Chapter 115 Good News

  He found a decent hotel nearby for Yang Han to stay in, and then Wang Xu returned to the clinic. If he were alone, he wouldn't have minded letting Yang Han squeeze in with him, after all, Zhao Kei was still sleeping outside. He and Yang Han squeezed onto the small bed together, what if they couldn't control themselves, wouldn't that be like putting on a live show for Zhao Kei?

  In fact, the new residence of Bai Nong had space, after Fusheng Hall opened, Wang Xu almost lived in the clinic, and his original house was empty.

  Originally, Wang Xu had planned to let Zhao Kai stay over, but Zhao Kai himself was unwilling, saying that he would rather sleep on the acupuncture bed outside the clinic, and it would be more convenient to help with anything, so Wang Xu could only agree.

  It has to be said that after coming to the clinic, Zhao Kai's change is great. Compared with following Wang Xu in the hospital at the beginning, he is more diligent and hardworking, and Wang Xu also sees it.

  In fact, this time Wang Xu brought Zhao Kai to Yun City. On the one hand, it was possible for Zhao Kai to testify against Chen Shaoyun. On the other hand, he also appreciated Zhao Kai.

  This time, bring Zhao Kai and the expert group over, let Zhao Kai know that for evil deeds, there will always be a day of reckoning, also considered to be a warning bell for Zhao Kai. Zhao Kai's foundation is not bad, Wang Xu has already had the idea of truly passing on his medical skills to him.

  Of course, this matter is not a willing one, and it depends on Zhao Kai's attitude and performance in the future. After all, following him to learn medicine, even if the medical skills are successful, the subsequent medical licensing examination is also a problem.

  This is also one of the reasons why doctors in today's society cannot grow up. Now, the national medical professional title assessment regulations are very strict, and Wang Xu also took a shortcut to obtain the practicing qualification as an attending physician. If he really followed the rules, it would be uncertain whether he could pass the attending physician's practicing qualification in another five years.

  The title of a doctor is strictly divided, in order: intern, resident physician, chief resident physician, attending physician, deputy director physician, and director physician. Each practice requires time to hone, and must also accumulate experience in a regular hospital. For example, even if Wang Xu's Fushengtang or Zhao Kai have been practicing for over ten years, it is still impossible to become an attending physician.

  The traditional Chinese medicine apprenticeship model used to be the medical hall model. A doctor wanting to grow up had to start from being an apprentice, first by fetching medicine, decocting medicine, and grinding medicine, before having the qualifications to begin seeing patients, only after becoming a master could they sit in the hall.

  However, at present, such a strict medical title and harsh rules have limited the number of apprentices that traditional Chinese medicine practitioners can take on, as no one is willing to follow a traditional Chinese medicine doctor in a clinic just to gain experience.

  Although there are also traditional Chinese medicine in the hospital, after all, it is rare. The assessment of the title of traditional Chinese medicine doctors is stricter than that of Western medicine, which leads to more people studying Western medicine. Even some who really like traditional Chinese medicine will first get a title as a Western medicine doctor and then study traditional Chinese medicine.

  Look at the major hospitals now, the TCM departments are seeing patients, and they're always talking about lab tests, medical equipment, even taking pulses while looking at their watches. Without these things, most of the TCM doctors in hospitals would be completely lost and wouldn't know how to diagnose illnesses.

  Of course, this is not to say that these things are useless, but rather that traditional Chinese medicine itself relies on its own foundation, and these external forces and equipment have limited the improvement of traditional Chinese doctors' medical skills to a certain extent.

  There are over a million Western medicine doctors nationwide, but only tens of thousands of traditional Chinese medicine doctors, scattered in the vast crowd, like a drop of water in the ocean. High-level TCM practitioners like Gao Xiangming are extremely rare.

