Chapter 32 A Gamble

Accompanied by the sudden crying in the middle of the night, a lantern came this way. It was the women who were on duty at night and came and banged on the door.

"...If a person is dying, he should be carried out as soon as possible, but he cannot die here." A woman's voice sounded outside, "Mr. Zhao, you are an old man too, do you still understand this rule?"

The Ahaoniang in the room put her hand to her mouth to muffle her cries.

"Get out, get out, get out." Qi Yue rushed out of the house in a few steps, stood on the porch and shouted loudly, "Who will die? In the middle of the night, don't you also want to try some family skills?"

There was silence outside the door, and then a sneer.

"Since that's the case, it's an old slave who is too busy. Madam, please do as you please." The woman said calmly.

The women who were on duty at night turned and left.

Qi Yue stood in the yard and couldn't help trembling all over. She turned around and heard Ahaoniang's suppressed and heartbreaking cries from inside the house.

"Young Madam..." Ah Hao stumbled out of the house.

"Go and ask a doctor, ask the best doctor..." Qi Yue looked at her and said, "It doesn't mean that surgery in ancient times was also very developed, surgery also existed, and we will definitely find a doctor who can treat this kind of injury...

.”

Ah Hao burst into tears and knelt down to her.

"Please save Ah Hao..." She kowtowed and said, "No matter who you are, as long as you save Ah Hao, Ah Ru is willing to risk your life..."

Qi Yue was stunned by what she said.

"You..." She smiled bitterly.

"Please, please, no matter you are a human or a ghost, you have great supernatural powers. Please save Ahao. Aru is willing to give your life to you..." Aru just kowtowed and cried.

"I..." Qi Yue looked at her and smiled bitterly, knowing that she was not a fool and could not tell whether she was her master, "It's not that I don't save, but... it's that I can't save... I can't save anything.

Nothing...except these hands, nothing..."

"What do you want? What do you want? Aru will find it for you even if you die." Aru raised his head and knelt down for a few steps and said with expectation on his face.

Qi Yue looked at her and shook her head.

"You can't find what I want," she said.

Aru burst into tears and hit her head on the ground. Her forehead was already stained with blood, and she just murmured, please, please, please over and over again.

Qi Yue bit her lower lip, feeling extremely anxious. She couldn't help but look up at the dark night sky, a night sky without any light pollution caused by modern civilization.

"...Dad, why do you want me to go to the countryside? There is nothing here, and they are still using the equipment that our hospital has eliminated."

"Girl, don't you think the equipment we use is too good?"

"Dad, isn't it a good thing to have good medical equipment? This can diagnose the disease quickly and accurately and reduce the pain of patients. Dad, you don't want to argue with me whether scientific and technological progress is good or bad, do you?"

"Haha, girl, have you ever thought about how you would treat diseases and save people without these advanced equipment?"

"Dad, are you kidding? You are just messing around."

"Dad, I know what you mean..." Qi Yue murmured while looking at the night sky.

She turned around and saw Aru still kowtowing.

"Aru, get up." Qi Yue stepped forward to help her up.

A'ru looked at her, her mind already a little distracted.

"I'll try, but I can't guarantee that I can save her." Qi Yue gritted her teeth and said.

Aru's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Thank you, thank you." She kowtowed again.

"I can't do it alone and I need your help." Qi Yue supported her, "Time is running out and we have a lot to do."

"Whatever you want Aru to do, Aru will do it." Aru nodded and said with tears.

"Okay." Qi Yue patted her, "Get up, let's go into the house."

Ahaoniang, who was in a state of distraught in the room, looked even more frightened after hearing Qi Yue's words.

"You...what did you say?" she asked in disbelief, stammering, "You want to cut open Ah Hao's belly?"

Ah Hao also woke up, but seemed to be unconscious, moaning mechanically.

Ah Ru cleaned up the vomit, Qi Yue opened the medicine box.

