Chapter 96 Long-sleeved and good at dancing

Another reason why it is difficult for Comrade Xu Lingtai to write is that the comrade is good at dancing in all directions, always doing several things at the same time, and these few things are not related to each other. Taking into account, for example, when I was thirty-two years old, I was studying medicine here, but suddenly I heard that a canal was going to be built in the county, and Comrade Xu Lingtai became happy. This is a good thing, and it will benefit the people. , I felt very happy in my heart, and drank a few more glasses of wine for this. Xu Lingtai is such a warm-hearted person, and there is nothing he is unwilling to do for the common people. This is the objective summary of other comrades.

However, after hearing about the repair plan, Xu Lingtai felt that there was something wrong. After all, it was learned professionally, and it was still several times better than those amateur masters in the county yamen. Soon, Xu Lingtai saw the problem, so he put the Chinese medicine books aside, studied ink, spread paper, and began to write letters to the magistrate. It seems that Comrade Xu Lingtai is really knowledgeable, and what he wrote in the letter is reasonable. It turned out that the magistrate of the county meant that the digging should be done near the embankment in the canal, the deeper the better.I don't know which idiot came up with the idea, anyway, it really saves trouble, it's easy to dig near the shore, and just put the soil aside after digging.

Xu Lingtai wrote to the county magistrate, you have been fooled, and you must not dig by the side of the embankment!In this way, the dam will be easily destroyed when the water rushes back and forth. Now you save trouble, and you will have to repair it when the time comes! Also, why dig deep?It is for the big ships to transport grain. Have you ever seen a river that is deep on both sides and shallow in the middle, and the big ships go close to the side? The magistrate of the county was also stupid when he read the letter, yes, why didn’t I think of it, then Comrade Xiao Xu, what do you think should be done?

Xu Lingtai said again: It should be dug in the middle of the river, far away from the embankment, and the soil should be taken from that place. It is not necessary to dig so deep, because the center of the river is already deeper, so it saves effort. The big boat walks in the middle of the river. How nice it is for a small boat to walk on both sides, and don't forget, the embankment is also safe in this way, so you don't have to worry about being washed away by the water. The magistrate of the county thought about it, yes, why didn’t I think of it, hey, Comrade Xiao Xu has two brushes, how about this, from now on, if there is any water conservancy project in the county, you will help the staff Bar!Also, who gave me the previous idea?Pull it out and make a 20-big board. If you still come up with such an idea in the future, your labor insurance will be deducted!

As a result, after the project was completed, "30% of the labor was saved, and the pond was preserved." As I said, this Xu Lingtai is a double-edged comrade, and it is impossible to write about him in a one-sided manner.His water conservancy project is in full swing. If you think I should write about him. How water conservancy works benefit the country and the people. Turn around and see that he is treating people again. up! On this day, Comrade Xu Lingtai felt very upset in the county government office, because a comrade engaged in water conservancy in Dongshan (Dongshan Water Conservancy Tong Zhi) borrowed Xu Lingtai's water conservancy book (borrowed the remaining water conservancy book) , It is said that it is easy to borrow and pay back, but this brother, he is gone forever, as if nothing happened, he asked someone to bring a few messages, but pretended not to know, Xu Lingtai decided to personally Go out and go to Dongshan to ask him for it, alas, I would have known better if I didn't borrow him!

Comrade Xu Lingtai went to Dongshan in a small boat and took back the books. As soon as he left the Yamen of Dongshan, he saw a figure rushing towards him. Everyone was startled, but when they saw the person coming, he fell to his knees in front of the car and yelled "Help". Xu Lingtai wondered, I'm not the magistrate of the county, it's useless to tell me any grievances, you have found the wrong person! Someone shouted: "That's right! I'm looking for you, I'm not here to sue, I'm here to ask for a life-saving elixir!" Only then did Xu Lingtai breathe a sigh of relief: "Yeah, it's useless to sue me, what's the matter? Who's sick? Where is home?"

