Chapter 98: Prolonging Life, Xiao Family (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Nowadays, young people! To become famous, they dare to do anything!" Old Yue looked at Xiao Yu walking towards the patient and shook his head, preparing to continue on to the Chinese medicine department. In the instant he turned his head, Old Yue suddenly discovered that Xiao Yu had actually reached out to touch the golden needle stuck in the patient's body.
"Stop!" Old Yue's angry shout rang out, and then he came back again.
The leaders next to him, seeing that Lao Yue was also helpless, let out a sigh of relief. Lao Yue had only given the patient a few injections, and since this was an acute cerebral hemorrhage case, giving a few injections wasn't excessive. As long as the patient didn't die in the hands of their Renhe Hall employees, they would have a way to shirk responsibility later on.
At this time, just seeing Xiao Ye move those few golden needles was a moment of joy, this is the best, in this way, no matter what, the patient's family will not be able to find any trouble with Renhe Hall.
So those doctors heard Yue Lao's angry shout and wanted to stop Xiao Yu, but they were quietly stopped by the leader-like person. He couldn't wait for Xiao Yu to move those few golden needles, and the patient would die immediately!
Xiao Yu walked up to the patient just as he was about to help Yue Lao complete the final step of the Five Elements Revival Needle. If it were a complete Five Elements Revival Needle, there might be a chance for him to hold on until the ambulance arrived. But suddenly, he heard Yue Lao's angry shout.
However, Xiao Yu didn't pay attention to him. The patient was now at the end of his life, and if he didn't take action soon, he would probably die immediately. Xiao Yu squatted down and used his fingers to lightly tap on the golden needles on Yue Lao's body one by one. The golden needles on the patient's body began to tremble, and then Xiao Yu opened the medical box and took out his own acupuncture package.
Yue Lao saw that Xiao Yu didn't stop after hearing his shout, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace. He knew that although he couldn't cure him now, he could still save his life. So when he saw Xiao Yu going to pull out the needle, he suddenly became anxious. This golden needle absolutely cannot be pulled out; if it is pulled out, this patient will probably die immediately. If it's not pulled out, he can still hold on for a while longer.
Just as Lao Yue was about to speak, he suddenly saw the faintly trembling golden needle on the patient's body, his eyes widened in shock, revealing an incredulous expression, and muttered: "Trembling needle... it's actually a trembling needle..."
Yue Lao didn't know the final step of Wu Xing Xu Ming Zhen, the Trembling Needle. However, he had heard his father describe its characteristics and his father had conducted countless experiments on animals based on these characteristics. But because he couldn't grasp the force and frequency of the Golden Needle's vibration, all the experiments ended in failure, and all the animals used in the experiments died after they were done. Therefore, Yue Lao's father made a rule that no one from the Yue family was allowed to experiment with or use the Trembling Needle until they had truly mastered it.
The leader and others who saw Xiao Yu didn't pull out the golden needle from Old Yue, felt a slight disappointment in their hearts. The returned Ph.D. student standing beside heard Old Yue's angry shout, saw Old Yue walking over, thought there would be some excitement to watch, but unexpectedly after Old Yue arrived, he stared at Xiao Yu like an idiot.
Xiao Yu ignored the crowd and took out his own golden needle, standing at the patient's head to prepare for treatment. The man who followed Old Yue saw that Xiao Yu did not stop after hearing Old Yue's words, and was about to grab Xiao Yu when he was stopped by a sharp glance from Old Yue.
At this time, the fellow only noticed that Yue Lao, who had just been furious, was now shocked and excited, which made him very surprised. He took a look at Xiao Ye, who was still calm, and retreated to behind Yue Lao with complicated emotions.
Yue Lao's current mood can be said to be very complicated. The family's entanglement for a lifetime, the trembling needle, actually has an heir. Who is this young man? What relationship does he have with the Xiao family?
He saw Xiao You standing at the patient's head, preparing to administer the injection. His instincts told him to reach out and stop him, but he thought better of it and decided against it. This young man might be trembling with the needle, perhaps there was another way.
At this time, Yue Lao no longer had any thoughts of underestimating Xiao Yu because of his youth. He had already elevated Xiao Yu to a position equal to his own. As for the rules of traditional Chinese medicine, these old doctors naturally understood them very well. The initial angry shout was just because they looked at Xiao Yu's young age and thought that even if he learned traditional Chinese medicine, he might not have graduated from his apprenticeship yet, so they would be like this.
However, at this time, seeing Xiao Yu as a real Chinese doctor, he knew that his previous actions were somewhat excessive, and he had already declared his incompetence. Xiao Yu was justified in pulling out his golden needle.
Besides, Xiao Yu's trembling of the Five Elements Revival Needle clearly showed his true identity as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. If he were to stop him again, he would be violating the rules of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. This rule is not determined by age. In ancient times, in the traditional Chinese medicine community, it was common for a 60- or 70-year-old elder to address a 20- or 30-year-old young person as "master". It's just that nowadays, people are impatient and few young people study traditional Chinese medicine, so Yue Lao naturally took Xiao Yu for a newcomer who had not yet entered the profession or was just starting out.
Xiao Yu stood at the patient's head, pulled out a golden needle and quickly inserted it into the patient's head, Xiao Yu's hands were like a butterfly dancing in flowers, lightly fluttering, and in an instant, eight golden needles were stuck on the patient's head.
