Chapter 68 Stunning Acupuncture Skills (2)

2063 Words
After all, Dr. Hu was a person who specialized in medicine. When he saw how Lu Yao diagnosed the complexion, located the acupoints, and inserted the needles, he felt that this young man was really not simple. Because even someone like him, who had been studying and practicing acupuncture for decades, could not perform acupuncture without looking. But when Lu Yao took out needles and performed acupuncture, he rarely looked for acupoints with his eyes. Sometimes, he even directly inserted the needles with his back to the old man. That kind of action looked very casual, and few of the onlookers could understand how powerful it was. However, Dr. Hu, Fang Jinghua, and Wang Guangkun, who understood medical knowledge, knew how incredible the skill displayed in this process was. According to Dr. Hu's conclusion, without a dozen years of hard training, it was impossible to have such a level of skills. Therefore, Dr. Hu made up his mind and said, "Let him try. If anything happens, I will take the responsibility!" "Mr. Hu, this is the property of our Fang family. How can an outsider like you meddle in our business? I don't mind how you usually treat me, but my uncle is here today. You..." Fang Xing used to be a playboy. He did not care much about the matters of his family. Recently, if his father had not threatened to cut off his source of income, he would not have abandoned his good and unrestrained life to learn how to do business with Fang Jinghua. Doing business was simply so boring to him. Previously, when he saw that Dr. Hu was deeply loved and esteemed in Sanbao Pharmacy, Fang Xing was also polite to him. However, when he heard that Dr. Hu took the liberty to ask an outsider like Lu Yao to treat the old man, his expression changed drastically and he said in a fit of anger. "Shut up!" Fang Xing wanted to continue cursing but was interrupted by Fang Jinghua. Fang Jinghua bent down and asked Dr. Hu again, "Teacher, life is at stake, do you have confidence in him?" "I can see that this young man is full of awe-inspiring righteousness. He doesn't look like an i***t who speaks empty words. Moreover, I can faintly feel a very mysterious aura from him. Although this concerns the life of the old man, we would rather believe him than not. Let him try. At worst, I will bear the consequences. It has nothing to do with your Sanbao Company!" Dr. Hu had asked himself countless times in his heart, but he still decided to believe the young man in front of him at the moment. "Teacher, you know that's not what I meant!" Fang Jinghua hurriedly explained. "..." "Since you don't have any objection, could I insert the needles now?" Lu Yao asked again after getting their permission. Fang Jinghua and Dr. Hu looked at each other and nodded. Lu Yao quickly inserted needles into the old man's four important acupoints: Neiguan, Danzhong, Jiquan, and Zhiyang. Dr. Hu saw it clearly nearby. As an old doctor, he knew that the four major acupoints were closely linked to the hearts of human beings. This was especially true for Neiguan. It was an acupoint of the pericardium channel of hand jueyin and was one of eight confluence points. It had many uses and was an important juncture protecting the heart. The pericardium was the fibrous sac that surrounded the heart. It could dredge the meridians, improve the blood supply of the heart, and treat all kinds of heart disease. After inserting the four needles, Lu Yao immediately inserted additional needles into Huantiao, Taichong, Shenshu, and Dachangshu. After Lu Yao inserted the needles into the eight acupoints, a large amount of sweat had already appeared on his forehead. When Dr. Hu saw this, he immediately asked someone nearby to bring him a towel. He personally wiped away Lu Yao's sweat. At this time, Lu Yao was focused on saving the old man and did not care about this, allowing Dr. Hu to wipe away his sweat. After taking a deep breath, Lu Yao carefully took two silver needles and inserted them into the old man's Fengfu and Fengchi. Wang Guangkun had been standing behind Fang Jinghua and remained silent since he came to the scene. Previously, he thought that Lu Yao was indeed capable. The acupuncture techniques he used to insert the previous needles were perfect. Moreover, they appeared a little ingenious. Those closed-eye acupuncture techniques also made him a little surprised. However, upon seeing the hand gestures and angles when Lu Yao inserted the needles into the old man's Fengfu and Fengchi, he shouted in shock, "Stop, you are going to kill him!" As Wang Guangkun spoke, he stepped forward and was ready to push Lu Yao away. But what surprised him was that when he pushed Lu Yao with all his strength as he was "eager to save the old man", he was unable to move him even half a step away. Lu Yao still inserted the two needles into the old man's Fengfu and Fengchi acupoints. "Who are you? What are you doing?" Dr. Hu was usually straightforward. He did not have many friends in the medical circle. Other than those highly respected persons, he rarely made friends with others. In addition, he had been retired for many years, so he did not know who Wang Guangkun was. When he saw Wang Guangkun being rude to Lu Yao who was using acupuncture to save the old man, he was immediately unsatisfied. Fang Jinghua had been in the business world for a long time. He had long mastered various tactful ways of handling things. Today, Wang Guangkun visited him to discuss a promising deal. So he immediately introduced him to Dr. Hu, "Teacher, let me introduce Mr. Wang to you. This is Wang Guangkun, the newly appointed Director of the First People's Hospital of Shuangta. We are all on the same side. Don't misunderstand." Although Dr. Hu did not say anything else after hearing Fang Jinghua's words, he still looked at Wang Guangkun coldly. "The persons at the Sanbao Pharmacy are really unreasonable. I lost my