The blade cut through the hard black skin, and blood that was about to freeze slowly flowed out, mixed with traces of viscous black liquid.

Cao Yicong let out a cry of pain, and the alien limb suddenly became more violent. Li Liangbin and Wang Yong pressed it together, making a gasping hiss. Although both of them were tall and strong men, and tried their best, they could hardly hold it down, and they had to be careful not to be splashed by the black liquid.

But as long as they put in more effort and more effort, they can complete their tasks.

For Gu Jun, strength is only one of them, as well as eyesight, calmness, skill, stability and so on.

He was kneeling on the ground with one knee, and the small open medical box was placed beside him, and all the equipment and medicines were arranged.

Because the planned osteotomy plane was only about 5m away from the scapula, the anteroposterior isometric flap he designed was very short, and he cut the skin and deep fascia along the incision line with just a few cuts. The above body tissues have not mutated yet, the skin is the skin, and the deep fascia is the deep fascia.

But this alien limb is constantly struggling, and the scalpel in Gu Jun's hand should change accordingly with the sway caused by its struggling, just like a small boat sailing on the rough sea, it cannot be overturned by the storm , but to ride the storm.

"This is not... my hand..." The foreign limb was being amputated, but what Cao Yicong got was not comfort, but another kind of pain, approaching delirium.

After pulling up the skin flap, Gu Jun searched for the brachial artery and vein on the inside of the biceps. The gray sky cast a dim light, which was hard to compare with the shadowless lamp. There was no first aid, second aid, etc. beside him, only himself these hands.

The left hand holds the dissecting forceps to clamp the blood vessel to expose it, and the right hand holds the suture needle threaded with catgut, double-ligates the blood vessel, and then cuts it off with a scalpel.

Sweat was already dripping from his forehead, every stroke had to be done delicately, a little carelessness would cause heavy bleeding.

Li Liangbin looked more nervous than the surgeon, be careful...

He and Wang Yong didn't understand how to pick blood vessels from the pile of flesh and blood in the dim light and blurred operation area.

There are still various treatments to be done... But they didn't see the scene of blood flowing like a column, and there was still some surgical field in the not-so-clear surgical area.

Under such conditions, Gu Jun cut off all the arteries and veins to be cut, and then injected 0.5% procaine to the proximal end of the osteotomy plane for local closure, and then sealed the radial nerve, median nerve and ulnar nerve. They are all cut off, and these nerves can still retract naturally to the proximal end of the osteotomy plane, followed by muscles.

The two onlookers watched and sighed for Gu Jun, the needlework is really good, and the fingers are really as firm as a rock.

At the same time, they became more and more worried about Deputy Captain Cao.

"Hands...not mine..." Cao Yicong struggled even more, his face was almost purple-black.

Gu Jun has always been paying attention to the situation of the injured, and from time to time he would say a few words of encouragement, or talk a few words to check the other party's mental state, and at this time he said: "Deputy Cao, hold on a little longer, it will be fine soon .Now you need to show your will, no problem."

Cao Yicong's complexion kept changing, he was fighting against the dark forces, an ordinary person could no longer bear it, "Cut it off... cut it off..."

At this stage of surgery, the difficulty has become the cutting and pruning of muscles.

Gu Jun's hands have gradually gotten used to the rhythm. The hands are fast and the blade is faster. After cutting off the muscle, he pulls it together with the posterior skin flap to the proximal end, trying to make the stump a cylindrical shape, so that the installation and use of the prosthesis will recover quickly after the operation. Better; the blade cuts the periosteum circularly toward the osteotomy plane, and then peels off the periosteum to the distal end.

There was no periosteal stripper in the small medical kit, he did it with the handle end of dissecting forceps.

No blood flowed out of the operation area, but more black liquid flowed out, and the lesions of the foreign limb became even weirder.

It's not just the blood vessels that are twisting, it's not just the muscles that are twisting, even the bones are twisting, I don't know what kind of structural changes are happening.

Gu Jun knew that time was running out, and if he didn't remove this strange limb, Vice Captain Cao's life would be in danger.

Li Liangbin and Wang Yong were sweating profusely, and their strength couldn't last long, and they were still holding on with one breath...

But they finally saw the bone layer, the humerus, the long bones of the upper limbs, which are normally very hard.

This humerus is almost bounded by the planned osteotomy plane. The upper part is of normal bone color, while the lower part is the abnormal color of the bone surface with black spots looming. This mutation speed is much faster than those ordinary people with heterohand syndrome admitted to the medical department.

At this point, the next step is to cut the bone.

Use a high-powered bone saw to cut the bone horizontally.

That's the case with a bone saw, or any saw.

Now, Gu Jun held the Kalop scalpel with his right hand in a grasping position, fixed his eyes on the exposed bones in the operation area, and took a deep breath.

"Ah..." Cao Yicong yelled, struggling, and trying his best to support him. Li Liangbin and Wang Yong pressed him with all their might, trying to fix the limb as much as possible. The three of them are already at the end of their strength, every blood vessel and nerve is tense, and they will be broken at any moment and scattered all over the ground.

Gu Jun closed his eyes, his mind quickly entered that state, and then opened them again.

At this time, he seemed to become one with the scalpel, the knife was the continuation of the hand, and the blade was his will.

The biceps and triceps of his arm exerted force suddenly, the forearm, wrist, palm, fingers, blade, blade, this force was connected into a line, penetrating and falling, and swung horizontally towards the humerus in the operation area , Kaga! On target.

There was a resistance, but as soon as he gritted his teeth, the strength in his hand became stronger, and the blade suddenly had a penetrating feeling, breaking through the bone surface

Li Liangbin and Wang Yong were dumbfounded, the situation was very different from what they expected.

Their reason has always been reservations about whether this small knife can saw bones. If it can, it should have the gorgeous effect like the old seal.

But the fact is that there is no spark, and there is no strange light, just like chopping melons and vegetables, going in and coming out again.

All of a sudden, the limb was separated from the wounded, Cao Yicong yelled in relief, and Li Liangbin and Li Liangbin threw the limb aside with the last of their strength, avoiding the splashing black liquid.

But immediately, Gu Jun's eyes narrowed slightly, Li Liangbin and Wang Yong were also startled, only Cao Yicong didn't realize it.

Perhaps, this humerus can be cut off by a scalpel, first because the blade is sharp enough, and second because the bone itself...

The bone tissue inside seemed to be evacuated, drawn to the end of the abnormal limb lesion, rotted and sucked.

Cavity, there is a cavity inside the bone stump.
