Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 142: Wolf Shepherd (Subscription Request)
The results after the preliminary election do not have a ranking of scores, but do have an order of names.

Zhou Yanqing first, Gong Zixi second, Yuan Qiong third, He Zhu fourth, and Zhang Yuanzou fifth.

Although the published results claim that there is no ranking, it is estimated that a ranking has been made, so the last two people have priority.

The four upper limbs of the two cadaver teachers are the best anatomical teaching materials. Finally, five people were selected, and it was destined that one of them would not have the opportunity to dissect upper limbs.

After hearing the result, Yuan Qiong, who ranked third, was a little depressed.

But there was no way out, the first two and the last two had the right of preference, and what awaited him was the dissection of both lower limbs.

Zhou Yanqing, Gong Zixi and the other four people chose the four upper limbs without hesitation.

After the selection, led by Professor Chen Xiang, everyone bowed three times respectfully to the two cadaver teachers before starting the dissection.

During autopsy, a single team can allow four people to operate simultaneously.

Zhou Yanqing, Gong Zixi, He Zhu and Yuan Qiong each took one of the cadaver teacher's hands and began to dissect him carefully.

The effectiveness of anatomical learning by cadaver teachers depends mainly on two points.

The first is the theoretical mastery of basic anatomy, and the second is the proficiency in incision surgery.

The basic anatomy that people normally come into contact with is of course very familiar to Zhou Yanqing and others.

But this time, Professor Chen Xiang added some more special theories and new interpretations of anatomy. These are his personal ideas and also the focus of this private class.

Anatomy is the basis of surgery, and exposure is the basis of operation.

There is a saying that goes, "Three years to study surgery is a lifetime to study exposure." This is the truth.

During the operation, Zhou Yanqing was inconspicuous.

Professor Chen Xiang mainly focused on the side of Associate Professor Gong Zixi, watching Associate Professor Gong Zixi operate and giving detailed instructions.

Among the few people, his incision skills are relatively the 'highest'.

While listening to Professor Chen Xiang's explanation, Zhou Yanqing also looked up and observed Gong Zixi's operation, and realized that the other party's operation level had also reached the expert level.

However, Zhou Yanqing did not realize that his level was much higher than his own.

Therefore, Zhou Yanqing listened to Professor Chen Xiang's instructions while learning Gong Zixi's operations on the opposite side and slowly making progress.

In fact, He Zhu and Zhang Yuansou also took the same measures, while the remaining Yuan Qiong just listened and gestured in the air.

Without sufficient resources, Yuan Qiong didn't want to just sit there and watch.

However, in addition to looking at Gong Zixi, Yuan Qiong also had more energy to pay attention to other people.

Yuan Qiong looked at them one by one, and finally stopped beside Zhou Yanqing, frowning.

After watching for two or three minutes, Yuan Qiong uttered a slight "uh..." sound.

There were only a few people in the dissection room, and everyone else was immersed in the operation. However, the more Professor Chen Xiang watched Gong Zixi's operation, the more interesting it became.

After all, as an associate professor at Kyoto Sankan, his ability and talent must be excellent.

Generally speaking, anyone who is able to get a job at Kyoto Third Hospital will definitely be accepted when applying for a job at Jishuitan, but everyone’s choices are different.

After Chen Xiang heard Yuan Qiong's voice, he inadvertently glanced in the direction of the sound, and then discovered that Zhou Yanqing on the opposite side had achieved the same level as Gong Zixi.

Chen Xiang immediately looked around at the actions of the other two people to determine whether this was the norm for everyone.

It can be seen that He Zhu and Zhang Yuanzou have a very good foundation, but they are still far from the level of Zhou Yanqing and Gong Zixi.

Chen Xiang immediately became very confused.

If we say that Zhou Yanqing is highly talented and has achieved great success so far, that should be the result of time.

Zhou Yanqing must have spent a huge amount of time on the basics of suturing. Even if he had made some progress in other basic skills, they should not have reached such a mature level.

Zhou Yanqing seemed to be completely unreasonable and had profound attainments in incision techniques.

During the preliminary selection, the importance attached to incision was far less than that to suturing, so no one knew what Zhou Yanqing's other basic skills were like.

Incisions are another major category of hand surgery.

After seeing this, Chen Xiang couldn't move his eyes.

Who would choose to eat tofu when there is meat available, unless you really like tofu.

In comparison, Zhou Yanqing has reached a level at different ages that others only reach at older ages. This is where excellence and talent lie.

