Chapter Ninety-Seven: Apprenticeship with Hua Tuo

Liu Yong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Old man?" Where is he? ”

"At the moment, I am drinking tea in General Guan's room. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Liu Yong hurriedly walked to Guan Yu's room. At this time, Guan Yu was chatting happily with an old man, and when he heard Liu Yong's footsteps, the old man raised his head, with a childish face and a red face, but it was the divine doctor Hua Tuo.

Liu Yong was surprised and delighted: "I didn't expect it to be Mr. Hua!" Liu Yong and the old gentleman have been separated for more than a year, can the gentleman still be healthy? ”

Hua Tuo smiled and said: "Mr. Lao is worried, everything is good when he is old." ”

"Mr. is home all over the world, and it is difficult to find immortal traces, Liu Yong searched around, but there was still no news. Unexpectedly, Mr. came to the door by himself, which was really Liu Yong's joy. ”

Hua Tuo said with a smile: "Childe has a lot of insight into medical skills, what are the difficult diseases that need to be diagnosed and treated by Hua Tuo?" ”

Liu Yong also smiled: "Mr. made fun of Liu Yong." I can't even talk about medical skills, and how dare I compare with Mr. It's just that this illness is very weird, please give me advice. General Guan doesn't like medical skills, so why don't you go back to Liu Yong's room and talk about it in detail? ”

"Good!" Hua Tuo heard that it was a difficult disease, and his skills were unbearable, so he hugged his fists and said goodbye to Guan Yu.

Back in the room, Liu Yong explained Chen Deng's illness in detail, and took out Zhang Zhongjing's prescription, saying: "Zhang Taishou also said that this prescription may not be symptomatic, and asked me to use it with caution, so Liu Yong has not dared to use it." ”

Hua Tuo pondered for a long time and said: "This is a disease of internal poisonous insects, according to this prescription, there should be no problem with deworming, but it is difficult to break the roots." If it recurs, it is not only useless but even harmful. ”

Liu Yong was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground, after all, he was a miracle doctor, so he said: "Liu Yong is worried about this, and he doesn't dare to treat according to the prescription." So according to Mr.'s wishes, how to deal with it? ”

Hua Tuo replied: "The diagnosis method pays attention to looking, smelling, asking, and cutting, and only when you have seen the patient first and the diagnosis is clear, can you use the medicine." Liu Yong nodded again and again, deeply convinced.

"Where is this man now?" Hua Tuo asked again.

"This person is Guangling Taishou, Fubo General Chen Deng."

"Good. The old man went to Guangling for a while. ”

"Thank you, sir!" Liu Yong gave a deep salute and said with a smile: "I don't know where Mr. has gone, but Liu Yong has not heard from him." ”

"The old man lives deep in the mountains and concentrates on the development of 'hemp boiling powder', and the son naturally doesn't know."

"Mr. Fei has already developed it?" Liu Yong was surprised and delighted.

Hua Tuo nodded with a smile and said, "It's not the son's guidance that makes this happen." Shicai talked with General Guan, and he was also quite interested. ”

"Congratulations sir. As soon as this medicine came out, it was really rich for all people. Liu Yong said with emotion.

Hua Tuo stroked his beard, with a smile on his face, and said: "Hua Tuo made this medicine, and Gongzi contributed a lot. ”

Liu Yong waved his hand and said "I don't dare", and asked: "Can Mr. stay in Xudu for a long time?" ”

"Childe, but what's the matter?"

Liu Yong said timidly: "I want to worship Mr. as a teacher and learn medical skills." ”

Hua Tuo laughed and joked: "In the past, the old man was willing to give him everything, but the son insisted on not accepting it, so why is he begging for old decay now?" ”

Liu Yong said embarrassedly: "At that time, the kid was stupid and ignorant, and I was willing to ask Mr. Forgive." ”

Hua Tuo already has a deep affection for Liu Yong, and loves him, seeing that he is still humble and polite to himself even more although he is in an important position, so he smiled and said: "The old man makes fun of him, and the son must not be careful." However, although Hua Tuo taught his son skills, he didn't see it as a master and apprentice, okay? ”

Liu Yong shook his head and said: "The so-called one day is a teacher, and a lifetime is a father." Since Mr. is willing to accept Liu Yong, how can he not worship the teacher. As he spoke, he fell to the ground and said, "Sir, please accept Liu Yong's worship." As he spoke, he bowed respectfully a few times.

