Hua Tuo's giant needle for treating rheumatism
There is a story about a scholar who wrote a couplet for a wealthy merchant. The top line reads: Raising pigs, each one looks like an old mouse; the bottom line reads: Making wine vats, good ones are sour vinegar vats.
The rich man's understanding is, 'Raising pigs is just like raising elephants; old mice are all plagues; making wine vats is good, making vinegar vats is sour.' While the long worker who resents this rich man will interpret this couplet as, 'Raising pigs is just like raising mice, every one is a plague; making wine vats is good but making vinegar vats is sour.'
The scholar in the story can be said to have pleased both the wealthy owner and the long worker.
This story, apart from having some profound meaning in Chinese, also tells people that everyone's understanding of a sentence will always tend towards what they hope for.
So, the two old men naturally understood Zhang Jin's "not bad" as "compound", and they were overjoyed. With a meaningful glance at Zhang Jin, who was already getting a bit embarrassed, Ye Mama smiled and said: "Little Jin, you go to the living room with your dad and chat for a while, I'll go to the kitchen to cook. Today we have your favorite 'crab fried rice cake' and 'braised pomfret fish'!
Although Zhang Jin is a master of culinary arts and knows that the dishes he makes are definitely better than those made by Ye Mama, this "former mother-in-law", he tactfully did not show off his skills. Elders love to see their younger generation enjoy their cooking with relish, it's a kind of satisfaction that only parents can experience. As someone who is known as an "old friend" and an expert in the psychology of older people, Zhang Jin naturally wouldn't ruin Ye Mama's good mood.
So, Zhang Jin also smiled and said: "Well, I'm waiting to eat the ready-made ones. You don't know, it's been so long since I've eaten my mom's 'crab fried rice cake' and dad's 'braised pomfret fish', I've been craving them so much! Today, besides coming to see you guys, I was also thinking if I could eat these good things!"
Ye's mother happily returned to the kitchen, more determined than ever, and brought out her best dishes. For the time being, the kitchen was in the hands of her husband, Ye's father, who had not yet taken the stage but was beaming with joy as he pulled Zhang Jin over to sit down on the sofa.
"Dad, you might not know that I've finally made some progress in my studies of traditional Chinese medicine. The prescription I gave you before was effective for your symptoms, but it may not have been the most suitable one. Now that I have some time, let me take a look at how you're doing?" After chatting with Ye Dad for a few minutes about this and that, Zhang Jin steered the conversation to Ye Dad's physical condition.
Ye Dad's filial piety towards Zhang Jin would not be stopped, and he still smiled and said: "Okay, okay, let's take a look. In traditional Chinese medicine, you need to feel the pulse, right?" As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand.
"Ah, yes! Take his pulse." Zhang Jin said, placing the index and middle fingers of his left hand on Ye Dad's wrist.
Actually, while speaking earlier, Zhang Jin had already taken the opportunity to use the "Wang Wen Wen Qie" four-character diagnostic method's "Wang diagnosis" to diagnose the two old men once, and had already made a preliminary judgment. Now, using "Qie diagnosis" again was just to confirm his own "Wang diagnosis" results, and to show off in front of Ye Dad. After all, diagnosing an illness at a glance is too incredible for ordinary people, and it's also too difficult to convince others.
A few seconds later, Zhang Jin released Ye's right hand and smiled on his face: "Dad, your body has improved a lot. Now I'll give you an acupuncture treatment, and after taking medicine for a few more days, this illness will be completely cured."
Even without the miraculous healing effects of traditional Chinese medicine, Ye Dabai trusted Zhang Jin 100%. Now that he had personally experienced the efficacy of Zhang Jin's medicine, he was even more inclined to listen to and believe in him, blindly following his words. So, without any hesitation, he followed Zhang Jin's instructions, took off his sweatshirt, and lay down on the sofa! This attitude was much stronger than those who came to treat their arthritis in Haiwazi Village at first.
Leaf Dad was already prepared, Zhang Jin first turned off the air conditioner and opened the window to let in the natural breeze. Afterwards, Zhang Jin returned to Leaf Dad's side and did not take out the set of hundreds of silver needles as he had when treating the villagers' arthritis in Haiwocun, but instead, in a position where Leaf Dad couldn't see, his right hand flashed, and only one five-inch-long silver needle appeared between his thumb and index finger - Zhang Jin had changed from ' Hundred Needle Flow' to 'One Needle Flow'.
The silver needle in Zhang Jin's hand shook out countless silver lights, like the sparkling rain of crystal clear glass under the sunlight, falling on Ye Dad's back, neck and various acupoints.