"... long needle... suture needle. needle holder... scalpel. hemostat... great arterial hemostat... suture... anesthesia... procaine... vecuronium, imidazole,

Propofol. That's great... Fortunately, I have all of them..." She put out the instruments one by one and said with joy on her face. When she heard Ah Hao Niang's question, she turned her head, "Ah Hao has a closed abdominal injury.

That is to say, the doctor just said that the internal organs were ruptured and bleeding. The blood accumulated in the stomach... If the blood is not drained and the wound is stitched as soon as possible, he will die..."

"But...but if you open up a person's belly, can you still live?" Ah Hao Niang cried. Then she knelt down and kowtowed, "Young Madam, for the sake of Ah Hao and you for so many years, please leave her a

A whole corpse..."

Qi Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and Aru was busy helping and comforting Ahaoniang.

Qi Yue stopped for a moment, said nothing, and picked up the syringe.

"I'll do an abdominal puncture on Ah Hao first. If blood comes out, it will prove what I said." She said.

"Puncture...Puncture?" Ahaoniang couldn't understand it at all.

Qi Yue stretched out her hand to touch the Ahao's belly. She was breathing rapidly and sweating on her forehead. She repeatedly checked whether the spleen was swollen, and there was no B-ultrasound, CT ultrasound, etc. She could not diagnose which visceral trauma it was. Although abdominal puncture was simple,

But it is also risky. When the spleen is enlarged in the body, it is easy to stab it, and the treatment will immediately become fatal...

She had seen one case with her own eyes.

"Young Madam." Aru looked at her and called out nervously.

Qi Yue took back his god.

"Hands, hands, there is no examination equipment, I have hands, I have experience, feel it..." She murmured, slowly probing Ahao's abdomen, and finally stopped, "It's okay, there is no swelling.

Big, right here..."

As he spoke, he used his hand to sterilize and anesthetize neatly, and with Ahaoniang's scream, Qi Yue inserted the syringe.

"Lamp." Qi Yue shouted.

Ah Ru raised the lamp tremblingly, and as Ah Hao groaned, bright red blood appeared in the strange syringe...

"Blood!" Aru couldn't help shouting anymore.

"There is blood, there is blood. Sure enough, the internal organs are ruptured..." Qi Yue breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't expect that in this situation where she relied entirely on people and no equipment, a small puncture made her body stiff. She couldn't help it.

He stretched out his hand and scratched his head, "But whether it is a single injury to the liver, kidney, pancreas, gastrointestinal tract, or multiple injuries, the only way to do it is through laparotomy..."

"Aru, cut a square slit in each of the white clothes I found just now, boil the rest, cut it into small pieces, and use it as gauze. In addition, bring over the wine for that day, and,

Make a charcoal fire..." She ordered one by one.

Aru tried hard to remember and kept nodding.

"Auntie, go find the lamps and light all the lamps you can." She turned her head and said to Ahaoniang.

Ah Hao's mother looked frightened and was speechless.

"Are you...are you...really a ghost...a ghost fairy who came back from the Palace of Hell?" She asked with her eyes wide open and stammering, holding her chest.

Qi Yue looked at her in shock, dumbfounded.

"Auntie, please hurry up." She couldn't answer, she just said.

Ah Hao's mother turned around and ran out in a panic.

Half a bottle of wine was soaked in gauze, half a bottle of wine was heated and sprinkled on the bedside, and Ah Hao was already laid flat on the bed.

"The hot salt water you want..." Aru came in with a basin of water.

"I want some water mixed with salt and sugar. The ratio is one liter of water plus two spoons of salt and ten spoons of sugar. Put it in this wine bottle for later use..." Qi Yue said as he inhaled the anesthetic into the syringe.

"Yes." Aru nodded and said, took the bottle and turned around and went out.

Ah Hao's mother has been standing aside, and all the lamps in the Qiutong courtyard have been found, hung and placed beside the bed.

"Young Madam...am I going to die..." Ah Hao looked at Qi Yue and said weakly.

"No, Ah Hao, don't be afraid. There is a hole in your stomach. I will give you an anesthetic. After you sleep, I will sew it up and it will be fine." Qi Yue said with a smile.

