The old Chinese doctor in the courtyard

Chapter 323 New Partition Faction

"Uncle Li, this kind of equipment must have a provenance, otherwise it will inevitably be criticized for its provenance.

My knowledge was limited, and I was a monk halfway, so I really couldn’t understand the source. "

A prudent attitude and rigorous scholarship are also the advantages of people like Master Zhu.

Regardless of whether there are eight or eighteen ways of writing the word 'fennel', as long as it is recorded in the classics, it seems to them that there is evidence to follow.

No, it is pseudoscience and tampering. As the dean of the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Master Zhu’s investigation into the origin of the equipment is not an act of superfluity, but a cover-up for Li Shengli.

Without a provenance, no matter how good the equipment is, it is just imitation of Western medicine. With a provenance, no matter how advanced the equipment is, it is also the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancestors.

If Li Shengli dared to find a few ancient books of Treatise on Febrile Diseases and said that there were records of ultrasound and nuclear magnetic resonance in them, Master Zhu would also dare to believe it and even dare to say it.

As long as it is not an isolated ancient book, as long as there is evidence, it is nothing more than an academic debate. As long as the theory of forgery and usurpation is well-founded, what can't be said?What can't be lifted?

"Su Wenzhong said: In the Eastern region, all diseases are carbuncles, and the treatment is suitable for Bianstone.

This is the earliest record of surgery, no doubt!

Among the utensils, needles, scissors, knives, pliers, and chisels are recorded in the Song Dynasty's Shiyi Prescriptions and Yonglei Prescriptions.

This 'chisel' needs to be looked at carefully. Now it is considered unique to Chinese medicine. It will be difficult to say in the future. Who needs to plagiarize whom? It cannot be said too early.

The use of mulberry threads is recorded in the official records of the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Zhiche Chronicles of the Song Dynasty.

'If you cut yourself with a knife and harvest it, it will not die. The doctor will suture the wound with mulberry thread and apply medicine. '

The Sui Dynasty's Theory of the Origin of Diseases, the Ming Dynasty's Zhengzong of Surgery, and the former Qing Dynasty's Ming and Yin Collection of Surgery all have records of surgeries and related instruments.

Of course, the shape of some instruments cannot be verified, and the craftsman’s own understanding also goes into them when they are made. "

Master Zhu felt somewhat helpless when he heard the young man talking about eight forks in the road.

There must be discussions in these ancient books such as Su Wen, Shi Yi De Xiao Fang, Xiao Chuan Fang, Zhi Che Zhi, Treatise on the Causes of Diseases, Zhengzong of Surgery, and Ming and Yin Collection of Surgery, but the content in them is definitely different from Li Shengli’s. .

The craftsman’s own understanding still refers to Western medical surgical instruments, which is not clear.

With the development of technology, many surgical instruments are no longer familiar to Master Zhu. Not to mention him, a medical student studying in Japan, even the director of the Army General Hospital may not be able to recognize all the current Western medicine surgeries. instrument.

"Xiao Zhu, Shengli said it right. Equipment is just a foreign object, as long as it is suitable for use.

Since needles, scissors, knives, pliers, and chisels are mentioned in medical books, the shape is not important as long as it fits the hand and is suitable for use. "

Li Shengli wants to confuse the audience, but Mr. Shi doesn't care. Chinese and Western medicine are life-saving sciences, and mutual reference is the proper meaning of the question.

They were disparaging and trying to undermine each other, but they were inferior. Mr. Shi knew what his son-in-law was worried about. Similarly, Mr. Shi also knew what Li Shengli was trying to confuse.

But having said that, when it comes to orthodox debates involving the great lineage, the five words "needle, scissors, pliers and chisel" are enough. These five words are enough to cover most surgical instruments.

Equipment is only a foreign object after all. What Mr. Shi wants to watch now is Li Shengli's drama. A set of equipment can't explain anything.

"Master Zhu, what Mr. Shi said is right. Suitable for use is the requirement of the Chinese medicine circumcision school.

Dear Master, do you need me to explain the basic knowledge of Western medicine surgery first? "

After accepting Shi Lao's entrustment, Li Shengli took the opportunity to ask about Western medicine surgery, or the basics of surgery, which he was not very familiar with.

