After that I stayed in Kweiyang to recuperate. Fortunately, the bullet had passed clean through the lower abdomen without doing any serious damage. It was just summertime, and Kweiyang was very hot, and my wound was very serious, but, by using a bottle of disinfectant given to me by the medic, I had no infection for three months.
後來我留在貴陽養傷，真幸運，子彈穿過小腹，但沒傷到要害；而且時值盛夏，貴陽很熱，我的傷口又大，靠著美國軍醫留給我的一瓶消炎藥，居然三個月沒發炎。
