Xu Yang also smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He came from a later generation, so he naturally knew that the ancient tombs of the Eastern Han Dynasty were dug up this year, which also confirmed the dose of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At the same time, he also knew that the two ancients that Li Lao scolded most often were, one was Li Shizhen, and the other was Zhu Danxi.

Zhu Danxi's words are an academic dispute.

Li Shizhen, this is the real cheat.

In the hearts of the general public, among the traditional Chinese medicine of all dynasties, Li Shizhen's reputation is second only to Hua Tuo and Bian Que. When it comes to traditional Chinese medicine works, ordinary people can only name one "Compendium of Materia Medica".

But to tell the truth, in the eyes of Chinese medicine people, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" is really quite ordinary, and even quite disgusting it.

Why?

Because there are a lot of conjectures and superstitions in the book, such as pregnant women can't eat rabbit heads, otherwise the children born will have rabbit lips, and fish bones stuck in the throat, which can be burned into ashes with fishing nets and drunk with water to eliminate fish bones.

There is also the Lantern Festival when a lamp is stolen from the rich man's house and placed under the bed, which can cure infertility. And so on all kinds of mess, what kind of human, pig, what soul into medicine!

His "Compendium of Materia Medica" only summarized the materia medica of his predecessors, and at the same time recorded a large number of hearsay, even conjectures.

As soon as Li Shizhen's brain twitched, he dared to stuff anything into it, and he only recorded it, and he had never verified the medicines in it.

There are many bibliographies of Materia Medica, in the eyes of Chinese medicine people, the first place must be "Shennong's Materia Medica", "Compendium of Materia Medica" really can't be on the table, there are indeed some dry goods in it, but there are also a lot of messy home remedies.

So in that case, why do ordinary people only know the "Compendium of Materia Medica"?

This is mainly because Darwin once praised it, so in the modern Republic of China, many enlightened people began to praise the stinky feet of this book.

Although they oppose traditional Chinese medicine, they feel that traditional Chinese medicine is still a treasure trove, especially the Compendium of Materia Medica, which contains huge treasures.

Isn't this argument familiar, exactly the same as it is now? Go through the comments on the Internet that are black in traditional Chinese medicine, and they are all like this.

In later generations, the compiler of the textbook compiled the Compendium of Materia Medica and Li Shizhen into the textbook, and also said that Li Shizhen went through a lot of hardships, went deep into the mountains and old forests, and gave the predecessors errata one by one.

He's wrong!

Until now, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" has almost been reduced to the exclusive use of liars.

The kind of health care products that deceive people must say that the Compendium of Materia Medica records how this medicine is, and then what about it according to modern scientific pharmacological research...... Very combination of Chinese and Western.

In fact, Li Shizhen's greatest contribution is not the "Compendium of Materia Medica". His contribution is in the study of pulses, and the "Pinhu Pulse Studies" and "The Eight Pulses of the Strange Classics" are very good.

In addition to the blind compilation of the "Compendium of Materia Medica", another biggest problem is the research on ancient doses. Li Shizhen didn't even test the medicinal properties, let alone spend time researching the ancient dose.

So he slapped his brain again, and very simply thought that one or two in the past was one or two in the present. Well, all of a sudden, the dose in Zhongjing's ancient recipe dropped several times, theoretically reduced to one-fifth of the original formula. When actually used, the dose is only one-tenth of the original real amount.

Of course, it was not Li Shizhen who thought so, but a group of Chinese medicine practitioners in the Ming Dynasty at that time. Then why do you keep scolding Li Shizhen, hey, it's not because he is the most popular.

And he still has to run to repair the materia medica, what is the materia medica? It is the current pharmacopoeia, this is the dosage that needs to be determined, you get the dosage wrong, don't scold who you scold?

After the Ming Dynasty, Chinese medicine suddenly became lighter. This will not cause a big mistake, but it will not cure a critical illness.

So much so that by the late Ming Dynasty, the plague broke out. Chinese medicine people sadly found that the prescription of typhoid fever could not save people, and the prescription handed down by the medical saint was useless.

At this moment of despair, the TCM people embarked on a new path with great perseverance, developing and changing on the basis of Zhongjing Jing Fang, and at the same time deriving new theories, from which the school of current diseases emerged.

It's just that the mastery of the medical saint has long been dusted!

In the modern controversy between Chinese and Western medicine, Chinese medicine has completely lost the field of acute and severe diseases, and has become a well-known slow manzhong! Now it is even about to become health medicine.

