Chapter two hundred and forty-eight medicine to the Tao
Zhang Zhongjing has been looking a little haggard recently.
Zhang Zhongjing has never seen him again since the pottery merchant snatched "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases" from his hands, and he was also detained in Jinling City by the pottery merchant.
It was said to be a detention, but the pottery merchant did not make Zhang Zhongjing unhappy in his life. Not only did he provide him with delicious food and drink, but he also did not restrict his personal freedom. However, whenever Zhang Zhongjing wanted to go out, there would always be two schoolmates.
The school officials in charge of the government followed him all the time.
Zhang Zhongjing was very depressed about this, but there was nothing he could do about it.
But at least he was not imprisoned by the pottery merchant, which can be considered a great blessing among misfortunes.
In a blink of an eye, several months passed before I knew it.
During this period of time, Zhang Zhongjing stayed in Jinling City eating and drinking well, and when he had nothing to do, he went out for a stroll with the tails arranged by the two pottery merchants.
Over the past few months, Zhang Zhongjing has gained a deep understanding of the prosperity and excitement of Jinling City.
It seems that the Danyang County Sheriff is not completely useless.
Jinling City is so prosperous that it is impossible to tell that it is a city in troubled times. It looks like a peaceful and happy time everywhere.
Before Zhang Zhongjing came to Jinling City, he had been living in seclusion in his hometown of Nieyang County, Nanyang County. Although Nanyang County was now captured by Liu Biao, it had been under the rule of Yuan Shu before Zhang Zhongjing left.
Although Nanyang County was the most populous county in the world at the end of the Han Dynasty, under Yuan Shu's governance, it was not wealthy and the people's livelihood was not abundant. This was because Yuan Shu was vain, greedy and selfish, did not practice laws, and used money and plunder as capital.
, the extravagant appearance is endless, and the people in the thirty-seven counties of Nanyang County regard Yuan Shu as a disaster.
Although the pottery merchant is not a saint, compared to Yuan Shu's greedy and selfish behavior, he is obviously much better. At least judging from the governance and people's livelihood of Jinling City, this person is much better than Yuan Shu.
Every time he sees the real scene of Jinling City and thinks about Prince Taiping's current reputation in the world, Zhang Zhongjing's heart will calm down unconsciously.
Because of this, Zhang Zhongjing decided to forgive the pottery merchant for his disrespectful behavior towards him.
After all, judging from his current achievements in Jinling City, Tao is considered a good boy.
The market in Jinling City is full of people. There are sellers of vegetables, meat, fruits, rice and beans almost everywhere. Of course, there is no shortage of book sellers selling slips and bamboo sticks with written words.
Zhang Zhongjing has an extraordinary background. Although he is a doctor, his family is undoubtedly a noble family in Nanyang County. He has been studying and reading since he was a child. In addition to medicine, he is also very good in other aspects. He writes books every day.
Never leave your hands, sincerity can be said to be tireless.
Now that he saw a miscellaneous book seller in the market, Zhang Zhongjing's love of reading was immediately seduced again.
He knelt down and fiddled with the book seller's bamboo basket, asking, "How did you sell it?"
The old man selling the book chuckled and pointed his finger: "The selling price of the assembled bamboo slips is five baht for a handful of loose bamboo slips!"
Zhang Zhong nodded and secretly said that the price was not cheap, and it did not insult Sven.
"Is there any good medical book? Let me take a look." What Zhang Zhongjing wanted to read most was about his own profession.
The old man selling the book suddenly became energetic when he heard this: "Yes! Of course there is! This is the product that I just asked someone to sell recently. It is said that it is a masterpiece created by Zhang Ji, a famous doctor in Nanyang, who spent many years and tasted all kinds of herbs.
"Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases"! It is truly a rare medical classic. I only have three volumes left here. It is out of date!"
When Zhang Zhongjing heard this, his vision suddenly went dark and he almost fainted.
Little beast named Tao! Zhang will never forgive you! Never!
…
…
Zhang Zhongjing rushed straight to the governor's house in a hurry.
When he arrived at the governor's house, he loudly demanded to meet the pottery merchant, and threatened that if he did not see the pottery merchant today, he would sit and die in front of his house.
Pei Qian hurriedly reported Zhang Zhongjing's intention to commit suicide to the pottery merchant.
The potter didn't take it seriously.
He had a big thing in hand at the moment and was writing a letter to Tao Qian, but he still asked Pei Qian to bring Zhang Zhongjing in.
The content of the letter the pottery merchant wrote to Tao Qian this time was extremely formal, as it related to the safety of the entire Xuzhou.
About Cao Song.
In the third year of Chuping in history, that is, this year, Tao Qian beheaded Que Xuan of Xiapi, merged his troops, and responded to Yuan Shu's troop deployment to intimidate Yuan Shao. However, he was defeated by the combined forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
The attack was defeated.
After Tao Qian broke up with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, Cao Cao took advantage of the victory and sent troops to Xuzhou. The blood of the massacre in Xuzhou flowed into a river, killing hundreds of thousands of men and women in Surabaya, and the water stopped flowing. The next year, Tao Qian wanted to take revenge.
Cao Cao's behavior was to send Qingqi to hunt down Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, who had defected to Cao Cao, and beheaded him at the border.
But now, as the pottery merchant traveled back to this era, history has changed. Because of the pottery merchant's advice, Tao Qian did not attach himself to Yuan Shu, but instead turned to Yuan Shao to befriend him, thus avoiding the Xuzhou Army's conflict with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
A conflict occurs.
But the pottery merchant was still worried. What he was worried about was mainly the location where Cao Song currently lived.
Cao Song's whole family currently lives in Langya County, but Langya County is under the control of Zang Ba and Tao Qian has no control over it.
