Chapter 730 - Fang Qiu Fainted from Fatigue!

Chapter 730 Fang Qiu Fainted from Fatigue!

Fang Qiu was still seeing patients in the hospital. Even though he had been doing it for two days and two nights, he still had no intention of stopping.

Time flew as he busied himself with his work.

Afternoon arrived in the blink of an eye. The physicians from other departments of the Chinese Medicine Hospital got off work again.

Because of Fang Qiu, there were no patients in these departments over the past two days. Occasionally, few would come to get the medicine instead of seeing doctors.

In this case, the doctors simply treated the two days as a holiday and went about their own business in the consulting rooms, such as raising flowers, playing games, and so on.

They even got off work together.

“Fang Qiu hasn’t stopped yet.”

“How tough he is! We’re simply no match for him.”

“Yeah, it’s great to be young. He’s so energetic.”

“I’ve decided to study the video in which Fang Qiu practices Qi when I have time in the future. Even if I can’t do it like him, at least I can preserve my health and be in good spirits.”

“Hey, do you think Fang Qiu will be there when we come to work tomorrow morning?”

As soon as this question was heard, everyone expressed their opinions.

“The hospital begins to register at six o’clock in the morning, and doctors officially see patients at eight o’clock. I guess Fang Qiu will have finished his work by the time we get here tomorrow. It’s the third day, after all, and he’ll have worked three whole days by the next morning.”

“To my knowledge, Fang Qiu has been seeing patients for 58 hours in a row up to now. With 14 hours to go, he’ll have worked three straight days.”

“That’s true, but there are still quite a lot of patients waiting in line, and there are still plenty of people queuing for registration. I guess it’ll take him more than three days to see all the patients if he can hold on.”

“I don’t think there’s a need to wear himself out. After all, he’s not a machine. If he does see all these people, there’ll be other patients coming by then. I believe he can’t see all the sick in the world on his own.”

“But then again, the last three days when Fang Qiu has been treating patients have been the most leisurely time we’ve had in our entire career. We didn’t have a single patient, and we were so excited to see someone come here to get their medicine. We couldn’t leave the office all day and had to sit there drinking tea.”

With that, everyone shook their heads with bitter smiles and left with mixed feelings.

Fang Qiu was still seeing patients in the consulting room of the internal medicine department.

Time went by slowly. It was getting closer and closer to eight o’clock in the morning, the three-day time limit.

Over the past three consecutive days, Fang Qiu had seen more than 900 patients.

Although he saw more patients when he partic.i.p.ated in the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor, the patients he saw this time were completely different from those he saw last time. This time around, the patients were all critically ill. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been using internal Qi to treat them all the time to improve his speed.

More than 900 people may sound a lot, but it was less than half compared with all the patients who came from all over the world to see a doctor.

There were still many patients waiting outside the consulting room.

Those who got registered were all on the third floor. The stairwells on the first, the second, the third, and even the fourth floors had been taken up. There were still a number of unregistered ones in the lobby on the first floor.

These people were all waiting.

“The three-day time limit is almost up!”

“Is it really going to end?”

“What if I fail to see a doctor before the time limit ends?”

“I’ve been lining up for almost a day. Wouldn’t it be a waste of time if I couldn’t make it?”

On the Internet:

Many netizens who were following this matter were also particularly curious.

“The three-day time limit is almost up. Is it true that Fang Qiu will stop seeing patients as soon as the time limit comes?”

“There are still so many people waiting to be treated. Will Fang Qiu really stop after seeing patients for three days?”

“He can’t stop even if he wants to under these circ.u.mstances. Something big will happen if he stops!”

In the consulting room in the hospital:

“Hiss…”

Xu Miaolin, who hadn’t slept for three days, almost fell asleep when he read the book. He immediately rose to his feet, took a deep breath, and opened the window. As soon as the cold wind blew in, he was so frozen that he s.h.i.+vered with his hands on his shoulders.

He grabbed the teacup on the table.

Right after that, he grabbed a large handful of tea leaves and threw them into the cup. He made a particularly strong cup of tea to warm his hands. After the temperature of the tea dropped, he suddenly got up and gulped it down.

