Section 3 The Story of Herbal Medicine

On Yao Mountain, Yao Li said to Xiao Yaoqin while walking: "In fact, medicinal materials are a very important part of medical skills, you know what disease you are suffering from, but you also have to know what medicine to use to treat this disease, so in ancient times, there were gods who tasted all the herbs in the world to distinguish and distinguish the effects of various herbs, and left a book of "Shennong's Materia Medica" for future generations to treat diseases and save people for later generations to make great contributions, and later generations also called that god Shennong to commemorate his kindness to mankind.

"It turns out that there are really gods in the world, so powerful, so where are they, I really want to meet them." Xiao Yaoqin's face immediately glowed with hope, and she hurriedly asked, "Dad, tell me about the gods." ā€

Yao Li smiled helplessly: "Dad doesn't know much, but I heard that the gods live in the Kunlun Wonderland in Kunlun Mountain, they live forever, play the piano and play music, are at ease, and often go out to help mankind, and many myths and legends have been handed down because of this." It is also rumored that there are gods in our Yao Mountain who play the qin here, and the valley is influenced by the spirit of the gods and becomes like a fairyland. ā€

"Really, it turns out that there are gods in this mountain, Dad, take me to visit the gods, I want to know what the gods look like."

"Dad is just a mortal, how can he see gods, besides, this is just a legend left by his ancestors."

"In this way, I'm also a mortal, so I can't see it, I wanted to see how the gods look different from us." Xiao Yaoqin sighed in disappointment.

Looking at his son's lost appearance, Yao Li said again: "In fact, mortals may not be able to see the gods, it all depends on chance, maybe you will meet the gods in this mountain by chance in the future." ā€

Xiao Yaoqin put away her disappointed look a little and said, "That's too, if I can't meet them, I'll go to Kunlun Wonderland to find them when I grow up, hehe." ā€

Yao Ligang wanted to say that the Kunlun Immortal Realm is not something that ordinary people can enter, and only immortals who have achieved cultivation can enter this cave to find out, but then stopped. He said: "Yes, when you grow up in the future, you will go to see how beautiful Kunlun Wonderland is for your father." ā€

"No, when I grow up, I want to take my dad to see it." Looking at his son's determined eyes, Yaoli touched Xiao Yaoqin's head with satisfaction.

Then he changed the topic and said: "We can't see the gods for the time being, but you have to keep in mind the medical skills from an early age, and in the future, you can have a better chance of seeing the gods by being a good person who heals the sick and saves people." ā€

Blinking those big eyes that were full of energy, Xiao Yaoqin immediately agreed obediently: "Well, then Dad, tell me the story of the herb again." ā€

"Okay, I'll start by telling you a little bit about herbs." Yao Li stroked his sideburns, found a clean place and sat down and said: "The characteristics of various herbs are generally divided into four natures and five flavors, that is, cold, hot, warm, cool, sour, bitter, sweet, spicy and salty, cold medicine for fever disease, and warm medicine for cold disease, but there are also cases of cold and heat combined. Moreover, some drugs are toxic, and this should also be carefully distinguished. ā€

"It's strange why drugs can be used to treat diseases when they are poisonous."

This is the so-called method of fighting poison with poison, and it is necessary to use this method for some stubborn and vicious diseases. However, this also talks about another content of the drug, about the method of collection and processing, our descendants have reduced the toxicity of the drug through the processing and processing methods of various drugs, but retained the original efficacy, which is called system preservation in the medical scriptures. ā€œ

"In addition, the identification of various drugs, the time and place of collection, and the location of the drug are also extremely important. First of all, you must recognize what each drug looks like, in what season and where you can pick the medicine, and secondly, the drug parts are different, some are rooted in the medicine, some are in the stem and leaf, and some are in the bud seeds, you need to be familiar with all kinds of drug knowledge to be handy. ā€

"Wow, it turns out that there are so many things to learn about medicinal herbs alone, and now my head is big." Xiao Yaoqin hurriedly shook her head and said with a sigh.

Yao Li joked that this is just basic knowledge, and there are more in-depth contents, so you need to read the book slowly and learn it slowly, just say that each drug is paired into a prescription, and different drug compositions will exert different effects and treat different diseases, which requires you to be familiar with and use medicinal materials flexibly.

There are also certain contraindications for its drug compatibility, which is called eighteen anti-nineteen fears in the medical scriptures. If you aspire to be a doctor who treats diseases and saves people, you must always learn with an open mind and pay a lot of effort.

After listening to so much at once, Xiao Yaoqin was also a little ignorant at the moment, just nodding her head blindly.

Realizing that he was too anxious, Yao Li relieved his breath and said, "You are still young, and there is still a lot of time to study, as long as you have the heart to study, Dad will help you, don't worry." On this Yao Mountain, because of the rich aura, there are many rare medicinal materials, and some of them are even cultivated into essence, which is extremely difficult to pick, and you must be extremely cautious when you come here to collect medicines. As he spoke, he looked into the depths of the valley, and at this time the mist of the valley was cast into a brilliant and colorful glow by the setting sun.

"The sun is about to go down, we must hurry up to the cinnamon tree on the cliff of the valley to pick some cinnamon branches and go back, otherwise it will be difficult to walk on the mountain road when the night is dark."

When he walked to a bush, Yaoli suddenly stopped on a slope covered with carrot-like leaves, watched for a moment, and then said to me meaningfully: "Yaoqin, do you see the radish leaves on the hillside over there, you go and pluck a radish to try." ā€

"It's not that you have to rush to pick cinnamon branches, why do you have to spend time picking radishes, it's not that we don't have radishes at home, and radishes are not delicious." Although Xiao Yaoqin chattered, she still ran over and grabbed the radish leaf, and pulled it hard, but unfortunately she didn't pull it out, it was strange that she used to help pull radishes at home, why is this radish so strong, is it a fat radish that can't be done, and then put her little foot on the slope and pulled it hard, and the fat radish was finally pulled out, but suddenly her face changed, and she immediately covered her ears.

It turned out that this fat radish really had a grin with teeth, and at this time, because it was pulled out of the bed, it was full of fear and anger, and it retaliated with a burst of sharp and piercing sounds, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Immediately, the fat radish immediately used its flexible roots like hands and feet to throw the mud at Yaoqin's body, where had a five- or six-year-old child seen such a scene, he was frightened on the spot, and when he let go of his hand, he saw that the fat radish rolled to the ground with his dexterity, and then screamed provocatively, and ran back to the original dirt pit. Xiao Yaoqin, who was left with a pale face and a muddy face, was shocked and speechless.
