Chapter 9

They had been patrolling outside the city for a day and a half, and it was clearly impractical to return to the city. Fortunately, in the original host's memory, there was a large farm just ten miles away. The group lifted the stretcher and moved forward slowly. When leaving the cottage, Greta took extra care and took a detour to check the place where the wild dogs had torn. His heart immediately felt heavy:

It was a grave. The burial was very shallow, just a two-foot-deep pit, with stones lining the edges of the pit—now, the body that had been buried was mostly exposed outside the grave.

They had come hastily and lacked tools, so they could only continue forward. After crossing a ridge, everyone sat down to rest and drink water, and Captain Karen also propped himself up from the stretcher:

"Little Greta, give me some water..."

I knew it would be like this... Greta sighed inwardly. If it were in his previous life, before and after abdominal surgery, he would have educated the patient and their family about various common knowledge. Here, the normal procedures were all disrupted, and he had to roll up his sleeves and do it himself:

"No, you can't eat anything now! You can't drink water either!—Really thirsty? Even if you are, you can't!"

"Then... when can I drink water?"

Greta: "..."

According to the standard, after 2-3 days of surgery, when the gastrointestinal tract resumes peristalsis and排气 (passes gas), one can start on a liquid diet. However, the cessation of peristalsis is mostly due to anesthesia, and partly due to the surgical impact. The surgery just now was performed without any anesthesia, and although the intestines were damaged, the healing potion quickly cured them...

So, how long will it take to resume peristalsis?

Surgery textbooks, physiology textbooks, various papers. Guidelines published by the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism and the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, edition after edition. Countless references flashed through Greta's mind.

In front of him, Uncle Karen looked expectantly, and around him, the warriors held their breath and stared—

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

In the afternoon sunlight of early summer, a cold sweat trickled down Greta's back.

For nearly a hundred years, no one has performed intestinal surgery without anesthesia. Without theoretical basis or experimental data, how can one determine the fasting period?

With the knees?

Only the most primitive method would do! Greta gritted his teeth, knelt on one knee, and leaned forward with his hands on the ground:

"Uncle Karen, don't worry, I'll listen!"

He lifted the leather armor and clothes covering the patient, turned his head, and pressed his ear to Captain Karen's abdomen. The sour sweat and the smell of blood hit him, and Greta almost fainted—

Ah, why don't I have a stethoscope!

The 3M stethoscope he bought for a high price! The cute little red one!

The Yuyue stethoscope issued by his hospital! Even if it costs only one-tenth of the 3M, and the clarity is a level lower, it's still better than nothing! Little Yuyue, come to my hand! I'll never look down on you again!

If that doesn't work, even a potato chip can! I can't publish in top journals, but at least I can use it as a stethoscope!