"The house is just opposite the gate of the yamen, and the person has been dead for three days." Xu Lingtai almost fell off the carriage: I'm dizzy, this man has been dead for three days!Also come to me! "Listen to me, I have been dead for three days. When I was about to enter the coffin, the eyes and mouth of the deceased suddenly moved (the eyes and lips of the deceased moved suddenly when he was about to enter the coffin), and they all said that you can bring the dead back to life. Please help save a life!" Xu Lingtai said in his heart: I should complain this time, who made up the rumors, saying that I can be brought back to life, isn't it harming me? !

When the visitor saw that Xu Lingtai was hesitating, he kowtowed desperately and got his head full of dirt. How can an enthusiastic person like Xu Lingtai bear this? Thinking about it, the eyes and mouth of the deceased moved, maybe it is really possible to not die? "Okay, don't kowtow anymore, get up, I'll go with you!" So a group of people came to the deceased's house. Xu Lingtai made a medical examination and put his hand on the deceased's chest deliberately. Sure enough, he felt a little warmth. He wanted to push away the death. I began to have a score in my heart, so I said to my family members: "My elixir is in my boat, you can take it with me."

The patient's family members were overjoyed, and there really is a magic pill! So he happily returned to the boat with Xu Lingtai. Where did Xu Lingtai get the magic pill? The function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis is mainly composed of Chen Mo. Our Xu Lingtai took two pills for the patient's family and told them to dissolve it with water and give the patient a dose. Xu Lingtai pondered in his heart. He thought that the patient just passed out from a coma due to blood stasis. Although this medicine is not for the treatment of this disease, it should be against the evidence.

Although Xu Lingtai was not completely sure whether he could be saved or not, it was worth a try. As a result, after taking the medicine, the patient came back to life. Thinking about this, Xu Lingtai was also afraid. He said, for these first-aid medicines: "If the doctor is not prepared, how can it work for a while?" Sometimes when I was on a business trip, I would encounter various patients. I went to Yangzhou on a business trip that day and passed Suzhou by boat. I was hungry and had to go ashore to eat, so I asked the boatman to stop the boat by the Tongjing Bridge and then go ashore.

No one thought that the place where the boat stopped happened to block the door of the family. The family's surname is Ni, and they make a living selling firewood. At this moment, the old man of their family is critically ill, and the family members are no longer able to see the patients, so they are crying and starting to prepare for the funeral. The boatman happened to see it, and he was very pitiful, so he told them: "The one who just went up to eat is the famous Xu Lingtai. Don't hurry up and beg, maybe you can live!"They just revived a man who had been dead for three days! Xu Lingtai is really wronged! When the son of the Ni family heard this, what a coincidence?We've heard about it (rumors travel so fast), and the master can't even invite it!My God, the incense my wife burned yesterday was really good! At night, Xu Lingtai came back and was about to board the boat when the son of the Ni family stopped him, "crying for treatment". After hearing this, Xu Lingtai went into the room to see the patient without saying a word. The result of the examination was that the patient was suffering from typhoid fever, which had already become a syndrome of Yangming fu-sufficiency, and the method of purging and purging should be used, but because it was not used, the result was evil heat burning inside, "fainting, panting and burning tongue". Xu Lingtai said: "This is the syndrome of Dachengqi Decoction, just use the original prescription, no need to add or subtract!" (Dachengqi Decoction is a prescription in Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases". Evil heat and dryness of Yangming fu organs) Then he wrote the prescription of Dachengqi Decoction, and told the patient: "If the stool does not come out after drinking a dose of medicine, continue to take it. Once the patient has diarrhea, don't take it again!" (No more than one dose Then you will be more convinced, just stop) Then board the boat and sail away. When I finished my work in Yangzhou, I still passed by Suzhou when I came back. It has been a month later, and coincidentally, the boat is still parked at the gate of Ni's house (I don't know if the boatman did it on purpose). Look at the old man of the Ni family, who is carrying firewood to work, "he is as strong as ever." The family hurriedly thanked Xu Lingtai. Xu Lingtai nodded slightly and smiled, and set off on her way home again. In the water waves, the boat has already swung far away. You can also vaguely see a family waving there. Many years later, when Xu Lingtai was recording this medical case, he was still feeling that Zhang Zhongjing's ancient prescription at that time, if the prescription matched the disease and syndrome, the effect would be amazing, but the doctors around him often didn't understand. I can use it because I can't calm down and read "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" seriously.
