Nineteenth Century Medical Guide

Safit's impulse caused the worst fire accident in Paris, France, in the second half of the nineteenth century.

In fact, the moment he saw the police, he had already given up, and began to persuade himself to be thick-skinned, and survival was more important than anything else.Even if his reputation is ruined and his wife and children are separated, he will be sentenced to less than 5 years in prison for fraud at most.

Besides, the fraud was unsuccessful, and he didn't get any money.Even if the forgery crime of forging documents is counted, the sentence will be 1-2 years longer.After he is released from prison, it is not difficult for him to find another job to support himself given his age of less than 40 and his clerical skills.

But how can an ordinary person who was originally peaceful be an opponent of a rogue, and it is difficult for an ordinary person who was originally peaceful to have a resolute character.

Li Ben's backbiting in a way of shirking responsibility, as well as the scolding of Ashley and the audience afterwards, made him see no hope, and all he had was ridicule and scolding on the road to the rest of his life.Of course, there was also the reason why he had completely lost confidence in life. In short, when he came back to his senses, he had already hugged two policemen, and his body was covered in flames.

The irony is that the cripple who led him into the abyss and stepped on his feet viciously is now gone.

As early as Safit smashed the kerosene lamp with a stick, and then threw the kerosene on Ashley, Li Ben took advantage of everyone's distraction and left quietly.

If he was walking with a limp like usual, it would be impossible for Safit to miss him, because his second target was Li Ben, and he had already locked on the target before, so he couldn't run away with crutches.But in the blink of an eye, the person disappeared from his sight, so Safit could only continue to choose the police to vent his anger
In fact, Li Ben didn't think much about it at all during this kind of flash and flint, as long as he should bear as little responsibility as possible and be punished as little as possible, everything else doesn't matter.

But by coincidence, Li Ben was knocked to the ground by those policemen who wanted to protect Ashley, and then accidentally avoided Safit's sight.But he wasn't stupid, he saw the situation clearly after falling to the ground, and didn't get up in a hurry, but climbed out of the VIP box along the wall with his hands and feet.

For him, confidence, hope, and dignity are all unimportant, as long as he is not arrested, as long as he can survive, he can do whatever he wants.And crawling on the ground like this is equivalent to bedbugs, it is definitely the easiest and least psychologically burdensome behavior.

Li Ben didn't care about the fire behind him at all, and as soon as he escaped, he knocked over the servant who was trying to catch him with a crutch, and limped towards the gate.

After going back and forth, he became one of the first people to escape from the theater.

Although the deflagration sent his hat away, burned several holes in this decent woolen coat, and had burns on his hands, but at least his legs were early, and he managed to run past the spectators and survived.

Rejoicing, Li Ben couldn't help but stop and stare at the burning opera house in a daze, lamenting that he had narrowly escaped death again.

"This burning really burned away the old foundation of art in Paris."

"You're an audience!?" Before Li Ben could speak, the ashen-faced Barnes pulled his arm and dragged him out, "The fire is too big, there is danger here at any time, don't stay here, go!"

"Don't pull, don't pull, I'm lame, I can't walk fast."

"What time is it, don't be in a daze if you don't go fast. And those who escaped later, listen carefully, leave here quickly, leave quickly!!!"

"Everyone, stop crowding, so no one can get out."

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, the people in front will be breathless!!!"

The structure of several gates is not complicated, and it seems to be crumbling, but it maintains a delicate balance with the crowd.

Some people were pressed hard against the door panel, and it was difficult to breathe; Inside, just can't get out.

No matter how hard the crowd behind them is, no matter how painful the people in front are, they are so painful that they can clearly hear the sound of their own bones breaking, these locked doors just remain unmoved.

There is life outside the door, and death inside the door. No matter how vicious a person is, when he sees this, he can't help but feel some compassion: "The fire is too big, it's not enough to rely on you guys. What about the water? Those who need water to put out the fire, and the people at the fire station? Where did they all go?"

"Fire station?"

Only then did Barnes remember that he needed to report the situation to the fire station: "It's broken! It's broken!!! Mason, you are here to save people, I'll go to the sentry box and call!"

