Nieyang, Zhang, patriarch Zhang Heng Fuzhong.

Zhang Heng stood in front of the main seat, holding a bamboo slip and a cloth in his hand, and looked at it again and again in disbelief, and after a while, he asked Zhang Zhongjing, who was kneeling at the tail seat: "Is this serious?!" ”

Zhang Ji rushed back to Nieyang City overnight, and didn't have time to say anything, but handed over a bamboo slip and a cloth first.

The bamboo is left by Zhuge Liang that day, and it records the method of planting pox. What is recorded on the cloth is Zhang Zhongjing's verification record of the feasibility of the pox method over the past few days.

As a doctor, Zhang Heng's medical skills are not low, so he naturally knows the preciousness of these two records.

It can be said that if the method of planting pox is really feasible, it is for the benefit of the common people.

From now on, as long as they do not get involved in officialdom and do not die by themselves, they can continue to be immortal for thousands of years; Even if the dynasty changes, the new emperor will only reward their Nieyang Zhang family, and will not move them in the slightest.

This is like Shandong Kong's.

Since the prevalence of Confucianism and Taoism, Confucius has been revered as a Confucian sage, and the Shandong Confucian clan has been standing. As long as the Shandong Kong clan does not die by itself, those in power will only be rewarded, and they will not destroy the Kong clan at every turn.

If this method of pox is feasible and implemented by their Nieyang Zhang clan, after a hundred and ten years, their Nieyang Zhang clan can almost be compared with the Shandong Kong clan, and it will last for thousands of years and will be immortal.

This Zhang Heng is not the other Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng, who counted the stars, had been an ancient man for more than 60 years; Zhang Heng, the patriarch of the Zhang clan in Niyang, is a doctor.

Although Zhang Heng is a healer and unkind, this method of pox can not only benefit the whole world, but also improve their Nieyang Zhang clan's compulsion, as the patriarch of the Nieyang Zhang clan, how can Zhang Heng not be tempted?

When Zhang Zhongjing was about to answer, the elders of the clan came one after another.

The elders were invited to the patriarch's mansion overnight, and they were invited by Zhang Ji, so they were naturally a little unhappy in their hearts.

For some reason, they needed to discuss it overnight, and they were just unhappy with Zhang Ji.

Although they are doctors of the same clan, the Tao is different, and everyone does not conspire with each other on weekdays.

The main reason is that Zhang Zhongjing's attitude towards patients is completely different from that of the elders of their clan.

Zhang Zhongjing hangs the pot in the world, he doesn't care much about the amount of money for the patient's diagnosis, as long as it is a patient, he will do his best to treat it; And the elders in the clan, although their medical skills are also very superb, they rarely care for the diagnosis and treatment of patients who do not have a consultation fee.

With him Zhang Ji being a good person, are the other doctors in the clan unkind and unjust?

With such a stark contrast, for the elders of the Nieyang Zhang family, there will naturally be rumors behind their backs.

If it weren't for Zhang Zhongjing's medical skills, he would have been able to become a banner of the Zhang clan in Nieyang, but I am afraid that he would have been suppressed by the clan a long time ago. However, even if Zhang Zhongjing was not suppressed, the attitude of the elders of the clan towards him was not very friendly.

Zhang Zhongjing naturally knew this, but he didn't care much about it.

The so-called back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach.

Sooner or later, these elders in the clan will die.

After they all die, the banner of the Nieyang Zhang clan will have to be resisted by him Zhang Ji. Now, what he has to do is to take the younger generation of healers out for a walk, lest they be distorted by those elders.

A doctor must have a benevolent heart!

And this time to implement the method of pox, it is an opportunity.

If this method wants to be implemented throughout the world, it cannot be done without hundreds of doctors.

Even, Zhang Zhongjing felt that even if there were tens of thousands of doctors, it would not be enough.

……

The elders came, but Zhang Zhongjing was not in a hurry to answer the question of the patriarch Zhang Heng, but took the two records from the patriarch and passed them to the elders of the clan one by one. Some questions are still answered by waiting for the elders to read them.

"Does cowpox really prevent smallpox?"

After the five elders read these two records, their expressions of surprise were no different from those of the patriarch just now.

They didn't refute Zhang Ji, which was nonsense, but suddenly, when they heard that planting cowpox could prevent smallpox, they were a little incredulous for a while.

Besides, although they are not compatible with Zhang Zhongjing, they still trust Zhang Zhongjing's character and medical skills.

"Uncles, uncles and grandfathers, this matter is indeed true."

Zhang Zhongjing got up and replied to everyone present.

The five elders, plus the patriarch, are all higher in rank than him Zhang Zhongjing. There was even one of them who was a contemporary of his grandfather.

"When Zhuge Kongming gave me the method of planting pox, I was like all the elders, and I couldn't believe it. But Zhuge Kongming said that the Hu people on the grassland have been exposed to cowpox for a long time, but they are immune to smallpox, and they have never heard of any Hu people dying of smallpox. ”

"Therefore, during this period of time, I took my eldest son Zhang Yuan to conduct various verifications on the method of planting pox in the farm outside the city."

"The results of the verification are recorded on the cloth, and the elders can look at it with confidence."

"If you don't believe it, among the Zhuangzi outside the city, there are still ten people who have just successfully planted pox, and they can be tested by your elders."

"Among them, there is my family's son Boshen."

Everyone here can influence the fate of the Zhang family in Niyang, for fear that they will not believe it, Zhang Zhongjing hurriedly explained.

