Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 786 Helpless (4000)

In an instant, the originally noisy banquet became silent.

"???"

"!!!"

Everyone turned their heads to look at Boss Cao who had suddenly fallen into a coma. The expressions on their faces became more and more complicated, but most of them were still unclear.

Wu Liang also hurriedly put down his wine glass and walked over quickly.

Cao Chun was still very vigilant at this time, and when he saw someone approaching, he immediately held down his weapon, but he relaxed a little when he saw that it was Wu Liang.

"Son and brother, what's going on with Duke Ming?"

Wu Liang asked with concern.

"I can't tell. I only know that Brother Meng De told me before that I had a headache. He thought it was from drinking too much wine, so he taught me to order someone to make some tea to sober up. Now that I have eaten the tea, But suddenly passed out without warning."

Cao Chun said to Wu Liang in detail with a bitter face.

"Headache?"

Wu Liang thought of Boss Cao's headache.

However, as far as Wu Liang knows, this disease is also called migraine in later generations. Although head wind disease is very painful when it occurs, and in severe cases, you may even be unable to resist hitting your head against the wall to relieve the pain, but under normal circumstances it should not cause headaches. It is right for people to pass out directly, especially this kind of sudden fainting.

And this kind of "sudden fainting" symptom is usually caused by a foreign body growing in the head, oppressing the nerves and blood vessels, causing some functions of the brain to suddenly shut down... It is also commonly known as a "brain tumor" in later generations.

However, "brain tumors" can also be divided into benign and malignant.

Naturally, Wu Liang was unable to determine whether Boss Cao's symptoms were caused by a brain tumor, but if the current situation was really related to a brain tumor, it should definitely be a benign brain tumor.

Because Boss Cao lived until 220 AD in history, that is to say, there are still more than 20 years of life span, and it is impossible for people with malignant brain tumors to live for such a long time, let alone like Boss Cao One year before his death, he was able to personally lead an army to attack Jingzhou.

Speaking of brain tumors, Hua Tuo's treatment plan fabricated in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" suddenly became reasonable, because even later generations would use surgical resection when treating brain tumors of conscience.

However, this plot is only a fabrication after all. With the medical level of this era, it is impossible to complete the craniotomy.

The real history is that after seeing Boss Cao, Hua Tuo only told him that "this disease is difficult to cure in a short period of time, and even long-term treatment can only prolong life", and then he returned home on the grounds that his wife was sick. Later, Boss Cao warned Hua Tuo many times that he always found an excuse to refuse to visit the doctor. In the end, Boss Cao became furious and ordered someone to go to prove that Hua Tuo was just lying and evading, so he was arrested and thrown into prison to be tortured to death.

Just when Wu Liang was thinking so.

"What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and find the medical officer accompanying the army for diagnosis and treatment!"

Cao Chun didn't lose his composure because of this, and then shouted loudly at a personal guard in the hall.

"promise!"

A personal guard responded and ran out quickly.

The medical officers who accompany the army are actually military doctors. This profession has appeared as early as the Western Han Dynasty, and it is recorded in the "Han Shu". The level of medical officers is usually not high. Basically, they can only prepare some emergency plasters for the treatment of bruises and hemostasis, or some standing Chinese medicines for the treatment of common diseases. It's because his eyes are smeared, he can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Is there no military doctor with better medical skills in this era?
Of course there are, but such senior doctors do not go out with the army, but stay in the Imperial Hospital in the rear.

Only when there is a certain scale of disease in the army, or if an important officer in the army gets sick, can the senior doctor in the Imperial Hospital be hired.

However, as far as Wu Liang knows, there is currently no imperial hospital system established in Cao Ying, and the Imperial Hospital of the Han Dynasty has completely disappeared during several times of relocation of the capital and wars. After all, doctors in this era are still lowly. If they are unemployed, they cannot enjoy fair and just treatment at ordinary times. Once there is turmoil, no one will take care of them. Naturally, those who can escape will have already escaped, and those who cannot escape will have died long ago.

This is why Boss Cao had to go outside to find Hua Tuo when he got sick. In this era, no one paid attention to military medical care, even Boss Cao was no exception.

