Chapter 175 The zoo is not doing well these days

Su Tang was overwhelmed as she looked at Yao Wen, who had disheveled hair, sobbed and giggled, with unfocused eyes and obviously strange behavior.

Su Tang sighed for a moment. She almost thought she was going to fail here!

"Doctor Su, this..."

Li Yinglin silently put down the steel tactical pen in her hand, ready to be used to hit someone, and looked expressionlessly at Yao Wen, who was still sleepwalking, giggling and crying: "Doctor Su, do you need me to go downstairs to the hotel lobby and book a new room?"

"Forget it, this hotel probably has no rooms available." Su Tang sighed and shook her head helplessly.

Before she arrived, she thought the hotel was booked by the Sixth Hospital itself. After she arrived, she found that the hotel had already been fully booked and was specially reserved for these hospitals to participate in the assessment competition.

In this case, the hotel should have allocated accommodation in advance.

She couldn't take Li Yinglin and squeeze into the suite where the other hospitals were located, right? That would be so embarrassing.

Su Tang scratched her head, carefully observed Yao Wen's expression, and finally made up her mind - to do it herself and have enough food and clothing.

Since her roommate is sick, she just needs to cure him!

then……

Su Tang stretched out her sinful hands and pinched Yao Wen's cheeks.

Although Yao Wen wears glasses and looks serious and aloof during the day, the cheeks of this young girl in her 20s are actually soft and tender, and they feel great to pinch. Su Tang couldn't help but pinch them again and again.

“It hurts, it hurts…!”

The cloudy eyes gradually became clear. Yao Wen instinctively covered her cheeks and glared at him, saying loudly: "What are you doing? Why are you sneaking in the middle of the night? Are you... uh...? "

"Is it something? Look what this is..." Su Tang pursed her lips and motioned Yao Wen to look at the place where she was sitting.

Yao Wen's face darkened, and she subconsciously looked down in the direction Su Tang was moving.

Yao Wen: “…………”

Yao Wen: “……???”

What the hell?!

Yao Wen opened her eyes wide and was almost startled by the bed she was sitting on!

As if she suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the bed she was sitting on, she instinctively looked up at the bed in front of her where Li Yinglin was sleeping, then turned her head to look at her own bed behind her, and saw several blue-covered books at the head of the bed behind her. They were medical books that she was particularly familiar with.

Yao Wen was completely stunned! Her face was stiff, and she slowly turned her head around...

Su Tang even heard a creaking sound as if from an anime, as if the protagonist's neck was stiff.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey..."

Yao Wen was embarrassed and tried hard to put on a smile. Her voice was as husky as a mosquito's: "Yes, I'm sorry... I didn't expect that I would sleepwalk today..."

"Actually..." Yao Wen looked at Su Tang and the others cautiously, and said guiltily, "Actually, I rarely sleepwalked before. I only sleepwalked when I was under a lot of pressure."

"Come to think of it, this time it's because of participating in the national competition that this happened. I'm really sorry." Yao Wen pinched her cheek awkwardly.

Although she was indeed nervous and stressed because she had to participate in the national competition, the pressure was so great that she was almost bald and even her menstrual period was a little disrupted during this period.

But Yao Wen felt that she was deliberately making a fool of herself by saying this...

After all, there were countless young medical personnel who wanted to participate in the national competition this time. The one in front of her was just like her, a contestant from the Sixth Hospital.

There were so many contestants in the competition, but none of them sleepwalked, but she was under so much pressure that she sleepwalked. Doesn't this make her seem unprofessional and not very able to withstand stress?

Yao Wen rubbed her cheeks awkwardly and said, "Don't worry, I usually carry sleeping pills with me. This time when I came to Gold City, I also brought sleeping pills. I'll take two pills now and I promise that I won't affect your rest in the next few days."

Sleepwalking, also commonly known as sleepwalking, is a neurological sleep disorder.

Therefore, treatment usually requires addressing the sleep environment and the triggers of the disease, and trying to eliminate them.

However, if the symptoms are severe and affect the patient's normal life and the lives of other people around him, medication can also be used for treatment, and sleeping pills are the first choice for this condition.

After all, if it is a sleep disorder, then if you take sleeping pills and fall into a deep sleep, you won’t have this strange sleep disorder.

"If you take too many sleeping pills, you will develop drug resistance." Su Tang touched his chin and said, "How about... I give you two injections? Then I'll give you a massage, and you shouldn't sleepwalk again in the next few days."

"To put it bluntly, your sleepwalking is caused by liver depression and qi stagnation, which block the meridians. As long as you treat it well, it will basically get better in a few days. After this assessment is over, when you return to Shenzhen, without the pressure of the exam, this sleepwalking will heal itself without medicine. However..."

Su Tang thought for a moment, then frowned and said, "You've been sleepwalking for quite some time, haven't you? The profession of doctor is stressful. There are various exams every year, and even the department director often asks questions during work. The national hospital ranking competition is not just this year... You can't take sleeping pills every time you encounter this kind of thing, right?"

