Chapter 120: Ancestral
“Young man, it’s medicine that’s three parts poisonous. Although this medicine is good, it’s better to eat less of it.”
“If you really have needs in this regard, I have a Acupuncture can help you, do you want to try it?"
"Of course, in return, can you give me a little of these medicines, not much, just a little."
Doctor Zhang spoke repeatedly, and Xu Boyan was surprised when he heard this.
Good guy, this is like telling me "you can't grasp it"!
If this were not in a regular hospital, I would have doubted whether I had encountered a charlatan.
Why do I look at the expression and tone of the old Chinese medicine doctor in front of me, so much like the big bad wolf deceiving the little white rabbit!
Xu Bo'an casually played Tai Chi and pretended to be confused and said: "Doctor Zhang, you are joking. These were given to me by a friend for making soup. I don't even know what you are talking about."
< br>Doctor Zhang's expression changed and he said regretfully: "Making soup? This... this is a bit too wasteful."
Xu Boan asked curiously: "What a waste of natural resources? Why did Doctor Zhang say this!"
Doctor Zhang smiled and said: "As I just told you, these medicinal materials are not ordinary medicinal materials. They are not only They are all wild, and they are all aged, so you understand what I said.” This is what "quality" means.
Cynomorum Cynomorium, Cistanche deserticola, Dendrobium officinale!
In addition, common Chinese medicines such as wolfberry, velvet antler, and ginseng are added.
Xu Bo'an has heard that after all, it is normal for middle-aged people to soak wolfberry and deer antler slices in a thermos cup.
But the medicinal materials that can make an old Chinese doctor stunned are so precious.
Xu Bo'an nodded and said thoughtfully: "I understand, what you mean is that these medicinal materials are very expensive."
Doctor Zhang nodded and said: " Yes, but it cannot simply be said to be expensive, it should be precious. It is a pity that these herbs lose less active ingredients after being dried, which will affect the effectiveness of the medicine. There will be better effects. Of course, I am just talking about these herbs. Some herbs need to be dried before they can be used. "
This kind of professional thing is not something that a layman like Xu Bo'an can do. You know, he used to think that all Chinese medicines can be used as medicine only after they are dried in the sun. Isn't this common sense among most people?
When Doctor Zhang said this, Xu Bo'an couldn't help but think of the Polygonum multiflorum given to him by the monkey leader because he helped cure the little monkey.
Those are serious fresh herbs that have just been picked.
Thinking of this, Xu Boan pretended to reach out and touch his handbag a few times, and then took out the Polygonum multiflorum root.
"Doctor Zhang, please help me take a look at this piece of Polygonum multiflorum, how about it."
Seeing Xu Boan take out such a big piece of Polygonum multiflorum, Doctor Zhang's eyes widened even more.
"This... fresh Polygonum multiflorum? Where did you get it? It must be at least 500 years old."
Xu Bo'an shrugged and said: "A gift from a friend. "Yes, I don't understand either, so I'm asking you to help me."
Doctor Zhang shook his head and said, "It's incredible, it's incredible, you can't do this." I will also use it to make soup.”
Xu Boyan thought, I said to use those medicinal materials to make soup because I don’t know their value.
I knew from the beginning that Polygonum multiflorum was not cheap, so how could I use it to make soup?
Maximizing interests is the perfection that adults pursue.
Xu Bo'an said with a smile: "Doctor Zhang is joking, I am not that rich,"
"I can already use these things to make soup, isn't this rich enough?"
< br>Doctor Zhang pointed to a few dried medicinal materials in the bag and joked with a smile.
Xu Boan asked tentatively: "Then... Doctor Zhang, how much are these things worth?"
Doctor Zhang shook his head and said: "This is not a good evaluation, in the eyes of those who need it , worth thousands of gold, but in the eyes of people who don’t need it, it’s nothing.”
Xu Boan felt a little bored when he heard this. This old man is very smart. He was worried that he had tricked him into negotiating terms.
Xu Boan has already seen that Dr. Zhang is very fond of these medicinal herbs.
Xu Boyan chuckled and said: "Doctor Zhang, how much are these things worth in your eyes?"
Doctor Zhang, who was not good at lying, smiled and said a little embarrassedly: " This... I need some money for Cynomorium cynomorium and Dendrobium officinale, but I don't have much money. If you are willing, young man, I am willing to use acupuncture for you to solve your worries. I guarantee that there will be no side effects. It’s like we exchange one thing for another.”
