Chapter 1113: Chapter 1112 Chief Physician
“Child, you must hold on!”
On hearing that there was no doctor on the train, the old man’s face grew more anxious, but he was helpless, only able to watch as his grandson was enveloped in pain. His hand grasped the child’s small hand, trembling, but he dared not use force, for fear of adding to the pain.
“On this line from Sanshui to Hua City, the only stopover is in three hours at Fengnan City. I wonder if the child can last until then…”
Originally, this line had only Sanshui and Hua City, but over the years, the worry that sothing might happen on the train, coupled with public demand in Fengnan City, led to the establishnt of a stop there.
But the train had just started moving not long ago; it would take another three hours to reach the next station, and they were worried the child wouldn’t be able to hang on that long…
Just when everyone was extrely anxious, unsure of what to do, a slightly resigned yet confident voice suddenly sounded in the carriage.
“Why not… let
give it a try? I’m a doctor.”
Hao Jian’s calm voice ca from her seat, and in the next mont, almost everyone paying attention to the situation turned their gaze to Hao Jian. Their eyes were filled with doubt and excitent.
“Hao Jian… what are you doing?!”
Lin Qingxue, who was originally by Hao Jian’s side, looked flustered upon hearing this sentence from Hao Jian. She seed unsure if she had heard correctly; Hao Jian actually said he was a doctor?!
“Haha! With your appearance, you’re also a doctor?!”
Upon hearing Hao Jian’s words, Lai Zhiwen was the first to jump up in opposition, like a kitten that had caught a fish’s tail, his face revealing a look of triumph.
“Old man, may I take a look at your grandson?”
However, Hao Jian had long since ignored Lai Zhiwen’s voice, so he paid no attention to his words. Instead, he walked over to the old man’s side, squatted down, pointed at the little boy, and softly asked.
“Tch, what nonsense.”
Seeing Hao Jian once again ignoring him, Lai Zhiwen’s face was full of displeasure. Back ho, no one dared to disregard his words, not even people who spoke a word against him would dare show up.
He hadn’t expected that the first ti he left his hotown, he would encounter soone like Hao Jian, whom he found extrely detestable, turning his internal displeasure into caustic sarcasm.
“Kid, you say you’re a doctor; does that an you really are one? Even if you are, you should know how difficult it is to treat pneumonia!”
“Without the support of advanced dical equipnt, even the top doctors in the country can’t do anything!”
Everyone, upon hearing this, their faces flickered a few tis, only to sigh helplessly. What Lai Zhiwen said was indeed true; nowadays, most doctors are learning Western dicine and rely largely on dical equipnt. Without such support, their dical skills can’t fully manifest.
“Young man, you give it a try…”
The old man originally showed a hopeful look, but it was doused by Lai Zhiwen’s words. He just held a mindset of giving it a try and allowed Hao Jian to attempt it.
As long as Hao Jian could help his grandson last until they reached Fengnan City’s hospital, that would be enough. If possible, he hoped his grandson’s pain could be alleviated…
“Try to keep my child holding on until we reach the hospital. This child has had a tough life since he was young…”
Hao Jian, hearing this, lightly laughed, patted the old man’s shoulder, and took out a chief physician certificate from his wallet, smiling as he said, “Old man, I’m a chief physician, after all. I’ve encountered this kind of condition quite a few tis. You needn’t worry, I specialize in Traditional Chinese dicine, not Western dicine.”
Hao Jian’s dical skills actually leaned towards Traditional Chinese dicine. He had also touched upon Western dicine, but it was under his master’s compulsion. His master would often say that one should learn from many sources.
“Chief physician?!”
Upon seeing Hao Jian’s professional certification, many passengers’ faces changed dramatically. This young man seed to be only about twenty-four years old and had already obtained the chief physician’s certificate?!
This… how is it possible?! The position of chief physician is a high-level title, one that so doctors spend the better part of their lives struggling to achieve. But this young man actually…
“Damn, am I seeing things?! This young man is actually a chief physician?! That’s a professor-level figure!”
“Chief physician, huh…”
Seeing Hao Jian’s certification, Lin Qingxue’s eyes flickered with a hint of warmth showing. She ca to Hua City this ti because of an opportunity to study at the Chinese dicine Hospital, thus enrolling at Hua City University.
All because she heard that the doctors in the Chinese dicine Hospital in Hua City were the most powerful. Her major also leaned towards the dical profession. In her eyes, such people were idols!
