Crusade against the Pope

Chapter 40 Wound Bandaging
In order to improve the effect of binding and stopping bleeding, Gailis first tied a bow-like knot, then passed a wooden stick through the two rope buckles, and continuously rotated the wooden stick to achieve the effect of pressure binding. After feeling the tightness was appropriate, Gailis tied a knot with the extended cloth strip to fix the wooden stick.

After finishing the tying, Gailis did not rush to the next step, but continued to comfort the boy.

"It's okay, the snake isn't poisonous."

"Don't worry, everything will be handled..."

"Take a deep breath, we can work this out together."

With soft voice and graceful movements, Garris displayed his personal charm, infecting others' emotions and making people feel inexplicably at ease.

A little later, the boy's father came with soap, a dagger, and a bucket of well water, and Dr. Abdullah also arrived.

After taking a look at the color and pattern of the poisonous snake, Abdullah's originally anxious expression eased a little. After seeing the place where Gairis tied up the boy, he did not rush to interfere with Gairis's actions.

"Doctor, that Frank man..." A passerby came up to Abdullah and expressed his concerns.

Abdullah waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

It was the boy's father who looked at the doctor for help after Abdullah came over.

"Do as he says."

After hearing what Abdullah said, the boy's father walked up to Gairis with what he needed.

Garys didn't say much. He threw the expensive soap into the bucket without any regret, drew out the soapy water, and then began to wash the wound on the boy that was bitten by the poisonous snake.

Up to this point, everything is still within the memory of the previous life, regarding the normal scope of how ordinary people rescue victims of poisonous snake bites.

One thing worth noting is that Garys knew that sucking out the poisonous blood with his mouth was not a reasonable way of rescue.

Firstly, it is easy to cause the poisonous blood to spread near the wound. Secondly, it is easy to cause poisoning to the rescuer himself. Thirdly, the efficiency of sucking out the poisonous blood is actually quite questionable.

After the initial wound cleaning, Garys had to perform some self-help maneuvers that are not recommended for ordinary people after being bitten by a venomous snake.

After the boy was bitten by the poisonous snake, he was obviously very emotional. He stepped on the snake to death and kicked it away, so that the fangs remained in the wound.

Generally speaking, it is not recommended for ordinary people to pull out fangs by themselves to save themselves, as this can easily cause secondary spread of the venom.

But for Gillis, this is actually not difficult.

The four words "quick eyes and quick hands" are the most intuitive reflection of Garys' abilities today.

In the instant that the young man could not react, the wound on his foot had been cut just right, and then Garys dug out the fangs.

Such swift and steady movements might have amazed ordinary people, but Abdullah, an expert, was astonished.

This is a level that even experienced doctors have difficulty in achieving, and this kind of steady mind is something that ordinary young apprentices do not possess.

After cutting open the wound and removing the fangs, Gailis washed the boy's wound again with soapy water.

Soapy water is relatively mild in nature. When cleaning wounds, it can avoid irritating reactions, reduce the risk of infection, and remove a lot of venom from the wounds.

After completing this step, Garys turned to Dr. Abdullah for help. Up to this moment, he had done everything he could, and there was nothing he could do from then on.

Abdullah's old face, which was wrinkled by time, showed a smile. He shook his head slightly to express his approval to Gairis.

"You did a great job. Leave the rest to me." He came to the boy and, like Garys, comforted him again. Keeping the patient calm was essential in this kind of first aid.

Compared with the Franks from other places, Abdullah was obviously more convincing. His few words made the boy stop sobbing completely.

Then he took out the freshly prepared ointment from the medicine box he carried with him, applied it on the wound, and then bandaged it with a clean new bandage.

Although Arab doctors of this era were not aware of the existence of microorganisms, their understanding and treatment of wound infections were much higher than that of their European barber colleagues of the same period.

At least Arab doctors will try their best to clean the wound, use herbs with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects to assist in bandaging, and even the bandages will be carefully washed and kept clean.

The passers-by around calmed down after seeing Abdullah take action.

Compared to the strange Franks of unknown origin, an old doctor like Abdullah can gain their trust.

Perhaps it was because the snake was not highly poisonous, or maybe it was because Garys treated the wound just right, or maybe it was because Abdullah's ointment really had magical effects.

In short, although the boy's legs were still swollen, there seemed to be no more abnormal symptoms.

Even though his face was slightly flushed, it was just a normal sign of mild poisoning. After returning to his clinic, Abdullah prescribed some herbal medicine for the father to take away.

Garys also followed all the way back to the clinic.

After seeing the father off, the clinic became much quieter, and Garys and Abdullah took their seats.

Gailis noticed that the apprentice who was busy in the clinic had a facial feature that was somewhat similar to Abdullah's.

"That's great, young man. Franks like you are rare."

Having said this, Abdullah instructed his apprentice to pour a glass of water and handed it to Gairis. He also took the glass and began to drink it slowly. The previous busy work must have exhausted this old man.

Abdullah has always liked people like Guillis who are capable, knowledgeable and kind. Medical ethics is highly valued in the licensing examination of Arab doctors.

This certainly cannot prevent some beasts in human form from taking advantage of the situation, but at least Abdullah himself approves of it.

"Is there anything you want to do in our town? I, an old man, have some influence in this town."

"Sir, Ahmed..."

As soon as Gillis mentioned the name.

Abdullah nodded firmly to express his opposition.

"No, that person can't."

Gairis sighed, realizing that Abdullah was upset with Ahmed, and continued, "I broke into Ahmed's yard and killed half of his family, and now..."

Before Abdullah finished listening to these words, his good composure was instantly broken. He could not hold back the water in his mouth and it spurted out with a "puff".

"what?"
