Chapter 62 Overcoming Opposition to Provide Emergency Treatment
I. Public ridicule sparks controversy
The room was filled with people surrounding Chen Shanhe, their faces showing disdain, contempt, and distrust.
The patriarch of the wealthy family had a livid face, his chest heaving slightly, and his eyes were full of displeasure and resistance.
He took a step forward, his tone firm, each word carrying a sense of oppression.
"Our elderly relative's life hangs by a thread; they can't withstand any reckless actions!"
"Even renowned doctors in the provincial capital are helpless; you, a mere country boy, absolutely cannot act rashly!"
The family members standing nearby echoed this sentiment, their faces full of impatience as they waved their hands and shook their heads repeatedly.
"Go back now, don't waste time here and risk people's lives!"
"It's absurd that someone so young shouldn't be learning his proper duties, but instead goes around swindling and cheating people!"
Two elderly traditional Chinese medicine doctors stood to one side with their arms crossed, their brows slightly furrowed and a faint sneer on their lips.
One of the older traditional Chinese medicine doctors gave a soft snort and glanced at Chen Shanhe.
"Young man, practicing medicine is not child's play. Without decades of experience, you simply cannot handle serious and critical illnesses."
"We've practiced medicine for half our lives, and we've already determined that there's nothing we can do to save him. Why do you insist on being so stubborn?"
Su Wanjing stood beside Chen Shanhe, gently gripping his sleeve, her expression calm and composed.
Chen Shanhe stood tall and straight, his face calm and composed, neither angry nor annoyed, his eyes steady and firm.
Despite everyone's ridicule and obstruction, he remained calm and composed, speaking slowly and clearly with a strong voice.
"When practicing medicine and saving lives, I never consider age, background, status, or reputation."
"Empty talk and grand pronouncements are useless. To cure an illness, one must look at the pulse and the root cause of the disease, and only the final result matters."
"The old man is on the verge of death, his airway is blocked with phlegm, and he is in imminent danger. If this is delayed any longer, it will be too late to save him."
"By preventing me from taking action, you are truly wasting lives!"
His words were powerful and resounding, instantly silencing the noisy bedroom, leaving everyone stunned.
Poems as proof:
Prejudice among the people leads to disputes.
They made sarcastic remarks about the young man.
Mountains and rivers stand calmly as they speak the righteous path.
He relies on his medical skills, not his reputation.
II. Overcoming all opposition to gain close proximity
Upon hearing this, the patriarch's face remained gloomy, and he was still filled with hesitation and doubt.
On one side are the conclusions of two veteran traditional Chinese medicine doctors, and on the other side is a rural boy of unknown origin.
The children and their families looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
Murong Fangxiang stepped forward quickly, her expression earnest, and earnestly began to persuade the head of the family.
"Uncle, there's no other way now."
"We've tried all sorts of famous doctors, but none of them worked. Why not let Shanhe give it a try, even if it's a hopeless case?"
"It's a blessing that the old man was saved. Even if he couldn't be saved, we would have no regrets."
The crowd remained silent for a moment, watching the old man struggling in pain on the bed, his breath gradually weakening.
The patriarch closed his eyes tightly, let out a long sigh, and finally relaxed, his face extremely solemn.
"Fine, fine, since things have come to this, I'll let you give it a try."
"But let me make this clear first: you absolutely must not administer acupuncture or medication haphazardly, as this could worsen the condition!"
Chen Shanhe nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and walked to the bedside with neither arrogance nor servility.
His expression was solemn, ignoring all the surrounding noise, and his gaze was focused intently on the old man.
The two elderly traditional Chinese medicine doctors quickly stepped forward, still looking incredulous, and stared intently at his every move.
Both of them secretly resolved to see what skills this country boy could possess.
The bedroom fell silent instantly; everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the bed.
A rescue operation that no one believed in had officially begun.
Poems as proof:
After much arguing, he finally relented.
He defied criticism and approached the bedside.
The young man was undaunted by a thousand obstacles.
Only to relieve suffering and sorrow with a benevolent heart.
III. Clearly Analyzing the Root Cause of the Disease: Zhen Erlao
Chen Shanhe slowly extended his fingers and placed them firmly on the old man's wrist pulse, concentrating his mind to carefully examine the pulse.
