Step, step, step~
Soon, Qingming arrived near the camp hospital.
Before even getting close, he could already hear a series of painful groans.
Qingming's footsteps slowed for a moment before he continued walking forward.
Turning around a corner, he saw many injured soldiers lying on the ground, and the groans were coming from them.
At this moment, dozens of medical ninjas, dressed in white uniforms, were moving among them, constantly bandaging wounds and treating injuries.
As for why they were lying on the ground instead of inside the hospital, the reason was simple—the hospital beds were all occupied, so only the critically wounded could be treated first.
Therefore, in a sense, lying here could be considered a form of luck.
Qingming was observing everything in front of him when suddenly, one of the medical ninjas approached him and spoke, "You must be Qingming-sama, right?"
Upon hearing this, Qingming glanced at the person.
Judging from the chakra amount, this person seemed to be a special jonin.
Such a rank certainly indicated a high status among the medical ninjas.
He nodded and responded, "That's me. And you are?"
The medical ninja let out a sigh of relief. "My name is Shi Changpu. I'm the leader of the third medical team. Captain Nara has already briefed me about your situation. Please, follow me!"
As he spoke, Shi Changpu gestured for him to follow.
Seeing this, Qingming followed him, bypassing the injured soldiers on the ground, and walked directly into the hospital.
Upon entering, Qingming saw many critically injured soldiers lying in the wards. Some were on the brink of death, some were unconscious, and a few had limbs severed.
In short, the situation was dire.
Qingming could confirm that even if these people were all treated, many would likely be retired from active duty.
From a perspective of maximizing benefit, he and the other medical ninjas should prioritize treating those with lighter injuries.
This would ensure the fighting force of the team was maintained as much as possible.
However, they couldn't do this. Nara Keiko would never allow it.
Even though treating these severely injured soldiers offered little immediate return, they still had to be given the highest priority.
Why? The reason was simple.
No one could guarantee they would make it through the war alive.
With so many people watching, if they abandoned the treatment of these critically injured soldiers or gave them half-hearted care, it would inevitably make others think about their own possible fates.
Morale, though invisible and intangible, truly affects every person.
If, during the next battle, everyone only cared about their own safety and shirked their duties, no matter how strong they appeared on paper, they would never defeat the enemy in the end.
Therefore, they not only had to treat these critically injured soldiers, but also had to do their best.
It was similar to the concept of "buying a horse's bones for a thousand gold"—only when others were free of worries would they fight to the best of their ability, ensuring the smooth progress of the war.
With these thoughts flashing in his mind, Qingming, under Shi Changpu's guidance, quickly toured the ward with critically injured soldiers.
After getting a rough understanding of everyone's condition, he directly took over a few patients that were within his capability to treat.
Indeed, within his capabilities.
Qingming's medical skills were essentially built upon the high proficiency of his "Chakra Surgical Knife," "Healing Hands," and "Minor Illness Extraction Technique."
For ordinary critical injuries, he could effectively perform the "forceful healing" technique.
However, when it came to handling complicated cases, he certainly wasn't as skilled as professional medical ninjas.
Thus, he only took on those who appeared seriously injured but whose wounds weren't too complicated.
This ensured both efficiency and the maximization of his ability.
Shi Changpu had no objections to his choice.
After all, though the experienced medical ninjas required several people working together, setting up sealing arrays to heal such wounds, Qingming's intervention could save them much manpower and allow them to treat even more injured people.
Once they confirmed their tasks, the two parted ways.
Qingming entered the nearest ward.
Inside, there was a teenager, about fifteen or sixteen years old, lying on the bed, his body badly burned in several places. Qingming immediately recognized that this was the result of some fire-based ninjutsu.
Additionally, his chest, abdomen, and sides had several blood holes pierced by kunai, along with slashes. Even though the wounds were bandaged, blood was still seeping out.
Truth be told, surviving with such injuries could only be attributed to sheer luck.
Without wasting any time, Qingming roughly examined his wounds, then picked up the initial examination report. After confirming that there were no significant discrepancies, he began treatment.
First, he dealt with the blood holes.
Qingming waved his hand and summoned the "Chakra Surgical Knife," cutting away the bandages.
Ignoring the blood quickly flowing from the wounds, he raised his hand to form hand signs and used the ninjutsu—Minor Illness Extraction Technique—to carefully sense the internal damage to the boy's organs.
The "Minor Illness Extraction Technique" wasn't just used for sensing and extracting toxins—it could also allow the user to sense the condition of various internal organs of the target.
Of course, this required the technique to be at an advanced level, such as level 6!
Just like now, after performing the technique, Qingming could clearly assess the damage done by the kunai to the internal organs of the boy lying in the bed.
Though his medical ninjutsu focused on "forceful healing," "targeted treatment" was still essential.
At the very least, this helped him save a lot of chakra.
Soon, Qingming completed his assessment.
After a moment of contemplation, he devised an initial treatment plan.
After confirming everything, he immediately began the treatment process for the boy on the bed.
Level 7 of the "Chakra Surgical Knife" was activated. Qingming swiftly cut away the necrotic tissue around the wounds.
Then, he used the "Minor Illness Extraction Technique" once again to remove any remaining impurities and foreign objects inside the boy's body.
Once the wound was completely cleaned, he didn't hesitate and immediately activated the "Healing Hands" technique, channeling a large amount of Yang chakra into the boy's body to stimulate the regeneration of the flesh and organs near the wounds.
With his "Healing Hands" technique at level 9 (maxed out), the effect was almost instantaneous.
As soon as his palm touched the wound, the surrounding flesh began regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In no time, the wound on his abdomen was healed.
Although the flesh there was still a bit tender, it had healed.
Seeing this, Qingming nodded in satisfaction.
He then proceeded with the same method for the second wound, then the third and fourth.
By the time he finished treating all of the boy's wounds, an hour had passed.
As for the external burns, others could handle those. There was no need for him to do everything.
Looking at the boy, whose breathing had stabilized, Qingming let out a long sigh.
Although such meticulous work wasn't difficult for him, given the advanced level of his medical ninjutsu, saving someone from the brink of death still consumed a lot of mental energy.
However, with the proficiency panel in place, his effort was always rewarded proportionally.
During that one hour, his "Chakra Surgical Knife" and "Minor Illness Extraction Technique" both gained over 300 proficiency points each.
This speed was more than twice as fast as practicing them on their own.
Qingming nodded in satisfaction, called others to take over, and then headed towards the next ward.