"If you believe me, wait until the exam is over and you return to Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Come to my clinic and I will prescribe two prescriptions for you. In the first week, take the Yunling Acorus calamus prescription which can open up the heart and treat the kidneys, nourish yin and suppress yang. In the second week, take the Longgu Zhenzhu prescription which can soothe the liver and regulate qi, calm the mind and nourish qi." Speaking of her own profession, Su Tang is no longer sleepy. She has a conditioned reflex and instinctively recommends and promotes herself, and recruits people to see patients in the general internal medicine department.

Yao Wen: “…”

Yao Wen was embarrassed. As the attending physician of the ICU, Yao Wen usually came into contact with all kinds of critically ill patients.

Generally speaking, except for the ICU of traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, other comprehensive hospitals' ICUs basically use Western medicine. Departments like theirs need some effective and fast-acting drugs, such as anti-shock pressors, cardiotonic drugs for heart failure, hemostatics, hormones, etc., plus those imported drugs with excellent efficacy. This is the main theme of their department.

Therefore, even during this recent period, Yao Wen privately heard news about traditional Chinese medicine in the work group, and heard that an internationally renowned doctor came to the Sixth Hospital to find the one in front of her to conduct cooperation between Chinese and Western medicine.

But Yao Wen has so far just been waiting and watching.

It’s not that Yao Wen thinks that traditional Chinese medicine is necessarily inferior to Western medicine. In her opinion, traditional Chinese medicine is better than Western medicine in some areas, such as treating facial paralysis and women’s conditioning...but these diseases do not include sleepwalking.

To her, any technology that she can't use, no matter how good it is, is just useless input.

Traditional Chinese medicine is basically useless in the ICU, and the same is true for her sleepwalking.

Yao Wen's eyes twitched, and she still remembers it when she went to see a Chinese doctor.

The other party said to her - 'The soul returns to the liver. Only when the soul returns to the liver will sleepwalking no longer occur. It just so happens that I also know the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles that can drive away ghosts and bring back the living. How about I drive away an evil ghost for you?'

Exorcising evil spirits? Isn't this hilarious?! What ghosts and demons are there these days?!

Not to mention the Thirteen Ghost Needles, the records of which have long been lost!

So, from then on, she no longer believed that Chinese medicine could cure her sleepwalking.

Even though this thing looks a bit like endocrine disorders caused by excessive stress, the essence of sleepwalking is still a disease of the central nervous system, which leads to sleep disorders.

Want to use traditional Chinese medicine to treat central nervous system diseases?

Yao Wen felt that this was beyond her comprehension. Of course, she had heard that modern Chinese medicine was effective in treating paralysis caused by stroke, but that was only an auxiliary method, not the main treatment method.

But it seemed a bit awkward to just refuse like that. Yao Wen thought for a moment and said tactfully, "Doctor Su, it's so late today. The injection will disturb your rest. I'd better take two sleeping pills first. As for Chinese medicine treatment, I'm still not used to it. The soup is too bitter."

"Eh? You really don't want to try? Anyway, I'm already awake." Su Tang blinked and said with some regret: "Actually, I'm quite familiar with the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles that can exorcise ghosts and bring back the living..."

In my previous life in the Imperial Medical Bureau, almost every imperial physician knew how to use the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles.

Some doctors even wrote down their own experience of using the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles. This special treatment method is most suitable for mental illnesses such as depression and paranoia.

Of course, the Thirteen Ghost Gates also has a very good therapeutic effect on diseases such as sleepwalking.

Since she got back her past life memories, she has only used the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles a few times. Su Tang was eager to try it.

Yao Wen: “…………”

Exorcising ghosts and bringing back the living? Yao Wen's expression froze, and she almost fainted.

How come this Dr. Su is in sync with the Chinese doctor who treated me last time?

Same name, same acupuncture method and effect...

Could it be that the textbooks she had read before were all fake? Did the Thirteen Ghost Needles really have this effect? ​​And they had not been lost?

Or is it that scammers always use similar tactics?

But we are all colleagues in the Sixth Hospital. There is no reason why Dr. Su would be a liar.

Poor treatment and being a liar are two different things!

Yao Wen was in a fog, her mind was buzzing...

"Uh..." Su Tang blinked as she sat on the bed. Why did she feel that Yao Wen's expression was a little strange? Did she regret it?

"Doctor Yao, what are you thinking about? How about I give you a massage first?" Su Tang tilted her head to test, hoping that Yao Wen would give a normal reaction.

But Yao Wen was sitting on her bed, like a clam, with her head slightly lowered, without any reaction at all.

Tsk! I didn't expect this guy to be so arrogant! He said he didn't want it, but his body was honest...

Not noticing the complicated expression on Yao Wen's face as she lowered her head, Su Tang sighed, thinking that this person was just saying one thing and thinking another.

In the general internal medicine department, Su Tang, who had seen many such situations in the past few months, directly reached out and grabbed the back of Yao Wen's fate.

If you don’t like Chinese medicine, acupuncture and herbal medicine, then try massage!

then--

Half a minute later

Yao Wen, who was just thinking seriously about the Thirteen Ghost Needles, suddenly felt a tingling sensation coming from the aftermath. The soft but powerful fingers seemed to carry their own electric current, stimulating Yao Wen's scalp to numbness, pupils to dilate, and she let out an involuntary howling sound in her throat.

