There are nine kinds of ancient silver needles: large needle, long needle, fine needle, sharp needle, round needle, chisel needle, hock needle, beryllium needle, and round-sharp needle; this box of silver needles includes all of them.
Each type has different thicknesses and is suitable for different lesions and acupuncture methods.
This was the first time that Li Benyuan had seen such a complete set of silver needles.
He swallowed, suppressed his greed and jealousy, and said sarcastically: "I have heard that there is an old saying in China: If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools; the little girl's tools are well prepared, but I wonder if her skills are worthy of this set of treasures?"
When Xie Wan was doing acupuncture, she didn't want to talk to anyone, but Li Benyuan came up to her and mocked her for being a "bad student with too many stationery". Xie Wan felt that if she didn't say something to him, she would be unhappy, so she pulled out a long needle, shook it in front of Li Benyuan's eyes and said:
"Dr. Li Ben, you have heard a lot of ancient sayings. Have you ever heard of the saying "the grapes are sour"?
What is this needle called? Do you know it? Even if you know it, can you use it? "
Li Benyuan smiled hypocritically to ease the embarrassment: "Of course I know this is a long needle, modeled after the Qi needle, seven inches long, and is mainly used to treat deep evil and distant numbness.
However, it is extremely difficult to control the strength and accuracy of this needle, and it cannot be used properly without more than ten years of acupuncture experience.
I have to say this beforehand, I have only been learning acupuncture for a year, so I naturally do not know how to use long needles."
Xie Wan laughed contemptuously and said, "You also know that long needles are used to treat deep evil and distant numbness.
If you know how to use long needles, then the best choice for the patient with bone arthritis is to use long needles to probe the acupoints. Do you know that?"
The smile on Li Benyuan's face finally disappeared.
Of course he knew that long needles were best for patients with bone arthritis, but using long needles required entirely reliance on the hidden power in the hands to vibrate the deep affected area.
Damn it, in the entire Li Hai family, only his father, who has been practicing acupuncture for decades, has been able to develop such hidden power.
The little girl in front of him took out a long needle and said to him, what the hell is this!
If you have the ability, use it!
I'm convinced if you can use a long needle!
Of course, he would not say it so rudely. Li Benyuan said, "There is no point in talking more. Let me see your long needle probing acupuncture points, little girl?"
Xiao Chengyan quickly chimed in, saying, "For the Yongquan, Taichong, Yinbai, and Dazhong acupoints, you don't need to use long needles, fine needles will do."
For beginners, filiform needles are generally used.
What Li Benyuan used just now was a filiform needle.
Xiao Chengyan was worried that Xie Wan would act on impulse and be forced by Li Benyuan to use a long needle.
If you don't have enough hidden strength in your hands to use this long needle, it's better to use a fine needle.
Although using the wrong needles on these acupoints on the foot will not cause death, there will still be side effects if something goes wrong.
If the meridians nearby are affected, it may make the patient unable to walk, which would be a serious problem.
Xiao Chengyan spoke out only to protect Xie Wan.
Xie Wan understood his good intentions, smiled at Xiao Chengyan, and said politely: "Teacher Xiao, don't worry, I am sure."
The patient was already anxious and restless due to his special condition. When he saw the long needle in Xie Wan's hand, he asked in panic, "Doctor, does it hurt when you prick me with such a big needle?
I'm afraid this needle of yours is used to give injections to cows?
Can you change to a thinner one?"
Xie Wan put on a calm and serious expression and said, "Do you want to sleep peacefully every day? Or do you want to be like the patient that Dr. Li Ben just treated next to you, and have a relapse tomorrow and continue to suffer from insomnia?"
The old lady glared and said, "Of course I have to cure it! Why, the bigger the needle, the better the effect?"
Xie Wan didn't want to answer her. It wasn't that the bigger the needle, the better the effect. It was just that the acupuncture method she wanted to use had to be used with a large needle.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the old aunt thought she agreed.
He sighed, took off his socks with a fearless attitude, lay down, closed his eyes and said, "Come on! It's better to feel the pain than to be unable to sleep every night."
Xie Wan's hands were as fast as the wind. He inserted the needle into the Yongquan point, pushing it in three times and withdrawing it once. A burning air rushed into the sole of the foot, and the old aunt moaned with comfort.
Xiao Chengyan was shocked: "Ancient method of burning volcanoes?"
There were also several Chinese medicine experts present, and they just watched Xie Wan and Li Benyuan bickering for fun.
A young man performing acupuncture was not a big deal for them, so they just stood at a distance, being polite. Some people watched in silence, while others talked about other things.
Suddenly hearing Xiao Chengyan's exclamation, everyone looked over.
Ancient method of burning volcanoes?
This is the ultimate skill in acupuncture.
How is that possible?
An old Chinese medicine doctor who was over fifty years old rebuked Xiao Chengyan with some displeasure: "Director Xiao, are you kidding me? Not to mention that burning volcanoes is almost a lost art, even if there are still a few old men who know this skill, it took them thirty or forty years to learn how to burn volcanoes. What are you yelling about?"
Xiao Chengyan had no time to refute the old Chinese doctor's words.
His eyes were fixed on Xie Wan, not wanting to miss even a second.
He was sure that Xie Wan was using the Fire Mountain Needle Method!
"First, move the Nine Yangs, enter at five points, and then advance when you get the energy. Gradually advance within an inch, and then retreat three times... It is really the ancient method of burning a volcano!"
Xiao Chengyan's expression already looked a little crazy.
During his lifetime, he was able to witness with his own eyes the ancient technique of burning volcanoes.
Burning Fire Mountain is a method of warming and nourishing in acupuncture. When acupuncture is performed, hidden force enters the acupoint and relies on the doctor's breath to nourish the patient.
It is very effective in treating symptoms of deficiency and cold.
Unfortunately, there are very few people who can learn this method nowadays.
Zhu Qilin's face was also filled with shock.
He knew that Xie Wan was the successor of Chunfutang, so his acupuncture skills must be very good.