"Go a little further to the left. There is a gap between the anatomy of the cadaver and the anatomy of the real patient." Chen Xiang quickly explained to Zhou Yanqing...

Gong Zixi was slightly stunned when he heard that, and after looking up, his eyes widened and he was speechless.

My incision skills are at the same level as a PhD, but my suturing skills are not as good as his. What's unfair about that?
Qualifications are a key factor in demonstrating fairness, so don't be dissatisfied.

If you are not convinced, it will be a refutation and reversal of the preferential treatment you received in the first place.

With this thought in mind, Gong Zixi simply paused for a while, imitating He Zhu and others, and carefully looked at Zhou Yanqing's level.

However, Zhou Yanqing did not disappoint them and thoroughly demonstrated his incision technique and Professor Chen Xiang's explanation to the fullest.

Just as chefs like their meals to be cleared away, Chen Xiang, as a teacher, is also very happy to see Zhou Yanqing put all the content he explained into his hands, listen to it with his ears, and even apply it in clinical practice in the future.

Zhou Yanqing was indeed a genius that Jishuitan missed, but he was still a genius and a good student.

The reason why Zhou Yanqing was eliminated from Jishuitan was not because of his name Zhou Yanqing, or because of his appearance and character, but simply because of insufficient objective conditions.

Who could have imagined that large amounts of gold could actually be mined from an ordinary ditch?
Chen Xiang did not participate in the selection process of Zhou Yanqing. Therefore, when Professor Chen Xiang saw that Zhou Yanqing was able to digest all the content he explained, he had the idea of ​​testing him.

"You continue with your own work. Yanqing, you come and try to perform tendon suture on the dry tendons of a corpse. What level do you have to go through to complete the suture on the blood vessels and nerves that have lost water?" Chen Xiang came up with this idea on the spur of the moment.

As we all know, bacon is harder to cut than fresh meat, and its anatomical layers are more confusing.

It is even more challenging to cut off and then suture the nerves and blood vessels that have been soaked in formalin.

Professor Chen Xiang did not ask the other people to do it, but after following Zhou Yanqing's instructions to complete the incision, the other people also followed Zhou Yanqing's example and sutured the dried blood vessels and nerves.

About three minutes later, Gong Zixi was the first person to give up following Zhou Yanqing's stitching steps.

It's not that Gong Zixi is the worst, but that Gong Zixi has profound skills and has anticipated Zhou Yanqing's current level of suturing, which is not something they can imitate.

Instead of being tortured, it is better to stand up and watch Zhou Yanqing's performance.

After Gong Zixi stood up, he saw Zhou Yanqing had just finished suturing the brachial artery, and was now suturing the brachial artery's branches, the ulnar artery, the radial artery, and the deep brachial artery. This operation was not simple. Just by looking at the degree of dryness of the blood vessels, the dried blood inside, and the extremely tough stump of the blood vessels, one could tell that -

Every stitch Zhou Yanqing sutures is actually very strenuous. The more strenuous it is and the more strenuous the operation is, the more demanding the proficiency of the operation is.

"If this were a clinical procedure, wouldn't his stitches be flying off the seams?" Gong Zixi murmured after giving up the operation.

At about this time, He Zhu and Zhang Yuanzou gave up following the progress and began to watch Zhou Yanqing's one-man show throughout.

Only Yuan Qiong occasionally looked at the time.

I want to remind Professor Chen Xiang that the time is almost up and he needs to start practicing by cutting his lower limbs, otherwise his two lower limbs will be misaligned.

At least let him practice for a while first.

Professor Chen Xiang had set the alarm clock, and when it rang, he said, "Yuan Qiong, Gong Zixi, go and finish the dissection of the lower limbs first."

"I'll come back to see what you're doing later."

Chen Xiang was obviously unable to move, and after explaining, he began to ask with concern: "Yanqing, don't be anxious, take your time."

"The difficulty of suturing a cadaver is at least five times that of clinical vascular and nerve suturing. If you can complete such an operation, you have accumulated a very good technical skill."

"This is a trick. There is a possibility to further improve the suturing technique from your current level. It is a feeling of operation, absolute control of distance, and absolute ease of operation."

"If you want to..."

Professor Chen Xiang's explanation to Zhou Yanqing is no longer limited to the gross anatomy currently performed, but goes from the basics to the complex.

From complex to simple.

