Chapter 200: The Secrets of Traditional Chinese Medicine

The next day, Fang Chen went to He Guozhi's house, which was actually the teacher's apartment behind the University of Chinese Medicine.

He Guozhi wears many hats, honorary president, first-class professor, senior expert of medical expert group, and dean of a certain research institute.

And in Dragon City, he also has a lot of real estate, and the reason why Fang Chen came here today is mainly to go through the enrollment procedures by the way.

"Xiaozheng is here, what kind of fruit do you bring, we don't want to do this in the future, come, drink a cup of tea with me, we didn't have a good chat yesterday, today I have a little time, nagging!"

Putting down the fruit basket, Fang Chen smiled and sat down with He Guozhi.

He Guozhi made kung fu tea while chatting a few words, and then opened the topic.

"Xiaozheng, when I heard what you said before I entered the door yesterday, I was actually quite emotional!"

"Grandpa He, the kid is talking nonsense, don't take it to heart." Fang Chen smiled embarrassedly, no matter what, the old man still needs to be respected, as long as it is not those who rely on the old and sell the old, Fang Chen is very respectful.

"No, after I came back last night, my mind was a mess, and I thought about it for a long time, although what you said was not comprehensive, and it was only the tip of the iceberg, but a young Chinese medicine doctor of your age had such an idea, which has surprised me very much." He Guozhi didn't care and smiled.

"There are so many TCM students in our school, and there are seven of my apprentices, but there are some things that they dare not say, or they have not considered what TCM is like this. Maybe in their hearts, they only think about how to study, how to do internships, how to climb up in the future, and sit in my current position. ”

Fang Chen didn't say anything, he listened carefully, He Lao's words are right, in fact, it is not only traditional Chinese medicine, any industry, rising, declining, as long as it is a little useful to the society, someone learns, and the vast majority of students are learning with their thoughts on the future.

Of course, looking forward to the future is a good thing, but human beings, for what is the unification of the world? Standing at the top of the pyramid? One of them is that human beings think about the past, learn from the past, and then make the future easier!

Ignoring Fang Chen's thoughts, He Guozhi continued.

"You are a descendant of the Sun family, the descendant of the Jingfang faction, you should also know the Tao, there are very few people who study the Jingfang school in modern times, and there are even fewer masters, and most of the Chinese medicine departments in colleges and universities in China are learning from the Shi Fang."

Fang Chen nodded, he knew this very well.

"If you want to talk about history, it's far away, speaking of which, Chinese medicine is fundamentally homologous, but there is a difference between the entry point of the diagnosis and the time of medicine...... Speaking of which, your Sun family's health preservation is the same as ours. ”

Fang Chen smiled, and then nodded, the Sun family's lineage is considered to be the Jing Fang School, but it is a bit of a time, it belongs to the dual cultivation of the Jing and the time, and it can be regarded as advancing with the times in ancient times.

However, what the time said is 'light, smart, skillful, and gentle', and it is difficult to say that it is not to seek merit, but to seek no fault.

In fact, I can't say which faction is good here, I can only say that depending on who and what disease is cured, sometimes it is better, and sometimes it is better.

It's just that He Guozhi's words behind him made Fang Chen frightened and inexplicable, but at the same time, he began to sincerely admire this old man, not everyone dares to face up to his own shortcomings, if it is his own shortcomings, it is fine, but he is facing the shortcomings of his own faction.

"The inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine began to turn around with Ye Tianshi and Wu Jutong in the Qing Dynasty, and the book "Differentiation of Warm Diseases" appeared, which essentially abandoned the most fundamental theoretical basis of traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine in our country has been led astray to a large extent and has since begun to decline. In the following ten years, Chinese medicine was even worse, and many folk masters of the scriptures were criticized and killed, and the folk inheritance of the scriptures was almost cut off. ”

These things don't know the Dao, he only knows some of the most basic things, the most superficial things.

Of course, the fact that the ancient recipes and some good traditions have not been handed down is also a reason for the decline of traditional Chinese medicine, but now it seems that it is not the most fundamental reason.

He Guozhi sighed softly: "When I was young, I was halfway through, I didn't know what the Jing Fang School and the Shi Fang School were, I changed careers, and after studying for many years, I understood some things, but society is like this, I can't support it alone, I can't change it...... Let's talk about modern Chinese medicine, the Chinese medicine that comes out of the current Chinese medicine college is all different, there are too many things to learn, too many things to learn, learn Chinese medicine, learn Western medicine, and learn the textbooks of the warm disease school compiled later......"

“…… The general trend is difficult to change, not to mention that in today's society, the masters of the Jingfang School are almost extinct, except for your master, maybe if he is born, he can change some of the status quo, but it's a pity...... He took the mountain. ”

Fang Chen's face was unnatural for a while...... How can he have a master, he was a grandfather in his previous life, although he was a master of the Jingfang faction, but he was definitely not a master, otherwise his grandfather would not be able to be a little lang in a small county.

He Guozhi shook his head again: "And even if your master really goes out of the mountain, the general environment is very difficult to change, this requires a generation to change in order to be able to achieve something, not to mention the current hospital...... In the past, when I was young, many of the people in the hospital were Jing Fang, and although I was not able to do so, each pair of medicines was less than ten flavors, which I remember very clearly. ”

“…… But after so many years, the master of the Jingfang faction has gone, and the one who has changed careers has changed careers, and the ones left behind have become four dislikes, a pair of traditional Chinese medicine with more than 20 flavors, or even more than 30 flavors, the price has gone up, and the effect has come down, which is exactly what the hospital wants to see, once upon a time, I also prescribed medicine like this, because if I don't prescribe it like this, I can't even afford to eat, and the hospital will sweep me out! ”

Speaking of this, He Guozhi smiled with a hint of exhaustion, perhaps self-reflection and self-analysis really require a lot of determination.

Otherwise, He Guozhi, as a master of the Shi Fang faction, is now relatively large, and he has no reason to belittle his Shi Fang faction at all.

But now he still does it, because he knows too well, he knows too well, and he understands too well, he knows the root cause of the decline of Chinese medicine, but he has no power to return to heaven.

Fang Chen could see that He Guozhi was very uncomfortable, maybe when he dreamed back at midnight occasionally, he would cry, the tears of an old man, the rise and fall of Chinese medicine for thousands of years.

Whether Chinese medicine is good or not, this is understandable, but what is the reason for the decline so far? Maybe it was caused by history, but later human factors made Chinese medicine completely fall, and it was difficult to restore the glory of a thousand years ago.

Fang Chen couldn't help but feel a little sad at this time, the rise and fall of Chinese medicine may only be understood by those who study Chinese medicine, and outsiders may just look at the excitement.
