After a brief period of shock, Ma Wenbo reacted first, took two steps forward to the operating table, and carefully inspected Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's right arms again.
He even imitated what Lin Yang had done just now, picking up some rotten flesh and blood with his hands, putting it under his nose and smelling it.
This scene left the doctors and nurses in the operating room stunned.
That strange doctor was just messing around. Why did Director Ma also join in the mess?
Ma Wenbo ignored the surprised looks from the people around him. After some inspection, he frowned and said solemnly: "The wounds of the two of them deteriorated and rotted very quickly, and the flesh and blood exuded a strong and pungent smell of corpses. In addition,
, the wound area is abnormally itchy, making people desperately want to scratch it. Coupled with the black tongue coating, disordered pulse, and congested and dilated pupils... all the symptoms are really the same as the corpse poison recorded in "The Medical Records of the Expedition"
The symptoms are very similar”
"Marching Medical Records" is a medical book born in the late Yuan Dynasty. It mainly records the conditions and treatment methods of knife wounds, arrow wounds, poison wounds, acclimatization and other diseases that are easy to encounter when marching and fighting.
In the field of traditional Chinese medicine, although the value of this medical book is not as good as that of famous medical classics such as "Qian Jin Prescription", "Acupuncture Jia B Jing" and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", it still has its own unique features.
Like what Lin Yang and Ma Wenbo are talking about now, 'corpse toxin syndrome' is very detailedly recorded in this medical book.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, rebels from all over the country rose up one after another because they were dissatisfied with the tyrannical rule of the Yuan court. War continued and turmoil arose across the land of China.
In that period of troubled times, human lives were like nothing. In every battle, hundreds or even thousands of people would be killed. In some larger-scale battles, the number of casualties was tens of thousands. Afterwards, all forces often
They don't pay much attention to sanitary treatment. The generals who died in battle may be buried. But most of the corpses can only be thrown into the wilderness and left to be exposed to the wind and sun.
If there were only one or two corpses, there would be no problem. But when tens of thousands of corpses gather together and cannot be dealt with in a timely and effective manner, corpse poison will naturally be born. Therefore, at the same time,
It is not surprising that there are records related to cadaver poisoning in the "March Medical Records" that was born.
It's just that corpse poison mostly only appears in troubled times when human life is at stake. Now, it's a peaceful era. Where did this corpse poison come from?
Ma Wenbo's heart was full of questions.
"Director Ma, is there really corpse poison in this world?"
In the operating room, a young doctor finally couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked.
In his opinion, things like corpse poison are a bit mysterious, and they are simply plots that only appear in novels.
"Of course," Ma Wenbo replied: "The description and explanation of corpse poison can not only be found in traditional Chinese medicine classics. Similarly, there are also related studies and records in many Western medical books. Even the Encyclopedia Britannica
"In it, there are also explanations about corpse poison."
Having said this, he paused slightly and his expression became more solemn: "It's just that although the symptoms of corpse poison can be found in many medical books, there has never been an effective way to treat it.
method."
At this time, Ma Wenbo couldn't help but look at Lin Yang. In his eyes, apart from expectation, the rest was filled with nervousness. His voice also became stuttering at this time: "Mr. Ji, you
Is there anything you can do?"
It is said that caring leads to chaos, and he is not immune to this.
Lin Yang didn’t guarantee anything, he just said: “I’ll do my best.”
But for some reason, after Ma Wenbo heard what he said, his nervous and flustered mood immediately calmed down.
He has seen Lin Yang's medical skills, so he firmly believes that as long as Lin Yang is willing to take action, no matter how serious or fatal the incurable disease is, it will definitely be cured
His confidence in Lin Yang is greater than Lin Yang's own confidence in himself.
"What do you need me to do? I'll be your assistant," Ma Wenbo asked.
Lin Yang had cooperated with him several times, and was not polite at all. He immediately ordered: "Go and get some willow branches and glutinous rice. First soak the willow branches in water, boil them over high heat for twenty minutes, and then divide the boiled willow branches into water."
Two parts, one part is brought to the operating room while it is hot, I will use it. The other part is used to steam and cook the glutinous rice. Once the glutinous rice is cooked, it must be sent over immediately, otherwise the treatment of cadaveric disease will be delayed."
Naturally, Ma Wenbo did not need to do these things himself. He pointed to a nurse in the operating room and said, "Did you hear Mr. Ji's request clearly? Go and do it quickly."
"Willow branches and glutinous rice? These two things can also be used to treat diseases?" Although the nurse was full of doubts, she did not ask. After nodding, she quickly walked out of the operating room and hurried to Lin's office.
These are the things Yang ordered.
"Scalpel"
Lin Yang stretched out his hand, and Ma Wenbo quickly picked up the scalpel and handed it over.
Holding the scalpel, Lin Yang quickly removed the rotten flesh near the wounds on Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's right arms.
