Chapter Ninety-Four
"How could this be?"
Li Zhijun and the others were all stunned.
Although they didn’t understand dicine,
the reduction of the swelling was definitely effective.
And the way Long Xiaoshan administered acupuncture seed to be a technique that couldn’t just be perford by anyone.
"Teacher Xu, how do you feel?"
"It’s not that painful anymore, thank you, Xiaoshan. I didn’t expect you to know acupuncture," Xu Manqing said, looking at her proud student, sowhat puzzled.
Again, the door was pushed open.
Doctor Hu, who had left earlier, had turned back and opened the door. Seeing Long Xiaoshan still inserting needles, he shouted, "Dean, you have to see this. Look at this kid, not listening to , insisting on giving the patient acupuncture. You say, if there’s a problem, I won’t take responsibility."
Following Doctor Hu, a few more people entered.
They were the hospital leaders.
They were making their rounds.
Thus, Doctor Hu thought of that detestable kid and imdiately led the Dean and the others over.
With the Dean’s arrival, he found his confidence.
He could directly order soone to throw Long Xiaoshan out and also wouldn’t have to take responsibility if there were dical problems.
Seeing a crowd surge into the ward,
Xu Manqing grew anxious and said, "Xiaoshan, you should stop first."
"Teacher Xu, please don’t talk right now," Long Xiaoshan said, continuing the treatnt without stopping.
Doctor Hu, seeing Long Xiaoshan ignoring him, beca even more furious, and approached to pull Long Xiaoshan away.
"Stop!"
A loud shout ca from a man in his fifties or sixties at the door.
Doctor Hu, pointing at Long Xiaoshan, said, "Stop, did you hear that? Didn’t you see our Dean has co?"
Li Zhijun and the others showed a schadenfreude expression.
The Dean of the People’s Hospital held significant status in the county.
Not just any ordinary person.
The man in his fifties or sixties rushed over, shoving Doctor Hu aside and said, "I was telling you to stop!"
Following this, the Dean moved beside Long Xiaoshan and respectfully said, "Dragon Divine Doctor, you are here. Why didn’t you notify ?"
"Dean?" Doctor Hu was dumbfounded.
Li Zhijun and the others were dumbfounded as well.
What was this situation?
Long Xiaoshan glanced at the Dean and said without stopping his hands, "We’ll talk later."
"Of course, of course," the Dean repeated several tis, pulling Doctor Hu back a bit, and said to those who followed, "Nobody speak, let Dragon Divine Doctor treat the patient."
The Dean stood by, watching Long Xiaoshan’s acupuncture intently.
His reverent attitude was like that of a student.
The room fell suddenly silent, shocking everyone there.
This was the Dean of the People’s Hospital after all. Placed in the county, he could sit on par with the head of the health bureau, and his status was even more esteed as he was an old professor, an expert level doctor.
And yet he was showing such an expression to a simple farr,
even calling him Divine Doctor.
Long Xiaoshan’s focus was completely on the treatnt; he did not notice the sudden quietness in the ward. After half an hour of treatnt, he finally healed all of Teacher Xu Manqing’s external injuries. The bruising and blood stasis were all cleared with his acupuncture technique.
"It’s done, Teacher," Long Xiaoshan said, wiping the sweat from his forehead. "The remaining bone injuries and nerve damage must be treated with dicine. I’ll bring them to you later."
"Xiaoshan, you’ve worked hard,"
Xu Manqing felt her body relieved from the intense pain she had suffered over the previous days and couldn’t help but see Long Xiaoshan in a new light.
"Dragon Divine Doctor." The Dean of the People’s Hospital hurried over to greet him at this mont.
"Director Qiu, you’re too polite, just call by my na," Long Xiaoshan said.
"How could I, Divine Doctor, you haven’t co for a while, and we couldn’t get in touch with you," Director Qiu replied.
After Long Xiaoshan had treated Su Wan’s tumor last ti.
Long Xiaoshan had originally agreed with Director Qiu to co back every week to treat tumor patients, but after reconsidering, he felt it was too much to commit to. Treating tumors, especially cancer, could beco very troubleso once word got out.
