Chapter 289 The teacher's misunderstanding has really become stronger
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the balance of yin and yang. Whether it is using medication or acupuncture, there is only one purpose, which is to strengthen the body and eliminate evil, helping the patient's body return to a state of yin and yang balance.
Taking medication too quickly can cause many unpredictable consequences.
Therefore, the medicinal properties of Chinese medicine are usually mild.
It emphasizes gradual progress, not seeking victory, but first seeking stability.
This is also why ancient Chinese medicine never required patients to sign a lot of risk consent forms.
Because it's not necessary.
After giving the patient a dose of medicine, diagnosis is made through pulse taking and it is discovered that the treatment is ineffective or the condition has not improved but has worsened.
Just stop taking the medicine immediately.
It will never cause the patient to die or be seriously injured.
After Li Quan felt Sophie's pulse, he was still a little worried, so he used the Observation Diagnosis Technique to diagnose her.
"The color on her face has increased a little, from a very light red to pink, indicating that her blood-forming ability has recovered. Her big, dark eyes are shining with a fascinating look, and she is still full of spirituality. In addition to a hint of affection, there is even a little more charm that was not there before. Tsk tsk, after experiencing this life-and-death catastrophe and then being nourished by love, this little girl has not only grown up, but also become more charming and more attractive."
Look at her spirit platform again.
Although the spiritual platform is only an inch in size, it is the place where human essence is gathered.
What is essence?
It is the spiritual energy that manifests the essence of life.
If a person's spirit platform is dark, it means that the person's life essence has been seriously depleted, or he has been unhappy recently and suffered a lot of setbacks, or he has a serious illness and his body is exhausted and weak.
Lingtai and Lingtai acupoint are related, but they belong to two completely different parts.
Many people cannot distinguish this point.
The term Lingtai originated from Taoism. People who practice Taoism believe in gods and often say that there are gods above their heads. In fact, these gods are not ghosts as people imagine.
But the essence of man.
Where does this essence rise from?
From the forehead.
There is another origin of this story. In ancient times, every household would burn firewood to cook. When burning firewood, the smoke would rise up through the chimney and then rush to the sky.
Taoism originated from life and gained insights from these common sense of life. Therefore, it is believed that when the essence of human life reaches a certain level, the essence will emerge from the forehead and then rise to three feet above the head like smoke in a chimney.
This should be the original interpretation of the saying "there is a god above your head".
Later, it was deified by feudal rulers, making the people revere the royal power and theocracy, and thus it evolved into another interpretation.
It is said that there are gods watching over you from above, and if you do bad things, you will be punished.
In fact, the feudal rulers deliberately distorted the meaning in order to better control the people.
Lingtai is located on the forehead, slightly above the Yingtang.
Let's talk about Lingtai acupoint, also known as lung bottom. It belongs to the Du channel and is located on the back, in the middle of the depression below the spinous process of the sixth thoracic vertebra. The posterior branch of the sixth thoracic nerve and the posterior branch of the sixth intercostal artery are distributed here.
It is a very important acupuncture point.
It has a close connection with Lingtai and originates from the lungs.
The lungs are the main organ of respiration.
In order for the essence to emerge from the spiritual platform, there must be a driving force.
Every time a person exhales, the vital energy in his lungs rises and then appears outside. When he inhales, the vital energy shrinks and is held inside.
Just like the rising and setting of the sun.
This process repeats itself over and over again.
Therefore, a skilled Chinese medicine practitioner can roughly determine the patient's vital condition simply by looking at the patient's spirit.
Li Quan stared at Sophie's smooth forehead and observed her carefully.
The luster is subtle, like a young bud showing, and this luster is very strong, gathered but not dispersed, giving people a feeling of tenacity and full of potential.
This shows that Sophie's life essence, which was about to be extinguished, has taken a new turn.
"Hey, why don't you say something! You keep staring at my face. Am I that beautiful?" Sophie said shyly.
"You are really that beautiful, but you are just vain." Li Quan nodded seriously.
Bang bang bang!
The pink fists fell on him madly.
"Let you laugh at me!" She pouted.
