Everything was ready, and the surgery was about to begin. Perhaps due to extreme nervousness, Lin Yi was fully focused throughout the process, her ears seemingly existing only to catch every brief instruction from Huang Xining, ensuring she could quickly and accurately hand over the needed instruments and complete the auxiliary operations. By the time the surgery ended, she was somewhat dazed, unable to recall many specific details, only leaving vague impressions: after thoroughly disinfecting Gu Fang's leg, Huang Xining made a clean incision, separated the layers layer by layer, exposed the fracture site, then used specially made metal bone plates and screws to fix the broken ends, and finally sutured and closed everything meticulously. It was all orderly, yet like a tightly strung dream.
The entire process lasted nearly two hours. After the surgery, Huang Xining told Lin Yi that Gu Fang was lucky—the actual fracture situation was more optimistic than expected, with no complicated comminution or severe displacement. Without modern imaging, they had only been able to prepare for the most complex scenarios, but in reality, it went relatively smoothly, completing the core steps in less than two hours.
Once the surgery was finished, they only needed to wait for Gu Fang to wake from the anesthetic powder so he could take the medicine on schedule. Sulfa drugs, aspirin, and allicin were all prepared; the first two were to be taken as planned, and the latter as a supplement. Of course, what was most reassuring was the Super Fast Recovery Pill that Ying Baichuan had delivered in time. For this high-tech product from the System, Lin Yi chose to believe.
