Chapter 1050: Smooth

When Su MO heard his sister’s words, he retracted his move in time and separated from the old man.
The old man probably could tell that they did not barge in maliciously, so he did not exchange blows with Su Mo.
Su MO was not an unreasonable person. He cupped his hands and bowed to the other party. “Sorry, there was a misunderstanding just now. Please forgive me for trespassing on your house.”
The old man did not say anything and entered with a cold expression.
He came to the courtyard and threw the cloth bag on his shoulder to the ground.
“Senior.”
Su Xiaoxiao greeted him politely.
The old man only glanced at her and ignored her.
Su Xiaoxiao began to size up the old man.
He was tall and burly, about the same as her grandfather, Qin Canglan. He had gray hair and a beard. There were ravines left behind by time on his face, and his eyes were a little sinister.
Looking like this, he would definitely scare a child to tears.
No wonder the villagers were afraid of him.
It was said that one could not judge a book by its cover, but most of the time, special people would be ostracized and neglected.
The old man opened the cloth bag and poured out a pile of herbs. Some were freshly picked, and some were dry.
Su Xiaoxiao took a closer look. There were sanqi and white fungus… These were herbs to stop bleeding.
There were also dandelions and yellow lilies that could reduce inflammation.
Chuan Qiong and Su Mu had pain relief effects.
He even picked the mandala. If Su Xiaoxiao was right, he planned to make anesthesia.
He had just gone out to prepare the herbs for Wei Ting to pull out the arrow.
Su Xiaoxiao put on her silver gloves and walked over to help the old man sort the herbs.
It was not that she was afraid that the old man would attack her, but she was pregnant. It was best not to come into contact with some medicinal herbs that could revive blood and stasis.
Seeing that she had sorted it correctly, the old man did not stop her. Su MO moved the two small stools in the central room over and gave them one each.
The two of them sat down. After sorting the herbs, Su Xiaoxiao washed them.
The water in the water tank was almost empty. Su MO picked up the shoulder pole, hung two wooden buckets, and went to the back mountain to get spring
VVdLeL.
The old man took the silver needles from Wei Ting’s body and took all the oil lamps in the room, preparing to pull out the arrows for Wei Ting.
Su Xiaoxiao silently turned on a small flashlight. The brightness instantly overshadowed the oil lamp.
The old man was speechless.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked innocently.
She didn’t want to expose her equipment, but wasn’t a life at stake?
It was dark. If they made a mistake, her beautiful husband would be gone.
Fortunately, the old man did not ask further.
The place where Wei Ting was shot was on his back. The old man flipped Wei Ting over.
The broken arrow had already been cut flat by the old man. He applied some medicine paste to the wound to stop the bleeding and inflammation.
An arrow wound was different from a stab wound. The arrowhead had a barb. It would hook out the flesh in lumps and cause a huge second injury.
Moreover, the arrowheads used by the Southern Wilderness palace had two more rows of barbs than ordinary arrowheads. If they were pulled out of a person’s body, that person would die.
Under the circumstances, the best way was to cut open the wound.
The old man took out a dagger and placed it on the oil lamp to burn and disinfect.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked. “Senior, why don’t… I do it?”
The old man paused and lowered the dagger in his hand.
Su Xiaoxiao had brought a first aid kit.
She opened the first aid kit and disinfected her hands with disinfectant. She put on disposable sterile gloves and took out the scalpel.
There was no table here. Su MO found a wooden board to hold it.
Su Xiaoxiao injected Wei Ting with local anesthesia and began to operate on him.
It was very difficult to remove the arrow and avoid damaging the nerves nearby.
Su Xiaoxiao calmly cut open the wound.
The courtyard was very quiet, and the evening wind carried a hint of coldness.
Su Xiaoxiao was focused and didn’t stop.
The old man looked at Su Xiaoxiao in shock. He probably did not expect a young little girl to be a healing sage.
At this moment, the young man and his friends squatted under a big tree and silently observed the old man’s mud house.
A seventeen-year-old young man said, “They’ve been in there for a long time. They haven’t come out yet, right?”
A 15-year-old companion echoed, “That’s right. We’ve been guarding here all night. ”
The young man said, “Go, go, go. Don’t jinx it! That man is quite skilled. He might be able to defeat the old man!”
The third companion said, “Why aren’t they out yet?”
The young man thought of the girl who had let him go and was a little worried about her safety.
“Dongzi, what are you doing!”
The eldest young man called out to him.
The young man said, “I’ll go take a look!”
His companion, who was only a year older than him, said in shock, “You’re crazy! Aren’t you afraid that the old man will eat you! I, I, I… I saw him eat children with my own eyes!”
The young man frowned. “I’m not a child anymore!”
“Don’t go!” His companion, who was only a year younger, pulled him back.
The others also advised him.
“That’s right, Dongzi. We’ve only met them by chance. Why take this risk?”
“Besides, we were beaten up.”
He would never admit that they were the ones who tempted fate first.
The young man decided to go over.
The others did not dare to join him and immediately took three steps back to maintain a life-and-death distance from him.
The young man thought that he could not defeat the old man. It was better to outwit him.
“I’ll set fire to him and smoke the old clapper out. You’ll call for a diversion.
Draw the tribe out and cause chaos. I’ll take the opportunity to rescue them.” As long as they did not come into contact with the old man, anything else was fine.
The others agreed.
The young man went home and secretly lit a torch. He slipped out of the back door and boldly went to the old man’s house.
Just as he was about to throw the torch on the old man’s thatched roof, the old man suddenly opened the door.
The young man looked at the old man who was like a cold-blooded monster in the night in a daze. His legs went weak from fear. “I… I’m not here to set fire.” With that, his vision darkened and he fell to the ground and fainted.
His companions, who were hiding behind the tree, were frightened.
In the next moment, something even more terrifying happened.
The old clapper picked Dongzi up and carried him in like a lifeless sack.
The surgery went smoothly.
Su Xiaoxiao was so focused that she didn’t notice that she was drenched in sweat.
“What are these?”
An unfamiliar and old voice suddenly sounded from behind Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao had a fright!
She turned around and looked at the old man who had appeared behind her. She asked slowly, “Senior, you can speak?”
Also, it was not good to scare people.
He shouldn’t do that next time.
Fortunately, the surgery was over. Otherwise, she would have been so frightened that she would have stabbed Wei Ting again.
The old man said casually, “Yes.”
Then why didn’t you speak just now…
Su Xiaoxiao pointed at what the old man was staring at and said, “Scalpel, specially made. If you want, I can give you a set.”
The old man said, “Yes.”
The old man pointed at Su Xiaoxiao’s small flashlight. “What night pearl is this?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s not a night pearl.”
As for what it was, it was a little difficult to explain.
Su Xiaoxiao realized that the old man was looking at her without blinking. “Senior?”
The old man said, “You haven’t finished.”
Su Xiaoxiao blinked strangely.
Was there? She was done. “If you want… I can give you one?”
The old man nodded. “Yes.”
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless..
