Chapter 61 teacher mystery

In fact, Yu Jiayan is a very difficult doctor to write about. There are not many relevant records left in history, but it is precisely these few materials that are full of contradictions. I often feel at a loss when faced with these information. , in order to strip the historical truth for everyone, I have to repeatedly find the content behind these materials, but the work is extremely difficult.In other words, judging from the available information, Yu Jiayan's life is full of mysteries. For example, Yu Jiayan has been taking the imperial examinations, and he became a vice-ranked tribute student at the age of forty-five. After three years in the capital, he went home to practice medicine at the age of forty-eight. According to the data, he started practicing medicine at home. Soon he will be a top master, then, there must be a big mystery in everyone's mind: Isn't this brother born?How could he become a famous doctor by jumping out sideways?Nor is there a reborn process?When did he start studying medicine?How did you study medicine?

Just at this time, historical data provided us with a rather strange statement, saying that he "seldom met strangers and gave him secret recipes, and he was also good at yellow and white techniques". Apart from this, I have not seen any other records so far.The translation of this sentence is: when he was young, he met a mysterious expert who taught him the secret recipe, and also Taoist kung fu such as alchemy. This is a legendary story in the style of martial arts novels. It is like a child walking on the street and meeting a beggar: "My child, do you want a book here?"

When the children saw it, it was "The Palm of the Tathagata", wow!So I bought it, and after practicing, I finally became a super master, and finally defeated all the Hama skills. Usually I would sneer at this kind of statement, because there are too many such legends in Chinese history, such as Bian Que meeting Chang Sang Jun, Chinese people prefer the kind of stupid child who meets a strange person to teach, and then becomes a master Story mode, so writers who write are also willing to spare no effort to write such legends. But regarding this record, I believe that the situation is generally like this, because Yu Jiayan once mentioned: When my master gave me medical skills, I made an oath that I must use medical skills to save all living beings, and I must not use them for fame.

This record provides us with some clues about the "inhuman".It can be seen that the so-called "foreigner" is a doctor who lives in seclusion among the people, but obviously this doctor is very special. First, he didn't leave his name behind. It is estimated that even Yu Jiayan may not know the real name of this person, otherwise it would be easy to show off the teacher's achievements with Yu Jiayan's huge influence in the future; Second, this teacher has noble medical ethics, because he taught Yu Jiayan to save people from the very beginning, and even used oath to tell Yu Jiayan the importance of medical ethics. There is a comparison in "Medical Student Oath", but this expert used a method almost intimidating. He said that if you learn medical skills and don't go to save all sentient beings, then God will take revenge on you, and you will be struck by lightning , but also to cut off children and grandchildren (it is estimated that Yu Jiayan, who was still young at that time, must have been scared to cry).

We really have no way to know the background of this teacher now. With the passage of time, many historical figures have been buried under the yellow sand of time and disappeared forever, but we can be sure that there was such a teacher The teacher guided Yu Jiayan on the path of medicine, and told him that saving all sentient beings is the most important thing, and he should spend his whole life practicing it. Let us thank this unknown teacher! However, the "secret recipe" in "Secret recipe given by another person" aroused our curiosity again. What "secret recipe" did this master give Yu Jiayan?How amazing!Could there be any clues to the secret recipe?

Let me give you a try. The following is the entire growth track of Yu Jiayan: While this teacher is teaching Yu Jiayan medicine, Yu Jiayan will also study for exams as he grows up, take the road of imperial examinations, and take the exams. He went to Gongsheng, then went to the capital, was left alone for three years, and then returned to Jiangxi to practice medicine, and became famous in one fell swoop. After ten years of practice, he wrote the "Yiyicao" that recorded his medical treatment process. In this way, everyone can understand, if this expert imparted any secret recipe to Yu Jiayan, it would definitely appear in Yu Jiayan's diagnosis process, and it would definitely be recorded in the book "Yiyi Grass". Therefore, let Let's come to the book "Mortal Grass" to find clues.

After reading all of "Yiyicao", I believe everyone will understand that there are many medical cases of Yu Jiayan's treatment in the book. In the discussion behind each medical case, the content of "Huangdi Neijing" is the most quoted. There are also the contents of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" and "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber". As for the prescription, I also used Xiebai San by Dr. Qian Yi of the Song Dynasty. When discussing the treatment of single abdominal distention, I also quoted a familiar content, Yu Jia Saying: In Xu Shuwei's "Puji Skills", Xu Shuwei said that when he was a child, he "sat at night and wrote articles, and leaned to the left, so he ate a lot to the left... Xia Yuezhi sweated on the right, but never on the left..." Finally He made Cangzhu Pills himself, and he was cured, how is it?Get familiar with it, we have seen it in Xu Shuwei's story, it turns out that Yu Jiayan has also read these contents!

Now the truth is clear, there is no "secret recipe" taught by another person, it turns out that they are all classics of Chinese medicine, if you have to talk about the secret recipe, there are a few so-called "secret recipes" published by Xu Shuwei, but never From the Song Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, the patent protection period has passed long ago. (It was announced when Xu Shuwei was hit) So this time I figured out that these so-called "secret recipes taught by strangers" are all fabricated by literati who don't understand medicine. Everyone would rather make this matter mysterious, but now some people who are engaged in medical history The people in the literature continued to say: Yu Jiayan met a stranger who taught him the secret recipe when he was young, and he made a mistake. He must be serious about treating a doctor and not be mysterious.

Some medical historians gave us an even more unreliable statement, saying that after Yu Jiayan returned to Jiangxi from Beijing, he became angry and studied medicine when he saw that his official career was hopeless. This is obviously even more mysterious, because in In just ten years, it is really difficult to learn medicine from the beginning, then treat diseases, teach apprentices, and finally write a high-level book. Besides, Yu Jiayan himself said in the preface of "Yiyi Grass" It is very clear: "Chang (himself) has no other masters in this way, but from childhood to old age, the diseases that can be seen by eyes and ears..." This fully shows that he started to study medicine in his early years, not after middle age of.

Well, enough of the introduction of Comrade Yu Jiayan's study, it's time to introduce his work experience, let's see who Yu Jiayan is, so that future generations will praise him. First of all, I would like to remind everyone that our Comrade Yu Jiayan has a personality in his diagnosis, so don't be intimidated by him. Now, let's see how he diagnoses the disease.