“Whew…”

After drinking the strong tea, Xu Miaolin felt so bitter that he twitched his mouth and shook his head. Then he took a long breath, walked to the window, and looked at the people who were still waiting in line downstairs.

“The three-day time limit is finally coming to an end!”

As the three-day time limit approached, those patients who were waiting in line began to get irritated in the hospital. The staff at the registration office had even slowed down the speed of registration as much as possible. Their aim was to delay until three days had pa.s.sed, and then they wouldn’t have to help those patients register with Fang Qiu. That was because Fang Qiu only worked for three days in the hospital system, so his medical services were only available during those three days.

Of course, they slowed down for the sake of Fang Qiu too. They knew that he had been seeing patients non-stop for three days and that he must be exhausted by now. Each additional patient was torture for him.

However, the patients who were waiting in line to see the doctor and those who were waiting to get registered didn’t think so.

As time drew near, these patients began to get agitated.

“What does this mean? Why doesn’t this procession move on?”

“Hurry up. Move!”

“How many people are there ahead?”

“d.a.m.n it, it’s almost time. We’ve been queuing here for so long. What are we going to do after Fang Qiu gets off work?”

“That’s right. We’re all registered.”

“We’ve already paid the registration fee. Can’t the doctor see us?”

Gradually, more and more people were getting impatient, and the slight noise grew louder.

Everyone started to get emotional.

Hearing the noise coming from outside, Xu Miaolin opened the door of his consulting room, glanced outside at the anxious patients who were beginning to make a noise, and thought to himself, “It’s inevitable. It finally happened!”

However, outside Fang Qiu’s consulting room, there were tall stacks of casebooks on the consultation desk.

A patient came forward and asked the nurse sitting at the consultation desk, “Is Doctor Fang Qiu still seeing patients?”

“I don’t know.”

The nurse immediately shook her head.

The patient was in a bad mood and asked aloud, “If Doctor Fang Qiu isn’t going to see patients, what about us who came all the way from far away?”

“That’s right. What should we do?”

“In order to see Fang Qiu, I specially bought a flight ticket. If I can’t see a doctor, who’s going to pay for my plane ticket?”

“We’ve been waiting in line for so long, can’t we see a doctor?”

“That’s right. If we can’t see a doctor, your hospital will be deceiving customers!”

“If Fang Qiu doesn’t treat us, your hospital will violate the spirit of contract since we’ve paid the registration fee. Do you know that it’s improper?”

All of a sudden, the other impatient patients echoed.

They were scared, too. They had no idea what they should do if Fang Qiu really stopped seeing them.

In the face of so many people’s questions, the two young nurses at the consultation desk were frightened.

“I, I don’t know either.”

One young nurse panicked and said, “It has been announced before that Doctor Fang Qiu only saw patients for three days, and he has been seeing patients for three days without rest. I don’t have a clue if he can hold on.”

“What do you mean by ‘you don’t have a clue’?”

A patient instantly got angry and said loudly, “It has nothing to do with Doctor Fang Qiu. It’s the problem of your hospital. If we can’t see a doctor, the hospital must give us an explanation.”

“Yes, the hospital must give us an explanation.”

“The hospital isn’t kidding us, is it? How can we come all the way here without seeing a doctor?”

“I’ve paid the registration fee. Fang Qiu must see me. Otherwise, you’ll know the consequences!”

The voices of the patients grew louder and louder.

All of them were clamoring for an explanation from the hospital.

There were patients who were so anxious that they even targeted Fang Qiu.

The two nurses were scared out of their wits this time.

Seeing that things were going out of control, the two nurses, who were afraid of provoking public anger, could only report to the hospital and find Fang Qiu in the consulting room respectively. It was too much for the two nurses to handle.

In Xu Miaolin’s consulting room:

Hearing the noise outside, Xu Miaolin raised his head and looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was exactly eight o’clock!

At this point, the nurse came out of Fang Qiu’s consulting room.

“Don’t worry, everyone. Doctor Fang Qiu asked me to inform you that he’ll continue to treat you.”

