Chapter 304 Visiting Relatives
Chen Kexin thought of Song Mo, and the feeling of reluctance lingered in her heart. She said firmly: "Uncle Master, don't be angry, I want to try."
The white-headed old man looked at her strangely and asked, "Visiting relatives, are you going to see that brat?"
Chen Kexin remembered that Song Mo had been to the pharmacy. Master Bai knew that this was normal, so he nodded slightly and said, "Yes!"
The old man said disdainfully in his heart: "At such a young age, you are still indulging in love affairs. What a promising future!"
Chen Kexin didn't know what to say and could only lower her head and remain silent.
The old man pointed at the thick ancient book on the table and a box next to it with a dark face and said, "Open them and start from the first one."
Chen Kexin opened it obediently and saw that the book was full of acupuncture methods.
Each of the acupoints is described in detail.
I opened the paper box next to it and saw a one-foot-long plastic human body model inside.
She took out a silver needle from the acupuncture box and tentatively inserted it into the Taichong point on the human body model. Soon she felt the needle in her hand was blocked, and it almost bent when she pushed so hard.
She suddenly became nervous, "This..."
He looked at his uncle with questioning eyes for an explanation.
While demonstrating, the old man said in a teaching tone: "You hold the silver needle too close. Your fingertips should be on this part of the silver needle. The force should be applied to the silver needle through your fingertips..."
Chen Kexin corrected the position of her hands in time, and after trying several times, she finally mastered how to use force.
After she had inserted all the silver needles into the mannequin, she looked up at her uncle and asked for praise.
After checking, Bai Tou Weng frowned and said unhappily, "This set of silver needles is either too deep or too shallow. Each acupuncture point has a suitable depth range for acupuncture. For example, Shangyang acupoint, Guanchong acupoint, etc., because the meridians are relatively shallow, it is not suitable to be too deep, usually 0.1-0.2 inches. For acupuncture points such as Huantiao acupoint and Zhibian acupoint, because the muscles are thick, they can be inserted appropriately deep, and the depth is usually 1.5-2 inches. Look carefully in the book, there are markings next to the acupuncture points."
Only then did Chen Kexin notice the small words next to the acupoints in the book.
It was like a wake-up call, and she was a little dumbfounded.
I thought it would be enough to remember the more than 300 acupuncture points on the human body, but I also have to remember the depth of the needle. This is too difficult!
You choose your own path, so keep going even if you have to crawl on your knees!
Seeing that she was devastated, the white-headed old man continued calmly, "I think you have a good memory. I wanted to give you a month to learn acupuncture. Since you think seven days is enough, go back and think about it carefully. You don't need to come these few days. Figure out your skills. Come back on Monday afternoon. I want to test you."
Chen Kexin put the silver needles, ancient books and human body models in her schoolbag and walked out of Tong Ren Tang Pharmacy in a daze.
I took the bus home and gradually calmed down as the vehicle swayed. I had memorized all the acupoints and should have no problem remembering the depth of the needles.
Moreover, the depth of acupuncture can be determined by following traces, unlike each acupoint which must be memorized by heart.
My master said that the needles should be inserted deeper where the muscles are thicker, and shallower where the meridians are shallow.
Thinking of this, she suddenly gained confidence.
I soon realized that my uncle said I didn't need to come these days and could come back next Monday.
I couldn't help but feel moved. Was my master being soft-hearted and letting me off?
All you have to do is remember the depths of all the needle insertions and understand the contents of this book thoroughly before next Monday.
My mood suddenly changed from gloomy to bright. It was clear that although my uncle spoke sternly, he was actually soft-hearted.
Well, she could just go visit her relatives tomorrow and come back at the weekend.
Of course, we cannot relax in the army these days and must seize the time to study.
When she got off the bus in a good mood, she saw a telephone booth in front of her and stopped.
I called Song Mo on the landline at home last night, but he wasn't there. He should be there at this time, right?
To be honest, she didn't want to use her grandfather's landline to make calls, as she felt she was taking advantage of the public.
Now, she has enough money, so she doesn't want someone to talk behind her back if the phone bill is high at the end of the month.
There is no way to answer the phone at home.
She decisively bought a phone card nearby and dialed the number she had memorized.
After a long while, someone finally answered the phone, and a familiar voice came, "Who are you looking for?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Chen Kexin said excitedly: "Song Mo, it's me!"
"Wife, how are you? Is everything okay at home? Grandpa told me about that."
Although Song Mo's words were very obscure, Chen Kexin understood what he meant and said, "You have to work hard. I have a few books that I want you to read. I want to send them to you when I visit my relatives."
"Okay, when will you come?"
Chen Kexin asked excitedly: "Can we go there tomorrow?"
"Okay, you can come here in the logistics vehicle tomorrow. Be careful on the road."
Chen Kexin thought about the fact that her transaction was being targeted, opened her mouth, and said on the phone that this was really inconvenient. The logistics vehicle didn't pick up anything when it came to her small courtyard today, and she would not go there tomorrow.
He asked tentatively: "Song Mo, is the logistics vehicle still waiting for people at the original place?"
Song Mo said puzzledly: "Wife, why are you asking this? Just wait in the small courtyard."
Chen Kexin racked her brains to come up with an excuse and patiently explained, "I want to go to the place where I was waiting for the bus to do something tomorrow. I don't want to go back to the small courtyard."
Song Mo believed it and said, "Yes, the logistics vehicle is still in the same place."
Chen Kexin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, I'll bring some more food."
"I'm waiting for you!"
After ending the call, Chen Kexin felt better. She found a place where no one was around and took out a lot of food from the space.
I am going to visit my relatives in the army tomorrow, so I have to prepare more food at home.
So she walked into the compound carrying the heavy things.
As soon as I walked into the compound, I saw Xiao Tingting coming towards me.
Chen Kexin thought of her family's unanimous decision to stay away, so she took the initiative to move to the side of the road, put down her things, and wanted to wait for the other party to pass before continuing to move forward.
The road in the residential area is more than two meters wide because it can accommodate vehicles.
When Xiao Tingting saw her, she snorted disdainfully, then walked over and said in a bossy manner, "Mr. Chen, let me tell you something. Only 20 people passed the last graduation exam. You definitely didn't pass. It's really embarrassing."
Chen Kexin felt amused. It would be really embarrassing if she failed the exam even though she got first place.
Besides, Principal Liu has connections with the middle school, so something like this would never happen.
She held back her anger, calmly praised the other person and said, "Congratulations on getting your high school diploma!"
Xiao Tingting raised her head even higher and said arrogantly, "You are a country bumpkin like you and you want to compete with me? Don't dream!"
Chen Kexin continued to compliment the other party, "Miss Xiao is amazing!"
"That's good to know!"
Xiao Tingting said this triumphantly, and then she kicked Chen Kexin's bag on the roadside with her little leather shoes as if to vent her anger.
The human model placed in the topmost paper box slid to the ground due to the force.
This is an adult male human model. He is naked and has more than 300 acupuncture points marked on his body in various colors. His legs are smooth and have no obvious male features.
Xiao Tingting stared at the human body model, as if she had seen some ferocious beast, and screamed in surprise.
"ah……"
The voice was high and loud, with twists and turns.
Chen Kexin complained strongly in her heart: This guy has a good voice, it's a pity that he doesn't sing!
