Chapter 43: Doctor

Jiangjiaba is connected to the Huaihe River, surrounded by Honghu Lake, and connected to the Yangtze River at the bottom. The town is not big, but there are several rivers surrounding the town.

Big boats can't enter such a river, but the Lu family's fishing boats can travel unimpeded.

And because Jiangjiaba is surrounded by fertile fields except for water, the wheat harvest has just been completed. All the farmers are busy in the fields, either plowing the fields or diverting water to plant rice seedlings.

Occasionally, boats would pass by in the river, and the appearance of the Lu family's boat did not attract anyone else's attention.

Lu Quan did not take the people back to the dock rashly, but followed one of the rivers and quietly parked the boat under a tree not far from the alley.

Lu has been running back and forth in the town all day long, so he naturally knows where it is convenient to park the boat, where there is a road into the town, and where it is suitable to park the boat to avoid being noticed without anyone noticing.

After tying up the boat, Lu Quan told Lu Xiange: "Go to the drugstore to find Dr. Xie. I'll guard him here."

"good."

Seeing Lu Sheige quickly getting on the gangplank and landing neatly on the shore, Lu Quan worriedly warned him again: "Remember to ask for Doctor Xie, not the old Doctor Xie."

"Know it."

Lu Shege knew Dr. Xie.

The Xie Family Pharmacy is an ancestral store that has been practicing medicine for generations. Doctor Xie's generation is already the fifth generation of the Xie family to practice medicine in Jiangjiaba.

There are only two doctors in the store, who take care of both medical consultation and medicine preparation, while the women and children at home do all the chores such as preparing the medicines in the store.

Dr. Xie is a bit old, so he usually manages medicinal materials and teaches his grandson how to identify medicines and diseases. Occasionally, he does medical consultations, but not much.

Doctor Xie is responsible for almost everything in the store.

Dr. Xie has excellent medical skills and is cautious. He is a benevolent and good doctor. The most important thing is that he only saves people and does not care about anything else and will not say much.

He was very tight-lipped, which was why Lu Quan told Lu Sheige.

Back then, Lu Sheige was shot through the heart with an arrow and almost died. It was this doctor who saw her and pulled her back from hell.

Now Lu Sheige can eat and sleep. Although he is physically strong, he is no worse than ordinary children. This is partly due to Dr. Xie's contribution.

Lu Sheige entered the alley and trotted, and soon turned into the main road.

Jiangjiaba Town is connected from north to south. If you follow the bluestone road from one end to the other, you can cover the entire town in less than half an hour.

When the doctor in the town was carrying the medicine box on his back and was dragged all the way to the boat by Lu Sheige, the rescued man had not yet woken up and was lying half-reclined in a corner of the cabin, supported by Lu Quan.

His clothes were already soaked when he was rescued from the water, and now they are mostly dry while lying on the deck in the sun and wind. However, his hair is messy, his eyes are closed, and his face is frighteningly pale.

"You kid, you made me run so hard that I almost couldn't catch my breath."

Although he complained, Doctor Xie was not slow at all. He put down the medicine box, bent down to take off the clothes of the drowning man, and carefully examined the wounds on his body.

As soon as he took off his clothes, he saw that the man's body was covered with new wounds and old wounds, with no less than a dozen large and small wounds.

The most serious one was right under his left armpit, near his lower back.

When Lu Xiangge came out of the cabin, he only took a quick look and already felt that the wound that was so deep that he could see the bone was terrifying. Not to mention that Lu Quan was standing aside, just looking at it made his scalp numb and his hands trembled uncontrollably.

"This wound is a bit deep!"

Doctor Xie couldn't help but asked one more question, "This person?"

He was also familiar with Lu Quan for a long time, otherwise he would never have said these words.

"Xiaosi and I picked it up on the lake."

Lu Quan's voice was a little low, "You also know the rules of us sailors. If you don't meet someone, it's fine. If you meet someone, you should always help him out."

Even if there is a corpse, it must be salvaged and buried.

After all, sailors like them rely on water for their livelihood, so how could they allow people to soak and rot in this water!

Dr. Xie also understands these rules.

"Looking at the wound, it was obviously a stab wound."

As he spoke, Doctor Xie made gestures on the wound with his hand, and lowered his voice to remind Lu Quan, "This was a single-handed attack from behind. Judging from the clothes of this warrior, he should be from the Hongying Army..."

Doctor Xie did not say anything else. When he heard the words "Hongying Army", Lu Quan was so frightened that his face turned pale and he was speechless for a long time.

Hongying Army, isn't that the rebel army that revolted in Huaicheng?

Why did you come to Honghu?

Seeing that Lu Quan was frightened, Dr.

Other injured areas were carefully cleaned up.

"Only the armpit is injured a bit deeply, but the other parts are fine. It's just that this person's injury is a bit serious. I'm afraid it will be difficult to wake up for a while. Even if he wakes up, it's hard to say whether he can survive. Are you going to

He took it back or sent it to the pharmacy."

If it had been anyone else, Dr. Xie would not have bothered with this matter.

But Lu Quan was no one else. Last winter, Dr. Xie went to the countryside for medical treatment. When he came back, he accidentally slipped and fell into the water. Lu Quan happened to be passing by in a boat and risked his life to fish him out of the lake.

If it weren't for Lu Quan, I don't know whether Dr. Xie knew how to swim and whether he could swim up. Even if he could barely save himself and get ashore, in the wilderness and the coldest month of winter, he would have been frozen to death if he didn't drown.

Doctor Xie knew that Lu Quan was a good person, and if he met him, even if he knew that the other party was Hongyingjun, he would not save him.

Since the person has been saved and his hands have been touched, the person's injuries are really serious.

The wound was deep enough to show the bones, and because it had been soaked in water for a long time and lost too much blood, the wound had turned white and started to rot.

If you don't take good care of it, you may not be able to survive even if you rescue it.

When the time comes, the person dies, and if someone traces it to Lu Shen, he or she will not be able to tell the truth.

It would be better for him to take him back, take good care of him, and try to get this person to wake up and leave early to reduce unnecessary trouble. He also runs a pharmacy, and if someone really wants to investigate this matter, he will say it is

Someone left this man in front of the pharmacy.

He is just a doctor with a parent-like heart, and cannot ignore death without rescuing someone.

If Lu Quan were to take him back, not to mention that his family only had a fishing boat and a shack. There were many men and injured patients in his family for no reason. As long as someone with a heart made a little inquiry, Lu Quan would easily get into trouble in this matter.

"this……"

Lu Quan was a little hesitant. Of course, it would be best to send it to a drugstore.

There are doctors in the drugstore who will consult you. If there is any trouble, such as headache, fever, or wounds, etc., they will all be taken care of by dedicated personnel.

But, he has no money.

If you send it to a pharmacy, it will cost you much more money than at home.

The most fatal thing is that this person may be Hongyingjun. If he is sent to the pharmacy, will it hinder Dr. Xie?

If he didn't save people at that time, he would harm Doctor Xie's whole family instead.
