Chapter 3 Golden Acupuncture Points

Qiu Wuhen took out the golden needle.

The needles used in modern acupuncture are stainless steel and silver needles, but in ancient times there was no such advanced technology and they were made of relatively soft copper. They looked yellow-orange, so they were called golden needles.

But he has never learned acupuncture at all. Now that Yao Gulu is talking about acupuncture, he believes that Yao Hulu will help.

Sure enough, when he looked at the patient, he was surprised to find that several of the acupuncture points listed on the medicine gourd on the patient's body were shining brightly, indicating the location of the acupoints.

As soon as Qiu Wuhen touched the golden needle to the shining acupuncture point, he saw a stream of white gas coming out of the medicine gourd and entering his palm along his arm. He controlled the golden needle in his hand and inserted it quickly and accurately.

Then, the white air follows the golden needle and enters the patient's acupoints.

"Ouch, ouch, sour...! Ouch... so swollen..., oh my god - eh, it doesn't hurt anymore? My stomach doesn't hurt anymore! Oops, it really doesn't hurt anymore, it's amazing!

"

The sick woman called out twice, stood up excitedly, and turned around several times while holding her belly.

His husband and mother-in-law were shocked. Isn't this too fast? When the gold needle was inserted, the pain stopped immediately. This was never heard before.

After other doctors use golden needles to pierce acupuncture points, they also use several methods, such as following the method to promote Qi, flicking to promote Qi, scraping to spread, shaking to conduct, as well as flying, trembling and other techniques to wait for the patient to get Qi.

After that, leave the needle for about a stick of incense, and then take it out to complete the process.

But this young doctor actually put a gold needle into the acupuncture point, and the pain stopped immediately, and the effect was immediate. Isn't this too weird?

Several patients and their family members were stunned. They had all had acupuncture, but they had never seen such a quick effect. They couldn't believe their eyes and muttered: "Is it true? Is it so miraculous?"

After all, the little fat man on the side is too young. He has never suffered from a disease that requires acupuncture before. Therefore, he has never had acupuncture before, so he has no intuitive experience, so he is not interested in the golden needle magic skill that Qiu Wuhen just showed.

It was shocking but I didn't have much insight into it. I just stood there in a daze, looking at this and that. I don't know why these people looked like they had seen a ghost.

Qiu Wuhen calmly sat back on the cracked mahogany chair and prepared to write a prescription.

But when he picked up the bamboo-stem brush with tangled hairs like tangled hair and was about to dip it into the frozen ink on the clay inkstone with a corner missing, he stopped again. For a moment, he slowly placed the brush again.

Back to Beacon Hill, which is made of dirt.

Because, he suddenly thought that he had never practiced calligraphy before time travel, and he had not inherited any memory of the poor scholar who had borrowed his corpse to resurrect his soul. Naturally, he did not know how to calligraphy. And this calligraphy requires the most effort, and it takes no more than three years and five years.

After practicing so hard, I just can't get it right.

If I force myself to write with a pen, I'm afraid what I write will be similar to chicken feet. Although the villagers in front of me are probably not very literate, calligraphy is like painting. Everyone can feel it with their eyes to some extent whether it has beauty or not.

What's more, have you never eaten pork and never seen a pig running?

They can see good calligraphy in places such as notices on the yamen screen, and of course they have seen ugly calligraphy, such as those written by children who were enlightened in private schools. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to see your own calligraphy like these children?

Appear?

These villagers all knew that they were talented people. They had passed the imperial examination and gained fame. How could they write such ugly calligraphy? That would cancel out the magic they had just created.

However, if this prescription is not written, people will have objections, so I have to find an excuse no matter what.

So he looked very embarrassed, glanced at a few people, and said: "I can give you medicine, but this medicine is passed down from my ancestors, my great-grandfather's great-grandfather. He is a famous miracle doctor. He once gave it to the emperor."

