Chapter 4

Not long after, an elderly man in his seventies descended from upstairs. His complexion was ruddy, his eyes bright, and he exuded vigor and vitality, clearly well-maintained. Nowadays, the elderly all know a few health-preserving techniques.

"Old Mr. Pan."

Seeing the old man come down, Shen Jing immediately stood up from the sofa. Mo Wen also hurriedly got up, not just because he had something to ask for today, but also because of Professor Pan's prestigious status in the national academic community, which he could not afford to neglect.

"Sit, both of you, sit. Don’t be拘束, young people should be energetic."

Old Mr. Pan was quite amiable, gesturing for Shen Jing and Mo Wen to sit down, and he himself sat on the sofa opposite them.

"You are Mo Wen, right?"

Pan Aiguo gave Mo Wen a slightly scrutinizing look and asked straight to the point.

"Yes, it's me."

Mo Wen nodded, not surprised that Old Mr. Pan knew his name. Given that he had come to visit for two days, Shen Jing must have made an appointment with Old Mr. Pan yesterday and probably told him about the matter.

"I've heard about your situation and your purpose today. I understand that you know a massage technique that can alleviate heart disease, a secret family method?"

Pan Aiguo nodded. Although he felt some sympathy for Mo Wen's plight, society has always been like this, and it's not something anyone can change. Compared to Mo Wen's injustice, he was far more interested in the secret family method Mo Wen possessed.

"That's correct. This technique is very effective for improving blood circulation in the heart chambers and can suppress sudden heart disease, but it can only provide some relief."

Mo Wen knew that if he wanted Old Mr. Pan to help him, he had to offer something satisfactory. He had already decided before coming that he would teach the technique, as it was not a high-level method and in the world he remembered, it was a common technique known even to quacks, with effects limited to alleviating symptoms and increasing the time for medical intervention, not curing the disease.

"Oh, could you explain it a bit? I'm quite interested."

Old Mr. Pan, upon hearing this, immediately looked at Mo Wen with interest. He knew some massage techniques that could alleviate heart pressure, but he had never heard of a technique that could directly unblock the blood flow in a patient with acute myocardial infarction. If it were true, it would be a valuable asset in the medical field, as many heart disease patients die due to the lack of timely medical intervention.

"Since Old Mr. Pan is interested, I won't keep it to myself."

Mo Wen smiled and began to explain the essence of the technique in a concise manner. Shen Jing, seeing how easily Mo Wen spoke, was quite different from yesterday, glared at him fiercely. This guy really didn't reveal anything until he saw the fish, but today, with Old Mr. Pan, he didn't hesitate at all.

Opportunist...! Shen Jing silently cursed in her heart. However, she quickly dismissed her thoughts and focused on listening to Mo Wen's explanation, as she had seen the technique's magic with her own eyes and was eager to understand its secrets.

In fact, most heart diseases are caused by blood disorders, primarily due to poor blood circulation in the heart chambers, leading to fatal emergencies that can be fatal in a short time.

Mo Wen's technique involves massaging and squeezing blood vessels throughout the body to externally unblock the heart chamber's blood vessels, thus maintaining smooth blood flow in the heart. If this technique is used for a long time, it can suppress the onset of diseases like myocardial infarction.

As Mo Wen explained, both Old Mr. Pan and Shen Jing listened intently, sometimes frowning in deep thought, and other times suddenly enlightened. Mo Wen's massage technique had some similarities with existing medical techniques, but also significant differences, causing them to understand some parts but not others.

It took Mo Wen about half an hour to explain the essence of the technique. It was not easy to express, as it was from another world, and he had to translate it, doubting whether Old Mr. Pan and Shen Jing could understand.

After the explanation, the living room fell into a brief silence. Old Mr. Pan and Shen Jing were deep in thought, and Mo Wen remained silent. Lin Qing was busy in the kitchen.

"This technique is indeed profound and unique in many ways, but it is truly remarkable. The creator of this technique must have had an in-depth understanding of the human body's blood and meridians, which is truly awe-inspiring."

After a while, Old Mr. Pan sighed, although he did not fully understand the technique, he could grasp some parts, which opened up many medical problems that had troubled him before, not unlike listening to a lecture by a medical master.

As for Shen Jing, her beautiful face still showed some confusion, clearly not as deeply understanding as Old Mr. Pan.

Mo Wen looked at Old Mr. Pan with some surprise. Although he was familiar with the technique, explaining it was another matter. The languages of the two worlds were different, and it was not easy to translate it accurately, especially since he was not very familiar with modern Chinese medical terms, making it difficult to express many parts, like a middle school student translating a foreign academic paper.

