Chapter 1783

Gao Yang looked pleasantly surprised and let out a long sigh of relief.

Li Erji was just about to speak when he heard Pu Duo's voice.

"Prime Minister Gao, let alone taking blood, even if it were Pu Duo's life, it would be yours!"

"Blood, take as much as you need!"

Pu Duo rolled up his sleeves, looking fearless.

Li Erji's face changed, "Damn it, at a time like this, you Pu Duo still don't forget to show your loyalty?"

"Prime Minister Gao, I, Li Erji, speak directly and don't know how to lie, but Pu Duo's words are exactly what's in my heart."

"I will keep this kindness and sentiment in my heart!"

Gao Yang looked at the two and said solemnly.

"Prime Minister Gao, how do you take the blood?" Liu Yiming asked, his heart stirred and filled with curiosity.

He had been practicing medicine for decades, and this method of treating illness was simply unheard of.

But he was also very expectant.

If this were truly feasible, the impact would be too great; it would be enough to promote the progress of medicine in the world!

"I will take it!"

"Chen Sheng, bring the cloth strips and take the gauze from my first-aid kit!"

Gao Yang ordered quickly while holding a pot of warm wine, and said to Li Erji and Pu Duo,

"Drink a few mouthfuls of this warm wine; it can make the Qi and blood more active and also prevent blood clotting!"

The two did not hesitate for a moment and drank it in large gulps.

Gulp!

The wine flowed down their throats into their stomachs, and both of them were also very nervous.

Gao Yang prepared the tools.

He sorted out the next steps in his mind again, not daring to be the least bit careless.

Once a mistake was made, there would not be the slightest chance to redo it.

Gao Yang muttered to himself, as if reminding himself.

"The sheep intestine casing can serve as a catheter, but some substances in the blood might block it, so the blood must be filtered with gauze!"

"The blood first enters the bowl; prepare a tiny bit of lemon juice to use as an anticoagulant!"

"The middle section of the catheter can be tied with three layers of fine linen cloth soaked in lemon juice to act as an anticoagulant and also to intercept tiny blood clots!"

"Taking three liters of blood will lead to death; half a liter is best. Once Yourong shows signs of shivering, there might be tiny clots, so the transfusion speed must be adjusted immediately..."

Gao Yang's hands were busy, but his mouth kept muttering.

This made Pu Duo and Li Erji unable to help but feel nervous as well.

Gao Yang had always been a person who planned strategies; even when crossing the Sudan Desert and encountering a black sandstorm, he had been calm!

This blood transfusion was not simple!

Soon,

everything was ready.

The blood of Pu Duo and Li Erji, after certain treatments, had also entered the sheep bladder.

And starting from the sheep bladder, to the fish bone needle that had been boiled in water and soaked in strong liquor after Gao Yang's special treatment, a set of simple blood transfusion equipment was assembled.

"Prime Minister Gao, everything is ready!"

Liu Yiming reminded him.

Although he had expectations in his heart, he did not think highly of it because Lu Yourong's arrow wound was too severe.

He held the ancestral golden wound powder in his hand, secretly deciding that if the situation became uncontrollable, he would intervene!

Gao Yang took a deep breath and said, "Then let's begin!"

"Everyone step back; Chen Sheng and Military Physician Liu stay to help me, and everyone else must leave!"

Gao Yang held the hollow, triangular fish bone needle that had been soaked in strong liquor.

He searched for the vein in Lu Yourong's forearm.

The generals retreated outside the tent, waiting anxiously.

Inside the tent,

the sheep bladder blood bag hung from the tent beam, and dark red blood dripped down the catheter made of sheep intestine casing; the unique acidic scent of lemon mixed with the smell of blood permeated the tent.

Liu Yiming and Chen Sheng were incredibly nervous.

This scene—let alone Chen Sheng, even Liu Yiming, who had practiced medicine for thirty years, had never heard of or seen anything like it.

Using human blood to enter the human body through so-called blood vessels—could this really work?

After a while,

Liu Yiming held iron tongs that had been boiled in water, his aged hands trembling slightly.

"Prime Minister Gao, half the blood in the sheep bladder has been transfused, but... but Miss Lu's lips are still blue; can this blood transfusion technique work?"

Gao Yang's expression was cold, his eyes devoid of any emotion, staring at Lu Yourong's pale fingertips.

"Hold the iron tongs in your hand tightly; this method of mine will definitely not be wrong!"

Liu Yiming was worried and anxious.

But he gradually calmed down, showing the composure an old military physician should have.

When he saw Lu Yourong's nail beds gradually recovering,

Gao Yang's eyes lit up, and he said to Liu Yiming, "The transfusion is effective; start pulling the arrow!"

"First, keep the arrow shaft stable and act according to my numbers; pull it out bit by bit. When I count to three, you pull out two inches, and I will use fish-gut thread to ligate the visible blood vessels. This process must be slow!"

Liu Yiming nodded heavily.

"Prime Minister Gao, rest assured; I will do everything exactly as you say."

"One!"

Gao Yang's face was cold as iron, his expression solemn.

Liu Yiming took a deep breath, a glimmer of seriousness appearing in his cloudy old eyes.

He clamped the arrow shaft with the iron tongs and rotated it slowly. At this instant, dark red blood immediately seeped out, but it was not a fatal spray.

This made Gao Yang's eyes light up with joy, and he quietly let out a sigh of relief.

"Two!"

Liu Yiming pulled it outward bit by bit, and bright red blood instantly flowed out in a trickle.

"Three!"

This step was crucial and the most dangerous one.

Because the Great Yan's arrows were extremely vicious, with barbed arrowheads.

As it was pulled out, the surrounding blood vessels would be torn open.

This was also an important reason for the blood transfusion!

Liu Yiming's hand was very steady; he applied a little force outward, and the arrow shaft was pulled out two inches, instantly revealing the barbed arrowhead inside, and the rupture in the intercostal artery was seeping blood.

"Quick!"

Gao Yang was quick-eyed and fast-handed; his left hand pressed gauze soaked in hemostatic powder onto the wound, while his right index and middle fingers were already holding a fine silver needle that had been burned three times over an oil lamp!