However, this phenomenon is not without historical reasons. In this era, soldiers who were injured and lost too much blood could not be rescued, and wound infections were even terminally ill. In addition, many armies always used weapons and arrows to increase the casualties of the enemy when they fought. Adding "golden water" and other easily infected materials, such as the arrow in Guan Erye's arm, has this ingredient. Many times, ordinary soldiers can only wait to die when they are injured, so the use of military doctors is even smaller.

Then Cao Cun quickly came to Zhang Xiu, cupped his hands and said, "General Zhang, you are familiar with this area, could you please send someone to call all the doctors in Wancheng and the surrounding areas to help Brother Mengde for diagnosis and treatment."

"Look at my brain! Yes, yes, I will go out and order someone to find a doctor!"

Zhang Xiu also responded quickly, but at the moment he didn't have any personal guards around him, so he had to quickly go outside to arrange the matter.

Wu Liang took advantage of the opportunity to come to Cao Ang and Boss Cao, looked at Boss Cao with his eyes closed and said, "Brother Zixiu, can you ask me to take a look first?"

"You know medicine too?"

Cao Ang immediately raised his head and asked.

"I don't understand, but I have been walking outside all year round, so I know some first aid methods."

Wu Liang quickly shook his head and clarified, "Also, if Duke Ming's condition is related to evil spirits, maybe I can help a little..."

"Please."

Before Wu Liang could finish speaking, Cao Ang made room for him.

Wu Liang then stretched out his hand to check Boss Cao's breath, but his breathing was relatively steady.

Then he held down Boss Cao's wrist, closed his eyes and carefully felt Boss Cao's pulse. The pulse was also steady and strong, and it seemed that his life should not be in danger for the time being.

This was actually within Wu Liang's expectations.

Boss Cao did not die here in history, not even Zhang Xiu rebelled, and he lived on for more than 20 years, so naturally there should be no danger to his own life this time.

"Duke Ming's pulse and breathing are very normal, it seems that there is nothing serious."

Wu Liang pondered and said, "And I didn't feel any signs of evil spirits entering my body."

"Then why did my father suddenly pass out?"

Cao Ang hurriedly asked.

"I can't explain it clearly. It may take a doctor with high medical skills to come and make a diagnosis to find out the cause."

Wu Liang said helplessly.

"..."

Cao Ang immediately fell silent, and after a while he frowned and asked, "Your talented brother, is there any way you can wake up my father?"

Cao Ang is a person with the overall situation in mind, and he knows what kind of impact the sudden passing of Boss Cao will have during this period.

The first is the impact on the morale of the army under his command.

In this era, the commander is the soul of the army, and any situation of the commander will affect the morale of the army. Even for superstitious people, it will be said to be an ominous omen, and if you are not careful, it will cause a terrible roar;

The second is the attitude of Zhang Xiu, Nanyang counties, and even Liu Biao.

Zhang Xiu and the magistrates of Nanyang counties surrendered under pressure, not necessarily out of sincerity. Now that Boss Cao passed out in front of them, it is tantamount to showing weakness in front of them. These people will inevitably have some psychological activities.

And Liu Biao, as a tycoon in Jingzhou with the power to fight Boss Cao, although he didn't make any reaction this time, it was tantamount to handing over Nanyang, but he was definitely not willing.

If this news reaches Liu Biao, he will definitely react.

If any one of these two worries occurs, it may bring an extremely heavy blow to Cao Ying. If the two worries appear together, it will definitely be a disaster for Cao Ying.

So Cao Ang knows better than anyone that it is more important to wake up Boss Cao than anything else!

"I can try it, but I can't guarantee it will work."

Seeing Cao Ang's expression, Wu Liang also guessed what Cao Ang was thinking, and then he was a little worried, so he said seriously.

"Anyway, try it first!"

Cao Ang said quickly.

"Ah."

Wu Liang pinched Boss Cao's acupoint with his thumbnail, and explained to Cao Ang while exerting some force, "The acupoint is one of the important acupuncture points in the human body. Pricking this acupoint can refresh the mind, relieve spasm In the past, someone in the Huan army fell into a coma, and I used this method to wake them up, and it has been tried repeatedly."

Cao Ang didn't make a sound, just watched Wu Liang's actions quietly.

Unfortunately, Boss Cao didn't show any reaction under Wu Liang's operation, and he didn't even frown under the conditional firing.

After pinching like this for about a full minute, Wu Liang's hands felt a little numb.

