Great Medical System in a Veterinarian-Chapter 215 - 124: Royal Physician, Palace Orthopedics, Shocking Livestream, and the Mysterious Headache!
"Thank you, Boss Chun, for your trust. We’re doing a live broadcast over here. Do you mind being on camera? If not, we’ll just focus on filming the cow."
Zhang Lingchuan shook hands with Boss Meng Chun while politely inquiring.
"Dr. Xiao Zhang! For us ordinary folks, how many get filmed by TV? Feel free to shoot!!"
Boss Meng Chun waved his hand carelessly.
"Yes, yes, feel free to shoot!!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Birthing a calf.
There definitely needs to be someone to help. The five or six guys present were the helpers.
But they didn’t have much experience, didn’t know how to exert force, and accidentally broke the calf’s leg.
"Alright, friends, we’ve got quite a few tasks today. We are now in Baisha Village, the second settlement of Meng Family Village. According to our info, they broke the calf’s leg while delivering it. Next, Boss Chun, please take us to see the calf."
Upon hearing the approval to film, Zhang Lingchuan immediately introduced it to the audience in front of the camera.
"Finally on site."
"A long five minutes."
"If the calf is fractured, it must be difficult to handle, right?"
"Indeed, it’s quite tricky, just like a newborn’s fracture."
Because the calf had just been born.
It’s still quite delicate.
Handling it is a bit troublesome.
"Dr. Xiao Zhang, the calf hasn’t come out yet."
Boss Meng Chun had a slightly bitter expression at this moment.
"Hasn’t come out??"
Zhang Lingchuan frowned.
"Yes, the cow had difficulty in labor. We tried to help pull it out, but who would have thought we accidentally pulled its leg off."
Boss Meng Chun spread his hands helplessly.
"I see, when did this happen, Boss Chun?"
Zhang Lingchuan now understood the situation.
To put it simply, during the cow’s delivery, they assisted, but didn’t handle the force well, resulting in a fractured calf, and were too afraid to pull again, so they called them over swiftly.
"I called you less than ten minutes ago, about seven or eight minutes."
Boss Meng Chun answered truthfully.
"Alright, I’ll take a look. Everyone, to avoid infecting the cow, be sure to wear sterile gloves before reaching into the cow’s rear."
Zhang Lingchuan approached the delivering cow.
He put on gloves and, in front of the viewers, reached into the cow’s rear.
This is pretty much routine for a veterinarian.
"How is it, Dr. Xiao Zhang?"
Seeing Zhang Lingchuan reaching in, Boss Meng Chun asked.
"No big deal, it’s a minor fracture, not a big issue. Boss Chun, find a rope, we’ll try to pull the calf out."
Zhang Lingchuan reached in to adjust, only to find he couldn’t move it at all.
This is a common challenge veterinarians face during cattle births.
If the breeding bull was too large, the calf could also be too large, causing delivery complications.
At such times, it’s necessary to coordinate and pull the calf out, or else there’s a risk of a fatal delivery.
"Alright, alright."
Boss Meng Chun quickly went to find a rope and soon came back with a hemp rope.
"Everyone, I need to explain something, and Boss Chun, you should also remember that during delivery, you absolutely can’t use ropes like this. Just think, what happens when a dirty rope like this goes into a cow’s belly? Infection is inevitable, so we need to clean it. Fetch some water."
Upon seeing the rope, Zhang Lingchuan was momentarily stunned.
Though cows have a strong immune system, a dirty, muddy rope is intolerable.
This also provided a chance to educate Boss Chun, the cattle breeder.
"Honestly, thank goodness it’s a cow. If it were a person using such a rope internally, they’d probably be done for."
"Seeing this cattle breeder is a newbie wanting to deliver a calf himself, accidentally pulling its leg off."
"Previously, the mortality rate of calving was high because of hygiene negligence. Using something like this for delivery is a sure infection risk, and without timely treatment, postnatal weakness can lead to death, which explains the emphasis on sterile procedures now."
