Chapter 101 follower master

This book is called "Yi Guan", which was written by Zhao Xianke of the Ming Dynasty. Let us talk about this Zhao Xianke's "Yi Guan" from the beginning. It is said that in the early years of the dynasty, there was an imperial physician named Xue Lizhai, who was a master, especially in surgery, but he had a characteristic in seeing internal medicine, that is, there were always a few prescriptions, Liuwei Dihuang Pill, Jinkuishenqi Pill, Xiaoyao San, Buzhong Yiqi Decoction, etc., but his cleverness is that he adds and subtracts back and forth in these prescriptions, and the effect is not bad. Big grid.

Later, Zhao Xianke saw it, this is good, it saves time to see a doctor, and learning these few prescriptions should be enough, so he devised a theory to explain why only these few prescriptions are enough . Among them, he also paid special attention to tonifying yang, believing that the fire of the gate of life is very important in the human body, so he strongly advocated warming and tonifying the fire of the gate of life (to put it bluntly, it is to invigorate the kidney yang). This book had a great influence at the time, and many people followed suit (among them are probably the quack doctors in our previous story).

Of course, the influence of this book was not so great later, because Comrade Xu Lingtai started to follow the post. Comrade Xu’s method of posting is similar to posting on the Internet today. The specific operation process is: bring your book, you write a paragraph, and I will refute a paragraph, without missing a paragraph, and post them all for you. If Comrade Zhao Xianke knew that there was such a follower in Jiuquan, his head would explode with anger. Now let us select a few excerpts from the original post and follow-up posts, and take a look at the grand occasion of the "Internet" war that year.

Zhao Xianke wrote: "I am so earnest that I must want to understand this theory. Those who want to live in the world are those who nourish their health and heal their diseases. They regard the gate of life as the monarch. And add the word for fire." (He means: The reason why I talk about the principle of tonifying yang in such a rambling manner is to let comrades who like health preservation and those who treat diseases in the world know the importance of kidney yang, and pay attention to tonifying fire at all times) Comrade Xu Lingtai immediately posted: "Cultivating the body and supplementing the fire is a prejudice, and the treatment of the disease must depend on the source of the disease. If you blindly supplement the fire, it will not kill people!" (Comrade Xu immediately said in the post: use It’s already a prejudice to invigorate yang to keep in good health, and it’s even more necessary to see a doctor. How did you get it? If you use the word fire to cover it all, aren’t you afraid of killing people?)

Yes, Zhao Xian wrote it for nothing. Zhao Xianke also said that if you understand the matter of Mingmenhuo, then "it is clear. Not only the origin of medicine has its own, but the inheritance of sages and morals has never been obscured since then. And the so-called consistent , Haoran also, Mingde also, (Comrade Xu Lingtai’s comment here: If Confucius said that being involved in my way is fire, Mencius said that I am good at nourishing my fire, and "University" says that if there is a clear fire, it will not be inexhaustible!) Xuan Min, the sky, and Tai Chi are just the same fire.” (Comrade Xu Lingtai’s post here: Tai Chi is a ball of fire? Is there a reason?)

Well, Comrade Zhao Xianke was once again taken advantage of. Let's see again. Zhao Xianke also said: "At the beginning of human beings, there is pure yang and no yin. It depends on the breastfeeding of its mother's yin, and yin is born." Comrade Xu Lingtai commented: "In this way, the child will only have the gate of life and no left kidney, and the left kidney will be born after breastfeeding?" (Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the left kidney belongs to yin and the right kidney belongs to yang) Comrade Zhao Xianke must be very regretful - it is impossible to speak less rigorously.

Zhao Xianke wrote in "Medicine and Injury Diet Theory": "The scriptures say: the lower energies are empty and the middle energies are full. If you want to cure the deficiency, you will make the middle fuller; At this point, it is difficult to be unprepared. Open it up, fortify the bottom, if you use it less, the evil will block the top, and if you use it more, it will fortify the bottom. The so-called Sein is blocked by the user.” Comrade Xu Lingtai wrote after the words "Jingyue": "The following scriptures are all self-made, and I am extremely unscrupulous. I think that people in the world will never read the "Neijing"." (meaning saying Zhao Xianke's quotes from the "Nei Jing" below are all made up by himself. This comrade is so unscrupulous that he even dares to make up the words of the "Nei Jing". Presumably this comrade has his eyes closed and no one in the world will read it. "Neijing" bar)

It seems that Comrade Xu Lingtai is not polite at all. To be fair, Comrade Zhao Xianke’s books are not useless. Some of his views are still valuable, and he is also considered to be a school of ancient doctors. It's still a little low in education, and Comrade Xu Lingtai always catches the loopholes. The above are just a few excerpts. If you want to see the whole picture of this online post war, you can find "Yi Guan Bian" written by Comrade Xu Lingtai to visit. Every paragraph has a post, which is spectacular and unique. It is a pity that Comrade Zhao Xianke has no way to reply, because he is from the Ming Dynasty and has passed away long ago.

