Chapter 650: Burning Fire
A card-sized blade is actually a very common and versatile knife.
After all, Ye Chen purchased it for a period of time and couldn't get more military supplies, but fortunately, it was small enough to be easy to carry before it was packed into a side bag by Ye Chen in case of emergency.
Now it was time to use it, Ye Chen reached out and found a finger-thick branch from the pile of wood prepared by Tang Luotong.
Because the multifunctional blade is not only a sharp blade, but also a toothed saw on the other side.
Split the dead branch from the middle, and then clamp the pure steel blade in it, and after trying the size, Ye Chen was very satisfied.
In this regard, Tang Luotong on the side looked at Ye Chen without saying a word, completely unaware of what he was going to do.
"Here, do me a favor and tighten my legs!"
The preparations were almost over, and Ye Chen took out something that looked like a shoelace from his small bag.
It's not as simple as a shoelace, it's a paracord, which is extra strong, and it is a sign in outdoor stores, but many people don't know how to use it.
Tie the rope in a knot, with Tang Luotong's help, Ye Chen tightened his calf, temporarily not allowing blood to flow would prevent the wound from continuing to bleed, but Ye Chen's purpose did not stop there.
Seeing that it was almost over, Ye Chen picked up the dead branch just now and put the end with the blade on the flame to bake.
The blade made of pure steel was quickly roasted red by the fire, and looking at it almost, Ye Chen beckoned to Tang Luotong.
"Help me hold this leg a little bit!"
Next came the nightmare, under Ye Chen's guidance, Tang Luotong knelt on the ground and pressed Ye Chen's ankles and knees.
"In this way, you close your eyes and don't look, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it!"
Gritting his teeth, in fact, Ye Chen also knew what it would look like, but in order to avoid inflammation and infection, he had no choice.
"Why?"
Tang Luotong looked puzzled, she still didn't understand what Ye Chen was going to do.
"If you close it, you'll close it!"
It can't be delayed any longer, and things have to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Ye Chen didn't bother to explain anything, and reached out from the fire to clamp the red-hot blade.
Tang Luotong could only reluctantly close her eyes, and just when she closed them tightly, she only heard a sizzling sound in her ears.
Followed by the smell of barbecue meat into her nose, and at the same time, Ye Chen's legs began to twitch involuntarily.
"Ahh
Instinctively opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was the razor-burning blade, which burned directly on Ye Chen's valgus wound.
As soon as the raised flesh skin was scalded by the fiery red blade, it immediately began to make a sizzling sound, and Tang Luotong at close range almost saw the oil flowing out.
"What do you do!"
Instinctively withdrawing his hands, Tang Luotong looked at Ye Chen, who was covered in sweat, in horror.
The fiery red blade was still emitting a sizzling sound on the wound, and Ye Chen, who couldn't speak in pain, clenched his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot but he couldn't stop it.
Inflammation of the wound is caused by the destruction of internal tissues and the growth of bacteria without the protection of the skin.
Especially on the grassland, mosquito bites are also a very deadly existence.
Only by burning the wound with fire and completely sealing off the external invasion, although it is still inevitable that the internal inflammation will be inevitable, it can still be supported in a short time.
At the same time, because of the burns, the blood vessels are destroyed, and the bleeding will be temporarily stopped, which is a last resort, and now Ye Chen has the only way to do it.
"Whew!"
Finally, Ye Chen let out a sigh of relief, and he was drenched in sweat all over his body, leaning heavily on the trunk again, his face pale.
The pain is piercing, and coupled with the already demobilized body, this pain is self-inflicted.
But it can't be over yet, because the burned wound still needs to be bandaged, so Ye Chen reached out and took out another piece of feminine products from his small bag and put it on the wound, and then began to wrap the wound with shredded steps.
"I'll do it!"
Tang Luotong, who was relieved from the shock, hurriedly took the strip of cloth and began to help tie it up.
Now she finally knew why Ye Chen said that all he was carrying were artifact-level treasures, as a woman, she knew better that the items used once a month were sterile.
Using it to pad the outside of the wound can at least play a protective role, and after wrapping it tightly with a rag strip as a bandage, it can be regarded as temporarily stopping the injury.
"Untie the rope!"
The weak Ye Chen was leaning there, and now it was difficult to even lift his fingers.
The torture made his eyes very heavy, but he knew better that it was not drowsiness, but coma.
Untie the rope on his leg, Ye Chen is finally completed, otherwise when he wakes up, I'm afraid his leg will really be useless.
"What else are you doing now?"
Looking at Ye Chen, who was angry, Tang Luotong was extremely nervous in her heart, she rarely felt helpless, but this time she was really scared.
"Honestly rest for a while, I'm a little sleepy, just sleep for a while, before you take advantage of the dawn to collect some firewood for use at night, I'm afraid we will live here tonight."
His injuries are not good, and he can't leave for the time being, and the grassland at night is a hunting ground, which will be more dangerous than the scorching heat during the day.
With no hunting and no food supplies, Ye Chen knew that he had to rest as soon as possible, otherwise the only thing that awaited them was death.
"I know, then you can go to sleep!"
Tang Luotong nodded, and after watching Ye Chen slowly close her eyes, she stood up again.
The scorching sun was baking the earth, and Tang Luotong began to get busy again.
She hadn't sweated so much in a long time since she had sat at her desk all day, her clothes soaked with sweat and dried by the sun.
Fortunately, her efforts paid off, and she felt deeply comforted by the increasing number of dead branches and hay she collected.
Every time she returned to the fire, she would observe Ye Chen's chest and make sure that his chest was still undulating, so that she would be relieved.
For a whole afternoon, in addition to resting, Tang Luotong had been busy, and she knew that if the two of them wanted to survive now, they had to work hard.
"It's a good collection!"
When Tang Luotong walked back with a bundle of firewood, Ye Chen had already opened his eyes, and although his face was still pale leaning on the trunk of the tree, his tone of voice was obviously a little more energetic.
"That's enough, right?"
Tang Luotong wiped the sweat on his face, and his black and white face was no longer taken care of.
"It should be enough, I hope it can be calmer tonight."
Ye Chen looked thoughtfully at Tang Luotong who sat down, there were some things he couldn't say, after all, this place was very close to the water source, and there were footprints of wild beasts all around.
He didn't want Tang Luotong to be overstressed, and he couldn't say what the danger of the first grassland night would be.