A moment later, he opened the old man's eyelids to check the color of his tongue and observe the rise and fall of his breathing.
Every move he made was skillful and steady, with clear rules and no trace of panic or unfamiliarity.
He loosened his wrist, straightened up, and turned to look at the two elderly traditional Chinese medicine doctors beside him, their faces full of suspicion.
In front of everyone in the room, he spoke clearly and eloquently, slowly revealing the root cause of his illness.
"The old man originally worked hard all year round and lived in a cold and damp place for a long time. In his early years, wind and cold invaded his lungs and internal organs."
"Over time, cold and dampness accumulate and phlegm forms, gradually weakening the lung yang and slowly leading to chronic cough and asthma."
"After years of repeated treatments, focusing only on stopping the cough and relieving asthma, the root cause of the problem remains unresolved, and the cold and dampness have never been expelled."
"Over time, phlegm and dampness accumulate in the lung meridians, leading to deficiency of both the spleen and kidneys, and disorder of the ascending and descending of Qi, which causes recurrence every year."
"Today, I suddenly caught a chill and my emotions were depressed, which caused phlegm to rise up and block my airway, leading to a sudden suffocation crisis."
Upon hearing these words, the two elderly traditional Chinese medicine doctors were simultaneously jolted, and suddenly looked up, their faces filled with astonishment.
The two quickly checked each other's pulses again, and the more they examined, the more shocked they became, and the contempt on their faces slowly faded.
This diagnosis is clear, logical, and progressive, and it is exactly the same as the pulse diagnosis and symptoms.
They only saw the surface, but failed to see the deeper root of the problem!
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock, no longer daring to underestimate each other.
The entire family heard it clearly and instantly realized that the young man was by no means an ignorant and incompetent person who only talked nonsense.
Poems as proof:
Carefully identify the root cause and reason of the disease.
The deep-seated illness was dissected layer by layer.
The renowned doctors were all shocked upon hearing this.
Only then did I realize that the young man harbored a true scheme.
IV. Using acupuncture and medicine to calm fright
Chen Shanhe said no more, and immediately took out the silver needle pouch he carried with him, and laid it out neatly.
With fingertips twirling silver needles, the technique flows smoothly and quickly, precisely and rapidly piercing five major acupoints: Tian Tu, Fei Shu, Tan Zhong, Lie Que, and Feng Long.
The depth of the needle insertion is measured, the needle movement is smooth and even, the technique is skillful and experienced, and the whole process is completed in one go.
After the silver needles were inserted into the body for a short while, the rattling sound in the old man's throat gradually weakened and was no longer muffled and blocked.
The rise and fall of his chest gradually subsided, the bluish-purple color in his face faded little by little, and his lips slowly regained their color.
Immediately afterward, Chen Shanhe spoke, reciting the ingredients for the life-saving emergency decoction on the spot, every word precise and accurate:
Prepared ephedra 6g, apricot kernel 10g, raw licorice root 6g, prepared pinellia 12g, dried tangerine peel 9g.
Poria cocos 15g, Perilla frutescens seed 10g, white mustard seed 6g, radish seed 12g, cinnamon twig 5g.
Immediately, someone was instructed to prepare the medicine according to the prescription, and it was quickly decocted to warm and dissolve the phlegm, clear the orifices, and regulate the flow of qi.
In just a short while, the old man, who had been on the verge of death, began to breathe steadily.
His eyes slowly opened, his mind cleared, and the painful struggle disappeared completely.
Two experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctors, who had practiced medicine for decades, witnessed the entire rescue process and were completely stunned.
His techniques are exquisite, his diagnosis is unparalleled, and his prescriptions are perfectly suited to the symptoms, far surpassing my own!
The two men were filled with shame, shaking their heads and sighing repeatedly, their hearts filled with admiration and self-reproach.
All the family members present were stunned and shocked. All their previous doubts and disdain vanished.
Poems as proof:
Skillful acupuncture unblocks the lung meridians.
A single effective remedy can calm a frightened soul.
Serious and acute illnesses can be cured on the spot.
His reversal of life and death shocked everyone.
