Chapter 39: Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate
When the old man talked about the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, there was a rare look of panic on his face, and it was the first time I had seen such an expression on his face after I had lived with him for so long.
While the two of them were talking, I also wondered, what is the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth? Is it an earthquake, or a plague, as for scaring you both like this? Even Huang Lao Er has to run to the mountains to hide?
However, at that time, I was concerned about eating fish, and I didn't pay attention to this matter, no matter how big the catastrophe was, the earth could not be destroyed, should it be turned? I don't need to worry about it.
"Forget it, the time will come sooner or later, since the fate has been decided, it is useless for you and me to think too much." At this time, the old man sighed, took a sip of stuffy wine and said.
Huang Lao Er shook his head, gently stroked the two small mustaches on his chin, and said with emotion: "Yes, the times are like this, this catastrophe came into being, it is not something we can change, I just hope it will pass soon." ”
The old man nodded, picked up the gourd and said to Huang Laoer: "It's useless to think too much, Huang Laoer, the old man knows that you are leaving, but I specially brought this wine back for you from the city, come, I respect you." ”
"That's it, after drinking this time, we don't know when we will be able to get together, so you and I will just have a good drink." Huang Lao Er glanced at the old man, and raised his head to take a sip of wine.
When the old man saw Huang Lao Er drink the wine, he suddenly said with a smile: "You have also drunk my wine and eaten the meat, and now I have something to ask you, you have to promise me." ”
"I'm leaving anyway, what's the matter? Just say it, I'll promise you whatever I can. Huang Lao Er picked up the chopsticks and ate a bite of meat, wiped the greasy corners of his mouth, and said a little drunk.
The old man coughed lightly, his face turned pale, and he said seriously: "The old man heard that your skills, the thirteen needles of the ghost gate are very powerful, you see, you eat my meat, and drink my wine, but you owe me a favor, and you have a cause and effect, so let's teach this craft to Double Happiness, which is regarded as repaying my favor, understand this cause and effect, how about it?" ”
Huang Lao Er showed such an expression on his face, sighed and said, "I said that the sun came out in the west today, will you be kind enough to invite me to dinner?" You've never been profitable, and you're starting to make ill intentions when you see that I'm leaving! ”
"How? What do you mean by refusing to teach the Thirteen Needles of Double Happiness Ghost Gate? The old man stood up suddenly, rolled up his sleeves, blew his beard and glared and asked.
Huang Lao Er seemed to be extremely jealous of my master, his face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Jiang, let's talk about something well, don't do anything in front of the juniors, the impact is not good." ”
"Don't be useless, just ask you a word, do you pass it on?" The old man raised his dry fist and snorted softly.
Huang Lao Er glanced up at the old man, smiled bitterly, and said, "That's it, even if I was careless in making friends, I can't pass on a friend like you?" ”
"Okay, count you as acquaintances." The old man looked pale and said to me: "Double happiness, learn from your Grandpa Huang these days, if you master his set of skills and eat it thoroughly, even if you rely on treating people to solve disasters in the future, you will not have to worry about eating and drinking." ”
As soon as I heard that Huang Lao Er was going to teach me the thirteen needles of the ghost gate, I quickly stopped the chopsticks, wiped the corners of my mouth, and couldn't take care of eating.
The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate was created by the Zhengyi Sect, Zhang Daoling and Zhang Tianshi, which can be called the magic technique of Chinese medicine, and it is the secret of the family of medicine in ancient times.
This acupuncture method can cure two diseases, one is yang disease and the other is yin disease.
The so-called yang disease, as the name suggests, is a normal physical discomfort, such as cold, fever, headache and other diseases.
And the yin disease is the yin soul, the possession of the unjust soul, that is, the folk so-called troublemaker, collision with evil and the like.
This ghost gate thirteen has a special effect for the treatment of yin disease, like some old Chinese medicine doctors now, who have obtained the true inheritance of their ancestors, and know a little about the fur of the thirteen needles of the ghost gate, and the negative diseases that cannot be seen in big hospitals are often solved in their hands.
Relying on this technology alone, this group of Chinese medicine practitioners can be said to make a lot of money, this is just a superficial understanding, if all learn this set of acupuncture, study thoroughly, it is not only as simple as curing diseases and saving people, and even, learn the essence, you can also subdue demons and eliminate demons, which is also the power of this acupuncture.
In this way, in the next few days, in addition to meditating and recuperating my mind, most of the remaining time was to learn this set of acupuncture techniques with Huang Lao Er.
According to Huang Laoer, I learned that the thirteen ghost points on the body of the ghost gate are the ghost seal, the ghost palace, the ghost cave, the ghost base, the ghost road, the ghost market, the ghost hall, the ghost pillow, the ghost heart, the ghost leg and so on.
It took me two days to identify the thirteen ghost holes in various parts of the human body, and Huang Lao Er began to teach me how to apply the needle.
The methods of the next needle are, one needle ghost palace, that is, the middle of the person, into three points, two needles of ghost letter, that is, Shaoshang, into three points, three needles of ghost base, that is, hidden white, into two points, four needles of ghost heart, that is, Daling, into five points, and so on.
After teaching me the essentials of the thirteen acupuncture points of the ghost gate, Huang Lao Er warned me, saying that what I have to do now is to memorize the correct location of the thirteen ghost acupoints, and not to remember one of the wrong acupuncture points.
Finally, I also have to memorize the angle and depth of the needle, and the difference between angle and depth will be related to the effect of the treatment and the determination of the type of disease.
For example, if a person has convulsions, a blue complexion, and foaming at the mouth, I need to determine whether the person is suffering from yin or yang disease.
First of all, I use my thumb and second thumb to pinch the patient, the two sides of the base of the middle finger, and then insert a steel needle into three millimeters.
On the contrary, if there are no signs of needle beating, it is a normal epilepsy disease, and at this time, it can be sent to the hospital for treatment according to regular medical methods.
In this way, it was not until a week later that Huang Lao Er fully passed on the essence of this set of acupuncture to me, and then he packed his luggage, said goodbye to our master and apprentice, left the Big Banyan Tree Cave, and went to the mountains to practice.
When he was gone, I memorized what he had passed on to me, to make sure that nothing was missing, and in order to better verify what I had learned, I begged the old man to be my patient for once, so that I could practice my hands.
In his words, I am now learning to be dissatisfied with a bottle, half a cake is dangling, you want to prick me, there is no door, I don't want to be used as an experiment, I want to be pricked half-body, I want to pierce, you want to find someone else.
From then on, the old man, whether he was sleeping or doing something else, was always on guard against me, like a thief, for fear that I would give him a blow from behind with a steel needle.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
On this day, as usual, I was sitting under the big banyan tree meditating, and suddenly I heard someone shouting in the distance, and when I opened my eyes, it turned out to be Tiezhu running up the mountain with an anxious face.
"Tiezhu, what's wrong with you? What's so urgent? I saw him running to me in a panic and hurriedly asked.
