After listening to what Xu Daozhi said in the past two days, Li Jiajun and the others said that my little friends and I were stunned. Then I thought about whether I had been deceived. Whatever you want, He Haiquan said: "Xiaodao, aren't you deceived?" Xu Daozhi shook his head and said: "No, my master didn't ask me for money, but said that he would be responsible for the materials I needed for my study, and I also checked on the Internet that he is indeed a famous old Chinese medicine doctor." Seeing Xu Daozhi so resolute, it's not good to understand that it is not good to say more. So he said: "That little way, if you think there is a problem, you must tell us about it." Xu Daozhi nodded and said, "It just so happens that there are some things that need your help right now, hehe!" ”

Hearing Xu Daozhi laugh like this, Li Jiajun couldn't help but shake and said, "Speak well, don't laugh like that." Xu Daozhi straightened his color and said: "After I learned from my master, I will choose not to participate in the classes in school, so I will ask my brothers to help cover it up when the time comes." Li Jiajun and the three looked at each other, and finally agreed.

On Sunday, Xu Daozhi hurried out of school without eating after the morning class, and bought two meat buns to eat when he ran past a steamed bun shop on the way, which was considered lunch. When he arrived at the medical hall, Lu Wende was already waiting for him, and there was an extra whiteboard in the store. There is a chair opposite the whiteboard.

Seeing Xu Daozhi entering the medical hall and panting, Lu Wende smiled and said, "You don't have to run so quickly in the future." There are a lot of cars on the road, so pay attention to safety. As he spoke, Lu Wende closed the door of the infirmary and hung up a sign that was closed, so that no one would come to see the doctor and the lecture would be disturbed. The lights were on in the hospital so they didn't dim. After Xu Daozhi breathed evenly. Lu Wende said, "Okay. I've got that new chair for you, sit down, and we'll start our lecture today. ”

Xu Daozhi sat down as he said and turned on the recording function of his mobile phone. He looked at Lu Wende with some curiosity and asked, "Master, what are you teaching today?" Lu Wende said: "Let's learn acupuncture first" After a pause, he continued: "I know you will be curious why you want to talk about acupuncture first, and I will explain it to you." Hearing Lu Wende say this, Xu Daozhi swallowed the question he just wanted to ask back into his stomach.

Lu Wende continued: "The use of acupuncture and moxibustion is more than 1,000 years earlier than that of traditional Chinese medicine, and you should know that most of the acupuncture and moxibustion are operated on acupuncture points. There are a total of 409 acupuncture points on the human body, and in addition to the 48 extra-meridian Qixue, there are 361 acupuncture points on the 12 meridians and the eight veins of the Qi Jing. The Twelve Orthodox Sutras themselves have a direct relationship with the internal organs, and the direction of the meridians is also very important, which is related to the dialectic and treatment methods that follow. Learning acupuncture well and moxibustion will lay a good foundation for future learning, and acupuncture and moxibustion are also a very important treatment method independent of traditional Chinese medicine. Now you understand why you want to learn acupuncture and moxibustion first. Xu Daozhi nodded after hearing this. For the first time, he felt that Master was so important to his path of Chinese medicine. I listened more attentively to Lu Wende's lectures.

Lu Wende naturally didn't know Xu Daozhi's mental activities, and continued to preach: "Nowadays, many people call acupuncture and moxibustion together, and sometimes they will use it together, which is very wrong, acupuncture and moxibustion are two different operations, and they must not be performed together." In ancient times, there was such a song that said this problem: acupuncture without moxibustion and moxibustion without acupuncture, and the acupuncture sutra is often admonished for this. Quack acupuncture and moxibustion are administered at the same time, and patients are burned in vain. In order to attract patients, some doctors have to use a fancy way to show their strength, putting moxa wool on one end of the needle, which will only make the patient more painful, and let those who know know that he is a quack doctor at a glance. Now the reputation of Chinese medicine has been ruined by such people. A needle is a needle, and moxibustion is moxibustion. You must remember what I said today, and you must not become the quack doctor I am talking about. After hearing this, Xu Daozhi nodded and said, "Well, Master, I remember." ”