Xu Bo'an's eyes widened and he said dissatisfied: "Doctor Zhang, I see that you are also an experienced apricot forest expert. Traditional Chinese medicine pays more attention to hearing, hearing and asking questions. Do you think I am worried about not doing anything?" < br>
Doctor Zhang shook his head, touched his beard and said: "At first glance, it doesn't look like it, but you know your own situation well. Maybe you can make up for it with some medicine."
Xu Bo'an didn't want to bear the reputation of not giving it, so he hurriedly explained to himself: "You misunderstood, I haven't taken this medicine yet. I just want to ask you about the efficacy of these things. I don't know the efficacy before , I don’t dare to eat randomly. After hearing what you say now, I don’t think I need to eat anymore. But I hear what you mean, Doctor Zhang.”
Doctor Zhang? Xu Bo'an couldn't hear the teasing meaning, and immediately blushed and explained: "No, no. I don't want this medicine for physical therapy, but these two medicines, in addition to the effect of tonic, can also do I only use Mingmu Powder as an auxiliary medicine for the prescription. As I get older, my eyesight has become blurry. It’s okay that I didn’t have this opportunity in the past. Now that I can make up this prescription with this medicine, I naturally want to give it a try. "< br>
Xu Bo'an asked curiously: "Cynomorium Cynomorium and Dendrobium officinale are both common Chinese medicines. With your status in the Chinese medicine community, it is not difficult to find such a medicine, right?"
Doctor Zhang said regretfully: "What do you know? Ordinary Cynomorium Cynomorium and Dendrobium officinale are naturally easily available, but pure wild medicines that are hundreds of years old are hard to find. . Without these two herbs, even if my prescription is precious, it will still be like the moon in the mirror."
Xu Bo'an said with a smile: "Doctor Zhang, what do you think? I’ll give you some. I don’t want your money, but can you show me the prescription for improving eyesight?”
Xu Bo’an thought very simply. His parents are old and have presbyopia. problems.
If you can improve your parents' eyesight, that would be the best expression of filial piety.
I never thought that when Dr. Zhang heard this, he refused vigilantly: "This is not acceptable. This is passed down from our ancestors. It is passed down from male to female. It is passed down from within to outside. But I have such a clear eyesight." After brewing the powder, I can give you a few doses.”
Xu Bo'an curled his lips in disinterest and said: "Teaching a fish is not as satisfying as teaching a fish to fish. If that's the case, forget it. Excuse me. Doctor Zhang, you are busy, I will leave first." "Having said that, Xu Bo'an went to collect the bag containing the medicinal materials as hard as he could.
Seeing this, Dr. Zhang hurriedly covered the mouth of the bag and said hurriedly: "Hey, hey, don't leave in a hurry yet, we can discuss anything."
Xu Bo'an shrugged and said: "What's there to discuss? I want money, but you don't have it. I want prescriptions, but you won't give them. No matter how much we discuss, you can't let me give it to you for free."
" Of course it can't be done!" Doctor Zhang smiled and tapped his fingers nervously on the table. After a while, he said: "How about this? I can give you some of the things I have been doing over the years. The folk remedies collected are quite effective, what do you think?"
Xu Bo'an said with interest: "Let's see what they are."
Doctor Zhang picked them up. There were books, notebooks and other sundries on the desk. He pointed to the glass plate pressed on the desk and said: "What is pressed under this glass plate are all effective Chinese medicines that I have collected over the years and have been verified by real clinical trials." Remedies. If you agree, I can give them to you."
Xu Boan lowered his head and looked up.
On the densely packed papers under the glass plate, there are various folk remedies left by various pens and inks.
A prescription for relieving migraines written in pencil on the calendar paper, a prescription for treating onychomycosis written in ballpoint pen on the paper on the cigarette pack, a gel pen prescription for treating frequent urination on a half-torn white paper with staggered teeth, a sticky note There were remedies for insomnia written in pen on the paper, and there were even remedies for treating overeating that seemed to be written in lipstick on paper.
Good guy, I really don’t know the circumstances under which these prescriptions were collected.
Xu Bo'an made a casual estimate, there are about twenty kinds.
If it is as effective as Dr. Zhang said, it would be quite heart-wrenching.
