Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 162 'Niu You Juan' and Yu Gang (Subscription Request)

The Young Doctors Competition is divided into two tracks, one is the postgraduate track and the other is the non-postgraduate track.

The postgraduate track focuses on teaching foundation, while the non-postgraduate track focuses on postgraduate students’ foundation.

The next day.

After finishing his rounds, Zhou Yanqing relaxed and did not start the intensive work of arranging surgeries.

Following the principle of combining work and rest, Zhou Yanqing has not spent much time on surgery for a long time recently.

After checking the room, Yu Yue immediately found Zhou Yanqing and said hesitantly, "Yanqing, what will you do in the next month?"

"You really spend most of your time in the training room and not in the operating room?"

After Tan Zhongyu told Yu Yue the news, Yu Yue found it unbelievable.

Zhou Yanqing is a study maniac. He is very good at studying and has earned the nickname "Beef Roll" in the Department of Orthopedics at Xiangya Hospital.

Zhou Yanqing nodded slightly: "Brother Yu, yes. I also want to take a good rest for a while. I want to continue to settle down and consolidate my theory."

"It's a bit tiring to continue to simply repeat the operation."

Infinite repetition would be of great benefit to Zhou Yanqing's improvement, but Zhou Yanqing still wanted to say this, not because he was worried about his own body, but because he was worried about the safety of his master.

After all, Tan Zhongyu is already in his fifties. How can his physical fitness be compared with mine?
Zhou Yanqing didn't want to outlast his teacher before he even became an apprentice.

"Yanqing! It's time to rest!" Yu Yue said.

I was screaming in my heart, this beast finally behaved like a human being, he even knew he was tired!

Niu Youjuan, with the physical strength of a cow and the awesome appearance, finally looks a bit like a human being, and he even knows how to get tired.

You know, Zhou Yanqing's current achievements are enough to make Huang Xianming and even Tan Zhongyu envious, but Zhou Yanqing is still rolling, as if he is tireless.

"Really, Yanqing, if I were you, I would definitely spend more time with my girlfriend, or go to the Internet cafe to play games for a while."

"We are already so far ahead. If you work hard not for the sake of ease, then your efforts will become meaningless!" Yu Yue advised.

Due to Zhou Yanqing's intervention, the atmosphere in the group has now become full of twists and turns.

Vegetable rolls, meat rolls...

Zhou Yanqing has corrupted the atmosphere in the department and has basically become someone else's graduate student.

I heard that professors from other groups often say, look at Zhou Yanqing, he is so outstanding and still works so hard, what qualifications do you have to not work hard?

"Brother Yu, do you think it is possible that I can rest, but your training volume will be doubled?" Zhou Yanqing asked with a smile.

Now, Zhou Yanqing is able to handle tasks with ease as he realizes his own strengths and knows his position in the group.

Having focus in doing things and direction in doing things is the greatest source of self-confidence.

I don't need to compare myself to anyone but myself.

Even though many of the master's fellow students are not as outstanding as Zhou Yanqing, they will not lose their direction because of Zhou Yanqing's excellence. This is the quality reserve they have made in the early stages.

Other people’s excellence has nothing to do with you. You just need to know that no matter how excellent others are, if you don’t make progress, your opportunities will only get even fewer!
"Ah?" Yu Yue was stunned at first, then nodded immediately.

"It's okay, Yanqing, I can handle it. You can be stronger, but be gentler."

Arrogant Senior Brother Yu Yue has begun to show some "speeding" attitude in front of Zhou Yanqing.

In the eyes of others, Yu Yue is still a superior doctoral senior brother. His basic skills are not inferior to those of senior brother Liu Wanqing, and he is even better in some operational abilities.

As one of the "specialized doctors" in trauma surgery, Yu Yue has a very high and special status in the department.

"It would be even better if I could be like Brother Ning Zhu." Yu Yue smiled gently.

This time, the contestants in the two major tracks in the department are Ning Zhu and Yu Yue.

Ning Zhu went to the non-graduate track, and Yu Yue focused on the graduate track.

The reason for this division is that the postgraduate track demonstrates teaching foundation, while the non-postgraduate track demonstrates strength foundation.

Zhou Yanqing pursed his lips and asked, "Brother, what kind of coffee would you like to drink?"

"Ah? Are you treating me?" Yu Yue didn't react for a moment.

Zhou Yanqing nodded.

"Then just click X2." Yu Yue didn't hesitate.

While paying, Zhou Yanqing explained: "Brother, I don't actually have any so-called skills. I rely entirely on quantitative changes to lead to qualitative changes."