On hearing that, all the people present cheered.

Their anxiety abated, and they gradually calmed down.

Seeing this scene, Xu Miaolin returned to his consulting room and sat down. He took a big sip of tea and continued to read.

During work hours, the physicians from all other departments smiled bitterly after receiving the news.

“Looks like we’re going to rest again today.”

On the Internet:

Everyone clicked their tongues in admiration of Fang Qiu.

“He said he would only see patients for three days, but he continued because there were too many patients. He hasn’t had a rest for three days and three nights. It’s outrageous that he should go this far for patients.”

“Fabulous medical ethics!”

Meanwhile, everyone began to worry about Fang Qiu’s health.

“It’s been three days. Why not let Fang Qiu have a rest?”

“Yeah, he’s a human, not a machine!”

In the consulting room, Fang Qiu went on seeing patients like a Sea-stabilizing Magic Needle.

However, at this moment, the internal Qi in his body was almost drained.

After checking the internal Qi inside him, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but smile bitterly in the consulting room.

Even so, the belief that he wanted to treat everyone was still firm in his eyes, because there were still tons of patients waiting for him outside the door.

He took a deep breath and continued to squeeze out the internal Qi in his body to treat the patients.

One hour… two hours.

As time went by, the internal Qi in his body was gradually disappearing.

After an unknown period of time, there was only the last wisp of internal Qi left in his body.

In this case, he could only use the last wisp of internal Qi to mobilize the Qi of Heaven and Earth to continue treating patients.

Nonetheless, it was not so easy to master the Qi of Heaven and Earth, especially when he was treating patients.

Though that was the case, he still tried his best to do it.

In the end, the last wisp of internal Qi was also consumed.

He had no way to mobilize the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

After seeing a patient, he said with a smile, “Go and have a check.”

The nurse in front of the door asked, “Do you want me to call the next one?”

However, she was answered by a loud noise.

“Bang!”

In the nurse’s inquiry, Fang Qiu smiled. Before he could speak, he fell to the ground and fainted.

Chapter 731 Rooting for Fang Qiu!

At this time, the clock hanging on the wall showed the time as 12 o’clock.

It was already dark outside.

If anyone did a careful calculation, they would find that it had been more than 16 hours.

After working for three days and three nights, plus an additional 16 hours, Fang Qiu had been continuously treating people for 88 hours. He could not go on any longer.

“Pa!”

The sudden crash startled the nurse standing at the door of the consulting room.

“Ah…” She screamed.

The nurse immediately called for help.

The whole consulting room was in chaos.

Undoubtedly, the first one to receive the news was Xu Miaolin, who had been accompanying Fang Qiu in another consulting room not far away.

“Did he pa.s.s out?”

When he heard the news, Xu Miaolin was not anxious or frowning. Instead, there was an imperceptible smile on his face.

Xu Miaolin murmured to himself, “He has finally pa.s.sed the test!”

“Hiss…”

Taking a deep breath, Xu Miaolin tried hard to get up, but found that he could not. His legs seemed to have lost all their strength. He could not even support himself.

“I’m getting old.” Xu Miaolin smiled wryly.

He immediately opened the drawer of the desk and took out a wooden box with silver needles. He then used the acupuncture needles and p.r.i.c.ked himself. After resting for three minutes, he stood up and strode to Fang Qiu’s consulting room, as if nothing had happened.

Everyone in the whole hospital, whether it was those who were still working or those who were off duty, heard the news that Fang Qiu was so exhausted that he pa.s.sed out in the consulting room.

When they heard the news, all the doctors and nurses were stunned!

The doctor was so tired that he fainted in the consulting room?

It might happen to a surgeon who had performed a lengthy operation. It was the first time they heard that the Chinese Medicine doctor was so tired that he fainted in the consulting room.

When they thought about it carefully, Fang Qiu’s workload was so heavy that no ordinary person would have been able to take it.

Fang Qiu was only eighteen years old.

An 18-year-old doctor stuck to his post for 88 hours for the sake of his patients, until he fainted.

It required great perseverance from him to be able to do that!

