Chapter 29: Ancient Methods
"Looking at Cheng Lao's technique, as well as the smell of medicine, it should be Chuanwu. "There is no stage fright at all in Takayama.
But such a sentence could not make Cheng Huanzhen and Li Shengzu have any change in their expressions. Since it is an elite specially selected by Cheng Huanzhen. If you don't even have this common sense, then you don't deserve the word elite. Cheng Huan really wants the genius of traditional Chinese medicine, not the cultivation of zero foundation.
Gao Shan continued: "The current cannon burns and pays attention to two points, there is no dry heart and no white heart inside. It is used for wind, cold, dampness, joint pain and anesthesia and pain relief. ”
"Let's talk about the point!" Li Shengzu couldn't hold back his impatient mood, there was a subtext he didn't say, these are things that everyone knows, do you need to be born like a young person to popularize this knowledge?
Chuanwu is a poisonous Chinese medicine, and if you can't burn it properly, you have to eat the dead. The so-called inner dry without heart and no white heart inside are all professional terms. After the fresh Chuanwu is selected, it is dried until the inside of the Chuanwu is dry and not wet, which is the inner dryness and no heart. The inner absence of white heart refers to the time of boiling, and the method used to make Chuanwu is boiled. Boiling water boils for 4-6 hours, at this time, the big one is selected to come out and cut it, and there is no white heart inside Chuanwu, which is basically completed.
Gao Shan said directly at this moment: "Cheng Lao, why don't I try it?"
Cheng Lao was stunned for a moment, Chuanwu's cannon burning is not something that can be completed in a day or two, just drying, boiling, and then drying to about sixty percent...... But Cheng Lao had some different ideas, since Gao Shan dared to say so, there should be a quick way.
Cheng Lao nodded and said, "Okay." I'd love to see how you got it. ”
Speaking of this, Cheng Lao paused, suddenly remembered a question, and asked, "It's a little abrupt, classmate Gao Shan, can we observe?"
Gao Shan laughed: "What's wrong with this." This is how our Chinese medicine has declined step by step. Each genre, even different medicine names, has its own unique secrets, ancestral recipes, and so on. It is precisely because of this idea of self-cherishing that the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine has gradually weakened. There's nothing I can't see in my medical skills, and there's nothing I can't learn. ”
"Okay!" Cheng Huan was really excited and gave a thumbs up directly. People trembled a little: "That's it, with a successor of Chinese medicine like you, why worry about the lack of Chinese medicine!"
Takayama stopped talking, but directly took out some fresh Chuanwu from the side. Take it in your hand and weigh it. Takayama saw the difference. Today's Chinese medicinal materials are generally cultivated artificially. But Cheng Lao's here is fundamentally different from the outside, whether it is color, texture or other aspects, a comparison can find the extraordinaryness of these medicinal materials. It turned out to be all natural and wild Chinese medicinal materials.
Next, the charcoal fire began to rise directly in the high mountains. Grill all the fresh black water. When Li Shengzu saw this scene, he shook his head directly, a trace of disdain flashed on his face, and his expression was a little contemptuous. Too bold. I've never seen anything like this. This is an intangible cultural heritage that has been handed down to this day. The burning of each medicinal herb is very particular. Although there are many ways to burn it. I've never heard of this system. It's such a mess, it's going to eat the dead.
Takayama's technique is fast. It can be described as dazzling. These fresh Sichuan wu are grilled by charcoal fire, and under the shaking of the mountains, it is as if they are being grilled. Soon there was a burst of smell. The surface is also gradually turning brown.
Immediately afterwards, Takayama directly packed these Chuanwu in a container and sealed them with plastic wrap. Then I put it in the freezer next to it, and there were a lot of ice cubes around the container and even on top of the plastic wrap.
"Cheng Lao, isn't this nonsense? I've never seen such a concoction of Sichuan Wu. Can this be used in medicine?" Li Shengzu finally couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
Cheng Huanzhen's heart was also shocked. But I still held back. Raised his hand and said, "Shengzu, don't be impatient." Your heart is in turmoil. Traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for 5,000 years or more. Who's to say that our method of fire is the only one?"
Although the sound was small, Takayama could hear it clearly. After cultivating the Taichu Health Sutra, Gao Shan's physical fitness is also gradually changing. What's more, Li Shengzu didn't think about avoiding him at all. and not afraid of him to hear it.
Gao Shan also felt some emotion in his heart. Cheng Lao's bearing is admirable. It is no wonder that others can become one of the masters of traditional Chinese medicine in the south and the north.
In fact, the medical inheritance is not based on the method of freezing. The artillery burning methods in the inheritance all require qi techniques to cooperate. Takayama's current cultivation is not enough, so it can only be assisted by modern methods. Wait until Chuanwu cools down to the normal temperature level. Gao Shan just took it out. The next cannon is almost the same as Cheng Lao's. It's all boiled for a few hours.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Gao Shan completed the whole cannon burning, looking at the Sichuan Wu in front of him, the color was less greenish brown than the ordinary Sichuan Wu, and there was more golden texture. The smell is also much more harmonious than that of the general Kagawa Uhei.
Cheng Lao picked up a slice, touched it lightly with the tip of his tongue, tried it slightly, frowned and said, "Gao Shan, how do I feel that the toxicity of this Chuanwu is stronger." ”
These words immediately made Li Shengzu's eyes light up, and he said directly: "Cheng Lao, I'll just say that it's not okay to do this." The purpose of making Chuanwu is to remove the toxicity of Chuanwu. Now this Sichuan Wu is very toxic, so how can it be used? ”
Gao Shan was not in a hurry and said: "Cheng Lao, what Mr. Li said is actually what I want to say." Since it is poison, it is necessary to fight poison with poison. I don't think it's a good thing that the toxicity of Chuanwu has decreased, but there is no better way to reconcile the current Chinese medicine in terms of compatibility and prescriptions. ”
"What do you mean? Are you saying that Chinese medicine doesn't know how to use medicine now? Gao Shan, you are too arrogant. Li Shengzu was immediately angry. He was a pure man with a lot of respect for Chinese medicine. Gao Shan's words undoubtedly touched his bottom line.
However, Cheng Lao's eyes lit up at the moment, and he seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly looked at Gao Shan excitedly, laughed and said, "I understand." I see why. It is no wonder that the ancient recipes we later found from many archaeological sites, including rare books, are not of much value. Before, we all thought it was a matter of prescription. Now it seems that this is a problem with medicinal herbs. ”
Speaking of this, Cheng Huanzhen suddenly looked at Gao Shan eagerly and said, "Xiao Gao, are you burning this ancient artillery?
