Chapter 178: All-round Talent Meng Yi
Cupping!
It was first recorded in the "Fifty-two Prescriptions", which was written in the Western Han Dynasty, while there is no relevant detail in the Qin Dynasty.
"Cupping?!"
is another unintelligible term, and every time Meng Yi speaks, he almost subverts Ying Zheng's perception of life.
One unfamiliar term after another stood out from his mouth, causing everyone to be puzzled.
Seeing that the first emperor was suspicious, Meng Yi explained: "The so-called cupping is to use the pot as a tool to use the fire method to generate negative pressure, so that it is adsorbed on the surface of the body, causing local blood stasis, so as to achieve the therapy of activating the meridians and meridians, and activating qi and blood. ”
Well, Meng Yi knew that they still couldn't understand his explanation, and only practice was the best teacher.
"Your Majesty, wait a minute, the minister will take my tools."
Meng Yi left for a moment, and then came here with his tools, and when the First Emperor saw it, he said, "What kind of thing do I think, isn't this a bamboo pot?" ”
What Meng Yi is holding in his hand is a jar made of bamboo, which is of different sizes and targets different parts of the human body.
Because the edges of the bamboo cans are relatively sharp, it is easy to scratch the skin and prick blood during cupping, so these bamboo cans of Meng Yi have undergone special treatment and have avoided the shortcomings after polishing.
"Come on, close all the doors in the lobby, this young master will diagnose His Majesty." Meng Yi ordered all the people in the hall to leave.
To diagnose the Son of Heaven, how can you see it if you want to?
However, the First Emperor ordered a few people who accompanied him to stay behind to supervise him, so that this kid would not come to the house.
After the lobby door was closed, Meng Yi said, "Your Majesty, please take off your shirt now, Wechen is going to give you cupping." ”
"Meng Yi, you won't harm me, right?" The First Emperor was somewhat skeptical of Meng Yi's words.
After all, even the imperial doctor has not diagnosed the root of the disease, and when he comes to Meng Yi's mansion, he must be crazy to ask Meng Yi, he is not a doctor, where does he know so much.
But how do they know that this cupping can relax the muscles and activate the nerves, and it is the only way to relax the body, even a layman can easily grasp it.
"Your Majesty, the minister guarantees with his head, as long as this cupping does not puncture the skin and bleed out, it will not be dangerous." Meng Yi said.
Hearing him say this, the First Emperor would still feel a little worried.
But at this point, it's useless to worry.
"Come on!" The First Emperor's heart was crossed, the two of them were suffering together, Meng Yi wanted to harm himself, he didn't start early, how could he use this to harm himself?
The courtier beside him was a little uneasy, and before he could speak, he was stopped by the First Emperor, and he said, "Don't worry, I believe in you Meng Yi." ”
Subsequently, Meng Yi determined the location of the First Emperor's back pain and asked him to lie flat.
After all the bamboo cans were sterilized, Meng Yi officially began his performance.
I saw that he lit a small fireball, put the fireball in the bamboo jar and burned it for a while, and immediately put the bamboo jar on the back of the First Emperor.
Because the flame burns the air inside the bamboo pot, the air pressure between the bamboo pot and the outside air is unbalanced, so as to achieve the effect of cupping.
Repeating the above things, Meng Yi took five fire pots in a row and put them on the back of the First Emperor.
After completion, the First Emperor was lying flat on the bed, and his back also wanted to grow like a bamboo tube, which was really funny.
"Your Majesty, how do you feel?"
The First Emperor said, "My back felt as if I had been pulled, it didn't hurt much, and there was nothing unusual. ”
The bamboo jar on the body will be adsorbed on the surface of the skin and gather the blood around the body, so as to achieve the effect of blood circulation and stasis.
"Your Majesty's back is caused by hard work, which causes blood congestion in the body to gather, and the blood does not flow smoothly, so it will feel pain, as long as you rest more, you can recover." Meng Yi said.
"Really?!"
The First Emperor said with suspicion, even the imperial doctor has not diagnosed it, Meng Yi will know?!
Meng Yi is from the countryside, and his parents make a living from farming, and it is common for rural people to have backache, so they often use cupping to relieve pain.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you will take off the bamboo jar later, and you will know immediately if the pain is reduced." Meng Yi said.
Since he said so, the First Emperor did not say more.
About the time to touch a cup of tea, Meng Yi said: "When the time comes, the minister will take it down for His Majesty." ”
After a short time, after Meng Yi slowly took off the first bamboo jar, a round blood clot was impressively imprinted on the sorrow of the First Emperor, and the blood clot was very conspicuous in purple-red.
Seeing this, Zhang Han was immediately furious: "Meng Yi, what did you do to Your Majesty?!" ”
He grabbed Meng Yi's arm, and Meng Yi said, "General Zhang, what's the hurry, I haven't taken it all off yet?" Even if you are guilty, your majesty will have to decide. ”
"Zhang Han, what's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, it's terrible that blood clots appear on your back."
"Blood clots?! Meng Yi: What the hell is going on? The First Emperor asked angrily.
