Chapter 4: Parting Ways

After uncovering the gauze wrapped around Tang Cheng's legs, Tian Kui, who originally thought that Tang Cheng was seriously injured, was frightened by the wound in front of him, from the look on Tang Cheng's face when he was carried in on a stretcher and the blood stains on the gauze, Tian Kui thought that Tang Cheng's injury was very serious, but now looking at the wound, it was not a serious injury at all. Seeing the doubts in Tian Kui's heart, Liu Goat, who was sitting upright on the chair, smiled, "You don't care about the injury, someone will ask about it later, you just have to say that it is serious, it is better to be the kind that needs immediate surgery." ”

For Tang Cheng's injury, Liu Goat and the Chinese medicine practitioner Lao Xu are most familiar, in order to get rid of Ma Han with the help of Tang Cheng's injury, Lao Xu even used some Chinese herbs to make his hands and feet, not a person who knows medical skills can't see that Tang Cheng, who is dying, is a person who can go to the ground immediately. Tang Cheng was originally afraid that he would miss the horse's feet, but Ma Han's gang was bent on joining the troops of their teaching corps, and they were already dissatisfied with Liu Goat taking Tang Cheng with such a burden, where would anyone care about Tang Cheng's life or death.

Tian Kui had no capital or reason to refute Liu Goat's instructions, no matter what the other party's purpose was, Tian Kui only begged them to leave their clinic as soon as possible. Using a scalpel to slowly remove the herbs from Tang Cheng's wound, Tian Kui carefully examined the wound for Tang Cheng, and found that the wound was actually slowly recovering, and it seemed that the herbs they applied to the wound were not useless.

"Lao Liu, what's wrong with your people?" Ma Han, who had eaten and drunk well in the early shop at the corner of the street, came back wiping his mouth, and behind him was Jiujin with a sad face, and Jiujin was the person sent by Liu Goat to pay for the meal. Tang Cheng was injured and couldn't walk on the ground, which obviously slowed down their trip, relying on the buffalo to evacuate to Xuzhou and not knowing how to make the Year of the Monkey Ma Yue, if it weren't for Liu Goat who had been paying for food or something, maybe Ma Han would have proposed to Liu Goat to stay in Tang Cheng or something.

Tian Kui, who had already been told by Liu Goat, reached out to help his glasses, then looked at Liu Goat and said, "The patient's wound has deteriorated, and it needs to be surgically removed from the wound before the wound can be sutured." Tian Kui talked nonsense with Ma Han according to the treatment method of general trauma, and Ma Han, who was receiving a cigarette from Liu Goat's hand, did not pay attention to the condition of Tang Cheng's wound, so he believed Tian Kui's words.

"I'm afraid not, even if the patient's wound is sutured, he will have to stay here for three days to observe and leave the clinic if there are no postoperative complications and other symptoms, but after that, the patient will not be able to walk on the ground, otherwise his leg may face amputation." Ma Han asked if Tang Cheng could walk on the ground after the wound was stitched up, but Tian Kui's answer made Ma Han frown. If it's okay to just stay and observe for three days, but they still can't walk on the ground for the next month, then won't the time for them to arrive in Xuzhou have to be pushed back?

"Lao Liu, if we don't do this, I see that the Chinese medicine old Xu you found is good, let's leave him some money to take care of Tang Cheng's injuries here, and when Tang Cheng's injuries improve, tell them to go to Xuzhou to find us, what do you think?" Ma Han was not bad, he didn't talk about it in front of Tang Cheng, but called the uncertain Liu Goat out of the clinic and muttered quietly. Tang Cheng in the clinic knew what Ma Han was using Liu Goat for, but he also knew what decision Liu Goat would make, so he didn't panic, but chewed hot buns with the help of Jiujin.

Ma Han and Liu Goat talked outside the clinic for a while, and Ma Han meant that Liu Goat wanted Liu Goat to go north to Xuzhou with them, but Liu Goat himself already had a plan, even if Ma Han said that it would not help. After smoking a cigarette, Liu Goat finally said his decision, "There are only the last three people left in our second company, I can't leave Tang Cheng here now, if the little devil really crosses the river, staying here can only be a dead end, so I will take him with me anyway." ”

Liu Goat felt in his pocket for a while, and took out more than a dozen oceans and stuffed them to Ma Han, "Brother, I don't have much money on me, you take these oceans to wrap around, I will take them here for three days and then continue to go north, let's meet in Xuzhou." Liu Goat was originally a veteran oilman, and Ma Han was moved by what he said in a few simple words, if he didn't take advantage of the time to separate from Liu Goat, maybe when they would arrive in Xuzhou.

Ma Han pulled Liu Goat and they went north together, at first it was just a fancy to Liu Goat's ability to fight, those battles outside Guanghua Gate, the second company commanded by Liu Goat was not bad, if it wasn't for the lack of troops and ammunition supplies to keep up, the second company might be able to fight better. Ma Han dragged Liu Goat to Xuzhou to get him into the teaching corps, so that the people who can fight are very popular in the teaching corps, as long as Liu Goat can mix with an official and a half-job, he will naturally be much more comfortable as a person who builds bridges and paves the road.

