Cao Zhi and others were shocked, and Wang Er's numb hand naturally touched the weapon. Zhou Cang quickly introduced that this person's name was Deng Ai, who was the chief secretary and counselor of Governor Chen.
It turned out that he was one of his own. Cao Zhi, who relaxed his guard, looked at the man and saw that he was in his thirties and had a gentle face. He had been sitting in the corner of the room. It was not until he stood up that Cao Zhi and others noticed him.
Cao Zhi nodded slightly as a greeting, then lowered his head and was busy checking Xu Chu's injuries.
Deng Ai didn't care and came over.
Cao Zhi first checked Xu Chu's breathing, and then felt Xu Chu's pulse. There were still signs of life, but a little weak. Cao Zhi knew that Xu Chu's injury could not wait, and the wound must be treated as soon as possible.
Cao Zhi tried to fiddle with the arrow shaft in the wound, and then he touched it. Xu Chu, who was lying down, immediately groaned. The arrow penetrated deeply into the flesh, but it did not penetrate the body, so he did not know where it was shot.
, the arrow is not close to the blood vessels or lungs, or it has hit these things. Judging from the blood flowing out, there should be no poison on the arrow.
Hua Tuo is not around, and there is nowhere to look for the doctor in the middle of the night. Even if he does, he may be in trouble. Now the entire Danyang City must have been under "martial law" in the whole city, and we are really trying our best to hunt them down. Now go find the doctor, it is certain
Will be targeted.
But now in this room, Zhou Cang and Wang Erma have only dealt with injuries on the skin and limbs. They are bold, but they are just reckless. Deng Aigang has just met him, but he doesn't know much about them. I guess this kind of strategist didn't faint when he saw the blood, which is considered a good one.
So brave.
If you are reckless now, you will definitely not be able to pull out by force. Firstly, pulling out by force will definitely hurt Xu Chu to death. Secondly, most of the ancient feather arrowheads are made into a pointed triangular blade shape. When they are inserted into the flesh and pulled out, a large amount of flesh and blood will be brought out, and the wound will appear.
The internal condition is unknown, and if the blood vessels or lungs are accidentally touched during removal, it will be in trouble.
Among this group of people, Cao Zhi was the only one who had learned first aid, which was a required course for the police. Although he had not practiced it much, Xu Chu's arrow injury should not be a very complicated major surgery. In order to save people, Cao Zhi had to do it reluctantly.
Try it yourself.
Cao Zhi remembered that Li Shi had only heard that Hua Tuo once wanted to decapitate Cao Cao with a knife, but Cao Cao was frightened to death, and finally Hua Tuo was killed. Of course, this is a later story, Cao Zhi is here, he is not
Hua Tuo would have died so unjustly.
Hua Tuo's Ma Fei Powder can make people unconscious. Let Xu Chu take some, then cut open the wound and take out the arrow. It should be OK. Cao Zhi still has some Ma Fei Powder on his body, so now he can only take a gamble.
When Cao Zhi asked for what he needed, everyone was shocked.
Cao Zhi asked Zhou Cang: "Do you have any refined knives, thin and sharp ones, or scissors?"
Zhou Cang said, "Yes," and ran out. After a while, he ran back and handed Cao Zhi a sharp-edged butcher's knife and a pair of long scissors like those used by tailors.
Cao Zhi said: "This is a thin and sharp knife! Are there any shorter or smaller knives and scissors?"
Zhou Cang looked at Cao Zhi blankly and replied that there was nothing shorter or smaller. From his helpless eyes, he seemed to be saying, "Isn't this what you want?"
Cao Zhi tried it on Xu Chu's clothes, and it turned out to be sharp. In ancient times, we couldn't rely on blades or anything like that, so he just used them reluctantly. The scissors could definitely cut things, but they definitely couldn't cut people.
"I want some more strong liquor, the stronger the better, small pliers, cotton balls, white cloth, um... get some ponytails." Cao Zhi thought while telling what he needed.
The rest is easy to say, but why is this horsetail here? I have never heard that horsetail is needed to treat arrow wounds. After several people looked at each other for a while, Deng Ai winked at Zhou Cang, and Zhou Cang immediately went there obediently.
.
While Zhou Cang was waiting for things to be prepared, Cao Zhi asked Wang Erma to hold Xu Chu, who was lying on his side, and cut a big slit in Xu Chu's injured area. When he was about to cut off the arrow shaft that exposed his body, he was afraid that Wang Erma would not be able to hold Xu Chu steady.
, and said with concern, "Hold it steady, I'm going to cut it!"
Deng Ai immediately reached out to help. He could see clearly that Cao Zhi was afraid that the arrow would disturb the wound.
Cao Zhi saw that they were resisting Xu Chu, so he put the scissors close to the arrow shaft outside his body, exerted force, and with a "click" sound, the arrow shaft broke.
Cao Zhi took the cloth-cutting scissors and looked at them, and thought to himself: "This is really fast!" Just after cutting the arrow shafts, Zhou Cang came in with two barrels of spirits, followed by a shopkeeper.
Cao Zhi recognized this person at first glance. Isn't he the old shopkeeper of Xiangji Silk and Satin Store? The old shopkeeper was still holding a bag of things in his hand. When he saw Cao Zhi, he called out "Mr. Cao".
Cao Zhi hummed, lowered his head and continued to treat Xu Chu's wounds when he suddenly remembered something. He looked up at the old shopkeeper and thought, "Could the manor we are in now be Xiangji Silk Manor?" He confirmed to Zhou Cang that it was true.
In this way, Cao Zhi couldn't help but admire the ingenious location selection of the manor and Zhou Cang's familiarity with the roads of Danyang City. As expected of Chen Wen, he was wily and scheming. He probably had planned this Danyang City for a long time!
