Patients were continuously being carried out, and Gu Jiao no longer dwelled on the issue regarding the medicine chest.
Gu Jiao and the physician from Lingbo Academy had a brief discussion about triaging the patients. Given that everyone was busy with their own tasks, it was difficult to achieve a synergistic effect.
The physician from Lingbo Academy nodded in agreement, "What you said makes a lot of sense, young brother."
Generally, people would first save patients of higher social status, and if their statuses were equal, they would prioritize those with the most severe injuries. However, from a physician"s perspective, these were not always the best choices.
But very few people understood this principle and even fewer dared to actually implement it.
After finishing the triage, Gu Jiao instructed Mu Qingchen to clear the area of unnecessary people. Apart from the physician and a few other individuals she specifically named, no one else was allowed to approach.
This was partly to avoid disrupting the treatment and also to prevent any trampling or pushing incidents.
As for the issue of whether the little medicine chest would be exposed, in a life-or-death situation, it wasn"t worth worrying about.
However, after inquiring for a while, it turned out that besides the Imperial Advisor himself, no one else recognized these modern instruments, so there was nothing to worry about.
"Big sis, I found a room inside with good lighting." Gu Xiaoshun said to Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao nodded, "Good, once I finish the triage, we can move the patients needing surgery inside."
Of the five patients carried out so far, three had superficial injuries, one was seriously injured, and one had a dislocated right arm.
The seriously injured patient was suffering from internal bleeding and was in critical condition. The physician from Lingbo Academy shook his head, "There"s nothing we can do."
If someone from the Imperial Advisor"s Hall were here, there might be a glimmer of hope, but for a common physician——
"The stretcher is here!" Yuan Xiao said.
Mu Chuan and Teacher Wu also arrived. The academy didn"t have stretchers, so Teacher Wu had led them to make some temporary ones.
There were six stretchers in total.
Gu Jiao pointed to the critically injured patient, "Carry him inside."
The physician was stunned, "Young brother, what are you planning to do?"
Gu Jiao replied, "Surgery. I"ll leave the first aid kit with you. You"ve seen how to use the medications earlier."
"I did see, but..." The physician looked incredulously at the patient being carried inside, wondering if this person could really be saved. This student was a polo player, right? It wasn’t surprising that he knew some basic bandaging, but could he really handle such a serious injury?
"Young brother." The physician said kindly. He didn"t want this young man to act impulsively and end up being responsible if the patient died.
But before he could continue, Gu Xiaoshun arrived and directed Teacher Wu and Zhao Wei, who were carrying the stretcher. "This room!"
Teacher Wu and Zhao Wei carried the injured patient inside.
To be honest, the two of them also noticed the severity of the injury. Xiao Liulang was just an outsider who came to help, and he didn"t have to risk his life like this.
In short, they were also worried that Xiao Liulang might end up killing the patient.
"Take the other stretchers over there." Gu Jiao pointed towards the collapsed area.
The collapse area was on the right side of the pavilion, and it wasn"t far to go around from the open s.p.a.ce in front.
"What should I do?" Mu Qingchen asked.
Gu Jiao said, "I need wooden boards to immobilize the arms and legs."
Mu Qingchen responded, "Alright, I know what to do."
Mu Chuan quickly said, "Fourth brother, I"ll go too!"
Mu Qingchen replied, "I"ll handle it alone. You stay here and make sure no one enters."
Mu Chuan felt the trust and seriousness in his fourth brother"s words. He nodded solemnly, "Yes, fourth brother!"
The dean of Lingbo Academy also arrived at the scene. He was expecting chaos but found everything organized and orderly.
The physician tended to the wounded, the rescuers lifted the injured. Everyone had clear roles. Even the Songshan Academy and the Zilin Academy, who were originally at odds, set aside their differences and worked together to dig and rescue those trapped in the collapsed area.
As for his greatest concern, which was the possibility of onlookers causing a disturbance, it didn"t happen. Mu Qingchen, with the academy staff and Mu Family guards, secured the scene so tightly that not even a fly could get through.
It was in this situation that he saw Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao had just fixed a dislocated arm for a patient. Mu Qingchen arrived with various sizes of wooden boards, and Gu Jiao used one to immobilize the patient’s arm, wrapping it with gauze and hanging it from the patient’s neck for support.
The dean of Lingbo Academy was puzzled.
Wait a moment, wasn"t this the polo player from Tianqiong Academy who single-handedly turned the situation around in the match?
From the previous match where he learned from Xu Ping to this one where he messed with the Black Wind Cavalry horses, every strand of hair on his body seemed to scream mischief!
Suddenly, seeing him being serious made even the dean of Lingbo Academy hesitate to recognize him!
