ancient female doctor

Chapter 81
After another half a month, God still refuses to reward a single drop of rain. It is said that there are wars in many places, and even Prince Ning has issued a conscription order.

But this conscription order has nothing to do with Qingzhu's family, Qingzhu is not worried at all.

Because the scope of King Ning's conscription is men over 15 years old and under 40 years old.Conscription is compulsory in nature. If two or more members of the family meet the conditions for conscription, one must be forcibly recruited into the army.

However, many people don't need to force them at all, so they ran to apply for the draft by themselves, because the Prince Ning's Mansion would give ten taels of silver as a settling allowance to all soldiers who enlisted in the army. If it is, you can buy six or seven dans. With these rice grains, poor families don't have to worry about their family members starving to death.

As for what happened after serving as a soldier, they weren't worried at all.Anyway, I heard from the older generation that the imperial court did the same thing in the past. Whenever there was a disaster, the young and strong were incorporated into the army. First, it was to prevent troubles, and second, it also meant to keep the common people alive.

The common people also have opinions on why King Ning conscripted troops and not the imperial court.It was said that the imperial court was in chaos and could no longer take care of the common people. Lord Ning was kind, and in order to give the common people a way to survive, he followed the convention.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Qingzhu.At first, there were only two people in Qingzhu's family, Qingshan was only a little over 12 years old, and less than 13 years old, even if he went to apply for the job on his own, they would not accept him.As for herself, she hadn't heard of Da Ruichao recruiting female soldiers anyway, so she was naturally safe.

As for the money given by conscription, Qingzhu really doesn't lack such a little bit.Among other things, the food she saved has been enough for her and Qingshan to eat for three to five years.As for money, she has also saved a lot, as long as she doesn't spend too much money, it will be enough for her life's expenses anyway.

So even if the news of the conscription came out, Qingzhu only heard about it once, and didn't inquire any more, but went about doing her own thing.

When someone came to see a doctor, she would go on. When she met someone who asked her to see a doctor, if she was not familiar with someone, she would call Xiaobai back with a whistle and let Xiaobai accompany her.If you have nothing to do in normal times, you can go to the mountains to collect herbs. With Xiaobai, you don't have to be afraid to go deep into the mountains.You know, when Xiaobai was not yet an adult, he had killed a big bear by himself, and that record was really tough.

That day, Qing Zhu was sitting in a cool place cutting medicine, when suddenly he heard the courtyard door knocking twice, as if something was knocking on the door.

Because it was broad daylight, Qingzhu was not afraid, put down the knife for cutting medicine, and went directly to open the door.

Outside the courtyard gate, Xiaobai was covered in blood, his white hair was stained red with blood, and he fell on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

"Xiaobai! What's the matter with you?" Qingzhu almost jumped on him, shouting in panic, tears fell down in a flash.

Xiaobai has never been seriously injured, and when he was injured the most, it was just a piece of skin torn off his leg.Qingzhu once thought that even if Xiaobai was not the strongest in Daqingshan, he could at least be in the forefront and would not easily encounter any danger, so he kept letting Xiaobai toss around in Daqingshan.

At least I didn't expect that Xiaobai was fine when he went out in the morning, but now he is dead.

Fortunately, although Qingzhu was in unbearable grief, she still knew what she should do.

She squatted down and hugged Xiao Bai in her arms, not caring whether her clean clothes would be stained red with blood.Qingzhu put Xiaobai on its own bed, since Ah Mo left, Xiaobai occupied Ah Mo's bed, and refused to sleep in his own nest again.After a few years, they all acquiesced that the bed belonged to Xiaobai.

After putting Xiaobai down, Qingzhu went to the pharmacy to get the hemostatic powder she had prepared, and gently brushed away the hair on Xiaobai's body to expose the wound. Only then did she realize that Xiaobai's wounds seemed to be from gunshot wounds, not from the same wild beast. caused by fighting.But right now is not the time to pursue this, we should focus on treating Xiaobai.

Qingzhu took the porcelain bottle, and sprinkled the precious hemostatic powder inside on Xiaobai's wound at no cost, and soon stopped most of Xiaobai's wound from bleeding.

It's just that the blood hole in his chest can't be blocked no matter how much medicine powder is poured.The wound on Xiaobai's chest looked like an arrow wound, but the arrow seemed to have been forcibly pulled out, causing secondary injuries around the wound, which looked miserable.

"What to do, what to do..." Seeing that Xiaobai couldn't stop bleeding, Qing Zhu walked around the room anxiously.

After turning around a few times, Qingzhu clenched his fist with his right hand, and hit the palm of his left hand fiercely, biting and saying "Fight".

After speaking, Qingzhu went to find spirits, oil lamps, scissors, needles, threads, pliers, salt, cool chrysanthemum tea, clean cotton cloth and so on.

Although Qingzhu is good at Chinese medicine, she also studied Western medicine when she was in medical school.At least in the anatomy class, she was good at suturing, this time she was going to help Xiaobai suture the wound directly.

The needle is clamped with pliers, put on the oil lamp to burn red, and then bent.The spirits were lit in a bowl, and a clean plate was held over the flames for a while.