"Let me save people? How can I save people??"

"No way, I have to send a telegram, or I will be dereliction of duty! Both of us will lose our jobs!!!"

Before Mason could react, his partner turned around and threw himself into the darkness of the street.Against the backdrop of the soaring flames, the darkness was even darker and more powerless.The surrounding flames dispelled the winter chill, and even felt a little warm, making cold sweat drip down his back.

"How can I save this?"

"Let's find someone to pry open the door first."

"I tried it, it didn't work, I couldn't find a useful tool at all."

"Then go one by one."

Standing beside him, Li Ben was not in a hurry to leave. Thinking of the past, he shook his head helplessly, and then suggested: "Also, you have to quickly mobilize the surrounding carriages and send those who are still alive to the hospital." .Oh, by the way, go to the main palace hospital, the doctors there are reliable!"

"Oh, that's right, people with burns do have to be sent to the hospital."

Ma Sen hastily passed by some helpful passers-by and spectators, looked at the several carriages parked on the side of the road to watch the fire, and shouted: "Driver, don't go, don't go! All empty carriages are left behind. Sir, your legs and feet are inconvenient." , do you want to go first?"

When he wanted to go back to find Li Ben and let him leave first, the cripple disappeared again.

Li Ben knew his identity, and the fire was so big, it was really not safe to stay around the theater.Now he not only lost Laura, but also became the fraudster that Ashley said. Although this woman must die, it is hard to guarantee that she did not tell others about it.

Li Ben shuddered at the thought that she was the daughter of the Minister of Police.

Must leave Paris at once!

He walked around the main road and walked into an alley, found the direction of the small hotel where he was staying, and was about to lift his foot to leave, but a voice came from behind him: "Mr. Li Ben, I didn't expect you to come to Paris, so interesting .”

With the familiar voice and the familiar way of speaking, Li Ben's head buzzed: It's Mick!

Why did this plague god come to the theater?Shouldn't he be watching Carvey in the hotel and the main palace hospital?
But this voice is clearly his, there is no mistake!
Li Ben's body trembled slightly, and after barely stabilizing his balance, he strode forward without hesitation.Now it is difficult for him to live no matter whether he answers the call or not, it is better to pretend that he did not hear, and stay as far away from him as possible.

"Where do you want to go in such a hurry?"

Mick just leaned against the wall, took out a pipe from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth: "...I advise you better not to go, it's safer to stay here."

The flame from the match marked his cheek. It was indeed Mick, but it was different from the usual calm Mick.There were two bloodstains on his face, and the left side of his cheek was so red that he couldn't even open his eyes.

Even children can see that he is weak, and it is hard to tell who will win and who will lose.

But Li Ben didn't look back at all, even if he saw it, he wouldn't dare to bet.He knew that Mick carried a gun and a dagger with him, and his crutch was no match for him at all.The only thing he can do now is to run. If he is really injured, running to create distance is the safest way.

"Oh." Mick took two puffs of cigarettes, looked back at the opera house filled with smoke, and said weakly, "Why don't you always listen to me."

"."

"You will suffer a loss if you do this."

"."

Li Ben didn't believe him at all. Now he just needs to know that the voice is getting farther and farther away from him. As for the content of the speech, whoever wants to listen to it!As long as he passed the intersection in front of him and turned into the alley behind him, he would have the confidence to get rid of the other party.

Not to mention that Mick won't have another chance when he gets on the main road later.
Li Ben's body secreted a lot of adrenaline. Seeing that the two deadlocks were resolved by himself, he had already thought of his lines when he said goodbye to Paris.The words and sentences should not be too long, and the selected words should be elegant, precise, and full of tonal changes.
At such a critical juncture, he didn't know what was going on in his head, maybe he was influenced by the opera just now.

After walking another three or four steps, Li Ben endured the pain caused by the friction between his broken leg and his prosthetic limb, and continued to speed up his pace, throwing Mick's bitter persuasion further and further away.

Suddenly another voice came from in front of him, thicker, hoarse, more magnetic, and more authentic French: "Mr. Mick, long time no see."

