Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2202 The Heart Hammer Landed Solidly

Professor Mi's medical background is in Western medicine. However, she has an uncle who is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor. She has been exposed to traditional Chinese medicine since childhood and is not unfamiliar with it at all. After achieving some success in her career, Professor Mi gradually realized that traditional Chinese medicine is not simple at all. Professor Mi has always had a profound understanding of the holistic nature of medicine and has put a lot of effort into traditional Chinese medicine in her spare time.

Perhaps for this reason, Professor Mi's medical career has always seemed so brilliant.

Upon their first meeting, Professor Mi realized that Bian Mu was very likely to surpass the older generation of renowned doctors, represented by Nie Yixiong, and lead the local TCM community, TCM practice, and Chinese medicine industry into a new era.

For this reason, Professor Mi has always taken great care of Bian Mu, and there are some things that Bian Mu still knows nothing about.

As he approached his formal retirement, Professor Mi felt it was his responsibility to pave the way for Bian Mu, for various reasons, both personally and for the advancement of the medical profession. He would do as much as he could to help.
In what appeared to be a casual conversation, Professor Mi was surprised to discover that the sophistication of the "Digital Medicine" school of traditional Chinese medicine, which Bian Mu had founded, was far beyond her expectations.

"From what you're saying... a person's subjective emotions can permeate other things in a tangible, material way. Conversely, lifestyle, work patterns, unique personal hobbies... can also act in the opposite direction on both the human body and mind in a way similar to a 'reflex arc,' year after year, day and night, everywhere, penetrating every nook and cranny. However, most of us are almost completely unaware of this, completely unaware of the profound and subtle influence of this emotional 'reflex arc' on the human body. In other words, in the not-too-distant future, I may become deaf or blind... right?" In the end, even with Professor Mi's strong personality, a hint of sadness still crept into his words.

Bian Mu nodded calmly.

"I have to say, after talking with you for so long, all the resistance I've had buried in my heart has completely disappeared! At this age, let nature take its course! You've always been self-disciplined. It's getting late, so I won't keep you any longer. Get ready, and I'll hand over all the paperwork before the New Year. Some things... should come to an end cleanly and decisively. Thank you!" Professor Mi was indeed much more at ease as he spoke.

Bian Mu's trip was indeed worthwhile.

"Please don't say that. It's clear that you've put your 'heart hammer' into practice. As a junior, I've made the most of my trip today! You know, once someone's 'heart hammer' is firmly placed, many things become much easier to handle..." Considering Professor Mi's feelings, it's best to be subtle in your words for everyone's sake.

Upon hearing this, Professor Mi's eyes lit up.

"So... you've already mastered some of the treatment methods? That's incredibly fast!"

"A complete cure may not be possible, but we are confident that we can stop it from deteriorating further towards deafness and blindness," Bian Mu replied with a very modest smile.

A look of surprise immediately appeared on Professor Mi's face, and he couldn't help but look Bian Mu up and down.

"As the old saying goes, when the heavens send down an illness, the earth will surely produce a medicine or a prescription. I will put this into practice and once the new medical concept is formed, I will be able to quickly develop the minimum version of the corresponding treatment plan. However... the initial treatment effect is not so ideal, and the treatment procedure and required medication may be very complicated. Now that your 'heart hammer' has been put to the test, there is nothing for everyone to worry about."

"You little rascal... I knew I wasn't wrong about you! Alright! From now on, the lives of us old folks are in your hands!"

"How dare I! I will do my best! You can pack your things slowly, I have to go back to work." As he spoke, Bian Mu took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket. It was purplish-red, bright and eye-catching, but there was no trace of thievery. It was obviously a fine piece.

"I prepared some medicine for you a while ago. It's a one-size-fits-all prescription, and it only works for you; it doesn't work for others." As she spoke, Bian Mu respectfully handed the bottle of refined traditional Chinese medicine to Professor Mi with both hands. "Thank you for your thoughtfulness! Well... I won't stand on ceremony then, but... how exactly do you use this?"

"For pomelos, white pomelos are best. You can do whatever you want with the flesh, but we only need the outer peel. Just pick the freshest ones with high water content from the fruit shop. Have a younger family member use a thin blade to cut off a layer from the very inside. They can decide the thickness themselves, but we definitely don't want the outermost layer. In principle, we should take the innermost layer as much as possible. When they do it, remind them not to cut their hands! The bottle contains medicinal powder, which will dissolve in a little water. I used a setting agent, which Mr. Huang developed himself. The main ingredient is corn leaves, the green kind, which you just need to dry. It won't seep out after it dissolves. Sprinkle some powder on it, and when you see it change color, it's ready. Use it as a plaster. Cut it into small pieces with scissors and stick them on the acupoint behind your ears! Yes, just one spot, one on each side! Also, make two more pieces and stick them on your temples, one on each side. Use them twice a day, morning and evening. I estimate that by the time you've used up most of them, I should have prepared the appropriate medicine."

"How thoughtful! I have nothing more to say, just drive carefully!"

"Sure!" With that, Bian Mu hurriedly went out, went downstairs, drove off to work.

……

Just before lunchtime, Bian Mu was explaining medication contraindications to three young interns when Lu Yisi waved to her with a smile from the clinic doorway.

"That's enough for today! When you get back, use wheat as the coordinate point and sort out all the Chinese medicinal herbs that are positively related to wheat, and make a graph on the computer; then, make a table of the opposite medicinal properties, establish a coordinate system in reverse, and make another graph on the computer. When you have free time, compare them repeatedly. One day, the three of you will have some insights. Write them down word for word, and then think about them. Finally, when you have racked your brains and have nothing left to think of, write a paper and hand it in. Those who pass can basically graduate!" Bian Mu suddenly announced a rather special assignment.

After hearing these words, the three young interns were stunned and didn't know what to say.

"What are you all standing there for! Clap your hands! You're about to graduate! Master Bian's first batch of apprentices, how prestigious is that!" As he spoke, Lu Yisi took the lead in clapping, the clear applause carrying far and wide.

The three young interns then cheered...

In any case, the first phase of their internship has come to an end. The three young people are not really prepared for what the future holds for them. However, coming from a less prestigious institution is still an honor.

Amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, Bian Mu told Xiao Shang to find a nice restaurant, and he would treat them.

……

"One Room," a restaurant serving Chinese food with a Western twist, Lu Yisi kept ordering expensive dishes, and Bian Mu had to stop him for a long time before he finally gave up.

"Have you run into trouble?" Bian Mu asked with a smile while eating a large drunken crab.

“Intestinal adhesions, the cause is quite simple. The patient’s family is relatively well-off, and everything is quite ordinary. The only problem is that the surgery is difficult to perform. The patient’s sister, her own sister, somehow found a friend who asked my mother for help, saying that any surgery is a ‘misfortune’ and that I must be the surgeon. What could I say? Anyway, it’s not a difficult surgery, so I had the head nurse transfer it to my name. As a result…” At this point, Lu Yisi frowned and shook her head slightly.

Upon hearing this, Bian Mu realized that this matter was probably not trivial.
