Chapter 20: A Big Loss (Seeking Recommendations)
In Yang Xiang's advertising office, Wu Rui asked Yang Xiang to take off Xiao Mi's clothes. The little girl then twisted and turned, sleeping on the office desk, her small face red with shyness at such a young age.
Yang Xuan was even more vigilant, staring tightly at Wu Rui with a stainless steel pipe in her hand, afraid that her daughter would be molested, and believing that if Wu Rui had any unscrupulous behavior in his eyes, she might really strike him down.
Wu Rui directly threw a sanitary pad to the widow, did he have such a beastly nature? But he was too lazy to explain this stupid question, carefully took out his Shen Nong Nine Needles, every move extremely cautious, as if facing his beloved woman.
Yang Xuan's eyes lit up at this, and for the first time, she could see that Wu Rui was not pretending. She gained a few more points of confidence in his medical skills, and even put down the stainless steel tube on the table, waiting eagerly for Wu Rui to make his next move.
Seeing the little girl's body tense on the desktop, Wu Rui asked with a gentle smile: "Xiao Mi, are you afraid?"
"No... I'm not afraid!" Xiao Mi said, trying to sound strong, but her pale face betrayed her true thoughts. Especially when she saw the nine super-long silver needles in Wu Rui's hand, Xiao Mi was almost scared to tears.
"Xiaomi is really brave, just wait a minute, as long as the body doesn't move, it won't hurt!" Wu Rui smiled and coaxed.
"Ah...... I won't move then!" Xiao Mi was so frightened that her face turned pale and her body tensed up, not daring to move at all.
Next to her, Yang Xiang saw that this wasn't going to work either. Worried, she hastily forced a smile and began to comfort her: "Xiaomi, don't be afraid, just relax your body, Mom is right next to you. If you're scared of seeing the needle, then just close your eyes."
"Xiaomi will be good, Mommy!" After being comforted by her mother like this, Xiaomi's body relaxed slightly, but upon hearing this, she still closed her eyes, only the slight twitching of her eyelids indicating that their owner was still tense.
Seeing Xiao Mi close her eyes, Wu Rui also let out a breath. It seems that his experience is still insufficient. At least he won't coax children. He looked at Yang Guafu with gratitude. Wu Rui's expression turned solemn, and the silver needle in his hand quickly changed, rapidly inserting into Xiao Mi's body. He applied one needle to her brow, two needles to each of her hands and feet, and four needles to her body, among which the last needle was inserted into Xiao Mi's heart position.
...Yang Xuan was shocked, covering her mouth with both hands to prevent herself from screaming. Although she wasn't a doctor, she knew the importance and fragility of the brow and heart, and she couldn't imagine how two long silver needles could be inserted into those positions. If she hadn't seen that her daughter's breathing remained steady, she would have pounced on Wu Rui to tear him apart.
Wu Rui is not in the mood to care about Yang Xuan's feelings now, and this treatment also puts a lot of pressure on him, so he must be fully focused, and the entire acupuncture process must be flawless, otherwise, if the treatment fails, it may also harm Xiao Mi's body.
Especially the two needles of Yintang and heart, any mistake may be fatal.
Zhenyuan attached to his palm, Wu Rui began to gently move the silver needle, layer by layer of true yuan waves continuously seeping into Xiao Mi's body.
At the beginning, Wu Rui was operating with one hand, but after about five cycles, Wu Rui simultaneously released true yuan from both hands, manipulated the silver needles, and even the frequency of moving the silver needles was completely consistent.
This is called Resonance Acupuncture.
As the two needles simultaneously input true energy, this true energy enters the body's meridians and then spreads to the four limbs and hundred holes. When the two stocks of true energy collide with each other, they will produce vibrations, thereby stimulating bodily functions, unblocking meridian holes, and achieving other miraculous effects.
These silver needles were invisible, but what made her almost cry out in surprise was that the other seven silver needles were constantly vibrating, as if they had come to life. The scene was eerie and terrifying, making Yang Xiang, an atheist, almost scream with a shocked, puzzled, stunned, and bewildered expression...
