Chapter 52: The Pulse of the Taigong
"On the second day of the first month of last month, I remember very clearly, the weather that day was very abnormal, the morning was still cloudless, the sky was clear, just after noon, I was treating people at that time, only to hear a thunder in the clear sky, that sound, I have never heard such a thunder in my life, as if it exploded in front of my ears, and the patients in the room were all startled. ”
"I just felt my heart beat so hard all of a sudden, I counted it myself, and it was more than three times faster than usual. I feel like my heart is going to pop out. For a while, he was out of breath and fell to the ground, thinking that he was going to repay this old life at that time. ”
When Tong Jianhua talked about it at this time, he still had palpitations, which showed how terrifying his feelings were at that time.
"When the patients saw them, they all hurriedly said goodbye and left, leaving me alone in the room. Speaking of this, Mr. Tong showed a wry smile, "I think I have saved countless people in my life, but when I have a problem myself, others have run away in a blink of an eye, this person is ......."
As he spoke, he instantly felt a gaffe, so he paused and continued: "After a while, the sky became darker and darker, and the originally clear sky became as dark as night. After lying on the ground for a while, I felt my heartbeat slow down again, and my consciousness and breathing gradually returned to normal. ”
I got up from the ground and turned on the light, only to see a young man sitting across the table. It's just that this person is not the one who lined up before, and he looks very raw. The legs are very long, and it looks like he should not be low. It's just that he's always sitting, and I've never seen him stand up, so I'm not sure how tall it is. ”
When I looked at him, he was smiling at me. When I was asked if my surname was Tong, and that he would see a doctor, I was very tired of seeing him so arrogant at such a young age. So he asked him angrily what was the matter, he was sick to see a doctor, and he left quickly if he was not sick. ”
The man was not angry, but still smiled and did not answer, but stretched out his hand and said that he would like to ask the gentleman to check his pulse. After his hand was put on it, it was very cool and slippery, and I don't know how many times it was slippery compared to ordinary people. The temperature of the whole person is very low, and the pulse pulse is completely different from that of ordinary people. It's very fine, it's very fast. I have never seen such a pulse in my life. ”
Mr. Tong's most confident thing in his life is that he can make extremely accurate judgments on 72 kinds of pulse images, whether it is yin and yang, false and real, six lewd and six evil, all of which can be seen as if they were fire. But this time it was a difficult one.
When the young man saw that I had been silent for a long time, he asked me what kind of illness he had, and that he could save me? I was speechless when he asked, and for a moment I was speechless, and I was ashamed. I had to answer truthfully, saying that I was not good at learning and had never diagnosed such a pulse. ”
When the man heard this, he sneered and began to say some cool words, such as vain fame, indiscriminate refill, etc., and I did not return the favor for a while, but just sat there and pondered what the situation was, and was bent on consulting the classics, hoping to find some clues, so I didn't care much about what he said. ”
Then I got up and went to the study in the inner room to check the books, but I did not know when he had left. ”
Tong Jianhua said that everyone secretly admired that the old man who was over the age of sixteen was still obsessed with medical skills. It can be seen that the reason why he can become a generation of people is not entirely based on ancestral medical skills, but also because of his continuous learning and research.
"Three days later, I still haven't found any of it. Those days were closed, and who would have thought that the young man would come again at dusk. It's still for me to take the pulse, but last time it was my left hand, and now it's my right hand. The pulse in his right hand became unusually large, and the speed was even faster than the last time. It felt like a blood vessel was going to burst. ”
Speaking of this, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Mr. Tong's face. I motioned for Shan Hao to take a few pieces of paper and wipe Mr. Tong's sweat.
After sweating, he continued, "I have never seen two completely different veins in my life, and it is really unprecedented that they should appear in the same person." So I grabbed the young man's other wrist to see if both hands were different. ”
Sure enough, the pulse in his left hand was still the same as it had been three days ago. Touching two strange pulses with two completely different hands, but not understanding either one, is an indescribable feeling for a person who has practiced medicine for decades. ”
Mr. Tong's face was full of frustration and exhaustion.
The young man smiled slightly, waved to the door, and an entourage came in, looking not very old, fifteen or sixteen years old, the young man said, he is also suffering from a hidden disease, which cannot be cured, please help me to check the pulse. ”
"The veins of the retinue could not be touched no matter what. I felt it all the way to the cheeks, and then I felt the pulse. But it was extremely slow, almost four or five times slower than ordinary people, and it took a long time to beat. After Mr. Tong finished speaking, he fell into deep thought, staring at the sky outside the door with his eyes hooked, thoughtful.
Obviously, the two men gave him a big blow to his self-confidence. Even now that I think about it, it's still hard to let go.
Zang Butian asked, "Then these two scales, are they from the two of them?"
A sentence pulled Mr. Tong back from his contemplation, nodded and said, "Those two people saw that I was helpless, and said that if they asked me about someone, if I knew, they would teach me these 36 lost Taigong pulse recipes." ”
This was undoubtedly a great temptation, so they asked who they were asking for. ”
Zang Butian and I glanced at each other at this time, thinking in our hearts that the one we inquired about must be the residence of his younger brother Tong Jianye.
"I didn't know that the person they asked was actually my younger brother! At that time, I was overjoyed, this was simply stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, and it took no effort to get there. I have only seen records in the classics, and it is said that it has been lost for thousands of years, and now it is so easy for me to obtain it, it is like pie in the sky. Mr. Tong's state at this time was completely different from that of Shicai, and his excitement was beyond words.
After the young man got the answer, he did not break his promise, and handed me a copy of the Taigong Pulse Formula. And handed me these two scales, saying that this can cure many diseases that cannot be cured in the world today, and let me be sure to keep them properly. Mr. Tong said, "After I got the Taigong Pulse Formula, I couldn't wait to read it, and the records in it were really all-encompassing, and there were many problems in the world today, and all of them were described and solved in great detail." ”
I asked, "What did you mean when you said that you had encountered something incomprehensible?"
Mr. Tong was still immersed in the joy of learning at this time, and when I asked him, he said: "These two scales have not been bothered to look at some time ago, but yesterday they suddenly seemed to be alive, tossing and flying, making bursts of sound. It lasted less than a minute, and then it fell back into place, without movement. ”
Zang Butian suddenly seemed to think of something, and hurriedly asked, "Yesterday, but at the end of the day, between half past ten and eleven o'clock?"
