The Geared Immortal

Chapter 574 - Medicine Challenge

Chapter 574

(Unedited)

The morning sun rose up from the horizon greeting the people with its warmth coupled with the gentle morning breeze of air. In this early morning, many people are already awake and are bustling around the city.

Right at this moment, a huge caravan is traveling down the rough road, and inside it are wounded soldiers who fought against the remaining forces of the bandits. It seems that although they were victorious at last, many were wounded among them.

At the back carriage, one can see a number of soldiers who lost their lives in this encounter. This heavy and death filled atmosphere among the soldiers made those who saw the traveling carriage move out of their way.

As it enters the city, the people who saw it began discussing among themselves the huge loss that the soldiers have suffered in this battle. Many already knew that the bandit group is not just a small group, but a whole society of bandits. It's like a small city filled with bandits and killers and this made the soldiers of the city suffered great loss even though they exterminated the bandit group.

Right at this moment, Shin Jiao has already arrived at the infirmary. This time, Guang Lai He is not with him as he told Shin Jiao that he is going to travel to another city to finish some personal business. And so after eating his breakfast he immediately went to the infirmary to act as an interim doctor.

He has already discussed this with Doctor Di and he agreed.

And so, after he arrives he began checking the patients and also upon seeing the condition of the infirmary decided to do some cleaning up along with the assistants (male nurses) in the infirmary.

After a thorough yet very quick clean up, the infirmary looks spotless and clean. Last night, Shin Jiao has done extracting ethanol from some of the components in his ring. He is also done with mixing the gun powder and has crafted around 50 rounds of bullets for his handgun. With the ammunition prepared, he is now confident that he could take down any enemy in this land.

But he didn't stop there. Although he lacks the time, he was still able to make 10 rounds of bullets for his sniper rifle.

Not long after Shin Jiao was done cleaning up the infirmary along with those who helped him, some of the doctors soon arrived.

Upon seeing the clean infirmary, the doctors were all taken aback. They didn't know what happened, but everything looks spotlessly clean and even their equipment has already been sterilized and prepared neatly.

The patients on the bed are also resting really well as the pungent smell in the large room seems to have diminished after the young doctor sprayed the strange liquid on the floor which made the room smell like morning dew.

Right now, Shin Jiao is talking with most of the assistants in the infirmary on how to use a spray bottle to disinfect the surroundings. Everyone around him has a look of astonishment and curiosity as they did not expect to discover such information. Shin Jiao told them about the bacteria that could accumulate in a dirty room especially with the many wounded people around them.

After a long explanation, everyone now understood the purpose of the liquid.

"What is happening here?" one of the doctors asked with curiosity after waiting for Shin Jiao to finish his instructions to the assistants.

The truth is the doctor wanted to interrupt them but upon hearing the explanation from the young crazy doctor which he recognizes from yesterday. He decided to listen.

"Ah, Doctor Qiao… Doctor Ji just helped us in cleaning the infirmary…"

"Oh, I see… Good… good… I like this atmosphere it makes us relax and could easily treat patients… I hope that this could be maintained." He said with a smile as he nodded towards Shin Jiao.

Doctor Lin Qiao is a close friend of Doctor Di. He and Doctor Di meet a few years back and Doctor Qiao considered Doctor Di as his role model. The two would always share medical knowledge and cases to find the best solution for their patients.

What he saw yesterday made him acknowledge the skill of the young doctor. Plus he is also curious about the pill he made the soldier eat yesterday.

It seems that the pill didn't make the soldier wound inflamed, plus he has observed the comfortable condition of the treated soldier hence he truly agrees with the young doctor's skill.

Suddenly, they were interrupted by one of the assistants rushing towards the building.

"They're here! The wounded soldiers are here!" the assistant shouted as he rushed inside while catching his breath.

Everyone suddenly showed a tense expression. They knew that they need to save these heroes who sacrifice themselves for the safety of the people.

"Everyone, we have to help and save many lives today. We must be fast and quick, I don't want any mistakes today!" shouted Doctor Qiao.

