Chapter 43 - 42 Post House
"Speaking of practicing medicine," Li Ang unconsciously caressed the medicine chest beside his seat. The chest contained a set of surgical tools he had asked Cheng Juxiu to craft for him, including scalpels, hemostats, and obstetric forceps.
Unfortunately, he had returned the nightmare bell to the Yizhou City Garrison after the White Dog case. Otherwise, possessing a bell that could plunge people into a dormant coma would have greatly increased his confidence in performing actual surgery.
However, Chang’an City is so large, and it’s the location of both the Academic Palace and the Garrison headquarters. There should be many types of Mutated Objects there. Perhaps one exists that could solve disinfection, hemostasis, and anesthesia all at once. As long as these three fundamental prerequisites for surgery are met, I wouldn’t be limited to just orthopedic massage...
Li Ang stared at the medicine chest, lost in thought, when Chai Cuiqiao remarked, "Right, I didn’t see Yu Miaoshui today. I thought that on the last day, he would come, symbolically bearing thorns on his back, to beg for your forgiveness."
"That’s to be expected."
Li Ang said indifferently, "Ever since the news of my recommendation letter spread, he’s had no way out. We’ve already fallen out completely, and he has offended me beyond reconciliation. Even if he were to come bearing thorns, he wouldn’t earn my forgiveness. It’s better for him to just wait at home for news—whether I get into the Academic Palace or not."
Li Ang didn’t consider himself a magnanimous saint. Since Yu Miaoshui had tried to take advantage of the Li Family’s recent bereavement to seize their property and extinguish their line, and had even directed local ruffians to cause trouble at the Security Hall, he deserved to pay the price.
He probably prepared himself mentally for that.
At this thought, Li Ang couldn’t help but smile.
It was said that ever since news of Li Ang obtaining the recommendation letter had spread, Qing’an Hall had closed its doors. Yu Miaoshui had shut himself in at home all day, unseen by anyone.
