Chapter 41: Ancient Medical Cases

Yesterday's recommendation just reached 200. Today's third update, please recommend it for collection. Now this book has dropped to the twelfth place on the list of new books by contracted authors, and it almost fell off the list.

Although it has been useless for ten years, Han Peacock feels that his control of the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag has become smoother. Perhaps after ten years of warming up, the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag has been completely controlled by him, right?

With this understanding, Han Peacock no longer cares. After all, this is a peaceful era. This thing is an authentic battle magic weapon, but it is almost useless now, and it will die in the face of light, no matter how powerful it is.

, Han Peacock also didn’t dare to expose it.

Maybe he himself is not afraid of being remembered, but his family and friends are not. It seems that he will have to keep a low profile in the future. It is better not to use this thing.

Han Kongque thought about the possibility of being together with Zhou Meiren in the future. The heartache that he had planned to completely give up on Zhou Meiren in the past few days was much lessened. Thinking about it, he suddenly felt refreshed.

Although it was already very late, already past four in the morning, Han Kongque was even more energetic. Since he was not sleepy, Han Kongque directly picked up the medical book and started reading it.

This medical guide is a manuscript from the late Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, medical skills were considered a secret skill, and it was a high-level skill, so it was recorded on paper and kept well.

You must know that in that era, even paper was a very precious thing, and this kind of thing must only be owned by the nobles.

And the things that were cherished and preserved by the nobles must have their value. Regardless of who wrote this manuscript, the Cai Lun paper alone is a rare thing.

This book is definitely made of Cai Lun paper, but the book is actually so well preserved. The paper is bright and shiny, as if thousands of years of time have not been lost on it.

This makes Han Peacock feel very magical. If it weren't for the records inside and the texture of the paper, it would appear that this is an ancient book from the Eastern Han Dynasty. If it wasn't for careful study, Han Peacock wouldn't believe it.

Real ancient books.

It is not difficult at all to sell such a rare book for 10,000 yuan each, and this medical guide is a thick one.

Han Kongque put on his gloves and flipped through it carefully. After a little calculation, he calculated that the book had more than 300 sheets and 600 pages.

Although there are many pages, there is not much recorded in them. The book is copied in block letters, and the handwriting is only as big as a peanut. There is not much handwriting on the pages of a 32-karat book.

Although the whole book does not have a lot of words, it took a lot of effort to write such a thick book.

This was written one by one with a brush, and every word was written quite neatly, even in modern printing.

But from this, we can also know that the author is careful, otherwise the whole book has 30,000 to 40,000 words, and every word cannot be so neat.

After studying the handwriting, I found that the calligraphy is very good and has a good foundation. However, it turns out that Han Kongque did not study calligraphy in depth, so he could not see the reason.

As long as the block letters are regular, they all look the same to a layman, so he only knows that the handwriting is good, but there is really nothing he can do about how good it is and what characteristics it has.

Therefore, he had no way of identifying whether this was the authentic work of the Eastern Han Dynasty's grass saint Zhang Zhi.

If you want to identify this, you can only deduce whether it is Zhang Zhi's original block script by finding other authentic works by Zhang Zhi for comparison.

However, Han Kongque didn't have Zhang Zhi's calligraphy in his hands. Even if he searched some on the Internet, they were just his cursive scripts, which were almost incomparable with the regular script, so Han Kongque couldn't deduce it.

Since it cannot be determined whether it belongs to Zhang Zhi, then the value of this book cannot be determined. Since it cannot be determined, it cannot be sold for the highest price. In this way, this book cannot be sold recently.

If this is sold as an authentic work by Zhang Zhi, the buyer will definitely refuse. If it is uncertain, people will naturally not take it for granted.

If it were to be sold as an ordinary ancient book, Han Kongque himself was not willing to do so. If there was evidence in the future to prove that this was Zhang Zhi's original block script, he would suffer a huge loss.

Han Kongque turned to the first page. It seemed to record a case of treating a cold. The handwriting was in block letters. Although it was ancient traditional Chinese characters, Han Kongque could still read it smoothly without even guessing.

This first case is the treatment process of typhoid fever. Before the Tang Dynasty, colds were called typhoid fever. This disease was the most popular in ancient times and modern times.

Han Kongque flipped through more than a dozen sheets, which contained three consecutive cases of typhoid fever. The treatment methods used above were those in Treatise on Febrile Diseases written by Zhang Zhongjing, the genius doctor of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Han Kongque had read Zhang Zhongjing's Treatise on Febrile Diseases, and knew Zhang Zhongjing's views and theories on this disease, as well as what drugs he used to treat it.

So after looking at the case, he deduced that the ancient doctor who prescribed the medicine must be a supporter of the typhoid sect.

If this book is an authentic work by Zhang Zhi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, then it is entirely possible that he recorded some of Zhang Zhongjing's medical prescriptions.