Xiao Yu took out a golden needle again, stood at the patient's head, took a deep breath, and his expression was extremely serious. This time was different from before. This time, the needle had to be inserted into the patient's brain, and he couldn't afford to be careless for a moment.
Xiao Yu held the golden needle, crouched in front of the patient, aimed at the Baihui acupoint and slowly inserted it. When the golden needle entered the patient's head by one inch, Xiao Yu's hand paused slightly before releasing the needle.
At this time, the golden needle on the patient's heart had stopped trembling. Xiao Yu once again gently plucked it lightly, and when he finished plucking the golden needles on the heart, the golden needles on the liver also stopped jumping. Xiao Yu then plucked the remaining four golden needles one by one.
Seeing the trembling golden needles, Xiao Yu's hands moved in unison on the patient's head, and his fingers lightly plucked. When Xiao Yu plucked the golden needle at the patient's Baihui acupoint, a dark red blood flowed out drop by drop along the needle.
Seeing the dark blood flowing out, Xiao You finally let out a breath of relief. 'Hua Tuo's Nine Needles' was indeed not in vain, and with the addition of the Xiao family's needle technique, the effect was really good.
At this time, Yue Lao was already at a loss for words to describe his emotions. He never thought that the trembling needle could be used in such a way. The needling technique that Xiao You used on the patient's head earlier, although Yue Lao had not seen it before, he could also see that the technique was profound and did not fall under the complete Five Elements Revival Needles, and even surpassed it.
Xiao Yu waited until the golden needle on the patient's head stopped trembling, then pulled it out. He still knew that too much or too little was not good. So he timely withdrew the needle. For a patient with such a severe illness, it was impossible to cure him in one go. Now he had only saved his life.
Xiao Yu withdrew the needle, and not long after, the sound of an ambulance could be heard outside. The leader-like person couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the people on the ground were still alive. As long as they were alive, it was good.
Before long, an ambulance and a police car arrived at Renhe Tang Pharmacy. The nurse was amazed to see the golden needle on the patient's body, but suddenly thought that this was Renhe Tang, so it wasn't surprising after all. These days, TV had already reported that a Chinese medicine expert from Beijing came to Renhe Tang for consultation, and this golden needle should be his!
After the ambulance left, the police car stayed behind and made a record of the onlookers, the manager of Renhe Hall and the salesperson, inquiring about what had happened before leaving.
"Little brother, may I have a word with you?" Yue Lao asked Xiao Ye after the crowd had dispersed.
At this time, Yue Lao only thought that when he asked them who wrote the prescription earlier, the young man next to him said it was written by Xiao Ye, and he thought at the time that he didn't know where he got the prescription from. Now it seems that this prescription should have been written by this young man, and there's no need to look at the ginseng anymore, it must be wild mountain ginseng.
I don't know which great master taught this young man, but he is not only highly skilled in medicine, but also surprisingly proficient in the Sha family's needle technique.
"Ah, just in time, I also have some questions to ask you, old master!"
Xiao Yu responded with a sound, and actually Xiao Yu also had many questions to ask Yue Lao. In the letter from his father, it was said that all the relatives and disciples of the Xiao family died at that time. Then who did this old man in front of him learn the Five Elements Revival Needle from? Was it passed down by ancestors from previous generations?
Yue Lao took Xiao Yu to a small hall behind the Chinese medicine department, and Wei Jun naturally followed Xiao Yu. At this time, Wei Jun was still dizzy, although he knew that Xiao Yu's medical skills were powerful, but it was his first time seeing them in action. Was this really the same Xiao Yu who always ranked last in school?
Xiao Ye followed Yue Lao around the counter and came to a small hall, Xiao Ye did not expect that there was still such an exquisite small hall hidden here.
"Little brother, I was just messing with you earlier. I didn't expect your medical skills to be so extraordinary! Who did you learn from?"
At first, he thought Xiao Yu's calligraphy was good, but unexpectedly, Xiao Yu not only wrote well, but his medical skills were also extraordinary, and it was strange that Xiao Yu was too young.
Traditional Chinese medicine is something that generally requires at least ten years, or even several decades of accumulation to be proficient, but Xiao Ye is so young and has already achieved such a high level of skill, even surpassing his own in some aspects, such as acupuncture. Although he may not know other things, the fact that he can write prescriptions for tonics that are on par with his own, suggests that he must have been studying under a famous master since childhood to be able to achieve this at such a young age.
Of course, it's not that learning from a young age can reach this level. It requires good talent, hard work and dedication to study, and the guidance of a famous teacher, none of which can be missing.
Xiao Yu's medical theory actually came from his maternal grandfather, and the practice mainly came from Zhong Yi's memory. The combination of these two made Xiao Yu's current medical skills.
"Hehe, old man is overpraising! My medical skills were passed down from my family!" Xiao Yu didn't hide anything, nor was there a need to hide it. Moreover, he also wanted to know where Yue Lao's Five Elements Revival Needle came from.
"Then may I ask, young brother, which school of medicine did you learn from?" Yue Lao nodded his head, thinking to himself that he had indeed started learning medicine from a young age. He then continued to ask.
"Carry on, Xiao family!" Xiao Yu said with a serious face.
