Just as the old traditional doctor was staring in shock, the Chief of the District Traditional Hospital, standing to the side, exclaimed in horror, "Qigong! This fiery breath must be qigong!"
His voice was hoarse, and the tone also became somewhat eerie.
In fact, traditional Chinese medicine uses the Yin Yang Five Elements as its theoretical basis, viewing the human body as a unity of qi, form, and spirit. By employing the four diagnostic methods of "looking, smelling, asking, and feeling," it seeks the causes, nature, and location of diseases, analyzes the changes in the internal organs, meridians, joints, and blood-qi, assesses the growth and decline of pathogenic and healthy influences, and thus identifies the disease and its pattern, concluding with a differentiated treatment.
In terms of treatment methods, the most important components are Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage, and food therapy.
Beyond that, Qigong cannot be left unmentioned.
In traditional Chinese medicine theory, Qigong is a treatment method that stands alongside Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage, and food therapy.
But true Qigong is definitely not something you can learn by buying a couple of Qigong guides from the Xinhua Bookstore.
And with the prevalence of exam-oriented education.
Unified textbooks in medical schools.
The treatment method of Qigong also gradually vanished.
Because true Qigong is actually cultivation.
"What a formidable young man!" the old traditional doctor watched Shen Qiang in shock.
Almost at the same time, Ding Yuhuan's grandmother also said in amazement, "It feels very comfortable. I can clearly feel a warm current entering my body with the needle, nourishing my knee joint. The soreness and the cold damp seem to be disappearing."
"Really?" The old traditional doctor squatted beside Ding Yuhuan's grandmother in shock, his eyes unblinking as he watched the iron needle's trembling gradually cease.
The Chief of the District Traditional Hospital said with wide eyes full of shock, "It's amazing. Although I don't quite understand why it is like this, I feel that this young man's acupuncture technique is even more powerful than the Zhong Family Medical Hall's techniques."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang gave a slight smile, but said nothing.
Because by now, Shen Qiang had already clearly understood the true therapeutic effect of Human Control Needle Technique.
It simply couldn't be compared with the Zhong Family's small Plum Blossom Needle Technique.
"It feels so good."
By the time the tremors of the iron needle had completely stopped, Ding Yuhuan's grandmother was filled with wonder and astonishment.
Shen Qiang removed the needle.
Sitting on the chair beside the bed, the old lady moved her leg excitedly, exclaiming, "How strange, I've been to the Zhong Family Medical Hall. Their acupuncture is very good, each time it can effectively relieve the soreness in my legs and the cold damp."
"But that is just relief, the pain is still there, the cold is still the same."
"But now%..."
Looking at the puzzlement in the old lady's eyes, the old traditional doctor urgently asked, "Sister Li, how are you feeling now?"
"Quick, tell us, how was the effect?" the Chief of the District Traditional Hospital urged, "Just tell us your true feeling."
"The true feeling?" The old lady looked at Ding Yuhuan whose expression was equally anxious, and after a full three seconds of silence, while bending her leg back and forth, she said in astonishment, "It seems like there's no feeling..."
The old traditional doctor was stunned, "No feeling, how is that possible?"
And almost at the same time, the old lady continued, "No soreness, no cold damp, no feeling at all."
The Chief of the District Traditional Hospital, his eyes immediately widened, said in shock, "Sister Li, do you mean your leg..."
"It's better!" The old lady stood up in surprise and disbelief, walking around the bedroom, sitting down, then standing up again, and even doing a deep squat, becoming more and more excited as she moved.
"It's better, my leg is better, no soreness, no cold damp, I feel like I have returned to my youth..."
The old lady was speaking and began to choke up.
"I never expected that my chronic cold legs, which have plagued me for most of my life, would unexpectedly heal just like that."
Seeing the old lady's eyes brimming with tears, Ding Yuhuan also became emotionally moved and called her grandmother.
However, the one even more overwrought at this moment was the old traditional doctor. He looked around in amazement at everything before him and muttered to himself, "Such a powerful acupuncture technique, this is the real technique. I never thought, after laboring all my life, I would encounter a true master at this age!"
Saying this, the old traditional doctor looked at Shen Qiang and knelt down before him.
"Doctor Shen, please teach me!"
Shen Qiang, quick to react, immediately grabbed him.
What a joke!
Teach him?
At the age of fifty or sixty, nearing retirement, was he supposed to start cultivation from scratch?
"No," Shen Qiang said coldly, blocking the old traditional doctor's way, his response very resolute.
After all, to act is to live.
Since he didn't plan to teach him, he might as well make it clear so he could give up hope and stop bothering him endlessly. Otherwise, neither scolding nor fighting would end the nuisance.
The cold refusal filled the old traditional doctor with dejection.
At that moment, the director from the district hospital quickly interjected, "Old Song, you should be content. If it weren't for this serendipitous encounter, you might never have witnessed such miraculous medical skill in your life. Now that you have, aren't you satisfied?"
Upon hearing this, the old traditional doctor's eyes brightened a bit as he said, "Yes, indeed, contentment brings happiness. Being able to see Doctor Shen's miraculous acupuncture technique in my lifetime is enough."
Shen Qiang smiled and released his hand, saying to Ding Yuhuan's grandmother, "Now that your legs have healed, I should be going."
Upon hearing this, the old lady became anxious and grabbed Shen Qiang, saying, "No, you can't go. It's rare for you to come by today; even if you have urgent matters, you must stay for dinner before leaving. Besides, our Jade Ring is an excellent cook."
Shen Qiang felt a bit embarrassed by the old lady's words.
Actually, Shen Qiang had come here just to verify the Human Control Needle Technique and, by the way, to help a colleague.
But it seemed the old lady had misunderstood.
"Doctor Shen, you really can't leave. Sister Li's legs have been treated on and off for decades without any improvement. Your visit cured her. It looks like Director Chang and I might have to impose for a meal today," said the old traditional doctor, his worries having been dissipated as he laughed heartily.
Ding Yuhuan then said, "Shen Qiang, don't go. I'm going to start cooking right away; it will be ready soon."
Seeing their warm enthusiasm, Shen Qiang would appear unreasonable if he insisted on leaving. Thus, with a smile, he reluctantly agreed to stay.
Ding Yuhuan and her grandmother went to the kitchen together.
In the somewhat cramped living room, only the director from the district hospital, the old traditional doctor, and Shen Qiang were left.
After all, they were in the same profession, so there was no shortage of common language.
However, in terms of perspective and ability, the two men were clearly no match for Shen Qiang, so for the most part, it was they who did the talking while Shen Qiang listened.
It wasn't until after a full half-hour, when their enthusiasm for talking faded, that Shen Qiang smiled and asked a question.
"Where is this Zhong Family Medical Hall you mentioned?"
