Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Dude, It’s Noon—Why Are Your Words So Creepy?
What the heck?
Did I just activate a system task?
Previously, these things never popped up. Maybe it’s because of a system upgrade. Is this the free exploration content they hinted at?
But completing a hundred debridement and dressing change surgeries in ten days? This standard was definitely set for humans! I bet any doctors hearing this would exclaim how crazy it is!
Luckily, they bound it incorrectly; he’s a veterinarian!
Normally, animals aren’t like humans; they don’t have so many debridement and dressing needs. Getting enough for a hundred surgeries in ten days is out of the question.
Don’t be fooled by his busy days as a country vet; it’s just because Old Zhang is hospitalized, and two cattle farmers are in a hurry and keep pushing, so he seems very busy.
Under normal circumstances, forget ten days—Old Zhang couldn’t even do a hundred debridements in a year for animals.
But as a competent veterinarian, there are always ways.
He’s already thought of a way to glitch the system.
As for doing it on humans, it’s not that he doesn’t want to. It’s basically not feasible.
Just now, it was the boss’s wife covering for him; otherwise, attempting to participate in human debridement surgery would be dreaming.
After all, once they hear you’re a veterinarian, forget about human doctors giving you the stink eye—normal folks also have a sense of distrust, thinking how can a vet treat people?
Unless there are no doctors—then treating a dead horse as a live horse makes sense.
Speaking of which, the task reward left him scratching his head. The Special Stamina Potion could be understood as some stamina-boosting liquid.
But what on earth is the Super Acceleration Package and Reputation?
"Ji Da! 985, wow! Bro, you’re impressive! A prestigious university! So, while you’re working, you’re continuing postgraduate studies?"
When the village medic heard the 985 mention, his gloomy mood disappeared immediately.
After all, he was just a below-average student scoring nearly 500 on his college entrance exam and signed a designated village medic training agreement, attending the local trailing medical college.
So, it’s normal to not measure up to these academic geniuses.
Moreover, if he recalls correctly, clinical medicine is a top program at their school.
Not just in the 985 circle—even within the 211 tier, any school’s top program is an absolute asset for regional development.
So, he must have a lot of internship opportunities.
Definitely plenty of seasoned mentors guiding him.
So, he’s unmatched here.
It’s logical and reasonable, right?
"I haven’t worked full-time; when school starts, I’ll be in my third year of postgrad."
Never mind, I’ll go back and study the system properly later.
Now, with the village medic’s strong curiosity, it would be impolite to answer vaguely.
So he turned off the system notifications first.
"No full-time work, huh? But your debridement skills are really impressive. Did you start interning at the hospital in your third year?"
The village medic’s smile froze for a moment but quickly relaxed again.
Though he’s not a full-timer, he can intern.
The skills observed in his debridement work indicate he’s experienced, and experienced hands truly lessen pain.
Using the simplest example:
Like drawing blood for tests that everyone encounters.
A skilled and seasoned medical staff member causes nearly no pain, and it’s over in a flash.
But if a clumsy intern does it, they might puncture right through your vein.
Your arm feels swollen after, with a large bruise that looks terrifying!
However, even with reduced pain, it’s amazing how even kids can hold it in. Who knows how they train at those top medical schools? Do they have pain-reducing secrets unknown to our trailing medical school?
It’s said that major hospitals have experts, each with their special skills.
Perhaps there’s a specialist deeply studying painless debridement.
"Hahaha, what son-in-law! This is Vet Old Zhang’s son! Lingchuan, take off your mask and let everyone recognize you!!"
At this moment, Li Caihua was so amused that she even addressed Zhang Lingchuan affectionately.
"Hello, uncles and aunties, long time no see."
Zhang Lingchuan was about to explain to the village medic that he’s a veterinarian, but before he could respond, he saw the boss’s wife smiling and looking at him, so he first greeted everyone.
His father often visited every village and hamlet in Shili Town, and before he went to college, Zhang Lingchuan liked tagging along, so everyone knew Vet Old Zhang had a son.
Of course, as people grow up, many may not remember what he looks like anymore.
But he must maintain politeness.
"Ah? Old Zhang’s son!"
"Oh my! It’s really Old Zhang’s son! Look at this handsome young man, wow! He used to only reach my waist when he visited as a kid!!"
"I met him when he was still a young lad, but that was at least six or seven years ago, back when you first got into Northeast People’s University. No wonder your face seemed familiar."
It’s bustling.
One by one, people at the entrance to the village clinic exclaimed.
"So it’s Zheng Hai’s son, look how handsome he is! But didn’t you study veterinary medicine? How do you manage human wound care so well? And your technique is exceptional, it didn’t hurt at all!"
Zhao Liguo at this moment also had a surprised demeanor, scrutinizing Zhang Lingchuan.
They’re from a cattle-rearing family.
They frequently interacted with Zhang Zhenghai, so among the village folks, they know each other best.
However, Zhao Liguo distinctly remembered.
Zheng Hai’s son studied veterinary medicine.
How can he be so adept at handling human wounds?
"You’re a vet???"
Hearing this, the village medic’s eyes widened, staring at Zhang Lingchuan in disbelief!!
"Hahaha, yes, Lingchuan is a vet, just performing surgery on our cattle at home. Village medic guy, his skills are impressive, right? I didn’t mention it earlier because I worried you’d refuse to let a vet touch you!"
Li Caihua merrily turned to the village medic.
"Hey! Village, village medic!"
"Young man!!!"
"Quick, quick, support him, why did he suddenly stand unsteadily and faint!"
...
Suddenly, Li Caihua’s smile turned into surprise.
The scene became chaotic.
Because the village medic, after learning Zhang Lingchuan was a veterinarian, unexpectedly fainted without warning.
"Damn it! Dr. Zhang, you liar, didn’t you say you know nothing about treating humans?"
"Indeed, if the cameraman hadn’t caught the whole process, we’d really feel deceived! Hey, those who doubted animal doctors, are you starting to feel ashamed now? And haven’t you forgotten humans are also animals?!"
"Guys, have you noticed how terrifyingly suspicious this is? Previously, Dr. Zhang visited Sanshui Village—neighbors of a pregnant cattle owner with late-stage syphilis, half the village got tested. Now in Xia Po Village—a cattle farmer with a stroke, dad had a car accident, debridement and dressing for eight people, half the village in a flutter, and now even the village medic fainted."
"Whoa, bro, that’s creepy for noon talk!"
As it turns out, that scene was all captured on camera.
In an instant, viewers felt deceived, angrily flooding the comment section questioning, is this what you meant by not being able to treat people?
Of course, some found it spine-chilling.
