Chapter 7: The Miraculous Art of Medicine

  (New book by new author, seeking support and collection!)

  Of these two seriously injured people, the little girl's physical condition is the worst and she may not be able to hold on at any time, so he must operate on this little girl first.

  Zhang Wen-zhong's blunt words made all the nurses frown, but because Yue Zi-min was there, the nurses in the operating room didn't dare to speak out, so even if they were angry, they could only swallow their anger.

  Lin Min was also dissatisfied with Zhang Wen's attitude, but out of professional ethics, she kindly reminded: "The anesthesiologist hasn't come over to administer anesthesia yet..."

  "There's no time to wait for the anesthesiologist, surgery must be performed immediately. I'll use another method to anesthetize them." Zhang Wen Zhong replied without lifting his head, and with a flick of his right hand, the syringe that had been sterilized along with his gown appeared in his hand.

  Zhang Wenzhong quickly opened the needle box, took out several metal needles, and quickly inserted them into several acupoints on the little girl's chest.

  Yue Zimin stood by and watched from start to finish, not even daring to breathe a word. After Zhang Wenzhong finished the acupuncture, he cautiously asked: "Can acupuncture also have an anesthetic effect? But the acupoints you chose are all very common, if they can have an anesthetic effect, shouldn't they have been proven by now......"

  Zhang Wen-zhong had a good impression of Dr. Yue Zi-min, so after hearing his inquiry, Zhang also did not hide anything and explained: "The selected acupoints are not the key, the key is still the acupuncture technique, which is the intensity and frequency of stimulation to the acupoints. Unfortunately, many acupuncture techniques have been lost now, so no one can achieve these effects anymore, it's quite normal."

  "It's indeed the case." Yue Zimin, who was quite accomplished in medicine, had long harbored similar suspicions. Now that Zhang Wenzhong was saying the same thing, the questions that had been plaguing him for so long were finally resolved.

  Zhang Wen-zhong is now too busy to give detailed instructions to Yue Zi-min, and Yue Zi-min is also very clear about the lightness and urgency of the situation, and has not rushed to ask questions, but is working hard to do what a surgical assistant should do.

  After being anesthetized with acupuncture, Zhang Wen-zhong took the surgical knife handed over by Yue Zi-min and began to perform a thoracotomy.

  Watching Zhang Wen-zhong's quick and accurate knife work, Yue Zi-min's hanging heart was able to relax a bit. Although Yue Zi-min is famous for his Chinese medicine, in fact, his attainments in Western surgical science are not low either, so he can see the ferocity of Zhang Wen-zhong's knife work.

  In less than a minute, Zhang Wenzhong completely opened up the little girl's chest.

  Just as Zhang Wen had judged earlier, the little girl's sternum and ribs were all shattered, with most of the bone fragments piercing her heart. The severity of the injury caused everyone in the operating room to involuntarily take a deep breath. Even a young nurse couldn't help but exclaim in shock. Although she quickly suppressed it, she still attracted Zhang Wen's icy gaze.

  Although there were nurses beside him responsible for passing surgical instruments, Zhang Wenzhong found their movements too slow and not as quick as his own hands. So he picked up a pair of forceps himself and began to remove the bone fragments that had been pierced into the heart.

  The sharp bone fragments that have pierced into her heart, regardless of their size, must be removed as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if the little girl is saved, her body will still be affected and she will suffer from illness and pain.

  An ordinary doctor, even with the help of advanced instruments, would not be able to remove all the bone fragments that had pierced the heart without several hours of careful searching. But Zhang Wen-zhong, relying solely on a pair of tweezers and no other instruments, was able to remove the bone fragments at an astonishing speed. He seemed to be able to accurately remove the bone fragments without even looking. In less than three minutes, he had removed all the bone fragments that had pierced the heart and began suturing the laceration on the surface of the heart.

  Yu Zimin and the nurses stood beside the operating table, utterly shocked as they stared at Zhang Wenzhong's hands moving swiftly and precisely, never having thought that in this world, there could be someone whose hands could move so fast, so accurately, and so steadily.

  Heart suturing and re-fixing of fractured sternum, Zhang Wen-zhong spent less than ten minutes doing all this.

  "Leave the rest to you, I'm going to operate on the other injured person." Zhang Wen Zhong said to Yue Zi Min with a sideways glance. "Because this little girl is still in her developmental stage, I didn't use steel plates or plaster to fix her ribcage. After the surgery, I'll give you a prescription, you make it into an ointment and apply it to this little girl."

  Yue Zimin was still in a state of shock, but upon hearing Zhang Wenzhong's words, he finally came to his senses and nodded vigorously: "Alright, I'll take care of her. As for the other injured person, please take care of him."

  After witnessing Zhang Wen-zhong's incredible medical skills, Yue Zi-min now has a deep admiration for him. He also starts to believe that Zhang Wen-zhong can indeed complete the two high-difficulty surgeries in less than an hour.

  The girl's injury is also not optimistic, especially since her skull and cervical vertebrae have separated, making the entire operation even more difficult. Fortunately, however, her carotid artery did not rupture; otherwise, with Zhang Wenzhong's current abilities, he would be powerless to do anything.

  Zhang Wen-zhong still used acupuncture anesthesia method, anesthetized the girl, then he used a surgical knife to cut open the skin and muscle of the girl's posterior neck, used traditional Chinese medicine bone injury technique to restore the deformed cervical vertebrae, then removed the fragmented bone debris, sutured the ruptured neck tendons, after carefully checking that the carotid artery and jugular vein were not damaged, he re-sutured the surgical incision.

  After restoring the girl's head and cervical vertebrae, Zhang Wenzhong treated other injuries on her body.

  Forty minutes had just passed since the girl's surgery was completed.

  Zhang Wen-zhong actually completed the two extremely difficult surgeries within forty-five minutes. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, nobody would believe it.

  The eight nurses in the operating room had already been stunned into idiocy.

  If it weren't for Zhang Wen's indifferent attitude from start to finish, they would have exclaimed long ago. Even so, the nurses still couldn't help but gather together and whisper to each other:

  "Who is this person? He actually completed two high-difficulty surgeries in such a short period of time."

  "It must be our hospital's newly hired young expert, right? Didn't you see that Deputy Director Yue is even acting as his assistant?"

  "So young and already an expert? That's really impressive! I wonder if he has a girlfriend?"

  "You little girl, now that spring is already over, how are you still..."?

  Just as Zhang Wenzhong was operating on the girl, Yue Zimin had already finished suturing her. Therefore, all the orthopedic techniques that Zhang Wenzhong used just now were also taken in by him, leaving him amazed.

  However, during the operation, Yue Zimin did not ask because he was worried that it would distract Zhang Wenzhong. It wasn't until after the surgery was completed that he asked in a trembling voice: "Mr. Zhang, the bone-setting technique you used just now, isn't it the legendary 'He Jin Xu Gu'?"

  Zhang Wen Zhong nodded: "That's right, it is the 'He Jin Xu Gu' technique."
