Li Yan's eyebrows rose, and he had a strange feeling. The valve between heaven and earth opened, and bits of heaven and earth's energy turned into a trickle and continued to flow in.
True strength, qi and blood, mana, what requires the most understanding and skill is undoubtedly mana. Now after a day of hard work, he finally reopened the sea of consciousness, and the energy of heaven and earth can be accumulated here and converted into mana.
However, the external environment was not very friendly to cultivation, so Li Yan was not anxious and began to consider the next steps.
The first is the threat from Tao Daoren.
Through memory, he knew that this alchemist had recently promoted a "Pure Breath Pill" in Nanjing, which was claimed to be able to drive away illness and cure epidemics. It was highly sought after. However, the rare medicinal materials listed on the prescription were insufficient, so he traveled around to collect medicinal materials.
.
During the Jiajing Dynasty, or the entire Ming Dynasty, natural and man-made disasters occurred frequently, and epidemics were particularly serious. The outbreak was not just in one city, nor in one province, but in the entire southeast.
Therefore, if there is really a pill to cure the epidemic, it will definitely be a great achievement and will naturally attract the attention of Nanjing ministers.
Nanjing is the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Except that there is no emperor, it has an administrative structure that is exactly the same as Beijing. The grades and salaries of officials are exactly the same, but they are used to house officials who are idle for retirement or have been excluded. The power is far less than that of the six ministries in Beijing.
.
But then again, after all, the ranks are there, and sometimes they can still be transferred to the center. Nanjing officials like to stick together and form their own faction, fighting openly and secretly with Beijing. The two capitals are competing with each other, and it is not me who controls the situation of the court.
Drive you to the south, you drive me to the south
It was probably the attitude of "Thirty years to Hedong, thirty years to Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty", so when Tao Taoist praised Haikou, Nanjing's courtiers naturally wanted this achievement.
However, these officials were old and not gullible, so they recruited doctors from the capital, who were called assistants, to verify the truth.
All the doctors talked about it, but they were not optimistic about it, but they spoke vaguely, not wanting to offend the Taoist priest surnamed Tao. Only Li Shizhen came forward to give a strong rebuttal, refuting the elixir as worthless, and even stated that the epidemic qi was definitely not something that these elixirs could control.
suppress.
Tao Tao was so angry that he immobilized him with a "magic spell" and walked away, leaving everyone in awe and not daring to speak randomly.
Li Yan has always been broad-minded. What he cares about is not that the other party sent a female ghost to press on him, but that this person dares to boast so much. He doesn't know how long he has been deceived and how many people have been fooled and harmed. How can he tolerate it?
Waiting for Tao Taoist to come back, I have to do something.
The second is the next route to increase your reputation.
After the previous night's hard work, his basic attributes have changed drastically:
Wisdom: 14 (talented and intelligent, unforgettable, draw inferences from one instance)
Family background: 5 (born into a family of doctors, but doctors have a low status)
Luck: 20 (time will come and everything will go smoothly)
Achievement Points:
But the achievement points were also dropped in a hurry. One-third of the more than 20,000 achievement points were used up at once. If you want to hit the limits of the world, or even break through the limits and reach higher, you will undoubtedly need more.
If you use it this way, even if you accumulate a world of achievements, it won't last long, so you can't just go in and out, you have to improve your reputation.
Practicing medicine to treat illnesses and save people is undoubtedly the normal way.
In history, Li Shizhen became famous when she cured the son of King Zhu Houkun of Fushun in the next year, which made her medical reputation great. She was hired by another royal prince as the "Fengcizheng" of the palace, and was also in charge of the affairs of the good doctor's office.
Five years later, he was recommended to work in Tai Hospital and became Dr. Li.
Now he is just on the eve of the rise of his medical reputation. He may have cured many common people, but if he has not cured the disease, he will not be able to reach the upper echelons of the feudal society and his status will be low.
Li Yan wanted to change the status of doctors, but he knew very well that this concept formed through the ages could not be changed overnight.
During the Tang Dynasty, he promoted the status of craftsmen by passing the imperial examination and adding the skills that craftsmen were good at. Soon those outstanding craftsmen were promoted. Can it be done now?
"Studying medicine can't save the world, you have to buy a
Wearing Taoist robes"
Li Yan took out the money from the medicine box, weighed it, and found that Baicao Hall had paid off his salary, and even gave him more, and sent him away like a plague.
This was good. He quickly chose a ready-made clothing store and bought a Su-style hat with a hundred-column bristle, and then a set of fish belly white lake gauze Taoist robes.
He didn't change it immediately. The hot weather had already made his clothes dirty, so Li Yan chose a bathing place to wash away the dust of these days. He also ordered some food and wine, had a good meal, and talked about something.
After spending seventy-seven or eighty-eighty percent of my monthly salary, I put on my Taoist robe.
When he changed his appearance and returned to the street, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
He looked majestic and refreshed, and there was not a trace of sweat on his forehead even after walking in the summer. Such an aloof demeanor was really too dazzling in the crowd.
After Li Yan just took a shower, he looked in the mirror and found that he looked familiar, but he was indeed too handsome.
What is the concept of 18 points of appearance?
You must know that in the early Tang Dynasty, Li Yuanfang's physique was only 19 points, and he was already a martial arts wizard who was unique among ten thousand. With such a comparison, it is no wonder that with 18 points of appearance, he could even attract ghosts.