Relatives and relatives have all seen the doctor, and he passed it down as a family heirloom. The whole family regards this prescription as a treasure, so, this... is really inconvenient to write to you, please understand..."

"No need, Mr. Qiu, it's no use even if you write me a prescription. We can't read. Just get the medicine."

I should have told you earlier that it would be tiring to spend so much time trying to come up with excuses.

Qiu Wuhen breathed a sigh of relief and immediately stood up to grab the medicine.

After the poor scholar executed someone last time, in order to compensate the family of the deceased, the Su family sold all the not-so-valuable furniture in the old house, including clothes, bedding, etc., leaving the family with nothing but money. However, in order to open a medicine shop, they still saved money.

Jian Yu bought a tattered sycamore wood medicine cabinet from a flea market. Some of the medicine drawers couldn't even be pushed or pulled and could only be left half-open.

The name of the medicine was originally written in red pen on the surface of each drawer, but the medicine cabinet was too old, mottled and faded, and many of the words could not be read clearly. Although Qiu Wuhen had a prescription in his head, he could not see the handwriting.

He didn't know how to take the medicine because he didn't know these traditional Chinese medicine pieces at all.

He opened a drawer and saw that the drawer was separated by the word "tian". One drawer contained four kinds of Chinese medicine pieces. But he had never seen any of them. With a grimace, he asked the medicine gourd in his mind: "I don't know medicine.

what to do?"

The medicine gourd shook twice, and a line of words appeared: You check every drawer, and I will tell you what medicine it is.

Qiu Wuhen quickly agreed, and opened the drawers one by one to search. Every time he opened a drawer, the medicine gourd shook and displayed writing, indicating which four kinds of medicine were inside.

The entire medicine cabinet has a total of more than 150 compartments. The Su family had no money, so they only bought dozens of the most commonly used medicines, and only half of them were filled. Even so, they still spent a long time to fill them up one by one.

Found them all.

Qiu Wuhen turned to look at the villagers and found that they were staring at him as he rummaged through the cabinets, as if they didn't even know where the medicine was.

Qiu Wuhen smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I'm sorry, I took a nap and forgot where I put the medicine, so I'm going to look for it one by one and re-draw the writing on the drawer tomorrow so I don't have to search everywhere.

Already."

This excuse has been used by Qiu Langzhong just now, and the villagers all understood it and nodded with understanding. It doesn't matter if you find it slowly, slower is better, you can't go wrong.

Qiu Wuhen doesn't understand traditional Chinese medicine, but he has dealt with traditional Chinese medicine and watched movies and TV shows about traditional Chinese medicine, so he has seen how to pack medicine.

He followed suit and followed the prescriptions displayed on the medicine gourd, grabbing the medicines one by one, weighing them with a spoon, dividing them into several portions, and pouring them onto brown paper.

When all the medicines are collected, he checks the prescriptions one by one, then wraps them up, ties them tightly with a fine linen rope, strings them together, picks them up and hands them to the sick woman's husband, and says according to the doctor's instructions on the medicine gourd: "This is

Five days of medicine, one packet a day, boil three bowls of water into one bowl, take it twice in the morning and evening. The disease will stop immediately, no need to take more."

The sick woman and her husband both nodded. Her husband asked, "Should it be taken before or after meals?"

"Take it before meals, half an hour before breakfast and dinner."

"But, my family only eats one meal at noon."

"..."

It turns out that his family is not so miserable and can only eat one meal a day. Qiu Wuhen immediately found a balance. He felt that his wild vegetable soup and rice bran steamed buns were not so hard to swallow. Everyone was like this.

"It doesn't matter. You don't have to worry about meal times. Just eat once in the morning and once in the afternoon.

"Okay, how much does the medicine cost?"

"A pack of medicine costs three cents, a total of fifteen cents. My pharmacy does not charge for medical treatment, it only charges for the medicine."

"Okay. Thank you."
