After tidying up the medicinal materials and knives, Ying Bao put on the mask specially made for her by Auntie, washed her hands and cut the sores of the patients.

The second senior brother also wore a mask, washed his hands and helped.

The patient took a bath with the help of his wife, and his hair was washed with soap and dried.

Then he lay down on the bamboo bed and wrapped his hair in a cloth to prevent it from falling down and getting in the way.

With an expressionless expression, Ying Bao poured some liquor on his back, signaled his wife and brother to hold down his hands and feet, and then used a knife to open the sores.

The patient shivered in pain and clenched the cloth tightly with his teeth.

It was also the first time that Ying Bao saw the inside of a back gangrene. It was like a honeycomb, with maggots crawling inside, but she was disgusted.

Enduring the nausea, he pinched out the maggots one by one with tweezers and put them on a plate.

There was water on the plate, and some poison was added to the water, which was enough to kill the bugs.

When the patient's brother saw the little miracle doctor tweezing out dozens of maggots, one of them couldn't help but vomited.

Zhang Min said disgustedly: "I haven't vomited yet, why are you his brother?"

The man was speechless and kept retching.

The patient was already fainting from the pain, and was woken up again by the stabbing.

After Ying Bao removed all the maggots, she used knives and scissors to clean up the carrion.

This honeycomb-like bad flesh must also be cut off and cleaned, otherwise it will become secondary to infection.

Cutting back gangrene is the most painful. Yingbao was afraid that the patient would burp if he couldn't bear the pain, so he poured a small bottle of Wudingzhi, and said to his wife expressionlessly: "This is five taels of silver, remember it well." ”

A woman doesn't care about money. As long as the little miracle doctor can cure her husband, she will accept it even if it costs 100 taels.

Zhang Min watched the little junior sister methodically poach someone's sores the whole time, and goose bumps appeared on his back.

An hour later, Yingbao finally cut open the sore on the man's back, and cut off the rotten flesh inside.

The gangrene wound on his back was terrible, and the bones of his back could be seen.

Ying Bao carefully applied Wudingzhi to the wound, then applied another layer of wound medicine, and then wrapped him up with a clean cotton cloth.

After tidying up the patient, Yingbao heaved a sigh of relief and asked the woman to take care of the patient carefully before packing up and going out.

But she couldn't rest yet. She had to boil and disinfect the knives, scissors and other items.

No one can interfere with these matters, so Chun Niang just helped her daughter boil a large pot of water to wash herself, and then found some clothes for her to change into.Changes of clothes, masks, etc. must also be boiled in water.

After all this busy work, Yingbao put away the knives that had been cooking for half an hour, ate something and went to sleep.

I fell asleep until I woke up the next day, and hurried to see the patient.

Fortunately, the patient's fever has subsided and he can eat something.

Yingbao felt relieved and went back to wash up and change the medicine for the patient. He also took out the herbs he had prepared and asked the woman to cook them for the patient to drink.

After three days, the patient's back healed well, the fist-sized wound slowly healed, and new flesh had grown, which meant that the gangrene inside was gone.

The woman and her brother-in-law were so happy that they immediately wanted to kowtow to Ying Bao again.

Yingbao helped the two of them up and said, "There are 55 taels of silver in total. After you pay the silver, you can go back and take care of them."

"Yes, I'll go back and get the money right now."

The three of them brought donkey carts when they came to seek medical treatment, and the patient brother immediately took the cart back to his hometown to collect money.Fortunately, his family is a well-to-do family, leaving other people alone, really can't afford it.

Zhou Wucheng's apprentice seriously treated a patient with back gangrene and looked thoughtful.

"Yingbao, how can you cure back gangrene?" Zhou Wuchang was curious.His apprentice is obviously good at medicine and has the potential to be a genius doctor, but he wants to learn forbidden spells from him, which is outrageous.

He had no choice but to learn forbidden spells, but this child did the opposite and seemed to have different ideas from ordinary people.

Yingbao: "Because I can make a magic medicine, as long as he cuts open his sores, and then use my magic medicine, it will be fine."

Zhou Wuchang's forehead twitched, and he asked, "A friend of mine also got back gangrene, can you cure it too?"

"I won't know until I see it," Ying Bao said.

"He's in the capital."

"The capital?" Yingbao immediately shook his head: "I won't go to the capital."

She didn't want to go to a place she had been to once.

Although the capital is prosperous, it would be boring if my parents and brothers were not there.

Zhou Wuchang stroked his beard and said, "Then I'll write a letter asking him to come over."

Ying Bao nodded: "Okay, when he comes, I will try my best to heal him."

Unexpectedly, Master's friend hadn't arrived yet, and two more people came to seek medical treatment, both of which had sores.

One of them had a sore on his thigh and could no longer walk.

Ying Bao and her second senior brother went to the fields to dig up a lot of dandelions and pounded them up to the roots for later use.

We also collected honeysuckle, mugwort and atractylodes. Bupleurum forsythia, coptis and cypress are not available here and can only be purchased from drug stores.

After the medicinal herbs were prepared, they were boiled into a ointment with the pupil spring, and Ying Bao let the two take a bath and wash their hair, and then he performed the knife on them.

Five days later, the two went home happily.

From then on, Yingbao had to see a patient with back gangrene or sores every few days, which made her scratch her head.

In fact, I can cure many diseases by myself, so why only sores come to see a doctor?
From this, Yingbao also discovered a rule that most of the patients with back gangrene don't pay much attention to cleanliness.

In the summer, they only took a bath for several days, and they never rubbed their backs.

So Yingbao wrote a method on a large piece of paper to prevent back ulcers, which is to ask everyone to bathe frequently, wash their hair, and rub their backs frequently. In winter, it is best to bathe once every seven or eight days and cleanse with soap locust. Over and over again.

There is a man with leprosy in the village next door. Because of his slovenliness, he has sores on his head and almost all his hair has fallen out. It is very ugly.

Now that the village has become wealthy, villagers should also know how to prevent themselves and their families from getting sick.

Jiang Sanlang couldn't help laughing when he saw the notice written by his daughter: "It's okay to take a bath frequently in summer, but I'm afraid I can't do it in winter. The weather is cold, and many people don't wash all winter."

"No wonder so many people suffer from back ulcers." Ying Bao muttered, wrote and drew on the paper again, and then handed it to her father: "Dad, let's build a bathhouse in the village. It will burn every seven days in the winter." There is a pool of hot water, and whoever comes to wash it will pay."

With a bath house, it is convenient to take a bath at home in winter, and it can also earn firewood money.

Jiang Sanlang took the paper and saw that the top looked like a big pot. Several people were squatting in the pot, and firewood was burning under the pot.

Although my daughter's painting is not pretty, it is simple and clear, and a three-year-old child can understand it.

Chun Niang also stretched her head over to take a look and said, "How big of a pot do you have to make so that people can squat in it and take a bath?"

Yingbao blinked: "It doesn't need to be too big, just like the big iron pot we use to roast pig food, but we need to build a small pool on top of the iron pot. The small pool is connected to the big pool. The iron pot is cooked here. The hot water will also flow into the big pool. The bottom of the big pool is like the kang we burn at home. The flue passes underneath, so the water in the pool will not get cold."

Chun Niang was confused, but Jiang Sanlang understood.

"Okay, I'll ask someone to make a bathhouse when I have time, um, there will be one for men and women." Burning one is burning, and if two pools are burned at the same time, it is not impossible.