Zhang Heng sat on the main seat, waved his hand, and motioned for Zhang Zhongjing to sit down and speak.

"Zhong Jingxian's nephew's character and medical skills, we can naturally trust. It's just that all of a sudden, it's a little unbelievable that the smallpox plague that plagues the people can be prevented so easily. ”

After appeasing Zhang Zhongjing, Zhang Heng asked again: "Since the virtuous nephew has verified that this method is feasible, and he invited the elders of the clan overnight tonight, but he wants to persuade me to wait and ask me to support the whole clan of the Nieyang Zhang clan and implement the method of pox cultivation in the world?" ”

Zhang Heng is a doctor, so he naturally knows that if he wants to implement the method of pox in the whole world, it is not something that one or two people can do; Even if the whole clan of their Nieyang Zhang clan dispatched, it only barely benefited a corner of the Central Plains.

I can't say it, when the time comes, I have to call on all the doctors in the world to learn the method of planting pox, and then we can benefit the whole world.

As for that, relying on the government?

First, they have ancestral training in the Zhang clan and cannot be officials. Moreover, with the current situation of great chaos in the world, the princes in various places are too financially insufficient to expand their armaments, how can they have spare energy to plant pox for the people?

Therefore, the method of planting pox can only be implemented by doctors in the world.

……

Zhang Zhongjing got up and replied: "After suddenly learning about this method and verifying that it is feasible, the younger generation is really excited. Therefore, I invited all the uncles and elders to discuss overnight, hoping to implement this law in the world in time and avoid the suffering of smallpox among the people! ”

"The method of planting pox is very simple, and the doctor will learn it as soon as he learns it."

"The elders are old, and it is not appropriate to travel far away, just sit in Nanyang. As for other counties, there are still more than 100 young children in our clan, or in groups of two or three or three, or in teams of three or five, they can plant pox for the people of a county. ”

Zhang Zhongjing said, and the living room fell silent for a while.

The elders were thinking about it, communicating in a low voice, and the gains and losses of implementing the method of planting pox. They generally don't focus on the overall situation, only care about the immediate benefits and losses, and only care about whether the people have enough money to accept their Zhang's pox planting method.

The patriarch Zhang Heng was also silently calculating, it was rare that he didn't care about the consultation fee this time, but wanted to name the method of planting pox.

In this era, although there is no naming right, there is no patent right. But if the method of planting pox is named after their Zhang family, thousands of years later, when the people accept the pox, they will also know that this is the merit of their Nieyang Zhang family.

For example, when it comes to the Analects, the first thing that comes to mind is Confucius.

What Zhang Heng wants is that thousands of years later, when the people mention the method of planting pox, the first thing that comes to mind is the Nieyang Zhang family.

As for thinking of Zhang Zhongjing or thinking of him Zhang Heng, he didn't care too much.

After all, there must be a record in the history of Huanghuang, and it is under the vigorous promotion of his Zhang Heng that the method of planting pox can benefit the world!

"This pox method, since it was initiated by Zhuge Kongming, can it be named?"

After being silent for a long time, Zhang Heng asked.

For the name of Zhuge Liang, the Zhang family of Nieyang naturally knows it.

Is it the name of Wolong?

In recent years, it has been widely spread in Jingxiang!

If it was a method of planting pox provided by ordinary people, Zhang Heng might snatch it and kill people.

But Zhuge Liang and Zhang Heng guessed that there was someone behind this Zhuge Liang. Otherwise, how could the reputation of a mere scholar who was in the middle of the road spread throughout Jingxiang?

There is a saying that when a donkey's butt is cocked, he knows what the action is.

Regarding the virtues of these elders in the clan, Zhang Zhongjing is clear. If it is an irrelevant person, the patriarch wants to take the credit of others, and he, Zhang Zhongjing, will turn a blind eye and will not offend the elders in the clan.

However, the first merit of the method of planting pox must be Zhuge Liang's!

Zhuge Liang is the nephew of his friend Zhang Zhongjing!

And, although the number of interactions is not much, Zhang Zhongjing is very optimistic about Zhuge Liang.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang had a thousand ways to thank him Zhang Zhongjing, but he came up with a method of planting pox, which was not only to repay him for Zhang Zhongjing's original diagnosis and treatment, but more importantly, I am afraid that he also wanted to save the people from the suffering of smallpox.

Zhuge Liang is so benevolent and righteous, how could Zhang Zhongjing let people take his first credit?

Moreover, there is another speculation that Zhang Zhongjing will not declare.

Zhuge Liang has opened up the sea of knowledge, and he is a monk.

Although Zhang Zhongjing is not a monk, as far as he knows, a monk needs the support of luck.

The method of planting pox benefits all the people and all generations, which is a huge merit and a huge amount of luck. If they Nieyang Zhang's implementation of it in the world, it is already immeasurable, and they still have to take away Zhuge Liang's share of luck?

Therefore, to the patriarch's question, Zhang Zhongjing answered very simply: "This method is called Zhuge Pox!" ”

Perhaps, worried that these elders in the clan were hungry for profit and wanted to take it by force, Zhang Zhongjing said again: "According to my guess, this method is very likely to be Zhuge Liang's master and build momentum for him." ”

The implication is that it is not easy to take by force.

Zhuge Liang's name of Wolong has spread in Jingxiang within two or three years, and discerning people only know that this is the force behind him, building momentum for him. At this time, Zhang Zhongjing wanted to use this to scare these elders in the clan.
