"Is the acupuncture bronze man the one made in the Northern Song Dynasty?" Su Jinyue asked.
The bronze acupuncture figures she was inquiring about were created in the fifth year of the Tiansheng reign of the Qing Dynasty under the supervision of Wang Weiyi, a specialist in acupuncture and moxibustion. Two were cast. They depict a nude young man, lifelike in length and size, with internal organs fitted to resemble a real person's physiology. The limbs and internal organs are detachable. Three hundred and fifty-four acupuncture points are engraved on the outside, with their names marked in gold lettering.
At that time, by order of Emperor Song Renzong, one bronze acupuncture figurine was placed in the palace for appreciation; the other was sent to the Medical Officers' Institute to serve as a model for acupuncture teaching and as a tool for testing the acupuncture skills of medical students and practitioners. However, the whereabouts of both figurines have since disappeared. It is said that they were looted by the Allied Forces during the late Qing Dynasty.
"It's one of the two bronze acupuncture figures. It is said that a Japanese doctor obtained the bronze acupuncture figure thirty years ago. He has kept it at home. He was willing to take it out this time because of a bet. It was because of that bet that he was willing to take out the bronze acupuncture figure as a prize for this exchange competition." Chen Zhenghai said after taking a sip of tea.
"What bet?" Su Jinyue asked curiously.
"The director of the Chinese Medicine Hospital, He Tian, once studied in Japan, and happened to be a classmate of the Japanese doctor. When Director He went to Japan to attend a medical exchange meeting last year, he met the doctor. Director He knew that the doctor had an acupuncture bronze man, so he deliberately provoked the doctor. He also bet that even if our doctors were blindfolded, they could still give acupuncture faster and more accurately than the Japanese doctors who could do it with their eyes open. The doctor was naturally dissatisfied, so he bet with Director He that if our doctors could give acupuncture with their eyes blindfolded and could exceed the speed and accuracy of the doctors in their country, he would return the acupuncture bronze man to my country. As soon as the news came out, other countries also requested to be able to participate in this exchange competition. So in addition to the bronze man, this time the prize also includes a bonus of 50,000 yuan." Chen Zhenghai said.
"I'll join. Give me three more spots," Su Jinyue said. She planned to select three people from the Medical Valley to go to Japan with her.
"No problem." Chen Zhenghai said happily.
"And I need two days off," Su Jinyue said. She planned to go to Japan tonight to wipe out the organization that wanted to capture her, so that she wouldn't be harassed by those people like flies when she attended the medical exchange meeting.
"No problem," Chen Zhenghai replied with a smile. As long as Jin Yue agreed to attend the medical exchange meeting, he would agree to anything. Besides, with Jin Yue's medical skills, she wouldn't have any problem taking the exam and getting her diploma directly.
Seeing Su Jinyue return to the classroom, the classmates looked at her with curiosity, admiration, inquiry and disbelief.
"Su Jinyue, I heard that you are a military doctor. Is that true?"
"If you're a military doctor, why are you still attending school?"
"No wonder she was so good at dissecting in anatomy class."
Su Jinyue walked to her seat and sat down. Qian Moli came over and asked, "Teacher Shen said you were a military doctor. Is that true?"
"Yeah." Su Jinyue nodded.
"Then why are you still attending school?" Qian Moli asked curiously. Didn't they apply to medical school just to become doctors?
"It's always good to learn more." Su Jinyue said with a smile.
Qian Moli nodded in agreement, "No wonder you have achieved what you have today." Only when a person constantly wants to make progress can he gain more.
Looking at Qian Moli chatting and laughing with Su Jinyue, Lin Muzhu's heart was filled with envy and regret. If she hadn't targeted Su Jinyue, she could also chat and laugh with Su Jinyue like this now. She didn't know how many people would secretly envy her, but now she could only look at Qian Moli and Su Jinyue with envy.
Su Jinyue didn't breathe a sigh of relief until school was over. This afternoon, people kept coming to ask her all kinds of questions. They all wanted to know how she became a military doctor.
After packing up, Su Jinyue and Qian Moli walked out of the classroom.
"Su Jinyue." Lin Muzhu called out to Su Jinyue.
Su Jinyue stopped and turned to look at Lin Muzhu. She didn't understand why Lin Muzhu still called her when things had gotten so bad between them.
Lin Muzhu bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm sorry! I misunderstood you before. I hope you can forgive me." She really hopes that she and Su Jinyue can go back to the way they were before and be friends again.
Su Jinyue smiled faintly and walked out of the classroom. She had never cared about Lin Muzhu, so how could she care about what she did? Since she didn't care, there was no question of forgiveness.
Lin Muzhu looked at Su Jinyue's back, his eyes filled with endless regret.
In the darkness of the night, a figure flew quickly across the sky and soon disappeared.
Su Jinyue lowered the flying sword and landed in a courtyard full of Japanese atmosphere. There was a man-made pond in the courtyard. The rocks, green grass and trees beside the pond blended into a pleasing scenery.
Su Jinyue looked at the wooden house in front of her. At this moment, the sound of musical instruments could be heard from inside. Through the layers of wooden walls, she saw two middle-aged men in dark gray kimonos sitting on the tatami and drinking in one of the rooms. In front of them, a geisha holding a fan was dancing to the music.
Su Jinyue casually set up a formation and walked towards the house.
Yumiyama Yelang looked at the geisha in front of him, and on a whim, he stood up shakily, walked towards the geisha, and danced with her to the music.
The wooden door was suddenly opened, and Gongshan Yelang and Tanaka Fengtai were both stunned. After seeing Su Jinyue's appearance clearly, they burst into laughter.
"Are you Su Jinyue?" Gongshan Yelang looked at Su Jinyue with a smile, rubbing his nose with satisfaction. It seemed that his subordinates were quite capable, bringing the person here so quickly. But why didn't anyone come to report?
"Don't you want to catch me? That's why I came here." Su Jinyue curled her lips and looked at the two of them playfully.
"What do you mean? Did you come here on your own?" Tanaka Fengtai suddenly lost his mood to drink, put away his smile, and looked at Su Jinyue with a frown. He had indeed not received any news from his subordinates, nor had he received any news of Su Jinyue's entry. But how did she get here?
"How did you get here? Why didn't we receive any news? Where are the men we sent?" Gongshan Yelang asked several questions in a row.
"Of course I flew here. As for your men, I sent them to a good place. But don't worry, I will send you there soon." Su Jinyue looked at the two of them jokingly.
