Chapter 40: The Dragon's Bone
Tong Meimei's incident caused a lot of uproar, and even Xu Changshan, who usually doesn't pay much attention to social news, heard about it, he knew about the dispute in a casual conversation with a patient, because his baby grandson worked in the medical office, so Xu Changshan paid special attention to it.
"Chunliang, the matter of the cosmetology department of your hospital has nothing to do with you, right?"
"No, I'm not responsible."
"That's good, the medical office is also a place of right and wrong, you have to face those disgruntled patients all day long, if you feel too much pressure, I can talk to your Uncle Gao and ask him to help you change positions." The old man always wanted to take the opportunity to return his grandson to the orthodoxy of traditional Chinese medicine.
Xu Chunliang said: "You can rest assured about things at work, if I don't do well, I will tell Uncle Gao." ”
Xu Changshan realized that he might be in charge of it again, young people now like to be independent, and too much interference by the elders is easy to arouse their disgust, so they should be content, at least they have their grandchildren by their side.
Xu Changshan took a sip of tea: "I sorted out some recipes again, you go back and help me transcribe them." ”
"Okay, I'll write it out tonight."
"There's no hurry." Xu Changshan put down the teacup and moved his arm: "I'm going to go to Haizhou tomorrow." ”
Xu Chunliang hadn't heard his grandfather say before: "What are you doing there?" ”
"Go and see an old friend, back and forth for three days."
"Why don't I take a leave of absence to accompany you."
Xu Changshan laughed: "What? Don't worry about me? I'm older, but there's nothing wrong with my body. ”
Xu Chunliang has no objection to this, the old man pays attention to health preservation, although he is over the age of old, his waist is straight and his body is tough.
Almost every day Xu Chunliang came back, he had to help the old man transcribe the prescription, and he also understood that his grandfather trained him in this way, so that he could unconsciously memorize the formula, and the old man really took great pains to make himself study medicine.
After transcribing today's prescription, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, Xu Chunliang put the things back in their place, took out a book from the bookshelf, and planned to read the book for a while before going to sleep.
When he pulled out the book, one of the things he was holding in the book fell to the ground.
Xu Chunliang thought it was a bookmark, and bent down to pick it up, but it was a thin piece of bone, perforated, tied with a red rope, the red rope had faded, and it should be a year.
This thing is very common in Chinese medicine shops, that is, the bones of ancient creatures, known as dragon bones, and it is also a medicinal material in traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effect of calming the heart and calming the nerves, calming the liver and latent yang.
It should be that when Xu Changshan first read this book, he casually picked up a piece of keel and inserted it in the pages of the book as a bookmark.
When Xu Chunliang was about to insert the keel back into the book, his fingertips felt the surface of the keel uneven, although his perception was not as good as usual, but such an obvious touch still caught his attention.
Take the keel to the lamp and see that the surface of the keel is covered with text - oracle bones.
The earliest is that the goldsmith Wang Yirong found the text from the keel when he was grasping the medicine, before that, no one paid attention to it, and the common people regarded this thing as a kind of medicinal material.
Because of the age, the cracking of the oracle bone inscription has also become a specialized science, so far a total of about 4,500 words have been found, and there are more than 2,000 words that have not yet been cracked, and the relevant departments have even given an encouragement of 100,000 yuan for cracking a word.
What really caught Xu Chunliang's attention was the text above, although the text was incomplete, he could also see that it was a mantra related to cultivation.
Xu Chunliang was very curious, and looked through the other books on the shelves, but he didn't find a few in succession.
"Chunliang, haven't slept yet?" Xu Changshan saw that the light was still on in the study, and couldn't help but come over to take a look, in his eyes, Xu Chunliang was always a child, and it was always bad for young people to stay up late.
Xu Chunliang smiled: "That's sleeping, by the way, grandpa, I just found this thing from the book." He handed the keel over.