But even so, Old Mr. Pan could grasp some of the essence, worthy of his status as a master in the medical field.

"Mo Wen, can you teach me this technique? If there are any conditions, just say them. I will do my best to meet them."

Old Mr. Pan looked straight at Mo Wen with a kind expression. From Mo Wen's explanation, although many parts were unclear, it was undoubtedly a unique technique with significant value to modern medicine. Although Mo Wen had explained the principles, the specific operations still needed to be taught, as there was a significant difference between theory and practice.

"Since Old Mr. Pan likes it, I won't keep it to myself. However, this technique is quite complex, and it has been passed down through generations of my family, requiring a lot of time. I am not familiar with modern medical terms and knowledge, so teaching it to others will be difficult."

Mo Wen did not lie. The technique was indeed passed down from his family in the other world, and many terms were from that world, making it easy to teach in that language but difficult in modern Chinese.

For example, it would be as difficult as a middle school student explaining the Four Books and Five Classics in English in Britain. Although the technique was simple and widely applicable, he was unwilling to teach it to Shen Jing because he feared the trouble and was not sure he could teach it effectively.

"Understood, but this is not urgent. You want to study medicine, right? I will contact the Huaxia University administration tomorrow and appoint you as my assistant, enrolling you in Huaxia University for further study. Once you have a solid medical foundation, you can teach me this technique."

Old Mr. Pan, being a wise person, knew that if Mo Wen was willing to share his family's secret technique, he should not be ungrateful. From Mo Wen's explanation, he also knew that Mo Wen lacked medical terminology, which is why many parts were unclear. Although he could use the technique to treat patients, he did not fully understand the principles, let alone teach it to others.

Once Mo Wen had a systematic medical education, he would have a deeper understanding of the technique and could teach it more easily.

"Thank you, Old Mr. Pan. Once I have achieved something, I will definitely teach this technique to promote the progress of our country's medical field."

Mo Wen was pleased that the matter was settled and said a polite but neutral statement.

They chatted a bit more and discussed some details about Mo Wen entering Huaxia University. Just as they were about to leave, the phone in the living room rang urgently.

Old Mr. Pan answered the phone with some confusion, hung up after a few words, and his expression turned slightly grim.

"Old Mr. Pan, what happened?"

Shen Jing asked softly, knowing that something must have happened to make Old Mr. Pan frown.

"A friend of mine suddenly fell ill and may not last much longer."

Old Mr. Pan sighed, seemingly helpless.

"Fallen ill! You can't cure it?"

Shen Jing's eyes showed surprise. Old Mr. Pan was one of the top doctors in the country, with expertise in many fields, usually doing medical research and occasionally treating some national leaders. A disease that could stump Old Mr. Pan was rare.

"My friend's illness is quite peculiar. I have studied medicine for nearly half a century and have never seen such a strange illness. I have been researching it for years but still haven't found a solution. I can only suppress the symptoms. After several years, this time, my friend may not survive."

Old Mr. Pan said with concern. With his status, he had few long-time friends, and each loss was a significant blow.

"I must go now and see if there is any way to suppress the symptoms."

Saying this, Old Mr. Pan hurried into the room, packed quickly, and prepared to leave.

Mo Wen and Shen Jing exchanged a glance, knowing it was time to leave, and they both stood up to say goodbye.

"Old Mr. Pan, we will take our leave today and visit again another day."

Shen Jing stood up and said, knowing that the matter was settled and Mo Wen could no longer refuse her.

"Oh, okay, welcome to visit again."

Old Mr. Pan responded hurriedly, preparing to leave, but then seemed to remember something. "Wait, do you want to come with me? Xiao Jing, you are a doctor too. My friend's illness is quite peculiar, and it might be beneficial for you to see it."

Mo Wen and Shen Jing exchanged a glance, unsure why Old Mr. Pan said this, but since he invited them, they could not refuse.

"Since Old Mr. Pan invites us, we will not decline."

Seeing Mo Wen did not object, Shen Jing nodded. She was also curious about Old Mr. Pan's friend's illness, wondering what could stump him.

"Let's go then."

Saying this, Old Mr. Pan hurriedly led them out. He had a sudden idea to bring Shen Jing and Mo Wen along. Mo Wen's explanation had deeply impressed him, and he felt that Mo Wen might have some new knowledge that could help. Of course, he knew it was a long shot, but he was willing to try.
