Over the next few days, Ling Ran pressured Zuo Cidian into operating on Colles’ fractures .
Ling Ran was not a person who liked to speak, so his way of teaching was through demonstration and correction .
If it could be done through manual reduction, then a manual reduction would be carried out . If it could not be done through manual reduction, the patients would be sent to the operating theater to have volar or dorsal plates placed inside their arms . If the fracture was worse, an external fixation method would be used .
Ling Ran would hand over patients who needed manual reduction, as well as the three methods of fracture fixing, to Zuo Cidian if he could manage them . Ling Ran would step in and take over for the parts that Zuo Cidian could not handle or do well in .
The four treatment models were repeated over and over, and in the eyes of outsiders, it looked like Ling Ran was making Zuo Cidian go through college entrance examination drills…
Over and over again…
Over and over again… If Zuo Cidian’s mood was initially happy and full of initiative to learn, then after treating bone fractures multiple times and Colles’ fracture repeatedly, Zuo Cidian would have mixed feelings .
Ultimately, he could not refuse to treat those patients, but the moment he opened his eyes in the morning, he would still feel incredibly depressed .
Even when he went to bed at night, he would not feel relieved because when he would still dream that he was performing Colles’ fracture in his sleep .
Zhang Anmin shouted, “Old Zuo, why are you lingering about at the door? Hurry up and go in, I saw two cases of Colles’ fracture from the ambulance . ”
Zuo Cidian turned around to see Zhang Anmin alone, and he could not help but laugh dumbly, “Did you mistake it? Perhaps it’s actually Smith’s fracture?”
When one fell on their hands because they were trying to support themselves, if the arm was broken, it would be Colles’ fracture, and when the back of the hand hit the ground, it would be Smith’s fracture .
Although the difference between the two types of fractures was not great for an orthopedist, the difference was greater to Zuo Cidian . The day before yesterday, there was a patient who was thought to be suffering from Colles’ fracture before he reached the hospital . But upon arriving at Yun Hua Hospital, it was found that he suffered from Smith’s fracture, the patient was then sent to the Orthopedics Department, and Zuo Cidian cherished that misdiagnosis for a few hours .

He could not cherish that memory for much longer, because he was busy .
Zhang Anmin did not know about the fluctuating state in Zuo Cidian’s mind . He pursed his lips and said, “Aren’t you proud of yourself? How many hospitals do you think Department Director Huo has spoken to? Now, it’s a great shame for paramedics to mistake Colles’ fracture and Smith’s fracture, you know?”
“If someone died on the operating table, it would be just as shameful, but those who are fated to die will eventually die anyway . ” Zuo Cidian did not acknowledge Zhang Anmin’s words and continued pacing back and forth around the door .
“Aren’t you going in?” Zhang Anmin asked .
“I’ll get to work in two minutes . ” Zuo Cidian looked at his watch and sighed again, “Forget it, let’s go . ”
Once he said that, Zuo Cidian stepped into the hospital as if he was sacrificing everything .
The information desk was crowded…
There were people around the treatment room…
There were even more people in the waiting hall…
“Doctor Ling is not here . ” Zuo Cidian let out a breath quietly .
“It’s a given that Doctor Ling is in the operating theater, right? He asked you to go and look for him once you arrived . ” Zhang Anmin stood behind Zuo Cidian with his eyes full of envy .
With Zuo Cidian’s EQ, it was only natural that he could see Zhang Anmin’s envy . In fact, Zuo Cidian guessed that if he knew that others could get such attentive teaching from Doctor Ling, he would probably be jealous and envious too .
However, now that it was his turn, it was a little more difficult than he initially thought it would be .
‘It’s the kind of difficulty that others can’t experience . ’ Zuo Cidian thought to himself and felt slightly better .

In truth, it was just that he was too old . If this were ten years ago, Zuo Cidian would definitely not suffer from such a headache, aching back and legs, and this feeling of weakness all over his body…
“Youth is a treasure . ” Zuo Cidian could not help but feel envious of Zhang Anmin .
Zhang Anmin just shrugged and said, “I have an elderly patient here, fifty-eight years old, and he has fatty liver as well as hepatolithiasis . What’s slightly more unique about him is that the patient has a combination of clonorchiasis as well . You can ask Doctor Ling and see if you’re interested in doing that . ”
“Why don’t you go to Doctor Ling directly?” As soon as Zuo Cidian’s words came out, he knew that he had asked a stupid question .
