Plague Doctor

“You go and light the fire, you hold the patient down. ”

Dr. George Ray said to the woman and the three apprentices as he opened his medical box on a broken wooden chair next to him with some old surgical equipment, but not the kind of scalpel that Zhou Hao Rui was familiar with, etc., more like something from the Jianghu Lang.

The woman had rushed to find a basin containing groceries, put some firewood in it, lit it, and burned the fire to bear.

This was already a semi-disciplined street, and the space was rugged, and there was no ventilation at all, and now the fire together, the smoke, is even more intolerable.

The air stinks, cloudy and burning. Zhou Hao Rui feels he can't breathe. His heart and lungs are burning like...

Meanwhile, Dr. George-Ray took a knife out of the medical box and took it in his hand, like a scalpel, but said it was a butcher's knife. The knife was covered in blood stains and even a little rusty, but Dr. George-Ray, not at all concerned, took out another iron branding and gave it to the woman.

“What are you doing standing there? Hold him down. Don't let him move.” The doctor shouted and leaned over to the patient on the bed.

“This...” Zhou Hao Rui said, “Doctor, would it be better to wash and disinfect the knife first? ”

Although he is not a medical practitioner, this is common sense...

Just in this day and age, medieval.

“What are you talking about?” Dr. George-Ray scolded, "Hurry up, the patient will lose his chance because of your hesitations.” The doctor looked over at the fire pit, "and burned my iron. ”

The woman hastily did it again, holding the iron branding to the fire basin and gradually burning red, the two children probed and looked beside the door.

Zhou Hao Rui looked cold in his heart and thought of Dr. George Ray's intention...

“Hurry!" the doctor shouted again. Jiang and Yang Liu Qingqing pressed the patient's upper body in the bed in front of him and tried to avoid the broken skin. Zhou Hao Rui also had to press the man's feet in front of him.

Dr. George-Ray moved quickly and calmly on his hands without hesitation, leaning over with a knife and cutting it under a crumbling putrid skin on the man's left shoulder. The mouth mask covered the doctor's face, but it must be very cold.

“Ah…” the man screamed painfully from time to time, even though he was already extremely weak.

Men did not struggle very hard, Zhou Hao Rui pressed the man's feet hands and his heart was tightening.

Old Jiang and Yang Liu Qingqing's eyes were also intolerant.

Zhou Hao Rui watched a large piece of the patient's broken skin cut off. Dr. George Ray threw the skin directly onto the ground and shouted: "Iron branding!” The woman shook the iron branding from the fire basin and passed it over, and as soon as Dr. George Ray took it, he pressed the burning iron down onto the patient's left shoulder, suddenly having a nourishing burning sound.

The screaming noise of the man's pain echoed through the room, and it also spread out, silencing this noisy semi-urban alley.

Leaning on the door, the two children watched as their father was treated so, one frightened and the other tears streamed.

Zhou Hao Rui couldn't help but take a deep breath. Medieval medicine...

He suddenly understood why Dr. Birdmouth was disgusted and feared by the public at the time.

“Oh my...” Yang Liu Qingqing muttered silently, "Dr. George Ray, this is too hard to live, it's more expensive, it's more expensive. ”

“If you want gold, you have to let the man who gave you it live.” Dr George-Ray said, branding the iron back to the woman so that she could continue to burn it, and cutting it with a scalpel to the man's right shoulder with a broken wound, immediately blurred again. Soon, the iron branding fell again and the screaming exploded again.

Zhou Hao Rui went from cold sweat all over his head to cold sweat all over his body. His ears buzzed. The whole person became numb and sour. He couldn't stand it...

This cruel and strange scene in front of him, like hanging him, made him start to wonder if he was a good dragon...

Ginger, the oldest of the three, had the most stable pressure on his hands.

Once Dr. George Ray had treated the skin, which had ruptured pus, he proceeded to deal with the unruptured pus in the patient's chest. The technique was no different. He cut it off directly with a scalpel, and the pus and blood flowed without washing and bandaging. Once again, the doctor raised the burning iron branding.

Drop to the wound, Zu!

The man in the bed fainted in pain after another harsh yell, and there was no sound.

“Doctor, doctor, my husband...” The woman said nervously, “Is he still alive...”

Dr. George Ray looked into the patient's nose and said, "He's alive, and it's up to him to wake up. ”

Women cry and pray to God.

Dr George-Ray said nothing more and continued to cut and burn the other pus and crushed skin on the man once and for all to stop the bleeding.

This is not only a torment for patients, patients' wives and children. It is also a torment for Zhou Hao Rui and the three of them. Old Jiang may be supported by aspirations for an unusual life. Yang Liu Qingqing may be dependent on gold, while Zhou Hao Rui does not know what he is relying on...

Perhaps he had already lost all his strength, but only because the patient had lost his struggle, he had not realized it himself.

After completing the patient's entire body, Dr. George Ray wiped the scalpel toward the rag and put it back in the infirmary, followed by the iron branding.

“Your husband's surgery has been completed.” The doctor said to the poor woman, "If he wakes up and feeds him some water, I'll come back tomorrow. ”

Come on, in the midst of women's overwhelming gratitude and suspicion, Dr. George Ray walked outside with his medical box and cane, "Go, there are other patients here. ”

The three men followed the doctor back to the alley outside, and the murmur broke out again, and someone shouted: "They just killed again! They kill people, they only kill people, and then they take the gold, and that's what Doctor does, he kills people for money! ”

Dr. George-Ray looked at the three apprentices and seemed to see their faces under the mouth mask.

“You have to get used to it.” The doctor sighs, "because you're going to go through a lot of grinding, and if you can't, you're going to die. ”

Zhou Hao Rui heard this and suddenly creeped...

Old Jiang and Yang Liu Qingqing are also looking at the face of this bird mouth doctor.

Zhou Hao Rui saw the particularly weird bird mouth mask in the uncovered eye orbit. The left eye was shattered and the right eye was pitch-black.

It was so dark, they seemed to have seen it in the crow's eyes.
