Take acupuncture for instance. The nine needles used in contemporary tis have fundantally changed from those in the past.
In ancient tis, Fu Xi crafted the nine needles. Over ti, the essence of these needles was lost through generations. The current nine needles are crafted by Master Huai Hall based on ancient texts and are also known as the New Nine Needles.
The New Nine Needles is a generalized term rather than a specific number, including: filiform needle, round needle, blade needle, long needle, large needle, sword-like needle, spoon needle, sharp-edged needle, round sharp needle, three-edged needle, magnetic round plum needle, plum blossom needle, hooked needle, fire needle. Except for the filiform and three-edged needles, the others, such as sharp-edged, round, spoon, sword-like, round sharp, large needle, and hooked needle, have been altered, so beyond recognition.
Before Xu Changshan introduced the instrunts, Xu Chunliang had secretly understood these and disagreed with most of the modifications. The diminished effect of contemporary acupuncture should have so connection with the loss of instrunts. A craftsman must first sharpen his tools; even the dical instrunts do not match the original specifications. The thods of acupuncture have also severely eroded, a slight deviation causing great errors.
Of course, it’s not all negativity; so modifications are just passable, such as the magnetic round plum needle and various fire needles.
Xu Changshan earnestly advised Xu Chunliang to prepare ntally. Learning Traditional Chinese dicine is not an overnight endeavor. It is vast and profound, a deep study of the relationship between the human body and nature, with a broader scope and depth than Western dicine.
The technique of acupuncture demands considerable finger strength and wrist power from the practitioner. Before teaching acupuncture, Xu Changshan required Xu Chunliang to enhance these two aspects. Despite being over seventy years old, he can still do push-ups with both hands and fingers, demonstrating remarkable finger strength.
Naturally, Xu Chunliang couldn’t be too aggressive; he posed as if he were humbly receiving instruction, following Elder Xu’s guidance step by step.
Elder Xu was very satisfied with his attitude. Huichun Hall now had proper successors, and he generously passed down all his skills.
Wang Dalei and his group were apprehended and taken to the police station. Though they kept proclaiming their innocence, no one believed them but themselves. Mrs. Jiang firmly insisted that they intimidated her, causing her distress. The dical office’s surveillance was damaged and did not capture the scene. Considering the group’s previous misdeeds, the police were more inclined to believe Mrs. Jiang’s testimony.
Fortunately, Mrs. Jiang was not seriously hard. If a life had been lost, Wang Dalei’s group wouldn’t be able to clear themselves, even by jumping into the Yellow River.
Investigations showed that Wang Dalei and his group didn’t physically assault anyone at the scene; their conduct only disrupted public order and intimidated others. The ringleader, Wang Dalei, would inevitably be detained, and they would also have to cover Mrs. Jiang’s dical and treatnt fees during her hospital observation.
The most important task now was gaining the victim’s forgiveness. If Mrs. Jiang didn’t agree, they would all end up in detention.
Mrs. Jiang was still lying in the observation room, where the hospital took great care of her over the past couple of days. She was well-fed, well-accommodated, and often had dical staff chatting with her. Mrs. Jiang was so content that she almost forgot about returning ho.
Today, Xu Chunliang ca to visit her, bringing along a decoction of Chinese dicine. The prescription was made under his grandfather’s na, and he brought the prepared concoction for her.
Mrs. Jiang was relatively familiar with him by now. Upon seeing him, she cheerfully greeted, "Xiaoxu is here, have a seat, I’ll peel an apple for you."
Xu Chunliang told her not to be polite and complinted her on her improved complexion.
Mrs. Jiang nodded, "Thanks to your grandfather’s prescribed Chinese dicine, after drinking it, I no longer have a dry mouth or scorched tongue, and I don’t wake up as many tis each night."
Xu Chunliang advised her to take the dicine first before speaking further.
Mrs. Jiang said, "Xiaoxu, you’re usually so busy with work, you don’t have to co here. I feel much better now."
"It’s nothing. I just stopped by to check on you since I was passing by."
Mrs. Jiang looked around and said, "Am I causing you trouble by staying here for so long? I’m actually almost well now, and I could be discharged today." After all, Mrs. Jiang wasn’t without a conscience.
Xu Chunliang laughed, "What are you thinking, ma’am?"
Mrs. Jiang sighed, "I’ve been thinking over the past couple of days. I actually had many faults. When Director Zhao asked to queue up, I couldn’t hold back my temper, but I wasn’t always like this."
"Though I haven’t known you for long, I can see that you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart. The reason you were angry before was because of your health issues, with insufficient kidney water and excessive liver fire. Pardon my bluntness; you must control your emotions in the future and not get angry easily, as too much anger is harmful to your health!"
Mrs. Jiang continuously nodded, "I won’t trouble Director Zhao anymore, nor will I go to the dical office to cause you all any headaches."
"We will always welco you, whenever you co."
"My granddaughter is about the sa age as you. I haven’t seen her for more than half a year." Rembering this, Mrs. Jiang couldn’t help but feel worried, and she sighed again.
Xu Chunliang said, "If you want to see your granddaughter, you can go visit her. With transportation being so convenient nowadays, high-speed trains are easily accessible." He had understood Mrs. Jiang’s situation and knew why she had a difficult personality. After these past days, Mrs. Jiang had let go of her grudge against Changxing Hospital. Xu Chunliang could be said to have resolved this dispute fundantally.
