Chapter 395 The Hunter's Little Darling 56
Or perhaps they knew Xie Qingyu's eyesight was poor, so no one came to discuss it with her. Just as her cousin was about to close the door, she heard a noise coming from afar, and the lit torches grew closer and closer.
By the time Xie Qingyu reached the door, she could clearly see the group of people. The person walking at the front was Tu Shen. He looked normal, but he was carrying someone on his back.
Seeing Xie Qingyu and her cousin standing at the door, Tu Shen quickened his pace noticeably. "He's injured."
The person on his back was extremely pale, with his hands resting motionless in front of him, clearly unconscious.
Tu Shen's courtyard was the closest one they passed on their way down the mountain, so Tu Shen carried the person directly to his home.
Seeing Tu Shen arrive with his men, Xie Qingyu quickly went into the courtyard and opened the door so that Tu Shen could carry the people back.
Someone has already gone to notify this person's family.
Xie Qingyu recognized the person slightly. There were only so many people on the mountain, and she had seen most of them before. She vaguely remembered that he was a very lively person, but now he was lying on the bed, half-dead.
He had a wound on his abdomen, and blood was already flowing out. The cloth wrapped around his waist was obviously used to treat the wound, but it was not very effective.
"I'll go and prepare the medicine." Tu Shen put the person down and left.
They had brought the necessary herbs with them when they came down the mountain. Tu Shen skillfully pounded the herbs and prepared to apply them to him. He then asked his cousin to quickly brew the other two herbs and find a way to force-feed them to him later.
When Tu Shen was undressing Xie Qingyu to treat her wounds, he did not let Xie Qingyu leave.
The others noticed but didn't say anything.
A man's upper body isn't afraid of being seen.
When the cloth was removed, the wounds on his body looked terrifying; the skin and flesh were torn open, and blood was flowing non-stop. It was clearly no longer a simple superficial injury.
Tu Shen's herbs seemed somewhat ineffective at this time.
"I asked my sister to boil some water. You can use the hot water to clean his wound first, and then apply the medicine," Xie Qingyu said.
In this situation, we can't even see where the main bleeding is, let alone apply any medication.
Just then, the man's family arrived; it should be his wife, his mother, and two children.
His wife came in and saw the situation; tears immediately streamed down her face, and she was about to rush over to him.
Her mother froze on the spot, shouting "My son!" and was about to step forward.
The two children were startled by the commotion their mother and grandmother made and immediately burst into tears, causing the scene to spiral out of control.
My cousin couldn't even get in with the water.
"Stop crying, or we won't be able to save him!" Xie Qingyu shouted, and the room fell silent for a moment.
While they were still in a daze, Xie Qingyu let her cousin in. The steaming water looked so hot that it made one's heart tremble.
"You're here just in time. Wash your hands and this cloth with hot water, then use this cloth to wipe the blood off his wound. Be quick, or he won't be able to be saved if he bleeds out." Xie Qingyu's words sounded somewhat cold.
But it was precisely this indifference that immediately stunned people.
His wife still had tears on her face, but she still followed Xie Qingyu's instructions, washed her hands with the still-steaming water, and then wiped them with a wet cloth.
The water that has been boiled isn't as hot when it's brought over, but people in the mountains are used to hard work, so they can tolerate the water temperature.
The wound was so deep that it felt like you could see your intestines being torn out.
She was terrified, but she dared not stop, fearing that if she was even a step too late, it would be too late.
She forced herself to finish and turned around, wanting to look at Xie Qingyu and ask if this was how it was done, but when she turned around, Xie Qingyu was no longer in the room.
She felt a sudden panic, while Xie Qingyu was already considering the possibility of stitching up the wound.
She is not a professional doctor, although she has relevant experience, but not here.
But since it was a matter of life and death, she couldn't just ignore it.
On the mountain, the able-bodied men in the family died, and the remaining wife and children also perished.
Five lives lost in one family.
This is also why Xie Qingyu hesitated.
Tu Shen had already lost some hope.
It wasn't just him; almost everyone present was in the same boat.
They were all experienced hunters, and they had seen this kind of situation several times since they were young. If someone was injured so badly by a wild animal, even if they were brought back, they would just be waiting to die. It was just a matter of when they would take their last breath.
Do you have any needles at home?
"Have."
"We need to stitch up the wound on his stomach, otherwise the bleeding won't stop." Xie Qingyu's words were too horrifying, but fortunately, Tu Shen was the only listener.
"Is this possible?"
"I don't know, but if it's sewn up, there's a sliver of hope for survival; if it's not sewn up, it'll die."
She lost too much blood.
"I'll go tell you."
Tu Shen knew that no one would believe him if he said this, so he also said that Xie Qingyu had seen this treatment method when she was down the mountain, but there were no doctors on the mountain, and no one knew whether it would work.
"Who sewed it?" his wife asked tremblingly.
Tu Shen also looked at Xie Qingyu, clearly indicating that Xie Qingyu, who had proposed this method, was the first choice.
But Xie Qingyu couldn't see it.
Not many people know that she can see it.
“My eyesight isn’t very good yet, and I can’t see the details clearly,” Xie Qingyu said. “So… I’ll do the talking, and you sew it.”
"Me?" The daughter-in-law's voice changed; she was utterly incredulous.
Xie Qingyu remained silent, only looking at her, "If you're not going to stitch it up, just apply the medicine directly."
Xie Qingyu's words didn't imply that she absolutely had to save her; they seemed more like she didn't care. This made her panic instinctively. "Feng, teach me."
She's usually very good at sewing clothes, and even the patches she makes look really nice... I guess it's the same with sewing people.
From the moment she mentioned sewing, Xie Qingyu had already brought over the lamp.
The thread was sterilized by throwing it into the medicine pot, and the needle was briefly heated over a fire.
Her hands were trembling, and she had to ask Xie Qingyu if she should tie the knots the same way as normal before she could tie them.
Before it began, Xie Qingyu had cleared everyone else out, leaving only the two of them in the room.
When she shakily began to put the needle down, her hands were shaking uncontrollably, but she steadied herself with Xie Qingyu's comforting words.
After just two injections, the man groaned in pain, causing his wife to break down completely, tears streaming down her face. However, she didn't stop what she was doing because Xie Qingyu hadn't told her to stop.
The man's cries of pain even gave her a glimmer of hope.
When the last injection was finished, Xie Qingyu handed her the medicine that Tu Shen had prepared earlier and asked her to apply it.
When Xie Qingyu opened the door, there were already many people outside, and all eyes were on her.
