When you say that you have lice on your body, they praise you, not scold you, do you believe it?

There are really people who believe it, and the person who believes it is of course not Ah Q, but a celebrity of Wei and Jin. The Wei and Jin dynasties were a wonderful transition between the strong men and the Tang Dynasty in Chinese history.

For example, Liu Ling, one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest and the most famous drunkard in Chinese history, carried the coffin and drank drunk and dreamed of death, claiming to bury him on the spot where he was drunk. He was drunk and often sat naked in the room, some people really couldn't look at it and asked two sentences, Liu Ling sneered at each other: "Heaven and earth are my house, and the house is my pants, why do you enter my pants?"

Heaven and earth are the vaults where I live, and the house is the clothes and pants I wear, why did you run into my pants? Do you talk like this, if others say this, you must be an old hooligan, but Liu Ling is different, he is a well-known and cultured person, which shows that ******** has existed since ancient times.

In contrast to Liu Ling's indulgent drinking and naked appearance, Wang Xizhi's east bed is full of belly. Jin Taiwei Xi Jian wanted to choose a son-in-law among the sons of Prime Minister Wang Dao, which was also a political marriage between ancient nobles. Taiwei's daughter is a famous beauty, and the sons of the Wang family are all reserved when they hear the news that Taiwei has come to the house, only Wang Xizhi doesn't care, opens his clothes and exposes his belly, and sits on the east bed to eat snacks. As a result, Mrs. Xi chose Wang Xizhi, thinking that he was a good son-in-law, so I don't know if Miss Xi is happy?

Wang Xizhi's freedom is more restrained than Liu Ling's wildness, after all, Liu Ling exposed his whole body and Wang Xizhi only exposed his belly. So what's the deal with the aforementioned lice?

The lice in the Wei and Jin dynasties were very famous, and the most famous was the lice on Wang Meng, the minister of the former Qin Dynasty. It is said that when Wang Meng was not in his early years, he met the general Huan Wen who entered the customs, and talked eloquently while catching lice from his body, as if there was no one around. This is the allusion of "talking about lice", but at that time, there were more than Wang Meng who talked about lice, and a large number of celebrities in the Wei and Jin dynasties could be caught by examining historical materials.

In addition to the celebrities of the Wei and Jin dynasties, there is another great man in modern times who also left a similar allusion, that is, Mr. *. According to the American journalist Snow's recollection, when he and * were talking in the Yan'an cave, they often saw Chairman Mao unbuttoning his belt to catch lice, and his expression remained unchanged as if no one was around.

Later, some people seconded this legend, saying that Chairman Mao also had the demeanor of the Wei and Jin dynasties, but the truth may not be. The conditions in Yan'an during the Anti-Japanese War were well known, and it was not worth making a fuss about Chairman Mao's clothes with lice, and it would be impossible for the great leader to have lice on him after the founding of the country, otherwise the people of the whole country would not be able to agree. However, the celebrities of the Wei and Jin dynasties were different, and the above-mentioned people talked about were high-ranking officials and aristocrats, and the living conditions and hardships had nothing to do with it, and the luxury of the nobles in the Wei and Jin dynasties was famous.

Someone said again that this was a natural and frank atmosphere among scholars and doctors at that time, and the demeanor of the Wei and Jin dynasties. This may sound plausible, but it's problematic when examined carefully. The traditional Chinese aristocracy is different from the French aristocracy in the Middle Ages, there is no habit of using perfume to cover up body odor without bathing, and they are very health-conscious. The famous health work "Huang Tingjing" was written in the Wei and Jin dynasties, and it is unreasonable to say that the celebrities at that time did not advocate health preservation and did not pay attention to hygiene. Then again, whether there is a demeanor has a hairy relationship with whether there are lice? If you want to be graceful, there is a way.

So what's going on? Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding! Lice have nothing to do with demeanor, but with another thing, which is called Wushisan.

Wushisan is a kind of medicine made by grinding the five-colored stone resin as the bait, which is said to be immortal after taking it, and was very popular in the Wei and Jin dynasties. Among the nobles and celebrities, if you don't take Wushisan, you will be embarrassed to go out and meet people! Is there anyone who has taken Wushisan to achieve immortal paths? There is not a single case in the history books, but why did people still take it at that time? Because Wushisan is indeed effective.