No one in the Chinese Medicine Hospital could reach Fang Qiu’s level, not even Xu Miaolin. Although he could stay with Fang Qiu for 88 hours without sleeping, he could not work for 88 hours under such pressure.

Everyone was shocked by Fang Qiu’s performance.

At this moment, when they learned that Fang Qiu had pa.s.sed out, all the doctors and nurses in the hospital prayed for Fang Qiu’s recovery.

They prayed that nothing would happen to Fang Qiu!

In the hospital, all the staff, including doctors and nurses were busy working because Fang Qiu fainted.

Outside the consulting room,

“What’s going on?”

“Didn’t he just finish seeing a patient?”

“That’s right. Why are you not continuing to call the number?”

“Nurse, why did you stop calling the number?”

“Hurry up. We’re still waiting in line.”

The patients impatiently addressed the nurses.

“Creak.”

Right at this moment, the door of the consulting room opened. A nurse who was a.s.sisting Fang Qiu, came out of the room. She glared at the noisy patients outside the door, her eyes red and shouted angrily, “What are you shouting about? In order to ensure that he treats all of you, Doctor Fang became so tired that he pa.s.sed out. Stop yelling!”

All the patients waiting in line outside the door were dumbfounded when they heard that.

Looking at the young nurse who was crying in anger, they could not even utter a single word.

They felt sorry for Fang Qiu and were worried about him.

“What should we do?”

“How can Fang Qiu pa.s.s out so easily? He is a doctor himself.”

“That’s right. We haven’t seen the doctor yet. How can he pa.s.s out?”

“We have been waiting in line for so long. I’m done.”

Everyone was anxious.

But at this moment, someone suddenly said, “Is Fang Qiu looking for an excuse? Is it because he does not want to see any more patients?”

“Take a look at him!”

When the young nurse heard this, she immediately turned her head, glared at the person who said that and shouted, “Come here, come and have a look. In order to treat you, Doctor Fang Qiu has been working for 88 hours non-stop and going without sleep. Are you as tired as Doctor Fang Qiu when you are in the queue? When you are sleeping in the hospital, Doctor Fang Qiu is still seeing patients. How could you say this?”

The man who was glared at by the young nurse, snorted disdainfully and said, “It’s none of my concern about the number of hours he has been working. He didn’t treat me yet. If he had treated me earlier, I would have left already.”

As soon as he said that, everyone’s attention was immediately drawn to him, from all directions. Everyone turned their heads to look at him.

“How can you say that?”

“Yeah, Doctor Fang Qiu is such a good man.”

“Doctor Fang Qiu is so tired that he pa.s.sed out. What are you accusing him of here? If you are so capable, you should go and heal Doctor Fang Qiu!”

“You are so rude.”

“Doctor Fang Qiu shouldn’t treat a person like you.”

Hearing that, everyone began to target him angrily.

When he saw that he was at a disadvantage, the man’s face changed. He snorted and said, “That’s fine! It’s just a cold. I can still heal myself without Fang Qiu’s help.”

After that, he snorted furiously, took his medical record and left.

The pressure from the people around him was huge. If he continued to stay and say something, he was afraid that he would be attacked by all the people.

In this case, it was better to leave first.

Only when the people saw the man leave, did they feel relieved.

“Nurse, is Doctor Fang Qiu all right?”

“Yeah, it’s been more than 80 hours. Doctor Fang Qiu must be really tired.”

“Doctor Fang Qiu is the only person I’ve ever seen in my life who pa.s.sed out due to his work. I really admire him.”

“Think about it, everyone. Doctor Fang Qiu is not short of money, so he doesn’t need to come here to treat patients at all. He’s only here because of all of us. But now he is so exhausted that he pa.s.sed out.”

“Nurse, you guys have to heal Dr. Fang.”

The patients said, one after another.

Although the young nurse felt infuriated when she saw that these patients were still not leaving after learning that Fang Qiu had pa.s.sed out, her anger was slightly reduced when she heard their praises and how they understood Fang Qiu’s sacrifice. She nodded to everyone and returned to the consulting room again.

