Chapter 1182 No Anesthetic

When these words were spoken, Freya's tears flowed even more urgently.

Looking at Bradley's handsome face, which was almost pale due to excessive blood loss, her heart ached as if it was about to stop.

"Hurry up. He can't afford to delay any longer."

Freya's voice was filled with an unquenchable sob.

The way down the mountain was even more difficult to walk. There were thickets of thorns all the way, and the path was full of broken stones. If it weren't for the fact that Gabriel and the others were well-trained elites, they might not have been able to endure such a rough path.

But fortunately, they had torches. Although the journey was bumpy, they successfully went down the mountain and entered the village.

The villagers had originally felt guilty towards Gouzi's family because Freya had run away.

But when they saw a group of people coming to their door on their own initiative, the joy on their faces was hard to hide.

"Gouzi, your bride has come back by herself!" The woman also saw Freya and quickly shouted towards Gouzi in the house.

Soon, Gouzi stumbled out. His body was smeared with the medicinal materials that Freya had asked him to get. He looked so simple-minded and cute.

"Old... Wife, sleep... Sleep!"

Gouzi was still thinking about sleeping. He giggled and pounced towards Freya.

Seeing this, Gabriel coldly pulled out his pistol and aimed it at Gouzi. His voice was as cold as poisoned ice, "Get out of my way!"

After saying that, he pointed at the woman and said, "You, take us to the village doctor's house."

The woman's legs went weak with fear when she saw the gun in the other person's hand.

As for Gouzi, he thought it was a toy gun and was about to come over and grab it with a look of novelty on his face. "It's fun. Lend me the gun to play with."

When Gabriel saw that the other person was about to grab the gun, he frowned deeply, raised his hand, and fired a shot into the night sky.

The sound was astonishingly loud and close. After a moment of confusion, Gouzi suddenly covered his ears and cried loudly.

"Gouzi, don't be afraid!" The woman rushed over and hugged her son.

This shot also scared all the villagers. No one dared to come close, for fear that the man would go crazy and shoot again, and they would get shot and lose their lives.

The woman hugged Gouzi and kept comforting him. Gabriel lost his patience and coldly repeated, "Lead the way!"

"Okay, okay. I'll lead the way. I'll lead the way!"

The woman was trembling all over. She walked in front and led the group of people to the village doctor's house.

Soon, the woman stopped outside a wooden house and said in a trembling voice, "It's right here. You can just call her. She'll come out and open the..."

"Bang!"

Before the woman could finish speaking, Gabriel kicked the door heavily.

The wooden door, which was already somewhat old, couldn't withstand such a blow and fell down with a crash.

Gabriel rushed into the yard, found the room, and kicked the door open again.

Unfortunately, the people in the room were being intimate at that moment.

Suddenly, someone broke in, and the woman's screams rang out frequently.

Gabriel coughed awkwardly twice and turned around with a cold expression.

The people in the room were in a hurry to put on their clothes. After they were almost done tidying up, they said angrily, "Who are you? Breaking into a private house in the middle of the night. This is..."

Before the person could finish speaking, they stared wide-eyed at the gun on their forehead. Immediately, their legs went weak, and they knelt on the ground.

Freya walked in and signaled Gabriel to put away the gun. Then she looked at the two embarrassed people and said, "Which one of you is the village doctor?"

The woman huddled on the bed said, "It's me. I'm the village doctor."

Freya approached her, and her voice still had a sob in it. "I'm also a doctor, but I don't have any medical supplies on me. Now my husband is injured. Can I borrow yours?"

The woman didn't dare to say no. These people had blatantly broken into a private house and had guns in their hands. If she refused, she wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow.

"In the second compartment of the cabinet on your left, the medical kit is inside."

Freya went to look for it immediately. Sure enough, she found it. When she opened it, there were all kinds of medical instruments inside.

She looked at the woman again and said, "I'll borrow your room."

"Y-yes, you can." The woman said. The next second, she left quickly with the man.

Freya knew that Bradley was a clean freak, so she first took off her own coat and spread it on the bed. Then she signaled Gabriel and the others to carry the person onto the bed and let him lie on his stomach.

"Go and bring a basin of warm water." Freya said as she took off Bradley's clothes.

She moved extremely carefully, for fear of touching the dagger inserted into the flesh and blood.

The dagger should have been pulled out on the spot, but because the injured area was special, and the blood was flowing too urgently and there was no medicine to stop the bleeding, it could only be left in his body for the time being.

But even though she was careful, she still inevitably touched his wound when taking off his clothes.

Seeing that the blood was flowing even faster, and with the strong smell of blood rushing into her nostrils, Freya began to feel top-heavy again. If it weren't for her willpower holding her up, she simply couldn't bear it.

She had originally thought the wound was serious when she looked at it in the dark. Now that his clothes were off and under the light, Freya clearly saw that the injury was much more serious than she had imagined.

It could be said that the knife was only 1 cm away from the heart. It was easy to take out the knife, but when the knife was pulled out, it would inevitably widen the wound, and she couldn't guarantee whether it would touch the 1-cm line.

Therefore, she could only perform an operation.

Freya looked at Gabriel, her voice tight and hoarse. "The knife can't be pulled out. We need to perform an operation. You first ask someone to help me set up a temporary operating room. He must have the operation immediately. Otherwise, even if I have excellent medical skills, I won't be able to save his life."

Gabriel didn't expect it to be so serious, and his mood became tense as well. "Okay, I'll do it right away."

In this way, Gabriel found the female village doctor again and asked her to set up the operating room as quickly as possible.

But the conditions here were too poor, and there were no medical equipment at all. Freya could only perform the operation with a scalpel and a dagger.

She sent everyone else away, leaving only the female village doctor to help.

The female village doctor usually only treated the villagers for minor illnesses like headaches and fevers, or performed some simple small surgeries. She had only used the scalpel once, to treat the knee injury of a child in the village who had skinned his knee.

Now that Freya asked her to help with the operation, she was so scared that she was completely stunned.

"I can't do it. I don't have any clinical experience. I don't know how to perform this kind of operation."

Freya pursed her lips and said coldly, "You don't need to perform the operation. Just hand me the things."

Hearing this, the female doctor heaved a sigh of relief.

Freya didn't have time to waste words. After cleaning the blood from Bradley's wound, she said to the female village doctor, "Anesthetic."

"No, there isn't any."

In a place like this village, there was no anesthetic.

Freya frowned deeply. Without anesthetic, Bradley would have to endure the pain of the operation. This was something that an ordinary person couldn't bear, let alone Bradley, who was so seriously injured now.

Just as she was hesitating, a hand gently held her wrist. Freya lowered her eyes and saw that Bradley was smiling at her.
