336: I can heal him

I can heal him

After hearing the Old master, Old Lady was shocked. Her husband was almost rear-ended. If not for Qin Yan, he would have been injured severely. And everyone knows that it is not easy to heal in old age. Nobody knew when the Old Master would recover if he got injured.0

Moreover, Qin Yan had also saved Old Master Xi's life by administering timely acupuncture to him. If not for her, maybe they would be in hospital instead of enjoying the delicacies here. 

Old Lady Xi's eyes welled up with tears as she realized how much Qin Yan has helped them. Overwhelmed by emotion, the old lady slowly made her way over to Qin Yan and took her hand in her own. She looked deeply into Qin Yan's eyes and said, "Thank you. Thank you for everything you've done for us, Yan Yan. I will forever be grateful to you."

Qin Yan shook her head, "Grandma, you don't need to thank me. If I was in grandpa's place, wouldn't he have saved me? We are family. If we don't protect each other, who will?"

Both the old lady and old master were impressed by Qin Yan's humbleness. They were also very happy that Qin Yan had accepted them as a family. They looked at each other and knew what the other one was thinking. Both of them had a same thought, 'Their grandson had chosen a treasure.'

After they were done having the snacks, Qin Yan asked Old Master Xi, "Grandpa, why don't I apply acupuncture on you now? If you feel better, I'll do it every day. After a few days, your leg won't hurt anymore."

"Okay, let's do it," The old master agreed without hesitation.

Old Lady Xi was surprised again. Earlier when the old master told her what had happened, he hadn't mentioned that Qin Yan was to apply acupuncture on his legs to treat them. So Old Lady Xi looked at her husband with a face full of question marks.

Old Master looked at his wife and said, "Yan Yan said that she can relieve the pain in my legs by the use of acupuncture. So we had agreed that she would treat me after we returned back to our house."

"Oh okay okay," Old Lady Xi however was curious how Qin Yan knew all this, "Yan Yan, how do you know acupuncture? Will the Old man's legs really get better?"

"We have tried many treatments, but as he is ageing, his legs' condition is worsening and the doctors said that nothing can be done. Are you sure that you can treat him?"

"Grandma, don't worry. I won't try trial and error method on Grandpa. I am sure that I can heal him that's why I said so. If I had even one percent doubt about this, I wouldn't try it on Grandpa," Qin Yan assured Old Lady Xi.

Hearing Qin Yan, Old Lady Xi immediately cheered up. How could she not be happy knowing that her husband's chronic problem would be solved! 

Old Master Xi had single-handedly brought the Xi family in the line of the top grade families. He was a valuable asset to the country as well as the Xi family. As for those who could touch his body, which of them were not experienced professors?

However, in this situation where the old master had met Qin Yan only two times, he did not hesitate to become her lab rat. In truth, this was all because the old master's love for Xi Ting had been transferred to Qin Yan. 

Even the old lady trusted her just after hearing few words from her. 

However, Qin Yan would not betray this trust.

When she was coming to the Xi mansion today, she passed by a shop from where she had brought a lot of fire cups with her for future use. Coincidentally, they came in handy today.

To bring the Xi family to the top, Old Master Xi had to go through many dangers. Sometimes even his life was endangered. 

The old master had been shot in the leg before, and he was shot more than once. A bullet pierced through his leg and brushed past his kneecap, destroying the meridians inside. Even though the bullet passed through, the blood clot that had accumulated inside after the wound healed caused severe varicose veins. 

What Qin Yan needed to do was extract the blood that had clotted outside the blood vessels and use acupuncture to speed up the blood flow in the old master's legs.

This way, even if he lived in a piercingly cold weather, his leg would no longer be unable to walk due to the pressure from the blood clot and extreme swelling.

The old master's medical team was supposed to be very adept, and they were considered the creme de la creme in the country. The reason why they could not treat his leg was partly that the old master was too old—surgery was unsuitable for him. The post-surgery effects might be much more serious than the current injury caused by the varicose veins. 

On the other hand, this kind of illness could keep returning, which was commonly known as relapses. 

It would be very likely that before the cut was completely healed, the area where the incision happened might form a thrombus due to the newly applied pressure.

Therefore, this kind of illness was usually treated conservatively.

However, when the blood vessels contracted in cold weather, it would make the already narrow blood vessels even narrower.

The congestion of blood in the blood vessels would cause severe thrombosis. Therefore, when the old master went out in the winter, he could only move about in a wheelchair.

Qin Yan turned on the air-conditioner in the room. Once it was in normal temperature, she invited the old master to change into a pair of loose-fitting lounge pants. After she helped him roll up his pants, she started to put needles into his legs.

The old master did not even get to blink when the long silver needle went down. He was calm when he accepted her treatment. 

"Grandpa, aren't you afraid?"

Qin Yan observed the old master's condition carefully as she administered acupuncture to wherever necessary. At the same time, she chatted with him to ease his anxiety.

"Hehehe, what's there to be afraid of? Grandpa has seen all kinds of bullets in his life, so why would I be afraid of this? Furthermore, you put the needles in very well. I don't feel any pain at all."

"Grandpa is so awesome. In the future, I'll follow Big Brother Xi Ting and accompany him to obtain such achievements, too."

"Very well, very well, very well!" The old man chuckled. He was proud of Qin Yan's ambition. However…

"However, compared to obtaining merits, I hope that you and Xi Ting live a great life. Your health is more important to me than anything else. Do you understand me, Yan Yan?"

"Mmhmm," Qin Yan lowered her head as she nodded. 

"Eh?"

"What's wrong, Grandpa?"

Upon hearing the old master's exclamation, Qin Yan thought that he was feeling unwell and quickly asked.

"Why do I feel that the soles of my feet are hot, and there's a warm feeling flowing down my legs?"

"Grandpa, actually, after the silver needle went in, it opened up your blood vessels. That's why the blood in your body flowed to the soles of your feet and then back to your legs. This means that your blood circulation has been cleared."

The old man looked at his leg, which was instantly filled with blood after just a few silver needles. He looked at the veins that were protruding like caterpillars on his leg, which were slowly recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. The shock in his heart could not be described with words.

If the needles had helped him recover instantly from the shortness of breath previously, he still could claim that he solved it himself. However, at this moment, while the illness that even the professors from capital's e-lessons could not solve, Academy could not cure was defeated in just a few exchanges with Qin Yan. This shocked him.

"Yan Yan, your acupuncture skills are extraordinary!" 

Qin Yan smiled and said, "As long as we can perform acupuncture for more than seven days consecutively, you'll be able to walk without crutches for at least a month. It won't be a problem for you to walk outdoors for three months."

Qin Yan's words shocked the Old Master once again.

Mainly, he was used to sitting on a wheelchair or walking with crutches. Now that he was told that he could walk outside with a walking stick for three months, his shock knew no bounds. 

"Real… really?"

"Yes, yes, Grandpa, you can visit your friends without crutches."

"Yan Yan, your acupuncture skills are amazing! You're not even 20 years old yet, how do you have such amazing acupuncture skills?"

"I'll tell you, Grandpa, but you

can't tell anyone just yet!"

Hearing that there was a secret to share, the old man's eyes lit up.
