Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 340 Actively cooperate?

Wang Quanshan didn't know that his first wife was also a lurker, and her level was much higher than his.

If Meng Lan had not wanted to see him this time, he might have believed until his death that the report was an act of justice on the part of his wife.

However, it was precisely because of this report that Wang Quanshan saved his life.

Looking back now, it is hard to say whether Meng Lan’s report was intended to kill him or to save his life.

Wang Quanshan also asked this question after they met, but unfortunately, the answer he got was just a faint smile from Meng Lan, who didn't explain anything to him.

That day was the first time the two met after twenty years, and the scene was full of sadness.

Wang Quanshan was released ten years ago and is currently a farm worker at the Sino-Cuban Friendship People's Commune in Yangchao.

His past experiences have caused him to suffer a lot in recent years, but since his release he has been farming on the commune's farm, which has him much better off than those who went to work in factories or did other jobs.

After meeting that day, both of them were in tears. Facing Meng Lan, his ex-wife who had once reported him, Wang Quanshan still felt complicated.

After learning about her current situation, he tried his best to persuade her to surrender and stop resisting in vain.

At that time, it was decided to let Wang Quanshan come over, and the people from the Social Affairs Bureau came up with a rather vague countermeasure, which was to persuade him to cooperate and pretend that his leg was broken and he could not walk and needed someone to support him.

The original plan was to have a skilled practitioner help her in, but Meng Lan didn't buy it at all and insisted on having Li Yancheng help her in, and would let go if someone else did.

Perhaps in her eyes, this thin-looking young man was just a doctor, but what she didn't expect was that this young doctor was actually a man-eating tiger.

Even though she had asked Li Yancheng to take off his shirt leaving only a cross-bar vest, she still couldn't help but want to shake hands with her former lover after meeting Wang Quanshan.

Her hand was temporarily controlled by Li Yancheng's acupuncture needle, which was hidden somewhere, making her idea of ​​sacrificing herself for the country completely shattered.

Meng Lan had really gone crazy at the last moment of her life. She wanted to drag a group of people to be buried with her.

The detonator she held in her hand was indeed real, but the explosives piled in her house were not only controlled by the detonator, but also by a timer.

When Li Yancheng held her down and snatched the detonator, the blasting expert who had been prepared rushed into her room immediately.

As soon as they entered the room, what caught the two experts' eyes was the timer that showed less than a minute left before the explosion.

In other words, rather than saying that she wanted to shake hands with Wang Quanshan as a final farewell, it would be more accurate to say that she wanted to hold her ex-husband's hand and go to hell with her.

As for the others, according to her plan, they would all be buried with her.

Li Yancheng, who had been holding the detonator tightly after controlling Meng Lan and didn't dare to let go, almost held back his peeing when he heard the news.

Not to mention him, all the people guarding near the yard were scared. Director Dong even needed someone to support him when he stood there because his legs were so weak that he could not stand.

But no one laughed at him. When Li Yancheng's shouting was heard in the yard, Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong rushed in closely behind the two blasting experts. Next came Director Zhong, and following next to Director Zhong was Director Dong.

He also risked his life, hoping to show off in this incident. After all, it was his contribution to finding Meng Lan. If he could be at the forefront during the arrest, then his status in the Social Affairs Bureau would at least be qualitatively improved.

His goal was indeed achieved this time.

But Director Dong never expected that the closest he had ever been to death would come so unexpectedly.

We should be thankful that there are no such complicated circuits these days. Whether it is the detonator or timer connected to the explosive, all we have to do is pull out the wire.

Otherwise, the consequences of that day would be unimaginable.

The topic shifted back to the ward. When Meng Lan heard Deputy Director Zhong asking her the final condition whether she still wanted to see Wang Quanshan, she shook her head with some difficulty.

What do you want to see him for?
The reason I asked to see him that day was to drag him to the underworld with me. Now it is obviously impossible, so there is no point in seeing him again.

"So what are your conditions? I still say the same thing, as long as it's not excessive, we will do our best to meet your requirements."

Seeing her shaking her head, Director Zhong asked.

Meng Lan turned her head and fixed her gaze on Li Yancheng again. This glance made several people in the ward raise their eyebrows, thinking that this old woman was about to die and that was why she was a little confused and was planning to make a request that no one would agree to.

It’s no wonder that everyone thinks this way. It’s no exaggeration to say that half of the responsibility for the failure of her plan lies with Li Yancheng.

After all, without his lightning-fast attack, the explosion would really go off.

Director Zhong frowned and was about to speak when Meng Lan spoke.

