"Ha chirp! Ha chirp!" Frank sneezed bitterly, rubbing his body over and over again according to the master's instructions, until the skin on his body was rubbed red, and the tattered linen shirt was washed again , was allowed to re-disembark.
After going ashore, except for the wet hair and beard, he still looked like a tramp, but the salty fish-like sweaty smell on Frank's body disappeared. It's just that his face was pale and blue, a bit like a dead person, and his whole body was still shaking, as if he was about to faint.
Qin Lun raised his eyebrows in surprise, although it was night, the season was not cold winter. He also went down the creek, and he didn't feel very cold, and although Frank was a little disabled, he was used to working as a coolie, so his physical condition should not be so bad.
"Ahem..." Frank covered his mouth and coughed violently under the invasion of the icy stream. There was an abnormal blush on his face.
Qin Lun's pupils shrank. Although Frank quickly put his hands behind his back, through the moonlight, he could already see the blood from the hunchbacked servant's fingers.
Qin Lun strode forward, grabbed Frank's right wrist, and felt his pulse. Frank struggled a few times, but after seeing the master's stern eyes, he shrank his neck and calmed down.
Letting go of Frank's wrist, Qin Lun frowned slightly, the hunchbacked servant's pulse was extremely weak, if faint, almost dying. But in Wellington's surviving memory, Frank has always been an image of a monster with infinite power.
Seeing Frank's miserable appearance, Qin Lun's heart moved slightly. Even though the former Wellington seldom cared about this loyal servant, as a doctor, the servant's physical condition should attract his attention. It seems that Frank's current physical changes should have occurred after Wellington's death.
Qin Lun closed his eyes and searched for relevant clues in Wellington's remaining memory. After a while, he opened his eyes again. In Wellington's memory, there was indeed no clue about Frank's physical condition. However, Qin Lun found the reason for Wellington's death.
As a young doctor without an official license, Wellington rarely sees patients. Recently, however, it has been an exception. A serious disease spread in several small towns near Wellington's residence. Many poor people in the town looked down on regular doctors, so they had to come to the inexperienced Wellington for treatment.
However, it is clear that Wellington's poor medical skills not only failed to cure these patients, but also infected himself with the disease, and finally died. Frank seldom had contact with patients, and his condition was probably contracted when he took care of Wellington.
Recalling this epidemic, Qin Lun had a cautious expression on his face. This disease has a high fatality rate and a very fast onset. The patient had a high fever on the first day, and coughed up blood on the second day. There was no abnormality on the surface of the body, but the internal organs had already begun to rot, and he would die directly on the third day.
Based on the medical knowledge he has read, Qin Lun is definitely at the level of a doctor of medicine. However, the books he read were all from the earth. In this strange world, it is impossible to determine the type and treatment plan of this disease.
In Wellington's memory, this kind of disease didn't seem to be the first time it appeared in the small town. It had been spread before, and it often appeared and disappeared quickly, and the infection was not as strong as it is now.
It's been the third day since Wellington's death! Frank's ability to survive until now without hemoptysis shows that his physique is indeed much stronger than normal people.
On the other hand... A strange look appeared on Qin Lun's face, which may be due to the effect of the medical alcohol. The concentration of medical alcohol mixed with water should drop below 75%, but it tastes at least above 40%. This concentration just played a role in disinfection and delayed the onset of the disease in Frank's body.
As for why this ignorant hunchback was not poisoned to death by medical alcohol, Qin Lun speculated, either the medical alcohol was not up to standard, or Frank's stomach was "tested" and tempered.
If you don't save him, I'm afraid Frank won't survive for two days! Qin Lun hesitated for a moment, then immediately made a decision. In any case, he needs a helper now, and the loyal servant Frank is the best candidate at present.
Qin Lun turned the jug upside down, ignored the hunchbacked servant's resentful eyes, poured out the alcohol mixed with water, went to the stream to wash it, and poured some stream water into it. Then, he took out the crystal bottle containing the "World Tree Flower Dew" from his arms, squeezed the cork of the bottle, and lightly dripped a drop of flower dew into it.
"Drink it up, don't leave it behind!" Qin Lun handed the jug back to the servant, and ordered with a serious face.
"Oh... it smells so good!" Frank put his garlic nose to the mouth of the jug and smelled it, then drank the "World Tree Flower Dew" diluted with stream water in one gulp.
"Do you feel anything?" Qin Lun looked at the hunchbacked servant with burning eyes, and was very interested in the effect of "World Tree Flower Dew".
"I don't feel much... Wow..." Frank smacked his big mouth with indifference, and just halfway through a sentence, his face changed drastically, his throat throbbed, his cheeks puffed up, and he bent over and vomited.