After getting Xu Daozhi's reply, Lu Wende nodded and said, "I'll talk about it now, under what circumstances you can't use the needle method, and the needle will have a problem when the time comes." First of all, after the patient has lost a lot of blood, or after a long illness, such a patient is very weak, and he cannot get the needle at this time. Secondly, after exercising, sweating, and lack of physical strength, you can't get the needle, and finally you can't get the needle after having sex, or after drinking. Remember? After hearing this, Xu Daozhi silently recited it a few times, nodded and said, "Master, I remember." But what is sex? After hearing this question, Lu Wende said, "It's the things you talked about in your physiology and hygiene class in high school. Xu Daozhi understood in an instant, and his face turned red for a while. Seeing Xu Daozhi's expression, Lu Wende was happy and said, "Don't be shy, as a doctor, you will encounter many such things in the future, so you should look at this matter with a normal heart." Xu Daozhi's face turned even redder after hearing this. Hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Master, if the patient's qi and blood are very weak, what should I do if he doesn't drink Chinese medicine?" ”

Lu Wende nodded and said, "I was about to talk about this." If this is the case for you, then use moxibustion. When the acupuncture power is insufficient, we use moxibustion. Of course, moxibustion also has some contraindications. The word moxibustion is long on the top and fire on the bottom, and you will know what it means when you look at it. Therefore, moxibustion is generally not used when the heat is heated. For example, fever. There is also no moxibustion when sweating, if the patient has hemorrhoids, then no matter where you can't moxibustion, this is a state of no moxibustion, and there are some places where you can't moxibustion, the palms can't moxibustion, you can't moxibustion, you can't moxibustion, you can't moxibustion, you can't moxibustion your eyes and pubic area. Today I will focus on this moxibustion. Xu Daozhi nodded expectantly.

Lu Wende walked to the medicine cabinet, took out a porcelain jar from the bottom cabinet, and took out a handful of yellow-colored medicine from it and put it on a piece of paper. Picked it up and walked to Xu Daozhi and said, "Moxibustion, we need to use moxa." This is moxa wool on paper, moxa wool has the characteristics of mild fire when burning, its warm heat can penetrate deep into the skin and muscles, and the quality of moxa wool can directly affect the effect of moxibustion. Moxa wool with high quality, no impurities, and dry and stored for a long time will have greater effect and better efficacy, and vice versa. Not only that, the inferior moxa wool is irritable when burning, which is easy to make the patient have a burning sensation and is unbearable. Shouting impurities more impurities moxa, when burning moxa often has the disadvantage of bursting, even more, according to the ancient books will hurt the pulse so a moxa wool is best to make their own, although some on the market are sold, but the quality is uneven. I'll show you how to make mugwort. ”

As he spoke, he put the moxa wool in his hand on the consultation table, and then took a pen and wrote the word Qi Ai on the whiteboard. Then he said: "There are two kinds of mugwort leaves, one is produced in Jiangbei, the leaves are wide and thick, the fluff is more, the velvet is harder and called Qi Ai, and the other is called wild wormwood, produced in the south of the Yangtze River, and the mugwort wool made is inferior cashmere, so we choose Qi Ai to make mugwort." The best time to harvest wormwood is at this time, in May. Remove the collected wormwood, go to the stem and leave only the wormwood leaves, and then put the wormwood leaves in a sunny place to be exposed to the sun many times until dry, and after drying, it is necessary to pick and remove impurities again, mainly some small stones or something. Then put the mugwort leaves in a stone mortar and pound them with a wooden stick, and the first time it was about 1,500 times. Then it is necessary to sort again, and there are some stalks on the leaves that cannot be smashed, so they must be picked out and probed and then put into the stone mortar and pounded with a wooden stick, this time it will be pounded 3,000 times. This is where the velvet appears. Then the third sorting is carried out. Then put the fleece after three sortings into a coarse sieve to sieve the fine powder, and then carry out the last sorting, so that the moxa wool can be used. Now a lot of moxa wool bought on the market is cheap, but it is indeed processed by a crusher, and there are many impurities such as leaf stems, stones and the like that will be crushed into it. Therefore, it is better to use moxa wool or make it yourself, and you are responsible for yourself and the patient, oh! Another point to note is that the newly made moxa wool contains more volatile oil, and the fire power is too strong when moxibustion is applied, so it is better to choose the old moxa wool, so the made moxa wool should be stored for a period of time before it can be used, generally this time is about three years, and the moxa wool is relatively easy to absorb water, so it will be easy to get damp and mildew, or be moth-eaten, so it should be kept sealed and dry when stored. When the weather is fine, take it out to dry it often. Okay, take a break. ”
