Chapter 1494 The Lost Acupuncture Technique

The treatment continued.

Once again, the six highly-skilled doctors put all their energies into treating patients.

There were many patients and doctors. The diagnosis desks of six highly-skilled doctors were arranged in a row. They accepted and diagnosed patients at the same time. As for the other doctors of Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine, they treated these patients according to the prescriptions given by several highly-skilled doctors.

At first, there was not enough time for this team of Western Medicine and Chinese Medicine doctors to handle all the patients in time.

But after Fang Qiu joined them, the speed of their treatment quickly increased.

Unfortunately…

Such a good state didn’t last long before — a patient broke the scene in good order.

“Eh?”

It was Yu Qing, the highly-skilled doctor, who received this patient.

When he took the patient’s pulse, he found something wrong with his condition. After a careful examination, he frowned deeply and said, “Your disease is the same as the strange one recorded in ancient medical books. How did you get this disease?”

The patient was confused.

He couldn’t understand what Yu Qing was saying.

But nearly them…

Yu Qing’s questions attracted the other two highly-skilled doctors nearby, and they looked over.

“What’s the matter?”

Bu Chunqiu, the highly-skilled doctor sitting on the left side of Yu Qing, asked.

“What’s the disease?”

The highly-skilled doctor Lu Chengze on Yu Qing’s right side also asked curiously.

“It’s a rare disease.”

Yu Qing, the highly-skilled doctor, frowned. While thinking about it, he replied, “There’s a cure for this strange disease, but we must use an acupuncture method of flying needles driving Qi. But that method has been lost. I’m afraid it’s not easy to cure him.”

The other highly-skilled doctors also turned their attention to them.

Full of curiosity…

In addition to Yu Qing, the other five highly-skilled doctors came to feel the patient’s pulse one by one. They discovered that the patient’s condition was exactly as Yu Qing had said. The acupuncture method of flying needles driving Qi must be used to raise and adjust the patient’s Qi.

The six highly-skilled doctors racked their brains for ideas. But after pondering for a long time, no one found a solution.

Since these highly-skilled doctors could do nothing about it…

How could those doctors of brightness treating patients behind them find a way to deal with it?

The six highly-skilled doctors were stumped by this unexpected case.

For a moment…

No one knew what effective prescription should be written.

Chinese Medicine doctors could do nothing about it. While those Western Medicine doctors were treating symptoms and not the root cause. They were also at the end of their resources when it came to such a strange disease.

“Do you have any other methods?”

The highly-skilled doctor Yu Qing asked.

After he said that…

The others frowned. If there were a way, they would have said it long ago. Why must they waste time puzzling over the problem for so long?

“Oh, I almost forget it.”

Just when everyone felt utterly at a loss, the highly-skilled doctor Zhou Shizhan sitting on the right side, suddenly said. He pointed to Fang Qiu, who was treating other patients behind him, and added, “Maybe he knows a way!”

After he said that…

Everyone felt enlightened.

Fang Qiu was right here! Though this young guy had not yet officially become a highly-skilled doctor, he was equally competent and even more powerful.

Perhaps this guy had a way.

“Fang Qiu.”

Yu Qing didn’t stand on ceremony and called Fang Qiu.

“Uh?”

After curing one patient, Fang Qiu handed the next patient to other Chinese Medicine doctors. Then he quickly turned around and walked toward the six highly-skilled doctors.

Seeing them staring at him, Fang Qiu was slightly stunned and asked, “Seniors, what is this about?”

“Let me ask you.”

Before the others could speak, the highly-skilled doctor Yu Qing asked directly, “Do you have a way to drive the patient’s Qi?”

“Activating Qi.”

Fang Qiu was stunned.

“Yes.”

Yu Qing nodded affirmatively.

“Then, I want to try the acupuncture method.”

Fang Qiu said.

“Eh?”

The six highly-skilled doctors were stunned and asked curiously, “You can do it?”