“Ahhh, ahhh…oooooo…ahhh…ahhh…ahhh…ahhh~~”

Yao Wen: What's wrong with this Dr. Su? Woohoo~ She can't afford to play sneak attacks~

As Su Tang's fingers gradually gained strength.

Yao Wen's face flushed, and she moaned as if she wished she could melt while lying on the bed. Even her spine and tailbone felt a tingling sensation, which spread all the way to her toes, making her toes tense.

Su Tang smiled and suggested again: "Doctor Yao, do you feel comfortable? How about I give you an injection? The Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles are really effective."

Yao Wen: “Yes!”

This time she was decisive and did not hesitate.

Li Yinglin: “…………”

Uh, why does she feel that this thing is a bit like the doctor's version of "torture and confession"?

No martial ethics!

………………

Su Tang massage is naturally comfortable, even the thirteen ghost needles don’t hurt much.

After Yao Wen finished the injection and stopped humming, she lay in bed for three minutes.

Yao Wen has fallen into a deep sleep.

Su Tang and Li Yinglin also closed their eyes. Luckily today was Saturday and they still had a day to rest tomorrow. Otherwise, if there was such a commotion in the middle of the night, their exams might be affected.

However, the next day, when Su Tang and the other two got up and went downstairs to have breakfast in the restaurant on the third floor, they saw Jiang Haichao next door with a sleepy face. The dark circles under his eyes from working overtime every day in the oncology department were even darker. The same was true for several medical staff from the Sixth Hospital next to him.

"Hey, did you hear it? The wolves in the zoo next door howled all night last night..." Jiang Haichao said weakly with two big dark circles under his eyes, "I was studying until the early morning last night, and I heard the wolf howling not long after I fell asleep. It was terrifying in the middle of the night. You said that our national hospital ranking competition is an important project after all, why didn't we book a hotel in the city center? Why did we book it in the outer ring near the zoo? This is too bad, isn't it?"

Su Tang: “Uh…”

Subconsciously thinking of Yao Wen's unique howling last night, Su Tang instinctively focused his eyes on Yao Wen.

Yao Wen: “…”

Yao Wen turned her head away in embarrassment, feeling a little guilty.

Just at this moment, another colleague next to him responded positively and discussed with Jiang Haichao: "Hey, Dr. Jiang, don't say that. In fact, if you listen carefully, you can find that the howling last night is a little different from that of a real wolf."

“………” Yao Wen held her breath, shame instantly spreading across her face.

It's over! She's going to die! Yao Wen wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into! But there was no crack in the bright and glamorous hotel restaurant.

When Yao Wen's apology was about to rise to her throat...

Yao Wen heard her colleague next to her continue, "I think that sound is a bit like the husky my parents used to raise."

Yao Wen had no expression on her face: “…”

A colleague sighed: "I didn't expect that this Jinshi Zoo would be like those second-rate zoos on the hot search news and use huskies instead of wolves."

Another colleague leaned over and interrupted, exclaiming, "Huh? Husky? I didn't expect that the Jinshi Animal Business is not doing well right now."

Yao Wen: “…”

Su Tang, Li Yinglin: “…”

"Hey, you guys are all here. Let me tell you, the competition starts at 8:30 tomorrow morning, at the university next door. We should go downstairs an hour early. There will be a unified bus to take everyone to the examination room at 7:40!" Holding the competition notice issued from above, the staff of the Academic Affairs Office saw Su Tang and others eating and chatting, and distributed the notice to everyone.

Su Tang looked down and saw the words "National Hospital Ranking Practice Competition Schedule" clearly visible on the white printed paper.

Competition Content:

First round: Written test December 6, 8:30~10:30 am (Note: For this test, the top 300 students in the hospital’s total score will be selected, accounting for 20% of the total score)

Second round: Standardized patient assessment??December 7??8:30~17:30 (Note: This round of examination will select the top 150 in the total score of the hospital, accounting for 30% of the total score)

The third round: Practical assessment??December 8~12?? (Note: This assessment accounts for 50% of the total score)

Note: During the exam period, the Health Bureau will arrange for candidates to enter and exit the exam venue. Please do not make any moves on your own. If you violate the rules, the hospital will be disqualified from the competition and will not be able to participate in this year's national hospital rankings!

Su Tang and the others looked at the competition schedule in their hands and were silent for a moment.

Written tests and standardized patients are easy to understand. Anyone who has been to elementary school has been beaten with the former. The latter, standardized patients, refer to simulated patients, that is, normal people or patients who can show relevant symptoms in a standard manner after systematic training. This is also a type that can be often seen in clinical teaching nowadays.

But this practical assessment...

They understood the literal meaning, but they couldn't understand the time period, from the 8th to the 12th, a full 5 days!

"Does this mean that we should cure the patients and then test their treatment results within five days?" Several people frowned and thought seriously. The participating teams from other hospitals also fell into deep thought.
