Chapter 96 Special Medicine
When Ying Bao and Chun Niang walked into the courtyard of Patriarch Chen's house, they were shocked by what they saw.
The yard was filled with cigarette smoke, and there were two five or six-year-old children dancing in front of the incense table.
Both of them were wearing five-color ribbons, holding colorful rope whips and safety fans, and copper bells were tied to their wrists and ankles, which made a ringing sound when they jumped.
Is this a witch doctor?
An old woman wearing a feather crown came over and started dancing around Yingbao.
Chun Niang's face darkened, she immediately picked up her daughter and turned to ask Patriarch Chen: "Uncle Chen, what do you mean?"
Chen Fu touched his nose in embarrassment and did not dare to tell the truth. He only said to Song Shenpo: "Yingbao wants to go inside to check on my son's condition. Get out of the way."
Goddess Song understood and immediately turned aside.
Chen Fu said to Chun Niang again: "The goddess is doing the magic. Let's go to the house first."
Seeing the goddess step aside, Chun Niang walked into the house with her daughter in her arms.
There was also a strong smell of incense and a faint rancid smell inside the house.
Chun Niang frowned and put her down at her daughter's signal.
Ying Bao walked to the kang and stood on tiptoes to look at the patient.
Seeing nothing, he asked Chen Fu to bring a chair and stood on the chair to lift the quilt.
A fishy smell hit my face.
This Chen Zhu was not wearing any trousers, only a loincloth.
Chun Niang gave a low cry and was about to hug her daughter and leave.
Ying Bao waved her hand and said to Chun Niang: "It's okay. Doctors do not differentiate between men and women. Mom, please go out first and I will take a look at the patient's injuries."
Since she is studying medicine, she will inevitably have to deal with the human body in the future. She may have to dissect corpses and examine internal organs. If she can't even see a man's body, then her dream of being a miracle doctor will really become a dream.
Chun Niang had no choice but to leave the house and stand guard at the door.
Ying Bao checked the wound on Chen Zhu's leg and saw a lot of black ointment on the wound, so she suggested to Chen Fu on the side to wash off the ointment.
Chen Fu immediately asked his fourth wife to bring hot water to clean his son's injuries.
"Is there any liquor?" Ying Bao asked.
Mrs. Wen said that for traumatic injuries, you need to clean the affected area with strong alcohol to kill the bacteria and then apply medicine to get twice the result with half the effort.
Chen Fu shook his head, "There is no strong alcohol."
He had only heard of strong liquor, but had never seen it.
In a country like theirs, not to mention spirits, even rice grains are not common.
"Then let it cool down with boiling water and then clean it. The cloth must also be boiled and dried." Ying Bao ordered seriously.
Shao didn't respond and immediately did as Ying Bao said.
Ying Bao then checked Chen Zhu's pulse and pulled his eyelids to check his pupils.
Mrs. Wen said that as long as the patient's pupils are dilated, the patient will most likely not survive.
Ying Bao has never seen anyone with dilated pupils, but she finally encountered one today.
This Chen Zhu's pupils are really dilated, and they are indeed different from the normal people's pupils that can expand and contract freely.
Ying Bao took out a pill from the small bag, and considering that Chen Zhu could not swallow solid food, she asked Chen Fu to get a bowl and pour some tea into it.
Crush the pills and melt them into the tea, and let Chen Fu feed his son to drink it.
After a while, Mr. Shao brought hot water to clean her husband's wound, and Yingbao stood on the chair and watched.
The wound on the thigh was hideous, with a hole in it, which looked very scary.
Shaw sobbed while cleaning, her tears dripping into the basin.
Ying Bao really wanted to tell her not to shed her tears.
As soon as he lowered his head, he saw a little boy with narrow phoenix eyes looking up at him, his eyes dark.
He is Xiaoyao, Chen Zhu’s son.
Ying Bao sat down and waved to the little demon.
The little demon hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward.
Ying Bao took out a cooked water chestnut from her bag and handed it to him: "Here you go."
The little demon took it and looked at it, but didn't eat it.
"The wound has been cleaned." Shao said softly.
Ying Bao nodded and asked Shao to get a basin of clean water for later use. She took out a sharp knife from her bag.
This knife was used by her to harvest golden ears, and she used it to cut Chen Zhu's wound today.
Shao's face changed when he saw Ying Bao take out a knife, and then heard the girl say again: "Bring the candle lantern."
Shao did as he was told and brought candles and lanterns.
Yingbao put the lamp aside, urged Shao to prepare hot water, jumped on the kang, and cut Chen Zhu's wound.
Chen Fu's eyes widened when he saw it, but he invited this little fairy boy himself, so he didn't dare to say anything at this time even if he had too many doubts.
Ying Bao pressed the area around the wound, and when she saw Chen Zhu twitching, she quickly ordered Chen Fu: "Grandpa Chen, ask a few people to come in and hold him down, and don't let him move."
Chen Fu quickly went to the door and called for his eldest son and grandson.
The three of them pressed Chen Zhu down, and Shao also brought water and two ironed cloth towels.
Ying Bao washed her hands with water, washed the knife again, and burned it back and forth on the candlelight for a while.
After the knife was cold, Ying Bao squatted beside Chen Zhu's leg and incised his wound a little bit, releasing a stream of smelly pus and blood.
Chen Zhu was woken up by the pain and his legs were moving wildly. Fortunately, Chen Fu and others were holding him down.
Ying Bao endured the discomfort and made two cuts around the wound, releasing more pus and blood.
When you see that the pus and blood are almost flowing out, wipe it with a clean cloth and apply the ointment you brought.
This ointment contains not only Wudingzhi, but also skullcap, honeysuckle, elixir and burnet powder.
These medicinal materials were all bought from the drugstore in the town, just to protect against sudden trauma in the future.
Ever since Yingbao read Shennong's Herbal Classic and the Folk Herbal Classic given by Sister Wen, she planned to prepare more medicinal materials in the cave and prepare various ointments and pills with Wudingzhi in case of emergency needs.
Because there will be no peace in the future, the imperial court will continue to recruit troops to quell rebellions in various places. One day, one of her relatives may be recruited away, so she has to prepare more special wound medicines.
Today is the first time she has prepared this wound medicine, so she just gave it to Chen Zhu to try it to see how it works.
After applying the medicine, Yingbao jumped off the kang, took out a few more pills and handed them to Shao: "Give him two pills every two hours, wrap the wound with a clean cloth, and tie it well so as not to rub the ointment off. I will do it tomorrow." Let’s see again.”
Shao nodded repeatedly.
Yingbao looked at Patriarch Chen: "Grandpa Chen, you have to give me the money for the medicine this time. The consultation fee is not included, but the pills and ointments are very expensive."
Chen Fu was not surprised and asked: "How much is the total?"
"Fifty taels of silver." Ying Bao said.
Chen Fu was stiff, but he went to his room and took out a five-tael silver ingot and handed it to Ying Bao.
Ying Bao picked up the silver and ran out of the house. Chun Niang quickly picked up her daughter and walked out.
What Goddess Song wanted to say was interrupted mercilessly by Chen Fu: "Yingbao has already given Zhu'er the medicine, and she said she would come and have a look tomorrow. Goddess, I'll let Dalang give it to me now. I still have to arrange some things, so I won’t send the goddess off.”
Mother Song rolled her eyes secretly, and without saying anything else, she immediately asked her grandchildren to pack their things and prepare to go home.
snort! Do you really think that little kid is a fairy boy? I just said that on purpose.
Chen Zhu died tomorrow, and with Ying Baoer in charge, no one else could blame her, Goddess Song.