"I only have one request, which is that I have been puzzled for some time, where was the needle hidden in the hand of Section Chief Li when he arrested me that day?
If Section Chief Li is willing to clear up the doubts of a dying man like me, so that I won't die with regrets, then I will tell him all the secrets in my heart.

Of course, you probably know better than I do how long I can live, and if I die before I finish speaking, you can't blame me for being dishonest."

When they heard that Meng Lan had made this request, the others turned to look at Li Yancheng in surprise.

Li Yancheng was also confused by her request. Is this a request?

Without waiting for Director Zhong to say anything, he took a step forward and said, "Meng Lan, do you mean that if I tell you how I hid the needle, you will take the initiative to tell us the secrets we want to know?"

"That's right... but how much I can say depends on how many days you can let me live, Chief Li."

"Okay, then you have to look carefully."

As soon as Li Yancheng said this, he raised his right hand and stretched it in front of Meng Lan.

Director Zhong and the others also looked over there. To be honest, they had no idea how Li Yancheng had hidden the needle.

When their eyes fell on that hand, they saw that a long needle was twisted between the thumb and index finger of that hand.

The other people didn't react strongly when they saw the long needle, but Nurse Cao, who had not yet left the ward, almost screamed out loud.

She clearly remembered that when she woke up Meng Lan ten minutes ago, she handed Section Chief Li two long needles and one large needle.

Later, after the three needles were used, they were all returned to her. Now they are placed in the tray on the table next to her and have not been sterilized yet. Does this mean that Section Chief Li has at least one needle in his hand at all times?

But that thing is not an embroidery needle. The long needle is about 20 centimeters long. Although it is very thin, it is still easy to find when holding it in the hand. The length from the tip of the middle finger to the wrist of an ordinary person's hand is not as long as this needle. It is simply impossible to hide it in the hand.

but……

Just as Nurse Cao was shocked, the others also realized that something was wrong. There was surprise in their eyes. Su Xiaotong, who was standing next to them, almost put his head on Li Yancheng's shoulder to watch.

To hide the needles in his hands, Li Yancheng used more than just the warehouse. He could really play with the needles in his hands in various ways.

For example, now, his hand was stretched out in front of Meng Lan, and the shiny long needle was clearly in front of her, but the hand did not move much, and the needle disappeared in a flash.

The needle reappeared in his hand as his five fingers opened and closed.

This time, the people standing behind Li Yancheng saw it clearly. When the needle could not be seen from the front, it was actually blocked by his fingers on the back of his hand. It was just because he moved quickly, and when he showed the back of his hand to you, the needle moved to the palm.

So in the eyes of people looking at it from the front, the needle appears and disappears, just like a magic trick.

Director Liu from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of the General Hospital, who had never left, let out a sigh of relief at this moment.

Being good at the trick of hiding a long needle in one's hand does not mean that one's medical skills are very high, but it at least shows that the young man never lets go of the needle and puts a lot of effort into playing with the needle.

This also shows that he has a high level of acupuncture skills.

Just now, while decocting the medicine, he and Li Yancheng discussed a lot of knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine. Leaving aside the basic knowledge, Director Liu was dumbfounded when he heard about how to treat diseases through acupuncture.

They didn't care about syndrome differentiation and treatment, the main, secondary, auxiliary and guiding ingredients to pay attention to when prescribing medicine, or body conditioning. They just simply and roughly understood the patient's physical condition through the pulse, and then used acupuncture to clear the patient's meridians.

If it doesn't work once, try it twice. If it still doesn't work three times, then you still can't do it? Sorry, I'm not very skilled. You'd better find someone else.

During the discussion, Director Liu mentioned several diseases, both those treated with traditional Chinese medicine and those with Western medicine. Li Yancheng was able to tell which acupuncture points needed to be punctured and which meridians needed to be unblocked in order to achieve the purpose of curing the disease.

Director Liu didn't dare to believe it easily because he hadn't actually experienced it, but he believed it at least 80%.

Although he only regarded acupuncture as an auxiliary means of treating diseases, he still understood the acupoints and meridians, and he knew whether acupuncture of those acupoints could have the effect of unblocking the meridians.

However, the collision between two almost completely different concepts of traditional Chinese medicine made Director Liu, a man in his sixties, a little confused for a moment.

Now seeing that Li Yancheng could make such a variety of uses with a long acupuncture needle, he couldn't help but feel even more emotional. There is no such thing as easy success, and this is not something I say casually.

At this moment, an idea suddenly emerged in Director Liu's mind: should he ask this young man to treat that person's illness?
After four months of collecting urine samples for testing every day, they finally figured out what disease the person had.

