Chapter 117 Self-Study of Thirteen Needles (1/2)



Wang Jiaxing and Huang Xinrui had been able to eat meat every day before, so they were quite calm. But the new educated youth all came from poor families and rarely ate meat, sometimes only once a month. How could they not be excited to be eating meat so soon after arriving in the countryside?

Although wild boar meat is a bit tough, it's very juicy, and they don't mind it at all.

Even Li Muqing, who had a broken leg, ate voraciously and quickly finished her portion of meat.

Meat is a rare commodity, so to be fair, everyone cuts two ounces of meat from their three pounds of meat to cook. After the dishes are cooked, the meat is divided so that everyone can eat their own, while the other dishes are shared.

Seeing that Li Muqing looked like a starving ghost, Huang Xinrui looked down on her. While slowly eating the meat in her bowl, she said, "We'll take turns doing the work. Two people a day will be responsible for cooking, preparing dishes, carrying water, and gathering firewood. Wang Zhiqing and I will work together, and you guys can choose your own partners."

ā€œI’m in a group with Zhu Zhiqing,ā€ Li Muqing said.

Zhu Jianhua was still bothered by the fact that she had lied to him, but seeing her pleading look at him, he finally didn't refuse and acquiesced.

Zhou Yunze was definitely going to be in a group with his sister, so there was one extra person.

Xu Shanshan bit her lip, looking helpless.

Seeing her like that, Wang Jiaxing couldn't bear it and said, "Xu Zhiqing can join our group. The three of us can take turns for two days."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Huang Xinrui. Huang Xinrui knew he was a nice guy, and Xu Shanshan wasn't one to cause trouble. She also didn't want to embarrass Wang Jiaxing in front of so many people, so she agreed.

Xu Shanshan glanced at the two men gratefully, thinking to herself that she would definitely do more work to live up to their kindness.

After hearing the commotion next door, Li Xiyue tidied up the kitchen, closed the door, and prepared to rest.

She went into the room, took a shower, and changed into the new pajamas that Sun Xia had made for her.

She specially asked Sun Xia to make her two sets of short-sleeved pajamas for summer, made of cotton, which are very soft and breathable.

After taking a shower and changing into my pajamas, I felt completely relaxed.

Li Xiyue wasn't sleepy yet, so she went to the study to look through medical books. Xiaobai had gone outside to play with the animals, so there was no need to worry about it.

Li Xiyue found an ancient medical book about acupuncture and became very interested, so she sat down to read it slowly.

I thought I had mastered acupuncture, but I was surprised to find that many of the acupuncture techniques recorded in this ancient medical book were ones I had never seen before, especially the record of the thirteen ghost needles, a unique skill.

Medical books say that the Thirteen Ghost Needles were created by Bian Que, but this founder of traditional Chinese medicine only passed it down orally and did not leave any written record.

Zhang Daoling of the Eastern Han Dynasty systematically modified the Thirteen Ghost Needles.

Zhang Daoling, also known as Zhang Tianshi, was the founder of Taoism. He was skilled in using talismans, and his power was so great that he could move mountains and fill seas. Generally, evil spirits would give way when they saw Zhang Tianshi.

His modified thirteen needles can exorcise evil spirits, reverse the cycle of yin and yang, and snatch people from the clutches of Yama, the King of Hell.

However, those who administer the acupuncture will suffer karmic repercussions. Taoist metaphysics and Qimen Dunjia have always emphasized lineage and master-disciple relationships. Without the right opportunity, it is difficult for someone to learn the true Thirteen Ghost Needles.

First, locating the acupoints is a problem. The timing, force, duration, order, and intervals for needling are all strictly regulated.

The consequences of even the slightest mistake are unimaginable.

Only exceptionally gifted TCM geniuses can master this acupuncture technique.

The Thirteen Needles can unblock Yin and Yang, making evil spirits reveal their origins. Once the Thirteen Needles are applied in succession, they can be completely annihilated.

According to the book, even the most brilliant medical genius never performed a complete set of thirteen needles during his lifetime.
