Chapter 264 Xu Shan with a broken arm
"Xu Shan, how are you?" Zhou Tong and He Li were the first to rush over and helped the person who was thrown in and asked. He saw that this person was Xu Shan who had left Wanyan's tribe with Xi Li Bo. But now he was covered in bruises and no left arm. There was a knife wound on his face from the left eye to the corner of his mouth. He was motionless when he was thrown in, and he didn't know whether it was death or life?
Zhao Yan also hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to touch Xu Shan's pulse and breathing. It was not until he found that he was still alive that Zhao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Then he carefully checked Xu Shan's injuries. It turned out that his broken left arm had been simply bandaged and the blood had stopped long ago, otherwise he would have died of excessive blood loss.
In addition, Xu Shan had more than a dozen wounds of all sizes, most of which were not serious. They have scabbed now, but there was an arrow wound that penetrated the chest. I don’t know if it hurt the lungs. Moreover, the arrow wound was not properly treated, and the weather was hot, so maggots were already on the wound. Yelu Si immediately ran aside and vomited.
After all, Zhao Yan was a doctor. After all, he saw that the maggots on the wound did not even frown. Instead, he picked up a knife to eliminate the poison on the fire, then cut off the bad meat on the wound bit by bit, cleaned the wound, and then sprinkled with wood ash like the wound he had dealt with before, bandaged it.
"Prince, can Xu Shan survive?" Zhou Tong and He Li asked with great concern. The three of them had been together in the jungle for many days and had already formed brothers who shared life and death. Now that they saw Xu Shan's injuries so much, they were naturally anxious.
Zhao Yan touched Xu Shan’s forehead and found that his body temperature was high. Moreover, the wound on the broken arm was also a little red and swollen, which made Zhao Yan immediately feel sank in his heart: "Xu Shan’s wound is a little infected, which triggers a high fever. Now we don’t have medicine in our hands, so I don’t know if he can handle it?"
When Zhou Tong and He Li heard Zhao Yan's words, they also showed sadness. Then they looked fiercely at the Jurchens surrounding their tents. Finally, Zhou Tong suddenly whispered: "Prince, why not enter Wanyan's army tonight and try to create chaos. Then you and Deputy Envoy Su will escape in the chaos. Maybe there is still a glimmer of life!"
Zhou Tong's words were immediately approved by He Li, and both of them looked determined. Although they were both skilled in martial arts, especially Zhou Tong, who was brave enough to be unstoppable, if they fought desperately, they could definitely turn the Wanyan tribe upside down, but in this way, their lives could only be left here. After all, Zhou Tong and He Li are also human beings, and the Jurchens are even more famous for their fierceness. The Wanyan tribe is a big tribe. With their courage, although they can cause trouble in the Wanyan tribe, they will inevitably die in the end.
"No. It's too risky to do this, and from all the signs and expressions, Isao Libo still hopes to form an alliance with our Song Dynasty. So you must not fight hard until the last step!" Zhao Yan knew that Zhou Tong and the others had ambition to die, but he refused without thinking. First of all, he didn't want to sacrifice the people around him because of himself, and he also felt that Isao Libo should make the right choice.
"I also think that Xilibo will choose to form an alliance with us in the end. First, he is a very ambitious person. He will never give up such a good opportunity to rise. Second, although Xu Shan was seriously injured, he was still brought back by Xilibo alive, which means that the other party was not willing to break up completely with us. Otherwise, Xushan would have been thrown into the mountains to feed wild animals by them." At this time, Su Shi also whispered. After this period of experience, he became much more calm and his views on things became more detailed and thorough.
Zhou Tong and He Li saw that Zhao Yan and Su Shi were not agreeing, and their approach was indeed too risky, so they had to give up. Next, under Zhao Yan's command, the two of them carried Xu Shan into the tent, but Xu Shan was in a coma from beginning to end, which made Zhao Yan very anxious. They wanted to invite Gu Tianjie to take a look, but the Jurchens who were surrounding them refused to let go, and because they could not speak with each other, Zhao Yan could not communicate with each other at all.
Fortunately, after a while, the impeacher came here again. Zhao Yan asked Yelu Si to be the translator and mentioned his request to invite Gu Tianjie to come. Although the impeacher was very dissatisfied with Zhao Yan and his previous deceptions, he also knew that his second brother, Iowa Bo, wanted to get help from the Song Dynasty, otherwise he would not have brought Xu Shan back. So in the end he nodded and sent someone to send Gu Tianjie and his father and daughter over.
Gu Tianjie's health was poor before. In addition to being sick, the main reason was that there was insufficient food, which led to the inability to keep up with the nutrition of his body. During this period, Zhao Yan often gave Bones some food, which was enough for their father and daughter to eat. Therefore, Gu Tianjie's complexion improved a lot during this period, but his body was still very weak, and he had to be helped up by the bones when taking the pulse.
