The Young Urban Doctor Chapter 2505 2505: Do You Have Any Ideas?

After dinner, Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling took their leave.

As the mother and son were leaving, Ling Mingrui reminded them, "Be careful during this period."

Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling didn't quite understand what Ling Mingrui ant by "be careful."

However, they didn't ask further questions and left after agreeing.

"Mom, what did grandpa an by asking us to be careful?" Luo Ziling asked Ling Ruonan with a puzzled expression on the way.

"I don't know either!" Ling Ruonan sighed, "He must be reminding us to be cautious and not get plotted against."

"That's fine!"

Ling Ruonan hesitated for a mont and then said, "We should be careful in everything, regardless."

"I understand!"

After returning ho, the mother and son went to their room to discuss matters.

"So, your plan was successful?" Ling Ruonan asked Luo Ziling directly.

"Mom, don't put it that way, okay?" Luo Ziling replied with a wry smile, "When grandpa taught dicine, he repeatedly told : The purpose of learning dicine is to treat and save people, to alleviate their ailnts, and it should never be used to harm others. I promised then!"

"Don't burden yourself with so much guilt." Ling Ruonan pinched Luo Ziling's face and then gave a smile, "Isn't the result we have now exactly what we wanted?"

"I think grandpa wants us to be careful to avoid getting hurt by Chen Ruchang's desperate struggles."

Ling Ruonan thought for a mont and then asked Luo Ziling, "Would a disease combined with this virus infection worsen more quickly?"

"There probably hasn't been any research on this!" Luo Ziling shook his head, "But based on available reports, after being infected with this virus, like HIV, it can damage a person's immune system. Once the immune system's defense is compromised by the virus, its ability to clear abnormal cells declines significantly. If an HIV-infected person develops cancer, or a cancer patient gets infected with HIV, it's already terrifying. And this new virus damages the immune system even more severely, so..."

Luo Ziling didn't continue what he was going to say.

Ling Ruonan shivered, fully understanding what Luo Ziling left unsaid.

"Actually, for a doctor to kill soone is all too easy, and many tis it may appear completely untraceable." Luo Ziling gave a bitter smile, "Isn't there a joke online that says never to offend a doctor, or they could make you die inexplicably?"

Ling Ruonan thought for a while and then asked Luo Ziling, "What would happen if a healthy person gets infected with this virus?"

"If a healthy person gets infected with this virus, it might be cleared by the immune system, leading to complete recovery. If the immune system can't withstand the virus's attack, the patient may experience a systemic infection, eventually leading to multi-organ failure and death." Luo Ziling's explanation was based on modern dical theories, which are interpreted differently from traditional Chinese dicine.

"If infected, how should one be treated?" Ling Ruonan quickly explained after seeing Luo Ziling's surprised look, "I'm afraid soone might get infected inadvertently while dealing with this virus."

"Actually, last ti, when Yang Yuanshan fell ill in Tanzhou, it was due to infection with this virus. I used strong thods to activate more immune cells in his body, and the virus was cleared, restoring his health." Since the topic had co up, Luo Ziling decided to explain further, "Bacteria and viruses thrive best at 35-37 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is above or below this range, most bacteria or viruses can't replicate or cause illness. When a person has a fever during an infection, it's a form of self-protection. A higher internal temperature affects the survival of viruses or bacteria, and the immune functions can perform exceptionally, with increased antibody production, enhanced phagocytic activity of white blood cells, and the liver's detoxification functioning better. However, a person's normal life is also impacted because most cells in the body function best at around 37 degrees Celsius. When I treated Yang Yuanshan, I used the Burning Mountain Fire Needling thod to further activate his immune system and used dication to help eliminate the virus inside him."

"Is fever really a self-protective function?" Ling Ruonan was a bit surprised.

"It is indeed," Luo Ziling didn't repeat the earlier explanation but said mysteriously, "In fact, if Chen Ruchang asked us to treat him now, my grandfather or I would still be capable of curing his disease. The treatnt principle is still to use acupuncture to regulate immune function, to use his own body's immunity to eliminate abnormal cells and viruses within. With the help of dication, even if Chen Ruchang's physical condition is currently poor, he could be cured."

Upon hearing this, Ling Ruonan frowned slightly and asked Luo Ziling, "Did your grandpa ask you this question just now?"

Luo Ziling nodded, "Grandpa asked if we would go if we were invited to treat. I said even if they put a gun to my head, I wouldn't go."

Ling Ruonan asked again, "How long do you think until Chen Ruchang's condition worsens?"

Luo Ziling replied softly, "Chen Ruchang is still undergoing chemotherapy and possibly targeted therapy. Pure targeted therapy doesn't greatly harm normal cells. However, chemotherapy or radiation therapy significantly affects normal cells; the saying goes sothing like 'kill a thousand enemies, but lose ten thousand yourself.' But there are far fewer abnormal cells than normal ones, so if you can kill all the abnormal cells, the person can recover eventually. If these treatnt thods continue or if surgery is perford, Chen Ruchang's condition will deteriorate rapidly, bringing him closer to death and possibly causing sudden death from acute organ failure."

Ling Ruonan couldn't help but shiver again, and after a mont of silence, she continued, "If his condition starts deteriorating rapidly, would your intervention be futile then?"

"Yes!" Luo Ziling nodded, "At most, it could extend his life by a few days to several months, but complete recovery would be impossible."

"Then in the coming months, let's closely monitor the changes in Chen Ruchang's condition," Ling Ruonan didn't comnt much but instructed Luo Ziling to act cautiously, "If Chen Ruchang realizes there's no hope for recovery, he'll surely make arrangents. He might even go to great lengths to get rid of us. I think he'll definitely suspect we've ddled in his death sohow. We must not be complacent!"

"Mom, I think the Chen Family no longer has the ability to destroy us as long as we take adequate precautions. What we should plan for is how to secure the greatest benefit once the Chen Family's complete downfall occurs."

Ling Ruonan muttered a bit, quietly asking Luo Ziling, "Do you have any ideas?"
