Chapter 689 - You’re His Limit
Chapter 689: You’re His Limit
Mu Tao instantly made his position clear.
He was not a professor or junior doctor, but a junior doctor who learned his skills from his master.
When Zheng Ren folded his arms and looked at the X-ray, Mu Tao did not criticize him in his heart. There was really nothing to see on a pelvis X-ray. He must be putting on an act to overwhelm him.
Mu Tao knew in his heart that the other party could see more information from the X-ray but he could not. It was a matter of skill. Moreover, based on Mu Tao’s understanding of Zheng Ren, this person would not do such a thing. If it was Zheng Ren’s assistant, he might have done it.
After carefully disinfecting, Mu Tao said in a low voice, “Chief Zheng, you can go and wash your hands.”
Just like when he had just become Wu Haishi’s student, he did everything very cautious and carefully.
Zheng Ren was currently struggling mentally.
From the small amount of information on the X-ray film, he could sketch out the 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction in his mind. It was like the world was being opened up to him.
Zheng Ren braved the aftershocks of surgery and broke through the technical barriers. He had a new understanding of many technical things.
However, he knew that he could not test this out now. He absolutely could not use his limited energy on this.
But...the unknown blue sea was really very attractive...
After hearing Mu Tao’s words, Zheng Ren calmed his heart and breathing. The pain in his chest became less pronounced. He slowly turned around and said with a soft laugh, “Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Mu.”
As he spoke, Zheng Ren walked over to brush his hands.
Mu Tao started to lay out the sheet. After Zheng Ren went up on stage, he washed his hands again. Then, he wore a sterile robe and stood beside Zheng Ren.
The femoral artery cannulation had already ended. When he stood up, the screen had already lit up.
The guide wire catheter was in position. This speed was really fast! Mu Tao sighed and then began to observe the shape of the blood vessels.
With just a glance, Mu Tao had an idea.
He did not continue to look at the screen. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at Zheng Ren’s right hand.
Zheng Ren habitually crossed his left and right hands. Mu Tao had nothing to do when he went on stage.
His right wrist shook slightly. Three movements? Why couldn’t he see it? Mu Tao was a little puzzled.
At the same time, he looked up at the screen. The guide wire had already entered the blood vessels.
He could not understand it even at such a close distance?
Although he knew there was a gap, Mu Tao, who was full of confidence and prepared to overcome his teacher, was stunned.
If he could not even understand it, how could he move past him?
“Imaging,” Zheng Ren said in a low voice after the selection.
Mu Tao was still in a daze. He recalled Zheng Ren’s actions but did not hear what Zheng Ren was saying at all. He also did not notice that after the superselection ended, he had to take medicine to embolize the vessels himself as his assistant.
Zheng Ren was a little unhappy but his mind was racing. He immediately understood why Mu Tao was in a daze.
“Teacher Mu, it’s time to take the medicine!” Zheng Ren used his arm to touch Mu Tao.
“Oh, oh.” Mu Tao woke up. He did not have time to study and immediately did as he was told.
As a scholar, his research and techniques were engraved in his bones. Mu Tao was also a little embarrassed.
This was the frontline. He could not waste time. He repeated it to himself several times.
When Zheng Ren was selecting the second branch of the internal iliac artery, he was not as silent as before. Instead, he said, “Teacher Mu, I will speak as I do it. You just need to listen.”
Mu Tao did not know what had happened and remained silent.
“The blood vessel branches into a 65-degree and moves diagonally upward. During this time, the wrist should be slightly pressed downwards to form a 13.5-degree angle. After the front end of the micro-guide wire enters, it should be raised rapidly while the micro-guide wire enters with the left hand,” Zheng Ren said briefly. The micro-guide wire had already entered the branch of the internal iliac artery.
There were only two movements. It seemed that the difficulty of this blood vessel was not high. But how could one be as accurate at 13.5 degrees?
Mu Tao said that he was going to be an assistant but had unknowingly become a close-up spectator.
He only had one task, which was to administer medicine and embolism.
Zheng Ren only spoke 57 words. Mu Tao pondered over it repeatedly and gradually came to a different conclusion.
Zheng Ren’s skill level was already very high and he did not deliberately hide it. What he said was the most crucial information.
There was no need to explain too much. Those who could understand these fifty-seven words would naturally understand.
If he could not understand it for the time being, he would have to perform countless surgeries. When his skill level increased, he would also understand what Zheng Ren was saying.
The blockage of the internal iliac artery branches was completed and the patient’s bleeding symptoms were alleviated. Zheng Ren began to roar again, asking Chief Jiang to send the next patient up.
Mu Tao helped carry the patient off the operating theater and brought another patient up. This time, he quietly left the operating theater, thinking about Zheng Ren’s words.
He even forgot to say thank you to Zheng Ren.
A person blocked his way. Mu Tao raised his head and saw a handsome face appear in front of him.
“Oh, Professor Mu, what are you doing here?” Su Yun opened his mouth and spoke sarcastically. It was a trademark tone that could not be changed for the rest of his life.
“Hello, Doctor Su,” Mu Tao replied in a gentle and elegant manner.
Su Yun opened his mouth and was about to say a few words to Mu Tao when Zheng Ren’s voice suddenly sounded. “Su Yun, hurry up and go sterilize everything when you wake up!”
Uh... This guy...
Su Yun had slept for more than an hour so he was much more energetic. He rushed into the operating theater and Mu Tao had no choice but to dodge to the side.
The gap between a monster and his assistant was really big, Mu Tao sighed in his heart.
He did not mind, nor did he stop. His mind kept replaying Zheng Ren’s words, trying to grasp them even more each time.
Go on stage, perform the surgery, and improve himself through practical application!
“Boss, what is Mu Tao doing here?” Su Yun asked while disinfecting.
“He said he wanted to help. I guess he wants to see my surgery up close,” Zheng Ren replied indifferently.
“When people have knowledge, they try to hide it, afraid that other people might covet it. But you, are you out of your mind?” Su Yun nagged as he disinfected.
“It was just a few words. Even if I don’t say it, he’ll understand sooner or later.” Zheng Ren was still in his usual posture, looking at the radiographic films as he said, “And now, if his surgical skills can be improved, there will be a lot of patients who will benefit from it. There are too many surgeries. Even if I stay here, I won’t be able to finish them all.”
F*ck! Su Yun cursed in his heart.
How could Zheng Ren have the nerve to say such a confident and even narcissistic thing?
He was still as calm, logical, and irrefutable as ever.
“You’re right. Everything you said is right!” Su Yun said angrily.
“It’s fine.” Zheng Ren looked at the radiographic films and said, “No matter how much he improves, his limit is probably at your current level.”
Oh? Was he complimenting him? At first, it sounded like that, but Su Yun repeated it in his mind over and over again. The more he thought about it, the more it did not sound like that.
What he said was that he could only reach his current level. Mu Tao was not a threat to him at all...
