Wenwen shook her head. What a damaging yet ingenious poison. One had to admire the person who developed it; he was truly a genius.
He Hongchi looked at his apprentice's expression, a mixture of pity and admiration. "Don't you admire the person who developed such a wonderful poison? Perhaps the developer's original intention wasn't to harm anyone? He was simply being exploited by someone with ulterior motives."
Wenwen listened to He Hongchi's words and said, "I didn't expect this level. I always thought that the person who developed the poison needed to use it to harm people. I never thought that it might be his descendants, or that it was being used by people with bad intentions."
Whether in ancient times or modern times, people who do research generally have simple minds. Researchers rarely come into contact with the outside world and usually only focus on doing research, which makes it easy for them to develop a simple and trusting character.
Hao Hehongchi nodded and smiled, "Master has a Poison Scripture in his hand. Do you want to learn it? If you want to learn it, I will give it to you."
Wenwen shook her head. "I'd better not learn it. What's the point of learning the Poison Sutra? In ancient times, girls who learned it could dominate the backyard. Now it's a modern society, who would dare to use poison? The instrument can detect it immediately. Not all poisons are as sophisticated as the Misleading Beauty."
He Hongchi gently tapped her head. "I told you that medicine and poison are inseparable. Sometimes poison isn't necessarily used to harm people. Who knows, you might need to use it in a case. It won't hurt to learn it. I didn't say you should use it to harm people. I've learned it myself, too. Would I use it to harm people?"
Wenwen was very surprised. "Master, do you know a lot of poison recipes? Do you really need to learn? Then learn it. Master, you are right. Many skills are always a burden. As long as I don't use them to harm others, it will be fine."
He Hongchi nodded in satisfaction.
At this time, the congressman and his wife had finished their medicinal bath and were waiting in the room for the master and apprentice to give them acupuncture.
He Hongchi placed the silver needles on the table and said to Wenwen, "Watch me perform acupuncture for a while. If you feel confident, you can perform acupuncture on Mrs. Ding."
Wenwen nodded, and she watched every step of He Hongchi carefully.
He Hongchi was seen massaging the sixteen acupuncture points using pressing, kneading and pressing techniques. This was beneficial for acupuncture and helped to promote blood circulation during acupuncture.
He Hongchi picked up the silver needle and disinfected it. "Because this is acupuncture for detoxification, it's different from regular acupuncture. We can't get the needle in right away. Acupuncture takes half an hour, and within that half an hour, we have to insert the needle three times. Each time, we have to insert the needle a little deeper, and the last time, we have to insert the needle to the correct depth."
He Hongchi looked at Wenwen seriously and asked, "Do you understand what I'm saying? You must be precise."
She nodded seriously: "Master, I understand."
The master had told her this yesterday. She was afraid that she might not be able to master it accurately today, so she practiced on her thigh for two or three hours, getting a feel for the acupuncture method from shallow to deep.
Generally, acupuncture can insert the needle to the precise depth of the acupuncture point in one go. Then, during the acupuncture process, the needle is only moved once. The main purpose of moving the needle is to stimulate the blood flow of the acupuncture point. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to the circulation of the meridians over a long period of time.
He Hongchi quickly and accurately inserted sixteen needles into Councillor Ding's sixteen acupuncture points. His speed was so fast that he could still see the silver needles trembling slightly after he finished.
He Hongchi looked at the text and asked, "Did you see it clearly?"
Wenwen nodded: "I see it clearly."
In fact, she wanted to shake her head, because He Hongchi's speed was really too fast. This was the skill he had honed over time. It was okay to find the acupuncture points and insert the needles slowly, but being slow would cause pressure on the patient. With He Hongchi's precise and fast acupuncture, he had already completed the acupuncture without the patient feeling anything.
Wenwen said honestly, "I know how to do it, but I can't do it. Master, your hands are so fast, I can only do it more slowly."
I don’t know how long it will take me to be able to insert the needle as quickly as my master can.
He Hongchi nodded: "It's okay to be slow. The most important thing is to control the depth of the needle and find the acupuncture points accurately. The speed can be honed slowly." In fact, the speed of acupuncture is the least important.
Councillor Ding didn't understand what they were saying and thought the acupuncture wasn't finished yet, so he asked, "Has Doctor He finished the acupuncture?"
Wenwen translated for him: "Councilman Ding, all the needles have been inserted. You can't move. Just lie there quietly. The needles can be removed in half an hour."
Councillor Ding was surprised. "It's already done, how come I don't feel anything? Dr. He is amazing. He's so fast and his technique is so good, and I didn't feel anything at all. When I got acupuncture in Hong Kong before, I would feel soreness, pain and swelling."
Wenwen said proudly: "That's because my master has great medical skills. If I give you acupuncture, you will feel soreness and pain."
Councillor Ding gave He Hongchi a thumbs-up in admiration. "A miracle doctor is a miracle doctor, indeed he is different. But the young miracle doctor will definitely not be bad. After all, a great teacher will produce a great student."
He Hongchi calmly waved his hand at him, thinking, "Of course you think anyone can be a miracle doctor? Anyone dares to call themselves a miracle doctor? Only my master and I dare."
He Hongchi said to Wenwen, "You do the acupuncture. Let me see if your acupuncture skills have deteriorated."
Wenwen asked, "Master, how can you tell the acupuncture technique from the needles?"
He Hongchi glared at her when he heard her talk back, "What? My words as a master are useless?"
Wenwen saw that He Hongchi was unhappy and immediately admitted her mistake. She slapped her mouth and said, "No, Master, she just likes to talk back, and I can't control it."
Ten minutes later, He Hongchi pointed at the silver needles on Councillor Ding's body.
Wenwen nodded and stepped forward. "Councilor Ding, I'm giving you acupuncture now. Do you want to tell me what you feel?"
As she spoke, she twisted the silver needle in her hand.
Councillor Ding immediately said, "A little bit of bloating and soreness, but otherwise nothing much."
Wenwen and He Hongchi both nodded. Wenwen didn't say much and gave all the needles once more.
After the first two acupuncture sessions, Councillor Ting said that apart from a little soreness and swelling, he didn't feel much else.
But during the third acupuncture treatment, when He Hongchi signaled Wenwen to insert the needle a little deeper, Councillor Ding couldn't stand it anymore and screamed, "Ah, I can't stand it. I feel like my whole meridian is throbbing and it hurts so much."
He Hongchi signaled to Wenwen that this was the right depth. "Just keep this depth. Only when you reach this depth will it be effective."
After Wenwen had applied all sixteen needles, Councillor Ding felt so uncomfortable that he broke out in sweats. He had never done such acupuncture before and the pain was indescribable.
Wenwen wiped the sweat from her forehead. Unlike ordinary acupuncture, this one required her to concentrate and control the precise depth of the needle, which also consumed a lot of her mental energy.
He Hongchi looked at his apprentice who was wiping his sweat and asked, "How is it? Do you think these sixteen needles are difficult?"
Wenwen nodded: "It's difficult. I just performed acupuncture, but I felt that it was very different from ordinary acupuncture."
He Hongchi looked at her seriously, "Thirteen needles is more difficult than this. It consumes more mental energy from the acupuncturist, and the patient also consumes more energy."
