I practiced medicine in ancient times

Day two.

"Doctor Zhou, these are Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan who studied medicine with you." Shopkeeper Li brought Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan to Doctor Zhou and introduced them to them.

Without waiting for Doctor Zhou's consent, he left the clinic.

Doctor Zhou nodded, glanced at the two of them, and said calmly, "I will see patients in the clinic in the morning, and I will go out for follow-up consultations from time to time in the afternoon.

Most of the patients who come to see me are wealthy people. The number of patients is not large, but it is not small either.

Normally, you two will watch me treat patients. If you encounter something you don’t understand, you can write it down first. When I have time, you can ask me and I will answer you then.

I hope that you can study medicine seriously, become a master as soon as possible, and bring good news to patients.

Finally, if you have to go out or go home, please let me know in advance so that I can be aware of it. "

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan bowed respectfully and said in unison, "Yes, Doctor Zhou."

"Can you perform acupuncture? How do you perform acupuncture techniques?" Doctor Zhou continued to ask.

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan looked at each other, both a little hesitant. Bai Yan spoke first and replied, "Doctor Zhou, we have learned some basic acupuncture techniques, and our acupuncture techniques are pretty good. Doctor Zhou, please give us more guidance."

Doctor Zhou nodded slightly and said, "Acupuncture is an extremely important part of medical skills, which requires constant practice and refinement. Since you have learned some basics, try to show me how you do it.

Give me a few needles at the Laogong, Shangshao, and Hegu points."

At this time, Doctor Zhou took out the needle bag of silver needles, waved it in front of Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan, and then handed the needle bag to Xu Qingyi.

What he meant was to let Xu Qingyi give acupuncture to Bai Yan's Laogong, Shangshao and Hegu points. He wanted to see how proficient Xu Qingyi was in the acupuncture technique.

Seeing this, Xu Qingyi took out a silver needle and played with it gently in her hand for a few times. Bai Yan also rolled up the sleeves on her wrists. She inserted the needle into Bai Yan's Laogong, Shangshao and Hegu acupoints.

It's fast, precise and accurate, and the acupuncture technique is very skillful.

Bai Yan only felt a slight pain in her arm, and then a warm current flowed through her meridians, making her so comfortable that she couldn't help but moan softly.

Doctor Zhou on the side saw that Xu Qingyi's technique had indeed reached the level of perfection. Although the three acupoints were small, the acupuncture required extremely precise techniques, otherwise the meridians would be injured if one was not careful, causing irreversible consequences.

The fact that she could insert the needles into the acupuncture points so accurately in such a short time was enough to show that she had an extremely good understanding of the acupuncture points on the human body and was very familiar with the technique. I'm afraid she has put a lot of effort into it. It is really not easy for her to have such skills at her age.

Then, Doctor Zhou mentioned a dozen acupuncture points and asked Xu Qingyi to insert acupuncture needles. He was even more shocked to see that Xu Qingyi was able to accurately find the acupuncture points and insert the needles without any mistakes every time.

Even for himself, it would take several years or even dozens of years of practice to achieve this.

The girl in front of us was sold into a clinic at the age of seven and was promoted to an apprentice just over a year ago. This means that it took her just over a year to learn all the acupuncture points and to become proficient in acupuncture. It is really unbelievable that she has such good acupuncture skills in such a short time.

Her technique is so skillful and her understanding of the human body's acupuncture points is so in-depth that it is obvious that Xu Qingyi has an extremely high talent in medicine.

After examining Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan started to perform acupuncture on Xu Qingyi.

Bai Yan's technique is much more clumsy than Xu Qingyi's, and there are some shortcomings, but it is still much better than that of other disciples.

Although Bai Yan was a surgeon in her previous life, she was very familiar with the positions of various organs in the human body. In addition, her fingers were extremely flexible. She had performed many surgeries in her previous life and was also a ruthless person. Under Xu Qingyi's instruction, Bai Yan recognized all the acupuncture points in the human body and was able to give people acupuncture like a fish in water. Now all she had to do was to improve her proficiency.

"That's right. If there are patients who need acupuncture, massage, moxibustion, etc. in the future, I will teach you two." Doctor Zhou was also satisfied with Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan's proficiency in acupuncture techniques.

The next step is to verify their ability to diagnose patients through observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation.

After Doctor Zhou tested Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan, more and more people came to see Doctor Zhou, and he did not have time to continue testing Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan.

Doctor Zhou began to get busy, taking the patient's pulse, diagnosing the condition, writing down the pulse, and prescribing medicine.

Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan stood aside, watching Doctor Zhou taking the patient's pulse and prescribing medicine.

If other people just watched without taking the patient's pulse, they might not learn anything. But Xu Qingyi was different. He observed, listened, asked and felt the patient, with observation first and feeling later.

After Xu Qingyi's eyes changed, he scanned the visitor's complexion and tongue coating, smelled the patient's odor, and combined with the symptoms asked by Doctor Zhou, Xu Qingyi was able to roughly determine the patient's condition.

After Dr. Zhou wrote the prescription, Xu Qingyi also carefully observed the composition and method of use of the prescription. She found that Dr. Zhou used the medicine accurately, the dosage was appropriate, and his thinking was very clear.

After verifying the prescription he had written for the patient with that written by Doctor Zhou, Xu Qingyi discovered that his prescription was slightly better. After verifying the prescription with Doctor Zhou, Xu Qingyi was still able to find the shortcomings of his own prescription.

Xu Qingyi began to think about how to improve his prescription to make it more perfect.

While learning from masters, he was also able to improve his medical skills, simplify prescriptions, and maximize the combined therapeutic effect of the prescriptions. Xu Qingyi felt that his life was pretty good.

Of course, Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan were not just standing behind Doctor Zhou to learn from him. After a while, Doctor Zhou asked Bai Yan to write pulse records and prescriptions for him.

After having someone do the hand replacement, Dr. Zhou's treatment speed became much faster.

If some patients needed acupuncture, Doctor Zhou would instruct Xu Qingyi to perform the acupuncture. At first, Doctor Zhou was a little worried about Xu Qingyi performing acupuncture on patients, and he even stared at several people.

Later, after seeing Xu Qingyi perform acupuncture on patients without any mistakes, and his acupuncture was done quickly and accurately, he felt relieved and handed over the acupuncture work to Xu Qingyi.

When Doctor Zhou encountered some typical and confusing diseases, he would ask for the patients' consent and not only explain a few things to Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan, but also let them take the pulse and even write him a prescription or two.

When Xu Qingyi saw Doctor Zhou's expression, she knew that Doctor Zhou really wanted to teach them something.

Time slowly came to the end of the hour, and a rather special patient came to see Doctor Zhou.
