Chapter 004: A Critical Moment!
Chapter 004: A Critical Moment!
From home to the back mountain.
It's actually only a kilometer or two, which would take about ten minutes to run.
Fang Hao relied on fragmented memories from his previous life!
My cousin, Fang Yong, was bitten by a venomous snake in the mountains and was unable to walk back on his own. By the time he was found at noon, he was already in a coma due to severe poisoning. In the end, his lower leg became necrotic and had to be amputated to save his life.
We must find them as soon as possible.
To prevent this tragedy from happening again!
...
"Cousin!"
Fang Hao went into the mountains and searched for a while.
Soon they spotted a familiar figure.
At first, he didn't know where Fang Yong was; he only knew that the other man had been bitten by a poisonous snake in the mountains.
The only way to find it was through one's own superhuman senses (hearing and sight). Fortunately, luck wasn't too bad, and it was found not long after entering the mountains.
"Hiro?!"
"You've come at the right time; I've been bitten by a poisonous snake."
Fang Yong saw his cousin.
His face instantly showed surprise and delight.
Today, he went into the mountains to collect some local produce but was bitten on the ankle by a poisonous snake.
My first thought was to go down the mountain to provide medical assistance.
Who knew that after walking a short distance, my entire leg became sore and numb that I lost all feeling and could no longer walk. In these mountains, I was helpless and had no one to turn to.
Unlike later generations, we don't have cell phones to call for help anytime in this day and age.
Seeing his cousin Fang Hao in such an emergency was like a drowning person grabbing a lifeline.
"I'll carry you down the mountain first!"
Fang Hao didn't waste any words.
The situation is critical, and saving lives is the priority.
We have to carry the other person back to the village first.
Snake venom cannot be ignored!
"good!"
"Carry me directly to my tenth uncle's place."
Fang Yong didn't make a big deal out of it.
The most urgent task is to deal with the snake venom, and the tenth uncle mentioned is the village's barefoot doctor.
It's important to know that in rural areas, when someone is bitten by a venomous snake, the first thing they do is not take them to the hospital for antivenom treatment, but rather use folk remedies.
Medical conditions were not good in the early 1990s, and going to the town's hospitals and small clinics was not as effective as some folk remedies and medicinal herbs.
"Um."
Fang Hao nodded.
He then carried Fang Yong on his back and ran quickly towards the village.
Luckily, he's over 1.8 meters tall, otherwise carrying an adult man would have been really difficult.
No matter what, save the other person's life first.
In his previous life, Fang Yong's leg was amputated, leaving him with a lifelong regret that could never be erased. Even though he later succeeded in starting a seafood farming business and made a lot of money, he was still a disabled person.
This is the most successful cousin in the family.
"Hiro."
"How did you end up in the mountains?"
on the way back.
Fang Yong endured the pain in his leg and asked.
I never expected that Fang Hao would appear in front of me at my most critical moment. He was like a great savior.
"Um... I'm just going for a walk in the mountains."
"I never expected to run into you."
Fang Hao made up a random excuse to brush it off.
It's impossible for him to tell him that he was reborn and came here specifically to save him after learning that he had been bitten by a poisonous snake.
In his previous life, he only learned the news later.
Fang Hao's father, Fang Dahui, has five siblings: an aunt, an uncle, an elder uncle, and several cousins. He only has a good relationship with Fang Yong.
The others all looked down on him!
Who told him to act like that?
"Sigh... thank goodness you got in this time."
"Otherwise, I would have died there today. I forgot to check the almanac before leaving home, and I never expected to be bitten by a gold-coated iron..."
Fang Yong couldn't help but feel fortunate.
After being bitten by a venomous snake, I didn't walk far before I became paralyzed and gradually lost consciousness.
My heart sank to the bottom!
I almost thought it was going to be Barbie Q.
"If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet! Anything can happen in the mountains..."
Fang Hao shook his head and said.
Their village is nestled against a low mountain and hilly mountain range.
The ocean is just a short distance ahead.
Nestled against the mountains and beside the water!
There's a saying:
Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft water.
Basically, in the village, the men go out to sea to fish, while the women stay at home to farm. In their spare time, they also go into the mountains to hunt wild game to supplement their income.
Fang Yong only went into the mountains to get some wild game and other local products because he had some free time today.
……
soon.
The two then returned to the village.
"Tenth Uncle!"
"My cousin was bitten by a metal-clad man..."
In a courtyard.
Fang Hao shouted anxiously.
This tenth uncle was a well-known barefoot doctor in the village, proficient in various folk remedies and Chinese herbal medicines. Many people would seek his treatment when they were sick or had injuries.
The 1990s!
Medical care is very poor in remote areas.
If you want to go to a hospital or clinic, you have to go all the way to the town, and they may not have the medical expertise to treat snake venom.
"quick!"
"Put him down first."
Fang Hongwen ran out of the house.
The gold-coated iron snake is also known as the golden ring snake.
It is considered a highly venomous snake.
Bites can typically cause nerve damage, heart failure, muscle infection and necrosis, and other problems.
Upon hearing Fang Hongwen's words...
Fang Hao immediately did as instructed.
I still have a lot of trust in his medical skills.
He had come here for treatment and medication several times before when he was injured in fights.
Fang Hongwen didn't waste any words.
Quickly help treat the wound and apply medicine.
As a barefoot doctor, he was very effective in treating sprains, bruises, and bites from venomous snakes and other poisonous creatures.
Unlike later generations who required serum therapy, it did not require serum therapy.
It's important to understand that even before modern medicine was developed, many people still relied on various methods to treat and save their lives.
After half an hour.
"It's temporarily resolved."
"We need to continue to monitor the situation... If it worsens, we'll have to go to the county hospital for treatment."
Fang Hongwen gave his instructions.
He has already treated the bite wound.
Then they applied the medicine using a traditional remedy passed down through generations.
I don't think there should be any major problems!
"Tenth Uncle".
"Thank you..."
Fang Yong nodded.
I feel that my symptoms have improved.
I think I can save my life.
Many people in the village are bitten by snakes on ordinary days, and they usually come to Fang Hongwen for treatment.
"Um."
"I'll get you two more prescriptions to take back, remember to change them promptly..."
Fang Hongwen nodded.
It's obvious they didn't care much.
After all, people in the village would come to him if they felt unwell or had any problems, and they were already used to hearing words of thanks from him.
A dozen minutes later.
Fang Hao then carried Fang Yong away.
"Hiro!"
"Thank you so much for your help today..."
Fang Yong expressed his sincere gratitude once again.
If it weren't for Fang Hao, I don't know what would have happened. I'm also glad that I've always had a good attitude towards the latter.
"There's really no need to be so formal."
Fang Hao shook his head.
If it were any of the other cousins...
He couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to him!
Moreover, Fang Yong in his previous life was disabled but still determined, quite capable and promising, which was indeed quite good to me.
"good!"
"They're all brothers."
Fang Yong nodded as well.
I will always remember my cousin's kindness.
I'll repay you properly when I have the chance in the future.
If Fang Hao hadn't arrived in time to help, the consequences could have been very serious. After all, it would have been too late to treat someone if they hadn't been found by others.
Even mild cases can result in severe poisoning.
In severe cases, it can be fatal.
You should know that there have been cases in the village where people have died from snake bites in the past.
It is very dangerous to not receive timely treatment!
This is no joke.