“When I stayed at the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine, I almost finished reading all the ancient books of Chinese Medicine there. From them, I learned some acupuncture methods of flying needles driving Qi.” n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m

With a nod, Fang Qiu continued, “Flying needles driving Qi is a medical terminology about acupuncture methods with needles. It refers to some specific acupuncture methods. First, viscera in the five elements mutually reinforce and neutralize each other. Methods like reinforcing mother viscera for treating a deficiency of child viscera and purging child viscera for treating the excess of mother viscera should be used.

“Second, when performing the reinforcing method, first apply nine shallow punctures then nine deep punctures with the correct breathing. Feel the Qi movement and wait for the desired sensation. It is also called crossing blockages moving Qi.

“According to The Ode to Acupuncture Needles, there are four ways of crossing blockages moving Qi when doctors need to get over the barriers and make the Qi reach the desired destination.

“The first method is Divine Dragon Wagging Tail. The Ode to Acupuncture Needles recorded: doctors stir needles like turning a rudder, neither advancing nor retreating. They should slowly and steadily move needles left and right like a dragon wagging its tail.

“The second method is to White Tiger Shaking Head. According to The Ode to Acupuncture Needles, doctors shake needles like white tigers moving its head. When withdrawing the needles, they move them forward along a semi-circle round and retreat along a semi-square. Like ringing a bell, they should move needles left and right and pause occasionally, making needles vibrate.

“The third method is Black Tortoise Probing Cave. It’s recorded in The Ode to Acupuncture Needles. Doctors stick needles into their patients in three directions before withdrawing them. They should repeat the process like a turtle searching underground in all directions.

“The fourth method is Red Phoenix Fluttering Wings. According to The Ode to Acupuncture Needles, doctors stick needles to the deepest part and move them upward. Then, they insert needles a little deeper when the desired sensation comes. Afterward, they fiddle with needles vertically and horizontally, twisting them around.”

Speaking of this…

Fang Qiu continued, “Besides, many other ancient books about medical skills or acupuncture methods mentioned it. The flying needles driving Qi method has been lost, but I have carefully studied it. By using the strong points of all others, I finally learned this method.”

After he said that…

The eyes of the six highly-skilled doctors immediately lit up.

“Has he learned this method?”

“Tell me about it.”

Yu Qing, the highly-skilled doctor, said.

“Then I’ll give you a few examples.”

Fang Qiu nodded and said, “In The Ode to Acupuncture Needles, doctors applying the Divine Dragon Wagging Tail shouldn’t push or withdraw their needles after sticking them into the patients. Also, they can’t raise or lower needles. Instead, they must slowly wiggle needles left and right. In the process, they could stimulate their patients’ Qi.

“However, in Acupuncture Questions and Answers, the author Wang Ji described this method differently: when manipulating needles, doctors should insert needles into the desired depth of the acupoint, moving and pressing them slowly like handling a rudder. In each acupoint, needles should be moved to the left and right for the time of five breaths. Doctors press needles and shake them like a dragon wagging its tail. Gradually, they could clear the way and activate the circulation of Qi.

“He proposed to shake needles in each acupoint for five breaths. He described the time of acupuncture!

“In addition, Li Ting also mentioned in Introduction to Medicine: the doctor should use two fingers to press down on the needle tip and direct it toward the affected area, like steering a boat, holding it without turning. Move the needle on the left, then on the right, slowly rotating it nine times, even up to three times nine which is twenty-seven times. Qi will pass through the meridians.

“On this point, it is pointed out that the Divine Dragon Wagging Tail should not be limited to pass blockages and joints. It should be applied to the affected area.

“Yang Jizhou, in Compendium of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, referred to this needling technique as the Black Dragon Wagging Tail. The Black Dragon Wagging Tail can be used for nourishment. It is applied to the joints. Doctors slowly withdraw and support the needle, like operating a boat’s rudder in a river. The process allows the Qi to flow throughout the body.

