Chapter 70 Chinese Materia Medica
The exam is very simple, understanding and memorizing Chinese herbal medicines.
Li Renjie and Xu Taiyang got a thick book of Chinese Materia Medica, stipulating that whoever memorizes the most types of medicinal materials within an hour will win.
More than 12,800 kinds of medicinal herbs, to be memorized in an hour?
Even for professional students of traditional Chinese medicine, it is an impossible task for them to memorize Chinese herbal medicine every day.
What's more, the time that the two of them can watch is only a short hour.
As soon as Xu Zhi heard that he wanted to memorize the content of the Chinese Materia Medica, he immediately laughed: "If it's just a memory test, then my family is too good to forget, and this game is won." ”
"Really? Then I'll congratulate you first. The old man said with a smile, but he didn't take it seriously.
Taking the Chinese Materia Medica out for assessment, reading the old man is also well thought out.
In medicine, especially in Chinese medicine, understanding each herb is the most basic ability.
Which kind of medicinal material and which kind of medicinal material are compatible with each other or each other, everything is based on this foundation.
If you don't even understand the properties of medicine, you won't talk about practicing medicine to save people in the future.
Although some people may have seen the Chinese herbal medicine in advance, if they can really memorize all the herbs above, it is not a violation from the perspective of Nian Lao.
The reason why Xu Zhi is happy is entirely because Xu Taiyang has been studying Chinese materia medica in depth for nearly a year.
Of course, Xu Taiyang is not so studious, and he is completely forced.
This is also Zhao Yuhuan's idea, she knows Old Man Xu too well, so she laid the foundation for Xu Taixuan early for this day.
Just two days before Nian Yutian came back, Zhao Yuhuan also personally tested Xu Taixuan and found that a Chinese herbal medicine had been memorized by him.
After learning that Nian Lao really wanted to take Chinese Materia Medica for assessment, Zhao Yuhuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and gave Nian Shengli a smug look.
When Nian Yutian heard that it was just a simple test of memory, she was also relieved in her heart, only she knew Li Renjie's ability here.
No matter how good a person's memory is, it is like the difference between heaven and earth compared to remembering.
Time starts.
The room fell silent all of a sudden, and only the sound of flipping books was heard.
Xu Taiyun has studied for a year, so he naturally feels very sure, and the speed of turning is very fast, all the herbs that he memorizes are swept away, and those that are not familiar with him are read twice.
Li Renjie seemed to be slow and careless, supporting his head with his left hand, and turning pages by page with his right hand, without any intention of stopping.
"Hmph." Seeing this, Nian Shengli snorted disdainfully.
Xu Zhi said even more proudly: "Brother Nian, look." The doll surnamed Li didn't remember it at all, and it seems that he has already admitted defeat in advance. This game is won by my family. ”
"Brother Xu, don't be careless." Nian Shengli said with a calm face.
Although he also felt that Xu Taixuan had a better chance of winning today, Zhao Yuhuan's assessment of Li Renjie last night still made him feel uneasy.
A recruit who didn't even pass three books in the college entrance examination has no less knowledge in medicine than Professor Zhao Yuhuan?
You have to be careful.
An hour passed quickly.
Among them, Li Renjie only spent a few minutes reading a book, and the rest of the time he fell asleep on the table.
Such an attitude not only made the people who missed their family unhappy, but even Nian Yutian was very unhappy.
"Knock knock!"
Nian Yutian knocked the table to wake Li Renjie up, and gave him a vicious look.
"Even if you have a memory, you don't have to be so public, right? Hmph, if you mess me up, see how I clean you up when I go back. ”
Li Renjie gave Nian Yutian a "safe" look, and then looked at Old Man Nian.
Old man Nian has a good impression of Li Renjie, and if he is allowed to choose, he will choose Li Renjie as his grandson-in-law, but Li Renjie's attitude towards sleeping just now also made him unhappy.
"It's time to arrive, which of you two will come first?" The old man asked.
"I'll do it first." Xu Taiyang immediately got up and shouted, firstly, because he wanted to put pressure on Li Renjie, and secondly, he was afraid that he would forget what he had just remembered after a long time.
"Ephedra: pungent, slightly bitter, warm. Return to the lungs and bladder meridians. Sweating, asthma, water"
Xu Taiyang memorized it like a river, not only to say the name and shape characteristics of the medicinal materials, but also to recite the medicinal properties word for word.
Because he had laid the foundation in advance, Xu Taiyang said thousands of medicinal materials in one breath, and said the corresponding medicinal properties, including many jerky medicinal materials.
"Vesicle grass, vesicular grass"
When Xu Taiyang was blindly taking medicine from ethnic minorities, he suddenly got stuck.
In fact, bubble follicle grass is a commonly used medicine among ethnic minorities, and the reason why Xu Taiyun gets stuck is that to put it bluntly, he still doesn't have enough memory.
"Tai Hao, come on!" Xu Zhi said anxiously on the side, without the slightest calmness before.
"Brother Xu, shut up." Nian Shengli hurriedly reprimanded, what he was most afraid of at this time was that someone would disturb him.
Xu Zhi hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth, and continued to cheer for Xu Taiyang with his eyes.
Xu Taiyun hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed lightly and said, "Grandpa Nian, I'm a little jerky, can you give a hint?" ”
"Nope." The old man replied resolutely, and said, "I'll give you another ten seconds, if you can't continue, then replace Li Renjie to carry it." ”
Xu Taiyun turned his head and glanced at Li Renjie, snorted disdainfully, and said secretly: "I can't do it, he can't do it?" ”
Ten seconds later.
"Grandpa Nian, I'm sorry, I really can't remember." Xu Taiyang arched his hand and said.
"Well, if you can recite thousands of medicinal herbs in one go, you can be regarded as a leader."
The old man twisted his beard and said, he was quite satisfied with Xu Taiyun's performance, and his eyes immediately fell on Li Renjie,
"Do you want to carry the vesicle down the back, or do you want to start from scratch?"
"Then I put it on my back." Li Renjie got up to preach, feeling that it was a waste of time to start recalling.
"Okay, you can carry it on." Nian Lao commanded.
Xu Zhi snorted coldly and said: "Opportunistic, if you have the ability, start from scratch, and if you can memorize two hundred kinds of medicinal materials, I Xu Zhi will serve you!" ”
Li Renjie ignored Xu Zhi and opened his mouth to speak: "Puff follicle grass, a medicinal herb in Mongolian medicine. It is the whole grass of the Solanaceae plant vesicular grass, and the whole grass is harvested in the early summer when the plant grows luxuriantly, and it is dried in the shade. Born on hillsides, ravines, and meadows. Bitter taste, cool nature, poisonous, with the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It is mainly used for the treatment of carbuncle swelling and sores, throat swelling and poison, nasal abyss, deaf ears and other diseases. ”
Xu Taiyang heard Li Renjie recite what he couldn't, and shouted angrily: "What's the use of only reciting one medicinal herb, if you have the ability, you can then recite it down, and you can also recite a thousand kinds of medicinal herbs." ”
