Chapter 8 Artemisia annua
Qin Lin was completely confused, he recognized this roaring big man as the one who stopped him when he was out of the city, called Niu Dali, but he didn't know why meeting again was like having a deep hatred.
I saw that this big man who was also like King Kong rushed to Qin Lin in three or two steps, his thick body brought a gust of wind, gritted his teeth and looked quite unkind, and stretched out his big palm to pull him by the collar of the neck.
Zhang Jianlan, Bai Yong, and the other apprentices were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly dodged far away from both sides, for fear of being bumped into by this bull-like man-look at the momentum and break their tendons and fractures, isn't it an unwarranted disaster?
Lu Yuanzhi and Qing Dai stood on Qin Lin's left side, and when Niu vigorously rushed over, Xiao Fat Dun was stunned, and when he saw that the unknown man wanted to pull Qin Lin's collar, Xiao Fat Dun stepped forward and wanted to reason with the other party, but Qin Lin gently pushed him away.
Qin Lin pushed Lu Yuanzhi away, knowing that the difference between his strength and Niu Dali's strength was too far to fight hard, he was going to let him pounce sideways, and then use the "neck and ear" of the capture fist to hit him in the temple, even if the other party practiced hard qigong, he would have to be dizzy for a while.
Unexpectedly, Qing Dai was behind Qin Lin's side, and he forgot to dodge in surprise, Qin Lin was about to avoid the side when he saw where she was standing, if he avoided Niu Dali's collision from the side to make "stuck neck and ears", Niu Dali, who couldn't contain his momentum, would inevitably hit Qing Dai.
In desperation, Qin Lin had no choice but to cross his hands and move upward, just on the opponent's wrist, only to feel that an incomparably arrogant force was transmitted down his arm, and under this blow, not only the bones of his arms were almost cracked, but even the bones and joints of his whole body were clicking.
Originally, this move he used was the "shelf kick" of the capture boxing, and after the hands were on the shelf, he quickly swung back with the power of the enemy, and at the same time raised his left leg to kick the opponent's lower abdomen, and the move was very sharp.
But Qin Lin is only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy's body, and the other party is a big man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, he has already done his best to "put it on the shelf", where is the spare strength to "bounce and kick"? I have been complaining for a long time.
Although Niu Dali didn't do his best to grasp this grab, he was blocked by the young man who looked a little thin, and he was slightly stunned, and then he shot and grabbed again.
"Ahem," Pang Xian, who was checking the old woman's pulse, frowned, and said coldly: "Strange, is this here to treat the disease in the medical hall, or is it to come to the martial arts hall to fight in the ring?" ”
Niu Dali suddenly realized when he heard this, this is still in Doctor Li's medical hall! He hurriedly put down his raised hand and hung it down obediently beside his thigh, turned his head, and said respectfully with his waist half-hunched:
"To cure the disease, of course, I came to treat my mother. The little one is a rough man, he doesn't know how to be polite, and he collided with the huge man, no wonder, no wonder! ”
Pang Xian made a cold face, snorted in his nose, ignored Niu Dali, and let the old woman change her hand to continue to diagnose the pulse step by step.
Niu Dali's face was pale, big drops of sweat fell from his head, and his huge body trembled, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Pang Xian to apologize:
"Huge husband, the small one is wrong, don't worry about it, in case you diagnose the wrong pulse for my mother, even if the small one hangs himself, he will regret it!"
Qing Dai was just frightened by Niu Dali, a reckless man, but she ran around with her grandfather in the barren mountains and mountains of Qizhou, and she saw a lot of poisonous snakes and beasts, and her courage was much greater than that of ordinary women, seeing Niu Dali's embarrassment of kneeling towards Pang Xian, she laughed and said in a low voice: "Hey, Senior Brother Qin, you see that big man is so funny......
Qin Lin couldn't laugh at it, his two arms seemed to be broken, and Qing Dai inadvertently pulled his arm, making him grin in pain.
Pang Xian listened to Niu Dali's words, but he was angry and funny, and reprimanded: "The heart of the doctor's parents is the mortal enemy who asks for our medical hall, and I will also treat him carefully." Qihuang is the art of helping the world, since our generation is hanging the pot to help the world, how can we use medical skills to coerce and retaliate against patients? You don't know anything! ”
Niu Dali got up from the ground with a loud sound, pointed at Qin Lin, and smiled happily: "That feeling is good!" The big man is really a good person, you have to cure my mother's illness, and I won't worry about this little brother or brother. ”
He originally wanted to talk about the little rabbit cub, but when it came to his mouth, he changed it to a little brother.
