Nope...Shed blood has one meaning...It means blood leaving a body...

In English, "shed blood" has two possible meanings, because in "shed blood" the word "shed" can be read either as an adjective (as if to say "blood that has been shed") or a verb (as if to say "to shed blood").

If you really want to play that game Petronski, shed blood then has three (or more)meanings...

If you happen to like to store blood in your shed, you have, 'shed blood'...If you happen to like the color of blood and use blood to paint your shed, you have shed blood there...

Or perhaps your pitbull's hair will turn into blood next spring...Then, when the old growth falls out, your dog will shed blood...

Yea, there's lots of meanings for shed blood...
