Chapter 20: On the Word
After saying goodbye to Sun Simiao, Li Siyuan returned home in the carriage of the Qin Palace, and when he was leaving, the housekeeper of the Qin Palace, told Li Siyuan that he could not go to the Qin Palace's school for the time being, and just wait for the notice at home, Li Siyuan didn't care about this, he didn't think that the King of Qin's move was giving up on himself, otherwise he would not have sent a carriage to send him!
When I got home, it was completely dark, and my mother knew that Li Siyuan had to deal with Princess Qin's examination today, and she didn't worry too much about her son coming back late, so after a simple chat at the dinner table, Li Siyuan returned to his room, ready to start writing the "Compendium of Materia Medica" silently with light and oil!
"Ji said: Look at the dragon light, know the ancient sword; Treasure gas, distinguish pearls. Therefore, Ping is a real business sheep, not a bright Modong. After the seizure, the naturalist is called Hua, the character is called Kang, and the analysis of Baoyu is called Yidun, and it is only the morning star ear .........."
found a blank book, Li Siyuan began to write on the desk, Li Siyuan in the previous life gradually began to pay attention to health after making a career, for Li Shizhen wrote this "Compendium of Materia Medica" is also a few more times, and now he is also completely relying on his memory to search out little by little!
In the original work, some words and characters such as the Tang and Song dynasties are mentioned in many places, and Li Siyuan naturally does not record them, but he does not plan to let go of some medicinal materials and prescriptions that are not available now!
There are only ten days left until the ninth day of the next month, although the time is not urgent, but it is not very rich, so Li Siyuan wrote until late at night to finish the prologue and examples of the "Compendium of Materia Medica"!
After writing like this day and night for a few days, he only wrote less than one-tenth of it silently, not that Li Siyuan couldn't remember, nor that Li Siyuan wrote too slowly, but the book "Compendium of Materia Medica", there are too many medical classics recorded!
On this day, Li Siyuan calculated that the time was already the eighth day of the fourth month, and tomorrow was the time to meet with the medicine king brothers, and looked at the excerpt of the "Compendium of Materia Medica" in his hand, he nodded with satisfaction, this excerpt, although it is only one-tenth of the original work, what is recorded here, in addition to the content of the Compendium of Materia Medica, there are also some prescriptions of some famous doctors after Li Shizhen, Li Siyuan has put a lot of thought into this meeting!
On the ninth day of the first month of April, the wind and sun were beautiful, and the sky was clear, Li Siyuan got up early to freshen up and dress up, and after eating two bites, he rushed to the Qinwang Mansion in Chang'an City!
When he came to the medicine house, Han Shanzi and Sun Simiao had already begun to exchange their experiences there, and after seeing Li Siyuan's arrival, Sun Simiao instructed the medicine boy to take a bench for Li Siyuan and sit with them.
As soon as he sat down, Han Shanzi asked impatiently, "Are you Li Siyuan?" Is it that you have been taught by the gods? Hurry up and bring your "Compendium of Materia Medica", so that the old man can take a good look at the magic of the fairy family medical book! ”
Seeing Han Shanzi's anxious appearance, Li Siyuan's hanging heart was put down for most of the time, he took out the book from his arms and put it on the table: "Two seniors, the content recorded in this book is too vast, the kid has only recorded less than one-tenth of it in the past few days without sleep, and I hope that the two Haihan!" But let's come to Japan for a long time, and if we have the opportunity in the future, the kid will transcribe it for the two of you! ”
Before Li Siyuan's words were finished, he found that this Taoist priest and a beggar had already looked at it there, and he shook his head helplessly, it seems that what he just said was in vain!
The two of them looked through and discussed, and looked at Li Siyuan from time to time, at first Li Siyuan was a little overwhelmed by the two of them's actions, but after a lot of times, he himself got used to it!
Time passed quickly in such a strange atmosphere, and it was almost noon The two closed the book, Sun Simiao turned his head to look at Li Siyuan, but Han Shanzi on the side closed his eyes and pondered!