"Haha, I just like to enjoy this kind of free massage. It's a pity that the strength is not enough." Li Quan laughed happily. "To tell you the truth, I just took your pulse and it was very good. Your body is getting better. I believe that as long as you continue the treatment, you will be discharged from the hospital soon."
Li Quan told her the good news.
It can also give her more confidence.
To overcome the disease, treatment is important, but having a firm, optimistic and positive attitude is equally important.
"Really? Are you trying to cheer me up on purpose?" Sophie stared at him.
"It's absolutely true. You can actually feel it yourself. The pain in your body is getting better day by day, your energy is increasing, and your appetite is increasing." Li Quan nodded seriously.
"Haha, I'm just asking casually, is it necessary to be so serious?" Sophie laughed happily. She already believed that her condition was getting better. She was more confident in defeating the disease.
"Sophie, to treat your leukemia, in addition to acupuncture and Chinese medicine, you have to do one more thing." Li Quan took the opportunity to talk to her about business.
"As long as my disease can be cured, I would be willing to do ten or even a hundred things, not to mention just one. Just tell me." She looked at Li Quan with a determined face.
"I will teach you a set of physical exercise movements that require the coordination of breathing and mind. And you need to practice it every day. Can you do it?" Li Quan asked seriously.
"able!"
Her answer was firm and powerful.
"Okay, come with me to a place now and I'll teach you how to practice."
Li Quan was waiting for her to say this.
Take her outside.
"Auntie, I will take Sophie to learn a set of fitness exercises. She will need to do this set of gymnastics every day to exercise her body and cooperate with the treatment." After walking out of the ward, Li Quan took the initiative to explain to Sophie's mother.
So as to avoid misunderstanding.
After all, he took Sophie away alone late at night, so it would probably take him a long time to learn the Five Animal Exercises.
By then, her mother would think that the two of them had done something out of line.
"Then you better be careful!" Sophie's mother did not object.
Li Quan greeted the nurse on duty again, then took Sophie downstairs in the elevator and went straight to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Department.
Since it is already past eight o'clock in the evening, there are not many people in the hospital's scientific research and teaching building.
Only the light in Laboratory No. 4 was still on.
"Have Professor Aixen and the others not returned to the hotel to rest yet?" Li Quan remembered that Laboratory No. 4 was temporarily vacated for use by American experts.
I didn’t expect that foreigners are still studying it so late.
Li Quan was moved by their dedication to research and felt admiration for them.
No wonder they have made such a big name in the United States and become the top experts and team in the field of hematology. The sweat and hard work they put in behind the scenes are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Li Quan did not disturb these American experts.
If Aixen and his team can really develop a bioactive agent that can cure Sophie, Sophie will have double insurance.
"This is the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Department of our hospital. The space inside is very large and usually no one comes to disturb you. You can come here every morning and evening to practice the gymnastics I teach you. Of course, if there is nothing special, I will definitely accompany you."
Li Quan opened the door with the key and turned on the light.
"Wow, is this where you usually work? It's so spacious. Even bigger than our dean's office."
Sophie was shocked and very envious of Li Quan.
To have such a large office in the hospital is a privilege only afforded to the hospital director.
"Haha, do you think this is my office alone? The Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Department was just established not long ago and hasn't started recruiting people yet, so I'm the only one here."
Li Quan smiled and moved all the chairs and tables aside to make more space.
"Now you are ready. I will teach you the whole set of movements. Just follow me. I will explain the key points of the movements to you."
Li Quan himself is actually just a beginner.
It can be said that I am teaching and learning at the same time.
He first taught it twice in slow motion, and then connected the whole set of movements for Sophie to practice.
"Uh... this, this... the apprentice hits the master!"
Li Quan stared with eyes wide open in disbelief as he watched Sophie complete the entire set of Five Animal Exercises.
She memorized the entire set of movements after only two sessions, and mastered all the essentials of the movements . Even if there were any shortcomings during practice, she would quickly adjust them after noticing them.
This little girl's talent is a little too terrifying.
"How is it? It's not bad!" Sophie asked with a slightly proud smile.
