Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 234 Give Yourself Acupuncture

Liu Ya has read this medical handbook many times.With her memory, it can reach the level of back and forth.But medical skills can not be learned by memorizing a book, but also need to carefully ponder the mystery.

For example, she is now studying acupuncture and moxibustion, and she needs to know the precise location of each acupuncture point, the depth of the needle and the time of retaining the needle, as well as the possible curative effect, side effects and consequences after acupuncture.If acupuncture and moxibustion are to be performed in combination with medicines, different prescriptions must use different methods of acupuncture, which is very particular.

This is easy in theory but difficult in practice.Now Liu Ya can prescribe a prescription according to the disease, but if she really picks up silver needles and uses acupuncture and medicine to treat her, she may not be sure.

After watching for a while, Liu Ya raised her head and asked Liu Dacheng: "Father, what's the matter with you? Do you want to salute or drink water?"

Liu Dacheng said: "No, Dad doesn't need to show respect all day. If you want to go out to play, go."

Liu Ya said: "I won't go out to play, just sleep in the room for a while, call me if you need anything."

Liu Dacheng waved his hand, "Okay, go to sleep."

Liu Ya went to the kitchen first, and found the jar of wine that Chen Wuniu bought when he came to eat last time. After shaking it, there was still a small half of the jar.Then gently closed the door, and took out the silver needle bought the day before.The reason why she said she was going to take a nap was that she didn't want Liu Dacheng to know that she was studying medicine, and she was also afraid of being disturbed.

Liu Ya poured some wine into a small dish.Open the bag of silver needles wrapped in cowhide, take out a few and soak them in wine for a while, and then wipe the silver needles with a white cloth.

Liu Ya took a deep breath, then pulled out one, thinking hard about the acupuncture points and techniques in the medical handbook.Then he raised his hand and stabbed the "Neiguan" point on his wrist.This acupoint governs the heart meridian. After acupuncture, it can regulate the heart rate and treat tachycardia or bradycardia.

Of course, acupuncture and moxibustion treatment does not only need to prick that acupoint to treat the disease, but also needs to cooperate with other acupoints to achieve the desired effect.But now Liu Ya just wanted to test her mastery of acupuncture points, so she chose an acupuncture point that was not too difficult and could see the effect for her experiment.

When the needle went down, maybe her technique was wrong, or maybe she used too much force, she just felt a pain in her wrist and then went numb and completely unconscious.

Liu Ya jumped, quickly pulled out the needle, and pressed the bleeding point with her fingertips.After a while, feeling the numbness disappeared, he let out a long breath of relief.

But having a reaction is better than no reaction, Liu Ya understands that she has found the right acupoints, but the acupuncture technique still needs to be strengthened.After all, curing diseases and saving lives is completely different from killing people with a knife. She wants to apply the stability, accuracy and ruthlessness of using a knife to acupuncture and moxibustion.

Try again, still "Neiguan point".Liu Ya carefully thought about the TV documentaries she had watched about Chinese medicine, and how regular Chinese medicine practitioners perform acupuncture.When the second needle went down, she kept five points of strength, and did not pierce the silver needle all at once, but twisted it slowly after entering the flesh, so that the silver needle was slowly pierced between the acupuncture points.

Still feeling numb, but less sore.At the same time, Liu Ya felt that her heart rate had changed, and even her breathing seemed to slow down.Feeling carefully, although it is not obvious, the heart rate must have been affected.

Next, Liu Ya tried a few more acupuncture points. As long as it was not a death point and did not have too much impact on her body, she tried it on her own body.Of course, it had to be within her reach, if it was the acupuncture points on her back, she would have no way to do it.

Once the acupoints were pierced, Liu Ya was already sweating all over her body, as if she had been drenched by the rain, her hands were sore from exhaustion.The body felt even weaker.This is not physical fatigue, but mental extreme tension.After all, it was her first acupuncture and it was an experiment on her own, so Liu Ya was still a little uncertain and needed to be more cautious.

When Liu Ya relaxed, she suddenly heard Liu Dacheng calling herself loudly: "Ya'er, Ya'er!"

"Hey, here we come." Liu Ya promised, quickly rolled up the silver needle with cowhide, stuffed it under the pillow, opened the door and ran out.

"Father, what's the matter?" Liu Ya saw Liu Dacheng lying on the window when she went out, trying to lean out, looking at her anxiously.

"Ya'er, did you fall asleep just now? Dad is fine, but he didn't get up after seeing you for more than an hour, and he didn't hear a response after calling you several times, so he was worried about you." Liu Da was slightly relieved when he saw Liu Ya come out. , and asked again: "Why are you sweating so much? Have you had a nightmare?"

"Oh, yes. I guess I've been too tired and slept too soundly these days, so I didn't hear you call me, and I was caught in a nightmare." Liu Ya said, reaching out to wipe the sweat on her forehead, feeling that the sweat on her body was also dripping with sweat.And she didn't expect that more than an hour had passed before she knew it.

But when Liu Dacheng called her before, she really didn't hear a sound.Could it be that she pricked some acupuncture point, so her ears became deaf?Yes, that must be the case, otherwise with her vigilance, she wouldn't be completely inaudible even if she fell asleep.

Thinking of this, Liu Ya couldn't help being afraid, feeling that she was really messed up.But after carefully recalling the explanation in the medical book, I feel that this situation is also normal, as long as the needle is pulled out, it will recover soon.However, the timing of the needles and the technique of acupuncture are all particular, and it is possible to completely deaf or maintain a deaf-mute state for a period of time.

Liu Ya's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized that she had found another method of using silver needles.If she can accurately use the silver needles to prick the acupuncture points, and if the effect after using the needles is as she wishes, then it is really one more stunt than killing people directly when she was a killer.

"Ya'er, you've been really tired recently, you'd better go back and have a good rest. Dad won't bother you this time. But it's already noon, you should eat something before going to sleep." Looking thoughtful, she thought that she was too tired to make money these days, and felt distressed.

Only then did Liu Ya come to her senses, walked into Liu Dacheng's room and poured herself a glass of water, then said, "Father, I'm not tired at all, thinking about making money makes me more energetic. What do you want at noon?" What to eat, I'm going to cook now."

Liu Dacheng said: "I don't eat it, Dad never eats lunch. You can cook something yourself if you like. You can also scramble a few eggs or boil a bowl of noodles."

Liu Ya knew in her heart that the reason why her father didn't eat lunch was probably because the family was poor and the food saved was given to their siblings.Now... probably because he is afraid of eating too much and causing trouble for them.
