After returning from their adventure to Bailuzhou during the last Renaissance Festival, Claude and his so-called junior high school quartet once again caused a sensation in the town. When Erikson summoned the sailors and employees at the dock to help bring the Niros
When the alligator's carcass was pulled from the water and placed on the dock, people who came to see the Niros crocodile surrounded the Erikson family's private dock.
However, based on the experience last time, Erikson was already mentally prepared this time. He ordered Uncle Peg, who was guarding the dock, to close the door, and no idlers without identity or connections were allowed to enter. This ensured that his dock would not be blocked.
It seemed very crowded. Anyway, those watching the excitement could see the crocodile carcass on the ground without entering the pier.
The Erikson family's private pier is not big. It was originally reconstructed from the beach on the lakeside. It is more than two meters lower than the roads in the town. It is more than 20 meters long and only about eight meters wide. Except for the lakeside
, only a wooden railing was used to surround the other three directions. On the side close to the road, a row of houses made of logs and stones were built, which were temporary dormitories and warehouses for sailors.
The carcass of the Niros crocodile is now lying in the open space in front of that row of houses. In fact, you don’t need to enter the pier and you can see it clearly standing on the road.
It's just that everyone is curious, and the more they are not allowed to enter, the more they want to enter. Although they can see clearly from a distance, they want to go in to feel it up close or to touch it. Now the gate of the pier is crowded with people.
People are all building relationships with Uncle Peg. Fortunately, Uncle Peg is unselfish, and none of those insignificant onlookers are involved.
Bokoal had already rushed up to the pier when the body of the Niros crocodile was pulled up. Erikson actually remembered to have the three fishing nets removed from the deck, and then he also ran to the crocodile carcass.
, saying that he and Bockal first untied the driftwood markers tied to them...
Viricolo had no choice but to help Claude drag his injured foot up to the pier. The height difference between the deck of the fishing boat and the pier was more than one meter. If Viricolo hadn't helped him, Claude would have thought
It's really difficult to climb up.
"Can you stand?" Viricero asked.
Claude stood on one foot, supported Vericro with one hand, and placed the matchlock gun on the ground with the other hand. He tried to step on the ground with his left foot that was twisted to the ankle: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore.
, it should be able to stand."
"But your foot is still so swollen, the pharmacist should let you bleed it..." Viricero said.
Well, the medical treatment skills in this world left Claude speechless. He didn't know how to evaluate them. Let's talk about advanced ones. There are treatment potions and detoxification potions here. Although they are not like blood replenishing and detoxifying potions in the game, the actual effect is indeed very good.
That’s right. For common colds and other minor illnesses, if you have money, go to a pharmacist and make sure you get one dose. Of course, if you don’t have money, you can only suffer and rely on your own physical constitution to overcome the pain.
In a sense, Claude felt that these pharmacists were like those traditional Chinese medicine doctors in ancient times. Although they could not check the pulse and tongue coating, they extracted the essence from various herbs and refined them into medicines to treat diseases. They only mentioned the source.
If so, there would be no such thing as Shennong Tasting Hundreds of Herbs, but the recipes for these potions are said to be left by magicians during the Dark Calendar...
This is a clear slap in the face to mainland countries for promoting the theory that magicians are evil. Therefore, the current pharmacology theory only vaguely claims that this is the wisdom of the ancients, without explaining the true source of these pharmaceutical prescriptions.
However, since the people of Farea continent drove those evil magicians to the island with muskets, the mainland's pharmacy, that is, medicine has not stopped developing. On the contrary, with the outbreak of wars between countries, surgical operations and trauma treatment have
Technology has indeed made great progress. For example, Verricero used needles and catgut to suture the wounds on Erikson's face on the fishing boat. These have become common sense in the treatment of junior high school students.
But in some aspects, the medical technology in this world is not only backward but also very ignorant. For example, for high blood pressure, the pharmacist's suggestion is to make an incision on the head and draw some blood. They don't know why people have high blood pressure, but since they feel
If you feel dizzy, dizzy, and have hot blood, you should bleed some blood to calm down. For patients with internal illnesses like this, if they can’t find out the cause, they usually recommend phlebotomy. This is a universal treatment.
There are also toothaches. There are no dentists in this world. It’s all the work of pharmacists. Their treatment method is to pull out the tooth, whichever tooth hurts. Once the tooth is pulled out, it won’t hurt anymore. Like Claude, the ankle is sprained and swollen.
Like a big loaf of bread, the pharmacist would first bleed, then set the bones, and finally put some plaster on. After all, they didn’t know how to eliminate the congestion in the swollen area, so it was easier to just open an incision and let it bleed. Anyway, there are therapeutic medicines, so for the cut made by the knife,
The most effective treatment for trauma...
Claude smiled bitterly: "Let him cut the knife if it should be cut, and bleed it if it should be bled, otherwise the foot will not heal."
"Then do you want to go to the pharmacy now or wait for a while?" Verricro looked at the crowded crowd outside the dock gate and felt a headache. There were too many people and it was difficult to go out.
Claude looked there and felt helpless: "Well, you help me to Uncle Peg's house, I'll sit there for a while, and then I'll call a carriage to take me there when there are less people.
You go and do your work, and don't forget to send my share to my house."
Claude was referring to the captured lake fish and the nine hunted waterfowl. Anyway, it was already agreed that all that could be sold would be sold by Boquear. The remaining money would be used to pay for the repair costs of the small fishing boat.
The four people shared it equally. Of course, it was impossible to sell all the catches and waterfowl. At least some had to be kept for everyone to take home and try.
