Chapter 1697: Chapter 1697: A Fierce Slap in the Face
What does “effortless grace” an, what does “dancing gracefully” an—as long as you watch Luo Ziling’s acupuncture performance, you will understand the aning of these two words. Moreover, you will also know what real speed of the hand ans.
“Such handso movents, ahhh, Ziling’s hands are so beautiful, I’ve fallen in love just by looking at his hands, not his face.” This is what a lovestruck girl posted on her social dia when she saw Luo Ziling’s slender fingers dancing with the silver needles during the livestream. The post includes a photo of Luo Ziling’s face and a screenshot of him holding the needle.
After the social dia post was published, it imdiately garnered a lot of likes, along with many similar comnts.
“Is this the legendary Flying Dagger skill?” This is what a male student posted on his social dia.
Many people liked it again, but soone quickly corrected: “Dude, you’re wrong, this isn’t the Flying Dagger, it’s the Luo Flying Needle.”
“Next ti I et Luo Ziling, I’d better be careful, he might injure soone with his flying needle,” posted by one of Luo Ziling’s classmates on social dia.
“Hehe, if Junior Ziling were to do embroidery, that would be very handso too,” posted another lovestruck girl on social dia.
In reality, many people have witnessed Luo Ziling’s acupuncture skill, but that was for treatnt purposes, which couldn’t be as fluid as a flying needle.
During treatnt, the speed is not fast, but the movents are quite fluid.
Now, it’s a performance, which doesn’t need energy for needling, so it’s only required to hit the acupuncture points and withdraw the needle, making the speed naturally dazzling.
Ling Ruonan, Yang Qingyin, and Luo Yuqing, the three won, were seeing Luo Ziling perform acupuncture in this manner for the first ti, and they were all amazed by his technique. Their original worries were completely gone, only joy and astonishnt remained.
Luo Yuqing even decided that when they returned, she would ask Luo Ziling to perform the acupuncture once more so she could take close-up photos to show off on social dia.
Gu Jian’an was also dumbfounded. The last ti he competed with Luo Ziling, he didn’t clearly see Luo Ziling’s technique, but one thing was certain: Luo Ziling’s acupuncture then wasn’t this fast. However, he suddenly realized that Luo Ziling’s acupuncture speed had increased dramatically, definitely related to practicing on the acupuncture bronze man during this ti. After obtaining his bronze man, Luo Ziling certainly practiced diligently, naturally improving his speed.
The other “masters” who were defeated by Luo Ziling’s acupuncture skill watched him with wide-open eyes when they saw his fluid technique.
The acupuncture skill of Luo Ziling that they had witnessed before wasn’t like this at all. This was clearly not the Taiyi Divine Needle technique, but another skill they hadn’t seen before. The Taiyi Divine Needle doesn’t emphasize speed, and it’s safe to say that no acupuncture skill is judged by speed.
The value of acupuncture skill lies in its therapeutic effect, so they disagreed with today’s competition standard.
After the competition began, they understood that Xu Chongzhi wanted to exploit Luo Ziling by comparing speed. Elder Xu had spent a lot of ti on the acupuncture bronze man, practicing countless tis, and could accurately hit the acupoints with his eyes closed. When competing with Luo Ziling in speed, many people sympathized with him, thinking Elder Xu would be disadvantaged due to his age in terms of speed.
After many people had such thoughts, they naturally overlooked the fact that Elder Xu practiced daily on the acupuncture bronze man—however, this ti, Elder Xu’s cleverness backfired as Luo Ziling’s speed was no slower than his, and his accuracy was not lower.
The team mbers who originally thought Luo Ziling would lose, changed their minds imdiately after watching for a few seconds, becoming as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline. They watched the big screen without blinking.
They were completely certain that this was a technique Luo Ziling had kept hidden, never demonstrated to anyone—okay, specifically, not to them.
These people’s guesses were correct; the acupuncture technique Luo Ziling perford was indeed never shown in front of others.
Originally, he didn’t intend to use this speed and hand-feel practice thod, which he had developed together with his grandfather Luo Liansheng, focusing not on effect, but on speed and accuracy in needling. When dealing with Gu Jian’an and other old folks, he won with commonly used techniques, but today, seeing Xu Chongzhi’s nearly perfect technique, he had to give his all.
Luo Ziling knew that today his grandfather would be watching the livestream from in front of the TV, so he wanted to make his grandfather proud.
By using a practice thod to win against Xu Chongzhi’s fast needling, Luo Ziling felt his grandfather would be very happy too.
In the audience, when the Korean spectators saw Luo Ziling’s acupuncture technique, many felt uneasy, and the noise gradually started. After half a minute, the noise grew louder, and there were even whistles and screams. In the last ten seconds or so, the noise beca even bigger, the entire venue was chaotic, and so people even started singing their national anthem.
When Xu Chongzhi was performing, the whole scene was almost silent, with neither Korean nor Huaxia audiences making noise, trying their best not to disturb Xu Chongzhi’s acupuncture.
But unexpectedly, when Luo Ziling took the stage, the Korean audience intentionally disrupted, trying to disturb Luo Ziling’s acupuncture with noise. Many people were angry, but they didn’t explode on the spot.
They knew that if they protested or did anything else at that ti, it would disturb Luo Ziling even more, so they temporarily held back.
The TV audience couldn’t hold it back, and many viewers watching the live broadcast jumped up imdiately to denounce the Koreans’ anness when they saw them deliberately making noise to interfere with Luo Ziling. Since they couldn’t disturb Luo Ziling, they vented their discontent in various ways.
The viewers watching the streaming broadcast expressed their opinions through bullet comnts, condemning the Koreans’ anness.
A minute is very short, and everything passed quickly.
After the host announced that ti was up, Luo Ziling imdiately stopped.
After stopping, he pulled off the black cloth covering his face, placed both the cloth and the needles he was holding back onto the tray held by the pretty lady beside him. After elegantly finishing all this, he bowed to the audience and humorously mocked the Korean audience a bit.
“Thank you for providing accompanint during my acupuncture performance, but maybe you didn’t expect that the noise you made didn’t disrupt my focus, it actually stimulated my reactions. If you’re interested, you might want to watch the videos carefully. After watching, you’ll find that after you tried to disturb with noise, my needling speed and accuracy actually increased. So, I still have to thank you! If Old Mr. Xu loses, you bear a great responsibility.”
Having said this, he bowed in several directions again, with a very sincere attitude.
The Korean audience was stunned by Luo Ziling’s words and actions…