Pang Xian smiled dumbly, knowing that there was nothing to say about a rough person like Niu Dali, so he looked at Qin Lin and said: "We are a medical hall, not a martial arts hall, and you must have a peaceful mind to understand the ambiguity when you study medicine, and you are not allowed to cause trouble outside in the future." ”
Zhang Jianlan and Bai Yong glanced at each other, quite gloating.
Only Qin Lin saw that there was a lot of reproach in Pang Xian's eyes, it turned out that Pang Xian's eyesight was extremely good, and he had already pushed Qin Lin away just now and then stopped in front of Qing Dai to see it clearly.
I just don't know why this bull is so angry?
Pang Xian got Li Shizhen's true biography, and his medical skills were quite good, and he quickly judged Niu's illness: "The patient's pulse shows that she is usually healthy, but she just went to a place of dampness and heat miasma and suffered from warm malaria." This disease is fierce and vicious, and it is the most important thing to kill, but as long as it is treated in time, it is not difficult to cure. ”
After listening to Pang Xian's diagnosis, Qin Lin nodded secretly. Although he is not a clinician, he also knows that traditional Chinese medicine calls malaria as warm malaria, and the patient suddenly shiveres, suddenly has a high fever, commonly known as a pendulum, which is more common in Lingnan and Guangzhou, and is an infectious disease transmitted by the bite of Anopheles mosquitoes, which is mostly born in humid and warm places, that is, the miasma of the people.
It's just that the symptomatic medicine for malaria is quinine, that is, cinchona cream, which is produced in South America, and it has certainly not been introduced to China yet, so how can Pang Xian treat it?
I heard Pang Xian confidently said: "Artemisia annua is a good medicine for the treatment of warm malaria, this thing is hard, bitter, cold, non-toxic, in addition to treating warm malaria, it can also cure children's wind chill and fever......"
Qin Lin suddenly realized, and slapped his head on the door, why did he forget about Artemisia annua? Hehe, we're not studying clinical at all.
Malaria is a frequent disease in the tropics, subtropics and warm temperate zones, and is common in Huguang, Lingnan, Jiangxi, and Fujian in China, and this demon has taken the lives of tens of millions of people in Southeast Asia and Africa, and it is estimated that the number of patients who died of malaria in the entire 20th century actually exceeded the death toll of the two world wars!
Quinine, or cinchona cream native to South America, has been the only symptomatic drug for malaria for centuries, but it has no small toxic side effects and a low cure rate.
It was not until the 70s, during the Vietnam War, in order to protect the health of soldiers, that Chinese experts searched ancient books for folk Chinese medicine and found that the crystals extracted from Artemisia annua were particularly effective against malaria, which changed the pattern of quinine's dominance in the world. It has the advantages of good curative effect, small side effects and high cure rate, and has been praised and funded by the World Health Organization, and is a major contribution of traditional Chinese medicine to all mankind.
Qin Lin used to work not far from the planting base and manufacturer of Artemisia annua, but as a forensic doctor who dealt with the dead, he was not impressed by the medicine that treated the living.
Knowing that there was a special medicine for malaria, Qin Lin made up his mind.
Qing Dai didn't know that Qin Lin was thinking about artemisinin, she only saw that Qin Lin's face was cloudy, sad and troubled for a while, and pretended to be calm for a while, and when he was frightened by Niu Dali, she whispered "comforting" him: "Senior Brother Qin, what are you afraid of!" As long as Mr. Pang heals the reckless man's mother, he won't embarrass you...... Hey, I said you coward, you can't see that you are still causing so much trouble, how did you provoke him? ”
Qing Dai has a faint medicinal fragrance on her body, and her voice is as crisp as a silver bell, and her breath is like an orchid.
Qin Lin was stunned and ignored it.
Qing Dai followed his gaze, there were seven or eight stoves between the lobby of the medical hall and the pharmacy, steaming medicine, and there were three or four men taking care of it, neither boiling dry and smoking, nor water rolling out, she looked left and right and didn't see anything wrong.
