Zhu Yanyi used her self-created five-step surgical method to operate on the wounded man. With a precise, gentle cut at a fixed spot, the injured artery became clearly visible. It had been sliced but remained connected. Zhu Yanyi took out her needle and thread, carefully stitching the severed meridians back together. She then washed the wound with diluted Spirit Spring water, which she had prepared in advance for such emergencies. Next, she applied golden wound-healing powder and bandaged the area. Her movements were smooth and fluid, like clouds drifting in the sky.
Seeing that the initial work was done, Zhu Yanyi used the "Withered Wood Revives" needle technique from her repertoire to restore the patient’s vitality. She then took a pill, no larger than a grain of rice, from another porcelain bottle and gently placed it in the man’s mouth. Watching her swallow it instinctively, she finished her tasks. After checking her pulse, she nodded slightly, satisfied.
"It’s done. There are basically no major issues. He is saved, but he needs a period of careful recovery. I will write a prescription shortly. Have someone fetch the herbs from the Chinese medicine pharmacy. Remember, you must show the herbs to me for confirmation before boiling them. Once he wakes up, give him the medicine. He should recover within a week."
"So fast?" The doctor who had been watching Zhu Yanyi work looked completely astonished.
Zhu Yanyi glanced at the doctor. "This is actually considered slow. If this were at the Capital Hospital, she would be discharged in three days. Here, you lack medical supplies, and I cannot go out to gather herbs myself. I can only use ordinary medicines, which are not potent enough, so the recovery will be slower."
"I heard that a 'Little Divine Doctor' visits the Capital Hospital every year for consultations. Could it be you?" As a doctor, she knew some insider news. Hearing Zhu Yanyi mention the Capital Hospital, she couldn’t help but ask.
Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. "It should be me. If you are talking about the child who visits the Capital Hospital during summer vacation, I am the only minor who does so." She smiled helplessly. "Ever since I passed the medical licensing exam three years ago, I have had to consult for a few days every summer. If it weren’t for this summer camp, I would have gone to the Capital long ago. I didn’t expect that even without going to the Capital, I would still encounter patients here." She sighed deeply. As a doctor, one’s greatest hope is not to see many patients every day, but to see none at all, which would mean everyone is healthy.
"Wow! You are actually the Little Divine Doctor!" The doctor’s eyes lit up. Although she had never met the Little Divine Doctor, the legends were famous even within the Capital Hospital. It was said that the Little Divine Doctor was the youngest and final disciple of the legendary Medicine Elder. No wonder her skills were so exceptional. "Little Divine Doctor, I heard you are Medicine Elder’s disciple, is that true?"
The Deputy Regiment Commander and others also knew of Medicine Elder. Hearing this, they all looked at Zhu Yanyi. Zhu Yanyi felt speechless. "So what if I am Medicine Elder’s disciple? If I didn’t have the skill, showing off her name would be useless. So, please don’t ask this question again." Although she said this, it was obvious that she had already admitted her identity.
"Then, Little Divine Doctor, will our soldier be alright?" The Deputy Regiment Commander was overjoyed and asked eagerly.
"There is no problem. All necessary surgeries have been performed. Just remember to fetch and boil the medicine correctly." Zhu Yanyi took out paper and pen from the bottom of her medical kit, quickly wrote a prescription, and handed it to the Deputy Regiment Commander. "This is her prescription. Remember to show the herbs to me for confirmation after buying them, before boiling them."
