Chapter 1003: Taking the Pulse From Decades Ago
Mrs. Mai is also a smart person. After hearing what Bian Mu said, she guessed casually: "Why? Is her disease 'born'?!"
"That's not the case... But it may have something special to do with her biological mother's over-kindness, so... I have to ask the old lady about her occupation." Bian Mu responded with a smile.
"The old lady is a cultural scholar. She is usually very close to me. When there is any large-scale cultural exhibition, as long as the time is convenient, I will usually pick her up and go together!" Mrs. Mai explained with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Bian Mu's mind flashed, and he asked casually: "Is the old lady the kind of talented woman who knows a little bit about music, chess, calligraphy and painting?"
"More than that! The old lady is proficient in everything, and has a very high IQ and emotional intelligence."
"Great! Is the old lady in good health recently?" Bian Mu asked casually.
"Very good! Last Wednesday, I accompanied the old lady to a jewelry exhibition. Later, I was a little tired and wanted to go back early. The old lady thought I was not energetic enough and insisted on teaching me to practice the 'Thirteen Forms of Yi Jin Jing'! It was so interesting!" Mrs. Mai responded with a smile.
The two were chatting there, and Manager Shang's cousin hurried back.
"I bought a little of everything, Doctor Bian! Do you think it's easy to use?" As she spoke, the middle-aged female lawyer handed the handbag in her hand to Bian Mu.
Camel color, small roll medium thick size, Bian Mu selected a ball of pure cashmere yarn, found the thread end and tied a knot with his hand. Later, with the help of Mrs. Mai, Bian Mu disassembled the roll of yarn into a single strand and coiled it around his wrist.
"Manager Shang! According to our Chinese medicine theory, the ear is the place where the main meridians gather. I have to take your ear pulse. I haven't used it for many years, so I may be a little unfamiliar with it. It may take a little longer to use it. Please bear with me!" Bian Mu walked to Manager Shang and explained with a smile.
Manager Shang was very weak. When Bian Mu asked Mrs. Mai about the relevant information, she was already a little sleepy while sitting on the sofa.
"Look at what you said! You are doing this for my own good! Everything is up to you!" Manager Shang tried his best to straighten his back, changed his sitting posture and responded kindly.
"Please stretch out your left hand!" As he spoke, Bian Mu asked Manager Shang to rest his left arm on the armrest of the sofa, and raised his left hand flatly. Bian Mu skillfully wrapped one end of the cashmere yarn between her index and middle fingers for many circles. The force was loose, and Bian Mu left a lot of room for contraction.
"Please use your index and middle fingers to pinch your left ear. The force should be moderate and natural." After saying that, Bian Mu watched Manager Shang pinch his left ear between his fingers with his left hand.
Bian Mu stretched the cashmere yarn, felt the tightness, and then stepped back about five or six steps.
Including the female nanny who came to watch the fun, the three ladies looked at Bian Mu with all kinds of strange eyes as he stretched the wool straight, adjusted the strength, and suddenly stretched out his right hand to pluck it a few times.
Perhaps he felt that the effect was not very obvious, so Bian Mu adjusted the wool to the other side of the 180-degree angle and stretched out his hand to pluck it again many times.
The wool vibrated, and Bian Mu concentrated on watching and listening attentively for a long time.
"Okay! Just like this, let's change the auricle of the right ear!" After that, according to the procedure of physiognomy, Bian Mu took another "ear diagnosis".
...
Then, Bian Mu may feel that the amount of information is still a little lacking, so he took out the box of "Rolling Dragon Gold Needles" from the small backpack he carried with him, and selected two of the smallest and thinnest gold needles from it. After disinfection, Bian Mu shallowly pierced the same acupuncture point on Manager Shang's ears.
Bian Mu placed the small coffee table in front of Manager Shang, and he sat on a small stool, and at the same time took her pulse again with both hands.
…
“It’s done!” After saying that, Bian Mu stood up and took out the two gold needles. After disinfecting them, he put them into the needle box.
“Just now, I tried to take a ‘hook pulse’ for you, which is what people usually call ‘historical hook’. As the name suggests, I have to reversely infer the residual pulse of your childhood, youth, youth... through a relatively unique diagnostic method. Do you understand my explanation?” As he spoke, Bian Mu found a small sofa opposite Manager Shang and sat down.
Diagnosing difficult and complicated diseases has always been mentally exhausting. Before he did anything, Bian Mu felt that his shoulders were heavy as iron.
As soon as these words came out, the four ladies present were stunned.
“What?! My sister’s pulse from childhood can still be preserved until now?! This is too unbelievable, right?! Doctor Bian! Are you sure you are not kidding?” Feeling that this matter was too bizarre, the middle-aged female lawyer couldn’t help but retort a few words, but in order to show that Bian Mu was a popular doctor, her words were relatively polite.
"Everyone is the same, but when we usually see a patient, we only ask about the current situation and don't trace back to the past ten years, so there is no need to go through so much trouble. For this, you may wish to refer to human scientific research, especially Western physicists, astronomers, and even mathematicians. They use super telescopes and super giant signal receivers, which are the kind of "big pot lids". They assign special people to monitor sound waves, images... Because of the existence of light-year units, are the signals they have captured with great difficulty the remnants of various civilization information from billions of years ago?" Bian Mu explained patiently.
Except for the female nanny who was standing and listening, the other three ladies present were all highly intelligent people. Once Bian Mu said this metaphor, everyone understood 40% to 50%.
"Oh... I see! Good fellow, I never thought that you, so young, could have such medical skills, it's amazing..." As soon as she said this, she realized that she had made some mistakes and stopped talking.
"So that's it... Good fellow! It's amazing. Theoretically speaking... You can really dig out the pulse traces of everyone's childhood or even before infancy... This is simply a plot in a science fiction script, I'm convinced!" Mrs. Mai and Bian Mu have long been close friends regardless of age, so they naturally say what they think.
Manager Shang is more stable after all, and he understands it in his heart, but he doesn't say much.
"Next, I may have to ask some more private topics. If I touch on your past privacy, please bear with me, Manager Shang. In addition, do you two want to avoid it?" Bian Mu explained with a smile.
"No need! One is my best friend, and the other is my sister, just like my own sister. Xiaoyu, please go out and buy some good fruits for Dr. Bian. Don't rush back, just go shopping! If you find something you like, I'll pay for it!" After that, Manager Shang sent their female nanny out for a stroll.
The female nanny was naturally very tactful. She thanked Manager Shang, picked up a large shopping cart, quickly changed her clothes and went out.
"Were you prone to crying when you were a child, and more or less a night cryer?" Bian Mu asked bluntly.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Mai and the middle-aged female lawyer couldn't help but laugh...
