Xie Wanqing, director of the Department of Cardiac Surgery, saw Gu Youran walking out with a cardboard box in her hands.
This reminds me of the emergency meeting held by the hospital’s top management last night.
She understood immediately.
In the eyes of hospital executives, when faced with a situation where their interests may be damaged.
No matter how skilled Gu Youran was in medicine, he was eventually abandoned.
For a moment, a hint of unconcealable pride flashed in her eyes.
The corners of his mouth curled up high, and he said sarcastically with a smile: "Hey, isn't this Doctor Gu!"
"You insisted on challenging Fujikawa Hiroki. Now you've even put your career at risk. How foolish!"
Gu Youran looked calm and looked at Xie Wanqing coldly.
"Director Xie, everyone has different pursuits. I fight for Traditional Chinese Medicine and have a clear conscience."
"Unlike you, always wasting your breath on these insignificant things."
The smile on Xie Wanqing's face froze, and then she sneered.
"A clear conscience? Stop flattering yourself. Do you think your challenge can change anything? You're just overestimating your own abilities."
"Look at you. For the sake of a vague reputation as a Chinese medicine practitioner, you lost your job and gained nothing."
"Look at me now. I have a solid position in the hospital and a good income. This is the real thing."
Gu Youran's eyes were filled with contempt, and she said mercilessly, "Xie Wanqing, you still have the nerve to mention a good income?"
"You probably don't know, Yunding Restaurant is my husband's business. Just this place, the daily turnover may be more than your annual income."
"This is just a drop in the bucket of his many assets. You work so hard in the hospital for that so-called stable position and meager income, but in our eyes, it's nothing but a joke."
"You think you can control the whole world by guarding this little piece of land, but in fact you are just sitting in a well and looking at the sky. It's ridiculous."
Xie Wanqing's face flushed crimson instantly, and she trembled with anger. She retorted loudly: "Humph, isn't it just a little bit of dirty money?"
"Does having money prove that challenging Fujikawa Hiroki isn't foolish? Does it mean it can change the current decline of Traditional Chinese Medicine? Don't fool yourself!"
Gu Youran looked indifferent and shook his head gently, his eyes full of pity, as if he was looking at an ignorant clown.
"Xie Wanqing, you are truly hopelessly narrow-minded. Do you think wealth is just a number to show off? It can give us more resources to do truly meaningful things, such as promoting Traditional Chinese Medicine."
"You, on the other hand, are short-sighted. You only know how to be sarcastic and judge everything with your poor knowledge."
"You know, people like you are not even a supporting role in the world of Shi Heng and me."
"I challenged Fujikawa Hiroki to pass on the millennia-old Chinese medicine culture and for the hope of countless patients. You will never understand this mission in your lifetime."
"Just continue to be complacent in your little world and don't embarrass yourself by coming out."
Xie Wanqing's lips trembled violently. She wanted to say something to refute, but she found that her throat seemed to be choked by something and she couldn't utter a word.
Her eyes widened, filled with anger and unwillingness, and her face turned from red to white.
It was as if all the strength had been drained from him, and he stood there in a daze.
She watched Gu Youran holding the cardboard box and walking past her with his head held high.
At this moment, Gu Youran's cell phone suddenly rang.
The caller ID showed Lu Henian.
She quickly answered the call and heard Lu Henian's anxious voice on the other end.
"Teacher, is it convenient for you to come to Henian Chinese Medicine Clinic now? I have something extremely important to discuss with you."
Although Gu Youran was full of doubts, she immediately responded, "Mr. Lu, please don't be so polite. I'll be right over."
Hang up the phone.
Thirty minutes later.
Gu Youran drove to the "Henian Chinese Medicine Clinic".
Lu Henian, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, rushed forward to greet her when he saw her, "Teacher, I've been waiting for you to come."
Gu Youran quickly supported Lu Henian and said, "Mr. Lu, you are old, and you are still standing at the door waiting for me. I really feel bad. What is the important matter that made you look for me so anxiously?"
Lu Henian smiled and pulled Gu Youran to the back.
Enter the inner room.
He took out an antique wooden box and slowly opened it. Inside lay a row of golden needles, which shone with an ancient luster under the soft light.
"Teacher, this set of 'Qian Kun Ji Shi Needles' is an ancestral heirloom of my Lu family. The forging technique is unique and cannot be compared to ordinary gold needles." Lu Henian introduced solemnly, "This set of gold needles consists of nine in total, divided into four categories."
He gently picked up a golden needle and said, "This one, the longest, is about seven inches long. It's called the 'Zhengyang Golden Needle,' and there's only one. The needle is thick and engraved with intricate sun patterns. This needle has the strongest yang energy and can stimulate the body's deep yang energy. It's often used to treat critical illnesses and awaken the body's vitality."
He then picked up two five-inch-long gold needles. "These are called 'Golden Regulating Needles.' They're of moderate thickness and engraved with yin-yang patterns. They can harmonize the body's vital energy and balance yin and yang. They're crucial for regulating the internal organs and strengthening the foundation. They complement each other, and their effectiveness is even greater when used together."
Lu Henian then picked up three three-inch-long gold needles. "These three 'Dongluo Golden Needles' have slightly thinner bodies and are engraved with winding vein patterns. They are mainly used to dredge the meridians, guide the flow of Qi and blood, and keep the meridians unobstructed. Each needle can act on the meridians in different parts of the body. Using all three together can cover the main meridian systems of the human body."
Finally, he pointed to three one-inch-long gold needles. "These three extremely slender needles are 'micro-needles.' Intricate star-shaped patterns are engraved on the needles. They are used to precisely stimulate acupuncture points, leveraging the body's circulation with tiny forces. They are miraculous in treating subtle ailments. Don't underestimate them because they are short and slender, but they can play a crucial role in the smallest of moments."
As he spoke, Lu Henian picked up a yellowed ancient book from the side and continued, "This is the secret manual of acupuncture for the 'Qian Kun Ji Shi Zhen'. It records the methods and techniques of acupuncture in detail."
He sighed slightly and said with a hint of regret, "Our ancestors devoted all their efforts to developing only thirteen acupuncture techniques. However, it is said that those with extremely high comprehension abilities can comprehend hundreds of variations from these thirteen techniques."
Gu Youran looked at the golden needles and secret manual in front of him, his eyes filled with surprise and emotion. He quickly said, "Mr. Lu, this is truly too valuable. I..."
Lu Henian quickly waved his hand, interrupting her and said sincerely, "Teacher, please don't refuse."
"For the sake of Traditional Chinese Medicine, you didn't hesitate to challenge Fujikawa Hiroki. This sense of responsibility and courage is truly admirable."
"Although I am old, I still want to do my part. I hope this set of needles and acupuncture techniques can help you when you face challenges."
At this moment, the voice of apprentice Xiao Yang came from outside the door.
"Master, there is a patient outside."
Lu Henian responded, turned to Gu Youran and said, "Teacher, I'll be out for a while."
After saying this, he turned around and hurried out of the inner room.
Gu Youran sat at the desk, carefully reading the secret book, and the more he read, the more shocked he became.
It turns out that the contents of this secret book are actually related to...