"Who?"

The black shadow is a full head and a half taller than him, with broad shoulders, fat belly, and the smell of food all over his body: "You are. Are you that cook?"

"It's really me."

"Why are you so haunted?"

Li Ben was stuck in the alley by two enemies and completely collapsed: "Half a year has passed, I lost a leg, and was dragged to be cannon fodder. The result? Not only did I not get paid, but I was killed." .And you! I just said something unpalatable, and I apologized, why are you still chasing me? Why???"

"I came with Dr. Carvey, and I want to let go of my obsessions when I return to my motherland."

Alphonse, who was slowly walking out of the shadows, was obviously also injured. His entire left arm was exposed and suffered severe burns: "I met you here by accident."

"Then quickly let me live!" Li Ben breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned forward and said, "The guy behind wants to kill me, as long as he lets me pass, I will agree to whatever you say."

"I want to complete the duel that I didn't complete before." Alphonse's tone was very calm, as if telling his last words before death, "This is what I want now, and it is also the wish I most want to fulfill in my life. "

"what?!!"

"It was the Lord who guided me back to Paris, it was the Lord who guided me to meet you, and it was the Lord who made me complete this duel that has been delayed for more than half a year."

Li Ben is a mouse who just wants to survive no matter what difficulties he encounters. He doesn't understand what Alphonse is obsessed with means to him.Likewise, Alphonse did not understand why the crippled dwarf could turn a blind eye to dignity.

"Even without a title, you are still a Prussian, and a Prussian should not refuse a duel."

Alphonse grabbed his wrist: "But it's different from before, at least you still have choices this time. You can choose your weapon, and you can also choose the time of the duel. Although I personally hope to start now, these are still up to you." You decide."

Li himself was fine, but his strength was definitely not as strong as that of Alphonse, who weighed more than 200 pounds. He only felt that his wrist was clamped by iron clamps, and he couldn't move.

"It's nothing to do with me, is it?" Mick who was standing at the end of the alley said suddenly, "I'll leave first if there's nothing to do."

"Aren't you going to the hospital? You are seriously injured."

"." Mick glanced at Li Ben, then looked back at the empty opera house, and shook his head, "I'm very tired, I want to have a good sleep. You go straight ahead, there are two The one in black has been waiting for me, just show them the ring."

"Thank you."

"There's nothing to thank, I don't want to owe others favors, now it's clear."

At this time, Kawei, who had just finished the seminar at the Zhugong Hospital, wanted to use his spare time to give Shanwang a small talk in the ward, so that the gap between him and the others would not be too wide.

When talking about Bizet's laryngeal cancer, someone suddenly called out, attracting many people's attention to the window: "Look, it's so bright there!"

"That direction is the Paris Opera House."

"It's the Opera House indeed, the light. The light shouldn't be."

"It's a fire!!!" Sedieu, who had just left the hospital, ran back to the ward with his equipment box. "The fire station just sent a telegram saying that the Paris Opera House suffered a fire that had never happened in a century. The fire is still fighting ahead." , but the situation is not good."

They are all surgeons who have worked in the hospital for many years. Fire means casualties, and it is still a huge opera house that can accommodate 2000 people.

"Have you ever been treated for burns?" Cedieu scolded himself for being too stupid as soon as he opened his mouth, "Oh, I forgot you were on the front line. Although we are some distance from the Opera House, there are no other large hospitals around it, and the wounded must be Will come to us, be prepared."

While Carvey was glad that several assistants were in Paris, he was also thinking about how to deal with the next situation.

Burns from fire are different from burns from battlefield ammunition. Although burns are shallow in depth, they are too wide and easily infected.Ammunition burns are often deeply embedded burns such as small particles and fragments, which can heal slowly after debridement and disinfection are done to remove foreign objects.

No matter how you look at it, burns were far more troublesome in the drug-starved 19th century.

"Shanwang, come!" Kawei called him to the side, "You work hard, go to the hotel and call everyone over now, but don't come back in a hurry."

"Ok?"

"After calling people, go to the fish market to see if there are any fish for sale."