The bent needles, scissors, and pliers were re-baked on the fire and placed on a plate.

Wash the cotton thread and soak it in chrysanthemum tea with salt.

The reason why salt water is used instead of spirits is because the current so-called spirits are only more than 40 degrees, which cannot achieve the disinfection effect at all, but will be counterproductive.It is better to soak in high-concentration salt water. Although the effect is not as good as real disinfection, the sterilization effect is still good.In addition, the wild chrysanthemum is also heat-clearing and detoxifying, and the two-pronged approach is better than nothing.

"Xiaobai, it may hurt, you have to bear with it." Qingzhu said, fed a pill into Xiaobai's mouth, and then cut off all the hair around the wound on Xiaobai's chest.

Then take another pair of clean scissors to gently cut Xiaobai's wound open, exposing the deep wound.This is wound expansion. Because of the arrow being pulled out, Xiaobai's wound was not broken neatly, even if he tried to suture it, he could not achieve the expected effect. It is better to expand the wound and then cut the wound evenly.In this way, although the wound looks enlarged, it is actually more conducive to healing after it is stitched.

Blot the blood from the wound with a clean tampon, and cut the wound wall smooth with scissors. Qing Zhu picked up the pliers to clamp the needle, and then clamped the soaked cotton thread with a sterilized bamboo piece and passed it through the needle.

Qingzhu's hands trembled a little, although he had sewed up a rabbit in anatomy class, but the rabbit was dead after all and could not move.

Fortunately, Xiaobai is now in a coma, and he has taken painkillers, so I hope he won't struggle too much.

"Xiaobai, don't move. After I sew up the wound for you, you will be fine." Even though she didn't know if Xiaobai could hear her, Qingzhu still moved together before the stitching started. It reached Xiaobai's ear and whispered something to it.

Because the stitches are not removed, except for the outermost layer of skin, every layer of muscle and subcutaneous tissue inside Green Bamboo is sutured continuously.The outermost layer of skin was originally intended to be sutured continuously, but due to incomplete disinfection and the absence of antibiotics, the skin was sutured intermittently to prevent infection.

After the last stitch was tied, Xiaobai's body trembled slightly, and he let out a low moan, as if crying for pain.

Qing Zhu's heart felt a sharp pain, and tears filled her eyes again.Because even in a coma, Xiao Bai listened to her words, and didn't make a sound until she finished suturing.

"Xiaobai, just wait, I won't let anything happen to you." Although it has been stitched, Qingzhu still dare not neglect, because from now on, replenishing blood and preventing infection will be the top priority.

Qingzhu took a deep look at Xiaobai, took the money and went to the village to buy chickens.

Qingzhuhua bought ten chickens at a high price and came back. The big baskets were covered on the ground, and she only grabbed one in her hand. She took out a bowl and a knife, and then raised the knife and dropped it. He drank half a bowl of steaming chicken blood.

The bowl is clean, and no salt is added to the bowl of chicken blood as usual, so the half bowl of chicken blood will not freeze until it becomes cold.

After Qingzhu killed the chicken, without any delay, she took the spoon and went to Xiaobai's side with the bowl, scooped up a spoonful of blood, handed it to Xiaobai's mouth, squatted beside the bed and said softly: "Xiaobai, Come and drink a little, and you will have the strength to heal your wounds after drinking it."

Qingzhu yelled for a long time, until her blood was almost cold, and her hands were almost numb.Just when she thought that Xiaobai was still in a coma and couldn't eat, and was considering whether to find a way to feed it down, Xiaobai's mouth opened and his tongue moved, licking the chicken blood around his mouth. .

Seeing this, Qingzhu quickly scooped up another spoonful of chicken blood and fed it to Xiaobai.

Half a bowl of chicken blood was quickly fed, Qingzhu quickly killed another chicken, and fed it to Xiaobai again.In the end, Qing Zhu put down the bowl in his hand after feeding the blood of the five chickens, and shook his numb and sore hand.

But it's not over yet, she still has to boil medicine for Xiaobai.

Although taking medicine sounds unthinkable to a wolf, but Qingzhu believes that Xiaobai will not let him down.

Sure enough, after Qingzhu decocted the medicine, Xiaobai drank the medicine smoothly, which made Qingzhu heave a sigh of relief. If there were no accidents, Xiaobai's life was saved.

A series of gurgling sounds came from the relaxed Qingzhu's stomach, and then he remembered that it was very late, and he didn't even eat lunch.

"Forget it, let's cook first, I don't know why Qingshan hasn't come back yet." Qingzhu looked at the sky, touched his hungry and deflated stomach, and was about to cook.

As for the matter of scalding and plucking the chickens that she had killed in the yard, Qing Zhu decided to wait until she had finished eating and regained her strength.

Before Qingzhu could reach the kitchen, there was an eager knock on the courtyard door.

"Did Qingshan come back? Why is it so late today?" Qingzhu asked, walking over to open the door.

"Qingshan... Hey, Second Uncle, why is it you? What's the matter?" Qingzhu opened the door and asked Xia Zhengyuan who was standing at the door with an anxious expression on his face.

"The green bamboo is not good, the green shirt is on the conscription booklet!"