Hua Tuo was even more happy when he saw Liu Yong being very respectful, with tears in his eyes, he pulled him up and asked, "Good, good, good!" I'm afraid that I can only stay for more than a month as a teacher, in addition to the four diagnoses and eight methods, what do Chongru want to learn first? ”

Liu Yong had a plan, so he said: "Can Liu Yong study gynecology, obstetrics and pediatrics first, and then learn temperature disease, epidemic disease, acupuncture, etc.?" ”

Hua Tuo was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Liu Yong was thinking, and laughed and said: "Chongru originally wanted to learn, but it was for his family." ”

Liu Yong sneered and said: "Liu Yong is selfish, ashamed!" Don't hide it from the master, there is an epidemic of epidemics, so there are many infections and deaths, if Liu Yong has this skill, he can not only prepare for the needs of the family, but also treat the patients in the world, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone. ”

Hua Tuo sighed and said: "I have traveled all over for my teacher, and although there are many people who have died from epidemics, they are less than one-tenth of the war. Only when the world is peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment can there be a day when the epidemic will subside. ”

Liu Yong nodded yes, but both of them were helpless about the current situation. Hua Tuo said: "Chongru has a deep medical theory, far beyond being a teacher, and what is lacking is practical experience." If you only learn diagnosis and treatment, it is difficult to make progress; It would be of great benefit if you could see more cases and miscellaneous diseases and answer questions and doubts for the teacher. I don't know if Chongke has the time to walk around the countryside with his teacher? ”

Liu Yong replied: "This is easy, tomorrow Liu Yong will announce his leave to Cao." He asked cautiously, "There is a young lady in this hospital who is sick, can you ask the master to come tomorrow for treatment?" ”

Hua Tuo said with a smile: "This is the duty of a doctor, how can a teacher shirk it." As a teacher, he is used to going to bed early, and he is like a self-convenience. Liu Yong was overjoyed and sent Hua Tuo to the guest room to rest.

Early the next morning, Liu Yong first went to Hua Tuo's place to ask for peace, but Hua Tuo had already gone out early in the morning, so he handed a bouquet of flowers to Cui'er and asked, "Miss, can you get up?" ”

Cui'er said, "Not yet." ”

Liu Yong asked again: "Does Cui'er know that Miss is in good health?" Cui'er thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "Miss doesn't seem to be sick. It's just that the spirit is a little worse, the food is less, and the sleep is not very stable, does this count? ”

Liu Yong was silent for a moment and asked, "Does Miss have a warm lower abdomen and warm limbs?" ”

Cui'er smiled: "I have never touched Miss's belly." But it's true that Miss's feet are cold, and it's still cold to touch her feet when I helped her pull the futon this morning. ”

Liu Yong nodded and said, "Liu Yong is going to bring a famous doctor over in a while, please let Miss know." Cui'er nodded in agreement.

After a while, Hua Tuo returned to the mansion, and Liu Yong asked Andao: "Where did the master go so early?" ”

Hua Tuo smiled: "The wilderness is quiet and quiet, the air is fresh, and it is just right to do the 'five bird plays'." ”

Liu Yong patted his head and said with a smile: "Liu Yong should have known a long time ago." The master's set of 'five poultry operas' has both movement and static, rigidity and softness, and both internal and external training, which can not only strengthen the body, but also cure diseases and maintain health. When did the master also teach the disciples? ”

Hua Tuo teased: "I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of bed." ”

Liu Yong laughed, accompanied Hua Tuo to breakfast, and asked Hua Tuo to diagnose Diao Chan.