  At that time, Wang Xu had also heard Gao Xuemin mention that before liberation, there were many old Chinese medicine doctors with excellent medical skills nationwide. At that time, there were Pan Gaosheng, Lin Zhou, Cheng Tian, Zhao Wangqi and other schools of thought.

  Pan refers to the famous national doctor Pan Anmin at that time, whose medical skills were even better than those of Gao Xueyuan. He was undoubtedly the number one person in China's medical field, but unfortunately died during the disaster at that time.

  At that time, traditional Chinese medicine was judged as feudal superstition, and the older generation of TCM practitioners almost all experienced hardships, with only a few able to survive.

  At that time, there were Pan Anmin, Gao Xuemin, Xie Guoqiang, Lin Yuanchen, Zhou Yiqian, Cheng Pusheng and other several Chinese medicine masters. Now only Gao Xuemin, Xie Guoqiang, Zhou Yiqian, Qi Yunliang and a few others are left.

  In fact, when Pan Anmin and Lin Yuanchen passed away, they were not very old, only in their 40s, if they lived now, they would be around the same age as Gao Xiumin.

  Most Chinese medicine practitioners know how to maintain their health, and they are usually very healthy. Wang Heyan passed away at the age of over 80, while Gao Xuemin is now in his seventies but looks like he's only in his sixties with a ruddy complexion. If those legendary Chinese medicine doctors were still alive today, it would be a great blessing for the current Chinese medicine community, unfortunately.

  In the late Qing dynasty, with the impact of Western culture, young literary talents from all over the country accepted the baptism of Western culture and aspired to reform. Although the revolution was victorious, the suppression of Chinese culture was very severe.

  Before liberation, even great writers like Lu Xun regarded traditional Chinese medicine as feudal superstition, let alone others. It's fortunate that traditional Chinese medicine was able to survive during those years.

  "Dr. Wang is back." Wang Xu walked into the clinic and Zhao Kai hastily stood up to greet him.

  "What are you looking at?" Wang Xu nodded and saw Zhao Kai sitting in front of the consultation desk, flipping through something, and asked with a smile.

  "Flipping through your medical records, I gained a lot of insights, but there are still some things that I don't understand." Zhao Kai said with a smile.

  This time, following Wang Xu's Yun Cheng journey, Zhao Kai can be said to have thoroughly increased his face. His former colleagues who saw him were all eyes of envy, and even the female nurse who didn't take care of him before asked for his phone number. These further solidified Zhao Kai's determination to follow Wang Xu.

  "Uh, don't stay up too late, if there's anything you don't understand, take note of it, and I'll explain it to you when I have time." Wang Xu smiled and nodded, then walked into his own cubicle.

  Looking at Wang Xu's back, Zhao Kai was overjoyed. He wasn't the first time to read Wang Xu's medical records, but it was the first time that Wang Xu asked him if he had any questions he didn't understand.

  After coming to Fusheng Hall for so long, Zhao Kai also understood why Wang Xu was in the midst of Zhongjiang's wind and water. He had cured the illness of Luo Tongquan, the father of Mayor of Zhongjiang City, and even treated the children of Qiao Binkei. Even Hua Chaoyang, the old vice governor of Lianyungang, dared to refuse him.

  All of this is due to Wang Xu's own abilities and medical skills, which he has earned in just one short month. Many bosses and officials from Zhongjiang City have come to Fusheng Hall to see Wang Xu for treatment, but not everyone can get what they want. The "Three No Treatments" sign hanging above Fusheng Hall is absolutely not for show.

  Talking about age, Wang Xu is still one year younger than him, but when it comes to skills, he can't keep up with Wang Xu even if he tries his best. Wang Xu's medical skills have earned the respect of many people in Zhongjiang, and Zhao Kai believes that as long as he diligently follows Wang Xu to learn medicine, there will come a day when he can catch up.

  Wang Xu didn't know that Zhao Kai had so many ideas. He returned to his small compartment, changed his clothes, took a shower, and then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

  The next morning, Yang Han came to the clinic as soon as it opened. He brought breakfast for Wang Xu and Zhao Kai, including fried dough sticks and buns he had bought from a nearby store, along with soy milk.

