While Li Shichu was giving acupuncture to a patient, suddenly someone on the street outside started shouting: "It's not good! It's not good! There are officers and soldiers attacking! Everyone, run away!"
Li Shichu was stunned for a moment, but fortunately she had a strong psychological quality, so the silver needle in her hand did not stick to the wrong acupuncture point, and landed steadily where it should.
However, her patient was not as calm as she was. He stood up suddenly in fright: "Are there another war?"
"Run quickly, the enemy is about to enter the city!" The street suddenly became chaotic, pedestrians ran in panic, and the patients in Li Shichu's hospital also said to Li Shichu in a panic: "Doctor, we No more medical treatment today!”
After saying that, she ran away, and the person in front of Li Shichu looked at her with a troubled and anxious expression, and said, "Doctor Li, I, I also want to go home. There are old people and children at home..."
"Okay." Of course Li Shichu would not stop others from escaping. She immediately pulled out the silver needle stuck in the patient's head, "Let's go!"
The patient ran away quickly. At this time, Li Shichu was the only one left in the hospital. After thinking about it, she took all the medicine cabinets back to her companion space, so that even if the enemy troops came in, they would burn, kill and loot. , her loss will not be too great.
When she was about to close the medical clinic, she found that almost all the pedestrians on the street had left, and only a few of them were left, looking frightened and hurriedly walking. It was obvious that everyone was running away very quickly.
But he didn't know who was attacking Funing City this time. Li Shichu thought of the "caravan" led by the red-faced man he met when he went out to collect medicine not long ago. Could it be them?
Bao Daqiang wonders if he can organize manpower to resist? Probably not. After all, the people he trusts most are the fellow villagers who fled with him. They have no military qualities at all. When encountering more regular enemy troops, the only possibility is to surrender or surrender.
Living in troubled times, human lives are like grass and grass. The people in Funing City have no time to take care of themselves. They run away and hide. The enemy army is in chaos even before they can invade.
Li Shichu closed the door of the medical clinic, disguised himself as an ordinary middle-aged man, and quietly jumped onto the fifth-floor Buddhist Incense Pavilion, the tallest building in Funing City, and looked in the direction of the city gate.
She held a telescope and clearly saw the crowd of soldiers outside the city besieging the city gate. Among the people defending the city, Daqiang and his men were not included. There were only some ordinary guards left. Those guards actually did not run for their lives. is still holding on.
But in the end, he was outnumbered. Li Shichu soon saw that the city gate was pushed open by a few thick logs by the enemy troops outside. The guards who were loyal to their duties were killed, and the enemy troops surged in.
Li Shichu had already taken out a lot of medicinal powder at this time. If these enemy troops entered the city and massacred the people unscrupulously, she would fight back.
Fortunately, these leaders were not so crazy. Although they invaded the city, they did not condone the soldiers' misbehavior. Instead, they led the troops straight to the center of the city where the government was located.
Li Shichu breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the leader of this group was not a robber type who burned, killed, looted and ran away, but was an ambitious type who planned to invade Funing City and own the city for a long time.
There is no need to worry too much about the lives of the people in the city.
Sure enough, when Li Shichu came down from Foxiang Pavilion and returned to the medical center for most of the day, he did not hear the wails and cries of the people being killed.
It's just that Bao Daqiang and the others probably didn't end well, but Li Shichu didn't care too much. After all, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Aren't you the one who kills me and I kill you for the rebels? Those who are more aware of the situation and surrender in time can still have a good ending.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Li Shichu, she is just an ordinary doctor.
The people who took control of Funing City were the rebels from the other side, not from the nearby prefectures and counties. This surprised Li Shichu, but the people from either side were good, as long as they had the bottom line not to massacre the city and not torment the people. Li Shichu The requirements are very low.
The street was quiet for two days, and then gradually became lively again. The people were used to this kind of unstable life, and the managers above would change from time to time. Life had to go on, so as soon as they realized the new management If the attacker has no intention of harming them, they have to go out and work hard for a living.
Li Shichu's medical clinic opened again, and this time her patients actually included several people who looked like soldiers. They treated open wounds, but they were not serious. Li Shichu cleaned the wounds, gave medicine, and then treated them. alright.
"Doctor Li, are those people with cuts and stab wounds on their arms and legs the soldiers who captured our city before?" The previous patient who came to Li Shichu for acupuncture because of frequent headaches asked secretly.
Li Shichu glanced at the curious man and said, "You want to know so much, why didn't you just ask them directly?"
"How dare I ask this? If I offend them, will I still be alive?" the patient blurted out.
"They shouldn't kill people casually. If they wanted to kill, they would have killed them as early as the day they entered. If they don't kill now, it means they are not allowed to kill innocent people casually." Li Shichu said calmly.
The patient laughed dryly and said: "Haha, Doctor Li, you are right. Maybe the people above want to win over the people and will not kill all of us innocent people in anger."
"You do have some knowledge." Li Shichu said with some surprise, "You also know that the higher-ups want the people's support."
"Hey, I've been studying for a few years after all. Water can carry a boat and capsize it. Aren't we people just water?" The patient held his head full of silver needles and smiled stupidly, like a furry animal. Like a hedgehog.
Li Shichu couldn't help but raise his lips.
As soon as the silver needle was inserted into the patient's head, there was a sudden noise at the door, and then three young men rushed in carrying a man holding his stomach and wailing on a wooden board.
"Doctor, come and see my brother. He was stabbed in the abdomen with a long knife and he bled a lot..." One of the men carrying the injured said anxiously to Li Shichu.
Li Shichu hurriedly stepped forward to check the wounded man's wounds, only to see that his left abdomen was covered in blood and flesh, and even the squirming intestines could be seen. It was not known whether other organs were injured.
"Doctor, you must save him. He was stabbed because of me..." A man with red eyes begged Li Shichu sadly.
"Doctor, please try your best to save him!" Others also requested.
"I will try my best." Li Shichu quickly used silver needles to prick various acupuncture points of the injured person to stop the bleeding, and replied, "He needs a quiet and clean place for the operation. You carry him to the small room next to him.
The small room was the operating room prepared by Li Shichu. She thought it might not be used, but she didn't expect that it would be used now.
The three people followed Li Shichu's instructions and carried the injured person to a small, quiet and hygienic room with sufficient light, and then looked at Li Shichu longingly.
