Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Chapter 92 Learning Basic Hemostasis

Yang Jianwu rubbed the model's neck with his hand. Well, it'll be a permanent memento. "It's okay. People who have never seen a model before will have some reaction the first time they see one. I remember when Ziping first came to learn, she saw the internal organs of this model and vomited outside for almost fifteen minutes."

"Won't that affect your teaching...?" The model is what Xiao Wu'er uses to teach others. If he changes anything and causes others to learn incorrect knowledge, it would be a huge sin.

Yang Jianwu glanced at the injured area and said, "Fortunately, most of the acupoints around the neck are on the back of the neck, so it won't be a big problem here."

"That's good." Mo Ye felt a little relieved, then glanced down and noticed the various thin metal sheets on the tray. "What are these?"

Yang Jianwu carefully picked up a razor blade and made a slicing motion in her hand. "A surgical blade, used for surgery."

Mo Ye remembered that Yang Jianwu had mentioned a cesarean section, which involved cutting open the abdomen. "This knife... is it used to cut open the abdomen?"

"What you see now is the blade, and this is the handle. They need to be attached together for use. Some blades are also directly attached to the handle." Yang Jianwu picked up a needle holder and attached the blade to the handle, demonstrating to Mo Ye.

"Not just the abdomen, but any area where surgery involves cutting with a knife requires them." Pointing to several round-headed blades, "These are used to cut skin and flesh."

Mo Ye picked up a razor blade, and Yang Jianwu quickly reminded him, "Brother Ye, be careful, the scalpel blade is very sharp."

Mo Ye smiled back, held the blade up to the light for a moment, and asked, "What material is the blade made of? I don't think I've ever seen it before."

"There are many types of materials used for surgical blades, such as pure titanium, titanium alloy, stainless steel, or carbon steel. Blades made from these materials are lightweight and durable."

Mo Ye considered himself quite knowledgeable, but upon hearing some unfamiliar materials, he began to doubt his own knowledge for the first time. Many things Yang Jianwu was saying were beyond his comprehension. However, out of politeness, he was too embarrassed to ask too many questions. "Could this kind of material be used in military weapons?"

"You could try steel, or refined iron, but it's very difficult to smelt. To make steel, you first need to smelt iron, then remove impurities and purify it. The process is very complicated."

"There really is refined iron? I always thought it was just a rumor, but it turns out it really exists!"

Mo Ye picked up the No. 11 blade again. "Where do you cut with this kind of blade that has a sharper tip?"

"Cut blood vessels, nerves, and tissues around the heart."

"Blood vessels? Nerves? Are these all located in the human body?"

“Yes, there are many tiny tubes in the human body, and blood flows through these tubes.” Yang Jianwu pointed to the veins on the back of her hand, and worried that Mo Ye wouldn’t understand, so she even traced a line along the veins. “See this green line? That’s a blood vessel. There are many such tubes in the flesh of the human body. When the body is injured, blood will flow out along the blood vessels. If the bleeding is not stopped in time, it can easily lead to death.”

Yang Jianwu picked up a hemostat from the tray next to her. "This is a hemostat. It can be used to clamp blood vessels during surgery. The hemostat here works on the same principle. This way, the blood won't keep flowing, and the person won't have any problems due to excessive blood loss. This is also the main reason why surgery can be performed to remove the fetus through laparotomy and the person can survive."

"Soldiers often suffer from external injuries during wartime. Timely hemostasis can increase the chances of survival. In the absence of hemostatic forceps or clamps, pressure can be applied. I guess you used to cover your wounds when you were injured. The correct method is to cover the wound while applying some pressure. If there is severe bleeding in the limbs, find a rope and tie it above the wound. Whether you apply pressure or tie it with a strap, it should not be left on for too long. Getting it treated as soon as possible is the best solution."

Mo Ye had only thought Yang Jianwu's medical skills were amazing, but he didn't know that there were so many subtle details about the human body. No wonder the Ghost Doctor wanted to become her apprentice. Now, after hearing this, he felt an urge to learn medicine.

Yang Jianwu sorted all the equipment and put it back in its place. "You're not a doctor, so you won't remember anything even if I explain it all. Just listen to it as basic first aid knowledge."

"Yes, what you said is very useful. I'll have to have the army doctor teach it to the soldiers later."

"This is possible, and very necessary."

Neither of them could have imagined that their conversation today would save the lives of many soldiers on the battlefield later on.

"It's getting late. Brother Ye, are you going back to Huashuiyuefang or spending the night at the City Lord's Mansion?"

The Cloud City Lord's Mansion, where the three kingdoms vied for connections, was a place outsiders coveted. How could they possibly let such an opportunity slip by? "Let's stay at the City Lord's Mansion. When we return to the capital, I will ask my father for a decree to grant us a marriage. You are my queen, so it's only natural for you to live in your own wife's home."

"Ahem~ Brother Ye, you're getting into character too fast, I can't keep up..." Yang Jianwu said, then felt something was off. "Putting aside the characters in the play, we're friends. If you want to stay at the City Lord's Mansion, I'll agree. There's no need to be so ambiguous."

Mo Ye chuckled inwardly. Ambiguous? So Xiao Wu'er is really shy! One of the tips for winning a wife: Women are afraid of being flirted with three times, so flirt with her more often!

The beds in the city lord's mansion are soft and comfortable. The roofs are insulated, and there is a water-powered fan at the window. The fan blades turn and blow air in. If it is still hot, you can put a bowl of ice in front of the fan and feel the cool breeze. Even if it is unbearably hot outside, it is cool and comfortable inside.

Mo Ye looked around the room. Every part was exquisitely designed, showing that a lot of thought had been put into it. Anyone would probably want to stay here permanently.

Yang Jianwu sent someone to Huashuiyuefang to report that she was safe. Returning to her dormitory, she didn't rush to rest. Instead, she slipped into her spatial dimension. The medical points on the control panel were 108; performing a cesarean section on Princess Qi had only increased them by 80… Looking at the motorcycle in the right-hand hall… when would she finally get it… Being able to only see it, not touch it, was the most agonizing part…

The next day, the sun shone brightly. Good weather always brings a good mood. After having breakfast, the two prepared to return to Huashuiyuefang. They left through the back door and strolled together on the streets of Yunzhi, like lovers.

"The prosperity of Yunzhi is no less than that of the capital city."

"Commerce is the lifeblood of a town. Just by looking at the prosperity of the streets, you can tell that most people are living a comfortable life."

"Little Wu'er, where did you learn all this from?"

In fact, Mo Ye had always been curious about how General Yang, a military officer whose academic achievements were not top-notch, could have taught Yang Jianwu to be so intelligent.

Yunzhi has been under construction for seven or eight years. Such a large city requires an extremely high amount of manpower and resources. This means that Yang Jianwu was already very wealthy before Yunzhi was built, when she was only six or seven years old! How could a six or seven-year-old child be so rich!

It's clear from our interactions over this period that Yang Jianwu is quite familiar with military affairs, and General Yang also hopes that his daughter can teach more in the military. In other words, General Yang wants to learn from Yang Jianwu.

Some things are terrifying when you think about them closely, and once you have questions, you really want to find the answers.