"True, sterile procedures greatly increase animal survival chances."
The viewers commented in quick succession.
Especially veterinarians.
Wholeheartedly agreeing.
"Alright, alright."
Soon, the rope was being washed.
The camera captured shots.
There was indeed a lot of sand and dirt inside.
"Alright, everyone join me, let’s pull the calf out."
After the rope was washed.
Zhang Lingchuan tied it around the calf.
Under his command, everyone started the task of pulling the calf. Even Meng Mountain and Wang Liwei joined in.
But after fracturing the calf, apart from Wang Liwei and Meng Mountain, everyone was very cautious.
"Uncles, did you eat? Pull harder! Pull!!"
Zhang Lingchuan seemed to read everyone’s minds and jokingly said to the villagers who had helped earlier.
"Let’s do it!!"
With that, everyone pulled with all their might.
Just in a moment, half of the calf was pulled out.
Zhang Lingchuan quickly cleared off the mucus, while cattle breeder Boss Chun and pig breeder Boss Meng grabbed a cloth.
As the delivery was conducted standing up.
It could easily fall to the ground, causing secondary injury, so it needed to be caught.
"With a splash."
The calf was pulled out.
"Dr. Zhang, how’s the calf? It won’t be lame, right?"
As the calf had just emerged, it appeared pale, and the cow’s owner anxiously inquired.
"No worries, it’s not a big problem. Bind it properly and recuperate for three months. Next time, choose a bull of a similar size for breeding."
Zhang Lingchuan applied special splints to the calf’s leg.
This was a definite fracture, unlike a dislocation.
Mere manipulation wouldn’t suffice, it required stabilization.
"Ah... Learned something new, raising cattle is a constant learning process. Dr. Zhang, I’ll definitely follow you on Douyin in the future."
Boss Meng Chun sighed and said.
"Hahaha, then thank you, Boss Chun."
Zhang Lingchuan chuckled.
"Wow! It’s really standing up!!"
Not long after stabilizing. The calf began struggling to stand.
Though its broken leg seemed unfamiliar, not well-controlled.
It still persevered to rise.
Everyone present couldn’t help but marvel.
"That’s nothing! Earlier at our place, Dr. Xiao Zhang realigned a kid’s broken leg without them even crying, now that’s truly impressive!"
Upon seeing this, Meng Mountain commented dismissively, as if everyone was overreacting.
"Ah? So impressive!?"
Shocked!
Everyone at the scene was amazed!
"Of course! Studying under the Imperial Physician! Is that a joke?"
Meng Mountain nodded proudly.
"Hiss—"
Instantly, everyone’s gaze towards Zhang Lingchuan changed.
"Stop! Stop! Boss Meng, let’s not talk about this anymore, it was a misunderstanding!"
Zhang Lingchuan was at a loss.
He had just about escaped this, and now it was being spread again!!
"Oh Dr. Zhang, I’ve heard of your reputation, my daughter sometimes has headaches, but all exams can’t find anything. Even a CT scan of her brain was useless, so please, look at her mysterious illness!"
In a gesture like a martial arts hero, Meng Mountain pleaded.
"Whoa??"
Suddenly, a shocked reaction came from within the room.
It was a young girl, wearing pajamas, lying on the bed watching the live stream.
It was summer vacation.
Lying in bed to rest during the holidays seems reasonable, right?
Meng Yuanyuan didn’t expect.
To be relaxing in bed.
And a burden to fall from the sky.
Her dad was requesting Dr. Zhang to treat her.
But her headache was indeed strange.
Fine one moment.
Then suddenly painful again.
The hospital couldn’t determine the cause either, and Chinese medicine hadn’t helped, so perhaps Dr. Zhang could check this mystery ailment of hers!
A thunderstruck sensation filled Zhang Lingchuan as he faced the requesting cattle breeder. What day is today, why so much happening all at once??
And why was he being talked up again for something the hospital’s X-ray couldn’t fix, was there any chance he could with his "X-ray Eye"?
