Chapter 379

Matthew directly walked toward another patient.

“Your master’s treatment method for this patient was right but he didn’t puncture the needle at the right
acupuncture point!”

Hearing this, Leonard was furious. “Young man, I know that you have great medical skills but that doesn’t
mean you can talk nonsense. I have studied acupuncture for over fifty years and know the meridian
points of the human body very well. I may make mistakes but I would never get an acupuncture point
wrong.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. After all, Leonard was one of the top acupuncturists in the country,
which was why the audience found it hard to believe in Matthew’s words.

With a smile, Matthew replied, “Is that so? Well then, Leonard, come and touch his left rib yourself and
tell me how it is different from a normal person’s rib!”

Doubtful, Leonard walked over and felt the patient’s ribs for a moment before a look of shock appeared
on his face. “W-Why is his rib slightly out of place?”

Matthew answered, “In acupuncture, remembering acupuncture points isn’t that meaningful. This is
because the human body moves. Because of this, acupuncture points occasionally move around too.

For example, in his current situation, the ribs are slightly misaligned, so the acupuncture points of this
part of the meridian will also move with it.

Therefore, the position of your needle has deviated a little. Of course, the impact is actually not big and
he can still recover fully albeit slowly. However, for treating a patient, your needle placement is a bit
wrong.”



After Matthew finished speaking, he pulled out one silver needle and punctured it into the patient’s body
again. Everyone was staring intently so they saw that he had only shifted the needle slightly. However,
even though it was just a small change, it made a great impact on the patient’s condition.



Before this, Leonard only treated him with a few needles, prescribed some medicine for the patient and
asked him to return home and recuperate slowly. However, with a single needle from Matthew, the
patient looked energized. It was easy to tell at a glance that the patient’s condition had improved a lot.

Leonard staggered a little and in a trembling voice, he said, “I never thought that there would be so much
more to acupuncture. Mr. Larson, I have to admit that I’m not as good as you!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience gasped in shock. Leonard was one of the best doctors in
the country but he had just admitted that his medical skills were not as good as Matthew’s. This was
enough to show that Matthew’s medical skills were brilliant!

Right now, everyone was looking at Matthew excitedly. They couldn’t believe that a person as young as
him could possess such excellent medical skills. It wasn’t hard to tell that he had a bright future ahead of
him!

With a calm expression, Matthew said, “There’s nothing wrong with your treatment method for the third
patient, but I have a comment. From what I’ve seen, you used the Three Gathered Suns Acupuncture
Skill. This treatment method has great results, but it’s a pity that you’re so concerned about using the
three-needle treatment that sometimes you deliberately do not use the fourth needle.

Doing this is good for your reputation but sadly, it may not be the best for the patient. You have to
remember that the key to the Three Gathered Suns Acupuncture Skill is not the three-needles, but the
gathered energy that will help the patient recover.



As a medical practitioner, you should always place the treatment of the patient first. There is no need to
care about your reputation so much.”

Leonard felt as if he was struck by lightning. Back when his master taught him this skill, he had asked the
same question. Was the three-needles more important or was the gathering of energy more important?
After hearing Matthew’s words, the doubts that had lingered in his mind for decades were finally solved.

After a moment of silence, Leonard suddenly bowed and respectfully said, “Mr. Larson, thank you for
your teachings! Your words have taught me more than the studies I’ve done for the past ten years. Mr.
Larson, please accept my gesture of respect!”

As soon as Leonard finished speaking, he fell to his knees and kowtowed, causing everyone at the
scene to be dumbfounded. They couldn’t believe that Leonard actually kneeled before a young man!