Diao Chan also knew the fame of the divine doctor, and was busy saluting Hua Tuo. Liu Yong said: "Doctor Hua Shen travels around, and it is rare to see him. Therefore, Liu Yong took the liberty to invite the master to diagnose the young lady, but did not notify in time and apologized. Diao Chan said in his heart, in fact, you suspected that I had a disease, so I asked Cui'er in the morning, it is rare for you to be so considerate. It's just that when did you worship Hua Tuo as a teacher again?

Hua Tuo asked Liu Yong: "Chongru, what is the priority of the four methods of looking, smelling, asking, and cutting?" ”

Liu Yong secretly thought that the Chinese veterinarians he studied were all faced with animals that could not speak, and they all asked the owner first, then auscultation and inspection, and finally pulse diagnosis, but he didn't know what it was like to treat people. Thinking about it, Liu Yong said: "Students think that the consultation is the first, and the pulse diagnosis is the last, but I don't know if it's right?" ”

Hua Tuo shook his head and said, "It's a big mistake. If you ask the patient first, it is easy to preconceive, and it is inevitable that you will be biased, and it will be even more difficult to discern the subtleties. Therefore, in the four methods, the pulse should be cut first, the patient's pulse should be obtained first, and then the tongue quality, tongue coating, and tongue color should be observed, and finally the diagnosis should be verified. Liu Yong muttered and nodded yes.

Hua Tuo invited Diao Chan to sit opposite, and said, "Please Miss stretch out your hand." Diao Chan was happy and ashamed, she had a dark disease, she knew it for a long time, glanced at Liu Yong, rolled up her sleeves shyly, and stretched out her slender jade hand.

Hua Tuo stretched out three fingers and lightly placed them on Diao Chan's wrist, concentrating on the pulsation. After a while, Hua Tuo stood up and said to Liu Yong: "Chongru you come to cut the pulse, see what the pulse is?" ”

Liu Yong was surprised and delighted, sat down busily, stretched out his right index finger, middle finger and ring finger, respectively on the inch, guan, and ruler of Diao Chan's wrist, and the fingers touched, only to feel that the skin was gentle and delicate, as bright as white jade. After both hands had been diagnosed, Hua Tuo asked, "What does Chongru think should be the main symptom from the pulse?" ”

Liu Yong replied: "Miss's pulse is heavy and tight, and she should be cold." ”

Hua Tuo nodded, let Diao Chan open his mouth to check the color of his tongue, and asked about the symptoms, and even asked about the urine and menstruation that his daughter's family was ashamed to talk about. Diao Chan was ashamed and annoyed, although the doctor's parents were concerned, and Hua Tuo was old enough to be a father, he could barely accept such an inquiry in his heart, but now there was another person by his side. Although this person is not disgusting, but in the end he is a young man, and he has an unclear relationship with himself, which is what she said. Therefore, Diao Chan's face was even more red, and he didn't dare to respond, and Liu Yong was also embarrassed.

Hua Tuo looked at Diao Chan's expression, and knew it in his heart, so he said: "Miss doesn't say it, the old man also knows the reason." Diao Chan breathed a sigh of relief, and listened to Hua Tuo still say: "Miss's tongue is light, white and greasy and slippery, and the pulse is heavy and tight, which is a disease of cold in the palace, if it is not treated in time, it will be too late to regret." ”

Diao Chan was shocked: "Sir, can the slave family still be cured of this disease?" ”

"It's okay." Hua Tuo smiled slightly, and said: "Miss takes the medicine according to the prescription and regulates it for a few months, and it will definitely be effective." Diao Chan was overjoyed, and Hua Tuo said: "It's just that I will leave after the old decay month, and I will worship the following in the future." Turning sideways and explaining a few words to Liu Yong, he picked up the pen and opened the prescription.

Liu Yong had long wanted to use the youth of Diao Chan to follow Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu for a long time but nothing came out, so he guessed that she had the disease of uterine cold. This disease is mild and cold, and the severe is dysmenorrhea and infertility. Diao Chan thought the same in his heart, he was grateful to Liu Yong, his eyes peeked, and he saw Liu Yong staring at Hua Tuo's medicine, and asked from time to time, his face was full of concern, and he couldn't help but move in his heart.
