Dragon King Hall's Legend Chapter 76: Famous Scenic Spots and Dangerous Buildings!

Shen Shuyao heard Shen Changchun's call and hurriedly asked, "Grandfather, what is the 'Return to Origin Acupuncture Technique'?"

A look of surprise and joy mingled in Shen Changchun's eyes, and after his chest heaved for a few tis, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid Qi, calming his emotions, and then he slowly began, "You've heard of 'Elental Qi,' haven't you?"

Since Shen Shuyao was a graduate of the Jiangnan dical College and had grown up under the influence of her grandfather, she naturally understood these theories and imdiately replied, "Elental Qi is a term in traditional Chinese dicine. It is the most fundantal and important Qi of the human body, the original driving force of human life activities. Traditional Chinese dical theory holds that Elental Qi originates from the Essence Qi of the Innate and the refined essence of food and water acquired thereafter. The 'Nanjing' also refers to it as 'Origin Qi'."

"That's right," Shen Changchun, whose shock had subsided, nodded and continued, "The birthplace of Elental Qi is the Innate Essence stored in the kidneys, and the Elental Qi generated by the Innate Essence arises at the Gate of Life. The 'Nanjing: Thirty-six Difficulties' states: 'The Gate of Life... is where Origin Qi is anchored.' The Innate Essence in the kidneys is endowed by the reproductive essence of one's parents and exists during the embryonic period. After birth, it must be nourished and supplented by the essence of food and water transford by the spleen and stomach, in order to generate an ample amount of Elental Qi."

Seeing that i Yinxue did not fully understand, Shen Changchun further explained, "To put Elental Qi in terms of modern dicine, it can be divided into normal thinking responses, good sleep, good appetite and digestion, the ability to run and not panic, no coughing or shortness of breath, smooth Qi flow, good complexion, and a clear voice…"

"These manifestations of immunity are the original driving force from within the human body—Elental Qi. There is a saying in traditional Chinese dicine: 'When Qi gathers, life is created; when Qi is strong, health prevails; when Qi weakens, one becos feeble; when Qi disperses, death ensues.' Traditional Chinese dicine believes that Elental Qi is the essence of life, the Origin of Life. When Elental Qi is abundant, health abounds; when Elental Qi is damaged, illness arises; when Elental Qi is depleted, death follows…"

"Elental Qi determines the entirety of life; that is, when Elental Qi is plentiful, the immune system is strong, thereby overcoming diseases. If the body's Elental Qi is deficient or weak, it cannot generate enough antibodies or immunity to triumph over illnesses, thus leading to death."

Saying this, Shen Changchun pointed at the several robust n who looked sowhat astonished and said, "They were originally snatched back by us and, though their lives were saved, they were still in a state of great illness and severely depleted Elental Qi, needing to lie in bed and slowly recuperate for a period of ti before they could replenish their Elental Qi…"

"Yet just now, the Young Divine Doctor, in administering the 'Return to Origin Acupuncture Technique,' was employing an extraordinary acupuncture thod created by a Divine Doctor of old, specifically for human Elental Qi. This acupuncture technique is incredibly profound, not requiring those with severely drained Elental Qi to lie in bed and rely on the daily consumption of food essence to recuperate their health; instead, it uses an exquisite technique to stimulate the patients' acupoints, allowing their dissipating Elental Qi to swiftly recover…"

After briefly describing the specific principles, Shen Changchun paused and added, "Of course, this thod of rapidly supplenting Elental Qi does have so harm to the human body, but as long as one takes the unique healing prescription and consus plenty of at and Qi-Blood nourishnt daily, the patients generally won't suffer any lasting side effects."

After listening, i Yinxue nodded thoughtfully and said, "So, that's why Doctor Mu just now urged them to eat more at daily, as it's good for their recovery, and he ntioned he would give them a uniform prescription to drink in the coming days, to help restore the Elental Qi they've depleted?!"

Shen Changchun nodded and said, "Right, that healing prescription is ant to be used in conjunction with the 'Return to Origin Acupuncture Technique,' ensuring that patients won't be left with irreversible side effects from the forced recovery of Elental Qi by the stimulation of the technique."

After explaining, Shen Changchun fell back into a state of shock and murmured incessantly, "How could this be possible? How old is he? How could he possess such terrifying dical skills and master the 'Return to Origin Acupuncture Technique,' which has long been lost…"

When Shen Changchun had earlier questioned Mu Jinyu's intentions to treat Wang Zhengbiao, it was not out of contempt for him, but because traditional Chinese dicine is entirely different from Western dicine.

In Western dicine, there are so geniuses who, in their twenties or thirties, have beco the chief physicians and specialists of hospitals; but that is because Western dical diagnosis and treatnt mainly rely on dical equipnt and laboratory findings to determine the cause of diseases, followed by specific treatnts.

As long as one has mastery of those clinical data and indicators, even if one's clinical experience is not particularly extensive, they can still prescribe treatnts for patients by the book.

But Chinese dicine is different; it primarily employs the "Four Diagnostic thods" of observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking to explore the root causes of a patient's illness.

Western dicine does not treat people as whole beings but rather as a combination of parts, whereas Chinese dicine emphasizes the "Unity of Heaven and Man," highlighting the harmonious unity between humans and nature. It views people as integrated systems, prioritizes preventive dicine, and has developed a therapeutic system comprising moxibustion, acupuncture, cauterization, and dication.

The first three are basically physical therapies, causing minimal harm to the body. When it cos to dication, although there are only slightly over a hundred safe dicines, myriad prescriptions can be created through different combinations. Even for the sa illness, each person might receive a unique treatnt, truly adhering to the principle of patient-centered care.

Therefore, age is highly valued in Chinese dicine. The older the practitioner, the more experienced they are presud to be at treating ailnts, which is why elderly Chinese dicine doctors beco more sought after as they age.

Young Chinese dicine doctors, on the other hand, generally would not have patients dare to seek treatnt from them.

However, Mu Jinyu overturned his belief that the older the Chinese dicine practitioner, the more popular they beca.

"It shouldn't be like this, ah. He's clearly so young, he should have no experience in practicing dicine, so why does he know the 'Return to Origin Acupuncture Technique'? Why does he..."

Shen Changchun fell into a state of confusion, muttering incessantly, still struggling to accept this reality.

"Heh... What's so hard to accept? 'One leaf obstructs the view of the entire forest!'"

Suddenly, a detached voice emanated from the doorway—it was Mu Jinyu.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changchun's body shuddered, and he turned his head to look. Mu Jinyu was already standing at the entrance, looking at them indifferently.

It turned out that while they were conversing, Mu Jinyu had already made a round inside the small clinic, treating all of i Yinxue's subordinates in need of dical attention, and then returned.

Naturally, he had also overheard Shen Changchun's shockingly unbelievable and incredulous words.

Seeing Shen Changchun looking back at him, Mu Jinyu's expression remained cold as he said indifferently, "Do you know? There are many buildings in this world that have stood for a hundred years. So of them are preserved and protected at great expense, eventually becoming historical landmarks and cultural heritage...

"However, others, despite also being centuries old, are destined not to beco landmarks or cultural heritage but to beco dangerous buildings that people will tear down!"

As he spoke, Mu Jinyu fixed his gaze on Shen Changchun, let out a sneer, and said, "And people like you are destined to be those dangerous buildings that will be torn down!"