After reviewing "Yi Guan", Comrade Xu Lingtai was not satisfied with it, and later followed Ye Tianshi's "Clinical Guide to Medical Records". This book was not written by Ye Tianshi, but his disciples collected Ye Tianshi's medical records. sorted out.Xu Lingtai's comments are very interesting. He also praises the good things, but he is merciless about the bad things.Sometimes Ye Tianshi talked for a long time, and he only wrote two words in the follow-up post: "nonsense", sometimes it was "uncut", "unethical", "not typical", and sometimes it was just After a long discussion, I have read "Clinical Guide and Medical Records" several times, but later I felt that without Xu Lingtai's follow-up post, something would be missing.

Unfortunately, Ye Tianshi couldn't reply anymore, he passed away 20 years before Xu Lingtai. So the official position I gave to Comrade Xu Lingtai is: Director of the Correction Office, in charge of correcting various unhealthy tendencies in the medical system. He took care of all unhealthy trends in the medical field. For example, there was a trend at that time that doctors liked to use ginseng. Why do doctors like to use ginseng?Because ginseng was an extremely expensive medicine at the time (now it has been cultivated, and the price is almost the same as that of radish, but the real wild ginseng is still very expensive), the doctor likes to prescribe expensive medicines because he has his own little calculation— —There are too many rebates. In ancient times, there were also such problems. For their own income, doctors added some ginseng when prescribing prescriptions, and then asked them to go to a certain pharmacy to buy medicines, thus forming a profit chain.

So the doctors said in unison that ginseng is good, it is a great tonic, and if you are sick, how can you not eat ginseng? Where did it end up?According to Comrade Xu Lingtai's description, if the child is sick and the parents don't buy ginseng medicine, then they are not loving parents, and the neighbors should talk about it: this family is really unkind, don't this child Didn't pick it up. If your parents are sick, if your son doesn’t buy ginseng, you will definitely be labeled as disobedient. Wait until you go out and be pointed out by neighbors! Husband and wife are ill, if you don’t buy ginseng medicine, you will still be scolded: it’s outrageous, don’t let your family members die for the sake of property, if it’s not for property, why would you even be reluctant to buy ginseng? In short, the catchphrase back then must have been: no gifts for this year’s festival, only good ginseng. Opening the newspapers of the year was full of advertisements, that a certain person had cancer, and after taking ginseng, he was surprised to find that the tumor had disappeared!Miracle! It is estimated that the scene of the year must have been unprecedented. As a result, many families did not have much money, and the doctor prescribed ginseng after they got sick. In order to live morally, the family sold everything they could, and many people sold their houses to buy ginseng for treatment. In fact, many people were not suitable for it. After taking ginseng, the family will be ruined and people will lose money. After this problem was discovered by Comrade Xu Lingtai, he felt that it was necessary to correct this unhealthy trend, so he immediately took out a spicy pen and wrote an article "On Ginseng", which was published in his book "On the Origin and Development of Medicine" middle. He said, look at those villains who want to murder people, the most he can do is to stab someone, he has no ability to bankrupt the victim's family; similarly, if a person's business goes bankrupt, the money is gone Those who are still alive.First bankrupt the victim's family, and then take the life of the victim. Those who have this ability are the ginseng in the hands of this quack doctor. It’s true that ginseng nourishes qi, but it’s worth it. When a patient’s syndrome has wind-cold, summer-dampness, stagnation of phlegm and fire, and then ginseng is used, it will make up for the evil qi (of course, what he said It’s a bit too much, it can still be used in conjunction with other medicines in the prescription, but it’s wrong to use it blindly), so people in the world must not think that ginseng is a tonic that must be taken when sick. In any case, it is really necessary to be cautious when using such an expensive medicine. For the consequences of excessive use of ginseng, this passage written by Xu Lingtai is better. If you still don't save them, there will be no coffins. If you sell your wife and children, the whole family will be ruined. If a doctor makes a wrong treatment, murder is forgiven, but if he wants to do it, he will harm people and destroy his family every day. The evil is worse than robbers. I hope that people in the world will never take ginseng as a medicine for bringing the dead back to life. The doctor must examine the disease. His family business can still be supported, so that after using ginseng, he will be helpless. Then save and use it, one to cherish material resources, one to save the life of the whole person, and one to protect the family. Such intentions will naturally bring blessings from heaven. If it is like the medicine in recent days, killing lives and destroying families in places where people don't know, and fearing disasters from heaven, it is also in places where people don't know, so it's not prudent." In fact, everyone can understand that Xu Lingtai is talking about a ginseng, but ginseng is actually just a symbol.In modern society, this symbol represents more things, and everyone can experience it for themselves.
