Chapter 544 Needle or Sword
Chapter 544 Needle or Sword
"Miss Fubao is here to treat my eldest brother. She said that after acupuncture, he will be able to walk in March." Chen Hongxia answered quickly, with tears in her eyes as she spoke.
Finally, the hardship has paid off.
As long as her elder brother can get better, it doesn't matter if she lives ten years less.
"Are you serious?!" When Chen Tianfeng heard the news, he looked at Jiang Fubao in disbelief.
Seems to be waiting for her answer.
"Yes, really. If the effect is good, it is possible to shorten the time to two months. Do you feel anything below the waist now?" Jiang Fubao nodded and then asked.
"No, I don't feel anything." Chen Tianfeng's expression seemed a little lonely, and the corners of his mouth, which did not have time to rise, turned down again.
"It's okay. Just lie down first. I'll give you acupuncture. Shitou is not here. Sister Hongxia, you can't lift him by yourself. Go outside and call your sister-in-law in. The two of you can help him turn over together."
Although Erya is very strong, Chen Tianfeng is married after all. Jiang Fubao didn't let Erya come forward to help, fearing that his wife would think too much.
"No need, I'm here. Fubao, drink some hot water to moisten your throat first." Wang Ruer's voice came from outside the house, and she followed into the house.
I saw that she was holding two cups of water, which were still steaming.
You can tell at a glance that it’s freshly cooked.
One cup was placed on the table next to Jiang Fubao, and one cup was handed to Pan Erya.
Then the aunt and sister-in-law helped Chen Tianfeng turn over, from lying down to lying prone.
Jiang Fubao also opened the wooden box and took out the needle from it.
"Fu, Fubao, what is this? Why did you take out a sword? Are you going to kill the kid's father? Or did you bring the wrong thing?" Wang Ruru was so scared when she saw the needle as thick as a finger and as long as a leg that she swallowed several times.
"No, this is not a sword, this is a silver needle." Jiang Fubao explained.
"Ah? Silver, silver needle? You said this is a silver needle? Oh my, which shop did you buy it from? You've been cheated! How can a silver needle be ground so thick? If you insert this needle, it will definitely kill someone." It would have been fine if he didn't explain. After he explained, Wang Ruer became even more scared.
"You misunderstood. This is called a Mang needle, which is different from an ordinary silver needle. I will use this needle to penetrate Brother Tian Feng's Tianzhu acupoint and then pass it out from the Zhongliao acupoint. In the process, I need to open up countless meridians and acupuncture points. If it is too thin or too short, it will be difficult to operate.
Oh, it's quite complicated, I can't explain it in a few words, anyway, if Brother Tian Feng wants to recover to the way he was before, he must get this needle, ordinary silver needles will not have any effect on him, it's nothing more than being able to walk a few steps with the help of external force, this is already the best result. "
Jiang Fubao said truthfully.
When Chen Tianfeng heard them talking, he turned his head with difficulty.
When he saw the needle, his pupils suddenly dilated and then contracted.
The heartbeat also speeds up.
Anyone who sees this thing will be scared.
The bleeding knife used to slaughter pigs is no more than this.
"Miss Fubao, if we don't use this needle and only use ordinary silver needles, will my brother really never be the same as before?"
Chen Hongxia was afraid that her brother would be stabbed to death by the needle, and was also afraid that he would really be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life, so she could only ask Jiang Fubao again.
Her eyes were dark and difficult to understand, as if she was struggling with how to make a choice.
"Yes, with my medical skills, if I only use ordinary silver needles, even with your daily massage, the best result is that he can stand up and walk a few steps, and he needs external help. Forget about working. You can choose for yourself."
Jiang Fubao knew that they were afraid, after all, the needle was too long and too thick.
If you fail, you might even lose your life.
It's reasonable to worry.
"I'm willing to be injected, even if it means death." Without waiting for the aunt and sister-in-law to think it over, Chen Tianfeng, the person who was going to get the injection, made the decision immediately.
"The child's father..." Wang Ruer looked at him, her face full of worry.
"Don't try to persuade me. Rather than lying like this for the rest of my life, I'd rather give it a try. The worst that can happen is death. I'll accept it!" Chen Tianfeng gritted his teeth and interrupted Wang Ruer.
"Okay, take off his clothes. I'm going to start."
Jiang Fubao took out another can of iodine from the medical box. She found it in the cabinet in the space. There was only half a bottle left. Fortunately, the space could be refreshed every day. She took it out and poured it into the can every day. It would be enough if accumulated.
Before each acupuncture treatment, she would take out iodine and apply it on the patient's body.
For people here, bathing is not as convenient as it is now. Even if there are servants to serve them at home, they will only take a bath at least once every six or seven days in winter, not to mention farmers. There are many people who only take a bath once a month.
There are even people who don't take a bath for the entire winter.
It's good for them to have an extra layer of protection.
Jiang Fubao tore off a piece of cotton, dipped it in iodine, and smeared it on the back of Chen Tianfeng's neck and coccyx.
The cool iodine made Chen Tianfeng shrink his neck. Fortunately he was paralyzed, otherwise he would have to shrink his neck again when applying it to his tailbone.
After applying the iodine, Jiang Fubao took out a small hammer from the medicine box. The aunt and sister-in-law opened their mouths wider and wider.
Is this really an acupuncture needle?
Not doing carpentry work?
"I'm going to give you an injection. Relax and don't be afraid." Jiang Fubao's consolation was useless. Chen Tianfeng was so scared that his face turned pale.
He clenched his teeth and said nothing.
"Boom boom boom——"
"Ouch——" As the sound of the hammer chiseling the needle handle rang out, Chen Tianfeng also cried out in pain.
It would be a lie to say that it didn't hurt when a needle that thick was first inserted.
Beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.
But this was the most painful one.
He had no feeling in his waist, and Chen Tianfeng didn't even make a sound when Jiang Fubao was clearing his meridians.
"Dad, does your waist hurt?" Wang Ruer covered her face in fear. She only dared to look through the gaps between her fingers.
"It doesn't hurt." Chen Tianfeng was telling the truth.
Not only was there no pain, there was almost no feeling at all.
There's just some soreness and swelling in the back of my neck, but it's bearable. It's not as painful as a stiff neck.
However, in Wang Ruer's eyes, she only saw Jiang Fubao holding the needle as long as a sword and separating the skin and flesh of her husband.
Then it comes out from the coccyx.
Like roasted hare.
How is this different from peeling?
It's just that there's no blood.
Chen Hongxia's expression wasn't much better.
The aunt and sister-in-law covered their faces and squinted their eyes.
Both were far away.
Pan Erya was the bravest one. She stood beside Jiang Fubao, waiting for her instructions.
"Fubao, is it time to remove the needle?" Chen Tianfeng suddenly said after an unknown amount of time.
"Dad, can you feel it?" Wang Ruer's eyes widened instantly, and her lips trembled slightly because of excitement.
"Well, I felt something leaving my back." Chen Tianfeng was also shocked.
When the acupuncture was performed, I could not feel the needle as it left my neck and went down to my back.
How come I could feel it suddenly?
At that time, Old Chen and Mrs. Cui also returned from the fields.
