Chapter 170: Can Only Save One
Zhou Yan pushed through the crowd, abandoning his usual cultivated demeanor, and shouted loudly, "Back off! Get him inside! Don’t block the door! Hurry—"
Several people stepped forward and carried Yan Xiao and Xiaozhao into the medical room Zhou Yan customarily used. The medical room had only two beds, one for Yan Xiao and one for Zhao Wei, while Xiao Jian and Cheng Cheng, who also had injuries of varying severity, could only rest in chairs brought over from the great hall. The originally spacious room seemed particularly cramped and crowded with the sudden addition of four patients.
Every one of them was bleeding! Zhou Yan simply couldn’t attend to them all and shouted, "Wanxi! Stop their bleeding first!"
Yu Wanxi had worked as a nursing aide in a hospital previously and knew basic medical care. Zhou Yan had called for her just as she began preparing the medical disinfection equipment, and upon hearing his shout, she immediately quickened her pace. Without regard for gender distinctions, she took a pair of scissors and started cutting along Zhao Wei’s trouser leg!
A gash as large as a palm was exposed on Zhao Wei’s thigh, and blood was steadily streaming out! ——
Everyone drew in a sharp breath.
Yan Xiao’s condition was no less dire. Apart from the cuts and lacerations across his body, his wrist was completely broken, as if bitten through by something, held together by only the last strip of sinew.
Yan Xiao’s face was as white as paper, his lips tinged blue. He clutched his wrist tightly, occasionally letting out muffled groans of pain.
Han Jiaojiao’s eyes suddenly reddened.
Zhou Yan’s voice trembled. He looked at Han Yi and said shakily, "Han Shao, I can’t do it ... I can only save one."