Xu Changshan took it and looked at it and said, "Keel! ”
"There's oracle on this."
Xu Changshan nodded, in fact, many years ago he found that there were oracle bones on it, these keels are still handed down from the ancestors, Xu Changshan found that there were oracle bones on it, and reported the matter to the cultural relics management department, and donated more than 1,000 pieces of oracle bones at home, so the state also issued him a certificate of honor.
"Does Grandpa recognize the words on it?"
Xu Changshan shook his head and said: "I'm not an archaeologist, and I don't have any research on oracle bone inscriptions. ”
"Do you have rubbing?"
"There are a few of them, and the purpose of the extension at that time was to leave a souvenir, and I almost forgot about it if you didn't mention it today."
Xu Changshan went to the bookshelf to look for it, and it took a while to find a few yellowed rubbings, about more than 100 words, Xu Chunliang opened it and took a look, and sure enough, it confirmed his speculation that these keels were recorded in the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon".
The existing "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon" is divided into two parts: "Su Wen" and "Lingshu", and the same is true of the era in which Xu Chunliang lived in the past, and it is now generally believed that "The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon" was not written at one time, and the author is not a person. Its pen should be in the Warring States period, and its individual chapters were written in the two Han Dynasty.
Xu Chunliang knows that the complete "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" should be composed of three parts, in addition to these two parts, there are also "Tianyang" chapters, "Su Wen" and "Lingshu" are to teach people how to cure diseases, and "Tianyang" chapters record the content of cowardice and strengthening, prolonging life, this part of the book will be written before the Spring and Autumn Period, and there is no concept of Huaxia at that time.
It is rumored that those who have mastered the "Heavenly Cultivation" chapter can achieve the best state of the human body's meridians through cultivation. It is rumored that the one who destroyed the "Tianyang" chapter is also a master of medical Taoism, and he feels that if everyone practices the "Tianyang" chapter and prevents problems before they occur, then there will be no need for doctors in this world, and only by destroying "Tianyang", "Su Wen" and "Lingshu" can play a real role.
There is a unique cultivation method in "Tianyang", that is, tracing back to the source, which can restore the human body's meridians to the initial state of rebirth, like a downtime and restart, which has an irresistible attraction for martial artists.
Xu Chunliang's current cultivation of the Tongtian Treasure Book is slow, and the fundamental reason is that his current body meridians have been growing and developing in this era for twenty-two years, that is to say, they have been affected by the surrounding environment for twenty-two years.
It's a pity that there are only three rubbings in total, adding up to one hundred and thirty-seven words, and these alone can't get a glimpse of the whole leopard. When asked about the whereabouts of the remaining keels, Xu Changshan was not very clear, at that time he contacted the cultural relics management department through an expert, and the expert was called Bai Mushan, who was a professor of history at Dongzhou Normal University at the time.
More than 20 years have passed since the donation, and he has not been in contact with Bai Mushan for a long time, so it is not clear whether he is still teaching at the university.
Old man Xu didn't know the preciousness of these keels, if he knew that these keels were engraved with the "Tianyang" chapter of the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", it was estimated that the old man would have to consider whether to donate it, and even if he donated it, he would have to expand all the words on it.
It's almost midnight, and the old man urges him to rest quickly, and he has to go to work tomorrow.
Xu Chunliang was still thinking about this while lying on the bed, "Heavenly Cultivation" can be said to be the origin of all Qi training, if he can collect all the content, it will be of great help to his cultivation of "Tongtian Treasure Book".
Picked up his mobile phone and searched for Bai Mushan and his person, with the Internet, it was too easy to investigate a person's information.
According to the data, Bai Mushan, male, 55 years old, is a well-known historian and paleographer in China, and currently works in the Department of History of Nanjiang Normal University.
There are also photos of him on the Internet, he looks much younger than his actual age, and he looks very handsome and elegant, and he must visit him in the provincial capital when he finds time.
