Chapter 861 Sharing Acupuncture Experience, He Puren's Research on Fire Needle (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)
This one isn't much worse than the last one.

In the end, it was Old Cheng who calmed down first. He knew that he had a lot of experience treating these people with dialects, so he didn't care too much about their identities.

Of course, the most important thing is the confidence that Fang Yan has in his medical skills.

Mr. Cheng had never seen such a learning ability as dialect.

"Then... tell me about your experience treating this person?" Professor He Puren asked Fang Yan tentatively.

Fang Yan nodded and said:
"Alright, but the reaction during this treatment was a bit strange. Please don't think I'm exaggerating or making things mysterious."

Upon hearing the dialect, Old Cheng shook his head:

"Hey, we know what the Thirteen Ghost Needles are for."

Professor He Puren also said:

"Of course, Sun Simiao told us when he was choosing his name, otherwise why wouldn't he have chosen a nicer one?"

Fang Yan nodded:
"Okay, since you know, I'll tell you about it."

He paused, cleared his throat, and then said:
"Here's the thing, we've been filming a movie recently, and one of the actresses has a friend who is this person..."

Fang Yan then recounted the whole story of why Ding Pei had come to him, as well as the circumstances surrounding her treatment.

As Cheng Lao and He Puren listened to Fang Yan's account, they were not only amazed by the miraculous effect of the Thirteen Ghost Needles on Ding Pei, but also by how clearly Fang Yan could remember the events.

He didn't overlook any of the details.

It truly gave the two of them a real sense of immersion.

"That's how things are," Fang Yan said, looking at the two of them.

Professor Cheng and Professor He Puren exchanged a glance and then began their research.

Based on the knowledge system that Master Cheng currently possesses, combined with the information about the Thirteen Ghost Needles he previously obtained from Chu Qiaonan, Master Cheng said that he felt his understanding of the Thirteen Ghost Needles was not as profound as Fang Yan's.

At least he can now use the dialect, but since his last chat with Chu Qiaonan, he is still in the stage of researching the theory.

While he can be said to be quite meticulous, without practical experience, he is naturally far inferior to a dialect expert who has been tested twice and achieved results in both tests.

As for Professor He Puren, this was his first time encountering the Thirteen Ghost Needles technique; he had only heard of it before.

The person in front of him was the first person he knew who could use the Thirteen Ghost Needles technique.

"I still need to study these two medical cases of yours," Old Cheng said to Fang Yan.

“Okay, you can study it.” Fang Yan nodded and said.

He actually came here to share his medical cases, and since Professor Cheng was interested in them, he naturally gave him some research material.

Fang Yan originally thought that Professor Cheng had already made some research results, but it seems that he has not yet devoted himself to the research of the Thirteen Ghost Needles, so he will not be able to enjoy the results of his research.

"If you make any research findings later, please remember to share them," Fang Yan said to Professor Cheng.

Mr. Cheng said:

"Of course I'll never forget you."

After saying that, he pointed to "The Complete Explanation of the Thirteen Ghost Needles" and asked:
"By the way, your book..."

Fang Yan said to him:
"Please bring your camera to take pictures. I brought it here so you can keep a record of it."

"However, I cannot give you this original."

Old Cheng said:
"That's alright."

"I'll have someone get the camera you used to take pictures of Chinese medicine when you were editing the book; that's even better."

Fang Yan nodded. Cheng Lao was referring to the camera used to photograph medicinal materials in "Traditional Chinese Medicine Processing". Previously, it had been used by Meng Jimin and belonged to the People's Medical Publishing House next door.

Mr. Cheng picked up the phone on the table and called Editor-in-Chief Xia of the publishing house to borrow a camera.

Professor He Puren then spoke to the dialect:

"Can I take a look too?"

"Of course." Fang Yan didn't hesitate at all. In the academic and clinical fields, the only one who could rival Master Cheng's acupuncture skills was this big shot who had just returned.

Others are either severely specialized and can only treat certain specific ailments.

Others are either academically strong but lacking in practical skills, or practically strong but lacking in academic skills.

Among the younger generation, there are quite a few well-rounded individuals, but apart from Chu Qiaonan and Li Zhengji, there aren't many outstanding ones.