"Yes, doctor!" shouted all the assistants.

Shin Jiao on the side saw Doctor Qiao nods in his direction. Shin Jiao also nodded in agreement, he would at least help them in this circumstance.

Soon, a large number of soldiers were brought in. Some of them are not conscious anymore and many look weak. Shin Jiao can see different wounds on their bodies. What surprised him the most is the effective effect of the herbal powder that was put in the soldier's wound.

"Doctor, please attend to our captain first. He receives the most grievous wound." A soldier immediately requested after he escorted an unconscious man lying on a stretcher.

Shin Jiao can see a bloody bandage on the man's chest and thigh. From the looks of it, the soldier fainted due to the loss of blood. But since the wounds were closed, they were able to somewhat save his life till now.

But Shin Jiao can still see that the wounds are still bleeding even after this long time.

So he walked towards the man on the stretcher while putting on a face mask made of cloth.

"How long have he been wounded and turned unconscious?" he asked as he carefully touches the man's pulse.

He pretended to check the pulse but in truth began spreading his absolute sense in the man's body. Shin Jiao can immediately see that the captain is on the verge of death. However, since he is able to see it, he used his domain to control the body of the captain.

"Give me some needles quickly…" Shin Jiao said.

Then the assistant of the side immediately handed a bag of acupuncture needles.

Shin Jiao inserted the needles without letting go of the captain's wrist because if he does the man would surely die.

After stabilizing the captain's condition, Shin Jiao released his finger and immediately tore the bandage. He began checking the gaping wound with the herbal powder in it. He slowly cleaned the wound while explaining what he is doing to the assistants on the side.

No one stops him as they all just watch the process of him curing the captain.

Then he took a hooked needle and a thread from his small bag. With the needle and a thread on hand, he began sewing the gaping wound. While doing so he explains everything to the people around him so that they can understand the process.

Not long later, he is done with his work and stood up. He approaches Doctor Qiao and asked.

"The captain lost a lot of blood. Is there a way for him to recover his vitality?"

In fact, Shin Jiao wanted him to have a blood transfusion but he is not sure if these people have different beliefs or cultures about it. So he didn't put forth that idea.

"Yes, there is a way…" Doctor Qiao immediately walked to the medicine area and brought a box of dried herbal mixture.

"This is the mixture of herbs that Doctor Di discovers that can help with blood production."

When Shin Jiao saw the herbal mixture he immediately recognizes the smell.

"Nettle… Parsley… Dandelion… and dragon blood lingzhi…" those are the only herbs that Shin Jiao can determine, the rest he could not unless he touches them of course.

"Good, let's use that then."

Shin Jiao let Doctor Qiao do the rest as he walked to the other patients in the area.

Since there are only two of them in the infirmary yet, they immediately began to work separately.

Shin Jiao called two assistants to help him. While treating a patient's wound also began to explain to them what he is doing. Those who saw this showed jealousy in their eyes. But some could not help but tried to stretch their necks and listen while the young doctor is helping the soldiers with their wounds.

The assistants have been helping in the infirmary for so many years. And those who were able to stay in this place have a certain aptitude; hence they are able to immediately grasp the process though it is somewhat new to them.

After many hours of listening, Shin Jiao let them try disinfecting, cleaning, and sewing the light wounds of the patients.

As many people began working, the speed of healing the patients became faster.

Soon, a bunch of footsteps could be heard entering the infirmary. They saw the rest of the doctors entering the place in a hurry. They seem to have received the news that the wounded soldiers have already arrived.

But Shin Jiao squinted his eyes. This is because it has already been a couple of hours since the soldiers have arrived and he along with Doctor Qiao and the rest of the assistants have almost helped half of the soldiers in the infirmary. How could he not grow suspicious that these doctors are trying to be deliberately late?

However, he didn't care as his goal has been reached. And from now on, with his performance in here, he is sure that he is going to gain the trust of the people around him in this place.

Suddenly, a haughty voice interrupted his train of thought.

"Haha… this is good… We can compare our medical knowledge with this many patients… Doctor Ji."