As Wu Rui's hands changed, except for the one on her heart, all the other eight needles had been manipulated by Wu Rui. What made Yang Xuan extremely delighted was that Xiao Mi's originally pale face had gradually become rosy, and her eyebrows, which were jumping with excitement, were also very comfortably relaxed. It was clear that not only did she not feel any pain, but she seemed to be very comfortable, which made Yang Xuan secretly marvel again, and when she looked at Wu Rui this time, her gaze was completely different.
She knew that Wu Rui was not a scammer, but a real divine doctor. Yang Xuan felt guilty for her suspicions and insults, but this was not the time to say these things, she could only force herself to suppress these thoughts deep down.
As she shifted her gaze back to Wu Rui, Yang Xuan discovered that something was off about him. His face looked slightly tired, and his forehead was covered in beads of sweat the size of soybeans, some of which had even dripped onto Xiao Mi's body.
Although she didn't understand why, Yang Xuan lightly bit her lip and carefully wiped the sweat from Wu Rui's forehead with her sleeve, the sour smell of the sweat making her face slightly flush.
Wu Rui looked at Yang Xuan with gratitude, but he couldn't afford to be distracted for a moment now. He quickly focused his mind and devoted himself to the treatment. He found that he had underestimated the amount of true energy required to treat this congenital absolute pulse, which was more than he had imagined. But now he didn't want to interrupt it, or else all his efforts would be in vain. He could only continue to persevere bitterly.
Looking at Wu Rui who was fully focused in front of her, Yang Xuan found that her heart was beating a little fast, just like the feeling when she first fell in love...... This discovery made her blush and also startled her, hurriedly lowering her head to wipe away this shameful and unrealistic thought, scolding herself for being shameless.
"Help me get that backpack over here!" Wu Rui suddenly ordered Yang Xuan, but his tone was almost commanding, yet somewhat weak.
"Ah...... okay, I'll get it for you!" Yang Xuan exclaimed, her face flushing as she handed the backpack over to Wu Rui. It was only then that she noticed Wu Rui's pale complexion and was suddenly frightened, asking "Y-you're okay, right?"
"It's nothing!" Wu Rui casually responded, keeping his left hand on the silver needle above his heart, freeing up his right hand to reach into his back pocket. After rummaging around for a bit, he pulled out a completely human-shaped ginseng and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing on it like a cow. His originally pale face gradually regained its color.
It turned out that he had already exhausted all his true energy just now, and if there was no ginseng to replenish his spiritual energy, this treatment would inevitably end in failure. Of course, the ginseng was not actually in the backpack, but he needed a cover to take it out of the Minah ring, otherwise, if a ginseng appeared in his hand out of thin air, he was worried that it would scare Yang Guafu, and he couldn't explain it to her either.
As the spiritual energy of the half-cut ginseng surged into his body like a river, the abundant true energy gave Wu Rui the confidence to continue treating him. His left hand continued to input true energy into the heart meridian, while his right hand quickly pulled out the remaining eight needles.
This needle in the heart is the final step of treatment and also the most crucial step in the treatment.
In fact, the previous few needles were to repair the damage caused by the previous absolute pulse, and this needle of the heart can completely seal off the absolute pulse. This is a crucial step that he dare not be careless or distracted in the slightest.
Yang Xuan saw Wu Rui take out a ginseng from his backpack, and she was stunned at first. After Wu Rui put the remaining half of the ginseng back on the table, she couldn't help but examine it carefully, and the more she looked, the more shocked she became.
Yang Xiang was unfamiliar with traditional Chinese medicine, but she was no stranger to ginseng. Her daughter often needed to take it to regulate her body, and Yang Xiang had even studied the relevant information about ginseng. Although she wouldn't dare say she was an expert, she still had a good eye for it. The ginseng Wu Rui took out was of excellent quality, with a beautiful appearance and a plump physique that had fully formed into a human shape. From its roots and color, Yang Xiang could tell that this was actually a wild ginseng that was several decades old, worth tens of millions on the market.
Wu Rui just now that one bite although did not eat the whole ginseng, but also bit nearly a quarter, worth at least over 100,000.
If we still go by the consultation fee discussed earlier, Wu Rui wouldn't just lose a star or two, he'd be losing big time!
While secretly deciding to increase the medical fee, Yang Xuan once again focused her attention on her daughter, clenching her fists tightly and sincerely hoping that this treatment would be successful.