" Not only can you do it, you have a god-level talent. Have you learned this set of gymnastics moves before?" Li Quan asked in surprise.
"As a girl, I won't learn such ugly gymnastics! But I have studied dance and passed the 13th level dance exam a few years ago. So I can learn the moves you taught me very quickly."
Sophie liked to see Li Quan's surprised expression.
No wonder this little girl learns so quickly.
It turns out that I have a basic dance foundation.
As far as Li Quan knew, if one could pass the 13th-level dance exam, one would be considered a semi-professional dancer.
"No wonder you're so talented!"
Li Quan nodded in sudden realization.
It's a good thing that she was able to learn the entire set of exercises of Wu Qin Xi so quickly.
Time is life.
While her condition has not yet deteriorated to the second stage, the difficulty of treatment is much lower now, and she can suffer less.
"Now I will teach you the breathing method that is specifically used with this set of exercises. Remember, you must concentrate your mind and use your mind to guide the Qi, so that the Qi flows through all the meridians and sinks to the Dantian."
Li Quan began to teach her the corresponding breathing method.
This is the true core of the Five Animal Play.
"Why does it feel weird? It's a bit like practicing some kind of magical skill in TV dramas?" Sophie asked with a smile, frowning slightly.
"Then just treat it as a successful method and practice it. As long as it can cure your leukemia, it will be fine."
Li Quan didn't explain much.
"Come on, let's start. Take a deep breath, then exhale the foul air in your stomach and get rid of all distracting thoughts. While doing the first movement, inhale, and use your mind to guide the inhaled air to flow to your left hand, directly to the end of your middle finger..."
In fact, it was also the first time for Li Quan to practice the Five Animal Exercises in conjunction with the breathing method.
He did it very slowly, patiently explaining the key points of each movement and the method of breathing.
This time, Sophie was obviously a slow learner.
Sometimes I need to repeat the teaching five or six times before she can understand.
After Li Quan taught Sophie the first level of breathing technique, he also practiced it alongside her.
When he first started practicing, Li Quan only felt a little heat in his lower abdomen. Gradually, he felt a sense of ants crawling in his dantian.
After practicing a few more times, something even more magical happened.
He felt that with every breath he took, there seemed to be a trace of special energy flowing through the meridians in his body.
As long as he was distracted for the slightest bit and his mind scattered, that extremely tiny strand of energy would disappear.
"Is this the legendary inner force?"
Li Quan has just started practicing the Five Animal Exercises breathing method and is not sure.
For now, I don’t know what the use of that weak energy is.
With a seeking heart, he practiced repeatedly and tirelessly.
Over and over again.
Every time you practice, that tiny bit of energy will grow a little bit stronger.
This fascinated Li Quan a little.
Before I knew it, it was almost midnight.
Li Quan and Sophie were so absorbed in practicing the Five Animal Exercises that they didn't notice the passage of time at all.
Sophie did not directly learn the Five Animals Exercises breathing method from Hua Tuo. Although Li Quan taught her everything, she still could not get the hang of it when practicing. She needed to ponder it over and over again to comprehend the essence of it on her own.
“Boom boom boom!”
The sudden knock on the door startled both of them.
"Who is it? Here I come!"
Li Quan walked over and opened the door.
As he lifted his foot, he realized that his steps seemed to have become lighter. He couldn't put his finger on it, but it was easier and quicker than before.
In the past, it seemed like I was walking with a heavy burden on my shoulders.
Now it's like the burden on my shoulders has been lifted off, and I feel a lot more relaxed.
This should be the benefit of practicing Wuqinxi.
It seems that practicing Wu Qin Xi for a long time can really significantly improve the practitioner's physical fitness.
Li Quan was very excited and secretly made up his mind to be more diligent in the future and spend one or two hours each morning and evening practicing the Five Animal Exercises.
Not to mention becoming a super strong person, at least you can't be too weak.
Although we are now in a society ruled by law, and we don't need to rely on personal force to solve problems, but having many skills is always a burden, and having strong strength can not only protect yourself from malicious harm, but also protect your daughter and wife when necessary.
