Chapter 003: A Needle Pierces Down!

No.

Xia Chuqii proudly curled her lower lip, yet she did not explain to him, only lowering her head to pat his shoulder

On the seventh day of early summer, a conditioned reflex occurs, raising the head and clenching both fists

Be honest, if you make a mistake, I will not take any responsibility for it

You, you you... what kind of sorcery did you use? You witch

The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon

Who are you, exactly?

Oh, sir, what happened to your hand? Come on, come on, come and hit me

Acupuncture anesthesia, also known as "needle anesthesia," is a method of local anesthesia that originated in the year 1958. Although it had become an obsolete relic in her previous life, for those who are still unaware of what dynasty they are in, it is undoubtedly a rare and unheard-of novelty, far surpassing their medical technology by ten streets.

In the spirit of "A doctor's heart is like that of a parent, but a doctor is indifferent to death," she quickly tended to his wounds, sniffed the ointment dressing handed over by Old Sun, and carefully applied it to his swollen injuries. After that, she used a cloth strip boiled in medicinal solution to bandage him while instructing Old Sun at the same time

Neither will it

Old Sun let out a heavy grunt, "If you are skilled in medicine, recite the 'Huangdi Neijing' for me to hear"

What reason does the old man have to believe ... ... ah!

She pouted slightly, but smiled and shook her head, "No."

A harsh clang echoed, and before she could close her mouth, she felt a chill on her neck as a sharp sword affectionately kissed her skin. The blade was slender, its surface shimmering like flowing water, and the tip was sharp, exuding a fierce sword energy that seemed to glimmer with a faint blood light, clearly a fine sword that had taken lives and tasted blood.

Fortunately, there are still a few silver needles available

Ah, encountering me is a blessing for your ancestors!

Xia Chuqii unceremoniously let out a loud sneeze, wiped his mouth, and smiled slyly

Endorsement? ... She would say her greatest strength ... ? ... is her exceptional memory?

In the early summer of the seventh day, with a flutter of excitement, I relaxed my grip, and my attitude became more composed. ... Holding the needle handle, I pricked the large shuttle, the Hall of Sealing the Gods, and aimed for the Supreme Yang ... . ... With deftness, I flew the needle to the acupoints, piercing with the needle tip, the needle body entering the flesh, skillfully directing several silver needles.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, Xia Chuqii stood up, patted her backside, and smiled playfully.

"Miss Ke, I can do it, but you definitely cannot..."

Ignoring the old man's flushed face, she went straight over to rummage through the medical instruments in his medicine box. Indeed, times have changed, and these medical instruments were quite shabby, causing her, a legitimate heir of an ancient medical family, to feel a sense of frustration akin to that of a "clever woman finding it hard to cook without rice"

The man stood still, like a statue

My life is essentially equivalent to your esteemed life, isn't it? Let us not forget that the two of us are now united... No, we are like grasshoppers tied to the same string!

Is it no longer painful here

Acupuncture anesthesia

"Treatise on Febrile Diseases"

Shouldn't he say, "You little tormenting fairy," and then take out gold to swat her away? How could it be like this

With a cry of despair, how could Old Sun have anticipated that she would suddenly strike? In terror, he looked at the two silver needles embedded in his shoulder, and in a fit of rage, he wanted to raise his hand to slap her, but how could his arm be lifted again?

Zheng——

... ...

This groundbreaking anesthetic method, unique to my family alone under heaven, do you think you have stumbled upon a stroke of good fortune

Between the two individuals, there was only the sound of the wind.

Aren't you just pretending to be calm? It will hurt you to death, let's see how long you can hold on

With a smile and raised eyebrows, Xia Chuqii pretended not to know

Xia Chuqii's tense heart finally returned to its rightful place, letting out a sigh of relief at how close it was to danger

Boring and uninteresting! Are you ignoring me? Let me show you the power of my Golden Seal Divine Needle

Achoo

young children

How?

He seems accustomed to using this commanding and domineering cold language. A pair of icy black eyes, as cold as an ancient well, slightly squinting, as if born to be superior, seemingly ready to shoot out fine, piercing needles like a torrential rain, penetrating into the crevices of one's bones, impossible to expel, dissolve, or extract, ... intangible ...

Hand, an old and decrepit hand... You bold little girl!

Suturing? Unraveling?

Her voice carried the unique softness of a young girl, yet the words that rolled off her lips were hardly those of a proper young lady

She tightened her face, twisted the needle, and then, with a "professional" demeanor, she plunged it into his shoulder well point...

