Chapter 161: Chapter 34

“We need to carry him inside, first. Dolsok, Makbong!”

“Yes, master.”

Dolsok and Makbong had much larger build than the guys who carried the wounded man.

‘I can't rule out that the man had other injuries in his neck and other areas, given his head injuries like that…'

So, it was pretty dangerous to move the patient up or down recklessly.

“Hey, Makbong, you hold him by the head, and Dolsok, you hold him by the legs. Let me hold his waist and neck. Carry him inside the room.”

“Like this?”

“Good.”

Three of them carried him inside quickly.

Kanghyok laid him down on the bed cautiously, while Dolsok quickly closed the door.

‘He is unconscious.'

That was not a good sign.

“Dolsok, check his blood pressure.”

“Oh, yes.”

“Yoni, boil some water.”

“Got it.”

Fortunately, both of them could carry out Kanghyok's orders well. Thanks to their a.s.sistance, he could check the patient's condition closely.

‘His head was not injured… How about his eyes?'

Kanghyok inspected the patient's two eyes with a penlight.

His pupillary reflex was working, but the surface of his eyeb.a.l.l.s was rough. There was no sign of black and blue coloration around his eyes.

Without a CT scan machine, the best he could do was to infer from the patient's specific symptoms.

“His intraocular pressure went up. This indicates he had a stroke. Looks like he had no fractures on his head.”

Kanghyok used strange medical tools and terminology.

Joon Huh stood there with an embarra.s.sed look. It was the first time he saw a doctor make a diagnosis like that.

“Sir, what are you doing now?” Joon Huh asked.

He was asking not in a rebuking manner, but out of pure curiosity as a doctor.

“Well, I don't have time to explain at length, but what's certain is that he will die if left uncured like this.”

“What can I do for you?”

There was no question that Joon Huh was an excellent doctor, but now, it was Dolsok and Yoni who were more helpful to him.

“As I have learned from you so far, it's time for me to pay back,” said Kanghyok.

“Oh, I see.”

Joon Huh mourned for a moment, but then continued to watch him perform.

“Get up! What's your name? No response. He's in a coma right now,” Kanghyok was shouting, pressing on the patient's heavage strongly.

“Give me scissors!”

Then he was shaving the patient's hair completely.

“How come you are shaving his hair?” asked Dolsok.

“Do you want me to let him die like this?”

In Joon Huh's eyes, Kanghyok's treatment looked like a barbarian act.

Blood was coming out of his scalp now.

‘Dang it. I can't scorch it…'

He couldn't do it, either, because the wounded area was too big.

Kanghyok handed over several gauze strips to Dolsok and said, “Now, hold onto it with this.”

“I think my hands are going to get stained with blood.”

“You put on gloves, right?”

“I still feel uncomfortable…”

“Hey, you'll see lots of bleeding from him today. So, stay alert. Yoni, are you okay?”

Though Dolsok said it like that, he had some experience before. He a.s.sisted Kanghyok with doing the surgery on Soonsin.

But Yoni felt nervous as she previously helped him only with simple medical aid. Given her strong resolve, however, Kanghyok was not worried.

“Yes, I can do it.”

“Great. Let's start now.”

Kanghyok held a scalpel. Instead of his usual relaxed and carefree att.i.tude, Kanghyok seemed quite serious with a tense look.

‘Can I do it?'

No matter how good he was at doing the surgery, it was just unthinkable for him to do an operation on a patient's head in a thatched house.

He opened the broken wounds on the patient's scalp.

“Open it like that. Yoju, you could draw me doing this, if you can.”

“Huh? Okay, master.”

“Yes.”

Yoni opened the wounds on both sides with the tweezers he gave her.

In order not to disturb them, Yoju quickly moved her hand in the background to draw him.

When else could she seize the moment to draw his blood gus.h.i.+ng and his flesh opened like that?

“Now, give me the hammer and chisel.”

“Oh, do you really want me to give this tool to you?”

As Dolsok pressed on the bleeding area, the strong gus.h.i.+ng of blood was staunched.

He began to see the white bone between the patient's scalp. It looked like his master was going to strike it down.

“Give it to me now!”
