121 Miracles of Medicine 1 (2/2)
Xia Lian was completely unaware of the situation, or that these people were observing her closely. She was completely involved in treating the man in front of her. He Chun and others slowly made their way towards her back and stood behind quietly, because they were highly afraid to disturb the kid's work.
Everyone observed Xia Lian clean the wounds using a weird green liquid. Additionally she sprinkled some herbal powder and started to wrap the wound carefully. Afterwards the little girl proceeded to touch his arms and the man let out a cry of pain. His expression was getting worse by the second.
In response, Xia Lian took out a dart filled with her own anesthetic liquid and quickly injected him in the hand, directly into a blood vessel. After a few moments she checked the situation again and asked the man calmly, while touching his hands, ” Do you still feel any pain?”
The man shook his head in a daze because he was amazed by this doctor in front of him. He didn't know what kind of magical liquid was used on him, but he did not feel pain anymore. It was simply a miracle.
Xia Lian looked at Fan Ling ,who immediately prepared a new pair of wooden sticks and fresh bandages and placed it carefully around the man's arms. In a short amount of time the little girl very skillfully wrapped the bandages around the arms ,with Fan Ling supporting the branches with her hands.
The patient looked at Xia Lian with gratitude filling his eyes and was about to get up when she sternly rebuked him, ” Lie down and rest well. After you recover completely you can do or speak anything. I won't run away, don't worry.”
While already having her eyes on the next patient, she swiftly turned away. The situation was slightly awkward, because his master apparently didn't notice them. Bao Su coughed a few times, finally gaining her attention. But in the end, she just ignored them and turned to Fan Ling, ” Clean all my needles and scalpels in hot water. I will resume after a while.”
Xia Lian removed her gloves, revealing her small hands that were full of glistening sweat, and threw it in the wooden basket, kept separately for wastes. Everyone noticed that the basket was filled with bloody gloves, cotton which was used for cleaning etc..
Before engaging in a conversation, the little girl carried the basket outside and even after returning, she first thoroughly cleaned her hands, before greeting her guests. He Chun observed the lad's treatment procedures earlier and he was now fully convinced that his skill in medicine was more advanced than even himself. Furthermore, he had a faint feeling that there was more to learn, than he caught with his eyes.
” My apologies for not greeting you earlier.” Xia Lian apologized with a humble attitude, because it was indeed rude to let them wait for such a long time.
” You are doing what a doctor should do. No need to apologise. We are here due to the request of your guard, in order to help you with your patients.” He Chun smiled slightly while he admired this kid's conduct. After receiving such a generous reply, the little girl already classified the refined man in front of her as a good nurtured soul and considered accepting them into her hospital, provided they were skilled enough. After contemplating for a few seconds she finally made a decision.
