Chapter 14: Documents Received
No gurgling sound came out of her throat, and crystal liquid flowed from the corners of her excited mouth.
Hearing the sound, Director Pan hurried over, picked up the folded towel beside him and wiped the old lady's saliva, and said with concern, "Mom, you heard it, your son found a young doctor for you. She is very skilled in medicine and may be able to help you stand up again, so don't get excited and cooperate well."
"My dear Qin, thank you for your help." He said, and stepped aside to give the place to Qin Qingye.
Qin Qing also walked over, looked at the old lady with a crooked mouth and squinting eyes, and silently took her pulse.
"She was paralyzed on her left side. After various treatments, her right upper limb regained vitality, but it didn't last long, causing her lower body to become completely paralyzed. She was also depressed and had suffered a stroke. In addition, she had a cerebral thrombosis. Well, if she waits another half a year, I'm afraid the only thing she'll be able to move is her eyes."
"As a result, the patient lies in bed all day, unable to speak or move her limbs. Over time, she will inevitably develop negative emotions, which is not good for her treatment and health. Therefore, while treating the old lady's physical illness, we must also pay attention to her mental health."
Director Pan's heart tightened, and his usually dignified eyes seemed a little uneasy and apprehensive. "So, what about now? How confident are you?"
Qin Qing also glanced at him, "Nine points, I'm very afraid of being proud!"
Director Pan: ...
"Since the old lady has been ill for a long time and is in danger of having a stroke, and the disease is in the brain, we recommend using the Guiling Eight Methods in combination with the Ziwu Liuzhu. Among the eight meridians, the Du Meridian can directly enter the brain. Therefore, the Houxi Meridian that intersects with the Du Meridian and the Shen Meridian that matches the Yu Meridian are the first choice."
Director Pan had never heard of this method before, so he asked curiously, "Eight Methods of Turtle Spirit? Ziwu Liuzhu?"
Qin Qing also explained softly, "The Eight Methods of Turtle Spirit, the Yin-Yang and Five Elements theory and the Taoist health-preserving concept. This method mainly uses eight simple movements to regulate the body's qi and blood circulation, strengthen the physique, delay aging, and help prevent and treat diseases."
"Ziwu Liuzhu refers to the peak time of the flow of qi and blood in the meridians of the human body, according to the acupuncture method of selecting the five transport points. The flow of qi and blood in the human body follows certain hours and routes within 24 hours a day. According to this theory, the qi and blood in the human body change with the changes of yin and yang and the five elements in nature, showing a certain periodicity and regularity."
Although Director Pan didn't understand, he vaguely grasped the key point, "So there are time and rules for acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine?"
Qin Qing also nodded in agreement. "Today's Chinese zodiac is Jiaxu. The time for the acupuncture point to open in the west after Jiaxu is Yin and Xu hours, which is exactly six o'clock now for treatment."
She took out a sterilized silver needle, asked Director Pan to leave, and instructed Zhao Yafang to strip off all the old lady's clothes.
Although the old lady has been paralyzed for 4 years, the atrophy of her muscles is not very obvious. Moreover, she does not have the sour and fishy smell unique to the elderly. This shows how responsible Zhao Yafang is as a daughter-in-law.
"The old lady was almost paralyzed, with symptoms of a stroke. She was so weak that she needed to regulate the circulation of qi and blood. She had acupuncture points all over her body, including Gongsun, Neiguan (heart, chest, stomach), Houxi, Shenmai (eyes, inner corners of the eye, canthus, neck, nape, ears, shoulders, small intestine, bladder), Linqi, Waiguan (eyes, sharp corners of the eye, neck, shoulders, behind the ears, gallbladder), Lieque, Zhaohai (lungs, laryngopharynx, chest diaphragm)."
"Next are the acupuncture points on the lower body: Zusanli, Weizhong, Xuehai, Yanglingquan, Yinlingquan, and Taichong—"
The old lady made a "hohoho" sound from her mouth and her eyes showed a strong desire to survive.
She felt it, a subtle tingling sensation in her body. As the silver needle penetrated deeper, streams of warm air flowed through her body. It was a long-lost feeling, as if the spring sunshine was shining on the dry earth.
Although the old lady couldn't open her eyes completely, she could feel the moisture in the corners of her eyes, which were tears of excitement.