Hua Tuo's Needle: The halberd and medical equipment of 'Lethal Physician' Lie Zhenbei, a high-ranking expert on the Black List in "Over Rain Flips Clouds".
Just yesterday, Zhang Jin carefully recalled every detail of his battle with Beigong Huayue, and when he reviewed his gains and losses, he finally discovered the flaws in his moves.
If it were still as usual, if Zhang Jin didn't know that real martial artists existed in the world, he might have continued to follow his original training plan step by step. Regardless of anything else, first practice the thirty attribute-enhancing ultimate secret manuals and then talk about other things; don't waste a single skill point before mastering all thirty ultimate martial arts!
But now that I know this world has real martial artists, and I've even shown off my skills in front of them, according to the book's way of speaking, this means I've already gotten mixed up in the jianghu.
"The rivers and lakes", is a very dangerous place, Zhang Jin doesn't know. The only way he understands the so-called "rivers and lakes" is through movies. No matter how much exaggeration there is in them, no matter how much they exaggerate the danger of the "rivers and lakes", but since life is only once, for the sake of his own little life, Zhang Jin has to make the worst assumptions.
So, Zhang Jin calculated the danger level of that martial world called 'Jianghu' with a weight of 200% based on the most bloody ones. As a result, Zhang Jin found that this Jianghu road seemed to be thorny all the way, and the people in Jianghu seemed even more dangerous than the 'Dare-to-Die Troops' + 'Cannon Fodder Corps' during wartime. There were often opportunities to lose one's head, and there was always a possibility of disability at any time.
The world is like a battlefield, where one general's success means the withering of ten thousand bones! Zhang Jin rather enjoys his current 'pig-like' life and doesn't mind continuing to live as such. If he could be this kind of 'pig', Zhang Jin wouldn't even deign to become that renowned war general or great hero, but he even more so doesn't want to become the stepping stone for a great hero's rise to fame.
So Zhang Jin naturally had to arm himself and quickly learn some martial arts that could fight. After some consideration, Zhang Jin took out the paper full of ugly characters from the storage space again, and once again buried his head in revising his cultivation plan.
After repeated calculations, it was found that even the easiest to achieve "Divine Sword" of the three young masters among the thirty peerless martial arts was still far away in time. Therefore, Zhang Jin had no choice but to start shifting his gaze from the thirty peerless martial arts and chose a few combat skills outside of the thirty peerless martial arts to learn. And 'Poison Doctor' Lie Zhenbei's "Hua Tuo Needle Method" was the first one that Zhang Jin picked! This kind of martial art, which is helpful for secondary occupations and can fight, must be learned first.
"Hua Tuo Needle" in "Rainstorm Flip Cloud" is not as good as the five great heavenly soldiers, but it is also a high-end equipment with limited quantity in the game. Whether it's used as a medical device or as a weapon, its effectiveness is far superior to that of ordinary acupuncture needles. Moreover, this "Hua Tuo Needle Method" contains the essence of all the acupuncture methods of "Poison Doctor" Lie Zhenbei.
According to the summary of a top player from that year, among the many famous doctors in "Wulin Three Kingdoms", if only considering acupuncture techniques, Lie Zhenbei is absolutely number one, and no one can compare to him!
For example, Hu Qingniu in "The Legend of the Condor Hero", Ping Yizhi in "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", Wan Chunliu in "The Twins of Brothers", Ye Tian Shi in "Blood Phoenix" ... These people all have master-level medical skills and have full-level acupuncture techniques. However, in reality, their 'full-level acupuncture techniques' are far inferior to Lie Zhenbei's 'full-level acupuncture technique'. It can be said that Lie Zhenbei's "Hua Tuo Needle Method" is a divine skill that surpasses the "full-level" acupuncture technique!
After learning the "Hua Tuo Needle Method", although this Hua Tuo needle made Zhang Jin suddenly change from "Bai Zhen Liu" to "Yi Zhen Liu", making Zhang Jin a little uncomfortable, the acupuncture effect was still much better than before.
In addition, Zhang Jin chose to learn "Hua Tuo's Needle Method" for another reason, that is, the "Hua Tuo's Needle" is currently the top-level weapon that Zhang Jin can actually use.
In the game "Wulin Three Kingdoms", dark gold equipment is the ultimate equipment, and the equipment requirements are naturally very high! As a member of the dark gold equipment, 'Hua Tuo Needle' is no exception. However, because 'Hua Tuo Needle' itself is a medical device, its equipment requirements are also different from other weapons. The only requirement for equipping Hua Tuo Needle is - Acupuncture Level 10! It just so happens that Zhang Jin can meet the equipment conditions of this top-notch weapon.
"How is it Lotus Flower Fist again paired with needle as a weapon? Won't I really become Eastern Sister?"
