Chapter 183 Stealing Skills
Lu Qingqing went over to take a look and immediately said, "We can't delay any longer, prepare for surgery!"
"What hand, book?"
"Oh, it's surgery, right away!"
Lu Qingqing had a set of surgical supplies prepared in her first-aid kit, but she had already used some purified alcohol, so it probably wouldn't be enough to open the chest again.
She put an emergency pill in the patient's mouth.
"Carry him into the tent! Prepare plenty of hot water!"
"Fu Leng, ride a horse to my house and get all the alcohol!"
"Si Xi, support!"
General Lu Qingqing usually issues a series of orders without the slightest hesitation or delay, and then enters the tent with Sixi.
The doctors were speechless.
"Does this mean she can save him?"
"She'll have surgery?"
"Who is her master? Could she be from the Holy Healer Sect?"
"How could that be? The Holy Physician Sect has always only accepted high-ranking officials and nobles as disciples. When would it be the turn of a nobody like us from a small town!"
"Besides, not everyone can perform surgery; only their sect leader and his disciple... You're saying she can't...?"
"What are you thinking! If she were the disciple of the Holy Healer Sect Master, she wouldn't be staying here. She could come and go from the palace without any problem."
Everyone looked at the dazed Physician Pang.
Question: "Dr. Pang, you didn't dare to treat her, but she did. Is it genuine or just showing off?"
After all, that person was clearly not going to survive, and he had no family left; even if he died from his illness, no one would cause trouble.
Dr. Pang snapped out of his daze and frowned upon hearing this: "Don't talk nonsense. We've all been busy here for half a day. She's not that kind of person at all. Haven't you seen more and more people going to her for treatment?"
It seems so.
The line is getting longer and longer, and it includes not only women and children, but also men.
"Alright, let those people line up over here. Dr. Lu doesn't have time right now."
Dr. Pang dismissed the others, but he stood there for a while longer.
I really want to go inside and take a look.
"Hot water is here! Hot water is here!" Two constables carried a steaming pot to the outside of the tent.
"Is Dr. Pang outside?" a clear voice asked from inside.
"Yes, yes, I'm here!"
Dr. Pang hurriedly called out, and subconsciously raised his hand.
"Dr. Pang, could you please come in and help?"
When Dr. Pang entered, he saw that Lu Qingqing and Sixi were both wearing clean, spotless white coats, their mouths and noses covered with cloth covers, and their hands were wearing semi-transparent gloves.
The patient's upper body was already naked and wiped clean.
The medicine box next to it was opened, and it had three layers in total. The second and third layers were neatly arranged with several gleaming knives of various shapes.
Dr. Pang was surprised.
He only uses two or three knives for surgery, and the blades are very thick.
But Lu Qingqing's knives, some as thin as paper, some as short as a finger joint, as well as hooks, scissors, and tweezers, all gleamed with a silvery luster and looked incredibly sharp.
These knives are truly rare treasures!
I really want one...
"Dr. Pang, could you please help me decoct the astragalus, atractylodes, and chuanxiong..."
This is for air disinfection and sterilization to prevent disease, which Dr. Pang naturally understood and acted immediately.
Lu Qingqing administered anesthetic to the patient, and he finally fell into a deep sleep.
"Get ready to pull!"
Si Xi waited solemnly, holding the boiled cloth strip in his hand.
Dr. Pang opened his eyes wide and looked over.
As Lu Qingqing pulled out the wooden stick, Sixi quickly stuffed the bloody hole with a wad of cloth.
Blood was still splattered on his face.
"Dr. Pang, wipe our faces."
"well."
Dr. Pang took out a strip of cloth, wrung it out, and used it to wipe Sixi's face. After hesitating for a moment, he then used it to wipe Lu Qingqing's face as well.
He's old enough to be Lu Qingqing's father anyway, so what's the big deal!
"Let the astragalus water cool down and set it aside."
After Lu Qingqing finished speaking, she inserted acupuncture needles into the Zui acupoint and used her thumb and index finger to forcefully pull on the Shuiquan and Pucan acupoints to stop the bleeding.
Dr. Pang prepared the water, his gaze fixed intently on it.
Her needlework technique is indeed at the level of a master; I finally witnessed it today!
After the bleeding stops.
Lu Qingqing began to rinse the wound.
"There are many splinters inside, and we need to find them one by one."
Four tools, number one, number three, and number eight, are to be disinfected and ready for use.
"Hemostatic cotton".
"Clean the wound again."
"disinfect."
...
"Use mulberry white thread to suture."
An hour later, the patient's chest had been stitched up.
Layer upon layer, the stitches are fine and regular, as meticulous as a woman sewing clothes.
Dr. Pang thought of the skin and flesh he had stitched up, which looked like haphazardly twisted tree branches.
Fu Leng happened to return with alcohol in his hands.
Another round of sterilization and disinfection.
Finally, apply the medicine and bandage it.
Dr. Pang was so excited that his soul was trembling.
Compared to Lu Qingqing's technique, his previous suturing skills could only be described as naive and crude, not even qualifying as a beginner!
"So, you've saved him, right?"
Despite asking this question, he was already certain that the person would survive.
Such skillful surgery, even removing a tiny splinter without causing widespread bleeding, shows that the heart meridian was not damaged, so everything should be fine, right?
But Lu Qingqing shook her head: "It's not certain yet. We need to get through the two-day danger period and get through the fever before we can talk about it."
Why is it still heating up?
“Heating is inevitable. There are countless dust and germs in the air. No matter how much disinfection is done, it is impossible to achieve true cleanliness. Therefore, the most dangerous part is what follows.”
Dr. Pang suddenly realized.
He also explained why it was necessary to repeatedly clean the wound, wipe the knife, and steam the herbs.
Previously, he only needed to heat the knife once and then cover it with a layer of herbs.
However, it also frequently leads to ulceration and burning.
I used to think it was because people's bodies had different disease resistance, but now I know that's the reason.
"The medicine being steamed and boiled in this tent must not be stopped these next few days."
Lu Qingqing looked at the small jar of alcohol she had painstakingly purified and sighed helplessly.
At that time, there was no high-proof alcohol available, so she spent a lot of food and time making this.
The emergency pills she was given before were made with precious medicinal herbs.
The cost of surgery is too high.
However, in an emergency, one cannot refuse to help.
In that case, she will only be able to...
They made up for it by spending money on wealthy people.
Si Xi wiped and cleaned each knife, dried it over a fire after cleaning, and then put them back into the box one by one.
Dr. Pang stared at the knives, wanting to go up and take a closer look but too embarrassed to do so.
This is already incredibly shameless of them to have copied so much of what others have learned.
Lu Qingqing's eyebrows twitched, and she asked, "Dr. Pang, where did you learn your surgical and suturing techniques?"
"I learned it by stealing it."
After saying that, Dr. Pang covered his mouth.
Oh my god, it just popped out!
