Reincarnation - The Divine Doctor and Stay-at-home Dad

Chapter 770 Wake Up the Vegetable

Zhuo Bufan looked through all the examination reports. The more he read, the more serious he became. After he finished reading, Shen Tiejun asked, “Doctor Zhuo, is it possible to cure my father’s disease?”

Zhuo Bufan put down the materials and said, “The patient is seriously ill now. If it was just an ordinary nerve rupture, we could treat him through surgery, but the patient’s nerves are damaged inside the cerebral cortex.”

“The brain is one of the most complicated organs in the human body. If another organ is touched during the operation, the patient is likely to be brain dead or permanently paralyzed, so the operation cannot be performed in this case.”

Shao Weimin frowned. He had invited Zhuo Bufan here with great hope.

“Doctor Zhuo, what kind of treatment plan do you think should be adopted in this case?”

“Given the patient’s overall condition, the best choice is conservative treatment,” Zhuo Bufan said.

Qin Haodong couldn’t help but say, “What do you mean by conservative treatment? Are you going to let the patient sleep like this?”

Zhuo Bufan glanced at him and said, “For now, that’s the only way.”

Qin Haodong sneered, “Is this the plan given by an expert like you? What difference have you made?”

“Of course I’ve made a difference. I’m an expert in neurology,” he said proudly. “I have recently developed a new drug that can extend a patient’s life by at least three to five years.”

“Three to five years?” Qin Haodong sneered, “Do you mean to keep the patient in bed like this for another three to five years?”

Zhuo Bufan said, “I’m sure this is the best treatment in the world. Life is precious, but it’s better to be in a vegetative state than dead.”

“You’re wrong. This is the best treatment that your Western medicine can provide, but our traditional Chinese medicine is different.”

Zhuo Bufan said coldly, “What do you mean? Do you have a better treatment plan?”

Qin Haodong said indifferently, “If you hadn’t made trouble just now, the old man would have stood up now.”

“What a great joke!” Zhuo Bufan said with disdain, “I have long heard that traditional Chinese medicine is a trick to deceive people, and I have learned that today.”

“I’m afraid not even God can wake up a vegetable that has been sleeping for five years, but you claim you can. It’s obvious you’re lying.”

Seeing that the two people were quarreling again, Shao Weimin quickly stepped forward and said, “Doctor Zhuo, Doctor Qin has excellent medical skills and is known as the Medical Sage in Huaxia.”

At this time, he was very regretful. If he had known that Qin Haodong was here, he would not have brought Zhuo Bufan over. Both of them were excellent doctors, but Western and Chinese medicine had completely different ideas.

Zhuo Bufan said with a sneer, “Medical Sage? Western medicine is so developed, but no one dares to call himself a Medical Sage. Only Chinese medicine practitioner dares to do so to win the favor of people and deceive ignorant patients.”

Qin Haodong didn’t want to argue with this kind of person. He turned to Shen Tiejun and said, “Uncle Shen, if you believe in traditional Chinese medicine, I’ll treat the old master. If you don’t believe me, then I’ll leave now.”

Mu Baisen cried out, “Of course I believe you! How could we not believe you! It was Little Qin who saved me. I believe he can do the same for my old leader.”

“I don’t agree with the unscientific treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, which can only aggravate the patient’s condition or even lead to his death,” Zhuo Bufan said. “The best choice is conservative treatment.”

Qin Haodong pointed at him and said, “Your so-called conservative treatment is to let this old general, who has been galloping across the battlefield, lie in bed forever. It isn’t therapy for him at all. It is torture.”

“What’s the point of your so-called therapy, which only prolongs the suffering for another 3–5 years?”

After that, he turned to Shen Tiejun for a reply without waiting for Zhuo Bufan to refute. After all, he was the patient’s family, and the final treatment was up to him.

Zhuo Bufan said, “Mr. Shen, I hope you will consider it carefully. This irresponsible treatment can only worsen the patient’s condition.”

Faced with this dilemma, Shen Tiejun hesitated for a long time before finally looking up and saying, “I know my father’s personality. He doesn’t want to live just for the sake of remaining alive. Lying in bed like this was really torture for him. I accept the treatment of Doctor Qin.”

After that, he turned around and gave Qin Haodong a standard military salute. “Doctor Qin, please save my father.”

“Nonsense! It’s nonsense!” Zhuo Bufan turned around in annoyance and said to Shao Weimin, “Minister Shao, I think you should stand out and stop this farce.”

Shao Weimin was also dissatisfied with Zhuo Bufan’s arrogance and stubbornness. He said, “Doctor Zhuo, this is not a farce. Traditional Chinese medicine can also cure diseases.”

“What...”

Although Zhuo Bufan was arrogant, he didn’t dare to offend Shao Weimin’s authority. After thinking for a while, he turned to Qin Haodong and said, “Since you have decided to treat him, how about making a bet?”

Qin Haodong said, “Okay, but on what?”

“If you fail to treat him this time, you must apologize to all the Huaxia people in public, revoke your title of Medical Sage, and admit that traditional Chinese medicine is a trick.”

Qin Haodong looked at Zhuo Bufan with gleaming eyes and said coldly, “Doctor Zhuo, I think you should be clear about one thing. Traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for thousands of years. It’s a treasure of our nation. It’s definitely not a trick.

“Even your ancestors survived with traditional Chinese medicine. It can be said that without Chinese medicine, neither of us would have been born.