The patients sincerely admired Fang Qiu’s att.i.tude.

They also understood that Fang Qiu fainted because he was exhausted, but even so, they could not leave because they had not been treated yet. If they came back to queue, they did not know how long they would have to wait.

They had no choice but to wait for the result.

Soon, the news that Fang Qiu pa.s.sed out after seeing patients continuously for 88 hours, was posted on the Internet by someone who wanted the public to know about this.

In an instant, the topic, #Fang Qiu pa.s.sed out due to exhaustion after 88 hours#, went straight to the top of the Hot Search List on Weibo.

Countless people joined in the discussion on the topic.

“What? Fang Qiu pa.s.sed out due to exhaustion? Is that true?”

“Oh my G.o.d, it’s horrible. I can’t believe even Fang Qiu could collapse.”

“He hasn’t slept for 88 hours.”

“Great perseverance!”

“As for this perseverance, I want to say, Fang Qiu is awesome!”

“Fang Qiu is a human being after all. Any one will be tired. No matter how much Qi he cultivates, it will still be the same.”

“He’s a good doctor, a peerless doctor!”

“Master Fang Qiu, you must wake up.”

“Don’t let anything happen to him. Master Fang Qiu will get better soon. He will!”

While many people were shocked, they prayed continuously for Fang Qiu to have a quick recovery.

In the hospital, hearing the news that Fang Qiu fainted, Director Zhang Qishun rushed to Fang Qiu’s consulting room immediately. He even got there before Xu Miaolin.

“Hurry up, give him some first aid.”

Seeing Fang Qiu lying on the ground, Zhang Qishun immediately shouted out instructions, for fear that something bad would happen.

Xu Miaolin, who wasted a few minutes because he had to treat himself with acupuncture, finally came to Fang Qiu’s consulting room.

“Let me do it.”

Seeing a doctor picking up Fang Qiu and putting him on the bed, Xu Miaolin said.

Everyone turned around to have a look.

Seeing Xu Miaolin, Director Zhang Qishun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The others were no longer so nervous.

Xu Miaolin was Fang Qiu’s teacher. Xu Miaolin was undoubtedly the best person to treat Fang Qiu.

Once Xu Miaolin did it, the hospital would not be held seriously accountable even if something happened to Fang Qiu during the treatment. However, with Xu Miaolin’s medical skills, nothing would happen to Fang Qiu.

As he walked into the consulting room, Xu Miaolin asked someone to push Fang Qiu’s bed to an open s.p.a.ce and he then took out the acupuncture kit from Fang Qiu’s desk. He first felt Fang Qiu’s pulse and confirmed Fang Qiu’s condition. Then, he inserted the needles into Fang Qiu.

“He’s fine.”

After the acupuncture treatment, Xu Miaolin said, “He’s just worn out. He hasn’t eaten anything for four days and has not had a good rest. Give him some liquid nutrients and let him have a good rest. Don’t let anyone disturb him.”

Director Zhang Qishun was relieved when he heard that.

Then, the news that Fang Qiu was fine, except for his exhaustion, spread throughout the hospital.

The patients cheered when they got the news.

The nurses who were working in Fang Qiu’s consulting room in s.h.i.+fts, were also crying with joy.

They all witnessed what Fang Qiu had done and what real medical ethics were. Therefore, they all sincerely admired Fang Qiu.

Therefore, they were so relieved and excited when they heard that Fang Qiu was fine.

At the same time, the doctors on night duty also heaved sighs of relief.

They greatly admired Fang Qiu.

The news soon spread on the Internet.

When the netizens learned that Fang Qiu was fine, everyone was immensely relieved.

Almost everyone praised Fang Qiu on the topic which reached the top of the Hot Search List.

The att.i.tude Fang Qiu showed was beyond criticism this time.

No one could slander him.

If a doctor fainted while doing his job, who would dare to slander him?

“I’m rooting for Fang Qiu!”

“It’s already very good for any person to be able to last for 24 hours, let alone 88 hours. He didn’t stop and didn’t eat for three days. Fang Qiu worked so hard.”
