Kiln Fish
Jian Mo was instantly energized and no longer felt sleepy.
Perhaps fate was on their side. Shu Guang's condition improved, his shaved belly was dry and clean with little seepage, his heartbeat became more and more normal, and his body temperature rose.
If it weren't for the large gash on his stomach, Jian Mo would have thought he wasn't injured at all, but just sleeping.
It seems that fate is on Shu Guang's side; the lines on his stomach didn't break!
Jian Mo breathed a sigh of relief; it was wonderful that she didn't have to undergo a second surgery.
The next morning, Shu Guang woke up for the first time, opened his eyes to look at Jian Mo and Wu Jiong, and then at the burly orc standing on the other side.
The giant bear grinned weakly and greeted them individually, "Jian Mo, Wu Jiong, Shu Ming."
His cognition is fine, his awareness is very clear, and he even pays attention to social etiquette.
Jian Mo made a mental assessment and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Shu Guang is in really good shape; it's rare to see him in such good condition.
It was only at this moment that Jian Mo realized the name of the rugged orc was Shu Ming.
Shu Ming's eyes reddened again. "Brother."
Giant Bear: "It's alright, I won't die."
Jian Mo listened to Shu Guang's condition with a stethoscope. "He is indeed gradually getting better."
The giant bear grinned again. "Right?"
Jian Mo gently put away her stethoscope. "Don't talk, just rest."
The giant bear didn't even have the strength to speak, "Thank you."
After muttering a few words, the giant bear fell asleep again, falling into a semi-comatose state.
Chapter 97 Kiln Fish
The giant bear that Shu Guang had transformed into slept in the cave for a whole day and woke up at night.
Jian Mo was standing nearby. Hearing the commotion, she rushed over and asked, "How are you now?"
The giant bear seemed more alert, staring at the cave ceiling with its eyes open, and muttered, "I thought I was going to see the Beast God this time."
Jian Mo said wearily, "I probably can't go for the time being."
The giant bear grinned and said, "Thank you so much this time."
Jian Mo: "You're welcome. You already thanked me during the day. Is there anything bothering you?"
Giant Bear: "Thirsty, I'm extremely thirsty right now."
Generally speaking, after intestinal surgery, you can drink a small amount of water after a six-hour period of abstinence.
Jian Mo sure if the giant bear was the same, nor was she sure about the effects of the animal gut thread, so she didn't dare give him too much water. She poured him a small amount, about a third of a bowl, intending to moisten him up.
The giant bear immediately tried to sit up and drink when it saw the water, Jian Mo quickly stopped it. "Don't move! Be careful the stitches on your wound don't come undone. I'll feed you!"
The giant bear sighed, "It's like he's crippled."
Jian Mo: "If you move around too much, you might really be crippled. When I was stitching your wound, I couldn't find suitable thread, so I used the intestines of Pack-Pack Beast. You know those intestines, they're not strong at all, they could burst open with the slightest movement."
Giant Bear: "Understood."
Jian Mo took a small spoon and fed him water spoonful by spoonful.
The giant bear took a sip and couldn't resist. "This spoonful doesn't even have as much saliva as I have, Doctor Jian Mo, why don't you just pour it into my mouth?"
Jian Mo: "You can't drink too much water. Savor it slowly. Once you finish it, it'll be gone, so you won't crave it."
The giant bear lay there and said, "Sigh, I'll never be so badly injured again."
This sighing giant bear was slightly different from the wise Chieftain Shu Guang; Jian Mo guessed he was influenced by his beast form.
Orcs are indeed more susceptible to being influenced by beast form.
For example, Wu Jiong has a relatively calm and restrained personality. When he transforms into a giant wolf, he likes to nudge Jian Mo with his mouth, which is actually a way of being affectionate.
Thinking this, Jian Mo turned and glanced at Wu Jiong.
Wu Jiong asked with his eyes: What's wrong?
Jian Mo shook her head and turned to feed the giant bear water.
He refused when the Qin Sea Tribe wanted to take over the bear; he couldn't let the bear, which he had finally managed to save, fail because of the post-operative care.
After feeding the giant bear water, Jian Mo checked on its condition again.
Perhaps it was truly a resilient animal, but the giant bear recovered quite well; the wound showed no redness or swelling, nor any oozing, and it appeared to be in good condition.
His mental state was also good; apart from the fact that his personality had become a bit more unrestrained, possibly due to the influence of his beast form, there were no other changes.
Jian Mo instructed, "Clan Chief Shu Guang, you absolutely need to rest in bed. Don't move around as much as possible, and whatever you do, don't turn back into human form, and don't sit up. Try to hold it in when you need to use the toilet; if you can't, go while lying down."
The giant bear agreed.
The orc Shu Ming beside him said, "Doctor Jian Mo, don't worry, we'll keep an eye on him."
Jian Mo: "Alright, you guys need to be more careful. They've already been saved. It would be such a waste if they died over something so trivial. They might even be laughed at for centuries after they die."
These words were definitely a threat. No chieftain could tolerate dying from stupidity and having the tribe ridiculed for it.
The giant bear, which had been trying to pupate, immediately became docile upon hearing this. "I really won't move."
Jian Mo encouraged him, "Bear with it. I'm going to sleep now. Call me if anything happens."
Jian Mo hadn't slept for two days and one night. After giving his instructions, he pulled Wu Jiong back to the temporary cave to sleep.
He had a good night's sleep, and when he went to check on the giant bear again, it had recovered even better.
Jian Mo the people of the Qin Sea Tribe to cook some meat soup, with plenty of minced meat in it, and give the giant bear a small bowl of it.
The people of the Qin Sea Tribe hurriedly prepared to go.
The giant bear appears to be recovering well for now, with no signs of its wounds reopening, but Jian Mo unsure if there will be any complications.
Wu Jiong still has matters to attend to with the Riverside Tribe, so he must go back first.
Jian Mo planned to stay in the Qin Sea for a few more days, just in case anything happened, so that rescue could be carried out in time.
It would take too long to get here from the Riverside Tribe; if something were to happen to Shu Guang, he definitely couldn't afford to be delayed for that long.
Wu Jiong agreed to Jian Mo's idea and said he would come to pick him up in a few days.
