The Junior Martial Sister Has a Spatial System

Chapter 14

The next morning at dawn.

Su Yue awoke early and freshened up. After a night of rest, she felt energized and refreshed.

At this time, she was strolling around the military camp, doing some light exercise. Someone must have informed others in advance, as no one stopped her, but there were still a few scrutinizing gazes directed at her, making her feel slightly uncomfortable. So she quickly returned to her own tent.

"Little Five, where did you go? I was just about to call you for breakfast," Xuan Little Four came out of her tent, holding a meat bun in one hand, "Come quickly, I've cooked some millet porridge for you, and there's also Aunty Chen's pickled vegetables."

"Yeah, got it. Where's Third Master?"

"Third Master went to see the Great General to make some arrangements. He told us to wait here for him."

Su Yue nodded and entered her tent, seeing the porridge and small dishes on the table, which were very satisfactory.

"Little Five, are you going to perform surgery on that General today?"

"Mm-hmm."

"Oh, then... how confident are you about it?" Xuan Little Four asked carefully.

"What's wrong?" Su Yue looked at him in surprise.

Xuan Little Four scratched his head sheepishly, "It's just... Third Master said that this person's injury seems very serious, and that General... looks quite formidable..."

"You don't trust me?"

"Of course I trust you, how could I not trust you? I'm just... a bit worried."

"As long as you trust me, that's enough."

"Oh..."

"Little Five, have you finished eating?" Xuan Little Three walked in with a smile, "Everything is arranged over there. When shall we start?"

"Mm, we can go now," Su Yue finished the last sip of porridge, wiped her mouth casually, and stood up.

After speaking, the three of them left the tent.

"Little Five... brother, sorry to trouble you so early in the morning," Su Li was pacing outside Su Yi's tent. Seeing the three masters, he immediately came over to welcome them.

"Mm-hmm."

The three entered the tent directly. Su Huan, Su Yu, and two elderly men who appeared to be military doctors were attending to Su Yi, who was lying on a bed. A long table was set up beside the bed, fully equipped with surgical tools. Xuan Little Three had arranged everything well.

"Everyone please wait outside. Only Third Master needs to stay and assist me."

"These two military doctors' medical skills are also quite good. Young brother, do you want to keep them as assistants?" Su Yu asked with concern.

Su Yue glanced at the two military doctors, whose eyes were filled with expectation, but she shook her head, "It's not that I don't trust your medical skills. It's just that this surgery is extremely dangerous, and Master Brother and I need to be absolutely focused without any potential for accidents or mistakes. So, my apologies." She then took out her small medicine box and began arranging her tools.

The two military doctors looked crestfallen, but they didn't leave immediately.

"Everyone out. Let the Xuan Divine Doctor and the young brother concentrate on the surgery," Su Huan spoke, and the others finally dispersed one by one.

Before leaving, Su Huan gave Su Yue a deep look, feeling that she seemed very familiar.

"Master Brother, let's start. Did you give him the Anesthetic Powder?"

"Of course, do you think I would overlook such basic preparations? Does Third Master have such poor eyesight?"

Su Yue ignored him and fed the patient a Detoxification Pill. She took out the golden needles from her medicine box and quickly inserted them into a few acupoints on his chest. After a moment, she said, "Master Brother, you pull out the arrow. I'll assist you."

"Alright."

Xuan Little Three washed his hands with strong liquor, then gripped the broken arrow shaft and pulled with a little force. Blood and fluids gushed out of the wound.

Su Yue poured the Spiritual Spring Water directly onto the wound to clean it, and when the wound opened, she used tweezers to spread the flesh apart, revealing the barbs.

She carefully separated the flesh and blood bit by bit, while Xuan Little Three rotated the arrow shaft in coordination, gradually exposing the barbs. The two worked in perfect harmony, and after a moment, the entire arrowhead and barbs were fully exposed. Xuan Little Three quickly pulled out the broken arrow as blood spurted out.

Su Yue immediately sprinkled on the Blood Coagulant and pressed down with her hands. Xuan Little Three promptly prepared the suturing tools and handed them over.

Su Yue began suturing with a needle and thread. As time passed, sweat gradually emerged on her forehead. Her lips were gradually turning pale.

Xuan Little Three closely monitored Su Yi's reactions, noticing Su Yue's increasingly pale complexion. This kind of surgical operation was extremely taxing on the mind and body. The wound's proximity to the heart, with its abundant blood vessels, and the need to suture layer by layer through the flesh made it extremely difficult. He took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her brow.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Su Yue finally let out a long breath of relief, her hands slightly trembling. Ah, it seems she still lacked sufficient training. On a daily basis in the mountains, apart from treating small animals, she rarely had opportunities for such intensive treatment. She would need to enhance her training in the future.

"All done?" Xuan Little Three observed Su Yue's expression and asked.

"Mm-hmm, the next two days will still be a critical period. We need to closely monitor for any signs of fever. After these two days, he should be fine."

"That's great! Quick, you should sit down and rest for a bit first. Look at how pale your face is." He poured her a cup of tea, "I'll let the others in. You've been working hard for these past few hours. Leave the rest to me."

Su Yue nodded.

Soon, Su Huan, Su Li, and the others hurried in. Su Huan looked at Su Yue's pale lips, stunned and unable to speak. It was Su Yu who spoke first, "How is my father?"

Seeing their hopeful yet fearful gazes, Su Yue revealed a rare, gentle smile. "The surgery was very successful. You can all rest assured."

Upon hearing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

Su Huan immediately bowed, "Thanks to the young brother's assistance, please accept Su Huan's..."

Before he could finish, Su Yue stood up, while Xuan Little Three had already helped Su Huan up. "This is absolutely unnecessary, absolutely unnecessary. My junior martial brother cannot accept such a grand gesture from the General."

"It is I who was rude. The young brother's kindness today is something the Zhenguo General's Mansion can never repay. If there is anything needed in the future, I, Su Huan, will serve without regret even unto death." Su Huan's eyes were red, making a solemn promise.

Su Li and Su Yu also bowed with reddened eyes towards Su Yue.

"No need, it was only proper. Let's stop here for today. The surgery was very successful, but the next two days will still be critical. We need to constantly monitor for any signs of fever or post-operative infection."

The two military doctors immediately acknowledged her words. For such a difficult condition, they had been completely helpless. Even the Xuan Divine Doctor only had a 30% chance of success. This young brother, despite his tender age, possessed such remarkable skill - it was truly admirable.

"After the patient's condition improves, I have some private matters I wish to discuss with the old General. Please ensure the old General can spare me some time then."

Su Huan was momentarily stunned, but quickly responded, "Absolutely, absolutely."

"These can help the patient recover."

With those words, she handed a small cloth bag to the two military doctors, then turned and left the tent, with Xuan Little Four following behind. The others were left dumbfounded for a moment.

"Ah... this is..." One of the military doctors opened the bag and exclaimed, "My goodness, century-old ginseng, lingzhi mushrooms, snow lotus..."

The others were also stunned by this generous gift. Where did this wealthy benefactor come from?

Xuan Little Three: This wasteful little junior sister, really... giving away so many precious items to outsiders like that. Ah ah ah ah ah, I'm going to cough up blood. No, I have to take them back. This minor injury doesn't need so many tonics. She's not afraid of nosebleeds, is she?

Su Yi lying on the bed: Heh heh, minor injury? This minor injury almost killed me.
