Chapter 11 The Family of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Wei Xiaodong picked up the book, the paper of the book was a little yellow, which showed that there were many years. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This is not a printed book, it is a manuscript. On the cover of the book is written four words: "Notes on Medical Dao".
Wei Xiaodong's father saw him pick up the book, so he said: "This is what your master gave me, he said that it was left to him by his grandfather, and our family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine." Do you know why your grandfather doesn't like your grandfather?"
"My grandfather didn't study Chinese medicine, he studied Western medicine, did he?" Wei Xiaodong said.
"Yes, your lord originally put his hopes on me, but I couldn't study medicine, and his old man can be said to have left with regrets. By the way, your lord gave me some strange Chinese medicine and asked me to keep it, saying that it might be useful in the future. With that, his father took out a couple of boxes.
The boxes are very beautiful and give off a faint fragrance. "I'll give you all this!" Wei Xiaodong's father gave Wei Xiaodong those boxes and some books.
Wei Xiaodong solemnly took the boxes and medical books back to his room.
Wei Xiaodong was a little glad in his heart, fortunately he went to high school, otherwise, he might not be able to understand these. He probably flipped through the medical notebook, and the explanations on it were all in classical Chinese. If the language level is not high, you can't understand it at all, and if you can't understand it, how can you understand the meaning?
Wei Xiaodong put the boxes his father gave him in a row, with small locks on them. Just now his father gave him the keys. Wei Xiaodong opened them one by one. It's a total of four boxes. Wei Xiaodong opened each box.
Wei Xiaodong looked at the Chinese medicinal materials in it the same, and the result was certain, he didn't know the same, but he remembered the appearance of each medicinal material.
Wei Xiaodong remembered an allusion. It is said that the invention of gunpowder is a by-product of Taoist alchemy, and as for the relationship between Chinese medicine and Taoism, few people seem to say anything.
Wei Xiaodong has an idea, he always feels that the relationship between Taoism and Chinese medicine is even more inseparable. Taoist alchemy is to mix various medicinal materials and then become a pill, in Wei Xiaodong's view, it is a pill. If Wei Xiaodong said this, it is estimated that many old Chinese medicine doctors will come back to him to work hard.
However, Wei Xiaodong always firmly believes that this is correct, and now Wei Xiaodong is soft-spoken, but Wei Xiaodong firmly believes that one day he will be able to stand on the stage and explain this point of view to those old experts, so that people can not forget their ancestors.
Wei Xiaodong opened the medical notes again. Wei Xiaodong likes to read notes, notes are better than books. He turned over page by page, talking about pharmacology in the front, and talking about the names, pharmacology, and sketches of many uncommon medicinal materials in the middle.
Suddenly, a picture attracted him, he looked at the medicinal materials in the box, and then at the sketch, it was really the same, and he knew what this medicine was called. In the end, he found that these four medicines were the ones he was missing, namely safflower, cloud beads, chicken blood vine, and hyssop.
Wei Xiaodong felt that this was really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. Wei Xiaodong thinks this is too coincidental! However, everything in this world is not written without coincidence.
Wei Xiaodong took a closer look at the books on traditional Chinese medicine that his father had brought over, especially the location of the acupuncture points he wanted to open, the dantian, and the second pulse of Ren Du. There is also the fact that when he cultivated the first layer of the Xuanling Sutra, he couldn't run it successfully, was it because of the lack of these medicinal materials?
The author of "Xuanling Canon" called these heavenly and earthly treasures, and Wei Xiaodong seemed to see that these were medicinal materials, no matter what! It seems that in the future, dealing with these medicinal materials will be indispensable. Be sure to check them all out before you leave home for a foreign country.
Wei Xiaodong was not in a hurry to continue cultivating the Xuanling Technique this time, he put this matter down first, and instead concentrated on reading the books of traditional Chinese medicine that his father gave him.
The more Wei Xiaodong looked at it, the more he felt that the relationship between Chinese medicine and cultivation was really too close. He felt that it was really a bit of a loss that he didn't learn Chinese medicine, but now, it's not too late to make amends, although reading these books now, I can't make myself a Chinese medicine doctor, but the benefits to my cultivation are really great.
And if you compare these two aspects with each other, you may be able to find something new.
Wei Xiaodong wants to leave his hometown this time and go to a place thousands of miles away, before he goes, he must arrange things at home, the ancients said, parents are here, not far away, although modern society is different now, but it must also be arranged.
Because I am already an adult, I will have to arrange my own life in the future. By the way, a very real problem is that you need money right now.
The last time I went to sell medicine, I earned 200 yuan, and I didn't even have enough money for the journey. Wei Xiaodong thought, "I have to find a way to make some money, and it is money from the right source." I don't want to ask my parents for money anymore. ”
Wei Xiaodong looked at the medical books on this table, took out the "Xuanling Dictionary" again, looked at it and looked at it, and suddenly had an idea, medical books, ancient prescriptions, by the way, there are ancient prescriptions on the "Xuanling Classics", maybe this ancient prescription has unexpected effects?
