Chen Qi is about to prepare for surgery.

This is an operation that everyone thought could not be done. As a result, the Hua Guo doctor was ready to do it, which surprised the doctors of Freetown National Hospital.

So this simple operating room was surrounded by water, and everyone came to watch the excitement.

Different from the onlooker mentality of others, Chief Laodo is really concerned about the success of his son's operation, because his family needs such a **** so much now.

As long as Teodoro can survive, he will be a living national hero. Who will not sell them some face of the Raodo family?

Face is money, face is gold and diamond mines, and face is all colorful dollars.

African aborigines sang and danced when they were happy, and sang and danced when they were unhappy, so a group of aboriginal people in various national costumes began to dance and sing in the courtyard of the Friendship Hospital.

It is probably a kind of blessing ceremony.

Chief Laodo felt that it was not safe for him to give Chen Qi 100,000 US dollars and 50 kilograms of gold. The more people there were, the more nervous he became, so he took Qi Yunming's hand and said anxiously:

"Head Qi, you are the leader, help me to tell Dr. Chen that the operation must be successful and not fail, and also, the entire surgical team, all Hua Guo doctors in the entire Friendship Hospital, I am willing to give you sponsorship fees, I'll give each of you half a catty, oh no, a catty of gold, as long as my son can have a successful operation and survive..."

The old man Hei was so rambling that he couldn't speak clearly, but Qi Yunming understood.

As long as the operation is successful, the old man will give each doctor a catty of gold, but everyone has it.

"Fucking big dog, he sold another 50 kilograms of gold. Damn, if anyone says that Africans are poor in the future, I will be the first to say no."

Qi Yunming complained in his heart, but there was still surprise on his face:

"This, this, gold, hehe, curing diseases and saving lives is our duty, this, this, I will go to remind, I will go to remind Dr. Chen."

Qi Yunming spoke politely, but his trembling lips and quick footsteps had already exposed his inner unrest.

One catty of gold per person, there is more than enough for a daughter-in-law and a gold bracelet for the old lady when I go back.

As mentioned earlier, traditional Chinese people have a kind of obsession with their own houses. In fact, they also have a kind of obsession with gold.

When Chen Qi married his daughter-in-law back then, he gave Lan Lijuan three gold coins. I don't know how many onlookers died of envy. This is the highest dowry gift for marrying a daughter-in-law.

In the operating room, Chen Qi and the others are already removing the black scab.

When a third-degree burn occurs, a layer of eschar formed on the surface is the same as cowhide, or leather, and feels hard and tied.

If you are not going to have skin grafting, this eschar is actually beneficial, it is equivalent to a protective film to prevent pollution or bacterial infection.

But if you are preparing for skin grafting, then this eschar must be removed, and the sooner the better.

Scar tissue will form in the eschar later, which is not good for skin grafting, and then you need to cut off the scar with a laser or a scalpel before continuing the skin grafting.

This is an extra process and suffers an extra penalty, which will also affect the appearance of the skin graft.

Many conditions are ripe for skin grafting, which started on the third and fourth day after the burn. Chen Qi started skin grafting 10 days ago and it was already too late. Who told him to try to do a few more first.

In Vietnamese and Chinese, this is called "pollution rushes to create latrines"...

This is also the main reason why Chen Qi couldn't wait to perform skin grafting on this "Roast Duck Commander", and it couldn't be delayed any longer.

The process of removing eschar is painful.

The doctor needs to peel off the eschar little by little after wetting it, but the water permeability of the eschar is not good, and it often adheres tightly to the wound. As soon as it was peeled off, blood flowed out as soon as the pink wound surface was exposed.

Because there were too many eschars on Teodoro's body, Chen Qi and the others had to speed up, regardless of whether the roast duck commander was in pain or not.

Let's describe it this way, the degree of pain is the same as Chen Qi's skinning of that rebel leader before.

There are only 8 words to describe it: "It's too painful to live, it's horrible."

Because the vocal cords and throat of "Roast Duck Commander" have been burned and have not recovered, so his screaming sound is not the screaming, but the hoarse echo with air currents, which makes people feel the muscles and skin all over the body.

The bound hands and feet also began to become **** due to the violent struggle.

