Doctor Chen had a helpless look on his face. If it was any other injury, it would be fine. However, this kind of bleeding wound was the most difficult to deal with. He could only do his best.
Even on the battlefield, this kind of minor injury would only be treated with a simple bandage. If the injury was too serious, he could only add a knife to help the patient.
Da Niu looked at Doctor Chen's expression and suddenly had a bad premonition from the bottom of his heart.
Why could he faintly feel the same aura from this old doctor as the bald man with the bone-paring knife …
It was as if the bald man would stab him a few times in the next moment.
…
…
"Young master, the medicine box is here."
Xiao Huan ran in with a wooden box panting and handed it to Li Yi.
The servant girl knew what was in the box. Other than some commonly used medicine, there was wine and needles. However, she had never seen the young master use them before.
"Wait!"
Seeing that Doctor Chen was about to pour the unknown powder on Da Niu's wound, Li Yi quickly walked over.
"County Lieutenant …" Doctor Chen turned around and looked at him with a face full of doubt. This man's injury could not be delayed any longer.
Li Yi opened the wooden box and took out the things inside. He said, "Let me deal with the wound."
Doctor Chen looked doubtful. Although this County Magistrate Li knew Lord Liu, even if Lord Liu came here personally, he wouldn't be able to cure this kind of injury. Where did this young magistrate's confidence come from?
"Lord …" Da Niu was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly.
This old doctor looked a little unreliable, but in terms of medical skills, he should be better than the County Lieutenant, right?
"Do you trust me?" Li Yi looked up at Da Niu and asked.
Da Niu and Li Yi looked at each other. It was as if he saw the County Lieutenant who was full of vigor in the court again. Da Niu's heart calmed down a little. He gritted his teeth and said, "I trust you!"
Seeing that the injured person also said so, Doctor Chen did not say anything else.
Even if he dealt with it himself, he only had less than 50% confidence. Since the County Lieutenant was willing to take this risk, he was happy to do it.
"It might hurt a little. Bear with it." Li Yi took out a small bottle of disinfectant. The wound on Da Niu's body needed to be stitched up. In order to prevent the wound from getting infected, he had to disinfect it before stitching it up.
As if he was trying his best to stay awake, Da Niu smiled and said, "I, Da Niu, don't have any other abilities, but I can still endure this pain …"
"Roar …"
Li Yi used a clean cloth that had been boiled and dipped in alcohol to help him clean the area around the wound. The moment he touched the wound, Da Niu screamed.
In later generations, iodophor was commonly used to disinfect because alcohol was too stimulating to the human body. Ordinary people could not tolerate it. That feeling might be even more stimulating than directly sprinkling salt on the wound.
Li Yi glanced at him and continued what he was doing.
If it wasn't for Da Niu's powerful knockout drug, he might not even have the chance to stand here. This time, he had a chance to repay him.
Hiss!
"Ah!"
"Roar …"
…
…
When Li Yi was disinfecting his wound, Da Niu did not look like a seriously injured person at all. He was full of energy and kept screaming. After a while, Li Yi finally stopped what he was doing.
He turned to look at Liu Ruyi and asked, "Is there any way to make him calm down temporarily?"
He was also a person who cared about his reputation. If this guy kept screaming while lying on the ground, people who did not know better would think that he did something to him.
"Yes." Liu Ruyi's answer was very straightforward. She chopped the back of Da Niu's head with her hand, and the world finally became quiet.
Doctor Chen and the two constables who were supporting Da Niu saw this, and their mouths twitched at the same time …
As expected of Miss.Liu, this trick was very effective. Not only did Da Niu stop screaming when he disinfected the wound with alcohol, even when he started to stitch the wound with catgut, Da Niu seemed to be asleep and did not have any reaction.
Except for Li Yi, everyone had a reaction.
Xiao Huan did not know what the needles and thread in the box were used for before, but now she knew.
Seeing her son-in-law stitch the man's wound as if he was sewing clothes, her face was already pale with fear. She covered her eyes and did not dare to watch anymore.
As for the apprentice in the medical center who was not mentally strong enough, he ran to the backyard when Li Yi stitched the first stitch. He leaned against the wall and vomited. The scene just now had a huge impact on him. He would not be able to have any good dreams for the next few nights.
The man who carried Da Niu here, Wu Er, also felt his stomach churn when he saw this. Looking at the county magistrate who continued to stitch the wound calmly, the expression in his eyes immediately changed.
Doctor Chen had been a doctor for decades, and the two constables had seen some big scenes because of their profession. Naturally, they would not be so embarrassed, but their expressions were still not normal.
"County Magistrate, this …"
Doctor Chen, who had never seen such a method, swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He did not dare to stop it, so he spoke with a trembling voice.
Just as he said a few words, Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Be quiet, don't talk, I'll take responsibility if anything happens."
He was fully focused at this moment, and with the help of the library in his mind, he could ensure that his hands would not make any mistakes. Any external interference would have a significant impact on him.
Liu Ruyi stood beside him and watched as the wound was stitched up. She clenched her fists tightly, and her face was slightly pale, but she did not look away.
After the wound was stitched up, Li Yi took out the sterilized gauze from the box and bandaged Da Niu's wound before standing up.
Doctor Chen should know what to do next.
A quarter of an hour had already passed, but there was no more blood flowing out of the stitched wound. Doctor Chen's face revealed a shocked expression. At this moment, he finally understood why the imperial physician, Lord Liu, was so polite to this young county officer …
This was a method of stitching wounds that he had never seen before. If all the doctors in the world could learn it, countless lives would be saved, especially on the battlefield, and countless soldiers would benefit from it …
Doctor Chen did not dare to think about it.
The next moment, his face turned solemn, and he solemnly bowed to Li Yi and said, "May I be so bold as to ask County Magistrate to spread this method to the world. The people of the Jing Kingdom will remember your kindness for generations to come!"
The doctors in this era, regardless of their medical skills, all had noble sentiments. They always thought about the people. Imperial Physician Liu was like that, and now Doctor Chen was also like that.
Li Yi waved his hand. This matter was not urgent. He had to find out how Da Niu got injured first.
This was in Qing 'an Prefectural City, and someone actually dared to attack a constable. In the future, it would be a felony of assaulting a police officer. It was obvious that the person did not respect the county magistrate.
When he raised his hand, he found that it was blood red. He did not have sterile gloves, and he only sterilized it. When he stitched up the wound, there was naturally a lot of blood on it.
When he was concentrating, he did not notice anything. Now that he came back to his senses, he saw that both of his hands were bloody, and a smell of blood hit his face. Li Yi suddenly felt his stomach churning, and his head became dizzy …
"What's wrong with you?"
Liu Ruyi was the first to notice his abnormality. Just as he opened his mouth, he saw Doctor Chen's body shake a few times, and he fell straight back.
