I Can Talk to the Internal Organs-Chapter 304 - 270: Immortalized in History?

"How did this kid manage to do that?"

Huang Fusheng was utterly perplexed.

He had seen the prescription Lu Jiu devised for treating lung cancer back then.

It was indeed rather ingenious.

Even though it was different from his own prescription, the effects they could achieve were roughly the same.

The difference lay in the patients' differing constitutions they diagnosed.

However, no matter the case, reducing a tumor within half a year is not something an ordinary person can accomplish.

"Could it be acupuncture?" Shen Congwei murmured.

Shen Congwei previously did not know how incredible Lu Jiu's acupuncture skills were. It was only after an introduction by Huang Fusheng and witnessing Lu Jiu perform acupuncture a few times that he recognized Lu Jiu's level.

Even though he was adept in acupuncture himself, he had to admit that Lu Jiu's acupuncture skills were no less than his own.

He was fortunate to know the special acupuncture technique called the Navel Needle; otherwise, he might not necessarily surpass Lu Jiu.

But whether acupuncture can actually eliminate tumors, Shen Congwei was also unsure.

Because he hadn't tried it before.

"It's very possible. This kid's acupuncture level is extremely high. However, apart from that, it should also have a lot to do with the patient. You and I both know the self-healing ability of the five viscera is strong. If the patient changes their lifestyle and emotions, the body's recovery speed can be very fast. Once their physical condition is enhanced by acupuncture and traditional medicine, and the Yang Qi is adequate, the cold and damp pathogenic factors of a tumor can indeed decrease. I remember Mr. Li once completely cured a patient with late-stage liver cancer using methods to elevate Yang Qi, but it took six or seven years." Huang Fusheng said.

The Mr. Li that Huang Fusheng mentioned was Li Huo.

This man saved countless critically ill patients throughout his life, and compared to cancer, he treated more patients on the brink of death with heart or kidney failure. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

One could say that chronic deadly illnesses like cancer were not difficult to treat for Mr. Li.

Of course, there are very few TCM practitioners like Mr. Li in the entire country.

Moreover, the number of cancer patients now is already quite staggering.

Put it this way, the rate of increase in diseases has far surpassed the rate at which doctors are being trained.

At the current social pace, medical resources will perpetually be in a state of shortage.

"Haha, once this kid becomes the hospital's golden signboard and combines with the existing hospital model to become Jianghan First Hospital, do you think our pilot project will compel the whole country to follow suit?" Shen Congwei said.

In this era of youthful illnesses and excessively industrialized diets, the urgent issue at hand is undoubtedly health.

Initially, Huang Fusheng and Shen Congwei hoped to improve the quality of medicinal herbs and subsequently train more TCM practitioners. This might solve the urgent crisis.

But taking the increase in the number of doctors as a strategic starting point was evidently putting the cart before the horse.

It was the emergence of this new regulation by Lu Jiu that completely changed their outlook.

Instead of developing more doctors to treat diseases, why not leverage the advantages of TCM to prevent more people from getting sick in the first place?

Of course, constructing a hospital with this as a starting point is sure to invite much criticism.

For instance, without patients, how does your hospital survive?

However, now, the model envisaged by Lu Jiu solves this issue thoroughly.

Without patients, the hospital can still survive.

This transforms the hospital's model from maintaining patients' diseases to prevent deterioration into maintaining people's health.

Although this model can't extract hundreds of thousands or millions from one individual, it's all about small profits and quick returns.

As long as you have minor issues, come here to resolve them. Not saying it will be cured immediately, but at least it won't worsen into a major illness.

Thus, spending a bit now and then to maintain health becomes mutually beneficial for both the hospital and individuals, and it can even reduce medical disputes.

Of course, for this model to go mainstream, there has to be a signboard.

This signboard is that your hospital is not only capable of treating minor illnesses but can also handle major ones with ease.

Especially cancer.

This disease holds a significant relevance among the public.

So much so that whenever someone claims online that a doctor can cure cancer, they would be heavily criticized.

After all, cancer, being a terminal illness, has become a deeply ingrained, seemingly unchangeable thought in many people's minds.

If Lu Jiu can break out with this cancer-destroying prowess, the hospital's reputation will spread extensively.

Thus, allowing more people to witness the operational model of Lu Jiu TCM Hospital.

Gradually, as the influence expands, it can naturally attract the attention of higher-ups.

Since Jianghan is the pilot city this time, all these factors combined could be enough to force many TCM hospitals nationwide to upgrade and transform.

By then, Lu Jiu TCM Hospital will become a benchmark for TCM hospitals nationwide.

"It depends on whether this kid has absolute confidence in treating cancer. If so, it indeed would be worthwhile for him to evolve in this field!" Huang Fusheng said.

Cancer is a long-term accumulative chronic illness, and the treatment process is also very lengthy.