"Uncle Li, even if I don't know clearly, there are ready-made teaching materials. There is no need to go into details about the basics of Western medicine.

It's just that this sterile operating room will still be called Jamsil in the future? "

The words of his teacher and father-in-law also gave Master Zhu a clear understanding that western medicine surgery can be used by traditional Chinese medicine. Li Shengli, a junior uncle, mentioned it in the Army General Hospital and he was one of those who experienced it.

Today's incident may be the beginning of the operation to annex Western medicine. Previously, Lao Zhu thought that Li Shengli was just talking big words.

Nowadays, the surgical instruments of traditional Chinese medicine are on display. Obviously, when people talk, they have the capital to usurp Western medicine surgery for their own use.

After glancing sideways at Senior Brother Liu who was stroking his goatee happily, and then at his father-in-law Shi Lao who was still there, Lao Zhu glanced at Li Shengli, who was bored, and felt that he was probably going to be unlucky.

"Traditional Chinese medicine naturally needs to be called Chinese medicine. Jamsil is a good name. Of course, when it becomes official in the future, it will still be called an operating room. Isn't it scientific?

The internal name will also be Jamsil from now on. Isn’t it simple? "

Hearing Li Shengli's ulterior affirmation, Lao Zhu's face turned a little bitter. He hadn't even seen a single hair on his face yet, and he was already thinking about becoming regular in the future. The uncle Li Shengli had picked up had a big plan!

“Of course, if Chinese medicine treats a disease separately, it must use its own advantages to distinguish it from Western medicine.

The first one is the anesthesia for surgery, acupuncture, external application of drugs, and internal administration of prescriptions. These still need to be screened.

When it comes to mulberry threads, let’s talk about the second post-operative healing. In addition to the mulberry threads that the human body can decompose by itself, we also have various Dansan plasters that can remove scars, which are also unique to us.

In addition, there must be a combination of circumcision and traditional Chinese medicine. Western medicine is an extension of the anatomy of the dead. Although the surgery is performed inside the body, it is basically just a temporary treatment.

Dear Master, you can also think about it, apart from surgery and anti-inflammation, does Western medicine have any other unique features?
The traditional Chinese medicine school of cutting and treating is a continuation of traditional Chinese internal medicine. It is a surgical method based on various diseases of living people. The roots are internal and therefore not based on surgical techniques.

The study of the dead and the study of the living may be the biggest difference between Chinese medicine and Western medicine.

After a person dies, the Qi, blood and meridians cannot be checked. Although I had the idea of ​​applying Naxi medicine surgery to Chinese medicine, I have to say it first.The first clear statement of the new school of traditional Chinese medicine is the study of qi and blood channels of traditional Chinese medicine. It can be said to be the study of living people, or it can also be said to be the science of life.

How to define this? Master Zhu, professors at the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, don’t you need me to teach you anything? "

Before Li Shengli, there was no one who defined the basis of traditional Chinese and Western medicine in terms of the dead and the living.

He put forward this statement, which was also summarized by later generations. It doesn't matter who said it, but what he said is very reasonable, isn't it?
There may have been similar arguments in the previous debates between Chinese and Western medicine, but no one expressed them in the form of theory. Now Li Shengli wants to determine the theory of the traditional Chinese medicine faction.

The fundamental difference between Chinese and Western medicine must be explained. After this thing was proposed, Chinese medicine based on life sciences has changed from a mysterious oriental witchcraft to a mysterious life science category.

The ancients said: If the name is not correct, the words will not be correct. I will not deceive you if you are honest!
Chinese medicine, which stands on the basis of life science, whether it is Chinese or Western medicine, whoever wants to question it must scratch the word "life science". When it comes to life, whether it is Chinese or Western medicine, it is closely related to theology.

Denying traditional Chinese medicine is also a total denial of the scientific system. Life science is also unscientific, and there is no such thing as science.

Based on the commanding heights, it is just a sophistry method. Li Shengli proposed it in China. As long as sporadic words leak out, there will be supporters of traditional Chinese medicine outside to improve it and integrate the life sciences of traditional Chinese medicine into the Western scientific system.

The island country is about to enter a development period. He estimates that in the 90s and [-]s, traditional Chinese medicine will completely become an indispensable part of life sciences.

Because some problems that Western science cannot explain, Chinese medicine can help them explain them.