That really makes people who hear it sad, and those who hear it cry.

Teodoro's screams also frightened the black doctors who were watching the operation outside the glass. As for the family members, they didn't dare to come and see. Chief Raodo stayed away, and Mrs. Teodoro was on the side While weeping, I continued to dance hard and pray for blessings.

By the side, Chen Li and Yang Xiuxiu were scared and hid aside, Chen Qi frowned when he saw it, how do you do skin grafting like this?

Because it was the first phase of skin grafting, the scope of skin grafting was not too large, so Chen Qi didn't consider general anesthesia. It seems that it is not possible now.

"Old He, get ready and give general anesthesia immediately, this will only delay time."

"Immediately perform general anesthesia."

After He Fule heard it, he immediately used the anesthetic drugs. There was an emergency plan in advance for this, so he would not be in a hurry.

Yi Zewen was a little worried when he heard:

"Dean Chen, just the first stage of skin grafting and general anesthesia, and there will be three to four more stages in the future, and general anesthesia again and again in a short period of time. How can this person bear it?"

Chen Qi curled his lips and said in Vietnamese dialect:

"Do you think he is really a national hero? He is just an ignorant son who came to power based on his family connections, and he kills his own compatriots. As long as this kind of person lives for a while, he will never die later."

Yi Zewen didn't say a word, and understood what he should do.

As soon as the general anesthesia is applied and the patient does not move, the operation process is accelerated.

Yi Zewen and Zhang Xing remove the scab, while Chen Qi removes the skin. The three have a clear division of labor.

The normal skin was removed, because there was no crepe, Chen Qi could only use ordinary cotton gauze instead.

I saw that he first put a small piece of skin on the sterile glass, then cut it into uniform 3mm pieces with a scalpel, and then covered the glass with cotton gauze moistened with saline, and removed the skin.

No way, in fact, Mick therapy requires a set of special tools,

For example, cutting off normal skin requires a "skin knife" with a scale design, and cutting skin requires a "skin cutting machine", as well as crepe with an aluminum film on the back, etc.

Chen Qi has nothing but a scalpel.

But the glorious tradition of our party has always been millet plus rifles. The most important thing for doctors to operate is technology, not tools.

"Okay, grab the four corners of the gauze, go, slowly expand it, Zhang Xing, slow down, okay, continue..."

When the gauze expanded to about 5 times, Chen Qi called to stop, and then everyone carefully covered the burnt surface with the gauze containing a small piece of skin, and immediately bandaged it.

The process is very fast, and it is very simple to say, but this idea is not simple.

The following morning, Chen Qi's surgical team used the latest "stinky tofu skin grafting technique" to perform skin grafting on most of the burn wounds. In the end, Teodoro's whole body was wrapped like a mummy.

When Chen Qi came out of the operating room, it was surrounded by a crowd.

Qi Yunming was the first to run over, and whispered in Chen Qi's ear, "How was the operation?"

Chen Qi thought something was wrong, and replied softly: "It should be fine, as long as there is no infection, the skin graft should be successful."

Qi Yun understood Chen Qi with a glance:

"What do you mean should be? This is a must. Let me tell you, Chief Laodo said that as long as the operation is successful, every medical staff in our hospital will be given a catty of gold. The hot food is what everyone eats. , but it's all up to you."

Chen Qi gave a thumbs up:

"Damn, what a big dog. For everyone's gold, I also fought hard. But Qi Chu, you are collecting gold in an upright manner. Be careful that you will be punished when you return to China."

Qi Yunming pondered: "Yes, do we count as receiving red envelopes? Does this count as a violation of discipline?"

At this time, family members and doctors from Freetown National Hospital rushed forward, and began to ask about the operation process, what steps are meaningful, and so on.

Looking at Chen Qi's receding figure, Qi Yunming became worried about gains and losses. One side is gold, the other side is discipline, which makes the team leader embarrassed.

So, if you want to have no desires, you can be strong, and too many troubles come from desires.

Skin grafting for burns, especially for burns with a large area of the body like Teodoro, requires several stages of skin grafting. This process may last as long as one or two months, so it cannot be rushed.