Although the condition was clarified, it did not make them feel relieved, but made them more nervous.

Cancer is an incurable disease in the eyes of people of this era. Even though Director Liu and his colleagues are members of the health care team and are considered to be the top medical professionals in the country, they are helpless.

Although the conversation with Li Yancheng today was not that in-depth, this thought popped up in Director Liu's mind and he couldn't get rid of it.

Of course, as the deputy head of the health care team, he has no say on who should be asked to treat the patient.

But he still had the right to make suggestions. After taking a deep look at the long needle flying up and down in Li Yancheng's hand, he made a decision that even surprised himself.

Meng Lan, lying on the hospital bed, looked at the long needle that appeared and disappeared in front of her eyes, her eyes full of surprise. After looking for a while, she nodded with some difficulty.

"Thank you, Section Chief Li, for being willing to clear up my doubts. Deputy Director Zhong, please ask your people to prepare notes. I'm about to start talking. Don't ask questions or interrupt me while I'm talking." To be honest, Li Yancheng felt like cursing at this moment.

Could this old woman have done this on purpose?
Why didn't he tell her earlier if he was willing to explain himself, but had to do it only after he had fed her with such a powerful drug?

The reason why she was given this medicine was because she was unwilling to cooperate and it was a helpless act, just to gain a few more minutes in the last special interrogation.

If he didn't force her to drink it, he was sure she would be left hanging half-dead for another two days, but now...

It's brewed. Isn't this a hassle for me?
There was no other way, he could only reach out and ask Nurse Cao for a few more needles to prick Meng Lan's body a few times, trying to dissipate some of the drug's effect. Fortunately, she only drank one kind, which was a blessing in disguise.

If she took both of the medicines given at noon, she would definitely not survive tonight.

Because Meng Lan had something to explain, all irrelevant people had to leave. After saying hello to Deputy Director Zhong and Deputy Director Guan, Director Liu stepped out first, followed by Nurse Cao who also walked out of the ward.

Su Xiaotong and Tang Aijun have already prepared paper and pen. They want to write down every word Meng Lan says.

One after another, old stories came out of her mouth and came alive on the paper.

Li Yancheng also walked out of the ward after removing the needle. He went out not because he couldn't listen, but because he wanted to see Director Liu off.

"Chief Li, will the medicine you just gave Meng Lan have any side effects?"

Director Liu also thought of the medicine, and asked when he saw Li Yancheng coming out.

"I gave her an acupuncture just now to dissipate the effect of the medicine." Li Yancheng said helplessly: "This old woman has caused a lot of harm to people. If she had said she would cooperate earlier, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble."

"Haha." Director Liu smiled. "The emotions and thoughts of a dying person are usually quite strange. Okay, old man, I have been bothering you for quite some time. I will go over first today. If I have nothing else to do in the next few days, I may bother you again. I hope Chief Li will be generous with his advice."

"Director Liu, what you said is very serious. I have benefited a lot from talking with you."

"Hahahaha" Director Liu smiled and shook his head, without saying anything else.

Through Meng Lan, he has only seen the tip of the iceberg of Li Yancheng's ability to stay alive. At present, it is indeed powerful, but because there are too few cases, it is hard to say how powerful it is.

What he admired most about this young man was that he had used acupuncture to make many very practical extensions, which was equivalent to creating a new branch.

As for the effectiveness of acupuncture in treating various diseases, it is difficult to judge because the number of cases is too small, but theoretically it makes sense. What is lacking now is practical operation.

If this young man were still a doctor in the hospital, he would definitely be transferred to the main hospital immediately, and then arrange a large number of patients for him every day to observe how the acupuncture treatment method works.

Li Yancheng's acupuncture treatment method is said to be a type of traditional Chinese medicine, but in fact it is not quite the same as traditional Chinese medicine.

Chinese medicine is all about conditioning, and it uses medicines and acupuncture to adjust the yin and yang, qi and blood in the human body to an excellent state. In this way, no matter what disease the patient has, the patient will recover on his own.

This is what many people call eradication.

But this is just an ideal state. In fact, no Chinese medicine doctor dares to say that he can regulate the human body to the best level, not even the experts in these health care groups.

Most Chinese medicine practitioners are half-baked, familiar with pulse conditions, and memorize a few prescriptions before prescribing medicine for patients.

If you are lucky, you may cure several patients. If you are unlucky, people will say that you did not follow the doctor's advice.

This is also one of the reasons why so many people criticize traditional Chinese medicine.

Although Western medicine also seeks to find the cause of the disease, it generally treats the symptoms rather than the cause. If medicine can't cure it, it doesn't matter. Just cut it off. If it doesn't work, replace it.