Over there, Bockar stood with Erikson and carried his matchlock gun, dancing and telling the story of hunting the Niros crocodile. I don't know what kind of thrilling story they would make up. But Claude and
Viricero knew it all in his mind, so he just omitted the two of them's soy sauce process and embarrassing performance, and described the two of them as brave and fearless.
Verricro helped Claude to the gate of the pier, took out a wooden bench from Uncle Peg's house for Claude to sit on, and then hurried back to the small fishing boat. Bockar and Erikson were now
They were busy showing off their two crocodile-hunting warriors beside the crocodile carcass, and did not bother to pack up the catch in the living water tank and the nine hunted waterfowl. In addition, they had to move up the food and utensils in the storage tank. These trivial matters
Everything has been left to Vericero to take care of.
Claude sat on the stool and watched Uncle Peg ruthlessly reject the onlookers outside the gate who wanted to come in for friendship. Of course, Uncle Peg did not turn away everyone, he knew very well who they were.
They should be let in. For example, the few business owners and prominent people in the town who just arrived in private carriages are the ones that even Ericson's father, Captain Otruni, would not dare to offend easily...
Bailu Town is too small, with a permanent population of less than 100,000, so any big-assed thing can spread throughout the town in the blink of an eye. I believe the Niros crocodile they hunted this time will become a legend in Bailu Town in the future.
For many years, the residents of White Deer Town have never seen such a big Niros crocodile. Occasionally, some people can hunt one or two meters long and blow it in the tavern for half a year. This time it was more than four meters long.
Niros Crocodile, or four sixteen-year-old boys hunted such a terrifying monster...
When the town's patrol supervisor brought a few subordinates to watch the excitement, many of the onlookers outside the pier gate dispersed. They already knew that the excitement inside the pier was not something they could cope with.
They are all people with status, status and wealth in the town. Now even if they are allowed in, they dare not get close to those people. In this case, it is better to go to the road above, where they can still see clearly from a high position.
Claude was sitting in front of the house. Those who came in through the gate did not notice him. Their attention was on the carcass of the Niros crocodile lying in the open space on the pier. However, when the patrol supervisor came in, he ordered his men to disperse the crowd.
The crowd at the gate maintained order, then turned around and saw him.
"Claude?" said the patrol supervisor.
"Oh, good afternoon, Uncle Thomas." Claude greeted quickly. This is his father's colleague. He is also a frequent visitor when Mr. Morsant holds banquets at home. He is always drunk every time...
The patrol supervisor looked at the Niros crocodile carcass in the distance, and then at the matchlock gun held by Claude: "Did you hunt that?"
Claude nodded.
"What a great boy. Your father will be proud of your bravery."
"Thank you uncle for the compliment. In fact, we were just lucky to kill this crocodile. To be honest, I was also very scared when facing the crocodile, but there was nothing we could do. If we didn't fight hard, we would be torn apart by it. Fortunately
We won..."
The patrol supervisor patted Claude on the shoulder with satisfaction: "Very good, you are brave but not arrogant, and your mind is still calm. Your future is limitless. By the way, what are you doing sitting here?"
Claude pointed to his left foot: "I hurt my foot. I want to call a carriage to go to the pharmacy. There were many people just now, so I'll sit here and wait for a while."
"It's quite serious. The swelling is so big. You should go to the pharmacy as soon as possible." The patrol supervisor looked at him and turned to call his subordinates: "Mark, Mark, go outside and drive our carriage in. You can send Claude to the pharmacy."
Pavilion.”
The subordinate named Mark agreed and ran outside. Their carriages were parked on the side of the road. It was a bit difficult to get in, and they had to drive aside the onlookers.
"Thank you, Uncle Thomas." Claude thanked him quickly.
The patrol supervisor waved his hand: "You're welcome. Your father and I are good friends and colleagues. Besides, you are a young warrior in our town. You have hunted such a big crocodile. It is their honor to do this small thing for you."
Of course, this honor refers to his subordinates.
At this time, Claude heard someone calling his name, and it was a very nice woman's voice.
He turned around and saw two beauties standing outside the gate of the pier. It was the older beauty who was calling his name just now, but he didn't recognize this beauty...
"Do you know them?" the patrol supervisor asked.
Claude was about to shake his head to show that he didn't know him, but when he saw the smaller beauty next to him, he remembered that her name was Kaifni, a junior high school girl. Erikson said that this Kaifni was the body he had before time travel.
The dream lover of the former owner, little Claude.
"I know him, he's my junior high school classmate." Claude said.
The patrol supervisor nodded, and the two beauties entered the pier.
The little beauty was a little shy and did not dare to look directly at Claude, but the big beauty was very generous and looked at Claude up and down.
"Good afternoon, Kai, Kaifani." Claude didn't know how to say hello, and saw the little beauty holding an empty rattan basket in her hand: "Oh, are you going to the pier to buy fish?"
Thinking back on it, Erikson said that Kaifani's family seemed not to be very well off. She often went to the market next to the pier to buy the small lake fish just caught by the fishermen, so that she could save some money.
"Well," the little beauty nodded, her face was a little red, but she did not forget to introduce the big beauty beside her: "This is my sister Catherine, we wanted to buy fish just now, and I heard that you hunted a big crocodile.
I just wanted to come in and have a look. But I couldn’t get through the door. When I saw you inside, my sister called your name..."
Claude smiled and nodded to the beautiful woman: "It's okay, the crocodile is over there, Vero, Boa and Ike are all there. You can go and take a look. Sorry, the carriage is here, I have to go to the pharmacy for treatment.