As for the one catty of gold for each person who made a wish, this will definitely be released after the treatment is successful.

I thought the days would pass by so peacefully, but who knew there would be waves again.

On this day, several cars drove into the Friendship Hospital, and several black military officers got out of the car and hurried into Qi Yunming's office.

After a while, Chen Qi was also called over.

"Qi Chu, what's the matter? You called me over so urgently, I'm having a barbecue over there."

Qi Yunming was not as polite as in the past, but instead had a stern face and a gloomy face, pointing to the black military officers next to him and said:

"We are in trouble. They asked us to form a medical team, bring our own medicines, and follow them into battle."

Chen Qi was shocked when he heard that, and looked at the black military officers:

"Sir, what do you mean, let us act as military doctors?"

The leader of the black military officer nodded:

"We have no choice. There are too many casualties on the front line, and the number of doctors in our country is too small, and there is still a shortage of relevant medicines. Huaguo is a friendly country with us. Helping our rescue of the wounded I think this also reflects the great friendship between the two countries. "

Chen Qi's expression turned ugly, and he shook his head:

"Sorry, we can't do this. We are just doctors. It is our bounden duty to save the dying and heal the wounded. If you send the wounded to the Friendship Hospital, we will definitely try our best to treat them. But asking us to join the army in the war is against our neutrality principle. Please forgive me. We can't do it."

What kind of international joke are you making, going to the front with the army, is it too long?

And this is not in the national interest at all. What they are fighting is a civil war. If it is an anti-aggression war, Chen Qi is willing to help.

Countering foreign aggression is a heroic act and should be helped and supported by people all over the world.

But if you are fighting a civil war and killing your compatriots, this kind of behavior is stupid and a bear, and they should all be hanged. What kind of just war is it?

When the black military officers heard Chen Qi's refusal, they were naturally upset.

One of the young military officers directly threatened:

"Doctors from Huaguo, you are currently under our protection. If you refuse to help the ZF army, then you can only be responsible for your safety. At the same time, this will also affect the friendship between our two countries."

Chen Qi thought it was very funny, nodded himself and said:

"Sir, if I'm not mistaken, we are here to help you out of humanitarian spirit. If you can't help us, I will send a telegram to apply for return. Of course, Commander Teodoro Z in the ward The rest of the treatment is your sole responsibility."

"you!"

The black military officer was obviously not convinced. At this time, the higher-ranking military officer stopped him, so he turned around and said to Chen Qi:

"Do not misunderstand Dr. Chen. We are just suggesting that if you are not willing to join the army, I have another suggestion. The Makeni area has just experienced a war. There are a large number of civilian casualties there. Our ZF army can't treat them at all. Then your country can Can't help us?"

The map of Makeni is located in the Eastern Province, more than 100 kilometers away from the capital, and it is also one of the worst-hit areas in this war.

Because Sierra Lean is only a small country, its geographical location is not that important, and it lacks strategic minerals, so this country is not valued by the outside world at all, and even the United Nations has selectively forgotten it.

Without outside help, no one cares about the casualties of tens of thousands of ordinary people in the Makeni area, leaving them to fend for themselves.

So the request of the black military management cannot but be said to be somewhat reasonable.

Of course, people also have a bit of moral kidnapping. If you don't want to help our country's army, then you have to help our country's ordinary people, right?

Qi Yunming and Chen Qi glanced at each other, with worries and thoughts in their eyes.

Before, Chen Qi and other 11 Chinese doctors were kidnapped once when they went to Tucson to conduct research on parasitic diseases. Everyone felt a little bit shadowy.

Now he is going to a war-torn area, and more medical personnel are needed. This has three advantages and two disadvantages, that is, he died in Makeni.

Qi Yunming quickly stood up:

"Several gentlemen, I need to ask the country for this before I give you a reply. After all, we are only doctors, and we only obey the orders of the country."

The black military officer nodded:

"Hundreds of thousands of people in Makeni need your help. I hope you will not be like the hypocritical European and American countries, pretending not to see it without exchanging benefits, and allowing those injured people to die one by one because they did not receive timely medical treatment. , and it is time to test the friendship between our two countries."

Qi Yunming sighed, knowing that this time he was roasted on the fire.