diamond ring here and was waiting for an explanation. Now you allow a nobody to perform acupuncture here. Do you really think that our Wang family is easy to bully?" Before Wang Guangkun could say anything, his son took the lead to angrily scold Sanbao Pharmacy's staff present. Wang Tianyi was the only son of Wang Guangkun, and his father doted on him quite a lot. Knowing that Fang Jinghua was the richest man in Shuangta, Wang Guangkun asked for help from many persons. He wanted to cooperate with him to pave the way for the future of his son. This was the reason why they had this meeting today. However, when he saw his impetuous son, who was usually arrogant, made a scene here in Sanbao Pharmacy, he was also embarrassed. He reprimanded, "Yi'er, don't be rude. Apologize to Uncle Fang!" "Apologize? Apologize for what?" Wang Tianyi was usually not afraid of his father. In front of so many people, this reckless young man, for fear of losing face, lost his temper. He shouted, "This old man bumped into me so that my diamond ring went missing. But without giving me an explanation, this pharmacy is also making a scene here. Do they really think that we can't do business without them?" These bullshits really deserved a hard slap in the face. However, after hearing what Wang Tianyi said, Wang Guangkun only looked at Fang Jinghua a little awkwardly. "I will give you an explanation for what happened today." Although Fang Jinghua was tactful, it did not mean that he did not have a temper. How could a person like him who had been high up in the social ladder for a long time not have a temper? He glanced at Wang Guangkun with a gloomy expression and said, "I also hope that Director Wang can give everyone a reasonable explanation for stopping this little brother from performing acupuncture." When Wang Guangkun heard Fang Jinghua calling him Director Wang instead of Mr. Wang, he was also aware of Fang Jinghua's displeasure. So he carefully explained, "Mr. Fang, you might not know that wind is the chief pathogen of all diseases. So Fengchi has an irreplaceable effect on resisting and expelling the cold wind and exogenous evil. When the body maintains a certain posture and doesn't move for a long time, it is susceptible to suffer a cervical disease. Massaging Fengchi could make the meridian-energy unblocked and relax and activate the tendons. It has a very good effect for preventing cervical spondylosis, cervical spondylosis, neck rigidity and pain, and other diseases. The most important thing is that massaging Fengchi acupoint could awake the brain and improve blood supply to the brain. It is a good acupoint for treating cerebrovascular coma, dementia, and aphasia. The effects would be even better when combined with the massaging of Fengfu and Yamen." "But..." Wang Guangkun suddenly changed his tone. "The deep part of Fengchi and Yamen is the spinal cord of the brain. When inserting needles into this part, we must strictly command the angle and depth of the needles. Otherwise, accidents would happen. The angle and strength of the young man just now were not only completely wrong, but also ridiculous. I have been a doctor for more than 30 years, and I have never seen such a method of acupuncture. Using such a method is no different from murder, so I just stopped him for your own good." Some of the people present knew Wang Guangkun. They knew that Wang Guangkun didn't rely solely on flattery and bandwagon to become the director of Shuangta's First People's Hospital. His medical skills were also extremely powerful. Wang Guangkun's medical papers on heart disease, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, cancer, etc. were published in major newspapers such as Xindu Times, Xindu Daily, Huaguo Medical Weekly. When he had just been appointed as the director of Shuangta's First People's Hospital, several major newspapers in Xinlu Province had even published long reports about this matter, hailing him as "Model of the Era", "Famous Doctor of Morality and Skills for Western Great Development", and something like that. When everyone heard what he said, they began to doubt Lu Yao. After all, one was a medical expert who had been famous for a long time while the other was just a person who looked like a student no one knew and was not even twenty years old. Although Dr. Hu was dissatisfied with Wang Guangkun's behavior before, after listening to his words and recalling the knowledge of acupuncture that he had mastered, he felt what Wang Guangkun said was very reasonable. In medical literature, there were long chapters about Fengchi and Fengfu. Even ordinary doctors knew the importance of these two acupoints to the human body. Moreover, there was also a saying: use fingers to rub Fengchi instead of needles. What it meant was that inserting needles into these two acupoints was quite difficult. Generally, when the situation was not very urgent, doctors should use fingers to gently massage them instead of using needles. It was because these two acupoints were too vulnerable. Thinking carefully about the hand gesture and angle of Lu Yao when he applied the needles, he felt that what he did was really not appropriate. "Look, there is blood flowing out of the corner of the old man's mouth and eyes. It seems that the old man is dying because of the brat's treatment!" Suddenly, a sharp-eyed person in the crowd screamed. When Dr. Hu, Wang Guangkun, and Fang Jinghua heard this, they all quickly looked at the old man. Dr. Hu touched the old man's pulse, and his expression changed several times. Wang Guangkun touched the old man's pulse and leaned over to listen to the old man's heartbeat. He kept shaking his head. When Fang Jinghua was aware of the expressions of Dr. Hu and Wang Guangkun, his expression was not as cordial as before when he looked at Lu Yao. A hint of joy appeared on Fang Xing and Wang Tianyi's faces. They looked at Lu Yao as if he was a prisoner under sentence of death.