Liu Goat said his plan, at first Ma Han didn't want to be inseparable from Liu Goat, but Liu Goat is also a person who is used to looking at people's eyes. It's just that as soon as the conversation changed, the topic turned around to the teaching corps, veterans like them know that after the Great War, the reorganization and merger of the troops, the teaching corps and the 88th Division suffered heavy casualties, and it was a clear thing to be reorganized from above, if Mahan and they can't return to the teaching corps in time at this time, maybe Mahan's title of company commander won't be wanted.

Ma Han is a typical official fan, one day thinking about how to improve his rank, and finally raised a rank around the Guanghua Gate position to become a captain company commander, if his company commander title is lost because of the delay in time, then Ma Han will not have to cry to death. Besides, after the war, it is also possible to re-replenish the source of troops for the teaching corps, if there are more additional troops, maybe their official rank can be upgraded to another level, after all, there are many officers who died in the city of Nanjing, and whether they can rush to Xuzhou in time is indeed a big opportunity and test for Mahan.

Ma Han just looked like a reckless man, but he understood everything in his heart, Liu Goat only mentioned a few words, and Ma Han already understood the meaning. After some hypocritical prevarication, Ma Han still took the oceans that Liu Goat stuffed to him, "Then let's do it, let's go to Xuzhou first, and then you can catch up quickly, as long as I Ma Han has a bite to eat, I will never make you hungry." Ma Han slapped his chest with a crackling sound, and people who are not familiar with it will definitely think that Ma Han and Liu Goat are brothers in life and death.

"If it weren't for those oceans, you would fucking say these things to Lao Tzu? I really think Lao Tzu is a fool. Looking at Ma Han's expression at this time, Liu Goat secretly cursed a few words in his heart, although Ma Han said that there was a smile on his face, but the smile was only floating on the surface, and people like Liu Goat knew at a glance that it was just a false polite remark. Putting Dayang in his pocket, Ma Han, who had left the reporter, didn't even enter the clinic to say goodbye to Tang Cheng, so he hurriedly said goodbye to his soldiers who were stuffed with a belly of steamed buns.

"All gone?" Seeing that only Liu Goat came in alone, Tang Cheng, who was still nesting on the stretcher, asked in a low voice, and after getting Liu Goat's affirmative answer, Tang Cheng, who had been pretending to be seriously injured, finally got up and stood up. "It's too troublesome for this wounded to pretend to be sick, it's too tiring to lie down all day, so it's better to step on the ground." Taking the wet cloth handed by the Chinese medicine practitioner Lao Xu and wiping his face, Tang Cheng knocked a chestnut on the head of the unaware nine catties, and the latter realized that Tang Cheng's injuries were not very serious.

"Doctor Tian, although my injuries are no longer tight, I still want to buy some medicines from you, and it is best to give more medicine for the treatment of trauma, as well as gauze potions or something." Liu Goat didn't know what he was thinking about sitting on the chair with a cigarette in his mouth, and took the shell gun handed over by nine catties and straddled it diagonally, Tang Cheng called Tian Kui to the side. "We are about to go south to Sichuan, and we may encounter a lot of trouble on the way, so medicine is indispensable, and I hope Dr. Tian can help us." Tang Cheng didn't expect to get too many medicines in Tian Kui's clinic, but he still understood the truth of accumulating a lot.

Tang Cheng was a child when he was lying on the stretcher, but this would be a shell gun, and immediately it was like a different person, at least Tian Kui didn't dare to look at Tang Cheng, because he saw different things in Tang Cheng's eyes, and this kind of thing would never be what a child should have. The medicines in Tian Kui's clinic were all purchased by him from the American trading house in Nanjing, and many of the medicine swabs were in English, but those English were not a problem for Tang Cheng at all, and in Tian Kui's almost stupid gaze, Tang Cheng easily found the medicines he wanted from the medicine box.

"Do you know English?" Tian Kui asked a question that even Liu Goat wanted to laugh when he heard it, because Liu Goat knew that Tang Cheng not only knew English, but he also knew Japanese. Tang Cheng didn't say anything to answer Tian Kui's question, just nodded lightly, and continued to rummage through the medicines he needed in the medicine box that Tian Kui had packed. Not only him, but even Liu Goat and Jiujin have large and small wounds on their bodies, and the journey south to Sichuan is not close, and it is always good to prepare more emergency medicines, and those that cannot be used can be sold in Chongqing for money.

Tang Cheng had no idea how much a gold bar could buy a few months ago, but when Tian Kui calculated for him how much money these medicines would cost, Tang Cheng felt the importance of money. "Put these medicines separately first, Lao Xu and Tang Cheng stay here, Jiujin will follow me, and we will meet here in two hours." The money to buy medicine was obviously not enough, but Tang Cheng didn't plan to give Tian Kui a reluctant gift after the holiday, so Liu Goat planned to use his own way to get some money back.