At this mont, soone ca to visit Mrs. Jiang, it was a few companions of Wang Dalei, they had co to ask for Mrs. Jiang’s forgiveness.
Mrs. Jiang did not want to talk to this group of hooligans, the person she trusted the most now was Xu Chunliang, and she asked Xu Chunliang to represent her for a proper talk.
Xu Chunliang put on a business-like face and told them to wait at the dical office, and he would be there shortly.
Xu Chunliang deliberately dawdled in the library for an hour before returning to the dical office. The four hooligans were waiting in the diation room next to the dical office, sitting upright and proper, sothing they had never done before.
Seeing Xu Chunliang enter, they all stood up in unison and greeted, "Director Xu is here."
Xu Chunliang secretly laughed in his heart, realizing that when the situation is stronger than people, even this group of hooligans knew fear. In the past, he was used to being called the Master, but it was the first ti soone called him this title.
An incredibly familiar feeling, the taste of power!
Xu Chunliang’s eyes swept over the faces of the four people one by one, the four who were usually arrogant and domineering, not one dared to et his gaze.
"Where is Wang Dalei?"
The four exchanged glances and told him Wang Dalei was still at the station, he led the troublemaking, the nature of which was relatively serious, and it was not easy to co out.
Xu Chunliang sneered disdainfully, pulled up a chair and sat down, reporting Mrs. Jiang’s conditions to them, which were actually sothing he had just thought up.
First, full reimbursent of her dical expenses for the past two days, reasoning that Mrs. Jiang was hospitalized due to being frightened by them, and the hospital cannot bear this cost.
The few people imdiately expressed no problem, spending money to avoid disaster, compared to detention, this little money was nothing.
Xu Chunliang glared at the guy who spoke, annoyed that he interrupted, and went on to state the second condition, compensation for Mrs. Jiang’s nutritional and emotional damages totaling ten thousand yuan, the amount was previously discussed with Mrs. Jiang.
The third condition was that they must not cause trouble at Changxing Hospital again in the future.
All four agreed, although it was painful to part with the money, for the sake of freedom, money could be forsaken.
Xu Chunliang called in Cheng Xiaohong to have them sign and seal the agreent, with specific enforcent supervised by the police station.
The Director of the dical Office, Zhou Wenbin, upon hearing that Mrs. Jiang’s issue had been satisfactorily resolved, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Chunliang, who had just begun his career, solved two big problems this ti, and through this incident, he successfully persuaded Mrs. Jiang to let go of her grudges. She even voluntarily admitted her mistakes. Over the past month, the old lady had posted nurous big-character posters, which had made Zhao Yongsheng and the entire neurology departnt miserable.
More importantly, the troublemaker Wang Dalei was detained again for disturbing public order and endangering personal safety. Although Mrs. Jiang received compensation and issued a letter of forgiveness, Wang Dalei was the ringleader of the troublemaking, making his actions relatively serious, therefore punished both monetarily and legally. His four accomplices, having a lighter nature in the affair, were exempt from further liability after compensation.
Afterward, Zhou Wenbin carefully reviewed the incident and found that Xu Chunliang had used a strategy of killing two birds with one stone, leveraging Mrs. Jiang to control Wang Dalei, clearly showing an aspect of using power against power, showing that this young man truly had both courage and wisdom.
The Deputy Director of Neurology, Zhao Yongsheng, specifically invited the dical office to a al because of this incident. Mrs. Jiang had tornted him for over a month, but eventually, the clouds opened to reveal the moon.
Zhou Wenbin agreed and inford Xu Chunliang and Cheng Xiaohong to accompany him to the banquet.
Xu Chunliang originally had little interest in such gatherings, but Zhao Yongsheng personally ca to the dical office to invite them, telling him that this ti they not only invited the dical office, but also Deputy Dean Gao Xinhua. Hospitals don’t have many secrets, and Zhao Yongsheng also found out that Xu Chunliang was a person close to Gao Xinhua, this al was also killing two birds with one stone, not only thanking the dical office but also enhancing his relationship with Gao Xinhua.
After work on Wednesday, Cheng Xiaohong drove her Volkswagen Polo, carrying Zhou Wenbin and Xu Chunliang to Min Nan Seafood City for dinner.
Zhou Wenbin had been in a good mood recently, although Xu Chunliang handled the specific issue, as the Director of the dical Office, he received verbal praise from Dean Gu. Looking at Xu Chunliang sitting in front of him, Zhou Wenbin couldn’t help but think that first, there must be a Bole before a thousand-mile horse, if it weren’t for his ability to recognize talent and delegate, the dical Office’s work wouldn’t have seen a turnaround.
Xu Chunliang, with a sweet tongue, praised Cheng Xiaohong’s driving skills.
Cheng Xiaohong was so embarrassed by the praise since she had just obtained her driver’s license three months ago, she asked Xu Chunliang if he had a driver’s license.
Xu Chunliang shook his head, his grandfather did encourage him to learn, but he hadn’t had the ti recently. The longer he stayed in this world, the more he realized cars were an indispensable mode of transportation, and Xu Chunliang already had plans to learn to drive. Actually, he had already started learning from two wheels, mastering public bicycles and shared electric bikes, and next he planned to advance to four wheels.