Her head and face were covered, only her eyes were exposed, and the smile in her eyes fell on Ah Hao, who also smiled weakly.

"Okay, madam, thank you." she said.

These words almost made Qi Yue's tears well up again.

"You're welcome. Come on, I'll give you an anesthetic. It hurts a little. I'm so brave and not afraid," she said.

"Well, Ah Hao is not afraid." Ah Hao murmured.

"What is this doing?" Ah Hao's mother asked tremblingly as she watched the strange tool pierce her daughter's arm and felt her thighs twist.

Qi Yue finished the injection and looked at her.

"Auntie, I'm going to have an operation soon, so please go out first," she said.

"Why?" Ah Hao's mother asked with a horrified look on her face, "I...I..."

"First, because the disinfection is not good, the place itself is not clean, so one less person means one less infection. Besides, you will be scared..." Qi Yue looked at her and said seriously.

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, please let me look at her, look at her. When a person dies, his relatives are no longer around him. If he doesn't take a breath, he will not be able to reach the end of the world and become a lonely ghost..." Ah

The good mother cried and knelt on the ground.

After all, she still didn't trust herself. Qi Yue smiled bitterly. Not to mention that others didn't trust her. Even she didn't trust herself. An abdominal opening was an open abdomen. After the abdominal opening, she didn't know the extent of the damage. It was an excision.

Or repair it? After that, can it survive the infection?

She exhaled heavily.

"Okay, then you are here, go to my house, find some clean clothes to wear, and then cover your head and mouth like me." Qi Yue said, "Also, no matter what you see in a while,

Nothing can interfere with me."

Ahaoniang nodded in panic, wiped her tears and went out.

No monitor, no assistant, no anesthesiologist, nothing.

Qi Yue stood in front of the bed, looking at Ah Hao who had been anesthetized under the sheet made of white cloth. Beside her were Ah Ru and Ah Hao's mother who had wrapped their heads and faces with the same cloth, revealing their eyes filled with tears.

Fear and fear.

"Then, let's get started." Qi Yue took a deep breath and said, as if she was telling Aru and Ahaoniang, as well as herself.

After saying these words, she seemed to have returned to her modern hospital operating room, surrounded by sophisticated instruments and assistant nurses with clear division of labor. Everyone responded in unison, "Let's start."

The scalpel cut across the peritoneum and blood seeped out. Aru and Ahaoniang both exclaimed in surprise. Qi Yue turned a deaf ear to it. Her movements were steady, skillful and smooth, although she was a little hesitant due to the lack of assistants to pull her. As the incision became more and more painful,

The louder it got, Ahaoniang's screams turned into hoarse cries. She huddled together and couldn't control herself. Finally, she fainted in front of the bed with a pop. Aru was no better, her whole body was shaking with fear.

It's like sifting chaff.

Under the light, looking at the open belly and the gauze soaked in blood that was constantly being piled in the basin, the smell of blood hit her nostrils. Aru felt that her heartbeat had stopped. She could no longer scream and just stared blankly.

He looked at Qi Yue and saw her hands stroking around Ahao's belly and muttering something in her mouth.

"...The liver is fine...the esophagus is fine...the spleen...it is indeed the spleen..."

Then he saw Qi Yue lowering her body and holding a strange organ...

Aru finally couldn't hold it any longer and turned around to vomit.

Qi Yue turned a blind eye to all of this. Her mind was completely occupied with the familiar surgical procedures. The sweat on her forehead kept dripping. She just blinked to relieve it. She used red-hot needles to stop the bleeding, suturing, rinsing with saline, and absorbing the gauze.

…..

The night was very dark, and the lamps in the Qiutong Courtyard swayed in response to the lamps in the hands of the woman who occasionally patrolled the night. However, the courtyard further away was brightly lit, and the singing, dancing, and banquet was going on in the middle of the night, and even the maids and women who came in and out looked at each other.

With the feeling of spring, in the middle of the courtyard, the orchid gifted by the royal family was spinning rapidly, shattering the lights and shadows in the courtyard, causing chaos in the main hall and the laughter under the eaves. (To be continued)
