Listening to Su Zhengnan's explanation.
Sun Huaiwei stood there for a long time, digesting the information, and finally had to admit that she was convinced by what the other party had said.
"Okay, Dr. Su, I understand what you're saying."
Sun Huaiwei nodded and said, "I don't need you to teach me the Eight Pieces of Brocade, Doctor Su. I know how to practice it."
After saying that, Sun Huaiwei walked to the side and assumed the starting posture of the Eight Pieces of Brocade, and then slowly began to practice.
Su Zhengnan stood aside and watched for a few moments. After confirming that the Eight Pieces of Brocade that the other party was practicing was correct, he ignored Sun Huaiwei.
Practice on your own.
After Su Zhengnan finished practicing the Vajra Longevity Technique, he slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and then said to Zhang Ziyang and the others:
"Alright, I'm done practicing. You guys can continue practicing!"
With that, Su Zhengnan lifted his leg and walked towards the school cafeteria, seemingly not intending to wait for Sun Huaiwei to have breakfast together.
Sun Huaiwei glanced at him indifferently, her expression unchanged, and continued practicing her Eight Pieces of Brocade.
If you are familiar with the Eight Pieces of Brocade, practicing for half an hour is most appropriate.
Sun Huaiwei had been delayed and hadn't practiced for the full half hour. In addition, she hadn't practiced Baduanjin for a long time, so she seemed a bit rusty and awkward when she first started practicing.
Su Zhengnan ate breakfast alone at the school cafeteria without waiting for Sun Huaiwei.
After having breakfast and filling their stomachs...
As soon as Su Zhengnan returned to the school clinic, he saw Zhou Zixuan squatting to the side making a phone call, looking somewhat worried. He wondered what was wrong.
Could something have happened at home?
Su Zhengnan overheard a few words, but didn't ask any further questions; he wasn't the kind of man who would gossip.
Stepping into the school clinic, Su Zhengnan returned to his office and sat down.
Tap tap tap...
However, just as he sat down, Zhou Zixuan, who had just hung up the phone, ran in from outside.
"Hmm? Sister Zhou, is something the matter?"
Su Zhengnan looked at Zhou Zixuan's slightly reddened eyes with a surprised expression and asked.
Zhou Zixuan stood there sobbing softly for a long time before looking up at Su Zhengnan and asking earnestly, "Dr. Su, do you think traditional Chinese medicine can cure this malignant tumor?"
"Malignant tumor?"
Su Zhengnan was taken aback for a moment, then looked at her and asked, "What, does someone in your family have a malignant tumor?"
Judging from Zhou Zixuan's expression and words, Su Zhengnan immediately guessed that someone in her family must have a malignant tumor, otherwise she wouldn't be crying like this!
As a nurse, Zhou Zixuan naturally knew what a malignant tumor represented.
Generally speaking, once a doctor diagnoses it as a malignant tumor, it is very difficult to cure completely because it can metastasize, which is basically equivalent to a death sentence.
Moreover, malignant tumors may transform into cancer.
That's what's even more terrifying.
Zhou Zixuan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and replied, "It's...it's my dad. My mom just called to tell me that my dad has been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. The hospital has already confirmed it, and the tumor is located quite deep, so it's impossible to remove it surgically. Even if surgery were to be performed, the risks would be very high, and it would be difficult to remove it completely."
At this point, Zhou Zixuan couldn't help but cry again.
Seeing this, Su Zhengnan didn't know how to comfort the other party, so he could only say, "Traditional Chinese medicine does have its own methods for treating tumors, and surgery is not always necessary, but we need to know the patient's specific condition in order to make a diagnosis."
"You only said that the old man has a malignant brain tumor, but I don't know the specifics of his condition, so I can't give you an accurate answer."
Does Traditional Chinese Medicine really have a solution?
A glimmer of hope flashed in Zhou Zixuan's eyes, as if she had suddenly grasped a lifeline. She looked at Su Zhengnan excitedly and said:
"Then... if I bring my dad here for a checkup, Dr. Su, will you be able to confirm it?"
Su Zhengnan looked at her calmly and said, "We'll only know after we see the patient. I won't make any guesses before I see the patient in person."
"......"
Zhou Zixuan stood there in thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Okay, I understand. I'll tell you when my dad comes."
After saying that, Zhou Zixuan turned around and walked out.
Watching the other person's departing figure, Su Zhengnan couldn't help but sigh softly, unsure of what to say.
Although his current skills in traditional Chinese medicine have reached a level far surpassing those of national masters of traditional Chinese medicine.
But that doesn't mean he can cure every disease.
Although traditional Chinese medicine has formulas to cure or inhibit brain tumors, the specific situation depends on the patient's physical condition. It is not that all tumors can be cured.
Therefore, sometimes even doctors feel powerless.
I know I have the knowledge to treat and save lives, but there are some patients standing right in front of me that I just can't save.
This feeling of helplessness can be very distressing.
But there was nothing they could do.
Su Zhengnan sat in his clinic and shook his head slightly. Then he got up and made himself a cup of ginseng and goji berry tea, which he slowly drank.
As for whether Zhou Zixuan will bring her father to visit, that's up to her.
Su Zhengnan could only promise to do his best and see how it went; the outcome was up to fate, or rather, to the disease itself.
Ring ring!
The morning went by quickly.
When the noon bell rang, Su Zhengnan subconsciously glanced at the task data that had been updated today.
The data panel displayed:
[Host: Su Zhengnan.]
[Bound Identity: Beijing Film Academy School Doctor (Traditional Chinese Medicine)]
[Daily Task: Treat three teachers within the school to receive a reward of '667g of premium Chinese herbal medicine, Small Green Vine'. Current progress: 0/3 (Incomplete).]
[Special Mission: Participate in a surgical operation and dominate over 70% of the treatment during that operation to receive a reward of 'Traditional Chinese Medicine Talent +5'. Current progress: 0/1 (Incomplete).]
[Hidden Quest: Teach ten students on-campus health preservation techniques. You will receive the reward 'Mastery of the Complete Text of Traditional Chinese Medicine's Zhuyou Branch'. Current progress: 3/10 (Incomplete).]
.........
"Little Green Vine?"
"This is the reward for today's daily quest?"
Su Zhengnan felt somewhat speechless and was not very satisfied with the reward.
Small green vine, also known as Chaotian ointment or Qianjin vine, has the effects of dispelling wind and dampness, regulating qi and relieving pain, and promoting diuresis and reducing swelling.
It's actually just a fairly common Chinese herbal medicine, often used to treat rheumatic pain, injuries from falls and blows, stomachache, abdominal pain, edema, urinary tract infections, and so on.
However, since the system calls it top-grade, it should mean that its therapeutic effect is quite powerful.
Su Zhengnan shook his head slightly, speechless, and then welcomed the first patient of the day.