After taking Wushisan, the whole body is hot, but he does not sweat profusely, so he wears thin clothes in cold weather, and his big sleeves are fluttering and looks very chic. In addition, there is also a medicinal effect, that is, after long-term use, the skin of the whole body will become very delicate, and the fine skin and tender flesh are very beautiful and sensitive. Now the problem comes, that is, the clothes cannot be washed often, and try not to wear new clothes.

The older the satin, the softer and more comfortable it is, and it is best worn by those who have been taking Goshisan for a long time. In ancient times, the laundry was washed with soaphorn pulp, and the laundry after washing was very hard, and it felt similar to cardboard, and it took a while to become soft again, so it was very uncomfortable to wear on the body, so the celebrities who had taken Wushisan for a long time could only try not to wash their clothes, and after a long time, there were lice in the clothes. During the Wei and Jin dynasties, it became fashionable to wear light old clothes when talking about Qing Dynasty.

So to say that a celebrity has lice on his body, that is, he wears soft, infrequently washed clothes, that is because he has taken Wushisan, and taking Wushisan for a long time is not only fashionable but also respected by the world, so to say that people have lice is to praise people rather than scold. That's the point.

Wei and Jin celebrities took Wushisan, in fact, there is a secret effect, which is the main reason why celebrities at that time flocked to this very expensive prescription, as for the effect of Wushisan - Professor Qu did not say it in class.

The above content was told by Mr. Qu Zhengbo, a famous professor of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, in class, and when he heard this allusion to lice, the students laughed, and Meixi couldn't help laughing. This is not an ancient literature and history class, but a Chinese medicine class, but Professor Qu's lecture is very interesting, and the boring classical theory of Chinese medicine is full of fun by him, often interspersed with various literary and historical allusions. Professor Qu has a famous point of view: Chinese medicine cannot be learned only as a medical skill, and it is impossible to really learn Chinese medicine well if you do not understand the traditional cultural connotation of each era of China. Meixi likes to listen to old music lectures the most, and she has never missed a single section.

......

In 2008, not long after the Beijing Olympic Games, the day after listening to Professor Qu's lecture on the allusion of Wushisan, Mei Xi, a second-year student at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, learned about the most important effects of Wushisan, and the place was in Professor Qu's prescription laboratory.

Qu Lao was furious, and yelled at his granddaughter Qu Yimin: "Who told you to give Zhang Xiaoning the recipe of Wushi San? This kind of prescription will be a big disaster if it falls into his hands, if I don't know that he can't produce all the medicinal materials on a large scale, and I really want to beat you up, you will be too capable of causing trouble...... Studying medicine is the heart of helping the world, not being reckless!"

The current Qu Yimin's beautiful eyes are shy and timid, and I see Meixi on the side who is very pitiful, but the old man Qu doesn't eat this set, and she still can't raise her head when she scolds, she can only pout and say weakly: "Didn't grandpa say it himself, if possible, I want to restore the legendary thousand-year-old prescription as much as possible for research, figure out the efficacy of the medicine, and infer the medical situation and social life style at that time." ”

Qu Zhengbo was still angry: "I said this, but does it have anything to do with Wushisan? You gave Zhang Xiaoning the recipe of Wushisan, but you didn't tell me, if this kid hadn't called me today and asked me where I could collect red stone resin? I didn't know that he got the prescription and took a lot of red stone resin from my laboratory." ...... This unsuccessful thing, has the ability to make a fortune, has the ability to pack those second wives, and has the ability not to take medicine!"

Professor Qu's words were a little mixed, Qu Yimin blinked his eyes and didn't understand too much for a while, and asked very strangely: "Grandpa, what do you mean? He is going to take the prescription of Wushi San, why do you scold him for ******, there is more than one, is this true?"