Zhang Anmin hummed . “Doctor Ling released me so that he can perform the surgery on his own . He said that he wanted to show it to all of you in the group . In the end, the assistant was either Lu Wenbin or Ma Yanlin, and then, you’re in charge of watching him perform the operations with Colles’ fracture . Sigh, seriously, it’s just a Colles’ fracture, and it was performed so thoroughly . ”
“Doctor Ling’s expectations are relatively high . ” When Zuo Cidian said this, the corners of his mouth went upwards as he smiled, “It might just be an operation to treat a fracture, there are quite a lot of details to pay attention to . I guess that once I practice it a little more, I may even be able to perform surgery on amateur athletes . ”
He did not dare to say that he would be able to perform on professional athletes for fear of being too arrogant and offensive .
In addition, doctors who could perform surgery on professional athletes had a relatively high income . Zuo Cidian felt that it was better to slowly become better .
Zhang Anmin could still hear the undertone of Zuo Cidian showing off .
‘No matter how hard a fracture operation is, it’s still just an orthopedic operation . ’ Zhang Anmin comforted himself in his heart, but he was too embarrassed to say it .
There was never any need for words required for departments to regard each other in contempt . Furthermore, Zhang Anmin was still a little sensitive about his position in the small group, so it was not good to ridicule the current core member, Zuo Cidian .
Zuo Cidian rested for another two minutes before he went to the Operating Area, changed his clothes, and went inside to look for Ling Ran .
After opening the door, Ling Ran was seen standing sideways to the direction of the door . His green coat fluttered, his hands were covered in blood . He held a scalpel in one hand and a liver in another; he was gentle opening it up .
Around the operating table and the corner of the operating theater were roughly ten people . They craned their heads and watched Ling Ran operate .
Opening a liver with his bare hands was basically one of Ling Rang’s outstanding skills now .
Unlike the prudence exercised by other doctors who opened up the liver with their bare hands, which would limit their technique to certain types of hepatectomy only, Ling Ran’s technique in opening up the liver with his bare hands could be applied in a broader range . It could practically be used in all other kinds of hepatectomy other than liver cancer .
From an empirical science perspective, when Ling Ran continued to complete difficult operations in that way, his surgical methods would naturally receive the attention of all parties, so much so that they would come and observe to learn .
The people standing in the operating theater now were doctors from all over Changxi Province . They did not necessarily come here to learn Ling Ran’s technique in opening up the liver, but it was still very necessary for Changxi Province’s hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgeons to deeply understand the technique of the best hepatectomy surgeon in the province .
Zuo Cidian subconsciously developed a sense of pride . He knew that so many people came to Yun Hua Hospital to watch Ling Ran’s surgery because they wanted to invite Ling Ran to perform freelance surgery . However, they were unable to as there were too many people ahead of them .
As a resident doctor who watched over the work in that area, Zuo Cidian had watched Ling Ran’s influence increase in a straight line . From the beginning, only one or two hospitals invited him, and Ling Ran could perform freelance surgeries every week . Now, there were more than a hundred hospitals and individuals who invited Ling Ran over as a freelance surgeon . No matter how efficient Ling Ran was, he could not respond to so many units . In order not to offend anyone, Zuo Cidian announced a lot of requirements for Ling Ran’s freelance surgery…
The hospital’s scope, the number of patients, the relationship between doctors and Yun Hua Hospital, the patients’ condition, the price of freelance surgery, and other factors were all used by Zuo Cidian as a threshold to reduce the number of freelance surgeries .
Even so, Ling Ran was still able to perform freelance surgery frequently, and he also proved himself to possess fairly competent .
“Doctor Ling . ” Zuo Cidian greeted Ling Ran .
Ling Ran nodded and said, “If you’ve washed your hands, you can come and help Lu Wenbin . ”
Lu Wenbin nodded quickly but also had a look of anguish on his face .
“I’ve already washed my hands . ” Zuo Cidian quickly stepped to the table and obediently prepared to operate the retractor .
“Wait a moment . ” Ling Ran suddenly paused and looked at Zuo Cidian .
Various sounds and images suddenly came into Ling Ran’s mind .
[Mission Completed: Train a rookie]
[Mission Aim: Increase the skill level of a doctor]
[Reward: Intermediate Treasure Chest]
Then, an Intermediate Treasure Chest appeared in front of Ling Ran .
Ling Ran looked at Zuo Cidian from head to toe and judged him . It was impossible that his skill leveled up just by coming to the table without even touching the retractor .
At this time, Lu Wenbin said next to him, “Doctor Ling, I have some questions about hepatectomy…”
As Ling Ran listened to Lu Wenbin summarize and question him in a stream of words, he subconsciously came to a realization . It turned out that Lu Wenbin’s hepatectomy skills had been upgraded from zero to Novice Level, which was how Ling Ran completed the mission .
Ling Ran could not help but look at Zuo Cidian .
Zuo Cidian was clueless, so he just kept smiling: :3
