Chapter 167 The Secret of Acupuncture
Li Qing smiled slightly, secretly proud in his heart: "Yes, Doctor Zhang is teaching me this skill." He recalled what Doctor Zhang had just taught him, and his heart was full of yearning. "Acupuncture is not just about inserting needles, but also about regulating and guiding qi and blood."
"So how are you doing?" Chen Fang's eyes were gleaming with anticipation, and she seemed to be full of curiosity about Li Qing's learning process.
Li Qing shook his head slightly, a hint of shyness on his face: "I have just started learning, and many things still need time to comprehend." He paused, a firm look in his eyes, "But I will work hard and will never let Doctor Zhang down!"
"I believe you!" Chen Fang smiled slightly, her eyes full of encouragement. She whispered, "Acupuncture can cure diseases and relieve pain. It's amazing!"
Li Qing nodded and thought to himself, "Yes, acupuncture is indeed a magical art." He remembered what Doctor Zhang had said, and continued, "Doctor Zhang said that the key to acupuncture is the understanding of the meridians. Only when you truly understand the meridians can you use acupuncture flexibly."
Chen Fang asked curiously: "What are meridians? Can you tell me about them?"
Li Qing thought for a moment and answered seriously: "The meridians are the channels for the flow of qi and blood in the human body, connecting the internal organs. Through acupuncture, the meridians can be unblocked and qi and blood can be harmonized, thus achieving the therapeutic effect."
"It sounds really complicated." Chen Fang frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in her eyes, "How did you learn all this knowledge?"
Li Qing smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling. "Doctor Zhang taught me to understand through observation and practice. He asked me to start with simple acupuncture and slowly accumulate experience."
"Have you given the acupuncture yet?" Chen Fang's eyes were full of surprise and anticipation.
"Yes, I just tried it once." Li Qing's voice was full of pride. "Although I only needled the cloth sheet, I felt a wonderful experience."
"That must be fun!" Chen Fang's face lit up with a smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Can you show me how to do it?"
Li Qing hesitated a little, thinking to himself: "I've just started, is it appropriate to show her?" But when he saw Chen Fang's expectant eyes, he nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll try."
He picked up a silver needle from the table, walked to the window, and gently inserted the needle into a piece of clean cloth, his movements were very careful. Chen Fang was watching intently, her eyes full of surprise and curiosity.
"You see, you have to be gentle when giving acupuncture, and don't use too much force." Li Qing explained while giving acupuncture, "This is the only way to avoid causing harm to the patient."
"It's amazing!" Chen Fang exclaimed, with a gleam of admiration in her eyes, "I have never seen such delicate movements."
Li Qing smiled slightly, secretly proud in his heart: "This is just the beginning. When I learn better, I will be able to give acupuncture to more people." He gently pulled out the silver needle, turned around, and saw Chen Fang's face full of surprise, and his heart couldn't help but feel warm.
"Li Qing, you are amazing!" Chen Fang exclaimed, her eyes full of admiration, "I believe you can become an excellent acupuncturist!"
"Thank you for your encouragement." Li Qing smiled slightly, his heart full of motivation, "I will study hard and live up to your expectations."
"I look forward to your growth." Chen Fang's voice was gentle but firm. "If you need me, I will always support you!"
Li Qing felt her sincerity and was moved: "Having a friend like you, I will work harder." He looked out the window. The sunlight was shining on the earth, as if foreshadowing hope for the future.
"I think acupuncture is not only a skill, but also a responsibility," Li Qing said seriously. "As an acupuncturist, I hope to use this skill to help more people and relieve their pain."
Li Qing sat aside, his eyes gleaming with desire: "Doctor Zhang, can you teach me more about acupuncture? I want to understand its secrets."
"Of course." Doctor Zhang put down the book and looked at Li Qing gently. "Acupuncture is not just about inserting needles. It is also about a deep understanding of the meridians of the human body. You need to learn to observe and sense the flow of qi and blood."
Chen Fang listened quietly, full of admiration: "Doctor Zhang, you are really knowledgeable and talented. Can you tell us about the basic principles of acupuncture?"
Doctor Zhang nodded and smiled, saying, "The basic principle of acupuncture lies in 'unblocking' and 'regulating'. By needling specific acupoints, we can dredge the meridians and regulate the qi and blood, thus achieving the therapeutic effect."
"What are acupoints?" Li Qing asked curiously, with a gleam of curiosity in his eyes.
"Acupoints are specific points on the meridians and have unique therapeutic effects." Doctor Zhang patiently explained, "Each acupoint has its corresponding internal organs. When acupuncture is performed, the appropriate acupoint should be selected according to the symptoms."
"I understand." Li Qing took note of it carefully and thought to himself: "Only by choosing the right acupoints can we achieve the best treatment effect."
"Li Qing, the most important thing to learn acupuncture is to practice more." Doctor Zhang continued, "You can start with simple acupoints and gradually accumulate experience."
Chen Fang interrupted, "Doctor Zhang, can you show us a demonstration? I want to see acupuncture in action."
Doctor Zhang smiled slightly, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll show you." He picked up a silver needle from the table, walked to the wooden rack nearby, and prepared to give the acupuncture.
"Please pay attention," said Doctor Zhang, his movements skillful and steady. He gently inserted the needle into an acupoint, his expression focused, as if he was having some kind of invisible communication with the patient's qi and blood.
Li Qing and Chen Fang stared at him intently, their hearts filled with wonder. Li Qing asked softly, "Doctor Zhang, do you have any special techniques when giving acupuncture?"
"When applying the needle, you need to control the force and angle," Dr. Zhang explained. "Excessive force will hurt the skin, while insufficient force will not achieve the therapeutic effect."
"I understand." Li Qing nodded and made up his mind: "I must study hard and master these skills."
After the demonstration, Dr. Zhang looked at the two people with a smile: "Do you have any questions?"
"I want to know, what diseases can acupuncture cure?" Chen Fang asked impatiently.
"Acupuncture can treat many diseases, such as headaches, back pain, insomnia, etc." Doctor Zhang replied, "But the treatment method and acupoint selection are different for each disease, and they need to be determined according to the specific situation."
"It sounds amazing." Li Qing said with emotion, his eyes shining with longing for the future. "I hope to help more people by learning acupuncture."
"This is what I hope you can understand." Doctor Zhang's eyes showed satisfaction. "Acupuncture is not only a skill, but also a responsibility. As doctors, helping others is our unshirkable mission."
"I will study hard and live up to your expectations." Li Qing said firmly, his heart full of motivation.
"I will support you too." Chen Fang smiled, with a firm belief in her eyes. "No matter what difficulties we encounter, we must overcome them together."
Doctor Zhang nodded with satisfaction: "With your determination, I believe you will be able to achieve success in your studies."
"Thank you, Doctor Zhang." Li Qing and Chen Fang said in unison, their hearts filled with gratitude.
"Okay, that's all for today's class." Doctor Zhang stood up and smiled. "Next time I will take you to see some actual cases so that you can have a deeper understanding of the application of acupuncture."