Chen Xiang was guiding Zhou Yanqing to take a higher level step. If Zhou Yanqing could take that step, it would be truly amazing.

If we ignore Zhou Yanqing’s age, there are at least several hundred people in the country who are at the same level as him, if not a thousand.

But if you go a step further, the number drops exponentially to around twenty.

A yield rate close to one-fiftieth.

This time, it was He Zhu and Yuan Qiong's turn to just watch, casting envious and jealous looks and shaking their heads.

They believed that if they were to do it themselves, they would not be able to achieve anything that Zhou Yanqing could do.

Zhou Yanqing relied on his absolute hardcore strength to gain exclusive favor.

This was in front of everyone.

……

Of course, Professor Chen Xiang did not waste too much time because of Zhou Yanqing. He was still rational and knew that he could not affect the class.

However, when dissecting the lower limbs, Chen Xiang stood directly beside Zhou Yanqing and even put on sterile gloves. Occasionally, he picked up the scalpel and demonstrated the operation to Zhou Yanqing on the leg where Yuan Qiong was operating.

Yuan Qiong felt very disappointed.

Brother, I am already in a disadvantaged position. I am not the optimal solution in anatomy. Do you want to take up my opportunity to teach others?

Can one be so biased?

However, the heart is biased. Do you think people can be unbiased?
Chen Xiang didn't pay much attention to Yuan Qiong's emotions. He said as he operated: "So, here, this position is displayed on the cadaver teacher..."

"And its clinical effect is..."

"Yanqing, this is very important."

"Yanqing..."

A long and good anatomy teaching class was turned into Zhou Yanqing's personal private lesson by Chen Xiang. Chen Xiang is Zhou Yanqing's exclusive teacher and is not available to anyone else.

After Chen Xiang finished his operation, Yuan Qiong looked at Professor Chen Xiang with a resentful look.

Because he only got the opportunity to dissect one leg in the end, the other leg was dissected and taught thoroughly by Professor Chen Xiang himself.

Where is the place for Yuan Qiong?

Let me be honest, if you can't afford it, then don't give it. Why is the teacher snatching my opportunity?
Chen Xiang also discovered all this after the operation, but he did not explain it in detail. He clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this lesson on anatomy ends here."

“Anatomy is the foundation of surgery. Anatomy can never be fully defined. We must constantly discover the shortcomings of anatomy in clinical practice and put forward our own opinions.”

“I hope that you can pay more attention to anatomy in your future clinical work, and slowly experience and understand it. If you have the opportunity to learn from a cadaver teacher again, you must think more about it…”

"It's almost time now, and it's time for lunch."

"You all, are you all going to eat?"

Gong Zixi and the others nodded, including Yuan Qiong, who did not dare to complain, but her resentful eyes became more resentful, and finally all the emotions merged into silent silence.

"Yanqing, let's go to the cafeteria to eat together." After Professor Chen Xiang gave the instructions and went out to hand over to the teacher in the anatomy lab, he shouted again at the door.

This sentence caused five heads to turn, but in the end only Zhou Yanqing responded: "Okay, Professor Chen."

Although this is obviously Professor Chen Xiang's preference, Zhou Yanqing didn't dare not respond, right?

The others all wisely formed a team and left...

If you say Chen Xiang is biased, then isn't he good at teaching?

I have taught you and given you some pointers and demonstrations, right?
As for absolute fairness, it definitely does not exist. Otherwise, why would the fourth and fifth persons only have the opportunity to operate one limb?
……

Downstairs in the anatomy room, Zhang Yuansou and He Zhu formed a pair, while Gong Zixi and Yuan Qiong from the Third Hospital of Kyoto were old friends, so they formed another team.

When the two teams were about to part, Yuan Qiong asked with resentment: "Brothers, what do you think of Zhou Yanqing?"

"I think we should use a scanner."

Zhou Yanqing was able to stand out in this anatomy class, so wouldn't he be able to take off once he returned to the big classroom?
Oh no, it should be said that Zhou Yanqing has already taken off now.

It flew to a height that even Yuan Qiong felt she couldn't hold on to, and even found it hard to compare with!
"Alas!~"

"It can only be said that we were born at the wrong time. How come we have encountered such a ghost child now?"

"Calling him a freak is flattering him. He is simply not a human being. He is even more evil than a demon. He is close to a ghost, isn't he?" He Zhu said with a smile.
Gong Zixi joked: "After the founding of the country, you are not allowed to become a spirit."