This process tests both the doctor and the patient.

Can the doctor find a breakthrough in cancer treatment? Can the patient cooperate with the doctor's prescriptions and follow them strictly?

These details will determine the effectiveness.

Therefore, to become a consistent victor in the field of cancer, you not only need to perfect your medical logic but also keenly grasp the patient's psychology, compelling them to adhere to medical advice and abandon any bad habits.

Once you achieve this, you're not far from being a Top Doctor.

A Top Doctor in your twenties?

Huang Fusheng couldn't even imagine.

"Almost forgot, even if Lu Jiu cures cancer and spreads the word, it might not create much of a stir. Remember Mr. Li Sr. saved over two thousand heart failure patients back then, yet he was only famous in the medical field. Except for us, few outsiders knew him," Shen Congwei said.

Huang Fusheng shook his head, "Times have changed. Back then, the internet wasn't developed. Twenty years ago, when epidemics hit, didn't people know it was Chinese medicine that cured most of the severe cases? But in these three years, look at what Chinese medicine has done, many people have witnessed it. As long as Lu Jiu has genuine skills, no one can suppress him!"

That's right!

In today's age of the internet.

Every phone is a pair of eyes.

Whew~

Finished!

Lu Jiu completed acupuncture for Rao He.

This time, it lasted longer.

On one hand, Rao He had more Qi and blood, and on the other, the Five Viscera were stronger.

Lu Jiu felt today's treatment was equivalent to five or six previous sessions.

At this rate, maybe in eleven or twelve years, the Lung Mass could be completely cleared.

Of course, as time goes by, the speed of clearing won't always be fast, because as Rao He ages, the Five Viscera might begin to degenerate.

So, eleven or twelve years is just an approximate number.

The actual time might be longer.

Overall, as long as the treatment approach is correct and Lu Jiu's medical skill improves a bit, then this time can certainly be shortened further.

"Why are you both standing here all this time?"

After finishing acupuncture, Lu Jiu asked Shi Zixiong to take his mother away and came over to Huang Fusheng and Shen Congwei.

"Your teacher wants to talk to you about something; I'll cover your shift first," Shen Congwei said with a smile.

After saying that, he took Lu Jiu's place in front of the patient and started taking their pulse.

Seeing how competent Lu Jiu was, everyone figured these two old guys wouldn't be ordinary either, so they didn't question much, and accepted Shen Congwei's diagnosis honestly.

Huang Fusheng pulled Lu Jiu aside.

"How many cancer patients like this have you seen?"

Seeing Huang Fusheng asking him, Lu Jiu replied, "Three - one with advanced breast cancer, one with advanced lung cancer, and one with advanced liver cancer. During this time, quite a few patients in this situation have come, but their conditions are not very ideal. Most have undergone surgery and chemotherapy, waited too long, and after using two or three doses of medicine with no effect, I advised them to seek someone else."

Three, huh, that's quite a few!

Huang Fusheng understood that once diagnosed with cancer, unless the hospital doctors completely give up, patients don't usually go to a TCM practitioner.

At that stage, they can only rely on their luck.

"How confident are you with this disease?" Huang Fusheng asked.

Lu Jiu scratched his head, "I wouldn't say confident, but as long as the Gastric Qi isn't depleted, there's still a lot of hope."

Exactly, as long as the patient can still intake nutrients, and the body can transform them into Qi and blood, Lu Jiu can find ways to maintain the patient's life, and subsequently clear the cold and damp pathogenic factors by directing the Five Viscera.

Even if he can't clear it entirely, he can reduce the patient's burden, and greatly increase the chances of surviving with cancer.

Oh?

As long as the Gastric Qi isn't depleted, it's okay?

Huang Fusheng noticed the confidence in Lu Jiu.

This means, as long as the patient's life hasn't reached its endpoint, Lu Jiu can currently stabilize their condition.

Thus, as long as the patient hasn't delayed extremely long, Lu Jiu can intervene.

"Not bad, looks like spreading our hospital's name is just a matter of time, hahaha," Huang Fusheng laughed.

Lu Jiu asked in confusion, "What name?"

Huang Fusheng laughed, "Our hospital is essentially a pilot hospital in the end, it must make some achievements. What you're doing now is quite novel, and the response seems pretty good, but it lacks a core gimmick."

"When you're publicly recognized in cancer treatment, and these methods are further supported, in time, our hospital might become a model for TCM hospitals nationwide; famous TCM practitioners from across the country might come here to learn."

"As the head of the hospital, you might leave a significant mark in the history of the new healthcare reform!"

Uh...

Leaving a mark in history?

That dramatic?

But I must say, this goal is quite tempting!

If the hospital can truly be made a model for nationwide learning, it would bring glory to the ancestors.

Unfortunately, Jianghan Region's clan culture isn't strong anymore; if it were in Dongguang, he might be listed on the first page of the family tree.