"So, in this process, I may not be able to give you more shortcuts."

"What I can do is to teach you the shortcomings of your operations over and over again."

How could Zhou Yanqing know how to teach?
Even if you teach by words and deeds, it is impossible to improve teaching ability in such a short time.

In this world, which student has not been a student for more than ten years, but how many of them can really be good teachers?
The word "teaching" is actually worth continuing to study.

As long as there is no cultural gap, the discussion about teaching will never stop.

"That's enough." Yu Yue said with a smile.

"Yanqing, if I can win the championship this time, I will give you some of the prize money."

Having someone of Zhou Yanqing's level to guide you every day and correct your mistakes from time to time is something that others can hardly find.

"Brother Yu, are you sure that you really need my help to win the championship? I feel that if you participate in the competition on your own, it will be a sure thing for you." Zhou Yanqing suddenly asked.

Yu Yue is very capable.

Xiangya Hospital is lucky to have such a talented player like Yu Yue, but it is impossible for the Second Hospital and the Third Hospital to have one at the same time.

People like Yu Yue are not everywhere.

Yu Yue heard this and said, "Yanqing, what you said is wrong."

“There is no distinction between master’s and doctoral students in graduate school!”

"There's no one in our class, but won't there be rivals for me in the classes above and below me?"

Yu Yue then said in a gloomy tone and with a resentful look in his eyes: "For example, Yanqing, aren't you an unexpected accident?"

Zhou Yanqing will not participate in the competition this time, otherwise, he would not have been able to compete for the championship and special prize in the graduate track.

Even if Zhou Yanqing were allowed to go on a non-graduate track, people like Yu Yue would be tortured to the point of crying and cursing Zhou Yanqing, asking where the hell this bastard came from.

"Thank you for the compliment, senior brother. I don't think it's an accident, but the result of hard work and a little bit of talent." Zhou Yanqing smiled and stood up and walked towards the training room with Yu Yue.

……

In a flash, a week passed.

4 month 27 day.

One o'clock.

It was as bright as day in the training room.

The hospital pays for the electricity costs for the lights, air conditioning and exhaust fans in the practice room.

Yu Yue looked at Zhou Yanqing, his lips trembling slightly, and fear in his eyes.

"Yanqing, I think we need to combine work and rest!" Yu Yue said.

Zhou Yanqing has been training him for a week straight. He comes home at two in the evening every day and goes to the practice room at nine in the morning.

You know, I have to hand over the ward rounds at 8 o'clock in the morning, and I get less than five hours of sleep a day!
Every day!
Zhou Yanqing ate takeout, drank beverages or large bottles of mineral water and basically never left the practice room.

"Brother, I know, but I think what's more important is that you work hard and I rest!"

"At least it's been like this for the past month." "You are now very close to the next breakthrough." Zhou Yanqing, who was holding a notebook in his hand, put down his pen, stood up and watched Yu Yue suture.

Yu Yue's current suture skills are certainly a step forward compared to when Zhou Yanqing first came two years ago, but he is still a little short of vascular suture.

Yu Yue can now suture the blood vessel model very well, but he still lacks some skills to complete the reconnection and suture of the severed coccygeal artery.

What Zhou Yanqing is training now is to push him one step forward!
The best result would be to allow Yu Yue to master the suturing technique of two broken sections and three broken sections before participating in the competition. In this way, the result Yu Yue can get in the end would be almost certain.

"Yanqing, I feel like it's not a matter of quantity right now. I need to summarize and I need to rest." Yu Yue had already started to evade himself a little.

He felt that Zhou Yanqing didn't know how to teach at all and was just scolding him to death.

This kind of training method is much more cruel than that used on Senior Brother Liu Wanqing and Brother Ning Zhu.

"Brother, what you need now is repetition."

"Go on, sew it five or six more times and we'll be done for today..." Zhou Yanqing insisted.

After saying that, he sat down at the table, picked up the pen and continued to take notes.

Ordinary people do not learn new surgical procedures by burying their heads in work and conducting trial and error on the operating table.

Although there was no surgery to be performed, Zhou Yanqing was unwilling to waste his time.

Being idle is also idle.

Yu Yue didn't dare to say anything more. He continued to sew while enduring his fatigue.

If he left in anger now, Zhou Yanqing might not come later.

I repeat, Zhou Yanqing is just like his master Tan Zhongyu. Zhou Yanqing is here with you all the time. As a learner, what qualifications do you have to say that you can't practice anymore?

We are all adults, no one forces you to grow up.

To put it bluntly, even if you, Yu Yue, starved to death, you can't blame Zhou Yanqing.

