Chapter 1159: Continuing to Work

Once she finished, she prepared to head back. The officer who had called her over said, You should head back first. Ill call you again when the commander needs help.

Alright. Ning Shu left with the medicine chest and hunched over again as she walked through the trench. Whenever she encountered wounded soldiers, shed immediately set down the medicine chest to give emergency treatment.

When she got back to the tent, she saw that Fang Feifei was so busy she was practically running around in circles. She was very much in a fl.u.s.ter because she had never done these things before. When she saw that Ning Shu was back, she sighed in relief. Youre finally back.

Ning Shu set down the medicine chest, pulled on gloves, then asked Fang Feifei, Whos more severely injured?

The person over there. He got shot twice. Fang Feifei pointed to a man on a wooden board and Ning Shu headed over to check his pulse. It was very weak. Medicinal powder had already been sprinkled on the wounds.

Ning Shu took out acupuncture needles and inserted them in two pressure points before starting to deal with the wound.

Fang Feifei stared blankly at Ning Shu. She felt that this woman in front of him was nothing like the illiterate girl Zhu Yanqiu had described. She was able to treat wounds so calmly, how could she possibly be the child bride that Zhu Yanqiu had said who didnt know anything?

It was now starting to get dark. Ning Shu couldnt really see the wounds anymore. Moreover, after working for an entire day, her eyes were already worn out. It was very strenuous to continuously bend over with a scalpel in her hands.

Help me bring that light over. I cant see, said Ning Shu to Fang Feifei who was standing at the side.

Oh, okay. Fang Feifei brought over the oil lamp and walked to Ning Shu. It was only now that Ning Shu could just barely manage to see.

The sound of gunfire was gradually decreasing and it wasnt as intense as before. Ning Shu knew that todays battle was over.

She finished sewing up the wound, then stretched. She gave a long exhale. So tired!

After the battle, several more injured were brought over so Ning Shu had to start treating them even faster. Since it was dark, Fang Feifei kept helping her hold the oil lamp. When one hand got sore, shed switch to her other hand.

After working for another good while, Ning Shu finally managed to deal with all the injuries. As of now, it was completely dark outside. It was probably around ten.

Once she finished, she thanked Fang Feifei. Fang Feifei didnt say anything and just set down the oil lamp to return to Zhu Yanqius side.

Ning Shu rolled her stiff neck. She could finally have a good rest. She wiped her scalpel, scissors and other equipment clean before putting them in the box. There was a lot less powder in the medicine chest and this had just been the first day. It seemed that she had to be more conservative with it. She felt that she should probably ask for medical resources from the higher ups. She was a military doctor, but without anti-inflammatory medicine, no matter how much ability she had, she wouldnt be able to save anyone.

When it came time to eat, the cook brought over some food. The food was very simple, it was just rice soup with pickled vegetables and some steamed corn buns. Ning Shu gnawed on the steamed corn bun. If she seriously couldnt swallow it, shed just drink some of the rice soup that was as clear as water to wash it down.

Fang Feifei couldnt really stomach these things. She set them down after just one bite and took out chocolate from her pocket. Ning Shu noticed Fang Feifei eating chocolate. In this era, chocolate was very expensive foreign candy.

Truly, she was rich beyond belief.

Zhu Yanqiu who had been unconscious for almost half a day finally woke up. When he opened her eyes, he was a bit confused. He moved slightly and immediately inhaled sharply in pain.

Yanqiu, lie down for now. Dont move. Fang Feifei quickly pressed Zhu Yanqiu down to stop him from getting up.

Feifei. When Zhu Yanqiu saw Fang Feifei, a smile appeared on his face. Fang Feifeis tears instantly overflowed and she said while crying, You really scared me to death! I thought that you wouldnt wake up anymore!

Theres no way. Zhu Yanqiu was in so much pain that he grimaced. Fang Feifei hastily brought the rice soup to Zhu Yanqius lips. Drink some water.

Zhu Yanqiu enjoyed being taken care of by Fang Feifei. From the looks of things, even getting injured was a happy occasion.

Ning Shu stood at the side gnawing on the steamed corn bun while watching the two flirt. After she finished, she started to to see if anyone had a fever. A fever was also quite fatal.

Ning Shu saw that many of the wounded had already become crippled. They no longer had much combat power, so theyll probably be sent home by the army, then given compensation.