  Looking at the breakfast Yang Han had bought, Wang Xu's heart suddenly felt a wave of sweetness. This kind of life he had fantasized about for a year, and now it had finally become a reality.

  "I don't know what you like to eat, so I just bought some random things. Let's just enjoy it." Yang Han put the breakfast on the table and smiled.

  "As long as you buy it, Dr. Wang likes to eat it." Zhao Kai smiled and said: "Last night, Dr. Wang was laughing in his sleep."

  "Alright, let's eat. Even a bun can't shut you up." Wang Xu's face turned red as he picked up a bun and stuffed it into Zhao Ke's mouth.

  With Yang Han, Wang Xu's laughter indeed increased a lot. Although he didn't always have a straight face before, when alone, he was usually taciturn.

  Zhao Kai and Wang Xu were having breakfast, Yang Han poured them tea and sat beside them watching. People often say that lovers see beauty in each other's eyes, yesterday Yang Han said Wang Xu had charm when he was seeing patients, now as she watched Wang Xu eating, she too couldn't take her eyes off him, it seemed that even Wang Xu eating had charm.

  Not long after eating, the clinic had customers. It was Dongqin and Gaojuan from yesterday again. When they came in, although Gaojuan was supported by Dongqin, she had obviously improved a lot.

  "Dr. Wang, your medicine is really amazing! Yesterday I took a dose back home and my sister slept well. This morning her temperature was only 38 degrees, whereas the past two days it had been over 40 degrees with a high fever." Dong Qin said with a smile of gratitude.

  "It's effective, and the recovery is pretty good." Wang Xu nodded, took a look at Gao Juan's complexion, and smiled as he asked: "Sister Gao, how are you feeling now?"

  "My whole body feels much more relaxed and I'm not sweating as much. But I still feel a bit queasy," said Gao Juan.

  "Ah, it's much better now." Wang Xu gave a pulse diagnosis and changed the medicine to Xiao Chai Hu Tang combined with Gui Zhi Tang, adding: "Go back and take three doses in a row, then come back for a follow-up examination."

  "Dr. Wang, this medicine is so effective, and Sister Gao seems to have recovered very well." Zhao Kai exclaimed with a smile after the Qin couple left.

  "Diseases are divided into warm and cold, but in fact, the theory of warm and cold diseases is originally a holistic concept. In reality, warm and cold are two sides of the same coin, regardless of whether it's the school of cold damage or the school of warm disease, they are essentially one. In fact, warm disease is a supplement to cold damage."

  Wang Xu smiled and explained, "High fever symptoms, it should be attributed to the typhoid group, and should use the typhoid method. This is incorrect. In fact, typhoid and warm cold are sometimes mixed together. When diagnosing diseases, we must clearly distinguish between them in order to use medicine effectively."

  Wang Xu said, walking back to the chair and sitting down, "Take this illness for example. This disease is due to the disharmony of Ying and Wei, with Shaoyang Zheng Xie in contention. Although the evil Qi has won, the righteous Qi still has the ability to fight back. When taking medicine, we need to protect the righteous Qi and drive out the evil Qi, preventing it from invading internally." Wang Xu rarely opened his mouth to explain things to Zhao Kai.

  "Well said, the orthodox and evil camps are originally the body's self-regulation function, the root of resistance to disease. The aim of traditional Chinese medicine is to take the body as the foundation, using its own positive energy to resist all evil." Just as Wang Xu finished speaking, a smiling voice came from outside.

  "Yun Lao, how did you come? Please come in quickly." Wang Xu heard the words and hastily stood up to welcome him, inviting Yun Chong into the clinic.

  "This time I came over, but it's to bring you some good news, guaranteed to make you laugh so hard your mouth can't close." Yun Chongzi said with a smile.
