Courtyard House: Wudang Disciple Sweeps Through the Compound

He was also filled with curiosity, wanting to see for himself just how amazing the superb medical skills the young man spoke of really were.

With that, Dean Chen hurriedly led Chen Wenqi toward the ward.

As soon as Chen Wenqi entered the ward, he saw an elderly man with gray hair lying on the bed.

The old man's face was as pale as a thin sheet of white paper, devoid of any color.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Wenqi immediately reached out and placed his hand on the old man's wrist to take his pulse.

He used only conventional Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis techniques, without employing any special abilities, to thoroughly understand the elderly man's physical condition.

Chen Wenqi withdrew his hand from the old man's wrist and slowly said, "The old man's lungs have become cancerous, and the cancer cells have spread to one-third of the lungs, which is a typical symptom of late-stage lung cancer."

"In addition, the elderly man has had several old injuries relapse."

"These old injuries and cancer are affecting and dragging each other down, causing his own immunity to decline rapidly and his physical condition to get worse and worse."

Upon hearing this, Dean Chen and several accompanying medical experts were all stunned and speechless for a long time.

Chen Wenqi was able to describe the old leader's condition with absolute accuracy simply by taking his pulse.

This pulse diagnosis technique can only be described as miraculous, far surpassing those of professional medical practitioners who have been in the field for many years.

Suppressing his shock, Dean Chen hurriedly asked, "Young comrade, in your opinion, can the old commander's illness still be cured?"

Chen Wenqi nodded and said confidently, "It can be treated."

"Please remove the breathing mask from the old man's face first, and then go and get an empty basin. We'll need it during the treatment later."

Upon hearing this, Dean Chen's face immediately showed difficulty and hesitation.

He exclaimed in surprise, "Oh... if this breathing mask is removed, won't the old commander immediately experience difficulty breathing? That's too dangerous!"

Chen Wenqi said calmly, "You don't need to worry too much about that. I know what I'm doing, and there won't be any problems."

After saying this, Chen Wenqi took out a cloth bag containing gold and silver needles from his backpack.

He simply spread the cloth wrapping out on the table next to him.

Rows of glittering gold needles and gleaming silver needles were neatly arranged in the cloth bag, instantly appearing before everyone's eyes.

This scene caused everyone present to hold their breath involuntarily, their eyes fixed on the needles on the table.

Chen Wenqi selected three silver needles and one gold needle from among many needles.

After carefully disinfecting the needles, he accurately inserted them into several key acupoints on the old man's body without hesitation.

Then, he pinched the end of the gold needle with his fingers and slowly rotated it.

Then, an unbelievable and magical scene unfolded.

The gold and silver needles inserted into the old man's body began to vibrate violently at an extremely fast frequency.

If someone gets close enough to observe carefully, they can clearly see a faint warmth emanating from the needle.

Seeing this, Dean Chen, who was standing by and watching the entire treatment process, couldn't help but tremble.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

How...how is this possible?

Could this acupuncture technique be the legendary "Burning Mountain Fire" acupuncture technique that has long been lost?

Chen Wenqi noticed Dean Chen's unusual behavior and glanced at him in surprise.

He never expected that someone in this place would be able to recognize the "Burning Mountain Fire" acupuncture technique he used.

It seems that Dean Chen is indeed a person with a reputation that is not undeserved; he really has some real talent and learning.

In fact, the "Burning Mountain Fire" acupuncture technique originated from the ancient Taiyi Divine Needle. Its core principle is closely related to the "heart fire" of the human body and has a unique therapeutic mechanism.

Traditional Chinese medicine theory emphasizes the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements. The elderly man's lungs had been damaged for a long time, which eventually led to lung cancer.

In the Five Elements theory, the lungs belong to "metal", and the "Burning Mountain Fire" acupuncture technique is a highly effective acupuncture technique for lung diseases.

However, the application of the Taiyi Divine Needle requires the practitioner to control the silver needles using their own internal energy, which places extremely high demands on the practitioner.

The entire acupuncture process is extremely mentally and physically demanding, and most people simply cannot endure it.

After only a short while, even Chen Wenqi, whose strength far surpassed that of ordinary people, had fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

Although his internal energy was very abundant, it was not lacking.

However, to accurately guide the internal energy through the silver needles to act on the elderly person's meridians and internal organs, one needs to be highly focused and cannot be distracted in the slightest.