“If an invigoration method can collect Qi, it is purely nourishing. Otherwise, a purgative method should be adopted. Doctors should suit their actions to changing conditions.

“Inserting the needle, doctors quickly lead Qi to joints. Doctors should withdraw the needle slowly while supporting it, like steering a boat. The needle should be moved left and right according to the Qi flows, making different Qi flows naturally interact. It should be slowly rotated left and right, circulating the Qi throughout the body. Though this method affects Qi flows, their basics remain the same.”

When he said that…

Fang Qiu added, “The White Tiger Shaking Head method also has used the strong points of all others.”

When the six highly-skilled doctors heard all of this…

They all nodded with satisfaction.

“It’s useless to say more. Let’s try it.”

Yi Banxian brought the patient to Fang Qiu.

After briefly measuring his pulse, Fang Qiu immediately began treating him with acupuncture.

The six highly-skilled doctors watched aside.

When they witnessed Fang Qiu’s skill, their eyes lit up.

Soon…

Fang Qiu was done.

“Oh, I forgot to record it.”

Beside him, Yu Qing, the highly-skilled doctor, slapped his forehead and hurriedly said to Fang Qiu, “Hurry up and perform the acupuncture again. Wait for me to shoot video of him.”

When Fang Qiu heard that…

He inserted the needles again.

After the highly-skilled doctor Yu Qing shot the video…

“Great. That’s great.”

He came forward, patted Fang Qiu on the shoulder with satisfaction, and said, “You have made a great contribution to the inheritance and development of Chinese Medicine. You have rendered outstanding service to the development of Chinese Medicine.”

“No, you overpraised me. I’m a student of Chinese Medicine. This is what I should do.”

Fang Qiu replied modestly.

The six highly-skilled doctors were even more impressed with Fang Qiu.

Just then…

“Clatter, clatter, clatter…”

There was a sudden rush of footsteps.

The rescue station’s floor was quite high above the ground. Thus, anyone running on it would make a loud sound.

They turned to look.

Right there…

The person who ran in was the local official.

“What’s up?”

Lu Chengze, the highly-skilled doctoR assigned to this place from the beginning, stepped forward and asked.

“There’s an outbreak of disease.”

The official said with a serious face, “I come over to inform everyone first. I hope everyone will disinfect regularly and isolate those infected people. The patient will be sent here in a while. We haven’t yet figured out what the disease is. I hope you can hold a consultation to find a solution.”

These highly-skilled doctors immediately nodded.

Such a thing was not a surprise to them.

After all, epidemics would often break out after disasters. Thus, everyone began to prepare for the arrival of the patient.

At the same time…

Western Medicine doctors also took out disinfectants and sprayed them everywhere to disinfect the area thoroughly.

The local official turned the operating room into an isolation room. He didn’t dare to let other injured people and patients contact the contagious patient.

Soon after…

Everything was ready.

The patient was sent here.

As soon as the patient arrived, Western Medicine doctors immediately went forward and disinfected the way the patient passed. Eventually, the patient was sent to the isolation room.

The six highly-skilled doctors held a consultation for this patient in the isolation room. Meanwhile, Fang Qiu continued examining and treating patients in the rescue station.

In the isolation room…

The patient was lying on the bed. After a careful examination, the six highly-skilled doctors hurried out and began the consultation outside.

However…

In the face of the patient’s condition, the six highly-skilled doctors couldn’t help frowning during the consultation. They felt that all their treatment plans were inappropriate.

Helplessly…

The six highly-skilled doctors could only ask the local official to get the other four highly-skilled doctors from the other two rescue points. Then, they could have a consultation together.

Soon…

Ten highly-skilled doctors gathered.

The four doctors who had just arrived checked the patient. Right after that, they participated in the consultation.

However, they couldn’t figure out a suitable treatment plan after a long time. At last, they chose a compromise method and began to give the patient medicine.