In the 90s and [-]s, it was the time when the island nation was about to buy the United States. It would be a pleasure to take a ride and let those who would slander Chinese medicine slap themselves in the mouth.

Promoting Chinese medicine as a life science is completely useless in China. For Chinese medicine, it is just a coat.

The 3000-year-old theory of Chinese medicine has long been mature and cannot be changed and no one can change it. What we need to do now is to use the microscopic perspective of Western medicine to improve the too macroscopic theory of Chinese medicine.

"The learning of the dead and the learning of the living, wonderful!
Victory, this view is from a high level. As the old saying goes, you have to live and learn. This old man is eighty-one years old and has learned a lesson. "

After finishing speaking, Mr. Shi stood up and bowed gently to Li Shengli. The dead and the living were simple and easy to understand, but what separated them was a gate of hell.

After listening to Li Shengli's novel statement, all the previous confusions disappeared like clouds of smoke in front of Mr. Shi, and he suddenly became cheerful.

In the debate between Chinese and Western medicine, let alone others’ doubts about Chinese medicine, Shi Lao, a great physician, also has doubts about some of his own theories.

It’s just that the theory of traditional Chinese medicine has matured. Whether you are a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, medical practitioner, medical expert, or the only remaining great physician, if you have questions, there are classics to explain it.

Although I still feel lost after reading the classics, the theory of traditional Chinese medicine is there. It’s just that as a doctor, I can’t understand the ideas of the predecessors.

As soon as the dead and living people were spoken, many problems that seemed to be falling into the clouds were solved.

You can play around with dead people, but not with living people. Chinese medicine is based on living people and has its own complexities.

After reading the theory of traditional Chinese medicine and supplementing it with Western medicine's theory of dead people, 81-year-old Shi Lao felt that his medical skills had taken another step forward.

"Young master uncle's great talk has made my disciples sincerely convinced!"

After Mr. Shi bowed, Master Dong followed. As soon as this word about life and death was spoken, Chinese medicine would become the theory of life and death.

As a master of the Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Master Dong immediately saw the power of the theory of life and death.

Ancient doctors were bound by moral constraints. Although they could dissect corpses, some of them did not know how to dissect human bodies, and they would not, like Western medicine, remove human bones, peel off skins, and hang them up for inspection.

Don’t you see that there are no detailed diagrams of human organs in various medical books and traditional Chinese medicine equipment?

This is the morality of ancient times, and it is also the medical ethics of ancient doctors. To a higher level, it means that human life is precious and the human body is most sincere and cannot be desecrated.

After Master Dong became famous and started a family, it was a good time to catch up and became a member of the Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Like his teacher Shi Lao, he also has doubts about some theories of traditional Chinese medicine. With the development of the times, he also has doubts.

Fallacies are not only found in Chinese medicine, but also in Western medicine. For example, bloodletting is used to treat diseases, and another example is said that barbers are doctors.

Eliminating the bad and retaining the good is the need of the development of the times and the need of Chinese medicine practitioners.

From the six major schools to the thirteen disciplines of TCM, to local schools, to the eight schools of internal medicine, TCM is constantly making progress by removing the bad and retaining the good.

Comparing the medical classics from the Han Dynasty with those from the Tang and Song dynasties, there will be differences; the Yuan and Ming dynasties are also different from those from the Qing dynasty.

Not to mention the medical books produced by different schools and channels, the interpretation of the Four Classics of Traditional Chinese Medicine has been different in each era.

Otherwise, where are the differences between typhoid fever, local prescriptions, warming tonic, febrile disease, etc.?
It’s just that time has changed and things have changed.

"Uncle Li, I will sort out life and death, blood energy, and meridians after I go back. You can look at it later.

However, traditional Chinese medicine medicines and mulberry threads need to be reported to the ministry and department for review.

It's just a theory, I'm afraid it's not enough. "

Seeing that his teacher, Mr. Shi, and his junior brother, Mr. Dong, were both convinced, Master Zhu didn't have anything to worry about.

Li Shengli's theory is indeed deceptive. From the confusion just now to the current life and death debate, it is enough to prove that his theory is profound.

Doubts are not something that can stump this junior uncle. He has even prepared surgical instruments. If he questions theoretically, I'm afraid it would be better to just sit down and listen to the lecture.