“Even if I can’t cure Mr. Shen’s illness, it only proves that I don’t know enough about traditional Chinese medicine. It has nothing to do with TCM itself.”

Zhuo Bufan sneered, “These are all excuses. Don’t you dare to bet with me?”

Qin Haodong said, “Of course I will bet with you! But the stakes have to change. If I lose, I will publicly apologize to the whole nation, revoke my title as the Medical Sage, and say goodbye to the profession of doctor. I will never be a doctor again.”

Zhuo Bufan said, “That’s fine. If I lose, I’ll also apologize to traditional Chinese medicine in public. At the same time, I’ll say goodbye to the profession of doctor.”

“No, I’m not so narrow-minded as you.” Qin Haodong looked at Zhuo Bufan and said, “I think your suit is good, so use it as the bet. If you lose, you’ll take off this suit and give it to me.”

Zhuo Bufan’s expression suddenly changed. The bet seemed small, but if he was stripped of his clothes in public, how would he, a returned doctor, an expert in internal medicine, and vice president of the central hospital, face the public in the future?

Seeing that he was hesitating, Qin Haodong asked, “What’s wrong, Doctor Zhuo? Don’t you dare?”

“There’s nothing I don’t dare to do. That’s settled then.”

As a medical expert who had studied in M Country, he had almost seen all the medical cases in the world. He had never heard of anyone who could wake up a vegetable in a short period of time. It was absolutely impossible.

So he was sure he would win. He would even risk his own life, let alone a suit.

After that, he turned to Shao Weimin and said, “Minister Shao, please be a witness for us. Otherwise, someone will go back on his promise.”

Shao Weimin looked embarrassed. One of them was the best Chinese medicine practitioner in Huaxia while the other was the leading figure in Western medicine. Both of them were his right-hand man.

But here they were, and he could not refuse. He could only say, “Well, I’ll make a notary for you two.”

After the bet was settled, Qin Haodong took out the silver needles again and walked back to the bed.

He had 100 percent confidence in the treatment. He didn’t know the structure of the human brain or the composition of neurons, but these things meant nothing to him.

As a Chinese medicine practitioner, he only needed to know where the problem with the patient’s meridians was and then try to solve it.

Under the observation of his Spirit, he locked on to the location where Shen Anguo’s nerves were damaged. Then, he began to use the Rejuvenative Acupuncture to connect his damaged nerves.

Soon, more than a dozen silver needles were pierced into the major acupuncture point on Shen Anguo’s head. The Green Wood Genuine Qi kept pouring into Shen Anguo’s body along with the silver needles, nourishing his injured meridians with the Revival Acupuncture Method.

About 10 minutes later, he took back the silver needles. At this time, all the injured meridians had been connected, and the meridians in his head became normal once again.

After putting away the silver needles, he massaged Shen Anguo’s chest and Dantian a few more times. The patient had been lying in bed for five years. Although his organs were intact, his meridians and blood had fallen into a semi-conscious state. His body was completely activated after being nourished by the Green Wood Genuine Qi.

All those around looked at Qin Haodong nervously while Zhuo Bufan was still waiting in disdain. He looked at the ceiling, waiting for Qin Haodong to make a fool of himself.

Seeing Qin Haodong put away the silver needles, Shen Tiejun hurriedly asked, “Doctor Qin, how is my father?”

“No problem. He’s fully recovered now.”

After Qin Haodong said that, he turned to Zhuo Bufan and said, “Doctor Zhuo, your suit is already mine. Take it off quickly.”

“That’s ridiculous!” Zhuo Bufan took a look at Shen Anguo, who was still lying in bed. “Are you sure he’s cured? I suggest you hurry up and do another examination on your patient. I’m afraid that he’s brain dead now.”

“Don’t worry, he’ll be fine!”

Shen Anguo had been asleep for a long time. Qin Haodong gave him a buffer time.

Seeing that it was almost time, he reached out and patted on Shen Anguo’s Dantian. With a bang, Shen Anguo, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up. He didn’t feel stiff at all.

Seeing that the old man suddenly sat up, the others were shocked and took several steps back.

Shen Tiejun was overjoyed and immediately rushed forward to support the old man. With tears streaming down his face, he said, “Dad, you finally woke up.”

“What... how is this possible?”

Zhuo Bufan’s eyes popped with great astonishment. 10 minutes ago, he had just been a vegetable lying in bed, but he suddenly sat up. This was really shocking.

Although Shen Anguo had been lying in bed, his brain, as Qin Haodong had said, had not suffered any damage, so he recognized everything around him clearly.

He turned and his legs touched the ground. Standing up from the bed, he grabbed Qin Haodong’s arm and said excitedly, “Thank you very much, little magic doctor. Without you, the rest of my life would have been completely ruined.”

Then he turned his head and glared at Zhuo Bufan. “You quack, you know how much I’ve suffered these years? I can’t even move, which is even more painful than death. You wanted me to live for more than 3-5 years! What are you thinking?”

When he heard the treatment plan of Zhuo Bufan, he was very angry, but it was a pity that he could not move, or he would have jumped up and killed this guy.

“What...”

At this point, Zhuo Bufan couldn’t believe what was happening in front of him. If he hadn’t just checked the materials, he would have thought that the old man was an actor hired by Qin Haodong. How could a vegetable wake up so soon?

Qin Haodong looked at him and said, “Doctor Zhuo, if you have nothing to say, please take off your clothes now.”