Suddenly, Qin Lin asked eagerly, "Do you have to boil the medicinal herbs?" ”
Qing Dai's eyes were wide open, and he didn't understand Qin Lin's intentions, so he hesitated: "You said that you want to boil medicine, naturally you have to boil it." ”
Qin Lin's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, thinking about his identity as a beginner medical artist, it was inconvenient to tell Pang Xian directly, so he said to Qingdai: "Artemisia annua can't be tormented when used to treat malaria, otherwise the high temperature will destroy the active ingredients, and there will be no curative effect." ”
"Ah, I thought you hadn't studied medicine, but I didn't expect you to know a lot, no wonder grandpa said that your way of dealing with snake bites is very good!" Qing Dai's delicate eyebrows were raised, she looked at Qin Lin curiously, paused and said: "Behind the Elbow", Artemisia annua is grasped, two liters of water, pounded juice and served, and the treatment of warm malaria has a miraculous effect. Just pound the juice, and you really don't need to fry it. ”
Qin Lin secretly laughed at his worries.
Traditional Chinese medicine often boiled herbs to make a decoction to take, but when it came to the treatment of malaria with Artemisia annua, the method of use became "pounding juice and taking it directly" - that is to say, ancient medical scientists had clearly recognized that the effect of Artemisia annua on malaria would be destroyed by decoction, so they specially recorded the correct way to take it!
It's no wonder that we are the descendants of Yan and Huang, and Emperor Yan is the Shennong clan who tasted a hundred herbs......
At the same time as Pang Xian diagnosed the condition, the apprentice had already sharpened the ink, spread out the paper, and asked him to write down the prescription and then take it to the pharmacy to take the medicine.
When Pang Xian was waving, the housekeeper Liu Quan came from the back hall, with a beaming face, looking at everyone and saying loudly: "Mr. Pang, King Jing Chitose set up a banquet for the old man, the third master and you because you were sick for the prince last time, and the old man asked you to clean up, so let's go." ”
There are people in Qizhou who don't know the Ming Emperor, but they don't know that there is really no Jingwang Mansion, I heard that Pang Xian cured the illness for the prince of Jing Wang, and the Chitose Lord also specially set up a banquet to invite him, and there was a sigh of admiration inside and outside the hall.
The students and guys of the medical hall are not easy to boast about, and the patients and their families have already given their thumbs up: "Li Family Medical Center, wonderful hands rejuvenation!" ”
Pang Xian's expression was faint and he didn't take it seriously.
Artemisia annua juice mixed with water to treat malaria, because it was not tormented and taken directly, so the juice was cold, Niu Shi covered a few quilts at this time and was still shivering with cold, and he couldn't pour it with medicine, Pang Xian made up his mind to wait for her to take medicine when she had a fever, so he wrote the medical record unhurriedly.
After only writing a few lines, Li Jianfang accompanied Li Shizhen out, Li Shizhen still wore a black straight jacket and jade silk silk when he went up the mountain to collect medicine, and Li Jianfang changed into a new green silk gown, and he cleaned up and down meticulously.
Seeing that Pang Xian was still writing about the medical case, Li Jianfang frowned slightly: "Senior Brother Pang, His Royal Highness King Jing has a banquet to treat each other, and it is not good to make the Chitose Lord wait for a long time." ”
Li Shizhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "The patient is important, don't worry." After that, he checked the pulse of Niu Shi on the stretcher, and walked to Pang Xian's side with pacing, looking at the medical record he wrote, and nodding slightly while reading, naturally thinking that the apprentice's prescription was right for the symptoms, and the patient would be able to be treated.
Although Li Shizhen said that he was not in a hurry, Pang Xian couldn't let the master wait for a long time, and after writing the medical records and prescriptions, he took them to the first apprentice Zhang Jianlan: "Go to the pharmacy to get two bunches of Artemisia annua, mix them with water and pound the juice, and take them when the patient changes from cold to fever. ”
Pang Xian, his master Li Shizhen, and his junior brother Li Jianyuan left the hospital at the beckon of King Jing Chitose, and before leaving, he passed by Qin Lin and said in a low voice: "Although Niu Dali is rude, he is not a bad person...... If you have any grievances with him, you should settle them as soon as possible. ”
Qin Lin nodded to Pang Xian, feeling the other party's sincere kindness, and at the same time, he also noticed that Zhang Jianlan's expression became even more gloomy when he saw Pang Xian whispering to him.
Li's medical hall is a three-entry courtyard, the front street is in the middle of the medical hall lobby, the west is the school, the east is the pharmacy, the scale is not small. Zhang Jianlan hurried away with the prescription, and after a while, she took Artemisia annua from the pharmacy.
After all, malaria patients are rare in Qizhou, and it is a rare experience in medicine to pound Artemisia annua by hand.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jianlan glanced around among the apprentices in the medical hall, and finally looked at Qin Lin slyly: "Senior Brother Qin, you are not familiar with the surname of medicine, so start by pounding medicine, and practice first!" ”
