199: Chapter 199 Dr. Xu
Xu Zhixia re-zipped the canvas bag.
"The boundaries were drawn by you."
"Whether I recognize it or not is my business."
This sentence made the Short-haired Bodyguard's face even uglier.
A female doctor, on the beach, in front of three bodyguards and an old mercenary, spoke to this extent.
If it were any other woman, she would have been scared limp long ago.
But she didn't dodge, not even taking a single step back.
"Dr. Xu."
"Speak."
"Have you ever thought that even if you save him, he might not appreciate you?"
"I don't collect appreciation."
"That kid is not a good person."
"Neither is Yang Ningcong."
The few women under the shed buried their heads even lower.
The Short-haired Bodyguard couldn't help saying, "Dr. Xu, that goes too far."
Xu Zhixia looked at him, "How is that too far?"
The Short-haired Bodyguard's lips moved, but he didn't dare continue.
What kind of virtue Yang Ningcong had, those of them who followed him closely knew best.
Among those things on the yacht, there were very few that could be brought to the table to talk about.
Wang Laoliu didn't get angry because of these words.
Instead, he nodded.
"Fine."
"Since things have been said to this extent, it saves trouble."
Wang Laoliu looked into her eyes.
"What if I don't let you go?"
As soon as these words came out, even the breathing under the shed became lighter.
The Short-haired Bodyguard subconsciously moved forward half a step, then stopped.
Wang Laoliu didn't have a gun on him.
But no one really regarded him as a toothless dog.
If he wanted to make a move, there were very few people on the beach who could stop him.
Xu Zhixia hung the shoulder strap properly, freeing up both hands.
"Then there are two choices."
Wang Laoliu didn't speak; Xu Zhixia raised her right hand and pointed at her own neck.
"Either I take the medicine up."
"Save the person up there."
"By the way, debride, disinfect, and give injections to Yang Ningcong, making sure he doesn't rot because of a slash."
She pointed again at the empty position at Wang Laoliu's waist.
"Either you find a knife now and finish me off."
"Leave the medicine here."
"Regardless of whether Yang Ningcong lives or dies."
There was no sound on the beach.
The Short-haired Bodyguard's Adam's apple rolled, and Wang Laoliu stared at her for a few seconds.
The waves slapped up and then retreated.
After a while, Wang Laoliu smiled.
This time he smiled a bit more genuinely than just now.
"Dr. Xu, you really aren't suited to be a private doctor for a rich second generation."
Xu Zhixia said, "I've thought so too."
"Then why did you take it?"
"An annual salary of three million, I couldn't resist the temptation..."
Wang Laoliu was stunned for a moment.
"Everyone is just working for a living."
He raised his hand, pressed the box lid down a bit, without locking it shut.
"I won't make things difficult for you."
The Short-haired Bodyguard was anxious, "Laoliu!"
Wang Laoliu didn't even look at him.
"Shut up."
The Short-haired Bodyguard swallowed the second half of his sentence.
Wang Laoliu said to Xu Zhixia, "Take the medicine up."
"Decide who to save yourself."
"But please also bring a message, Dr. Xu."
Xu Zhixia stopped her feet.
Wang Laoliu looked toward the upper part of the slope, where only the rock wall and weeds could be seen, and the people inside the cave could not be seen.
"The signal flare has been fired."
"The Yang Family's people and the search and rescue people will come soon."
He withdrew his gaze.
"If the intern up there wants to leave this island alive, he must ensure Young Master Yang is safe and sound."
"Not a single hair can be missing."
Holding the medicine bag, Xu Zhixia walked toward the slope. After taking two steps, she turned back and glanced at Wang Laoliu.
"I suggest you delete the hair part."
Wang Laoliu didn't react in time.
Xu Zhixia said, "Just now when Yang Ningcong was dragged up, the back of his head rubbed off a lot against the rocks."
Someone under the shed couldn't help laughing again.
The Short-haired Bodyguard turned his face to the side.
Wang Laoliu was silent for half a second, then smiled too.
"Then change it to his life; his life must remain."
Xu Zhixia nodded, "This sentence can be brought."
When Xu Zhixia returned to the cave entrance, the canvas bag was pressed against her shoulder, and her shoe soles were stained with a layer of wet sand.
Lin Fan stood behind the rock wall, not asking what she said down below.
As long as she could come up and the medicine could come up, that was enough.
When Yang Ningcong saw that medicine bag, his whole person came back to life halfway.
With a cloth stuffed in his mouth, he made a series of muffled noises, stretched his neck forward, and rolled his eyeballs hard toward Xu Zhixia.
"Wu... Wuwu!"
The meaning was not hard to guess.
Treat me first.
Xu Zhixia walked past him without even stopping.
Yang Ningcong was stunned.
He "wu"ed twice more.
Xu Zhixia squatted down beside Zhou Kai, opened the canvas bag, and spread out the things one by one.
Iodophor, normal saline, gauze, cotton swabs, syringes, no antitoxin serum, but the antibiotics were complete. She placed the tetanus antitoxin separately aside.
Seeing this setup, Zhou Kai swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Xu Zhixia first moistened it bit by bit with normal saline, then picked out the rotted grass leaves.
Zhou Kai could still grit his teeth at first.
By the third time, his whole body jerked upward.
"Ah... It hurts...!"
Xu Zhixia didn't even raise her head, "Don't move."
"I'll try my best!"
"If there were anesthetics, I'd want to give them to you too."
Xu Zhixia debrided quickly.
She first scraped off a little of the necrotic skin and flesh around the incision, and repeatedly washed it with iodophor.
The edges of the wound were swollen and shiny, the skin color was wrong, and purple-black was expanding outward.
She looked for a few seconds, changed to a clean cotton swab, and pressed the outer side of the calf.
Zhou Kai's throat became hoarse from the pain.
"Do you have any feeling here?"
"Yes."
"What about the instep?"
"Numb."
"Move your toes again."
Zhou Kai moved them twice, with a very small range of motion.
Xu Zhixia unpacked the antibiotic capsules and asked Song Ya to get water.
"Swallow amoxicillin first, don't mix cephalosporins for now. Were you allergic to penicillin before?"
Zhou Kai panted, "I don't remember being allergic."
"Rashes, swollen throat, out of breath, any of that?"
"No."
"Then take it."
Song Ya handed the water over, and Zhou Kai tilted his head back and swallowed the medicine.
Xu Zhixia picked up the tetanus antitoxin again.
Her movements paused, and she turned to look at Lin Fan.
"There are no conditions for a skin test."
Lin Fan asked, "How big is the risk?"
"There will be allergies, and in severe cases, shock. After going into shock, the conditions to save him are low, but with this kind of open wound, contaminated by muddy water, and cut by a knife and burned by fire, not getting it also carries risks."
Xu Zhixia looked at Zhou Kai, "You have the right to choose. Take it, or don't take it."
Zhou Kai looked at his own leg, then looked at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan didn't make the decision for him.
Zhou Kai was silent for a few seconds, "Just give it. It's already in this state."
Xu Zhixia nodded, drew the medicine, expelled the air, and gave the injection.
When the needle entered the subcutaneous tissue, Zhou Kai didn't make a sound instead. It had hurt too much before, so this time didn't have much novelty.
Ten minutes later, he didn't show any obvious reaction.
Only then did Xu Zhixia rebandage.
The gauze was wrapped around layer by layer, and finally fixed on the outer side of the calf.
She didn't wrap it too tightly, leaving room to observe blood circulation.
After doing this, her hands were covered with blood and the color of iodophor.
"His life is considered saved for the time being."
Xu Zhixia put the scissors back into the bag, "The leg..."