Meng Yi explained unhurriedly: "These blood clots are bruises in His Majesty's body, which is really normal, and Your Majesty is not more than panicked. ”
"Really?"
"Of course it's true."
Then, after Meng Yi took off all the other bamboo cans, he said, "Your Majesty, it's already ready, you can stand up and take a walk?!" ”
After the First Emperor stood up suspiciously, after briefly moving a few times, he really felt a sense of comfort.
And the pain is much less.
"Your Majesty, how do you feel?" Zhang Han asked.
The others all cast concerned eyes, thinking that putting the bamboo pot on their back would relieve the pain?! They said they didn't believe it, but it turned out to be ......
"My back really doesn't hurt anymore." The First Emperor said in amazement.
"What!!"
The others suddenly showed surprised expressions, this ...... How can it be?!
The First Emperor made a few simple movements, only to feel a sense of rejuvenating comfort all over his body.
I didn't expect that even the imperial doctor could do something that Meng Yi could do, this ...... It's incredible, too.
"Meng Yi, what the hell is going on? Just a few small bamboo pots can have this curative effect, which is really amazing. The First Emperor said.
"Fang Caichen has already said that His Majesty overworked and caused the qi and blood in his body to be unsmooth, and the minister only gave you the blood, which is actually nothing." Meng Yi said humbly.
"There are many ways to dredge qi and blood, and you will see this method for the first time." The First Emperor said.
"In fact, this method is not the first of ministers, it is the ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the First Emperor preemptively said: "It's an immortal dream again?" ”
"Uh......, you got it?"
"You're like this every time, and I'm not a fool, can I not know?" The First Emperor said.
"Hey, hey."
Meng Yi smiled awkwardly, it seems that he will have to find other excuses in the future, otherwise, even the First Emperor will not believe him.
"Your cupping method is good, safe, simple, easy to use and quick effect, and you can pull a cup at any time when I have back pain in the future." The First Emperor said.
"Your Majesty, although this cupping method is effective, it can relieve the pain for a while, it is a symptom but not a cure, you yourself also need to regulate your body, only the combination of inside and outside can play a role." Meng Yi said.
"That's true, I know." The First Emperor said, "Also, these bamboo pots of yours are good, can you give them to me?" ”
"What's the problem then, if Your Majesty wants it, just take it." Meng Yi said boldly.
After finishing speaking, Meng Yi shouted towards the door: "Little cheap, prepare two sets of bamboo cans for Your Majesty and several adults." ”
These things were originally prepared for the people who cultivated the mountains and forests, because they would inevitably suffer from physical pain after working for a long time.
As for these bamboo cans, they are not intended to be sold, after all, this thing is simple and cheap, and even if it is sold, it will soon be imitated by people, and it will not make money.
Hao Jian went to the warehouse to prepare ten sets of bamboo pots for the First Emperor and five sets of bamboo pots for the accompanying ministers.
Before leaving, the First Emperor was so relieved that he was comfortable, and he instructed: "Oh yes, the 'paper' you mentioned before should be made quickly." ”
"Whoa."
……
After sending the First Emperor away, Meng Yi returned to the study, and the top priority at the moment was to plant hybrid rice, once the planting was successful, hundreds of thousands of acres of rice would be harvested.
In order to speed up the progress, Meng Yi ran back and forth to various mountains when he had nothing to do, and it didn't take long for his whole person to get tanned.
Everything went according to plan, and after the water was brought into the mountain by a waterwheel, the rice planting began. Mobilizing everyone to plant rice at the same time is absolutely unprecedented in scale.
It took almost seven days to complete hundreds of thousands of acres of rice seedlings, and the next thing was to wait for the harvest to be harvested in a few months.
At the same time, Quyuan plough was sold in Xianyang, making many people's shops make a lot of money.
Because it is the time of planting, the quyuan plough will be sold, and now the planting has entered the end, so the heat has decreased with time.
In this regard, Meng Yi had long expected that everything was under his control.
Now it is the height of summer, there are many mosquitoes, and at night, after falling asleep, I always hear the sound of mosquitoes "buzzing".
At this time, it is the most torturous, but there is no way to help mosquitoes.
Meng Yi was deeply affected by it, and was woken up from his dream by mosquitoes many times, and after he slammed it out of bed, he said: "It's grandma, damn mosquitoes, don't let Young Master Ben catch you, otherwise I will pinch you to death." ”
Meng Yi scolded, this mosquito is really annoying, Meng Yi said again: "It would be nice if there were mosquito coils." ”
It was such a sentence that made Meng Yi smell business opportunities, there was no mosquito repellent in ancient times, and he could only feed mosquitoes at night.
If it can be made into mosquito coils, it will inevitably sell well.
Thinking of this, Meng Yi was ready to make "mosquito coils", and he had already thought about finding a spokesperson for mosquito coils.
If you want to promote mosquito coils, how can you lack a spokesperson?!
As for the candidate for the spokesperson, he has already chosen, and the next step is to start making mosquito coils, first of all, raw materials.
At the same time, Meng Yi's paper mill is also under construction.
