Physician’s Odyssey

The residence of Old Chinese Doctor Qiu is not far from the airport. The Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle drove at a medium speed. After half an hour, it was tossed on a mountain. A few kilometers away, there was a manor that looked less cosmopolitan. They are almost all village roads, but these villagers are very wealthy.

"Generally speaking, outsiders are not allowed to enter the village casually." Cheng Weiqiang knew that Su Tao could not understand Cantonese, so he spoke of Mandarin which is not standard.

There was a sentry box at the entrance of the manor. Cheng Weiqiang handed over a cigarette. The sentry box was an old man in his sixties who took the cigarette and exchanged a few words with Cheng Weiqiang before letting it go.

The Mercedes Benz parked in front of a small bungalow, and a young and energetic girl walked out of the door. She should be less than twenty years old. Her hair was not long or short. A butterfly hairpin fixed the bangs on her forehead, revealing her white and full forehead. , Her eyebrows are a little thick, not made by drawing eyebrows, but naturally grown, just a simple trimming, nose bridge, red lips, double eyelids, big eyes, wearing a T-shirt and shorts, stepping on a pair of canvas The shoes are somewhat similar to Wang Zuxian when he was young.

"Dad, are you back?" The girl looked at Su Tao secretly and asked with a shy smile.

"Yes, this is Doctor Su, the other two are Mr. Ji and his daughter Ms. Xiangjun." Cheng Weiqiang introduced them with a smile, "Where is your grandfather?"

"Grandpa waited in there for a long time." The girl said with a smile, "I'm going to make tea."

"This is my daughter Cheng Ying, 19 years old this year. After graduating from high school, she studied Chinese medicine at home. Unfortunately, she has not very good understanding. Now she can only help with medicine." Cheng Weiqiang glanced at Su Tao intriguingly. "Now my father The biggest problem is that I can't pass on my medical skills. I can barely survive for a few years, and there will be few talents among the younger generation."

"Laodou, don't talk nonsense, Xichun got the true story of Grandpa, he will definitely be able to carry our Cheng Family Medical Clinic in the future." Cheng Ying walked towards her face holding a white tea can, hearing her father's worries. Said seriously.

"Xichun's talent is good, but it will take at least more than ten years to become a qualified successor to the Cheng Family Medical Clinic." Cheng Weiqiang and Su Tao explained, "My master created his own based on my father's medical skills. I have a set of needles called Qiu’s Twenty-seven Needles. Only when I have learned a certain level can I be qualified to inherit from my teacher. I have been practicing since the age of twelve, and only now I have learned 20 needles. As for my apprentice Xichun only got the ninth shot, and only if he got the 18th shot can he be qualified to inherit the Cheng family's medical clinic."

Although Su Tao has never seen Qiu's 27 needles, he has not been able to finish it after practicing for half his life alone. This shows that it is very difficult. It is not only the outer skill, but also the essence and profound meaning.

"Old Chinese Doctor Qiu, what's the relationship with your father?" Ji Xiangjun felt that the relationship inside was a bit messy, and asked in a low voice.

"Old Chinese medicine practitioner Qiu and my father were also teachers and friends. He smuggled into our village from the mainland and died nine deaths. My father and the villagers found him and thought he was pitiful, so they kept him. Later my father found out that he would Chinese medicine, plus my family’s original medical clinic, the two supported each other and made the Cheng’s medical clinic a little famous. In fact, in terms of medical skills, the master is much better than my father. But he is grateful to my father for the kindness of taking shelter. , So I have been practicing medicine in the Cheng Family Medical Center. My father died of illness ten years ago, and I treat Master as my own father.” Cheng Weiqiang explained patiently.

Su Tao said with a smile: "I have seen anecdotes about Old Chinese Doctor Qiu. It is said that he used this set of needles to bring a dead person back to life. It is really amazing."

"That's a false rumor. Where can people live when they die? It's just that the patient's life signs are almost gone. My master cured the patient with 27 needles." Cheng Weiqiang is a very honest elder. , Without any pretensions, speak straightforwardly.

Su Tao has a very good impression of Cheng Weiqiang. He is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. Every word and deeds are ethics and medical ethics are upright. Only then can he become a famous doctor of the generation.

Several people talked and walked to the wide garden behind the bungalow.

Huaxia people are different from foreigners. Foreigners like to play with flowers and plants in the front yard, while Huaxia people like to make a whole vegetable plot or a rockery garden in the backyard.

Old Chinese Doctor Qiu was sitting on a stool with a fan in his hand. Su Tao was a little surprised, because according to the data, Old Chinese Doctor Qiu was very old, 90 years old, but he was not only tall and straight, but also his skin. It was very tight and showed no signs of aging. At first glance, it looked like an old man in his sixties.

Old Chinese Doctor Qiu said with a smile: "Welcome, welcome!"

Su Tao discovered that Old Chinese Doctor Qiu still had a good tooth, and he admired him, wondering if Old Chinese Doctor Qiu really mastered the secret of longevity?

