Outside the door to the reception of the Emergency Medicine building.
A group of doctors stood according to their positions before the associate hospital director in a wide, fan-shaped formation. They stood as still as statues and with calm faces.
In less than two minutes, a considerably new Volkswagen Passat stopped in front of the door. When the DiDi[1] driver got down from the car and saw the sea of doctors in white coats, he froze for a few seconds.
Huo Congjun waved his hand, and two nurses pushed a gurney over in a flash and stopped in front of the car. The nurses' gazes were firm, their movements exemplary, and their bodies straight.
"So painful, so painful." A girl hopped out of the car with one leg and climbed onto the gurney. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she was whimpering.
It seems there has been some confusion in the last chapter.
It isn't actually some obscure Chinese reference, it's just metaphors that aren't explained in the raws.
Please allow me to try and make things simpler by you by explaining shiz.
Pine tree = flexor tendon suture
Ash tree = nerve anastomosis
Elm tree = skin suture
(The above is just an example, it can be any skill combination)
In a forest, all three trees are found side by side = In flexon tendon repair, all three skills are used side by side.
Many pine trees, ash trees, elm trees together, what is the significance in a hospital? = Usually, in other professions, the professionals specialize in one skill only, so there is actually no need for them to learn other skills. That is not the case in hospitals, because there are few surgeons who specialize solely in nerve anastomosis and don't know other skills, which is why in the next paragraph, it says there is a significance for all trees to be together, because surgeons will need a combination of skills (trees) to perform an entire surgery.