“This kid…”
Even the normally arrogant Lai Zhiwen knew what this chief physician title represented. In Huaxia, the most scarce resources were male preschool teachers and doctors. And high-level doctors were even scarcer, especially soone like Hao Jian, who reached the level of chief physician at such a young age!
It’s no exaggeration to say that even his father, upon eting Hao Jian, would be reverent and respectful. Who doesn’t have a small ailnt or two in their life?
And aren’t the ones who treat these minor ailnts doctors?!
“Young man, then hurry up and help my child!”
The old man, not being very educated, didn’t really know what a chief physician represented. It was only after hearing the passengers’ discussions that he felt Hao Jian might really be a doctor.
“Okay.”
Hao Jian smiled slightly, then took out a package of acupuncture tools he carried with him.
Actually, this chief physician title wasn’t sothing he earned himself, but rather he was nominally attached to Hua City Hospital where he needed a certificate, which the dean helped him obtain at that ti.
Given his current level of dical skill, aside from a few skilled elders in Huaxia, he was the strongest. If he had focused more on dicine, perhaps he would be very close to those elders now.
“Golden Needle?!”
Seeing Hao Jian take out a golden needle, the passengers imdiately showed curiosity. Although they had heard of acupuncture, they had never seen it with their own eyes.
No matter what illness they had, they took Western dicine and rarely used acupuncture for treatnt. Seeing Hao Jian bringing out acupuncture now piqued their curiosity, and they wanted to see how he would treat the child.
This ti, Lai Zhiwen wisely kept his mouth shut as he had so foundational beliefs.
“Well then, Grandpa, I’ll start now.”
As soon as Hao Jian spoke, he swiftly inserted the golden needle he held into an acupuncture point on the boy’s arm, using his power to probe the boy’s condition.
Doctors always maintain a skeptical mindset. They rarely pay attention to the causes of illness conveyed by others, relying only on their dical skills to diagnose the condition.
However, with many dical instrunts assisting, it’s almost difficult to misdiagnose, leading many doctors to gradually forget this skepticism.
But under his master’s influence, Hao Jian never forgot these two words: skepticism…
“Huh?”
As soon as his power entered the boy’s body, Hao Jian’s eyebrows furrowed. Seeing this, the old man’s heart tensed up, but he didn’t dare to disturb Hao Jian.
“This situation…”
The boy’s physical condition was normal, and his immunity showed no fluctuations. So what was causing the coughing up of blood?!
“Pneumonia… Lungs…”
Hao Jian quickly placed the golden needle on Little Nan’s chest, examining his internal organs. But when he got to the lungs and sensed the normal operation of the two lung lobes, his frown deepened. The lung lobes were normal, aning the boy’s illness wasn’t pneumonia.
Most people, upon hearing that it wasn’t pneumonia, would be relieved. But Hao Jian sensed sothing different from this aspect.
If it wasn’t pneumonia, why was it diagnosed as pneumonia? Was there a glitch in the dical equipnt?
“Probably not…”
Thinking of this, Hao Jian intensified his diagnosis, closing his eyes and focusing all his attention on the boy.
It had been a long ti since he encountered a strange case, and now seeing one, Hao Jian was imdiately captivated. To be frank, even if soone attempted to assassinate Hao Jian now, it would definitely succeed!
“Phew… So it’s here…”
After probing for a while, Hao Jian finally discovered a situation in the lung lobes. In general, the mucus secretion inside the boy’s body was abnormal, leading to accumulation in the lung lobes, blocking so key transport pathways and causing breath obstructions, which resulted in this situation.
Though it sounds simple, if not careful, the boy could easily lose his life. If this had been discovered at the beginning, it could have been quickly treated. Now, the mucus had almost solidified into a large mass, and the boy had started coughing up blood, indicating the illness had reached a late stage.
If not treated within a month, Hao Jian could guarantee that the boy would die! Without exception!
“Grandpa…”
After diagnosing the condition, Hao Jian finally opened his eyes, looking at the worried old man, and smiled slightly, “Actually, your grandson’s condition isn’t pneumonia…”
“Not pneumonia?!”
Upon hearing this, the old man widened his eyes in disbelief and quickly asked, “Why isn’t it pneumonia?! My child coughs every day and even coughed up blood today. Isn’t this serious condition caused by pneumonia?!”
The old man’s question was exactly the question on everyone’s mind. Although they didn’t understand dicine, seeing the boy’s serious condition, they also felt it wasn’t just a minor illness.
