Master Head of the Dragon Soul
Chapter 360

"Hey, Chu Feng, I don't mean to be rude, but... can you really treat Dou Dou's legs?" Yang Gang asked. He seemed hesitant.

As much as he wanted to trust Chu Feng's abilities, he had suffered too many setbacks and disappointments over the years. All the major hospitals and experts across the country he had visited had told him they could not do anything about his son's muscular dystrophy.

"I'm eighty percent sure," Chu Feng said calmly. "In the field of acupuncture, muscular dystrophy is caused by the imbalance of humors leading to an obstruction of the veins and meridians. As long as the obstruction can be cleared so that blood can flow normally, the problem will be all but solved. After that, it's all up to his perseverance. He'll have to exercise hard even though it'll be painful and tough, and he'll be back to normal after a year."

The moment Chu Feng saw Yang Doudou, he had been thinking of how to treat the boy's legs. For the past few days, he had been studying the Collection of Mystical Healing, and he finally found a way. "Are... Are you sure you can treat him?"

Yang Gang was shocked by Chu Feng's claim. If none of the famous hospitals or experts could cure his son, how could Chu Feng be better than them?

"Hmph! My daddy is more amazing than you think he is!" Duo Duo lifted her chin and proclaimed smugly.

Chu Feng burst out laughing and gently pinched his daughter's cheek. "Don't worry, Yang Gang. Dou Dou is a good boy. Nobody would want him to be stuck in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, and I happen to be someone who can dispense a miracle."

After that, with movements so quick that their eyes could barely follow, Chu Feng inserted twelve needles into various points on Yang Doudou's calves, knees, and thighs.

The technique he employed was called "Spring Returns." It was the second technique of the Jiugong Acupuncture Method, and it was a miraculous technique against muscular diseases.

After applying the needles, Chu Feng lit up the concoction of herbs. The soothing fragrance calmed the people's minds.

Even though Yang Gang and Cheng Meixin knew nothing of acupuncture, they could tell that Chu Feng was a master in the skill.

Don't tell me... there's hope for Dou Dou? That was what the couple was thinking. They saw hope once more.

Five minutes passed, then ten, then thirty...

"Do you feel anything?"

"No."

Yang Doudou still could not feel anything in his legs.

Chu Feng frowned hard. This can't be. My needles should have cleared the obstruction in his meridians. Why hasn't he felt anything yet?

"It's okay to give up, Chu Feng," Yang Gang said while patting Chu Feng's shoulder. "Even the best doctors can't do anything about Dou Dou's condition. I don't blame you."

Yang Gang and his wife had experienced too many letdowns. They had already grown numb.

"Yes. You've already done your best. I guess Dou Dou isn't lucky enough, and he'll still have to stay in the wheelchair. Oh, my poor son..." Cheng Meixin hugged Yang Doudou and began to cry.

"Mommy..."

Yang Doudou felt sad that his mother was crying. He pursed his lips, and tears began to fall from his eyes. His cries became louder and louder, and his face showed agony.

"Ah, Mommy! My legs... My legs hurt! They're swelling up! It feels like something is growing inside... Ah..."

"Dou Dou? What's wrong, Dou Dou?" Yang Gang and Cheng Meixin were shocked. They tried to comfort him, but a few seconds later, their worry became ecstasy.

"Dou Dou, you can feel your legs!"

"Dou Dou, do you feel anything? You can feel pain now! This is amazing!" Cheng Meixin was so excited that she began to laugh.

Chu Feng seemed to have realized something. "Aha, I know what I was missing! Emotions! Dou Dou is very weak now, and once he cries, his emotions cause the blood in his body to flow faster. That's why his legs can feel again!"