And Boss Cao even had a trace of blood oozing out from Wu Liang's nails, which showed that Wu Liang really used all his strength.

Cao Ang naturally also pointed out that there were bloodstains.

But at this moment, he still didn't make a sound, and never raised any objections.

"Can not be done."

Wu Liang knew that at this point, pinching people would no longer be able to play any role, so he had to let go, and then took out the "Returning Soul Fragrance" from his bosom with some reluctance, and dripped out a whole drop Apply it under Mr. Cao's nostrils.

This thing is not only an antidote to "Lost Soul Fragrance", but also has the effect of refreshing the mind.

And such a dose is already the largest dose Wu Liang has ever used. Usually, this thing only needs to be shaken up and down the nostrils, and some smells will float into the nasal cavity, which is enough to remove the effect of "Lost Soul Fragrance".

"This is the soul-returning incense, which can also teach people to stay awake."

Wu Liang still did not forget to explain to Cao Ang.

"You talented and virtuous brother, just use your method. You don't need to explain it to me. As long as it can wake up my father, any method is acceptable."

Cao Ang obviously didn't have any interest in these things at the moment, and he still stared at Boss Cao eagerly, hoping that he would wake up as soon as possible under Wu Liang's actions.

However, after wiping the "Returning Soul Fragrance".

Wu Liang and Cao Ang waited patiently for another minute, but Boss Cao still didn't respond.

"This……"

Wu Liang had to sigh, and said to Cao Ang with a wry smile, "Brother Zixiu, I've tried my best, I'm afraid I still have to wait for the medical officer to come to make a diagnosis."

"Ah."

Cao Ang nodded slightly, but pulled Wu Liang who was about to get up, "Your talented brother, you can stay here and wait with me."

"it is good."

Wu Liang responded.

Although Cao Ang didn't show too much panic, Wu Liang still keenly sensed his inner unease from his actions.

Although Cao Ang is the successor carefully cultivated by Boss Cao, he has not yet reached the time to be his own.

The most important thing is that what happened today happened too suddenly, and he was not prepared for it at all. It is reasonable for him to behave like this.

In fact, Wu Liang himself was a little messy at the moment.

Although he knows this period of history very well, it is only limited to the things recorded in the history books. Such things that are not recorded in the history books are equally unexpected to him.

The only thing in Wu Liang's mind now is that since Boss Cao still has more than 20 years to live, nothing will happen this time, so it's only a matter of time before he wakes up.

He just didn't know whether there was any direct connection between Boss Cao's sudden coma and the Wancheng battle.

For example, is Zhang Xiu's rebellion related to this?
Are the deaths of Cao Ang, Cao Ti, and Dian Wei related to this?

and also.

In history, Boss Cao forced Zhang Xiu’s aunt, Mrs. Zou, to be suspicious. Such Boss Cao obviously has no ability to take concubines...

……

Waited for about a quarter of an hour.

Cao Ying's medical officers came here first, there were six medical officers in total, the youngest seemed to be in his thirties, and the oldest was about the same age as Jia Xu, but he still walked vigorously.

These medical officers carry a small wooden box with them, which contains some standing Chinese medicine and diagnostic and treatment tools.

However, while these people were feeling the pulse of Boss Cao, while listening to Cao Ang's detailed description of Boss Cao's situation, their faces were full of confusion. How to heal.

In fact, if they were ordinary soldiers, they might still dare to try.

But it was Boss Cao who was lying here at the moment. Since they couldn't figure out the illness, they just didn't dare to try it indiscriminately. Otherwise, if something went wrong accidentally, they would have to be buried together.

"you……"

Cao Ang frowned, obviously dissatisfied with their performance, but it was inconvenient to have an attack at this moment.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the hall in due course.

It was Zhang Xiu who brought some people in from the outside. There were about three people, two men and one woman. The two men were not young, and they were also carrying an old wooden box. The woman...

Wu Liang's eyes lit up slightly.

The woman looked to be less than 30 years old. She was wearing a plain overhauled undress on her upper body and an apricot-yellow long skirt that reached her ankles on her lower body. She wore a pair of high-headed silk shoes on her feet. The posture she came in was even more aristocratic, and she looked like a lady from the gentry, and she stood out from the crowd compared with the two male doctors who were traveling with her.