"We haven't given any anesthesia yet." A doctor suddenly remembered that although Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang had been sent to the operating room for some time, they had not decided on anesthesia because the surgical plan had not been determined. Now, Lin
If Yang directly goes under the knife, can these two people tolerate it?
However, what surprised and even horrified him was that when Lin Yang was removing the rotten flesh near the wound on his right arm, Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang, instead of crying out in pain, the two young men even shouted that they felt comfortable.
"It's so comfortable. It hurts so much. The pain and itching are gone. It's so comfortable."
From the words of Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang, it is not difficult to see that they have been driven crazy by the itching caused by the corpse poison, and even the severe pain caused by cutting out the flesh is no longer enough for them.
became a kind of enjoyment
Seeing this, the doctors and nurses in the operating room couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in their hearts.
They were even a little lucky that the person infected with the corpse poison was not them.
This corpse toxin disease is really terrible
Lin Yang's actions can be said to be 'quick, accurate, and steady. In just seven or eight minutes, the rotten flesh from the wounds on Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's right arms was completely removed.
"Saline solution"
Putting down the scalpel, Lin Yang took an open bottle of saline from Ma Wenbo's hand and used it to wash the wounds of Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang. The two men, covered in cold sweat, were breathing heavily while
Said: "It's comfortable, it really hurts, it's so damn comfortable, as long as it doesn't itch, it's the most comfortable feeling."
The doctors and nurses in the operating room shuddered when they saw the numbness in the scalp.
After rinsing the wound, Lin Yang ordered: "Give them both intravenous drips of large doses of antibiotics."
The two of them had already undergone penicillin skin tests when they entered the operating room. Upon hearing Lin Yang's instructions, the nurse quickly came forward to give them intravenous drips.
Under normal circumstances, the infusion needle is inserted into the blood vessel on the back of the hand. But now, the back of Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's right hand has been scratched to pieces. The muscles of the left hand have also become hard and tight because of scratching too hard. There is nothing they can do.
The needle was inserted. In the end, the nurse could only insert the needle on the instep of the two people, and then successfully injected penicillin into them.
While the nurse was racking her brains to infuse Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang, Lin Yang put down the bottle of saline in his hand and asked, "Mr. Ma, have you brought the Spirit Snake Injection?"
"Bring it here." Ma Wenbo quickly took out the needle box containing the snake needle.
After receiving a call from Lin Yang earlier, he quickly asked people from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department to send over the Spirit Snake Acupuncture. Sure enough, he was right to prepare in advance. Will the Spirit Snake Acupuncture be sent right now?
Is it useful?
Opening the sandalwood needle box, Lin Yang took out several snake-shaped needles made of gold.
These spiritual snake needles, which are extremely difficult to control in the hands of ordinary acupuncturists, are very obedient between Lin Yang's index and middle fingers. They penetrate into Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liangyou in a special arc.
In several acupuncture points on the arm.
Along with the acupuncture, wisps of soul power entered the bodies of Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang through the spirit snake needle, and followed the blood circulation to all parts of their bodies in an instant, forcing the corpse poison that had spread to all parts of their bodies to re-enter.
Go back to the left arm.
The corpse poisons that refused to submit struggled desperately, but the amount of their invasion into Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's bodies was limited after all. Under Lin Yang's nearly full force, they could only retreat steadily, and were soon forced back to the left arm.
middle.
At this moment, a nurse came in from the operating room with a steaming basin in her arms. She gasped and said, "Here comes the willow water. It was boiled just now. It's very hot."
"Give it to me." Lin Yang turned around and took the pot of boiling willow water from her hand. Just when people were guessing what he wanted this thing to do, he boiled it just now.
Opened, the hot willow water poured directly on the wounds on Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's left arms.
"Ah - that's the boiling water that was boiled just now." The nurse who brought the willow water into the operating room was immediately frightened.
The sound of boiling water scalding meat suddenly sounded, and the doctors and nurses in the operating room even smelled the smell of cooked meat.
Zhou Liang and Ma Wanwen, who were tied to the operating table, still did not cry out in pain, but just grinned miserably: "It's so hot and painful, but it's so comfortable. Keep going, keep going."
Their emotions were as crazy as crazy, and their expressions were particularly ferocious due to the various painful tortures, which frightened the experienced doctors and nurses in the operating room and couldn't help but feel a sense of horror.
Of course, they are still more confused.
"That was boiling willow water. He poured it directly on the patient's wound. Aren't he afraid that doing so would cause secondary harm to the patient?"
The doctors and nurses in the operating room really couldn't figure out Lin Yang's purpose in pouring hot willow water on the wounds on Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang's right arms.
Although Ma Wenbo was also puzzled, he did not ask questions, but carefully recorded every step of Lin Yang's treatment measures in his mind.
Although cadaver poisoning is rare in peacetime, if the treatment method of this strange disease can be mastered and passed down, it will undoubtedly be a great good thing that can benefit thousands of people.
Obviously, deep down in his heart, Ma Wenbo has determined that Lin Yang can cure the terrible corpse poisoning disease that Ma Wanwen and Zhou Liang are suffering from.
