C5 – “Ignorant” Ancients

Shan knelt down once more and requested nervously, “Younger grasp, didn’t I scare you?”

Tang Yue blinked and questioned, “What does this previous man need from me if I’m afraid? Does he count on me to die to apologize?”

He swiftly shook his head. “Don’t be afraid. Evil folks need to be punished. Go and help. Full the duty rapidly and relaxation.”

“Alright.” He positioned a bundle of straw over Tang Yue’s physique and swiftly departed the room along with his knife.

The state of affairs initially favored the palanquin man, however with Shan’s help, issues grew to become much more easy. Tang Yue clutched the knife that he had used to slaughter the fish and felt a craving for martial arts stir inside him.

China’s martial arts have been as soon as huge and profound, however by the twenty first century, they’d primarily dwindled away.

Naturally, their martial arts weren’t as awe-inspiring as they have been depicted in wuxia dramas. They couldn’t leap over rooftops nor make the most of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, however every motion was sleek and potent.

After practically an hour, the black-clad man might not endure. Solely a handful of individuals remained and struggled to carry on. With a whistle, they deserted the corpses and fled.

“Don’t chase them anymore.” A mild and impartial voice emanated from the sedan chair.

Tang Yue was a bit bowled over. Based mostly on the voice, the person contained in the sedan chair appeared to be a baby. Thus, he was apprehensive that one thing was amiss with the pair of ft he had noticed.

The group combat had ended, and Tang Yue rose to his ft, stretching his legs and arms earlier than continuing to help with cleansing up the aftermath.

On the palanquin man’s aspect, greater than twelve guards had perished within the battle. Two have been in important situation, whereas 5 had sustained minor accidents.

Tang Yue’s preliminary examination was centered on the 2 guards who have been severely wounded. Regrettably, he shook his head, saying, “Their ribs are shattered and have punctured their lungs. It’s hopeless.”

Though the sort of damage may very well be handled with surgical procedure in up to date occasions, Tang Yue acknowledged that there was nothing he might do of their present setting.

The room fell silent. The folks current knew what the end result can be, but nobody pleaded with Tang Yue to save lots of them.

One other affected person with severe accidents had a deep stab wound to their stomach, which had already prompted inner organ harm and couldn’t be salvaged.

The 5 sufferers with minor accidents weren’t as lucky as they appeared. Probably the most extreme of the group had a fracture. In an period the place even the slightest ailment might show deadly, a fracture was already thought of a grave damage.

Tang Yue used a blade to slit open the injured man’s pant leg, exposing his damaged calf. He touched it gently and mentioned, “It’s only a fracture. You’ll be advantageous.”

Everybody was speechless. “Positive?” they thought.

Tang Yue contemplated to himself that if it have been a comminuted fracture, it might be a lot more durable to deal with below the present situations.

“Can somebody fetch me some skinny firewood? Ensure it’s clear, lower it evenly, and produce me a clear fabric. Don’t take too lengthy, and make sure you boil every thing in sizzling water,” Tang Yue instructed.

Everybody was surprised, watching because the younger grasp handled the injured man’s wounds. Even many seasoned physicians would hesitate to aim such a feat upon witnessing the severity of the person’s damaged bones.

A serene voice emerged from the sedan chair, commanding everybody’s consideration.

Glancing again on the palanquin, Tang Yue murmured, “That will need to have break the bank. His males are so badly injured they’ll’t even step out to examine.”

Tang Yue secured the fractured wooden onto the affected person’s bones with material, advising him to not transfer or contact water for a month. He couldn’t pay money for plaster but, so this was the very best he might do for now.

For the opposite wounds, Tang Yue solely wanted to use the powder and wrap them up with fabric.

Watching the haphazardly certain fabric, Tang Yue couldn’t resist and commenced meticulously rebandaging every wound, even tying a playful bow. “There you go, in a number of days, you’ll be again in your ft.”

The husky man who had spoken to him distributed knives to the black-clothed males, then walked as much as Tang Yue brandishing a bloody knife. “You’re a medical disciple, younger sir? Your bandaging abilities are spectacular. How lengthy have you ever been finding out?”

Tang Yue raised two fingers, indicating that he had been finding out for twenty years since he began faculty at nineteen, and had continued for one more twenty years since his dying.

“You have to be a genius to realize such proficiency in two years,” the brawny man praised Tang Yue with out restraint.

Tang Yue’s expression tightened, and he let loose a snort however avoided responding. He inwardly cursed the traditional folks for his or her lack of expertise.

In search of shelter from the rain, Tang Yue hurried below the roof and proceeded to scrub his arms. The brawny man who had simply complimented him adopted him and inquired, “Who’s your Grasp, younger sir? With simply two years of studying, your abilities are already exceptional. Grasp Ling is certain to treat you as a divine physician!”

Tang Yue didn’t have to look into the person’s eyes to discern his motive. It appeared that the individual within the sedan was gravely unwell. Jutting his chin out, he replied with satisfaction, “Self-taught!”

“This will’t be attainable!” The burly man was skeptical. Observing Tang Yue’s tattered apparel and slender construct, and with solely an aged servant accompanying him, he was satisfied that Tang Yue didn’t hail from an prosperous background. How might somebody from such a household possess the flexibility to self-teach?

Practitioners of medication on this world have been usually raised by aristocratic households who spent a substantial quantity of assets and funds to teach them.
