I just got divorced, and a rich and beautiful woman dragged me to get a marriage certificate.

Chen Mo looked up and met Liu Xin's gaze.

"Someone has fainted over there, let's go check it out!"

"OK!"

The two hurried over there, and when they arrived, a crowd had already formed a circle, three or four layers deep, peering inside.

"Excuse me, excuse me, I'm a doctor! Please make way!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd automatically parted to make way.

The two squeezed in.

There was an old man lying on the ground, his hair was white, his face was ashen, his lips were purple, and he was completely still.

A young girl, in her early twenties, was squatting nearby.

The girl's face was covered in tears. When she saw Liu Xin come in, she clung to her like a lifeline.

"Doctor! Doctor! Please save my grandfather!"

"Miss, please be patient, let me take a look first!"

Liu Xin squatted down, first feeling the old man's carotid artery, then opening his eyelids to look at his pupils, and then lying down to listen to his heartbeat.

A few seconds later, he looked up, his face grave: "We need to call 120 immediately and get him to the hospital!"

The girl panicked: "Aren't you a doctor? Can't you save my grandfather first?"

Liu Xin shook her head: "I run a clinic; I usually treat minor injuries like bruises and sprains, and headaches and fevers!"

"I can't handle this elderly person's condition; they must be taken to the hospital immediately."

The girl was somewhat desperate.

Chen Mo patted Liu Xin on the shoulder: "Old Liu, let me see!"

"Yes, yes, look! Your medical skills are so much better than mine!"

Liu Xinglian stepped aside.

Chen Mo had excellent grades in college and later pursued a master's degree, eventually working at a top-tier hospital in the city.

After graduating from university, Liu Xin opened a clinic to treat minor ailments like headaches and fevers.

In terms of medical skills, Liu Xin knew she couldn't compare to Chen Mo.

The girl looked at Chen Mo with teary eyes: "Please, please, save my grandfather!"

"Let's wait and see!"

Chen Mo squatted down next to the old man and placed three fingers on the old man's wrist.

The pulse is very weak and intermittent; it is almost impossible to feel at the cunkou (radial artery) position.

Chen Mo lifted the old man's eyelids and looked inside; his pupils were already dilated.

I pressed my ear against the old man's chest and listened for a few seconds. His heartbeat was extremely weak, less than forty beats per minute.

"Myocardial infarction, acute inferior myocardial infarction, he's already in shock!" Chen Mo made the judgment.

"Heart...heart attack?"

The girl's face changed, and her voice trembled, "Doctor, is it very serious?"

Liu Xin explained, "A heart attack is when a blood vessel in the heart becomes blocked, causing ischemia and necrosis of the heart muscle!"

"The elderly person's life is in danger at any moment."

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes again: "What can we do? Grandpa... he can't be hurt..."

Chen Mo smiled and reassured him, "It's nothing serious, a few acupuncture needles will do the trick!"

"You'd give me acupuncture for a heart attack?"

Liu Xin stared at Chen Mo in disbelief. "This is a heart attack! How can acupuncture work? We need to get him to the hospital right away!"

Chen Mo shook his head: "This area is a bustling commercial street. It will take at least twenty minutes for an ambulance to arrive. By the time they get to the hospital, the person will be long gone."

Chen Mo looked at the girl: "If you trust me, let me give you a few acupuncture needles, I guarantee you'll get better!"

The girl looked at Chen Mo with fear, doubt, and struggle in her eyes.

A stranger, a few needles, and you can save someone from a heart attack? That sounds like a scam!

Chen Mo wasn't in a hurry, and looked at the girl, saying:

Does your grandfather usually have high blood pressure? And it's not well controlled, he often feels dizzy.

The girl was stunned: "How...how did you know?"

"Does he also have diabetes? Does his blood sugar often spike above 15 after meals?"

The girl's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief: "Yes! Yes! How did you know?"

"Has he been complaining of chest tightness lately, and having trouble breathing at night, needing to prop himself up with pillows?"

The girl's mouth gaped open wide enough to fit an egg: "You...you...you even know this?"

"I'm a doctor, how would I know?"

Chen Mo smiled.

The girl took a deep breath, glanced at her ashen-faced grandfather on the ground, then at Chen Mo, and suddenly gritted her teeth, deciding to go all out:

"Okay! Go ahead and do it! Whether it cures you or not, I'll be grateful!"