Therefore, we still need to let these two do the research.

If possible, it would be even better to bring Professor Shi Xuemin from Tianjin along.

Unfortunately, they're busy in Tianjin.

Upon hearing Fang Yan's agreement, Professor He Puren rubbed his hands together happily and said with anticipation:

"That's perfect. I just got back and haven't been assigned any tasks yet, so I'll just stay here and study this acupuncture technique."

Taking advantage of this moment, Fang Yan said to He Puren:
"Professor He, do you have any acupuncture case studies to share?"

"For example, I would like to study your medical cases from abroad."

With such an acupuncture expert here, it's natural to expect to get something out of him.

"Yes!" He Puren answered readily.

He said to the dialect, "I brought all the medical records back, but I left them at home. Where do you live? I'll bring them to you later."

Upon hearing that the other party was offering to take him to his home, Fang Yan quickly said:

"Oh dear, that's so embarrassing..."

He Puren waved his hand:

"Well, I'm just killing time anyway."

Fang Yan said to him:
"That's too much trouble. I happen to be free right now, so why don't we go get it now?"

Old Cheng said:
"You guys go ahead, I'll take pictures here."

Professor He Puren said:
“My home is at the Capital Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine affiliated with Capital Medical University, but it’s a bit far.”

Mr. Cheng said:

"It's okay, he has a car."

"Yes, that's right." Fang Yan nodded.

He Puren was somewhat surprised:

"They've already assigned you a car?"

He doesn't even have a car yet.

He said in dialect:

"No, it's a car given to me by an overseas Chinese businessman friend. It's an old car made in 1955."

He Puren nodded, and said with some envy:

"Oh, these overseas Chinese businessmen are quite generous."

Who would have thought that this 23-year-old young man in front of me not only treats overseas Chinese businessmen at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, but also owns his own car? When I was 23, I only had my own small clinic.

Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable!

Following the dialect, we arrived at the parking lot and saw what the dialect called "old-fashioned cars".

Seeing the gull-wing door open, He Puren was somewhat bewildered.

It's a little different from what I expected.

To avoid appearing naive, he forced himself to remain calm and sat down.

Then, together with Fang Yan, they headed towards the Capital Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.

On the way, Fang Yan inquired about He Puren's situation in the country.

Upper Volta became a French colony in 1895 and was part of French West Africa.

1958年12月11日成为自治共和国，1960年8月5日正式独立，定国名为上沃尔特共和国。

After independence, the military launched several coups, resulting in a relatively unstable political situation.

The economy is mainly based on agriculture and animal husbandry, with a weak industrial base and relatively scarce resources.

When He Puren recounted his impression of the place, his overall impression could be summarized as follows:

Chaos, poverty, hunger, and dishonesty.

Most of the patients treated in those medical records were high-ranking government officials.

It contains many strange diseases, so its reference value in the country is actually not very high.

Therefore, He Puren plans to give Fang Yan some of his medical records and insights from his time practicing medicine in China.

"Thank you so much, Professor He," Fang Yan said to the generous He Puren.

"Oh, don't be so polite," Professor He Puren waved his hand.

Then he asked in dialect:

"By the way, I've been researching a new acupuncture technique lately. I wonder if you'd be interested in participating?"

Fang Yan was taken aback and asked:

"What new acupuncture technique?"

"Fire needles," He Puren said.

Fang Yan's expression was somewhat strange. He Puren's fire needle therapy was quite famous in later generations, and he had learned it in school.

The fire needles used by He Puren are usually specially made, with a thicker body and a sharper tip. They are generally made of high-temperature resistant materials such as tungsten alloy to ensure that they maintain good toughness and hardness after heating.

In his works such as "Acupuncture for Pain Relief" and "Clinical Application of Acupuncture Rhymes," he elaborated on the theory and clinical application experience of fire needling.

I learned this dialect in school.

Therefore, He Puren said that he has now mastered the fire needle technique he was researching.

The kind of person who understands even more than He Puren.

Am I supposed to guide the original author?
PS: I got another 100 monthly votes, so after finishing this chapter, I still owe everyone 53000 words.

There will be more this afternoon.
