Chapter 194 - 194 Scraping the Flesh
Jian Qingqing’s face turned pale. She nodded and said, “I saw it clearly.”
Actually, digging up rotten meat was not something that could be done with just a few strokes. It emphasized the combination of techniques and techniques. The more complicated the wound, the more difficult it was.
“Alright, take a good look at it. If there’s anything you don’t understand, ask me again.”
After saying that, he continued to treat the next wound. This wound was very similar to the previous one. They both passed through the scapula and were very close to the large blood vessels. Wei Wusheng cleanly removed all the rotten flesh. Because of his experience, it was a little faster than the previous one.
Although it looked like he was doing it very easily, everyone present was paying attention to his actions. The courtyard was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.
Very soon, Wei Wusheng finished treating this wound. He sprinkled the medicine powder on it to stop the bleeding. These two largest wounds were considered completed, and the next two wounds were simpler. Wei Wusheng scraped two more wounds, he left the rest to Doctor Xu to handle.
Doctor Xu waved his hand in surprise. “It won’t do. I was the one who handled the previous one, but it wasn’t clean. The more rotten meat grew, the bigger the wound became.”
Wei Wusheng forced the knife into his hand and frowned. “What nonsense! I’ll watch you do it from the side. If you still don’t know how to do it, then you’re really as stupid as a pig.”
Other than Jian Qingqing, Wei Wusheng had always been outspoken and did not know what politeness was.
However, Doctor Xu did not get angry at all when he heard that. Instead, he felt relieved as if he had been reassured. He held the knife tightly in his hand and took a deep breath. Then, he steadily reached out the knife and cut the patient’s wound.
This wound was a burn wound. At that time, the whole piece of meat here was already burnt. Doctor Xu only removed the burnt flesh, but later on, the side of the wound also festered. Now, the entire wound had another layer of rot.
He scratched the outermost part of the wound lightly. When he remembered that Wei Wusheng had dug the wound to the meat, he also plucked up the courage to dig down.
After the blood seeped out, he heaved a sigh of relief and was about to move to the next wound when Wei Wusheng shouted coldly, “It’s not clean yet, continue!”
Doctor Xu was shocked. Seeing that the hole in the wound was already filled with blood, he hesitated for a moment and said, “That should be enough. If you continue to scrape, there won’t be any flesh left.”
Wei Wusheng said coldly, “Why are you so distressed? Even if you don’t scrape the wound now, you’ll still have to scrape it no matter how infected it is. At that time, it wouldn’t be as simple as just scraping.”
Hearing that, Doctor Xu still sucked the blood in the wound clean with gauze and continued to scrape inside. After he scraped it out, he realized that the piece of meat was indeed not good meat and there were signs of erosion.
He heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he listened to Wei Wusheng’s words, or else this wound would have been scraped for nothing.
After removing all the flesh and applying hemostatic powder, this wound was considered cleaned.
Jian Qingqing watched as she took out the towel that had been soaked in salt water and wrung it dry. She gently wiped the blood stains and rotten pieces of meat off Li Baode’s body.
When it was all done, it was already four hours later. The sky was already darkening. At this time, there was not a single piece of good meat on Li Baode’s body. All of it had been dug into potholes and scattered with white powder.
Granny Lin looked at him with tears in her eyes. She wanted to cry but did not dare to, afraid that she would disturb others.
Wei Wusheng took his pulse and heaved a sigh of relief. His pulse was still stable. It seemed that he was safe today. He checked his wound and found that all the rotten meat had been shaved clean. Next, he would see if he would worsen again.
