behind the carriage was Guo Dalang on horseback, while Tiezhu was sitting in the carriage taking care of the injured Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was lying in the carriage, his face pale, his hair wet with sweat, and he looked very weak.
Tiezhu wiped the sweat from Lin Feng's forehead from time to time and kept an eye on his wound.
The carriage was bumpy as it was running, the sound of horse hooves echoing in the night sky. The group traveled from dusk to early morning, and the carriage finally arrived at the gate of Rongcheng.
At the open city gate, there was a constant stream of passers-by coming and going.
Without stopping, they drove the carriage straight towards Doctor Zhou's Xingren Hall.
In just half a cup of tea, the carriage stopped in front of the drugstore. Monkey rushed into the drugstore and called for Doctor Zhou, while Tiezhu followed closely with Lin Feng in his arms.
Doctor Zhou stood up immediately upon hearing the call and hurriedly arranged Lin Feng to the inner room.
At this time, Lin Feng had begun to feel confused, and his face was terribly pale.
Looking at Lin Feng lying unconscious on the bed, Doctor Zhou immediately stepped forward to check the injury on Lin Feng's chest, carefully felt his pulse, and then sealed the acupuncture points on Lin Feng's chest with silver needles.
Monkey looked at Lin Feng's face, which was even paler than yesterday, and asked anxiously, "Doctor Zhou, how is it? When can this short arrow be removed?"
Doctor Zhou said sternly, "Such sleeve arrows are likely to have barbs. Pulling them out like this would probably bring out a large piece of flesh and blood!"
After hearing this, the monkey asked hurriedly, "Then, Doctor Zhou, just tell me what we are going to do?"
"I have two options. One is to cut the wound open with a knife and remove the arrowhead. The other is to pierce it directly. Think about it first and make a decision."
Then he said to Zhou Xun beside him: "Go and get three grams of Codonopsis pilosula, three grams of Astragalus membranaceus, three grams of Atractylodes macrocephala, five grams of Dragon Bone, one ounce of Cuttlefish Bone, three grams each of Donkey-hide Gelatin, Rubia cordifolia Root, and Tortoise Shell, one gram of Panax notoginseng, and three grams of Sanguisorba officinalis charcoal. After you get them, boil the medicine. I'll go prepare the utensils!" After that, he hurried out of the inner room.
Lin Feng was a little confused at this time, and the decision-making process obviously fell on the shoulders of these three people.
Tiezhu said anxiously, "You usually have the most ideas, so how do you choose?"
Monkey pulled his hair in distress: "This concerns Brother Feng's life, how can it be the same as playing tricks!"
At this time, Guo Dalang, who was taking care of Lin Feng at the bedside, said, "I think we should let the boss's family know about this. Why not ask Miss Li?"
The monkey was awakened by these words and immediately said to Tiezhu, "I'm going to Lijia Village now, you stay here and take good care of Brother Feng!" Then, without waiting for Tiezhu's answer, he immediately ran to Lijia Village.
Back in time, Monkey rode a horse and took Li Yan to the city.
Li Yan was very confused when she learned that her uncle was dying. In such an ancient time with a shortage of medical care and medicine, her uncle suffered such serious injuries, which made Li Yan very anxious.
She forced herself to calm down and think about what the monkey had just said.
This would allow the entire arrow to penetrate the body, which was obviously not a good idea. Not only would the wound expand, but the bacteria remaining on the arrow shaft would be fatal to Lin Feng. There were no antibiotics in ancient times!
Having made up her mind, Li Yan's heart gradually calmed down. She turned around and said to the monkey behind her: "Just cut open the wound and take out the arrowhead!"
Hearing Li Yan's firm tone, Monkey was no longer hesitant!
The two of them quickly arrived at Dr. Zhou's Xingren Hall.
Li Yan was the first to enter the room and found Doctor Zhou in the inner room, who was examining the wound. "Doctor Zhou, do you think it's okay to remove the arrowhead with a knife?"
Doctor Zhou nodded and said frankly, "This is the better option. I've carefully examined your uncle's wound. Fortunately, the arrow wasn't embedded very deeply. We only need to make a small incision along the side of the wound to remove it!"
Since Doctor Zhou had said so, Li Yan didn't hesitate any more and said with determination, "Thank you for your help!"
Doctor Zhou nodded, then ordered Tiezhu and Monkey to come over and hold Lin Feng's body down.
He took out a very sharp knife from the medicine box on the table, put it on the fire to warm it, and then walked towards Lin Feng.