The reverse is also true; this is the simplest truth in sociology.

Yu Yue felt that the stitching on his back was a mess.

After all his physical strength and energy were squeezed to the extreme, he didn't even know what he was doing.

The only sound that sounded like nature was Zhou Yanqing’s cell phone alarm.

At 1:55 in the morning, Zhou Yanqing's alarm rang. Yu Yue felt that he was about to be liberated, so he quickly finished the last few stitches.

He looked up at the time again and said, "Yanqing, it's time. Let's clean up the table and go back, shall we?"

"Let's test it!" Zhou Yanqing walked closer and looked at Yu Yue's suture results.

Yu Yue said with a guilty conscience: "Actually, there is no need for this..."

For the last few stitches, he just sewed them randomly, without paying attention to any principles, data or angles.

It would be strange if this could succeed.

"Let's test it!" Zhou Yanqing pressed the button of the instant vascular measuring instrument.

Yu Yue instinctively felt despair in his heart, but he could only wait patiently.

After a few beeping sounds.

Suddenly a green number flashed.

95.6%!
?
Yu Yue rubbed his eyes and continued to look at the numbers.

"95.6%!"

Yu Yue was very sure of the authenticity of the green number, and then looked at Zhou Yanqing in disbelief, then looked at the table, and finally looked at his own hands.

Surprise, melancholy, and disbelief intertwined on his face, forming a complex expression.

Zhou Yanqing laughed.

From Zhou Yanqing's current perspective, looking at Yu Yue's level is like an adult beating a child, and every hit is accurate.

Zhou Yanqing knew that Yu Yue's level had improved, so he squeezed his energy to the extreme and allowed him to reach this threshold as soon as possible.

When the success rate of simple suturing of two blood vessels reaches over 95%, it is the beginning of practicing suturing of two or three blood vessels.

That is when trial and error begins.

"Yes, senior brother, you have crossed it. Even earlier than senior brother Liu!" Zhou Yanqing said.

Sometimes, if you don’t push your potential, you really don’t know how powerful it is.

Yu Yue was soon overjoyed: "Is it true? Yanqing, can you pinch me?"

Yu Yue originally thought that if he could start suturing blood vessels before graduation, he would be ahead of most people.

Brother Ning Zhu, such an outstanding senior, was only able to start suturing blood vessels in his last year of doctoral studies, and was only able to complete two-segment and three-segment suturing a year after graduating from his doctorate.

Can?
With the appearance of Zhou Yanqing and his intervention in the most clumsy way, this time seemed to be brought forward again.

"Brother, I'm sleepy. I'm going back first."

"You should go back and rest early too." Zhou Yanqing knew that Yu Yue was definitely not sleepy at all now.

If he doesn't do a few more stitches to get a feel for the surgery, he won't be called a surgeon anymore.

At most, you'll just stay up all night, but you won't die!
"Yanqing, pinch me, Yanqing, pinch me..." Yu Yue seemed like Zhou Yanqing's junior brother, with the mentality of a young man.

But Zhou Yanqing had already walked away with his backpack.

Yu Yue looked at Zhou Yanqing's back, and his mind inexplicably became silent again.

Perhaps only a pure ascetic like Zhou Yanqing can be reborn in the repetitive "desperate situations". This is Zhou Yanqing's most clumsy "talent".

Diligence can make up for weakness!

Yu Yue stayed and no longer considered going back to sleep.

Just kidding, Yu Yue will take his first step into the field of hand surgery and replantation of severed fingers. It would be strange if he can sleep well.

three o'clock.

Yu Yue still failed again.

But at 95:, Yu Yue had sutured more than % of the blood vessels again!
At 3:37, Yu Yue sewed it out for the third time.

The moment he put down the thread cutters and needle holder, Yu Yue felt that he had been sublimated.

At this time, he looked back at the stitches he had made before, and they were all garbage!
"Perhaps this is what Master often calls entering the inner chamber." Yu Yue murmured in a low voice.

I also understand how much my former junior fellow students, masters, and senior brothers wanted to laugh at my level.

But they didn't laugh.

Before you have mastered the basic skills of suturing to this level, you have not yet reached the real threshold of entering hand surgery.

But I have taken this step.

Thank you for your efforts, thank you for your brothers’ pressure, thank you for your dedication, and thank you for the night.

After Yu Yue carefully cleaned up the operating table, he went straight to the department without going home.

It's late and I'm tired, so I just need to find a bed to sleep on. It doesn't have to be a very good one.

I will continue tomorrow!

My name is Yu Gang.