If we dare to try to replace even our brains decades later, what else can't be replaced?

As for diseases that really cannot be identified, they are all attributed to genes. Genes are like a pocket and anything can be thrown into it. It sounds very high-sounding when people say it to others.

Li Yancheng's acupuncture treatment method is between Chinese and Western medicine. He uses the concept of Chinese medicine, but his approach is to treat the head for a headache and the foot for a foot pain.

It is still unclear whether this method will work, but Director Liu has already made up his mind.

For great doctors of Director Liu's level, there is no need to argue between Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. As long as they can relieve the patient's pain, they are good doctors.

He planned to go back and find a few patients for the young man to see first. The only problem was that Li Yancheng was not a full-time doctor, and the door of the Social Affairs Bureau was not easy to enter.

You can only report to the Social Affairs Bureau headquarters through normal procedures, and if approved, you can proceed to the next step.

While sending him out, Director Liu talked about his plans.

Li Yancheng naturally had no objection to this. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. He certainly hoped to carry forward the heritage in his mind. Even if he could cure one more patient, it would not be a waste.

At the gate of the Public Security Hospital, Director Liu left with some regrets.

He didn't see the special interrogation method that he wanted to see most today, but there was nothing he could do about it. The criminal was willing to cooperate and explain the problem, so he couldn't force him to give him a few injections.

Even if he was willing, the leaders of the Social Affairs Bureau would not agree.

Just as Director Liu's car drove away, another jeep stopped on the side of the road not far from Li Yancheng. Turning his head to look, he walked over and reached out to open the back door.

"Mom, you are here."

My mother-in-law is here.

"Dacheng, why are you standing here?" The old lady got out of the car with a smile.

Mr. Luo and his wife are full of gratitude towards their son-in-law Li Yancheng.

The old couple knew very well why they were able to return to Beijing in just one year.

If it weren't for the son-in-law's shocking behavior last June, the issues framed by Chen Zhiyuan against Mr. Luo would never have been cleared up in such a short period of time.

It is even more impossible that he was reinstated and promoted steadily in just one year.

Now someone wants to make trouble for this son-in-law. Not to mention whether this action does not take the Luo family seriously, just for the sake of this son-in-law, the old lady has to come over to take a look and support him.

It must be said that the old lady came at the perfect time.

Just now, the comrades from the Public Security Bureau saw Li Yancheng coming out, and after receiving the order, they were planning to come over and talk to him.

If you ask them to go directly to the building of the Social Affairs Bureau to talk to the person, they really don't dare. After all, if you want to talk to someone in a case, this person must be related to the case.

But the current situation is that, apart from the fact that Yan Jiaye was sent in by Li Yancheng himself and there was indeed a conflict between the two, they have been investigating today's missing case for a long time but have not found any clues related to him.

Just because this prisoner was sent in by Li Yancheng, and now he's missing, we have to talk to him?

If it were them, they themselves wouldn't be willing to do that.

What's more, they knew that the leader of the Social Affairs Bureau was also here. Yet they wanted to talk to someone without any clues at all, completely ignoring the formal procedures. Even if they were given the guts, they wouldn't dare to do such a thing.

But now that the person is out, it should be okay to stop him and ask him, right?
With this mentality in mind, the director of the Criminal Investigation Department immediately came over with his men after receiving the notice.

As soon as he walked out of the hospital gate, he saw Li Yancheng talking to an old lady. The director was about to step forward, but after seeing the license plate clearly, he immediately stopped, waved his hand, and turned to walk into the hospital.

As a result of his actions, several of his subordinates who followed him were completely confused.

"Director, what's wrong?"

"Let's go, let's go, I'm going to report to the bureau leader, I can't ask."

The man looked back at the jeep and the people standing next to the car. He realized that the problem must be with the car and the old lady.

"Director, who is that old lady?"

"She is the mother-in-law of Section Chief Li."

Well, Director Jiang’s men immediately shut up.

Li Yancheng married the youngest daughter of the Luo family, and those who are qualified to know already know it very well.

If they really want to ask someone, it's not impossible, but they have to go through the formal procedures, otherwise they will be crushed to death by just two hats.

"Dacheng, this is Bai Guifen, deputy director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Union Hospital. You can just call her Aunt Bai."

"Hello, Aunt Bai!"

"Chief Li, I'm so sorry to bother you."

"You're welcome!"

"Dacheng, Yangzi told you yesterday, right?"

"I said, Mom, let's talk about it after we go inside."

"Won't you bother me?"

"It's okay, Xiao Min is also in the lounge, Aunt Bai, please!"