He anticipated that patients would flock to him.
So, after healing two patients and becoming busier with his own matters, Long Xiaoshan had not returned to the hospital.
"Oh, I’ve been quite busy lately, Director, let’s leave the treatnt to fate," Long Xiaoshan said.
Director Qiu showed a look of regret upon hearing this.
However, he was a cunning old fox; soone extraordinary like Long Xiaoshan couldn’t possibly be pinned down to a schedule, just like the divine doctors of ancient tis, whom you couldn’t hope to appeal to without the utmost sincerity, comparable to Liu Bei’s three visits to the thatched cottage.
"Director Qiu, I must prepare a prescription for my teacher now, so I’ll take my leave," Long Xiaoshan said.
"She is your teacher?" Director Qiu looked at Xu Manqing.
"Yes, she is my teacher."
"I’m aware of her injuries. Pelvic and spinal fractures, severe internal bleeding, a first-degree paralysis. Dragon Divine Doctor, could you possibly treat such injuries?" Director Qiu was astonished.
Cancer can be treated, and so might say there are secretive redies.
But Xu Manqing’s injuries are an entirely different matter than cancer.
This was a surgical case.
"It should be possible, Director Qiu, I really must go now."
"Wait a mont, Old Liao, arrange for Teacher Xu to be moved to the special care ward imdiately," Director Qiu commanded.
"Ah, but, Director Qiu, the special care ward is already full."
"Isn’t there one VIP room reserved?"
"Director Qiu, that, that’s saved for leaders, in case of an ergency," Deputy Director Liao whispered.
"Use that one, Old Liao, hurry and arrange it."
"Alright, Director Qiu."
In no ti, many of the hospital’s nurses and doctors started moving, transferring Xu Manqing to a different ward.
Li Zhijun and the others were stunned. Long Xiaoshan had not yet spoken a word, but Director Qiu was already offering the VIP room reserved for leaders for Teacher Xu to stay in. It was evident that Long Xiaoshan’s status in Director Qiu’s mind even exceeded that of the county’s leaders.
Xu Manqing also felt embarrassed and said, "Xiaoshan, let it be. I’m quite alright staying here, it’s a private room as well."
Long Xiaoshan glanced at the private room and indeed it wasn’t anything special; it was small and didn’t even have a private bathroom.
Besides, there was the matter of ongoing treatnt.
He said, "Thank you, Director Qiu. Teacher Xu, since it’s the director’s arrangent, please rest assured and stay."
In his eyes, Teacher Xu was far more important than any so-called leader. What was one VIP room, after all?
Long Xiaoshan was busy helping on the side.
And he helped transfer Xu Manqing to the special care ward.
The VIP ward was located at the top floor of the hospital’s inpatient departnt. Very quiet, with an enormous space of over a hundred square ters, it not only had the ward but also a living room, guest room for accompanying sleepers, private bathroom and shower, with fully-equipped facilities. There were famous paintings on the walls and green plants on the window sill; it hardly looked like a hospital room at all. Staying here felt like living in a star-rated hotel.
Not to ntion, there were two nurses providing 24-hour dedicated care.
This left Li Zhijun and the others once again astounded.
Li Zhijun was soone who had a bit of money.
But when had he ever stayed in such a hospital room?
"My goodness, no wonder everyone wants to be a leader," Hong Xiaofei stuck out his tongue.
Ordinary people co for treatnt in common wards and often can’t even secure a bed, pleading with anyone who’d listen to arrange even a spot in the hallway for them.
Feeling uneasy about staying in such opulence, Xu Manqing said to Long Xiaoshan, "Xiaoshan, perhaps I shouldn’t stay here."
"Teacher, just rest and recuperate peacefully, I’ve got everything under control," Long Xiaoshan reassured her as he took her hand, then turned to Li Zhijun and the others, "You guys stay here with the teacher for now, I’m going to fetch the dicine."
"Xiaoshan, go ahead, we’ll take good care of the teacher, don’t worry," Li Xiaohong hurriedly said.
Her attitude had completely changed, by one hundred and eighty degrees.
