The facilities of Yun Hua Stadium were luxurious, and the experience was excellent.
But that was only for the front stage.
When they entered the backstage, aside from the tiles under their feet that were exactly the same as the front stage, the paint on the wall, the width of the corridor, and even the height of the floors were greatly inferior.
The backstage of the stadium in the 90s was still the same as it was now. It made people feel as if they had traveled through time.
The smell in the corridor was also unpleasant. The smell of sweat, plastic, and garbage alternated, and occasionally mixed together. It made people wonder what had happened here.
Ling Ran frowned and followed Li Lei. Soon, he entered a prop room and saw a few dancers with cramps in their legs.
The three female dancers were young, and their makeup was a little fantastical. They wore ballet costumes and white stockings on their legs. At this time, they were leaning against the chairs, frowning and sweating profusely while pressing their skirts with pillows and hats.
"All three of you have cramps?" Ling Ran was a little surprised. 'You guys are too uniform.'
"The stage is not smooth. We stepped on it and did two moves, and then it went wrong." The dancer in the middle was petite and cute. She looked at Ling Ran and blushed.
Li Lei coughed and said, "Now is not the time to look for the reason. Let's solve the problem first. Doctor Ling, can you cure it? "
Before entering the prop room, Li Lei had suggested that Ling Ran judge whether they could continue to be the dance accompaniment. If not, she would look for the dance director to change the dance accompaniment plan.
"I'll try first." The massage skills Ling Ran currently possessed were limited to the head, cervical spine, and back. It did not include the legs. However, the three massage skills he possessed were all at Master Level. Aside from the head massage, which was ranked 79th in the country, the cervical spine and back massage were ranked top 50 in the country.
The addition of the three skills undoubtedly increased Ling Ran's understanding of massage skills.
At this time, he was using the three skills as an example. If Ling Ran wanted to massage the legs, he might not be able to reach Master Level, but it was still possible for him to reach Specialist Level or Sub-Specialist Level.
As for Specialist Level Skills, a slightly smarter osteopathic surgeon would need to spend six to eight years before they could master them. It was more than enough to deal with the most common cramps in the legs.
"Lean over a little." Ling Ran took out the small bottle of alcohol-based hand sanitizer he carried with him, wiped his hands, and put his hand on the female dancer's thigh.
Girls who often danced had slender and powerful legs. When pressed with a finger, they had great resistance to pressure.
Ling Ran increased his strength, and the female dancer immediately cried out, "Ah …"
Ling Ran nodded and said, "Looks like it's just a normal muscle spasm. I'll deal with it."
"Can you handle it? Can we still go on stage? "Li Lei asked anxiously.
She asked Ling Ran to come over because she wanted to know if the three of them could still go on stage. Otherwise, they could just rest and recover from minor problems like muscle spasms. There was no need for her to trouble Ling Ran.
What Li Lei did not want to do the most was to give Ling Ran psychological hints, as if his medical skills were very useful.
"Ah …" The female dancer screamed again.
Ling Ran did not say a word. He grabbed the muscles with all his might and used the kneading method to relieve the muscles' resistance.
It was not like the massage for the cervical vertebrae, where he could operate it as if it were light. It was also not like the massage for the head, where he had a variety of massage methods to choose from.
Ling Ran was not familiar with leg massage. His understanding of the anatomical drawings of the lower limbs was also limited to what he learned in medical school and the small amount of reading he had recently.
This made Ling Ran need to spend a little more time to deal with the spasming muscles that had curled up into a ball.
However, even so, Ling Ran's skill in leg massage, which could be said to be semi-self-taught, was still better than most of the ordinary attending physicians in traditional Chinese medicine hospitals. It was also better than most of the similar medical services that most hospitals could provide during this period of time.
"Ah … Ahhhh …" The female dancer screamed in a sour and coquettish manner. There was a slight tremble in her voice as she panted, and many people craned their necks to look at her.
Li Lei pulled a long face, but she could not close the door of the prop room. If she closed it, she would not be able to explain herself.
"It's done." Ling Ran massaged the female dancer's legs for a while, and his task was considered completed.
The girl, who was sweating from the pain, stood up instinctively. Although she was still a little unused to it, it did not hurt anymore. So, she nodded at Li Lei.
Li Lei immediately smiled, and she quickly said, "Doctor Ling, I'll have to trouble you with the remaining two. I'll give you a big red packet later. However, we have to pay attention to our speed. They still have to dance later. The concert will start in less than an hour, and they still have a lot of things to do. "
Ling Ran just nodded and said, "Both of you lie on both sides of me. I can massage both of you at the same time."
Ling Ran moved a chair to the middle of the room and pulled the chairs of the two dancers to his sides. He had one in each hand, so he could massage both of them at the same time.
