Chapter 14: Traditional Chinese Medicine

"Sister, you were born on June 6, I was born on June 5, you were born 1 day later than me, you are my sister!" Ding Lingling said while typing in her mobile phone.

"Today is May 10th, and it's your birthday in less than a month. Yang Xingchen said with emotion.

"Well, you can prepare your gift first!" Ding Lingling said with a smile.

"Definitely!definitely!" replied Yang Xingchen with a smile.

"I said to Silly Mutou that we would gather downstairs at my house the morning after tomorrow, and he would drive us there, a total of five people, he and his brother and the three of us. Ding Lingling said.

"I'll pick you up at your house the morning after tomorrow, and then we'll go to Lingling's house together. Zhu Yan said to Yang Xingchen.

"Well, okay, I'm sorry for you. ”

"It's fine. Zhu Yan smiled and said, "Then there's nothing to do today, we're leaving." ”

"Ahh

"Wow, there are a lot of dishes~ Yan Yan! Then let's finish dinner and leave." Ding Lingling didn't know when she walked into the kitchen, pointed to a pile of rich ingredients and said, "Auntie, let me make dinner!"

"How can this work! You're a guest, of course I'm here to do it. Yang Xingchen's mother hurriedly said.

"Auntie, let Lingling cook it together, she's a big chef! Zhu Yan said with a smile.

"Ahh

"Auntie, let me show you tonight!" Ding Lingling put on the sleeve and apron hanging on the shelf, and began to process the ingredients.

"If you need any help, just tell me that I'm learning how to cook as a chef. Yang Xingchen's mother said.

"Yes aunt. ”

"Here's a tomahawk steak, it's already thawed, how long will it take to bake it in the oven?" Yang Xingchen asked, pointing to the tomahawk steak next to the oven.

"I'll take a look...... Well, let's bake it half an hour before dinner, you put it first. Ding Lingling looked at the steak and said.

"Oh, okay. Yang Xingchen replied.

Ding Lingling suddenly turned around and admonished: "That's right! Before baking, tear off the plastic film, tear off the plastic film, tear off the plastic film! Say important things three times!"

"Well, remember!" Yang Xingchen hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Idle, Yang Xingchen and Zhu Yan sat down in the living room and began to chat.

"Your father and brother are both Western doctors, why don't you study Western medicine instead of Chinese medicine?"

"I've been asked this question a lot, but I was a big fan of Western medicine when I was a kid. However, as I grew up, as I learned more about Western medicine, and the topics I usually heard my father and brother talk about, I found that Western medicine has now encountered a bottleneck, and the development speed is getting slower and slower. ”

"Cancer, rabies, these diseases that could not be cured before, and there is still no good solution. ”

"And colds, coughs, fevers and other diseases that are often born, go to the Western medicine hospital and give you some medicine to eat. Moreover, many of the medicines dispensed by Western medicine hospitals are Chinese patent medicines, and the side effects are relatively small. But in fact, these minor illnesses will also get better quickly if they go to the Chinese medicine hospital to prepare some Chinese medicine, and there are no side effects. ”

"Let me ask you a question, if you are sick and you must have surgery, should you go to a Western medicine hospital for surgery, or a Chinese medicine hospital for surgery?"

"Of course, I went to a Western medicine hospital for surgery, but I really didn't know that a Chinese medicine hospital could also do surgery. ”

That's what most people answered. In fact, in the ancient times of our Zhongtian Huaxia, traditional Chinese medicine surgery was already very developed. ”

"As early as three to four thousand years ago, people began to use medical instruments made of stones for surgery. ”

"More than 2,000 years ago, the miracle doctor Huatuo invented the anesthetic 'Ma Boiling Powder'. ”

"Fifteen hundred years ago, the suture 'mulberry thread' was invented. ”

"In ancient surgery, there were also various ointments, washes, and excellent surgical drugs such as derotting, muscle-building, convergence and healing, etc., to help stop bleeding and heal after surgery. ”

"And the real development of Western medicine is only a short period of more than 300 years. But for some reason, more than 1,000 years ago, Chinese medicine began to decline, and the inheritance was broken, and in modern times, Chinese medicine even regressed, which ushered in the opportunity for the popularization of Western medicine, which is developing rapidly. In just over 100 years, the dominance of modern Western medicine in the medical field has been established, and more and more people have begun to question Chinese medicine and doubt its role in curing and preventing diseases. ”

"My dad and my brother often argued at home about what the patient had, and both of them made a lot of sense, both of them were judged by the patient's symptoms, but often after ruling out many causes, there were still two or three very similar causes left. To confirm the diagnosis, the only way to do this is to use drugs first. If it works, it can be diagnosed, and if it doesn't, it is the wrong medicine. But most of the time, if you use the wrong medicine, the toxic side effects of the drug will aggravate the original condition, and even be fatal. Therefore, a somewhat complicated case will become a guess and medicine, and the diagnosis rate of many Western medicine hospitals is not more than 50%. ”

"These are the things that made me more and more interested in TCM. ”

"But after five years of studying Chinese medicine, I was confused again. The knowledge of theories is 2,000 years ago, and these theories are very mysterious, what yin and yang five elements, what meridian acupuncture points, what luck theory, with modern science can not be well explained. The methods of moxibustion, articulation, and pulse image are also based on these theoretical foundations that cannot be thoroughly explained. This has seriously affected the development of traditional Chinese medicine, and you don't even understand how to develop it. ”

"Nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine hospitals have also begun to dispense Chinese patent medicines to patients, and ointments and decoctions have become used for conditioning and prevention, which is completely close to the rhythm of Western medicine. ”

"This is also the reason why I have not been to the Chinese medicine hospital for more than half a year after graduation. ”

"But what happened to you made me interested in Chinese medicine again!"

"Open up the second pulse of Rendu, I laughed out loud when I first heard it~ But now your feet can heal so quickly, and your body has become strong and energetic, which proves that the meridians of the human body are real, but we haven't studied them thoroughly!"

"And now you say that there are indeed aliens, and I joined the 'Catch Aliens Chat Group' because I doubt that there was a highly developed civilization in Zhongtian Huaxia before ancient times, and Chinese medicine was transmitted to Zhongtian Huaxia in ancient times. Because it is written in the Yellow Emperor's internal scripture that in the era of the Yellow Emperor, people's general life expectancy was only more than 50 years old, while in the era before the Yellow Emperor, people's life expectancy was more than 100 years old. But there are no ancient books that show that this civilization existed, and no archaeological discoveries of any relics of that civilization have been found. ”

"I can only guess at the special reason why all the people of that civilization left the earth. No one was left to guide the development of human civilization, nor did it leave any useful scientific and technological achievements to mankind. This shows that the civilization did not evolve on the earth, they have no affection for the earth, they should all be aliens from far, far away from space. ”