In the great world, a mountain is higher than a mountain. Su Tao’s medical skills are good and have received many recognitions, but he never felt that he was the person with the highest medical skills in the world. He knew that there must be medical skills better than himself in this world. Yes, as for the research in a certain field surpassing one's own, they are countless.

For example, Song Sichen's diagnostic skills are several times better than his own. As for Dou Fanggang's ability to prescribe prescriptions, he is also better than himself.

As for the old Chinese doctor Qiu in front of him, his knowledge of health preservation has reached a level beyond his reach.

"It's an honor to meet Senior Qiu." Su Tao said with sincere emotion, "I originally saw your photo in the information, thinking it was taken by you many years ago, but I didn't expect you to be so young, which is really shocking. "

Old Chinese doctor Qiu smiled faintly: "For so many years, people have been asking me why I can maintain so well. I was curious at first, but then I realized that I would often experiment with myself, take some drugs, and feel The effect, over time, unknowingly improved their physique. Of course, this is risky. Not everyone is as innocuous as I am. Many people take so many medicines, but they will be affected by the side effects of the medicine. , The body is injured."

It is difficult for ordinary people to understand, but Su Tao feels the same. His physique is even better than that of ordinary people. Since he was a child, he took a bath and tried a lot of drugs. "Physique.Hundreds of poisons do not invade, not really any poison, it can't hurt yourself, but it is relatively resistant.

When some fierce medicinal materials can also resist, ordinary minor illnesses and pains will naturally not be infested.

Su Tao nodded and said with emotion: "Senior dared to test the medicine, which is really admirable."

Old Chinese medicine doctor Qiu laughed blankly. "Mainly, I am really curious. Whenever I find a new prescription, I want to know what the taste of the drug will be after drinking it, what effect it will have, and whether it will bring it What special side effects come, and then I want to take the initiative to experience it."

Su Tao knew that Old Doctor Qiu was joking. If he really believed him, then he would be too simple.Su Tao smiled and said, "It takes courage to try a medicine."

Old Chinese Doctor Qiu fell on Ji Chengjun's body, and raised his brows slightly, "He is the lupus erythematosus patient?"

Su Tao nodded and said, "Yes, please ask senior to help him diagnose and treat."

Old Chinese Doctor Qiu looked solemn and pointed at the stone table not far away, "Let's go sit there."

After Ji Chengjun settled down, Old Chinese Doctor Qiu began to cut Ji Chengjun's pulse. After a while, he asked Su Tao, "I should have taken liver-protecting medicine recently?"

Su Tao said: "The previous symptoms were related to liver qi, so a liver nourishing prescription was prescribed."

Old Chinese medicine doctor Qiu stood up and walked away, while Su Tao followed him tacitly.

When it is confirmed that the conversation between the two will not be heard by Ji Chengjun, Old Chinese Doctor Qiu asked in a deep voice: "The career is not going well, which leads to stagnation of liver qi, and thus got the godsend?"

Su Tao did not tell Old Chinese Doctor Qiu about Ji Chengjun’s dismissal before. Seeing that he could guess one or two through the pulse examination, he nodded and said: “Because of being framed, he was exempted from official position, and his heart became puzzled, which led to a lack of qi. It's okay, so a prescription for protecting the liver and nourishing qi was prescribed."

"It turns out that the official career is not going well." Old Chinese medicine doctor Qiu shook his head, "That will be difficult. Unless the official is restored to his post, it will be difficult for him to open the knot, but this is impossible. The knot is puzzled. This lupus erythematosus is even more difficult to treat."

"Senior Qiu, I saw it thoroughly, and I was also a little bit burnt." Su Tao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"I have a way, maybe it will work." Old Chinese medicine doctor Qiu said, touching his chin, "It's just that I might have to ask an old friend to help."

Su Tao frowned and said, "I don't know who this friend is?"

Old Chinese Doctor Qiu smiled and said, "You'll know it later."

After speaking, Old Chinese Doctor Qiu called Cheng Weiqiang and gave a few words in his ear.

Cheng Weiqiang nodded, and left in a hurry.

Although I don’t know what medicine Qiu’s Chinese medicine gourd sells, Su Tao is still very confident in Qiu’s Chinese medicine, and he should have his own ideas and judgments in treating Ji Chengjun’s lupus erythematosus.

Although just a few brief conversations, Su Tao learned a lot from Old Chinese Doctor Qiu, and he felt the same as when he faced Song Dou and the master of Taoism. These older generations of Chinese medicine masters have themselves in them. Many things worth learning.

Cheng Ying took the three of them to the second floor and arranged three rooms a long time ago. "If there is any place you need help, just open your mouth and treat this as your own home."

"Thank you." Su Tao said with a smile.

Cheng Ying paused suddenly and lowered her voice: "Could you please do me a favor?"

"Oh? Please speak." Su Tao said puzzled.

"If you wait for someone to challenge you, just ignore him and treat him as an idiot." Cheng Ying flushed.

"Oh, isn't it the young man named Xichun?" Su Tao quickly reacted.
