Chapter 23 The Science of Traditional Chinese Medicine

The Imperial Rider replied, "Do you need to ask?" Of course, Chinese medicine is not scientific, but it is effective, do you think that today to treat the old man Lin, is it scientific? Many well-known Chinese medicine practitioners in the imperial capital privately visit the registration fee is thousands of dollars, which shows that traditional Chinese medicine is effective, and they usually treat some diseases that modern medicine cannot cure, unless you think that those powerful people in the imperial capital are not as good as ordinary people to understand things, and now young people advocate scientific logic, and so on the old Chinese medicine is dead, and so on until the traditional Chinese medicine spawned by chemical fertilizers and pesticides is becoming more and more ineffective, then it is the real trough of traditional Chinese medicine. ”

After a pause, Yucheng continued: "Traditional Chinese medicine is like Go, easy to learn and difficult to master, with the development of the economy, health care in the lives of the people gradually began to occupy a large proportion, TV programs in all kinds of medical experts teach talk shows, tell the people what to eat to maintain health, in general this is just an entertainment program, do not have to take it too seriously, the people can not distinguish the true from the false, after learning a few days of yin and yang surface and the truth and the truth of the scriptures, dare to prescribe medicine to themselves, traditional medicine is not so easy to learn and use, take dampness as an example, it is generally divided into dispelling wind, dispelling water, Clearing heat, and stomach, spleen, with medicine can: flat stomach dampness, clear stomach dampness, clear stomach dampness, and stomach dampness, clear heat and dampness, clear liver dampness, liver drain dampness, clear dampness, wind and dampness, and dampness, and dampness, regulate qi and dampness, how to treat, that is a thousand things, this is a wet word, of course, these knowledge is lucky, because it can be explained scientifically, moisture can be interpreted by cupping out blisters, so some traditional knowledge can still be accepted, and it is still lost. More often than not, some knowledge that cannot be explained by science can only be slowly lost. ”

Jiang Zhongxi said with emotion: "Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years." ”

Yucheng continued to explain: "Another example is coronary heart disease, Chinese medicine pulse, found that it may be liver qi disharmony, so he prescribed some decoction to calm the liver and nourish liver qi, which was criticized in the early years of the Republic of China, this is a typical case of unreliable Chinese medicine, heart disease, but you go to treat the liver?" There is a problem with the theory, and the prescription is effective? Pseudoscience, a hundred years later, today's medical scientists found that coronary heart disease arterial plaque is related to cholesterol, so the theory of what good cholesterol and bad cholesterol LDL-C appeared in society, nearly eighty percent of cholesterol in the human body is synthesized by the liver, it turns out that coronary heart disease is really related to the liver, nearly a hundred years have passed, when the new young people who took this case to spray the old Chinese medicine speechless have been wiped out, Chinese medicine is still inherited, the inheritance of Chinese medicine is not only the inheritance of culture, in the final analysis, it is actually the inheritance of faith, The development of traditional Chinese medicine has become a miasma, whose fault is it? When the whole people have lost their reverence for traditional Chinese medicine, then it will be ordinary people who will suffer. During the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the class rule in order to exterminate the Chinese spiritual culture, extinct Taoism, and vigorously promote Confucianism, so it gives people the impression that Confucianism has flourished for thousands of years, in fact, Confucianism only gradually began to develop after the Tang and Song dynasties, and the core of Chinese civilization before the Han and Tang dynasties was Taoism, and the continuation was called Taoism. ”

Yucheng smiled faintly and continued: "Why were the Han people of the Song Dynasty exterminated? When the pursuit of the imperial examination fame and material interests are supreme, the belief is abandoned and the Taoist system is abandoned, then the road is not blessed by the Han people, on the other hand, money and houses are never just needed, faith is, when the descendants of the dragon realize their divinity, they are not far from home. Is the radiance of motherly love divinity? Strictly speaking, it doesn't count, it's beast nature, instinct only, you see that the animals in the animal world have the nature of protecting their cubs, and they can support their parents who have no use value, this is divinity, the care and support of the disadvantaged, this is divinity, the bodhisattvas are in the world, and the gods have been far away. ”

Lin Zhongxi listened to the words that destroyed his three views, and the whole person seemed to be excited, these words were completely contrary to what he knew, but they were like an empowerment, and a word woke up the person in the dream.

After hearing this, Jiang Yuyan also had a new understanding of the royal ride, if it wasn't for the royal ride, would he think about these views? Will anyone teach? These views can't be learned from books, and this will be looked at again, where is this a womanizer?

Jiang Zhongxi said: "I heard the teachings of the divine doctor, I really benefited for life, and I don't hide it from the divine doctor, in fact, inviting the divine doctor to be a guest today is an important matter to discuss with you?" ”

The royal rider wondered, "Oh? The important thing? Let's start with it. With that, he drank saliva to moisten his throat.

Jiang Zhongxi said: "I want to marry my most beloved daughter to the divine doctor, I don't know what the divine doctor wants?" ”

Hearing this, the royal rider coughed for a while, and almost didn't cough up the water he had just drunk: "I'm sorry, this news is too sudden, and I didn't react for a while." ”

Jiang Yuyan said: "Dad, you are too hasty, you haven't asked for my opinion, how can you be like this." ”

Yu Cheng said: "Jiang Dong is an old man who wants to emulate Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, Yangmou, I just said before, Jiang Dong has learned and applied it so quickly." ”

Jiang Yuyan was unconvinced: "What kind of conspiracy? Is the conspiracy good, didn't you also say that Gao Panfu's second generation expects to get something for nothing? How did you become a conspirator when you came here? ”

Yu Cheng didn't speak and smiled, Jiang Zhongxi smiled: "Back then, Yuyan's mother objected to me abandoning my job and going to the sea to engage in business, but I had made up my mind, and then we divorced, Yuyan went abroad to study abroad at the age of twelve, and has been receiving a Western-style education. ”

Yu Cheng smiled: "Jiang Dongyan is serious, I think it's good!" ”

Jiang Zhongxi was pleasantly surprised: "So the divine doctor agrees with this matter?" ”

Without waiting for the royal rider to speak, Jiang Yuyan preemptively said, "Dad, I don't agree." ”

Jiang Zhongxi's face was a little embarrassed for a moment, but he didn't get angry, he was looking forward to the royal ride's reply.

Yu Cheng smiled, "I think this matter needs to be considered in the long run. ”

Jiang Zhongxi's face was a little lost, and the royal ride was telling himself euphemistically that he didn't agree. He also smiled and gave himself a round and said: "Originally, it was inconvenient for our older generation to interfere in the marriage of young people, but the rules left by our ancestors cannot be broken. ”

Jiang Yuyan said: "Dad, what age is this, now advocating freedom of marriage, the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders are feudal oppression, and they have long been outdated." ”

The royal rider still smiled and said nothing. The so-called freedom of marriage, isn't it a jungle society to live together? Because of the loss of faith, the current marriage is particularly fragile, is it better to have freedom of marriage? In fact, if you look at the current divorce rate, you will have the answer in your heart, do you still need to cite scriptures?