Li Quan opened the door, but he didn't expect that it was Professor Liu standing outside.
"Teacher! It's so late, why haven't you gone home yet?" Li Quan asked in surprise.
"I worked overtime today to perform an extremely difficult fallopian tube reshaping surgery, so I got off work a little late. What are you still doing in the office so late?" Professor Liu asked curiously.
"I taught my girlfriend a set of gymnastics to help her keep fit."
Li Quan opened the door completely and leaned slightly to allow Professor Liu to see what was going on inside the office.
"Oh——" Professor Liu's expression became strange and he glanced at Sophie inside.
In an instant, Sophie's pretty face turned red.
"It's getting late. Don't waste too much time. Let the girl go back to the ward to rest as soon as possible." Professor Liu reminded Li Quan and left.
These words have profound meaning no matter how you listen to them.
Li Quan was stunned at first, but when he finally understood what Professor Liu meant, he found that Professor Liu had already walked several meters away.
"Hey, hey, teacher, it's not what you think. Sophie and I are innocent, we didn't do anything..."
Professor Liu stopped and turned slowly.
"I didn't say what you did. In fact, there is no need to explain. We are all young people here and we all understand. Go to bed early." Professor Liu blinked and this time did not give Li Quan a chance to explain.
Turn directly into the elevator room next to it.
Li Quan couldn't help but look depressed.
It would be fine if I didn't explain it, but now the more I explain, the worse it gets. I'm afraid the teacher will misunderstand me.
He is fine.
I’m afraid that Sophie is too shy and would feel embarrassed.
Sure enough, as soon as I turned around, I saw Sophie's pretty face was as red as an apple.
"It's all your fault! Now I can't wash myself clean even if I jump into the Yellow River. I don't know how your teacher will laugh at me in the future!" Sophie glared at Li Quan fiercely.
"Auntie, don't be angry. You will be my wife sooner or later anyway, so let others misunderstand you." Li Quan looked innocent, he really didn't think about it in a wrong way.
Now that Professor Liu has misunderstood me, what else can I do?
I can only accompany and carefully coax my girlfriend.
"By the way, are you seeing any effects from the gymnastics I taught you? I mean, after practicing, do you feel any heat in the dantian area of your lower abdomen?" Li Quan was very smart and changed the subject tactfully.
"Well, it seems like a little bit, but not strong. I was just about to ask you, I always feel like there are ants crawling around." As expected, Sophie was successfully diverted by him and did not pursue the issue of her damaged reputation any further.
"It's good to have these feelings, which means your practice has paid off. Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the ward to call you, and we'll practice here again. It's already late, I'll take you back to the ward to rest."
When Li Quan sent her to the ward, Sophie's mother looked at him and Sophie with strange eyes.
Well, my future mother-in-law also has doubts in that regard.
Li Quan learned his lesson this time and refused to explain anything.
Let her guess.
"Auntie, I'll go back first. I'll come back to take over tomorrow morning." Li Quan said hello and quickly left the ward.
On the way home, he carefully felt the changes in his body.
It seems to have really become stronger.
It takes about ten minutes to walk from the hospital to where I live, or about five minutes if you run.
In the past, he would gasp for breath if he walked faster.
But today, he walked briskly to the community where the rental house was located, and he was only slightly out of breath.
The Five Animal Exercises breathing method is a bit too powerful.
Suddenly thinking of something, Li Quan directly checked the attributes of the miracle doctor's skills.
【Five Animal Exercises Breathing Method, 3% for beginners. 】
It seems that I was so focused on practicing just now that I didn't even notice that I gained 2 skill points.
At present, this miraculous medical skill is only at the entry level of 3%, but it is so powerful.
What if I were to advance to the minor success realm?
Is it possible to become a legendary master?
If nothing else, at least there would be no problem in helping Han Dong fight off the villain who was harassing Juanzi.
“Help… wuwu…”
Li Quan heard a faint cry for help from a woman.
It was about 12:20 in the morning, in the dead of night, who was calling for help? He found that his hearing seemed to be better than before.