Even the slightest mistake could lead to treatment failure or even cause secondary harm to the elderly.

Time slipped away quietly, second by second.

It took Chen Wenqi a full half hour to complete several rounds of needle manipulation, a process that was extremely meticulous.

Everyone else in the ward knew the importance of this treatment.

They were afraid that even the slightest sound they made would disturb Chen Wenqi, who was administering acupuncture, so they held their breath the entire time and dared not make the slightest noise.

About seven or eight minutes later, Chen Wenqi finally stopped what he was doing and reached for the empty basin that had been prepared in advance.

He carefully twisted and pulled out the gold and silver needles from the old man's body one by one, and then gently helped the old man sit up from the bed.

At this moment, the old man's breathing had become noticeably more stable, and his previously tightly closed eyes slowly opened as he gradually regained consciousness.

Immediately afterward, the old man opened his mouth and began to vomit violently, vomiting all the filth accurately into the empty basin that Chen Wenqi had promptly handed to him.

The vomit piled up in the basin emitted an unbearable stench, causing the other people in the ward to involuntarily take a few steps back, wrinkling their noses and looking uncomfortable.

The old man vomited for more than a minute before gradually stopping. Surprisingly, a faint rosy glow appeared on his originally pale face, completely changing his previous state of being on the verge of death.

Chen Wenqi handed the basin full of vomit to Dean Chen beside him and instructed, "What the old man vomited up is all cancer cells in his body. You should send someone to dispose of it properly as soon as possible to avoid any potential problems. Also, prepare some warm salt water for the old man to rinse his mouth and clean his oral cavity."

"This... Comrade Chen, are you saying that all this vomit is really cancer cells?" Dean Chen took the basin with both hands, his face full of astonishment, his tone filled with disbelief.

Can acupuncture alone make a patient vomit up cancer cells?

The fact that acupuncture could achieve such miraculous therapeutic effects was something he had never heard of or seen before, completely overturning his years of accumulated medical knowledge.

"Yes, these are cancer cells," Chen Wenqi replied with great certainty. "You can arrange a comprehensive physical examination for the elderly to verify my statement."

However, it should be noted that only about 70-80% of the cancer cells in his body have been cleared. The remaining cancer cells, along with the damage to his lungs, will require further treatment with herbal decoctions to ensure a full recovery.

"Good, good, good! We will definitely do as you say!" Dean Chen was so excited that his voice trembled slightly. He knew very well that he had met a peerless genius with the heritage of ancient forensic medicine.

What's even more astonishing is that this medical genius is so young, looking no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, which is truly a rare sight.

"Little miracle doctor, how is my father now? Is he in any danger?" Yang Weiguo, who had been anxiously watching over him, hurriedly stepped forward to ask after seeing the old man close his eyes again after vomiting, his voice full of undisguised concern.

At this moment, the old man seemed to have exhausted a lot of energy from vomiting, and his eyes closed again. This made Yang Weiguo's heart, which had just been at ease, jump up again, and he felt very uneasy.

"Don't worry, he's out of danger," Chen Wenqi said calmly. "With a few months of proper care, he'll be almost fully recovered."

"Really? That's wonderful!" Upon hearing this, Yang Weiguo's body trembled slightly with extreme excitement, and the huge weight in his heart finally lifted.

Our patriarch is the pillar of the entire family. If something were to happen to him, even with the connections and resources he left behind, the family would inevitably face the predicament of being forgotten once the person leaves. The family's status might plummet and decline from then on.

Seeing Yang Weiguo's ecstatic expression, Chen Wenqi shook his head helplessly and said nothing more. Instead, he found a chair next to him, sat down, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

Although he appeared to be handling the treatment with ease and confidence, he was dealing with a difficult and serious illness like late-stage lung cancer, which had actually taken a toll on his mental and physical energy, and he was indeed feeling very tired at the moment.

"Little Divine Doctor, I was blind before and failed to recognize your greatness. I offended you with my words. I sincerely apologize to you again. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."

Yang Weiguo walked up to Chen Wenqi and spoke with utmost sincerity, his tone full of apology.

He had indeed looked down on Chen Wenqi because of his young age, and he hadn't been careful with his words, which inevitably led to some offenses.

But now he has come to a clear understanding that Chen Wenqi is a truly exceptional doctor with outstanding medical skills and high moral character.
