麻木 [má mù] [ma mu]—
1. Medically, it refers to the complete loss of "知覺 [zhi jue]" (sensation/consciousness), divided into three types: "全身 [quan shen]" (general numbness), "局部 [ju bu]" (local numbness), and "部位 [bu wei]" (regional numbness).
From "《西遊記 [xi you ji]》" (Journey to the West), Chapter 40: "沙僧 [sha seng]" (Sha Wujing) heard this, was startled, and with his "渾身 [hun shen]" (whole body numb) said: "Senior brother, what are you talking about? We were sinful in our previous lives, but thanks to the persuasion of "觀世音菩薩 [guan shi yin pu sa]" (Guanyin Bodhisattva), she touched our heads and gave us precepts, changed our "法名 [fa ming]" (dharma names), and we converted to Buddhism."
From "《儒林外史 [ru lin wai shi]》" (The Scholars), Chapter 11: "Last night, I fell, "半身 [ban shen]" (half of my body was numb), and my mouth and eyes were somewhat crooked."
2. To mock someone who is insensitive or dull, unable to rouse themselves. For example: "不仁 [bu ren]" (numb and insensitive/apathetic).
麻木：1.醫學上稱知覺完全喪失，分為全身麻木、局部麻木及部位麻木三種。《西遊記》第四○回：「沙僧聞言，打了一個失驚，渾身麻木道：『師兄，你都說的是那裡話，我等因生前有罪，感蒙觀世音菩薩勸化，與我們摩頂受戒，改換法名，皈依佛果。』」《儒林外史》第一一回：「昨晚跌了一交，半身麻木，口眼有些歪斜。」
2.譏人感覺頑鈍，不能振作。如：「麻木不仁」。
