Chapter 93 Opening the Skull with an Ax

"Hua Tuo also made important contributions to medical and health preservation. Hua Tuo created an exercise method called "Five Animal Play". , It can also be used to prevent and treat diseases, and at the same time, it can make the legs and feet light and easy, and it can be used as "qigong."

"When I'm not feeling well, I get up and do one of the scenes. After sweating and soaking the clothes, I put talcum powder on them, and my body feels relaxed and convenient, and I want to eat."

"His student Wu Pu practiced this method and lived to be over 90 years old. His hearing and vision were very good, and his teeth were intact and strong. Wu Qin Xi is a set of medical gymnastics that can stretch the muscles and joints of the whole body."

"The only pity is that the most important book in his life, "The Book of the Green Bag", was not passed down due to its age, but this does not prevent future generations from respecting you as the genius doctor Hua Tuo."

Hua Tuo: I really never thought that the people of later generations would praise me so much, old man, I am really ashamed!

Zhang Yanxi: People of later generations are extremely sorry that the "Qing Nang Shu" of their predecessors cannot be preserved. Can you make a copy of your work after it is completed and give it to me as a reward. I want to donate it to the country.

Hua Tuo: This is a good thing!Everyone thinks highly of me, I will immediately ask my disciples to copy it and give it as a reward!
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, in a medical hall, Hua Tuo excitedly finished his reply to Zhang Yanxi and carefully examined the unfinished "Qing Nang Shu" in his hand. He really didn't expect that his name, Hua Tuo, could be spread. later generations.

Over the years, when the feudal lords were divided and wars broke out, he devoted himself to practicing medicine and traveled to hundreds of villages, large and small, just to treat more people and discover more injuries that he had never seen before.

He thought that everything he had done would be buried under the ground forever after a hundred years. He didn't want to be famous in the world, but only wanted to be worthy of his heart.

But I didn’t expect that his name, Hua Tuo, would be passed down for thousands of years! Thousands of years!Although he did not seek fame or fortune, he still burst into tears after learning that future generations were grateful and praising him.

"Sir, sir," the boy shouted outside the door, "a lot of people suddenly came outside the medical hall. They said they heard that Mr. is here, and they came to see you!"

"If you are injured, please come in. For others, there is no need." Hua Tuo ordered.

"Sir, they are here to visit the miracle doctor and seek treatment."

"Oh? Since you are here for medical treatment, please come in, line up, and I will see you one by one."

"Yes."

The name of Hua Tuo's genius doctor shocked the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, and all the princes were moved after hearing the news.

At Cao Jun's camp, Cao Cao snorted coldly when he saw the man being praised.

Cao Cao: Why don't you say that Hua Tuo is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? He said it so grandly.

Liu Xiu: What do you mean?
Li Shimin: The two cannot be compared. Hua Tuo is greedy for life and afraid of death. He is indeed superb in medical skills. We cannot deny his medical products for the sake of character.

Zhu Di: This is just a small problem. If you were Li Shimin, you would dare to run away after seeing Hua Tuo. With your unpredictable personality, Hua Tuo was killed because of this matter, and you don’t want others not to work with you.

Cao Cao in his later years: How can he wish me this, he wants to open my head, isn't this trying to murder me?

He remembered that he had a headache, so he invited Hua Tuo over in person, hoping to help him diagnose and treat him.

But who knows, at that time Hua Tuo said, "The head disease of Junhou is all caused by the accumulation of wind saliva in the brain. You only need to open the skull with an axe and take out the wind saliva to recover." I open a scoop!Is it really open and I still live?

"This is not Cao Cao's fault, but Hua Tuo's medical skills are obvious to all, but it is impossible to perform a craniotomy."

"First of all, the profession of doctor was a "low-level profession" at that time. People who studied were disdainful of engaging in this profession. Official career and economy were what people aspired to at that time. Among "scholars, farmers, industry and commerce," doctors were subordinate to the third party. The status of a "worker" is quite low."

"What period was it? It was a troubled time! The princes were fighting for hegemony. At this time, a doctor came and said that he wanted to do a craniotomy. Everyone thinks that if you were in the situation at that time, would you believe this doctor's words?"

Liu Che: The princes of the world, the situation is unclear. A doctor said that he can open the skull to treat the disease. I will kill him too. It is very likely that this person was sent by other princes to murder.

Qin Shihuang: If it is the former, Hua Tuo’s craniotomy method is unheard of, it’s up to you whether you dare to try it, but if it’s the latter, such a craniotomy method is no longer a simple method of craniotomy, but It is to use this method to kill Cao Cao.

Yongzheng: It really cannot be blamed on Cao Cao. The situation at that time could not tolerate any mistakes.

"Everyone has thought of it. Hua Tuo proposed this operation. How could Cao Cao not think about it? At this time, Cao Cao still treats Hua Tuo well."

"After Hua Tuo saw Cao Cao's condition at that time, he said: "It is difficult to cure this situation, but it can be extended by time. "It means that this disease is difficult to cure temporarily and it will take time."

"But in the process of treating Cao Cao, he didn't know whether he was really greedy for life and afraid of death. Hua Tuo began to deliberately delay the process and used the excuse that he had something to do at home to go home. When he got home, he pretended that his wife was sick and overdue several times. If you don’t return, Cao Cao asked three times and asked four times, but he didn’t go back, how could Cao Cao kill Hua Tuo without getting angry.”

"This character seems to everyone to have minor problems that are innocuous, but in terms of medical skills, one has to admit that he is brilliant."

"There is no doubt that Hua Tuo died because of Cao Cao. Regardless of Hua Tuo's views on the profession of doctors at that time, he is a shining star in the history of medicine in our country."

"Hua Tuo is not confused by the appearance of symptoms when he sees a doctor. He uses simple medicines and is well versed in the interaction between body and mind. Hua Tuo does not abuse drugs. Hua Tuo attaches great importance to preventive health care. He observes the natural ecology and teaches people to adjust. Breathing and life harmony. But for terminally ill patients, no injections and medicines are given, and they are told frankly.”

"Although Hua Tuo's medical books were all burned, his academic thought has not completely disappeared, especially in the research of Chinese medicine, and his disciple Wu Pu is a famous pharmacist. Many contents of "Wu Pu Materia Medica" are It can be found in the medical books of later generations."

"No matter what Hua Tuo's character is, there is no doubt about his medical skills. As one of the legendary figures in the ancient medical world, his medical skills and contributions have a profound impact on the development of medicine in later generations."

“His concept of “preventing disease”, innovations in acupuncture, herbal therapy, craniotomy, surgical techniques, and his contribution to medical education have all left a mark on the history of medicine in China. It also provides inspiration and reference for our medical development today."
