"It’s sunken … how deep? I feel a … Psst! ….. Probably half my knuckles are so deep … "

"It bulges here like a slope … one knuckle higher …"
"It feels soft here …"
"Hard here feels a little rough …"
……
Dagonet listened carefully to Norman’s description for a while before saying, "Although the other party has mastered certain medical knowledge, there are three basic principles for the treatment of unhealthy bone injuries: reduction, fixation and functional exercise. From your description, the other party obviously realized the fixation, but did not know about the reduction. According to your description just now, I built a model to judge that your right arm will be deformed even after recovery …"
Although Norman didn’t understand Dagonet’s words very well, he still didn’t understand the general meaning. If Thomas did this, his right hand would be deformed even if it was healed!
After expounding Norman’s overall injury to his right arm, Dagonet said, "Your overall injury to his right arm is like this, but I am a little puzzled."
"Your right arm was broken yesterday and it’s not even a day now, but I modeled it according to the situation you just described and found that several parts have already completed fiber connection and one wound has formed the original callus! It usually takes a week for the fiber connection to appear, and it takes more than two to three weeks for the original callus to appear. This is incredible … Are you sure that there is no mistake in your description just now? "
….. If Dagonet’s former words Norman can barely understand the general meaning, then now he can’t understand these words, and he looks stupid.
"What is fiber connection? What is the original callus? What is’ incredible’? ……”
Dagonet was too excited just now, and his major is not only a field that is good at communicating with people, but also he didn’t pay attention to the language. Now Norman didn’t realize his words were wrong until he asked him.
Although the information shows that the progress of Norman learning is amazing, these technical terms are not understood by ordinary people on the live broadcast. What about Norman?
So Dagonet put it another way.
"I mean, your right arm doesn’t seem to have been broken yesterday, but it seems to have been broken for a month."
Dagonet can draw a conclusion from this.
"Your body’s self-healing ability is twice that of normal humans."
He was afraid that Norman would still understand and added an explanation, "That is to say, it takes two days for a normal person to recover after being injured, and you only need one day."
Is that so?
Norman is the first time to hear such a statement.
He knows that he is stronger than everyone in the village, but he doesn’t know that his recovery from injury is better than others. Of course, this is not the same as his rough skin, and he is not injured very much. Naturally, he doesn’t know that he and others can recover from injury.
But it’s better to recover faster than others, so the injury won’t affect my ability to take the entrance exam, which is a good thing.
But before Norman was happy, Dagonet added, "But this may not be a good thing for you now."
Self-healing ability is better than others is not a good thing?
Well, Norman has mastered this new archaic vocabulary.
"In order to prevent your right arm from becoming deformed, your right arm needs to be reset. If you are an ordinary person, there is no problem, but your self-healing ability is too strong. Now resetting will bring you great pain, which is a bit like breaking your bones again. Of course, this is a metaphor. It is not so painful from pure pain, but it is more painful for many people than breaking bones."
So this is what Dagonet was going to say.
Norman beat his chest with his left hand intact. "I am not afraid of pain!" ……
Well, even though Norman is not afraid of pain, he injured his right arm. It is obviously the way to complete Dagonet’s treatment by himself. Fortunately, there is a second person in this room.
"Thomas Thomas Thomas …"
Norman went to the bed and pushed the old drunkard several times to wake him up.
"Well …"
Thomas asked him vaguely with sleepy eyes, "What do you want to do?"
"Thank you for helping me with my injury."
Norman first thanked Thomas, which he learned from his recent study, and then said, "But can you do me another favor?"
Thomas closed his eyes and seemed to want to try to fall asleep again, but soon he opened them again. He should have been woken up and couldn’t sleep any more. The good bed sat up and muttered to Norman, "I dragged you in after you bought me a drink. Don’t expect me to help you any more."
Norman didn’t talk nonsense and said directly, "I’ll give you three silver."
As soon as Thomas’s eyes stared, he immediately became refreshed and became lingering.
"What do you want me to do for you?"
Norman pointed to his right arm and said, "You help me take this down. You can’t cure it correctly. Even if you tie me up like this, it will become deformed. I want to get it again."
Although he has learned to thank, there are obviously some things that he has not learned to speak, which is too direct.
"I’m not right? I used to be a doctor and cured many people … "
Thomas was very upset when he heard Norman’s words, but he didn’t care about Norman when he saw Yiner’s share. He let Norman sit by the bed and carefully tied two sticks for Norman.
Norman was surprised to hear Thomas grumble. "You are a doctor?" He never expected that this old drunkard, who was so depressed that he slept in the street, was once a doctor.
You know, doctors are very high-ranking artists, and there are no specialized doctors in Ashley village. The villagers can always find the priest in the village church to deal with any problems. It is said that there are specialized doctors in another manor dozens of miles apart.
But how did a doctor with high status become an alcoholic?
"Of course"
Thomas looked quite proud when he realized his old job. "I once cured a real aristocrat!" Big noble! Not your village Barton master that hillbilly aristocrat … "
Norman usually chats with Thomas when he is idle. Thomas also knows about Ashley and Master Barton.
The two men chatted and chatted, and the wooden stick was also removed. Norman taught him to command Tomas just now, and Tomas watched Yiner’s share and listened to his command, but he complained while working.
"I’ve never heard of a broken hand being treated like this …"
"What is touch? ……”
"No, no, I can’t force your hand to break! ……”
"You’re simply torturing people, not treating them. You see your head is sweating! ……”
"So it won’t be deformed? ……”
……
As the treatment went on, Norman’s forehead sweat kept dripping down his cheeks.
Dagonet is absolutely right. For him with super self-healing ability, this kind of reset work is really very painful.
When Thomas broke his bones, Norman could clearly feel the muscles. Oh, no, Dagonet said that the "fibrous connective tissue" was torn, and the pain was even more painful. Thomas, an old man, often dared not use too much force, which led him to tear his fibrous connective tissue bit by bit, like sawing it back and forth with a small saw, which was more painful than a thousand times. The cold sweat on Norman’s forehead was so painful that it soaked all the strips of his head.
But fortunately, Tomas became more and more skilled and finally felt a little better in the back.
"… ok"
Thomas finally finished his work, and Norman’s right arm was tied again, but different from the previous one, two wooden sticks were folded into four. Norman’s arm was no longer as straight as a wooden stick, but bent one on his chest without hanging his neck. In addition, the wooden stick and arm were padded with cloth strips, and the length of the cloth strips varied according to different parts.
So it won’t be deformed. Norman looked down at his command, and Thomas thought with satisfaction.