Zhang Zhongjing, Mingji, known as the medical sage in history, was born in Nieyang, Nanyang County (now Zhangzhai Village, Rangdong Town, Deng County, Henan Province, also known as Yang City, Henan, Nannan). He was born in Yuanjia, Emperor Huan of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

During the Xing period (about 150-154 AD), he died in the last years of Jian'an (about 215-219 AD). According to legend, he was promoted to be a filial and honest person and served as the prefect of Changsha.

Zhang Zhi, whose birth year is unknown, died in the third year of Emperor Xian's reign of the Han Dynasty (about 192 AD), so the two men lived in similar eras, and it can be said that Zhang Zhongjing's medical books were recorded by Zhang Zhi.

During the Han Dynasty, Zhang Zhongjing's medical skills were very powerful. At that time, many people in his family died of external diseases, so he vowed to understand this disease, so he collected many medical books at that time and combined them with his own

Based on his experience, he wrote the book "Treatise on Febrile Diseases".

In this book, Zhang Zhongjing divides the human body's defense system into six levels. He discusses the problems that will arise in these six defense systems when cold evil attacks, and talks about how to solve them.

The six defense levels distinguished by Zhang Zhongjing are very appropriate. Now we say that this is a systematic division method. Moreover, the prescriptions Zhang Zhongjing gave are also very insightful. It should be said that as long as these prescriptions are used properly,

Once verified, the effects often leave the doctor who prescribes the prescription dumbfounded. This is true, and everyone who practices traditional Chinese medicine feels it.

Because the attack was caused by cold evil, Zhang Zhongjing chose to use pungent and warm medicines (ephedra, cassia twig, etc.) at the beginning of the treatment, that is, to make everyone sweat. What Zhang Zhongjing meant was, just

It dissipates the cold evil from the body surface.

In fact, we still use this method to this day, especially in rural areas. Sweating is the most common method when you have a cold. Han Kongque's mother used this method to treat colds when he was a child.

Drink ginger soup or something, cover it with a few quilts, and wait until you are sweating profusely, and you will be almost healed. This method of treating colds is very common in China.

Zhang Zhongjing used this method to treat diseases more than 1,800 years ago, and it went deeper. If the first line of defense on the body surface did not spread out, then there would be five more lines of defense behind it.

This method has been used until the Qing Dynasty. In fact, it started before the Qing Dynasty. People discovered that the dispersion of Xin Wen could not solve all the problems. Some people's illness became serious as soon as they took ephedra and other medicines, so the Wen Wen syndrome appeared.

They believe that it is not only cold evil that attacks the human body, but also warm evil.

This warm evil has its own characteristics. It should be treated with pungent and cool methods to relieve the symptoms. Do not use ephedra, but use forsythia, honeysuckle, and other cold medicines to treat it. The results have also achieved certain results. We are still doing this now.

Many Chinese patent medicines, such as Forsythia tablets, etc., use this principle to treat colds.

But modern doctors are often unable to treat even a single cold. Most of them just prescribe medicine according to prescriptions. Regardless of whether it is warm or cold, as long as they have a cold, they just give them cold medicine.

Forsythia tablets, which treat warm evil, are used to treat the invasion of cold evil, that is, typhoid fever, but they are not effective. Many Western medicine doctors are not aware of such a simple theory of traditional Chinese medicine. This can not but be said to be a

joke.

Han Kongque had read a lot of literature, so he knew that both theories of warm and cold were actually correct. However, starting from the Qing Dynasty, the dispute between cold and warm in the history of traditional Chinese medicine began. Those who said that febrile disease was a febrile disease were nonsense.

The school of thought said that the method of fatally trapping typhoid fever was harmful to people. In short, the attack was very serious and the scale was spectacular. If you look through the medical books of the past, you can see many relics of the debate at that time.

But no matter how they argue, it is a fact that colds have become one of the important diseases that threaten people, and it is also a fact that there is still no effective treatment.

Because Chen Rui would catch a cold every winter, Han Kongque read a lot of medical classics just to relieve her pain, but there was no good way. Now he found out that this medical book has some tips for treating colds.

The method, of course, is to study it carefully.

Nowadays, it has become normal to take injections and take medicines in hanging bottles. A lot of medicines are used, but they do not cure the disease at all. It is not too much to say that those doctors care about human life. The extreme distrust of doctors by modern people has become more and more widespread.

Although modern people are not short of money, they take injections and medicines, but they do not cure the disease. As long as they catch a cold, no matter whether they are in good or weak constitution, they will suffer for ten and a half days. This makes Han

Peacock also became distrustful of modern Western medicine, so he studied how ancient people treated colds.

Because of his good memory, Han Kongque could still understand some of the prescriptions in this medical guide, but it was not so easy for ancient doctors to prescribe medicine.