Chen Mo nodded, took out a black velvet pouch from his pocket, and spread it out next to the old man.

A row of silver needles gleamed with a cool light in the sunlight.

Seeing that he was serious, Liu Xin couldn't help but try to dissuade him, saying, "Old Chen, are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Chen Mo nodded, and without saying a word, picked up the first needle, which was three inches long and as thin as a hair.

Those around her unconsciously held their breath, and Liu Xin, seeing this, stopped trying to stop them.

Using acupuncture to treat a heart attack seems absurd.

But Liu Xin believes that Lao Chen wouldn't joke around like that.

Chen Mo placed his hand on the old man's chest, his fingers gently sliding across the skin, searching for the right spot.

The Tanzhong acupoint.

The midpoint of the line connecting the two nipples is the Mu point of the Pericardium Meridian.

Chen Mo picked up the needle, held his breath, and inserted it. The needle tip pierced the skin and slowly penetrated deeper.

Twist and thrust.

The second acupuncture point is Neiguan (PC6).

Located on the inner side of the wrist, between the two tendons, it is the Luo-connecting point of the pericardium meridian and a key point for treating heart pain.

The third acupuncture point is the Xinshu acupoint.

On the back, 1.5 inches lateral to the spinous process of the fifth thoracic vertebra.

The elderly person needed to be turned to the side, and the needle was inserted through the clothes. Chen Mo's hand was very steady, and the needle was inserted perfectly.

The fourth acupuncture point is Juque (巨阙).

Located on the abdomen, six inches above the navel, it is the Mu point of the Heart Meridian.

The fifth needle is applied to the Shenmen acupoint.

On the inner side of the wrist, on the little finger side, lies the original acupoint of the Heart Meridian.

After inserting five needles, Chen Mo gently twirled his fingers, feeling the changes under the needles.

Those around dared not even breathe when they saw this.

The girl gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, tears welling in her eyes, and dared not blink.

Liu Xin stood to the side, her heart pounding faster than anyone else's.

One minute.

Two minutes.

three minutes.

The old man's face slowly changed; the ashen purplish-gray color faded little by little, replaced by a touch of color.

The lips gradually returned to their normal color, and then the old man's eyelids twitched.

The old man opened his eyes, looking around blankly: "What...what happened to me?"

The surrounding crowd erupted in uproar upon witnessing this scene.

"She's awake! She's awake!"

"She's really awake!"

"A miracle doctor! He saved a patient from a heart attack with just a few needles? That's incredible!"

The applause started sparsely, then grew louder and louder, and finally became a continuous chorus.

The girl rushed to the old man's side, hugged him, and cried.

"Grandpa! You scared me to death! Do you know you almost... almost..."

The old man patted her back and asked with a blank look:

"What's wrong with me?"

"You just fainted! Heart attack! Acute heart attack!"

The girl looked up, pointed at Chen Mo, and said, "This doctor saved you! He pricked you a few times with a needle, and you woke up!"

The old man looked at Chen Mo, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He looked down at the needles stuck in his chest, then looked up at Chen Mo.

"A few silver needles... pulled me back from the brink of death? That's too much..."

Chen Mo began to remove the needles.

He wiped the used needles clean with an alcohol swab and put them one by one into the cloth bag.

"Old man!"

As Chen Mo collected the package, he said, "You had an acute myocardial infarction this time. Although you were saved, the problem of blocked blood vessels is still there."

"If conditions permit, I suggest you go back to the hospital to have a stent installed; you can't delay any longer!"

The old man nodded, but his eyes remained fixed on Chen Mo, his expression indescribably complex.

"Young man, what's your name? You saved my life, I don't know how to thank you enough!"

"Old man, my name is Chen Mo, Chen from 'ear east' and Mo from 'black dog'!"

Chen Mo did not take the old man's words to heart.

He has saved countless patients over the years, but how many of them are truly grateful to him?

In most patients' minds, they pay for medical treatment, the doctor receives payment and treats the illness, and that's it.

Many patients may also feel that the doctor overcharged them.

"Chen Mo..."

The old man read it twice, then said, "Okay, I've got it!"

The girl wiped away her tears and said, "Thank you! Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, my grandfather..."

Chen Mo waved his hand and tucked the cloth bag back into his pocket: "Don't cry, it's good that the old man is alright!"

Liu Xin was completely stunned by what she saw.

Myocardial infarction!

Acupuncture!

They've been saved!

This kid...

This is truly amazing!