Wei Xiaodong found an ancient prescription in the Jishi chapter of the "Xuanling Classic", and the medicinal effect indicated was to invigorate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis. There are the names of various medicinal herbs, their respective amounts, and how to mix them.
Wei Xiaodong took this recipe to heart. I plan to go around the county tomorrow. Let's see if there's a chance to use this recipe to earn some travel expenses. Wei Xiaodong said in his heart that if his lord knew that his great-grandson actually used the ancient prescription of traditional Chinese medicine to make money, he should be pleased!
Wei Xiaodong suddenly wanted to know what his master's specialty was. There are many types of Chinese medicine. There are many human diseases, and it is impossible for each doctor to cure all diseases, and there will definitely be some emphasis.
Wei Xiaodong went out to find his father. Father will go out on errands.
Wei Xiaodong picked up the medical book that his father gave him and read it, under the thick medical book, there was a very thin booklet, which was packed with thread, Wei Xiaodong flipped through it, and every page on it recorded a prescription. The indications, the name of the herb, the amount of the herb, the method of decoction, and the heat are very detailed.
Because there are not many prescriptions, there are probably dozens of prescriptions, and after reading them, Wei Xiaodong found that these prescriptions are all for the treatment of gynecological diseases, such as irregular menstruation, etc., and each page is printed with a chapter, 'Shouyi'. What does this mean?
At this time, Wei Xiaodong heard the sound of someone opening the door, he hurriedly ran out, and saw that his father was back.
"Xiaodong, what are you doing here?" his father asked.
"It's nothing, I just want to talk to you. ”
"Tell me, what do you want to know?"
"My lord is a Chinese medicine practitioner, what does he focus on? What kind of diseases does he have a unique view of?" Wei Xiaodong asked.
"Your lord focuses on gynecology of Chinese medicine. He has a lot of prescriptions. By the way, I've got it all for you today!"
"Dad, what do you mean by Shouichi? I look at those recipes, and there are stamps of these two words on every page. ”
"That's your master's handwriting. At that time, your grandfather was the director of a provincial hospital of traditional Chinese medicine, and his medical skills were very clever, but later, your grandmother didn't know what to think, so you let your grandfather and your grandfather come back to be farmers, otherwise, our family would not be so poor. ”
"Dad, why is that? I don't know! Nobody will ever know, you just have to do your own thing. The past is gone. ”
Wei Xiaodong knew the origin of his family's traditional Chinese medicine, and he was also very proud in his heart, although he regretted it later, but there was no way to avoid it. If no one learns, of course it will decline!
Wei Xiaodong now has the "Xuanling Canon", and he feels that he will definitely be able to carry forward the master's traditional Chinese medicine prescription in the future.
The next day, Wei Xiaodong got up early and went out after eating. He went to Daniel Zhang and asked him to go to the county seat with him.
Daniel Zhang took a few days off work for his mother's illness, because the recipe Wei Xiaodong told him had stopped hurting his mother's head after using it a few times. Daniel Zhang's mother was also very enthusiastic about Wei Xiaodong, and Daniel Zhang went to the county seat with Wei Xiaodong without saying anything.
"What are you going to do in the county seat today? Daniel Zhang asked.
"Do you know where there is a Chinese medicine pharmacy? Especially a Chinese medicine pharmacy that has a good business. Wei Xiaodong asked.
By the way, I know that there is one that is on Renmin Road, and the business is very good. By the way, it would be nice if you studied Chinese medicine. Your master is a famous Chinese medicine doctor!" Daniel Zhang said.
"How do you know my master?" asked Wei Xiaodong.
"I listened to my mom. Your lord specializes in the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine and gynecology, and it can be said that the medicine is to get rid of the disease, but he only prescribes prescriptions and does not sell medicines, so there is no charge, and the patient's illness is cured, and eggs are sent to him. My mom said that your grandfather couldn't eat all the eggs at that time. ”
"I don't have any impressions!" Wei Xiaodong said.
"Maybe you're too young! My mother said that if your lord had collected money at that time, your family would have been a rich man within a hundred miles. There are so many people coming to see the doctor. Who do you say can not get sick?" Daniel Zhang said.
Wei Xiaodong said: "You know more about my lord than I do!"
"By the way, do you have your master's recipes? You can also think about how to use these recipes, maybe it's a good way out!" Daniel Zhang said.
"I thought about it, too, but I didn't study medicine, I didn't have a license, and I couldn't practice medicine. ”
"That's what you said, it's a pity!"
Soon it was in the county seat. After they got out of the car, they walked in the direction of the pharmacy on Renmin Road. The pharmacy wasn't far from the station, and the two of them walked and talked, and it didn't take long to get there.
Wei Xiaodong looked up at the Chinese medicine pharmacy, it was really magnificent. Wei Xiaodong secretly vowed that one day he would open a bigger pharmacy than this.
