Chapter 170: Stitching the Wound



Every cub in the tribe is precious, even the males.

Everyone was very nervous, and Dongxue and others followed Lin Qiu.

The tightly closed cub was placed on the ground, with blood trickling from its abdomen staining its fur red. The soft fur was coagulated into dark red clumps by the blood, and a small part of its white intestines was exposed.

His father knelt beside him, his face filled with grief. Yuber was already a half-grown cub. It seemed that he had passed the most vulnerable period and his body began to grow rapidly. It would not be long before he would be the same size as an adult male and become a strong laborer in the tribe.

Who knew that such an unexpected event would happen...

Yu Bo's mother's face was also very pale. She seemed to be a little exhausted and had to rely on the male beside her to support her to stand firmly.

Not only Youbo's parents and brothers, but everyone present had a look of dismay on their faces.

"The medicine is here!"

Lin Qiu saw the faint rise and fall of You Bo's abdomen, indicating that he was still alive.

But, he has been sentenced to death by everyone.

Song Mu originally wanted Lin Qiu to stay away from him, not wanting her to see this bloody scene.

But unexpectedly, Lin Qiu rushed forward.

"Xiao Qiu?"

"If anyone's nearby, go back and get some wood ash water and bone needles. Use cotton thread, and soak it in the wood ash water and give it to me!"

Lin Qiu lowered his head to take a look at You Bo's condition, then immediately stood up.

"Come to my house!"

An orc nearby immediately responded. Yu Bo's father wanted to pick Yu Bo up, but Lin Qiu stopped him, saying, "Don't touch him. Everyone else, please disperse. Don't crowd around here."

You Bo's father stammered, "Lin, Lin Qiu, do you have a solution? Do you have a way to save You Bo?"

"I can try," Lin Qiu followed the orc back home and washed his hands with wood ash water.

She threaded the needle, kneeling beside Youbo with a simple sterilized bone needle.

Under these conditions, there is no need to worry about whether you are infected or not. Only by surviving can you be qualified to be infected!

Lin Qiu rinsed You Bo's intestines, stuffed them back into his stomach, and cleaned the area around his wound.

"Lin Qiu, what are you going to do?"

Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw Lin Qiu pinching the edge of You Bo's wound and inserting the bone needle into it. You Bo's mother even screamed.

"His wound is too big. If his internal organs are left exposed like this, it will be difficult to heal. I am doing this to help the skin and flesh on both sides heal together better."

Lin Qiu also felt that it was cruel, but if she hesitated for a moment, it might endanger You Bo's life.

She gritted her teeth, suppressed her fear, and quickly pinched together the three-pronged wound on Yuber's body that was torn by the beast and sewed it up.

You Bo had already fainted from the pain, but he was still cooperative.

Ling Yun, who was standing next to him, had already asked someone to grind the hemostatic flower into powder and mix it with water to make a paste. After Lin Qiu sutured the wound, he immediately applied it to the wound and wanted to cover it with animal skin.

Lin Qiu said, "Don't use animal skins. Doesn't the tribe already have some linen? Use that!"

Linen is more breathable and thinner.

As soon as she finished speaking, Youbo's father immediately ran towards the collective yard.

"Is this really okay?" Yu Bo's mother looked at Lin Qiu with hope. She also didn't want to lose this cub.

"Don't give up." Lin Qiu patted You Bo's mother's hand. This was all she could do.

All that remains is to leave it to fate.

Lin Qiu thought, if it was a female, she couldn't say for sure, but males had strong survival abilities, and Youbo was no longer a cub, and relying on its own immunity, it might be able to survive this disaster.

Ling Yun noticed that Lin Qiu was also trembling, so he walked over and held Lin Qiu in his arms.

Lin Qiu seemed to have found her backbone. She rested her forehead on Ling Yun's chest and tightly grasped the animal skin around Ling Yun's waist, her hands shaking.

Ling Yun knew that Lin Qiu must be scared. She was a member of the rabbit tribe. When he and Song Mu handled prey at home, they tried their best to avoid letting her see the bloody scene, let alone asking her to sew up a living creature with her own hands - and it was a cub from the tribe!

He hugged Lin Qiu tightly, giving her silent comfort.

After a while, You Bo's father came back with a piece of linen. The tribe only produced a little of this linen, and it had not yet been distributed to the females in the tribe. Lin Qiu hadn't even touched it.

Yubo's father bandaged Yubo's wound and left the rest to fate: "Can I move him now?"

Lin Qiu nodded. She was worried that You Bo's intestines would leak out more during the transfer, but now that they were sewn up, she no longer had that worry. "Be careful not to tear open his wound."

Yuber's father carefully carried him home in his arms.

Ling Yun dismissed the others: "Alright, let's do whatever we need to do."

Everyone was discussing: "Is Lin Qiu's method really feasible? How can a wound be sewn up with thread?"

"Well, no matter whether it works or not, at least little Youbo doesn't have to die with his stomach exposed. He can leave behind a complete body..."

Even males find it hard to bear to see the disemboweled remains, as these are children who grew up in the tribe.

"well......"

Everyone left with sighs, and Lin Qiu calmed down and took out his head from Ling Yun's arms.

"Don't be afraid. Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoqiu." Ling Yun whispered to comfort her and stroked Lin Qiu's back with his hand.

Song Mu also looked at her with a worried look on his face: "Xiao Qiu, did I scare you? If there is something like this in the future, you can tell me and let me do it. You don't need to do it yourself."

Lin Qiu nodded, but the tiger's life was at stake, and she was afraid that she couldn't explain it clearly, so she subconsciously did it herself. Now thinking about the feeling of the bone needle piercing You Bo's flesh, she also felt scared.

Ling Yun said to Song Mu, "Take Xiao Qiu home first and make her something warm to eat to help her recover. I have something else to do, so I'll be home later."

"Yeah." Song Mu took Lin Qiu's hand, which had cold fingertips, and stroked it in his hand: "Xiao Qiu, let's go home first."

Something happened to one of the cubs in the tribe, causing the entire tribe to be in a gloomy mood.

Everyone was discussing Lin Qiu stitching You Bo's wound, and after all, most people were pessimistic about it.

Even Lin Qiu was worried, not sure if You Bo was really okay.

However, her actions gave hope to Youber's father and mother.

Yu Bo's father did not sleep the whole night with Yu Bo, and although his mother was not there to take care of him, she tossed and turned all night out of worry.

Youbo just felt extreme pain all over his body, so painful that he could only feel pain and could not feel anything else, nor could he muster the strength to do anything.

He subconsciously twitched his leg in pain. Seeing this, Youbo's father excitedly shouted, "Youbo! Youbo, are you awake?!"

He stared at Youbo carefully, but saw no reaction from Youbo, as if the movement of his legs just now was just an illusion.