"Gulu, Gulu!" The hunchbacked ugly man not only vomited incessantly, but also seemed to have an adverse reaction in his abdomen, and immediately ran towards the grass by the stream, clutching his stomach. As an adult, even if he doesn't care about his own image anymore, he doesn't want to take off his pants in front of Qin Lun for convenience.
"This reaction seems a bit intense!" Qin Lun murmured to himself, glanced down at Frank's vomit, and immediately frowned again, "It doesn't look like a parasite, this kind of disease..."
The pile of dirty vomit was mixed with a lot of blood. The weirdest thing was that some dark green jelly-like unknown substances were wriggling slightly, which looked like small groups of slimes.
"Master, what did you give me to drink?"
After a long while, Frank came out of the woods with stilted steps. Compared with before, this time his face was really as white as a dead man.
"How do you feel?" Qin Lun grabbed Frank's wrist again. The hunchbacked servant's pulse was still weak, but it was much more stable than before.
"I don't have any strength in my body, but my body seems to be a lot more relaxed." Frank replied weakly, "Master, your medicine is too strong!"
Qin Lun nodded noncommittally. It stands to reason that "World Tree Flower Dew" is a plant life essence. After being taken by the human body, it should gradually enhance the body's recovery and immunity, instead of suddenly becoming a powerful excretory drug.
The current effect is most likely due to the "virus" in Frank's body, which caused a huge conflict with the life essence of the flower dew, which made the hunchbacked ugly man vomit and diarrhoea. Although the "World Tree Flower Dew" failed to play its own role, it also allowed Frank to rule out most of the "viruses", which was a mistake.
Qin Lun glanced at the precariously hunched servant, sighed softly, uncorked the crystal bottle, and poured a drop into the jug.
Save people to the end, send Buddha to the West! Now that a drop of World Tree flower dew has been paid, the residual poison in Frank's body cannot be allowed to recur. What's more, there are still a lot of things for Frank to do next, how can he be running errands with his appearance, Qin Lun has no time to wait for him to slowly recover.
"Go to the stream and fill it with water. If you are still ill and don't want to die, you can drink the medicine in the jug every hour." Qin Lun handed the wine jug to Frank again, "When you can continue on your way, Let's go back!"
It has to be said that Frank's physical condition is really good. Of course, it is also possible that the second drop of World Tree flower dew finally played its due role. The hunchbacked servant's complexion quickly returned to rosy, and after only half an hour of rest, he was in high spirits.
"Master Wellington, let's go home, Frank feels his strength has returned!" The hunchbacked servant stood up, squeezed his knuckles excitedly, and led the way.
At this time, the sky began to shine, and a ray of dawn dispelled the haze of the forest cemetery, and hung on the treetops of the small forest.
Wellington's home was about five or six miles away from the forest cemetery. It was located on a small hillside with a relatively high terrain, overlooking a small town not far away that was shrouded in morning mist.
This is a small two-story wooden and stone western-style building, which looks quite elegant and unique from a distance. But when you get closer, you can find that the outer wall of the small building is mottled, and the corners are full of grass and moss, which is a dilapidated scene.
"Du... warning, the environment here is different from the living conditions of this world, please leave the apostle as soon as possible, otherwise the body of the law will fall into a state of continuous damage!"
The news from the death list made Qin Lun's face change slightly, he pulled the hunchbacked servant who was leading the way in front, and squinted his eyes to look at the small building again.
"Give me the flagon, you stay here!" Qin Lun took out a silk handkerchief from his vest pocket, sprinkled some diluted toilet water on it, covered his mouth and nose, and pushed open the wooden door of the small building.
The furnishings in the small building are quite simple, and there are several portraits of people hanging on the walls of the corridor, which are the ancestors of the Stan family. In Grandpa Wellington's generation, the Stan family was actually a relatively well-known Xinglin family in this area. It's a pity that Wellington's father had no interest in studying medicine, so he went to do business, and as a result, he lost money continuously and lost all his family wealth.
After Wellington's father died, Wellington Jr. had to rely on selling his property to make ends meet and allow himself to continue studying medicine. In fact, this young man's medical skills are not as inferior as Qin Lun imagined, at least in terms of surgery, he still has the medical talent of the Stan family.
Of course, this is also related to Frank going to the cemetery to steal corpses for his dissection study.
It's a pity that Wellington was inexperienced after all, so he barely managed to treat those patients with the disease, and finally let himself die before he could go out, completely cutting off the blood of the Stan family.
According to Wellington's surviving memory, Qin Lun quickly ran up to the bedroom on the second floor, took out a small cloth bag from the hidden compartment of the desk, and put it in his pocket. Then ran downstairs again, opened a hidden door of a small storage room, and walked along the wooden ladder into the basement of the small building.
This is Wellington's medical research room, as well as his operating room and dissecting table!
