Chapter 29: Chu Tian's Approach

  In a room of the Four Seas Restaurant, a man in his forties and two boys aged seventeen or eighteen were talking. "Second Uncle, are we just going to give up like this?" asked the young man whose arm had been dislocated by Tang Xiao Feng that afternoon, with a sling around his neck.

  "Dummy, you're still too tender. We can't just let it go like this, we have to endure for a while, the outside is too tight now, even the instructors from the South Gate have been rounded up, we can't move for now."

  "He's just familiar with a few cops, what's the big deal? We have connections too." The young man said disdainfully. "Hmph, I've figured out his bottom line, those few cops we're raising are useless, and the tens of thousands of yuan I give to the police station every year is like feeding dogs." Er Leng said with a displeased face.

  "Second Uncle is indeed wise, but I just can't swallow this breath, my little brothers all saw me in such a sorry state..." The young lad rubbed his injured arm and begged Second Uncle.

  "Slap." Er Leng finally couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped him in the face, pointing at him and scolding: "You still have the nerve to tell me these things, if it wasn't for you causing trouble, would I have suffered such a huge loss?"

  Another slap in the face, and he continued to scold: "Wang Hao, you little brat, do you have a brain? What's going on now? You still want to think about that trivial matter of yours. That's what you get for asking for it!"

  From young to old, he had always doted on and taken care of his second uncle. Today, he suddenly hit himself, and Wang Hao was so frightened that he stood still on the spot. However, he quickly came to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward, saying: "Second Uncle, I... was wrong." Er Leng looked at Wang Hao with a glance, and suddenly burst out laughing wildly...

  "What do you think about the South Gate Police Station's handling of the matter?" Tang Aiguo asked while watching TV on the sofa. "Typical police-gang collusion, I didn't find those thugs at the South Gate station when I arrived at the scene, what do you want to do, Dad?"

  "This matter you don't need to ask about, just turn around and stare at those few troublemaking kids, that's all. If there's a chance, catch them." He told Tang Zhengming his way of handling things, "I've already contacted your bureau chief, official matters, you don't need to ask again." Tang Aiguo muttered to himself, "Want the life of my Tang family? See if they have that kind of ability."

  Tang Xiaofeng came to the emergency department of the hospital to see if Chu Tian, an elderly man who was knocked down by a car, had woken up.

  Then go see Director Zhu. "Although the perpetrator has been caught, he only paid the money and didn't come to see the old man. However, the old man has woken up, but the blood clot in his brain hasn't dissolved and is still blocking the cerebral blood vessels. From a medical perspective, it's hard to understand how this happened. Go take a look at him anyway." Director Zhu told Tang Xiaofeng about the current situation of the old man.

  Arriving at the EICU, I saw Nurse Wang Hui chatting with Chu Tianjin. When she saw Tang Xiaofeng coming in, she stood up and said to the old man: "This is the young man who sent you to the hospital." Then she nodded to Tang Xiaofeng and left.

  "Come and sit down," Chu Tian said, pointing to the chair beside the bed. Tang Xiao Feng went over and sat down, looking at the old man's face which was not very good but seemed to be in high spirits.

  "Grandpa, what do you think?" Chu Tianjin smiled and pulled him close, his hand casually resting on his wrist. "Not bad! Kid, I heard the head nurse say that it was you who sent me to the hospital. Aren't you afraid that I'll blackmail you when I wake up? It's not easy being a good person these days." "Blackmail me? A doctor's duty is to save lives and treat injuries. When dealing with anything, one only needs to have a compassionate heart, as the saying goes 'a heart not like Buddha's cannot be a doctor.'" Tang Xiaofeng said with a smile.

  "Good, well said. A pair of hands that can bring people back from the dead, a heart that can bring peace to the world." Chu Tianjin nodded slightly, and suddenly changed the subject, "Child, what do you think about traditional Chinese medicine?" "This... why are you asking this, sir?" Tang Xiaofeng was taken aback by the sudden question. He then realized that Chu Tianjin was taking his pulse, using a technique he had never seen before - pressing his thumb against his ring finger, and using his index, middle, and little fingers to take his pulse.

  "Haha, what's wrong? Don't be shy about telling an old man like me. What can't be said?" Chu Tianjin's words carried a bold and straightforward tone. Tang Xiaofeng came back to his senses and smiled: "Old sir, there's nothing that can't be said. Traditional Chinese medicine theory comes from the summary of medical experience and China's ancient yin-yang five elements thought. Its content includes essence energy study, yin-yang five elements study, qi-blood-body fluid, zangxiang, meridians, physical constitution, disease causes, onset, pathological mechanism, treatment principles, and health preservation. As early as over 2,000 years ago, the traditional Chinese medicine work 'Huangdi Neijing' was already born, laying the foundation for Chinese medicine. However, by today, too much has been lost. Some toxic medicines and prescriptions are not dared to be used by those who are not highly skilled and bold. A small number of brave doctors can't get corresponding guarantees, and once problems arise, it's hard to protect themselves. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine gradually disappeared."

  Chu Tian suddenly withdrew his smile and said, "Child, what is your attitude towards traditional Chinese medicine?"

  "Huh? Me? So many things have been passed down from ancient times, there must be a reason for it. Especially when it comes to medical skills, how much of our ancestors' blood and sweat has been poured into passing them down as precious treasures? What attitude or opinion can I hold? As long as I have a heart that wants to help the world with my medical skills, that's enough."

  Chu Tianjin suddenly stopped smiling: "Kid, you're not in good health, at this rate, you'll be worried about your life before you're sixty."

  "I'm fine, I can eat and sleep, I don't feel anything wrong," Tang Xiaofeng was a bit stunned by Chu Tianjin's sudden words.

  Chu Tianjin shook his head: "By the time you really notice something is wrong, it will be too late."

  "How did you know, sir?" "You have a dark aura on your face, indicating that your foundation is not solid and you've over-consumed. Pinching his wrist, 'And your pulse is unstable, but not obvious, indicating that you will have worries in the future.'"

  "Haha, you're still a traditional Chinese doctor, or are you fortune-telling?" At first, Tang Xiao Feng took the old man's words as a joke, but after listening to his explanation, he didn't feel like laughing anymore. "The foundation is not solid." Tang Xiao Feng muttered to himself, and couldn't help but feel a chill rise up in his heart.

  "Even if others don't believe it, I wouldn't say much to them. But you're different, so I'll tell you about it. Whether you believe it or not, just take it as a story."