Previously, he did not have much experience. Now, he found that using the techniques of the head massage, cervical massage, and back massage would have a good effect on the legs. Hence, he had the idea of massaging the legs at the same time.
"Ah …"
"Ah …"
Muscle spasms were already painful, and it was even more painful when they were massaged.
The two dancers were girls in their twenties. They had never suffered like this before, and they screamed one after another. The pillows and hats that were originally covering their skirts were also grabbed by them, and they flew all over the place.
Ling Ran's movements did not change at all. The more he massaged, the harder he used.
"Ah …"
"Ah …"
A head suddenly popped out from the door and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Eh, Shan … Mengxue, why did you come out?" Li Lei was shocked.
The two screaming female dancers also seemed to have suddenly lost their voices, and their screams stopped abruptly. The girl who screamed the loudest on Ling Ran's left grabbed her hat to cover her slightly fluttering skirt. Then, she endured the pain and called out, "Sister Xue."
Mengxue was tall and had long legs. When she walked into the room, she felt very pressured.
She looked at Mengxue, who was a little smaller than the dancers, and hummed in acknowledgment before asking, "What are you playing?"
"Oh … Um, their legs are injured, and I'm asking the doctor to massage them." Li Lei quickly went forward to explain and pushed Ling Ran.
Ling Ran had to turn halfway and introduce himself. "I'm a doctor from Yun Hua Hospital."
Mengxue only saw half of his face, and she asked in slight surprise, "Are you a doctor invited by the organizers?"
"No."
"No?"
"I'm a spectator." Ling Ran did not wait for Li Lei to explain and gave the answer.
Li Lei instantly had a bitter look on her face.
Mengxue, however, became happy. She widened her big and round eyes and said happily, "Are you my fan?"
Ling Ran shook his head slightly. "My mom is."
They all lowered their heads so that Mengxue would not see them laughing.
"I wanted to give you an autograph, but forget it." Mengxue pouted unhappily.
Ling Ran turned around indifferently and continued to massage them.
The two girls who had leg cramps did not dare to scream. They could only use something to cover their mouths and let out pitiful whimpering sounds.
Mengxue felt itchy all over as she watched.
As celebrities, they had to jump around every day, and there would always be some parts of their body that felt uncomfortable. Concert stars like Mengxue, who were known as the Dance Goddess, had too many cases of muscle soreness.
After all, Li Lei was a manager, and it was a basic requirement for her to be quick-witted. Before Ling Ran finished massaging the two dancers, she tentatively mentioned, "Doctor Ling, why don't you give Mengxue a massage? It's the cervical spine massage you gave me, and it's very good … "
"Give me two minutes." Ling Ran did not refuse.
When he sat in the audience seats, he was very anxious. Now that there was something to massage, he still cherished it very much.
Li Lei stole a glance at Mengxue and saw her standing in the room expressionlessly. She looked handsome and beautiful. She was not confident, but she did not dare to urge her.
Ling Ran said two minutes, and he meant it.
The two dancers were pushed to the back. Their hats were bitten until there were water stains. They lowered their heads and ran out.
Since they could run, it naturally meant that the problem of leg cramps had been solved.
While Li Lei breathed a sigh of relief, she thought about how to arrange for Ling Ran to massage Mengxue. Mengxue was a big celebrity. Would the media write nonsense if someone touched her skin? Should she inform Mengxue's manager? The concert was about to start. How much time did she have to prepare?
Ling Ran took out the alcohol-based hand sanitizer that he carried with him and handed it to Mengxue. "Apply it on the parts that you want to massage, including your neck and shoulders."
Mengxue was stunned for a moment. She picked up the alcohol-based hand sanitizer with uncertainty and began to apply it on her neck and shoulders.
In order to prepare for the concert, she had been suffering from long-term insomnia. Every morning, her muscles would ache.
She slowly and arduously applied some alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Without waiting for Mengxue to speak again, Ling Ran grabbed Mengxue's neck like an eagle grabbing a chick.
Mengxue shuddered, and her gaze became unfocused.
Since she became a big celebrity in her sophomore year, she was called Brother Shanyu or Sister Xue because of her good looks and strong background. She had never experienced being grabbed by the neck, but it felt really good.
Mengxue felt Ling Ran press down her cervical vertebrae gently and forcefully a few times. It was so comfortable that she wanted to moan.
At that moment, Mengxue suddenly thought of the three dancers just now, so she resisted the urge to make a sound.
Ling Ran's massage technique.
Mengxue did not make a sound.
Ling Ran's massage technique.
Mengxue did not make a sound.
Ling Ran's massage technique.
Mengxue did not make a sound.
To be honest, Mengxue was the quietest client Ling Ran had ever met after he obtained the massage technique.
However, Ling Ran's focus was never on the sound.
When he was massaging, he always paid attention to the progress of the task.
The original pain relief time of 25400 had become more than 26000 in just a few dozen seconds.