That's why, true Chinese medicine doesn't like to hear the word "embrace modern science" with the times. Because there is a huge mountain of gold behind Chinese medicine, it is just covered with dust.

TCM should not look forward, but backward.

Li Lao only dug a few hoes on this golden mountain, and he was already like this. He treats acute and severe diseases, not only has a faster effect than modern medicine, but also has a much higher prognosis than modern medicine.

And Li Lao is the most typical supporter of the ancient Chinese medicine school, he learned typhoid fever, studied the law Zhongjing, and only used the six classics and eight outlines to dialectic. It is precisely because he can break the dose level that he has today's achievements.

Who said that pure Chinese medicine is not as good as Western medicine? Who said that it is necessary to keep up with the times and combine Chinese and Western medicine?

......

After Li Lao finished scolding Li Shizhen, he gradually calmed down, he suddenly turned his head and asked Xu Yang: "Since the ancient dose has been corrected, the pharmacopoeia ......?"

Before he finished speaking, Li Lao himself paused.

"Alas......" Xu Yang also sighed.

Although the ancient dosage has been errata, the Chinese medicine community today is ...... There have been few true Chinese medicine practitioners for a long time, and it has long been no real Chinese medicine practitioners.

Li Lao also sighed, his face showed a dejected look, he stood up, his figure also looked a little stiff, he said, "Let's go, the medicine is decoctioned." ”

Xu Yang stood up and poured the medicine in the two pots together, a total of about 1,000 ml.

It's 6 p.m.

Xu Yang first asked the patient to drink 300 ml, and two hours later, at about 8 o'clock in the evening, the patient suddenly had abdominal pain.

Xu Yangzun Li Lao meant, and asked the patient to take about 500 ml of medicinal juice, and the patient wanted to stool, but could not pull it out. It's just that the original abdominal distension like an urn has dissipated a lot at the moment, the abdominal distension is greatly relaxed, and the patient is greatly comfortable.

At 11 o'clock at night, Xu Yang gave the last of the medicinal juice to the patient.

At 2 o'clock at night, the patient's stool was black as sludge, extremely smelly, and was sandwiched with induration, lumpy feces, pus and blood, and a large bowel basin.

At this point, the patient finally felt comfortable, and after not eating for two days, she suddenly felt hungry and ate a small bowl of noodles.

From 6 o'clock in the evening to 2 o'clock in the morning, the abscess of appendicitis and intestinal obstruction for five days were cured. It takes eight hours to share and only one dose.

Faced with this achievement, which was enough to shock any medical worker, Xu Yang and Li Lao couldn't laugh at all.

It was already 2 o'clock in the morning, Li Lao and Xu Yang walked to the small courtyard of the farmhouse, and the two sat in the starry sky.

Li Lao lit another cigarette, he liked to smoke very much, almost never leaving his mouth, he swallowed the smoke, and said slowly: "If I have any experience to teach you, it must be the control of the poisonous medicine." ”

Xu Yang turned his head to look at Li Lao.

In the dark, a red star flashed in front of Li Lao's mouth, and he said: "The medicinal properties of each flavor of Chinese medicine are deviated, from this point of view, no medicine is not biased, no medicine is not poisonous." ”

"Some medicines are a little smaller, and almost everyone can use them, such as astragalus ginseng. Some drugs have a larger deviation, and the scope of application is very small, the most typical is toxic drugs. ”

"Aconite is just one of them, do you remember the dying patient with pulmonary heart disease that I treated before? I am a martial fire and a decoction, and I take it with the decoction, and this is the time when the aconite is the most toxic, and healthy people can't bear it. ”

But the patient, who had only one breath left, not only did not die, but was saved. This is because dying patients with heart failure are trapped by heavy cold in their bodies, and the great heat and poison of aconite is the mystery of its resurrection. ”

"If you want to use it on normal people, there is going to be a big problem. Therefore, the doctor must be good at controlling poisonous drugs, and when you really know how to control them, you will find that these drugs are miraculous when you use them. ”

"If you want to learn to control the poison, you must first taste it yourself, and you must keep increasing the dose, and you will not know how to use it until you have drunk it yourself. Don't be afraid of being poisoned, just detoxify after poisoning. Traditional Chinese medicine people have to learn to taste Shennong. ”

Xu Yang nodded seriously.

Li Lao put down the cigarette, turned his head and asked Xu Yang: "What happened when you didn't save people with my prescription? I know that you are from the provincial capital to the grassroots level, and it stands to reason that a young doctor like you is not qualified to participate in first aid." ”

Xu Yang's expression suddenly froze.