After only a moment of trance, Cao Zhi knew what was happening in front of him to help Xu Chu pull out the arrow. Watching the old shopkeeper and Zhou Cang display the things Cao Zhi needed one by one, Cao Zhi explained how to deal with these things.
When talking about the ponytail method, Cao Zhi thought about the sewing problem and asked: "Which of you can sew clothes?" After talking to the group of grown men, you look at me and I look at you, who can! Fortunately, the shopkeeper
He immediately said that his wife would do it, and Cao Zhi quickly asked him to invite his wife.
Liquor was used as well water and poured on a bed.
Several people worked together to lift Xu Chu onto the bed. Cao Zhi also knew that disinfection was necessary, and spirits were probably the best substitute for disinfectant.
Knives, scissors, and small pliers (which can also be called small pliers) are first grilled over a pot of fire, then rolled into balls with pure cotton and white cloth, and soaked in spirits.
Xu Chu was given another bowl of strong wine and drank it along with Ma Fei powder. Maybe Xu Chu was thirsty and drank it all without pinching his nose.
Everything was ready, and all he needed to do was take action, but Cao Zhi was sweating profusely and felt uneasy. In ancient times, people had killed several people, but this was still the first time to save people, and it was still a surgical project, so it was inevitable that he felt a little worried.
panic.
These people are really smart! Four people surrounded the bloody Xu Chu, and Cao Zhi dared to ask for a copy of the knife, which was even more smart! Cao Zhi kept thinking silently in his heart, "Just treat him like a pig, don't treat him like a pig."
Man, be steady! Be steady! After all, I come from modern times. I know some common sense, so I should be somewhat confident! At least I know the structure of the human body. Even if I kill Xu Chu with my own hands, I can only mistreat him.
The Palace of the King of Hell can only brag to the King of Hell, saying that he was killed by a modern policeman."
Cao Zhi calmed down and slashed a few times, first carefully, without daring to use too much force. Xu Chu trembled slightly, but did not wake up and struggle. The butcher's knife was indeed sharp, Cao Zhi pushed aside some pieces of meat horizontally, and then dug down about an inch deep.
, finally saw the iron arrow, but fortunately it did not hit any major blood vessels. How to remove it is the key. Use a pair of horse shoe pliers to move towards the injured area, and compare, but you can't reach it. Use scissors.
Afraid of piercing the wrong place, Cao Zhi simply stretched out his fingers soaked in strong alcohol to explore the open wound.
After groping for a long time, he felt so sticky that he even broke out in cold sweat. He had killed a lot of people, but he still felt nauseous when he touched the flesh and blood of a real person. Finally, he felt it, and he carefully groped around the arrow.
Make a circle, and it feels like there should be no blood vessels or anything else. Hold the arrow with two fingers, take a breath, close your eyes and exert force, there will be a "popping" sound, and a stream of blood will shoot out. Cao Zhi used a piece of white cloth
He quickly covered it up and threw the pulled out arrowhead into a copper basin filled with water brought by the old shopkeeper with his other hand.
Half the success was achieved, and the next step was to sew it up. When Cao Zhi and others thought about the shopkeeper's wife, they discovered to their dismay that at some point, the woman had fainted.
Cao Zhi had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, cleaning the wound carefully with spirits and sewing it up densely with horsetail thread.
Cao Zhi doesn't know the suturing and knotting skills of doctors, let alone needlework, and he can't pull out the thread by just picking up the thread. In his memory, catgut is a commonly used suture in hospital operations, and
It can be degraded by the human body and does not need to be pulled out. Now I don’t have catgut, but I can’t just use some ordinary cotton thread, so I have to try to make a horsetail thread. Cao Zhi remembers watching a discovery channel in modern times
A documentary about the 16th or 17th century, during European wars, military doctors used horsetail sutures to seal wounds, which was very effective in preventing wound inflammation. Inflammation is very important for the subsequent recovery. In ancient times, many people suffered from
The wound became inflamed and led to death. In the medical community at that time, it was a common misconception that after the wound became scarred, thick water should flow out before full recovery. Cao Zhi even heard that soldiers should think that their lives would not be long if the wound did not drain.
foolish things.
Cao Zhi was not a stupid soldier in ancient times. He asked the shopkeeper to wash the ponytails cleanly, soak them all in wine, and then use a brazier to dry them into dry and tight threads. After a while, Cao Zhi cut Xu Chu's right shoulder blade
It looks like a big patch. He doesn't know how to do female work. It's pretty good to be able to sew it like this.
I also thought about using a soldering iron, which I saw from the movie 300, but now I asked Cao Zhi to use it on Xu Chu's body, and put the red-hot soldering iron on it.
The wound scabbed quickly, but the skin was scorched and the flesh was rotten. Cao Zhiyu couldn't stand it, and he definitely wouldn't be able to do it.
After careful stitching, the stitches were finally done. At this point, Cao Zhi was done. The next step was Zhou Cang and the others. They used good gold wound medicine to paste a thick layer on the wound.
layer, and then wrap it with white cloth.
After Zhou Cang and others finished their work, they looked back and saw that Cao Zhi had completely collapsed on the ground. This was the first operation in his life. After the operation, his nerves were tight and his body was tired.
He collapsed. Cao Zhi had already tried his best, and the next step was to see what Xu Chu would do. Cao Zhi was so tired that after a while he fell asleep on the spot and went to play chess with Duke Zhou.
----------------ps: (Today we have a class reunion. I haven’t seen each other for more than ten years. We ate, sang, and made noise until midnight. When I lay down, I could hear the sounds of ghosts, howls, and singing in my ears. It lasted for a long time.
Can’t let it go, I’ve spent a lot of time coding, so hurry up now).
