Chapter 28 You are responsible for my mother
“They all have talents?”
"Yes!"
Xilinguyi nodded in confirmation, "Sister Jing has an icy physique, and the two sisters Su Beibei and Su Mengmeng, one speeds up time, and the other slows down time..."
"I don't know the details, go ask them yourself tomorrow!"
Ye Xiu smiled. He had always thought that the awakening of talent was a low-probability event, but he didn't expect that the women he married actually had all of them.
After upgrading the shelter tomorrow morning, I will have to take stock of all their talents.
Without further ado, Ye Xiu pulled Xilinguyi into his arms and fell asleep peacefully.
……
At the same time, in the camp at the foot of Qinglu Mountain, the scene was quite different.
After several days of hard work, they used the existing materials to build a number of wooden houses. However, the defensive performance of these wooden houses was poor, and many stronger abnormal creatures could not be stopped at all.
The density of abnormal creatures in the wild area is much lower, but it does not mean that they do not exist. The survivors in the camp suffered heavy casualties.
Back in the city, supplies are difficult to obtain; in the wild, the shelters are poorly defended and there is no perfect solution at all.
In a wooden house, Tang Yutong instructed the assistant beside him to press hard on the chest of a middle-aged man in his forties in front of him.
This middle-aged man had just had a large piece of flesh bitten off by the Night Demon. The wound was uneven and blood was gushing out of his chest madly. He was gasping for breath and could no longer speak.
"Dr. Tang, please save my dad!" A girl who was about ten years old nearby clenched her fists and watched everything in panic.
She burst into tears but was of no help at all.
"Hold it!" Tang Yutong gritted her teeth and pressed the wound hard, while using a wooden needle to pass through the silk thread removed from the clothes, trying her best to sew the wound.
She used to be just an internist, but now she had to do all these things. The medical conditions were too poor, there were no equipment at all, so she could only use what she had and do her best.
After five minutes, she finally sewed up the victim's wound, but the victim had stopped breathing due to excessive blood loss.
"Dad!!" The little girl broke down crying and knelt weakly beside the middle-aged man.
Tang Yutong stood aside with blood on her hands, her hair disheveled, and she was breathing heavily. She didn't cry, as she had already run out of tears in the past few days.
She just blamed herself for not being able to save these people. For the first time, she felt powerless as a doctor.
"Give your father a good last journey." She patted the little girl's shoulder.
"Doctor Tang, please come and see my mother. She is dying!" Before she could even take a minute to rest, another man rushed into the cabin.
"What's wrong with Aunt Xu?" Tang Yutong asked quickly.
The man's name was Cui Zhibin. He came to the Qinglu Lake Camp with Zheng Biao and Tang Yutong, so they were familiar with each other.
Cui Zhibin's mother was not actually injured by an attack from an abnormal creature. She was just injured in an accident on the way to Qinglu Lake Camp five days ago.
Tang Yutong had already bandaged her, but she didn't expect that something would go wrong again at this time.
Cui Zhibin said quickly, "I don't know. My mother is twitching all over and can't stop. It's so scary. Go and have a look!" The middle-aged man here is already dead, and the disposal of the body will be handed over to the men in the camp. There is no point in Tang Yutong staying here any longer. After a little thought, she followed Cui Zhibin out.
They came to another wooden house, which had only a simple mat made of scattered branches on the floor, and some other people standing nearby to help. Cui Zhibin's mother, Xu Cuiping, was lying among the branches.
The situation was exactly the same as Cui Zhibin described. His whole body was twitching, breathing was difficult, and his eyelids were rolling back, as if every breath took all his strength.
Tang Yutong hurried over and asked Cui Zhibin to help stabilize Xu Cuiping's leg. He then removed the bandage and saw the wound inside. The wound was already white around and pus was flowing deep inside. As soon as it was opened, a foul odor could be smelled.
The wound was already severely infected. In Xu Cuiping's case, it was obvious that she had symptoms of tetanus infecting the whole body.
"Is there water on Aunt Xu's wound?" Tang Yutong asked with a frown.
Cui Zhibin replied: "My mother went to the lake to fish two days ago. Does that count as seeing water?"
Tang Yutong scolded, "Didn't I tell her that her wound must not come into contact with water? How dare you let her go into the water to fish? Do you know how many bacteria there are in the lake?"
"She just wanted us to have something to eat. What's wrong with that?"
Cui Zhibin asked anxiously, "What should we do now?"
"Xiao Zhang, bring some boiled water!" Tang Yutong stopped talking and asked the assistant beside him to hand over some clean water to clean Xu Cuiping's wound. Then he bit the Nine-section Wind into pieces and applied it on the wound. Finally, he bandaged the wound with a clean cloth.
Nine-section wind is an herbal medicine that can treat external injuries. Although it only has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, this is all it can do under current conditions.
After treating the wound for about ten minutes, Xu Cuiping stopped twitching and her breathing became more stable, but she was still in a coma and did not wake up.
Cui Zhibin asked anxiously: "Is my mother okay now?"
Tang Yutong shook her head: "The convulsions caused by tetanus are intermittent. Aunt Xu is just calming down for a while now. It may recur in a few hours. Because the wound is not properly protected, the symptoms have now spread to the whole body. If she can survive tonight, there may be a turn for the better tomorrow. If not, then..."
Tang Yutong didn't continue. In fact, she was already very tactful.
Tetanus is not an incurable disease in modern medicine, but with the current medical conditions, without antibiotics and disinfectants, there is very little she can do. The fact is that without medicine, Xu Cuiping would hardly survive.
Cui Zhibin was obviously very dissatisfied with this answer.
"How is it possible? My mom only had an ordinary external injury, how could it be so serious? Doctor Tang, you were the one who bandaged the wound before, you have to be responsible for my mom!"
Tang Yutong was a little unhappy, but still patiently explained: "I bandaged it well, it was you who didn't protect the wound well, causing it to get worse. Doctors are not omnipotent. There are no antibiotics now, there's not much I can do!"
"I do not care!"
Cui Zhibin said, "You are the only doctor in the camp. If you don't take responsibility, are you going to watch my mother die?"
Tang Yutong: “…”
She really wanted to talk to Cui Zhibin about science, but now she no longer had the energy.
"Forget it, let's see if our people who went out to collect resources can find the medicine."
The people in the camp now also know about the "resource point".
Zheng Biao organized a team to go out and collect resources in the morning.