After stabilizing the patient"s dislocated arm, Gu Jiao handed him over to the physician from Lingbo Academy, "I"ve treated the dislocation, but his leg is also injured."
The physician from Lingbo Academy nodded, "Got it, I"ll take care of it. You go in and perform the surgery."
The dean of Lingbo Academy widened his eyes. This kid could perform surgery too?
There were not enough physicians. After learning that the Duke Estate had come with a divine healer with them, the dean of Lingbo Academy immediately sought help from Second Master Jing.
Second Master Jing looked at Mu Ruxin.
Mu Ruxin said, "A physician"s heart is benevolent, and it is my duty to save lives. Dean, please lead the way."
"Thank you, Divine Healer Mu!" The dean of Lingbo Academy was overjoyed and quickly brought Mu Ruxin to the scene.
Mu Ruxin didn"t send anyone to fetch her medicine box from the carriage, as it contained rare and precious medicines she was reluctant to use on a group of servants.
Fortunately, n.o.body else knew she had brought it along.
Gu Jiao"s surgery was halfway through when the patient"s internal bleeding became severe. A spray of blood splashed onto her protective goggles, suddenly blinding her.
Both her hands were occupied, leaving her unable to wipe the blood away.
"Xiaoshun!"
She called out.
Mu Qingchen was busy helping Teacher Wu stabilize a fractured patient"s splint. Upon hearing her call, he hurriedly stood up and walked over. Just as he was about to ask Gu Jiao what she needed, a tall figure stepped into the room ahead of him.
The owner of the figure extended a slender, jade-like hand and wiped the blood off Gu Jiao"s goggles with a handkerchief.
"Hemostat." she requested.
The person skillfully picked up the hemostat and handed it to her.
She took it and clamped down on the blood vessel.
"Needle holder." she requested again.
The person accurately handed her the needle holder.
As she was suturing, she suddenly realized that Gu Xiaoshun didn"t understand these tools——only Gu Yan did because he had been curious enough to ask her.
She glanced abruptly at the person beside her, slightly taken aback.
Xiao Heng didn"t speak; with people watching outside, he couldn"t say anything.
Out of the corner of her eye, Gu Jiao noticed Mu Qingchen at the door and pretended not to notice, continuing the surgery, "Thank you, young miss. Could you kindly pa.s.s me the third pair of scissors on the right? Saving lives is of utmost importance; if I have offended you in any way, I ask for your forgiveness."
Xiao Heng was dressed in the uniform of Canglan Women’s Academy and was wearing a veil. His side profile was delicate and refined like a celestial being.
"Qingchen! Come help!"
Teacher Wu"s voice called out from outside.
Mu Qingchen looked deeply at the two of them for a moment but ultimately didn"t enter the room. He turned and went to a.s.sist Teacher Wu in treating the wounded.
Gu Jiao had already categorized the patients and left enough medicine for the physician of Lingbo Academy. The scene was busy but orderly, hectic but not chaotic.
This was the situation Mu Ruxin saw.
She had come with the demeanor of a savior, but... it seemed there wasn"t much for her to do here.
She had accompanied her master to scenes of accidents before, and even those accidents smaller in scale than this one were very chaotic. Here, however——
"This is Young Miss Mu, a disciple of Divine Healer Luo." the dean of Lingbo Academy said to his academy’s physician.
The physician, upon hearing the name Divine Healer Luo, showed little reaction. He pointed to a patient with a thigh injury and said, "Could you please help with his injury, young miss?"
The grand scene of everyone eagerly awaiting her help that Mu Ruxin had antic.i.p.ated didn"t occur. She furrowed her brow and turned to another patient lying unconscious in a pool of blood, saying, "Let me treat him first; his condition is more severe."
Severity and urgency were two different things; the latter patient was more severely injured, but bleeding was controlled, so his condition wouldn"t deteriorate immediately. However, without timely treatment, the thigh-injured patient could become the next critical case due to excessive blood loss.
Fortunately, the physician was almost done treating his current patient, so he didn"t say anything.
Mu Ruxin treated the unconscious patient while the physician went to stop the bleeding of the patient with the thigh injury.
Gu Jiao had completed her first surgery, and Gu Xiaoshun brought in several more patients afterward, none too severe.
As Mu Qingchen pa.s.sed by the doorway, he paused, as if casually glancing inside, and happened to see Xiao Heng wiping the sweat from Gu Jiao"s forehead.Raz P."s Thoughts

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:
Description:
In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succ.u.mb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.
When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.
The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.
From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.
***
Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.
After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"
Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"
Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don"t abandon me, alri—”
Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
He hasn"t finished his lines yet though…