The beginning of summer on the seventh day has lost its vigor

"Old man, old man..." The old man once again knocked his head several times with a loud thud, speaking with great emotion, almost to the point of expressing his intent to hang himself in protest. "Sir, even if you want to take the old man's head, I absolutely cannot agree! Our dynasty has advanced medical skills, and renowned doctors are indeed found throughout the world, but which young heir of a medical family dares to call himself a divine doctor at such a young age? Moreover, he is just a mere child who has not yet outgrown his infancy?"

The two words "cold" immediately silenced the two individuals who were arguing incessantly.

However, the silver needle has already sunk halfway in; no matter what insidious tricks she employs to retaliate while treating and saving others, that great iceberg shows no more reaction than the slight rise and fall of its broad shoulders.

Unexpectedly, the old man who had been watching for a long time suddenly knelt down with a thud

Oh, then tell me, what must be done for you to believe

In early summer, Qiqian could endure anything, but she could not tolerate others questioning her medical skills

"Then what books can you recite? What abilities do you possess?" The old man spoke with a tone that was almost disdainful

She suddenly asked, and he merely responded with a vague "um".

Old Sun

"Alright, I, the Prime Minister, can tolerate much and will not argue with you over trivial matters." Xia Chuqii lazily withdrew the silver needle, displaying a sweet smile, and met the deep gaze beneath the brows of that great iceberg.

... ...

"That's it, just like that! We've paid the consultation fee, now let's each go back to our own homes..."

For some reason, she suddenly felt a kind of toughness in him that was characteristic of a soldier

The person furrowed their brows, their tone ominous, already implying a warning

Iron Man! Do you really not know pain

Seeing his startled expression, Xia Chuqii's medical ethics transcended time and space. She understood that due to the limited medical conditions and technology in ancient times, doctors were not knowledgeable about wound suturing, resulting in countless unnecessary deaths. Being a good person to the end, she thoroughly explained the benefits and precautions of wound suturing to Old Sun, speaking until her throat was dry. The pain and discomfort from her own injuries surged back, leaving her with no energy to continue speaking, and she weakly waved her hand while sitting on the reed stalks.

Well, if I must point out any shortcomings... it is that...! ... this is also her first time administering anesthesia!

Grandfather, it is absolutely out of the question! How can your esteemed self allow this wild girl to treat you?

Having seemingly scrutinized enough, he suddenly unfastened his cloak, sat down, and revealed the wound on his back

The prescription proposed by the young lady is something I have never heard of before; could you kindly enlighten me on a few points? The old man was dazzled and his attitude became considerably more respectful

Humming a little tune softly, she wore a sly smile at the corners of her lips, resembling a little chick with damp feathers, one foot bare and the other clad in a wet brown hemp shoe. Her clothes were tattered, her figure slender, and her skin somewhat dark, possessing a hint of delicate charm but certainly not the striking beauty of a stunning woman. However, the radiance emanating from her small face, as she skillfully wielded a silver needle, was so luminous with confidence that it shone like an exquisite pearl, leaving the old man, who had seen over fifty years, utterly dumbfounded.

Note: 3.7 grams of Sanqi and raw gypsum powder each, 3.3 grams of yellow lead and white angelica, 1.3 grams of mint each, add 1 gram of musk and grind into powder for external application, change once a day. Additionally, 2 grams of Duhuo, 1.5 grams of raw rehmannia, and white lily for internal use for 7 days, to promote tissue regeneration, stop bleeding, and reduce inflammation and pus.

"The ancestral secret art is only passed down to descendants!" Xia Chuqii glanced at his suddenly stiffened old face and continued, "However, who told me that I have a good heart? There is a crucial point I can share with you: for wounds like this, it is best to use silk thread for suturing, and wait for it to heal before removing the stitches"

Uh ... ...

She took out the silver needle and blew on it, then patted Old Sun's shoulder

Raise your head

"Sir, how about I give your grandfather a shot?"

In order to seize the opportunity to earn some consultation fees and make her first fortune in this world, Xia Chuqii spared no effort in extolling her medical skills from macro to micro, from positive to negative, and from superficial to profound, repeatedly implying that this favor was greater than the mountains and deeper than the seas. Unfortunately, no matter how much she chattered, the person remained like a silent statue, offering no response whatsoever

However, in any case, if she dies, it is not her who will have to bury herself

"Sir, it is your turn! Today, you are fortunate to encounter this divine physician, so let me show you the power of acupuncture anesthesia."

Enough