Zhao Yan first introduced his previous examination to Gu Tianjie, and then asked the other party to take his pulse. As a result, Gu Tianjie's finger fell on Xu Shan's wrist, he immediately frowned. After a long time, he took his hand and said, "Prince Prince, your guard is seriously injured. His broken arm and injury have caused him to lose too much blood. Fortunately, he is a martial arts practitioner, and his qi and blood are far stronger than ordinary people, so he barely saved his life. However, his wound is red, swollen, and his body is also full of high fever. This is also the situation that the injured person is most afraid of. It can be said that his health is very bad now. As for whether he can survive, I have no confidence. I can only rely on him to bear it."
Although Zhao Yan was prepared in his heart, he still felt a slump in his heart after hearing Gu Tianjie's words. At the same time, he secretly hated why he didn't carry those cephalosporins on his body when he came out, so that he might save Xu Shan's life. As for Su Shi, Zhou Tong and others, they all had depressed expressions when they heard Gu Tianjie's words.
"Mr. Gu, please prescribe some medicine for Xu Shan. As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, we will not give up!" Zhao Yan said with a heavy face at the last.
Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Gu Tianjie couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Although I have several prescriptions here, I need a lot of medicines. There is no such thing as Wanyan's tribe, so it's useless to prescribe it. However, if you have any ginseng for the prince, you can make some soup for him to drink, which may have a certain effect."
The Wanyan tribe originally produced ginseng. Su Shi had prepared some for Zhao Yan before, in order to avoid the fact that Zhao Yan and Yelu Si could not bear it. Those people ate some ginseng, but there were still a lot of them left. Now that he heard Gu Tianjie's words, he immediately asked Yelu Si to take out the ginseng and then make soup for Xu Shan.
Ginseng was originally a great tonic. In ancient times, it was generally used by wealthy families to silence their lives. It is said that a dying person had a piece of ginseng in his mouth, which could make him finish his will. In traditional Chinese medicine, ginseng was the first medicine to replenish qi and blood. Xu Shan had lost too much blood. Although the effect of replenishing qi and blood at this time was not great, it was better than doing nothing.
The ginseng soup was boiled quickly, and Zhou Tong and He Li fed Xu Shan together. Although Xu Shan was in a coma, he still knew how to swallow, which made Zhao Yan and Gu Tianjie breathe a sigh of relief. As long as the injured person could still eat, there would be hope for healing. Otherwise, if the patient did not enter the water and rice, it would not be possible for ordinary doctors to treat it.
Perhaps it was because the ginseng soup really worked. In the middle of the night, Xu Shan actually woke up once, which made Zhou Tong, who was guarding him, very excited. He immediately informed Zhao Yan. Unfortunately, when Zhao Yan arrived, Xu Shan fell into a coma again. It was not until the next morning that he woke up again. Although his spirit was still very listless this time, he could already speak.
Zhao Yan didn't have a good rest that night. When he arrived at the tent where Xushan was in the morning, he saw that he was half lying there and was feeding him with meat soup. When he saw Zhao Yan coming in, Xu Shan, who was pale, wanted to sit up, but was snatched up by Zhao Yan and said, "You are weak now, so you don't have to perform those common etiquettes!"
"Thank you... Thank you, Prince!" Xu Shan said weakly, "It was just that his subordinates were ashamed of the prince's instructions. Without having time to join the people from the Imperial City Division, they were beaten and scratched by the people from the Imperial City Division."
Seeing Xu Shan still remembering the task he assigned to him at this time, Zhao Yan was quite moved. He immediately comforted him: "It's not your fault for this matter, but I'm just because I was too careless. I didn't expect that Posaishu was still alive. This not only made you almost die, but also put us in such a dangerous situation now."
"The prince should not take the blame on himself. After all, none of us expected that Posaishu was still alive. Even the people of the Silibo thought he was dead, so this matter could only be considered an accident!" Su Shi, who had just come in, spoke out and persuaded.
"Yes, when Xilibo and others saw Potashu, they were also very shocked. They couldn't believe that he was still alive. The prince had to rely on Wanyan's tribe to obtain information during this period, so they couldn't blame the prince at all!" Xu Shan also advised.
"Oh, I won't talk about this anymore." Zhao Yan waved his hand, then turned his head and asked Xu Shan, "Xu Shan, how did you meet Potatoshu? And how did your arm break?"
When Zhao Yan asked about his experience, Xu Shan sighed and told him about his experience. Everything went very smoothly before rushing to the market specially set up for the Jurchens in the Liao Kingdom, but unexpectedly, he met Posaishu in the market. Xu Shan knew that it was not good at that time and wanted to escape while others were not paying attention, but unfortunately it was too late at that time. (To be continued) r655