Now that time has passed more and more, Cao Song is very likely to be taken to Yanzhou by Cao Cao at any time. Although he knows that Tao Qian will not send people to kill Cao Song this time, in order to make sure, Tao Shang still has to write
Xin seriously reminds Cao Song of the problem.
The Tao family is currently in a prosperous development stage. In any case, the pottery merchant feels that he should not have anything to do with the Cao family at this juncture.
Just after finishing the letter, the pottery merchant saw Pei Qian leading Zhang Zhongjing in before he could rub his eyes.
Zhang Zhongjing's face was full of sorrow and anger, and his tears seemed to be streaming down his face. The potter was very surprised by what he was doing, and Monk Zhang Er was confused.
"Doctor Zhang, how have you been living in Jinling City these days? Are you still getting used to it?" the pottery merchant asked him with concern.
Zhang Zhongjing's face was full of sorrow, and he nodded bitterly and said: "Jinling City is very prosperous and comfortable, just like a fairyland outside the world."
"In that case..." Tao Shang said with a smile: "Why is that miracle doctor's expression so sad? What made you sad?"
Zhang Jiyang sighed and said helplessly: "The reason Zhang is sad is because he discovered something strange when he was shopping in Dongshi just now..."
"What's the matter?" The potter's eyelids twitched a little.
Zhang Zhongjing stared at the pottery merchant with a complex expression, and said resentfully: "Zhang discovered that after Zhang resigned and went into seclusion, he worked hard for several years on "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", and now it is in the basket of an old man setting up a stall in the market.
, I can find a few volumes..."
The potter whistled and looked away. He suddenly seemed to be very interested in the carvings on the pillars in the hall.
"Master Taiping, why do you teach me?"
Tao Shang laughed and said, "Mr. Zhang, may I ask you what was your original intention in creating the Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases?"
Zhang Ji raised his eyebrows and said: "Of course it is to understand the diseases of the people in the world and save the suffering people who are troubled by the diseases."
Tao Shang clapped his hands vigorously and said, "That's it! Tao helped you carry forward the "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" and used your name Zhongjing. Things were done and his reputation became famous. Killing two birds with one stone.
It’s a good thing, why not do it?”
Zhang Zhongjing was stunned when he heard this, secretly thinking that this was indeed the case.
But he quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, you are lying! "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" is the result of Zhang's vomiting blood for several years. If you publish it to the world so casually, wouldn't it make the world's doctors embarrassed?
To learn all my true teachings? It’s really a shame for me!”
The potter frowned.
People in this era are very fond of hiding their secrets. Whether it is creation or invention, they hide it every day, for fear that others will learn from it and lose their jobs in the art industry. Little do they know that this is really a petty attitude.
Real academics require openness, communication, and everyone working together to learn from each other's strengths, in order to promote the prosperity and development of the art industry as a whole.
No matter how selfless Zhang Zhongjing is, he cannot escape from vulgarity after all.
No, you still have to hammer and hammer.
"Old Zhang..."
"Huh?" Zhang Zhongjing was stunned, as if he was dissatisfied that the pottery merchant called him that.
"Although you treat illnesses and save people, and are highly respected, Tao still has to criticize you for your tacky mentality of hiding something private. You are a bit petty. Sit down and I will tell you a few stories about doctors. You can learn from them.
Look at people’s hearts.”
Although Zhang Zhongjing was not convinced, he still sat down angrily and said dissatisfied: "No matter how you talk, you still can't break the knot in my heart that I lost the "Treatise on Injury and Miscellaneous Diseases"!"
The potter didn't care what Zhang Zhongjing said, he just started to say to him word by word: "A long time ago, probably during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, no, it should be many, many years before that, there was a foreign doctor
, His name is Bethune..."
…
…
"In this way, the great foreign doctor Lao Bai passed away. He was infected by the plague while treating soldiers, but he still insisted on checking the pulse of each soldier and taking medicine. Until the last moment of his life, he did not sacrifice his life for the nation.
But he did not distinguish between any country or ethnic group. He only used a very noble spirit to save every life in front of him. He even left his wife who was far away in his hometown and was waiting for him to return because he was curing diseases and saving people... What a great doctor.
, enough to become a role model for doctors for generations to come." Tao Shang ended the story with an affirmative sentence.
Zhang Zhongjing was already crying profusely at this moment. Although he was middle-aged, his emotions were still delicate and rich, and his tear ducts were also quite developed.
The pottery merchant took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve, handed it to Zhang Zhongjing, and comforted him: "Don't cry, Old Zhang. Look, doctors can actually be so great. It doesn't necessarily require many brilliant methods to cure diseases and save people.
You don’t necessarily need a glorious reputation, but as long as you have an exquisite heart that is willing to save the world with great perseverance, it is enough.”
Zhang Zhongjing took off his handkerchief and wiped it while saying: "You didn't make up this story, did you?"
The potter smiled slightly and said: "There must be some tampering by me. This is understandable, but Tao swears on his life that Lao Bai does indeed exist, and what he did is even better than what I said.
It will be even greater and more glorious."
Zhang Zhongjing wiped away his tears, glared at the pottery merchant, and suddenly sighed quietly: "Compared to Lao Bai, Zhang's ambitions and actions are really far behind... I am afraid that I may not be able to achieve what Lao Bai is like in this life.
Heroic pride."
Tao Shang smiled and shook his head, saying: "It's not impossible. We don't necessarily have to surpass Lao Bai, but we can continue along the path he pointed out to us. Lao Zhang, you are a qualified person to become
How about the eternal medical sage, stay in Jinling City and carry forward the medical way with me. Let's let the medical way reach the top of the industry in this world and let the medical way become a respected industry. Don't let this sacred industry anymore.
, how about continuing to be second-rate in this world?"