Qu Zhengbo: "How do I know if it's true or fake? What kind of person is he, what kind of five stone scatter is good? Either take it out and use it for yourself." Do you know the effect of the medicine?......" The old man stopped talking at this, and then snorted angrily: "I don't need your help here, it's enough to have Meixi, you go and go about your own business, I'm angry when I see you now." ”

Qu Yimin was not very afraid of her grandfather, and still asked along the way: "Wushi is so famous in the legend, what is the effect of the medicine, grandpa, you must have matched, tell me okay?"

The old man glared: "What are the girls asking about? That thing is ****?......! Come on, don't you still have classes in the afternoon?" Qu Yimin's face couldn't help blushing when she heard this, she stuck out her tongue and turned away.

When Qu Yimin was leaving, she quietly gave Mei Xi a look, which meant that Mei Xi understood, that is, what kind of medicinal properties were Wushi San? She asked Mei Xi to ask the old man to understand. She didn't believe that the effect of this ancient prescription was as simple as the word "****", otherwise her grandfather would not have spent a lot of effort to collect rare and rare medicinal materials such as red stone resin, and there would definitely be a fame. She showed off the prescription to the senior for a while, and the senior also took away the red stone grease collected by her grandfather, she must find out what was going on.

That Zhang Xiaoning is a bachelor's and master's student brought by Qu Zhengbo's old man in his early years, and he is in his early Chinese New Year's Eve, but his career is very successful. Zhang Xiaoning studied traditional Chinese medicine, but what he is best at is marketing, and his company sells a variety of nutritional and health products, which are mainly divided into two categories: one is beauty, weight loss, and breast enhancement products for women, and the other is for men.

Zhang Xiaoning is a general manufacturer, he provides these products to sell all over the country, all kinds of advertisements are also overwhelming, I believe that everyone in front of the computer can often see it. The advertising words of those products are very shocking, either the reappearance of the secret recipe of the ancient court or the latest biotechnology achievements, this product has the latest beauty active factors, that product is developed by ancient secret traditions, etc., etc., in fact, they are all Zhang Xiaoning's prescriptions for opening and nourishing, plus some hormone Western medicines, and put on different packaging with attractive advertisements to sell out.

Although it has been seven or eight years since Zhang Xiaoning graduated, he has always respected the old man Qu Zhengbo very much, and he runs to the old man's house with expensive gifts during the New Year's holidays. But Professor Qu has not been very pleasing to Zhang Xiaoning, and he has never confiscated the gifts, but as the saying goes, he doesn't hit a smiling person, and his students' attitude is very respectful, so he is always embarrassed to break off contacts.

Recently, I heard that Zhang Xiaoning was pursuing his baby granddaughter Qu Yimin, and Qu Zhengbo looked at Zhang Xiaoning more and more unpleasantly, so he heard that Zhang Xiaoning took the recipe of five stone scatter from Qu Yimin's hands, and found that he found that his laboratory collection of red stone grease was a lot less, so he was furious.

Zhang Xiaoning has seen this person Meixi, he is not tall, he is always very shrewd and capable, he is a delicate person, and everyone he sees in Professor Qu's laboratory smiles and greets him, even if he is a second-year undergraduate who does odd jobs. But Meixi doesn't like this person, and she can't tell why, is it because this person is too shrewd or too rich, or has she heard that he is pursuing Qu Yimin?

Meixi was able to do odd jobs in Professor Qu's laboratory to earn some living expenses, which was introduced by the counselor Qu Yimin, Qu Yimin is cheerful and beautiful, and boys of Meixi's age are easy to have a hazy impression of her, so it is normal that they do not have a good impression of Zhang Xiaoning.

While Meixi was thinking wildly, he listened to Professor Qu and said: "Boy, you are tall and sharp-legged, move a stool and change the top drawer to the bottom, tear off the label of red stone grease, and replace it with a label of cold guano crystals and attach it." "That's a good idea, the whole two walls of the laboratory are cabinets, and the cabinets are densely packed with small drawers, I'm afraid there are thousands, and it's really not easy for others to find a different place and a label.

When the drawer was being emptied, Meixi had not forgotten Qu Yimin's instructions with her eyes, and she was thinking about how to get out the old man's words. I'm afraid it won't work to ask directly, I have to prescribe the right medicine, and first pay attention to what the old man likes to hear.
