Urban Super Medical Saint

"Rest assured, this time is different from the last. Last time, Grandma Liu's five organs were deficient, and her spirit was fading; she was nearing the end of her natural lifespan. Trying to extend her life was an act against nature, and indeed, one misstep could have caused me harm. Johnson is only in his forties or fifties, with plenty of vital energy, but he has fallen ill. As long as it's an illness, appropriate treatment can cure it. The only incurable diseases are those for which our medical skills have not yet reached the required level. For Johnson's lung cancer, as long as I find the right way to eradicate his cancer cells, he will naturally recover. However, reaching the end of one's natural lifespan is a true law of nature, which is very difficult for humanity to reverse, and any change we can effect is extremely limited and minor. It's like the changes in nature that humans can bring about, such as artificial rain, or using air conditioning and greenhouses to create small environments that are different from the larger one, but all these changes are very limited," Ge Dongxu explained in detail, knowing that Tang Yiyuan was worried about him.

"If that's the case, then I'm relieved. I'll arrange for a special medical room," Tang Yiyuan let out a big sigh of relief, contentedly.

Ge Dongxu smiled, while Zhang Xiuwen and the others seemed to realize something from the conversation between the two, their eyes involuntarily drifted towards a few white hairs mixed in with the hair on the left side of Ge Dongxu's head, revealing deep awe in their eyes.

Defying nature and changing fate! No wonder the teacher had looked so much older and haggard these days!

Johnson and Karl were somewhat baffled by what they heard, but they still sensed the change in the looks and demeanor of everyone in the clinic, and they also had a vague inkling of what was going on, looking at Ge Dongxu with involuntary awe in their eyes.

Tang Yiyuan went out of the clinic first and had the medical room arranged.

"Before you treat me, do I need to sign any agreement or contract?" Johnson asked upon entering the medical room.

"Mr. Johnson, are you worried about my medical skills?" Ge Dongxu asked with a smile.

"With any treatment, there's always a chance of success. My illness is terminal, and that a top doctor like you is willing to treat me, whether successful or not, fills me with gratitude. But to tell you the truth, I am the Chief Oncologist at Caroline Royal Medical College in Reel Country. In case something unexpected happens during the treatment, I'm worried it might cause you unnecessary trouble. Therefore, I hope to sign a disclaimer of liability before you treat me," Johnson said earnestly.

"Rest assured, Mr. Johnson, even if I can't cure your disease, there won't be any danger. I am one hundred percent sure of that. Of course, if you insist, I can have someone bring you a piece of paper, and you can just write a brief sentence on it; there's no need for anything detailed," Ge Dongxu replied.

After some thought, Johnson still asked for a pen and paper, wrote a very simple disclaimer on it, then signed it, and Ge Dongxu followed by signing as well.

"There is another issue, the matter of remuneration," Johnson asked after signing.

"Mr. Johnson, you already paid your remuneration by the side of Mingyue Lake," Ge Dongxu replied with a smile.

"Thank you, Dr. Ge, whether or not I get better, I will definitely commit to changing the medical community's prejudices against Chinese medicine when I return," Johnson replied.

"It seems, Mr. Johnson still lacks confidence in me," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.

"Please forgive me, cancer that has already spread is, to me, a terminal illness. As a top oncology expert, I still can't fully believe that you can eradicate my cancer cells," Johnson replied sincerely.

"Although I do not like others doubting my medical skills, I appreciate your honesty!" Ge Dongxu said with a smile, then continued, "Now we can begin treatment. Please take off your clothes and pants, you can just keep your shorts on, and then lie down on the bed."

Johnson did as he was told, took off his clothes and pants, then lay down on the bed.

"When I examined Mr. Johnson just now, I found that part of his cancer cells have already metastasized to the bones and kidneys. This situation, for me, is not very complicated to eradicate. I can use a special method to precisely remove the cancer cells, but it's something you are not capable of. However, in the future, you might try combining Western surgical removal with Chinese acupuncture and herbal medicine. Use surgery to remove most of the cancer cells, Chinese acupuncture to cut off the blood Qi supply to the remaining cells, and then Chinese herbal medicine to thoroughly kill the residual cancer cells," Ge Dongxu explained while skillfully inserting needles into Johnson's meridian acupoints.

"Each of the Twelve Regular Meridians governs an organ in the human body, with the blood Qi circulating through the twelve meridians according to the twelve Chinese Hours. Therefore, if an organ has a problem, the True Qi flow in the corresponding meridian to certain acupoints of the organ will become impaired. When we perform acupuncture, we often stimulate to clear these blockages. But likewise, since cancer cells are not good cells, if we want to kill them, we can also block part of the meridians for certain organs. Still, this is a method of killing a thousand enemies at the cost of eight hundred of our own, so if surgery is used to remove most of the cancer cells and then this method is used to kill the surviving cells, followed by Chinese medicine, the damage to oneself will not be too great," Ge Dongxu continued to explain his approach in detail.

"Look, the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian governs the lungs. Even if I want to precisely remove the cancer cells in the lungs, I need to go through this meridian. In the future, when you treat lung cancer, you can do more research on these positions of this meridian," said Ge Dongxu, while pointing to several locations on the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian where he inserted needles.

Tang Yiyuan and others watched and listened to Ge Dongxu's explanations, feeling an epiphany, their eyes shining bright with contemplation.

As for Karl and Johnson who were foreigners and did not understand Chinese medicine, even Johnson, the chief oncology expert at the Caroline Royal Medical College, had very limited knowledge of Chinese medicine. Therefore, they could not understand what Ge Dongxu was saying. However, when Ge Dongxu mentioned the combination of Western and Chinese medicine, Johnson listened thoughtfully.

After explaining and analyzing while performing acupuncture for a while, Ge Dongxu then closed his mouth, a look of gravity spread across his face.

Upon seeing this, Tang Yiyuan and the others all had a solemn look on their faces, and even their breathing became careful, as if the medical room had become a sacred place.

Indeed, in the hearts of Tang Yiyuan and the others, it was a sacred place at this moment.

Because here, cancer, known to mankind as an incurable disease, was about to be healed, and they were all witnesses.

Ge Dongxu's fingers began to move across the needles, strands of True Qi flowed from his fingers along the needles into Johnson's body, then precisely targeted Johnson's cancer cells.