Zhao Yafang didn't see Qin Qingye giving the acupuncture just now, but now she finally saw it and was instantly stunned!
The girl gently picked up a silver needle, which flashed a cold light in the sunlight.
She flicked her fingers slightly, and the silver needle quickly pierced the old lady's skin. Her movements were skillful and smooth, like a perfect painting, with every detail just right.
Her technique is unique and superb. It seems disorganized, but in fact it is unique. She skillfully adjusts the angle and depth of the silver needle.
Seeing the smooth acupuncture movements and the pair of slender jade fingers gracefully and flexibly, Zhao Yafang widened her eyes in shock.
Qin Qing also used his true energy and lightly lifted the tail of the silver needle. A trace of true energy that was invisible to the naked eye flowed into the body along the silver needle, while the tail of the needle made a buzzing sound.
"Alright! Although this acupuncture treatment cannot make the old lady recover all at once, it can at least restore some functions of her body. As long as the acupuncture treatment continues for another three days and she drinks the medicine I prescribed, the old lady will soon regain her intuition and can then slowly try to walk."
She withdrew her hand and turned back to explain to Zhao Yafang.
Zhao Yafang came back to her senses instantly, looking at her with excitement and admiration, praising her profusely, and even Qin Qing felt embarrassed by her praise.
For three consecutive days, Qin Qing gave acupuncture to the old lady. Although the old lady is still unable to walk, the symptoms of the stroke have been alleviated, her mouth is no longer crooked, her eyes are no longer slanted, and she can even speak intermittently.
The disease that had been sentenced to death by major hospitals underwent a huge change in just three days. If Director Pan did not realize that Qin Qing was also a miracle doctor with superb medical skills, he would have lived his life in vain.
"The acupuncture ends here. From now on, you will have to take medicine to strengthen your body. The old lady is old and has osteoporosis. She has suffered a lot in recent years. Remember not to be anxious to get out of bed. Stay in bed and turn over, move your arms and legs. When you have enough strength, it will be easy to get out of bed."
Qin Qing also packed up the silver needles and said, "After half a month of recuperation, you can try to get out of bed and walk around. Don't walk too much at once. Too much is as bad as too little. It's best to do it step by step."
Director Pan carefully noted her instructions and said gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work, Qin girl. Let's eat here tonight. Your aunt Fang has made a lot of delicious food, all of which are your favorites. You must show your favor!"
Qin Qing also gladly accepted it. "Of course I have to honor you. Aunt Fang's cooking is delicious, especially the sweet and sour spareribs, which are much better than the ones my old man cooks."
Director Pan already knew Qin Qingye's background and that she was alone now. He felt a lot of sympathy for her, but more of it was admiration and respect for her.
Yes, respect.
You know, in today's society, traditional Chinese medicine is in decline and Western medicine is dominant. If there were a rising star like Qin Qingye, Chinese traditional medicine would not be suppressed by Western medicine to the point where it cannot even raise its head.
Especially in the eyes of the world, if he can cure hemiplegia and stroke caused by cerebral thrombosis, which are terminal illnesses, if he is not a miracle doctor, then what can he be?
Moreover, he had a hunch that with the appearance of Qin Qingye, the revival of traditional Chinese medicine was just around the corner.
Even if it is impossible to restore traditional Chinese medicine to its former glory, the patients Qin Qingye has treated and the pills he has made are enough to make this merit flourish.
By then, he, the recommender, will also be able to drink a mouthful of the thick broth along with Qin Qing.
With that thought in mind, Director Pan's mind immediately opened up. He handed her the freshly-issued medical qualification certificate and said with a smile, "I spent three days rushing to get it for you. Let's see how it goes."
Qin Qing also took the red book, on which was written in gold-plated characters: Physician Qualification Certificate of the People's Republic of China
She flipped open the page and saw her beautiful photo without makeup. Below it were: issuing authority, issuer, certificate code, date of issue, and level of issue.
Among them, the issuance date was advanced, which also shows Director Pan’s thoughtfulness and prudence.
If anyone finds out that she was practicing medicine before the date, her guilt would not be underestimated.
Of course, the most important thing here is the level: Intermediate Chinese Medicine Qualification Certificate
Qin Qing also sighed in her heart. It was really not easy for her to spend three days just to get this small certificate!