Seeing that the two of them were silent for a long time, Li Siyuan's heart couldn't help but beat a little drum, and he asked a little worriedly: "Are the two seniors dissatisfied with this medical book?" Don't worry, this is only a small part of the "Compendium of Materia Medica", there are many medicinal herbs and prescriptions and treatment of trauma, as well as some methods of surgery, the kid has not completely extracted! ”
Hearing this, Sun Simiao shook his head: "No, there are many things contained above that are far beyond what I and my senior brother have seen and heard, just take Sanqi as an example, we have never known such a good medicinal material, but whether it is true or false, we still need to verify it one by one before we can make a final conclusion!" ”
As soon as his words fell, Han Shanzi next to him also opened his eyes: "Boy, this medical book of yours does have subtleties, but if it is said that he is taught by the immortal family, it is a bit far-fetched!" ”
After listening to the words of the two, Li Siyuan knew that he was too worried: "What the two seniors said is very reasonable, and Hanshanzi's predecessors are also discerning, in fact, there are no gods and ghosts in this world, everything is just a self-consolation method generated by people's fear of unknown things, both of them have been cultivating immortals and enlightened for most of their lives, but have you ever seen immortals?" Don't say it's you, I'm afraid you haven't even seen your master Qingxiazi's predecessors, right? ”
Sun Simiao was better when he heard this, but he just sat there frowning and pondering, but this Hanshanzi was poked in the sore spot, he had suffered for most of his life, in order to fulfill his master's last wish and find the way to cultivate immortals? Now a young man suddenly ran out and told himself that what he had been looking for all these years did not exist at all, how could he accept it!
"Huangkou Xiaoer, you dare to say that there are no gods in this world, you are not afraid of the blame of the gods? Aren't you afraid of heaven's punishment? Han Shanzi got up and scolded Li Siyuan angrily!
"If there is really the blame of the gods, and there is really the punishment of sinners, then why should the imperial court set up yamen in various places, just burn incense and pray every day, and the bad people will have gods to condemn themselves, wouldn't that be more worry-free and effort-saving, and why bother?"
"Qubble, you said that there are no gods in the world, then let me ask you, how are wind, rain, thunder and lightning formed? Why do flowers and trees wither? ”
"Wind: Due to the difference in latitude and longitude, the sun irradiates the uneven distribution of heat on the surface, resulting in air movement, which forms the wind; Rain: The evaporated water vapor accumulates in the liquefied air to form condensation nuclei, which gradually increases, and when it reaches a certain level, rain will be formed; Thunder and lightning: When the voltage reaches the level that it can pass through the air, the two adjacent clouds will be discharged, resulting in electric sparks and loud noises, which is thunder and lightning. ”
"As for the withering of flowers and trees, it is simpler, with light, water, and at the right temperature, flowers and trees will naturally flourish, and vice versa."
Han Shanzi saw that Li Siyuan answered his question very calmly, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, he had been looking for the answer all these years, but he didn't expect a teenager to be able to answer, although the truth is not yet known, but this has begun to shake Han Shanzi's determination to seek immortals!
He stood there for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses, and after about half a cup of tea, Han Shanzi sat back on the stool, and asked like a dying struggle, "Aren't you a child of immortals?" Why do you now say that there are no gods in the world? ”
"I'm not an immortal disciple, all the things I know are just taught by a master, it's just that this master once told me not to reveal his whereabouts, so I made up the identity of an immortal disciple, the purpose is just to facilitate things in the world!"
"Then why are you telling us this now, don't you know that destroying people's beliefs is more hateful than killing people?"
"Seniors, the younger generations are not trying to destroy other people's beliefs, but the younger generations feel that it is a pity to pursue such an ethereal immortal path with the talents of the two, there are still so many poor people in the world who have no medical treatment, and there is no cure, why should the two of them be obsessed with being a heavenly god and a human immortal, and they have not wasted their own learning?"
The two of them discussed word by word, and in the end, Sun Simiao and Han Shanzi closed their eyes, and Li Siyuan didn't lobby when he saw this, got up and left!
He knew that the two of them must have wavered about the matter of cultivating immortals at this time, but it was difficult to accept it for a while to behave like this, and after a long time, the two accepted their words, and they didn't need to look for them, they would also come to find themselves!
Thinking of this, Li Siyuan hummed a little song leisurely and set foot on the road home!
