Chapter 275: Spring rain

[Surgery incomplete! Host’s hands are severely contaminated! This surgery will not count for host’s surgical experience! Host, please strictly obey sterile operation standards!]

While Zhang Fan wasn’t absolutely perfect at performing surgery, he had never violated surgical standards or left a surgery before it was finished before. That was why he’d never known that his System was so high-tech that it was even capable of calling out its host for improper surgery standards!

Zhang Fan was truly astonished when he heard the System’s voice speaking up in his mind as he was changing surgical attire! However, Zhang Fan no longer worried after he finished listening to the message. As long as his System wasn’t leaving him because of this, he wouldn’t care at all if he didn’t gain surgical experience in his System for one surgery only.

Zhang Fan loved grinding surgical experience, but he valued human lives even more. He could grind all the surgical experience that he wanted in the future! But, human lives would only have one chance! There were no do-overs in life.

After Zhang Fan took off his surgical attire, he ran into the hands-washing area while wearing nothing but his scrubs. He absolutely needed to wash his hands since he had just been working on a clean-contaminated surgery.

The abdomen was a highly important location in the human body which contained many organs. Several muscle layers were in front of the abdomen as protection. It was even more well protected from the back by the spine. This place was obviously important.

The human body’s most fragile organs would always be protected by solid bones. The lungs, heart, and liver were protected by ribcage. The slightly more durable and slightly less important organs were protected by the greater omentum.

If you opened up the abdomen and looked at it under the illumination of an astral lamp, it would seem as if the abdomen was covered by a light yellow curtain. This was the greater omentum, also known as the omentum majus. It really resembled the yellow beaded curtains that many Chinese restaurants liked to hang at the entrance. Of course, the yellow of the greater omentum came from the color of fat!

The majority of the digestive organs were protected by the greater omentum. Only a small portion of the stomach, part of the ascending colon, and some of the small intestine weren’t covered by the greater omentum.

The organs in the abdomen wouldn’t grow just randomly. Everything had its set order.

Since the intestines were covered and affixed by the greater omentum, lesser omentum, peritoneum, and ligaments, this would serve to keep the intestines in place. There would be no risk of accidentally dropping your own intestines while you were vigorously exercising this way, nor would you spit up your intestines because of being upside-down!

Although the Chinese ancestors didn’t know about germs or viruses, they indeed knew that diseases would enter through the mouth. Every single bite of food, no matter how high-class or clean your food was, would contain tremendous numbers of germs and viruses.

After you chewed your food in your mouth, the food would then travel down the esophagus and into the stomach. The stomach wouldn’t be responsible for absorbing nutrients. The stomach actually functioned like a mouth with no teeth as it would constantly grind down the food into a paste. The stomach acid would then kill germs as it was a powerful hydrochloric acid. If it wasn’t for our powerful stomach acid, it was likely that just the germs and viruses from your ordinary daily food alone would be enough to kill you!

The small intestine was the part which actually focused on absorbing nutrition. The liver would secrete bile, while the pancreas would secrete pancreatic juice, helping to guide the food into the small intestine.

If you stretched out the small intestine completely, it would actually be approximately six meters in length. The small intestine would be even longer in a fat person! That was because the small intestine was fully focused on absorbing nutrition.

After the digested food had its nutrients and water absorbed, it would then move into the large intestine as feces. The large intestine consisted of three major portions: the cecum, the colon, and the rectum.