While the female ghost was still floating behind, some people came forward to talk. Some introduced themselves, some merchants sincerely invited them to banquets, and some maids, with their eyes wandering, introduced their own ladies, but they knew at a glance that they were not serious people.
Li Yan responded politely and declined all invitations.
After walking two blocks like this and being rejected seventeen or eighteen times, a middle-aged man who looked like a powerful servant appeared in front of him with a team of servants: "But is it in front of Divine Doctor Li?"
Li Yan stopped and said, "I cannot be called a miracle doctor. I am no longer the sitting physician of Baicao Hall. I wonder what I will do next?"
The noble servant smiled and said: "We are the servants of the sincere uncle's house, and on the uncle's order, we have come to invite Mr. Li to come for consultation. Baicao Hall does not know Mr. Li's medical skills, so it is their loss."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sincerity is the title of the famous Liu Ji and Liu Bowen. After Li Yan pondered for a while, he nodded and said: "In that case, please lead the way."
If the doctor with another appearance hesitated, the servant would be displeased, but the fact that this doctor agreed so smoothly made him very pleasantly surprised, and he said repeatedly: "Quickly lead the horse! Miracle Doctor, please mount the horse!"
Everyone quickly arrived at the Earl's Mansion in the south of the city, entered the mansion, and reached the atrium.
I saw Liu Shiyan, Liu Bowen's eleventh generation grandson, talking to a group of doctors.
"Who is this?"
Seeing Li Yan walking in, his eyes lit up and he took the initiative to greet him. After Hao Nu introduced him, he praised: "I have heard about the name of Li Yan, the miracle doctor of Baicao Hall. I never thought that he is so outstanding. He is so clear."
Shenxiu, the watch of banished immortals!"
Li Yan responded in a neither arrogant nor humble manner: "Uncle, I am overly flattering. I wonder who in the family is suffering from the disease?"
Liu Shiyan's tone became lowered: "She is my uncle's wife. I hope that Dr. Li will forgive me for being so presumptuous."
Li Yan's brows moved slightly, but before he could speak, an old doctor came over and said, "Uncle, I'm afraid there's something wrong with this doctor practicing medicine for your wife!"
Liu Shiyan frowned slightly: "Doctor Yan, what do you mean?"
The old doctor paused and said bluntly: "With his outstanding appearance, he is not suitable for consulting women."
Liu Shiyan was speechless.
Li Yan also knew that according to this era, what the other party said was indeed correct.
There is a saying in the "Hundred Questions on Women's Science" in the Southern Song Dynasty, "It is better to treat ten husbands than to treat one baby; it is better to treat ten babies than to treat one woman." Women are difficult to treat because some gynecological diseases are difficult to talk about.
, and because men and women are not close to each other, the ability of Chinese medicine to see, hear, inquire and understand will be hindered.
The Ming Dynasty was much more serious about etiquette than the Song Dynasty. All ladies could not leave the house and did not go out. After many women got sick, they could not be treated because they did not have enough contact with outsiders. They eventually died of pain and illness, which was too tragic to watch.
That's why it's so rare for a female doctor to talk about Yun Xian. Her book "Miscellaneous Notes on Female Doctors" has saved the lives of countless women.
As a result, later TV dramas adapted Tan Yunxian's experience into a palace love drama, and it was impossible to have a career without an emperor. The one who fell in love with her was Baozong, and the Tumubao God of War was whitewashed into a wise king who would rather die than surrender. Oh, that female screenwriter later appeared
He wrote another work called "Dream Record".
Can
Pity these great ancients for being treated so badly.
Let’s not talk about disgusting things. Tan Yunxian, the goddess doctor in Wuxi, South Zhili, is still alive in the Jiajing Dynasty today. He is already ninety years old. He will die of illness in six years. He lives to be ninety-six years old. He is really a good person.
There are good rewards, and of course Chinese medicine generally makes people live longer.
However, the social status of female doctors has not changed at all. They are generally called medicine women. They are on the same level as Taoist women, matchmakers, and dental women. They belong to the third aunt and the sixth wife. Women with good family tradition are not allowed to have contact with them.
Cheng Yibo's wife was seriously ill, so instead of going to Wuxi to consult Tan Yunxian or his successor, he would rather spend a lot of money to hire a male doctor in Nanjing. It's a weird logic, but it's the social custom.
The old doctor saw that Li Yan was too outstanding in appearance and was afraid that the gossip would spread and harm his group of people who also treated women, so he stepped in to stop him. Liu Shiyan looked at Li Yan's appearance and hesitated.
He is not worried about what will happen to this lady and his dying wife, but even if there is nothing, as long as this lady treats her illness, even if the questions are conveyed through the maid, the pulse is taken, the handkerchief is put on the wrist, and the fingers are
Maybe some servants will gossip and spread the word.
What people say is terrible!
But he and his wife have a deep relationship, and his wife's screams every day in bed are heartbreaking. I heard that this man prescribes medicine in Baicao Hall, and often cures diseases. Not long ago, he dared to refute the alchemist, and he has real talent and learning.
, and really couldn’t bear to give up.
Just as he was about to grit his teeth and give it a try, Li Yan had already spoken: "I have a method called 'pulse diagnosis with hanging thread,' which can solve this problem!"
