Chapter 431: Treatment (4)
Elder Liu was dazzled by the sight. If it wasn’t for Elder Liu’s belief in his granddaughter’s level, he would have suspected that his granddaughter was playing around. When did she become so fast? It was as if she didn’t even need to look at the acupuncture points.
However, Chen Meng’er was not randomly inserting the needle into Elder Sun’s body. Each of her golden needles was inserted into Elder Sun’s corresponding acupuncture points. Moreover, each golden needle was placed just right.
As there were fewer and fewer golden needles in Chen Meng’er’s needle box, fine beads of sweat began to appear on Chen Meng’er’s forehead. Chen Meng’er’s face was no longer as rosy as before. It looked a little pale, which made Elder Liu feel a little distressed and worried.
Chen Meng’er picked up the last golden needle that was about to pierce into Elder Sun’s body. It was also the most crucial and also the most difficult one.
Chen Meng’er took a deep breath. She took out a white handkerchief from her bag and wiped the sweat off her forehead. Then, she focused again and began to complete this last needle, which was also the most crucial one.
When Chen Meng’er inserted the last needle, the speed was as fast as usual. It was so fast that Elder Liu could not see clearly how Chen Meng’er applied the needle. Elder Liu looked at the needles on his old friend’s head. Elder Liu could not help but tremble in his heart. He had practiced medicine for so many years, but he had never applied needles to other people’s heads.
He knew that he would not be as calm as his granddaughter. If he applied the needles, his hands would have trembled violently.
Chen Meng’er looked at the last golden needle that had accurately pierced into Elder Sun’s body, and she let out a heavy sigh of relief. “Phew. Grandpa, it’s done. I’ll take the needle out again in ten minutes. It should be fine.”
“Meng’er, can I ask you a question?” Looking at the needles on his old friend’s head, Elder Liu wanted to open his mouth several times. He was afraid that he would disturb his granddaughter who was applying the needles, so he held it in. Now that his granddaughter had finished applying the needles, he could also speak.
“Grandpa, go ahead.” Chen Meng’er wiped her hands and raised her head to look at her grandfather, waiting for his question.
“Meng’er, I’ve been looking at it for a long time. There seems to be something wrong with the position of the needles. These few needles are not in the acupuncture points.” Elder Liu looked at his good friend who was lying on the bed without any adverse reactions, and his heart was hanging in the air, he felt slightly relieved.
“Oh, this. The array formation that I used for the needles is different from the ones in the medical books that we usually read. The acupuncture points that I used aren’t the main acupuncture points, but some minor acupuncture points in the head. These acupuncture points aren’t marked in the medical books that we have in our country. I’ll bring this diagram of the acupuncture points to you later. Grandpa, you’ll know when you study it properly.” Chen Meng’er was so busy that she forgot about this, many of the acupuncture points that appeared in her mutated brain were different from the usual acupuncture points.
“Okay, you can bring it to Grandpa when we go back.” When Elder Liu heard that it was related to Chinese medicine, he became excited.
Chen Meng’er nodded. She raised her wrist and looked at the watch on her wrist. “Yes, it’ll be about ten minutes. Grandpa, I’m going to start taking out the needles and start the next step of treatment,” said Chen Meng’er, she looked at Elder Liu with a serious expression. “Grandpa, when I take out the 63 golden needles, go get a pillow and prop up Grandpa Sun’s head.”
“Okay.” Elder Liu’s heart was filled with curiosity. He wanted to know why his granddaughter wanted him to prop up Grandpa Sun’s head. After all, Grandpa Sun had injured his head, usually, doctors would ask them not to touch the patient’s head to avoid secondary injuries. However, Elder Liu looked at his granddaughter’s face and looked like she was ready. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Chen Meng’er heard her grandfather’s reply and took a deep breath. Taking out a needle was not as easy as applying a needle. Moreover, Chen Meng’er did not just take out all the golden needles that had been inserted into Elder Sun’s acupuncture points. She wanted to leave a golden needle in Elder Sun’s body. This needle was crucial to the treatment below.
Chen Meng’er felt a lot of pressure. However, she still persisted. She calmed down and focused all her attention on taking out the golden needles that had been inserted into Elder Sun’s body at a speed that Elder Liu couldn’t see clearly at all, only one golden needle was left in Elder Sun’s forehead. “Grandpa, the pillow, please.”
After Chen Meng’er finished speaking, Elder Liu moved quickly, but he gently placed the pillow under Elder Sun’s head. “It’s done.”
“Yes,” Chen Meng’er replied softly. Then, when Elder Liu almost cried out in surprise, Chen Meng’er reached out and pushed the golden needle that was half exposed into Elder Sun’s acupuncture points, only the small head of the golden needle was left outside.
“Meng’er.” Elder Liu finally couldn’t hold it in and shouted. They all knew how long this golden needle was. If the entire needle was inserted, wouldn’t it directly pierce into Elder Sun’s brain,
however, Chen Meng’er didn’t seem to hear her grandfather’s voice. She stared at Elder Sun’s head without blinking. Her expression was frighteningly serious.
After the entire golden needle was inserted into Elder Sun’s acupuncture points, Elder Sun, who had been unconscious for less than a minute, reacted. However, this reaction made Elder Liu and the Sun family members who were looking through the large glass window in the intensive care unit, scream.
