Extraordinary Soldier King in the City
Chapter 1630: Life and Death Three Elements Needle
He walked over to the bedside.
Looking at Lu Ying on the bed, her little face deathly pale, her whole body giving off an icy chill.
Chen Feng frowned, then sat down by the bed, gently pulled Lu Ying’s right hand out from under the quilt, placed his own right hand on her right wrist, and began to take her pulse.
Seeing this, Zhao Fang carefully stood by Chen Feng’s side, not daring to make a sound and disturb him.
But her face was full of tension and worry, and her pair of time-worn hands were clenched tightly together.
Because all the money at home had already been spent on treating Lu Ying’s illness.
And before this, she had spent so much money, found so many famous experts, yet none of them could find the cause of Lu Ying’s illness.
Zhao Fang had already been desperate enough.
Now that Lu Ying’s condition had worsened, she was even more utterly desperate.
And Chen Feng was truly her last hope at this moment, you could say he was the last life-saving straw.
So she really hoped Chen Feng could find something, bring her some good news.
If so, at the very least she would be able to hold on.
Otherwise, she really didn’t know how much longer she could endure.
Just as Zhao Fang was incomparably nervous—
At this time, Mu Dongcheng also walked over.
Seeing Zhao Fang’s worried and tense face, Mu Dongcheng smiled slightly and comforted her:
"Ms. Zhao, don’t worry. My friend here, his Medical Skill is extremely superb, you could call him a living Hua Tuo. Back then my wife also suffered from a strange illness. I searched all over the country for famous doctors, yet none of them could cure her. Just when I was about to fall into complete despair, this friend of mine made his move. He cured my wife in an incredibly short time. His Medical Skill is simply shocking. So relax. With my friend taking action, your daughter will definitely be fine!"
"Really? Is he really that amazing?"
Zhao Fang froze, her face full of surprise.
"Of course. So all we need to do is wait here in peace for good news!"
Mu Dongcheng said with a smile.
"Mm!"
Zhao Fang nodded.
Then the two of them stood off to the side, quietly waiting.
Chen Feng closed his eyes, carefully feeling Lu Ying’s pulse.
However, after a round of pulse-taking—
Judging from the pulse, Lu Ying’s physical condition was completely normal, no sign of any illness, just like an ordinary person’s body.
This made Chen Feng frown.
Obviously, trying to find the cause of Lu Ying’s illness just by taking her pulse was not very likely.
But this was also normal; if it were that easy to find—
The other doctors would have discovered it long ago.
And it wouldn’t have dragged on until now.
Chen Feng opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
Seeing this, Zhao Fang hurriedly came up, asking expectantly, "How is it, Mr. Chen, did you see anything?"
"The pulse is completely normal. I didn’t find the cause of the illness from it."
Chen Feng shook his head and said calmly.
Hearing this—
Zhao Fang’s expression changed.
Because she was all too familiar with this sentence.
Before this, she had taken Lu Ying to see so many doctors. After all the examinations, they all said the same thing.
Some doctors even directly insisted that there was nothing wrong with Lu Ying’s body, that she was perfectly healthy, and told Zhao Fang to take her home and rest easy.
But looking at Lu Ying, how did she look like someone who was fine?
Now hearing Chen Feng say this again—
You could imagine how miserable Zhao Fang felt inside.
She felt like her last sliver of hope was about to snap.
However—
Just as Zhao Fang was about to fall into despair—
She heard Chen Feng continue, "You don’t have to worry either. If we can’t find the cause from the pulse, I still have other methods. We’ll definitely find it in the end!"
Hearing this from Chen Feng—
Zhao Fang’s eyes lit up instantly, as if she had seen hope again. She hurriedly looked at Chen Feng and asked, "You really have other methods?"
"Of course."
Chen Feng’s lips curled slightly as he nodded.
"Then I’ll have to trouble you. Please start as soon as possible!"
Zhao Fang said excitedly.
"Mm."
Chen Feng nodded, then with a thought, took out a set of Silver Needle from his Space Ring.
Then, Chen Feng drew out three of them and used his True Qi to disinfect the Silver Needle.
After finishing all this, Chen Feng picked one Silver Needle and directly inserted it into the spot between Lu Ying’s eyebrows.
Then he took out the second needle and inserted it into Lu Ying’s right wrist.
The last one was inserted into the temple on the right side of Lu Ying’s head.
This Acupuncture Technique was called the Life and Death Three Elements Needle.
With these three needles, one could determine the patient’s life or death, the cause of illness, and everything happening inside the body.
It was a relatively high-level diagnostic Acupuncture Technique in ancient Chinese Medical Skill.
Don’t be fooled by the fact there are only three simple needles.
They require the user to control the strength and depth of the needling to an extremely proficient degree.
After all, the three points they pierce are not ordinary spots; they connect to major acupoints of the human body.
If the force is too heavy, or the depth too deep—
It’s very likely you could directly kill the patient with the needles!
So although it looks like just three simple needles on the surface—
There is actually far, far too much contained within.
Ordinary Chinese doctors, even if they know this Acupuncture Technique, absolutely wouldn’t dare to use it lightly.
Because with this Acupuncture Technique, even the slightest mistake would mean the patient dies on the spot.
Only someone like Chen Feng, who had absolute confidence in his own Medical Skill, could use it so calmly and so easily.
As the three needles entered the body—
Chen Feng once again placed his index and middle fingers on Lu Ying’s right wrist, quietly sensing the changes within her body.
With the assistance of the Life and Death Three Elements Needle—
Chen Feng could feel the condition inside Lu Ying even more clearly.
Every organ, every blood vessel.
Even the slightest lesion, he would be able to roughly sense it.
However—
Three minutes later—
Chen Feng’s brows were still tightly knitted together.
Because he had still gained nothing.
Even with the strong assistance of the Life and Death Three Elements Needle—
Chen Feng still couldn’t sense what the cause of Lu Ying’s illness was inside her body.
This made Chen Feng’s expression change somewhat.
Because for a cause of illness that even the Life and Death Three Elements Needle couldn’t detect, there were only two possibilities.
Either the illness was too minor, so minor it could be ignored.
Or it was too bizarre, too hidden, to the point that even the Life and Death Three Elements Needle couldn’t find it.
And looking at Lu Ying’s current state—
It was obvious that her illness could not be minor.
If it were some tiny illness, how could it make Lu Ying fall into frequent comas and make her whole body as cold as ice?
That was obviously impossible.
So it could only be the second possibility!
This might be an unprecedented strange disease, very likely something that had never appeared before.
So trying to find it using traditional Medical Skill would be somewhat difficult.
Thinking of this—
Chen Feng shook his head.
Seeing this from the side, Zhao Fang’s face changed instantly. She hurriedly moved closer and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Chen, still nothing?"