It’s just that the doctor, an old Chinese medicine practitioner, was really lazy and just put it down casually without making a new copy.
Thinking of this, Xu Boan glanced at Doctor Zhang with slight disdain.
Seemingly sensing Xu Bo'an's thoughts, Doctor Zhang said dissatisfied: "Don't think that I didn't re-record these things. I still have the electronic version on my computer. It's just that I am nostalgic. Down here, it’s like seeing stories and experiences one by one. These are all my precious treasures. It’s best to keep them here.”
This time it’s replaced. Xu Bo'an was a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Doctor Zhang is joking. Who would think twice about your professionalism? Then would you bother to send me an electronic copy of your copy?"
Doctor Zhang He smiled proudly, stroked his beard and said, "Oh? So, you agree."
"I basically agree, but I have to add what you just told me. Is that acupuncture treatment okay? "
"What? Acupuncture treatment? That's not possible." Doctor Zhang shook his head sharply and then picked up the book he was looking at. Huang Shu said: "The acupuncture technique was also passed down from my ancestors, and it is all in this book. If you need it, I can help you with a few courses of treatment."
Xu Boan pointed at the book and said: "Although this book is very old, it looks like it has been there for thirty or fifty years. It is a bit lax to say it is from an ancestor!"
< br>Doctor Zhang rolled his eyes and said: "This book was compiled by my great-grandfather and grandfather based on the ancient scrolls handed down from their ancestors. It was printed at their own expense and has not been published. It was passed down from our own family to read. If Otherwise, the ancient scroll would have been turned into pieces. "
Xu Bo'an was about to say a few words of praise to Business, when unexpectedly, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
A quick and clear voice came: "Grandpa, the bus grandma was riding on when she came to deliver food to us just now had an accident. I have to go out with the bus for first aid now!"
Xu Boan subconsciously followed the sound and was suddenly startled.
Good guy! Isn't this Doctor Bai?
Although the other person was wearing a mask, Xu Boan could still recognize that this was Bai Susu from the look in his eyes.
It turns out that she is Dr. Zhang’s granddaughter!
When Xu Boan recognized the other party, the other party also seemed to recognize Xu Boan.
However, the two of them were not familiar with each other, and they only had a few conversations that were neither salty nor mild, which made Bai Susu think that Xu Boan was deliberately trying to strike up a conversation with her.
Therefore, Bai Susu just stared at Xu Bo'an unexpectedly, and then didn't look at him again.
Doctor Zhang, who was sitting next to him, had already stood up in fear and said anxiously: "What did you say? Let's go, I'll go to the emergency room too."
The grandson and grandpa left in a hurry. Xu Boan became the only person in this room.
Doctor Zhang was so anxious to leave that he forgot to let Xu Boan out first.
Xu Bo'an was not polite. He looked at the thick ancestral medical book on the table, sat down at the desk in a dignified manner, and started flipping through it.
How can you not cherish the opportunity given by God and fate?
As for the negative comments like "peeping into other people's books without permission".
Good guys, how can the things about scholars be called stealing?
Xu Bo'an casually turned the book to the title page, only to realize that Doctor Zhang's so-called ancestral biography was really not a lie.
According to the description on the title page, their lineage is actually the descendant of the miracle doctor Zhang Zhongjing.
Good guy, with this resounding name, Xu Boyan suddenly felt that this medical book was even more valuable.
When he turned to the catalog page again, Xu Boan was even more shocked.
A variety of prescriptions cover almost all common and rare daily conditions.
Having knowledge but not learning is a waste of resources!
Xu Boan spent sleepless nights looking through the books. He originally thought about taking pictures directly, but later he felt that this was a bit too much. It was suspected of plagiarism, and he couldn't bear it in his conscience, so he gave up.
However, Xu Boan found that his memory can still achieve the effect of photographing ten lines at a glance, and he felt more at ease.
One page, two pages, ten pages...
When Xu Boyan finally finished flipping through the book, he was about to stretch, so he closed the cover of the last page, and there it was. At this time, the door was pushed open, and a young male doctor in a white coat hurriedly walked in.
Seeing Xu Bo'an, the other party seemed a little surprised. He was startled for a moment, and then looked at Xu Bo'an angrily: "Who are you? Who let you in? How dare you read Master's medical books? ”
