Let’s talk about Liaozhai at the beginning, I scared all the fans on the Internet to death

Chapter 178 Help me find a book, "Tiangong Kaiwu". (Please subscribe)
"Brothers, I heard that "Compendium of Materia Medica" has been published. Has anyone read it?"

"I saw it, but I'm not a medical major, so I don't understand it very well, but I admire it very much."

"Forget it, don't be impressed. I major in medicine. I originally rushed to buy the Compendium of Materia Medica, but I found that there were a lot of errors in the Compendium of Materia Medica."

"Uh, no, what's wrong?"

"For example, there are a lot of messy folk remedies and a series of superstitious medicines in it. I don't think they have any effect at all."

"Is this what you think?"

"It's not just me, almost all of us in the profession think so. There are also people who have tried these prescriptions, but they don't have much effect. Of course, it's not that all of them are ineffective, but there are too many mistakes in them. It’s okay to use it as a reference, but if you treat this book as a medical encyclopedia or a medical bible, it might kill someone.”

"Uh……"

Jiang Ning was right as he expected.

The publication of Compendium of Materia Medica suddenly attracted a lot of criticism.

Especially in the pharmaceutical category.

Fortunately, Jiang Ning wrote a series of precautions at the beginning of the Compendium of Materia Medica.

This prevents everyone from criticizing this work too much.

But even so.

The publication of such a work only made people in the industry take a look at it, and then paid little attention to it.

but.

They didn't pay attention.

Another medical research team set their sights on the "Compendium of Materia Medica".

This team is the research team led by Teacher Tu.

After Teacher Tu came up with an idea last time, she led her research team to extract a brand new organic compound from Artemisia annua.

Everything is going great.

While Teacher Tu led the team to tackle the problem, they quickly extracted a brand new organic compound from Artemisia annua.

Teacher Tu named this organic compound artemisinin.

However, although artemisinin was extracted, the effect was not particularly satisfactory.

Although not ideal.

But this gave Teacher Tu the direction.

This proves.

Among many ancient Chinese medicine prescriptions, many people think they are ineffective, but they are actually effective.

Just because of various reasons, this kind of effectiveness cannot be completely popularized.

to this end.

Teacher Tu led the team again.

This time.

They did not exclusively extract it from herbs such as Artemisia annua.

They also turned their attention to other materia medica.

For example, the herb "Artemisia annua" is a close relative of Artemisia annua.

As for why Artemisia annua was chosen, this is recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica.

Correct.

This is one of the Materia Medica books that was criticized by many people as soon as it was published.

did not expect.

After such a transfer and refinement, Teacher Tu extracted artemisinin from Artemisia annua, which can inhibit malaria parasites by 100%.

This is the end.

When Professor Tu published this research in The Lancet, the world was shocked.

At the same time.

After learning about Teacher Tu's research process, the previously published "Compendium of Materia Medica" was sold out instantly.

……

"Cool, so cool."

"Teacher Jiang Ning, this is going to fly again."

"No, this has already flown out of the earth."

Yes.

If some people have made a series of complaints about this book before.

Then.

The latest research results published by Teacher Tu are completely an endorsement of the "Compendium of Materia Medica".

"Brothers, which bookstore sells Compendium of Materia Medica? I want to buy a set."

"It's sold out now. If you want to buy it, you have to wait for the next batch. However, it seems that Teacher Jiang Ning also uploaded one online. By the way, what do you use it for?"

"I want to study some of the remedies in it."

"Well, brother, I think you should not mess around without certain medical knowledge. Although the Compendium of Materia Medica is good, Teacher Jiang Ning also said it. This book was compiled hundreds of years ago, and it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes in the compilation of the book. Certain errors and omissions.”

"I know that I won't try some of the more popular ones, but I will try some of the safer ones."

"That's good."

Don't say it yet.

There are quite a few people who have this idea.

in particular.

Among them, there are also many people who have done research on medicine.

Although they also know.

There are indeed many mistakes here, but there are even more correct ones.

Also.

still have a question.

What you currently think is a mistake is just judged from a modern perspective. Whether it is a mistake or not is hard to say.

then.

A series of researchers, however, dared not say more.

Whether it is wrong or not, you will know after experimenting.

If there is any problem, you will understand after doing more research.

Whether there is a problem or not, if you think about it in a different way, it will be different.

then.

With the entry of a series of researchers, there are many herbal prescriptions in the Compendium of Materia Medica, but they have become popular varieties.

"I would like to recommend to you a recipe recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", Dew."

"What's the use of dew?"

"There are many useful products, such as flower dew. In spring and autumn, when the dew is heavier, collect it in the morning and rub it on the skin. It is much better than a lot of skin care products."

"real or fake?"

"No, look at my skin. This was a week ago, and this is now."

"Nimma, you're so awesome."

"Of course, I tested it myself, no problem."

"Hahaha, this brother did a good experiment. I also experimented with a variety. That is Cypress Leaf Dew. The Compendium of Materia Medica says that washing your eyes with this dew can improve your vision. As you all know, my son is short-sighted and has no symptoms. The solution is to wear 800-degree glasses every day. In the past week, I used the dew collected to wash my son’s eyes. I was a little worried at first and didn’t dare to use too much dew, so I just let my son get a little bit on it. After confirming that there was no problem, I increased the dosage. As a result, my son had his eyesight tested yesterday, and it turns out that he only needs to wear 600-degree glasses."

"Holy shit, this is awesome, is there anything more?"

"I did some research on leek leaf dew, and I found that this dew can have a certain effect on vitiligo."

"I also found out..."

accidentally.

However, all walks of life have set off a craze for studying the "Compendium of Materia Medica".

As the initiator, Jiang Ning, at this time, put his interest in another book.

……

This book.

It's called "Tiangong Kaiwu".

but.

This is a book written around the same time as Li Shizhen.

but.

When Jiang Ning searched for this book in the system, he discovered it.

This book does not exist in the system.

This left Jiang Ning stunned.

"Why not?"

Logically speaking, it is impossible.

How could such a high-tech, high-tech, high-space, high-dimensional thing like the system not exist?

According to Jiang Ning’s previous understanding.

As long as something exists in this world, then the system will exist.

But "Tiangong Kaiwu" clearly exists, why doesn't the system?This puzzled Jiang Ning.

but.

After getting to know Song Yingxing, the author of "Tiangong Kaiwu", Jiang Ning probably knew the reason.

……

"Brothers, I want to ask you all to do me a favor."

One night, Jiang Ning logged into KuaiDou and conducted a live broadcast.

This made a lot of netizens excited: "Teacher Jiang Ning, what are you doing, what are you doing, as long as we can help, we have to help even if we are trying to sell iron."

It's a joke of course.

However, this is the first time Jiangning has asked everyone for help since his live broadcast.

This naturally made everyone extremely interested.

"I want everyone to help me find a book."

"what book?"

"Heavenly creation."

"Heavenly Creation?"

Everyone shook their heads: "It seems that they have never heard of this book. Teacher Jiang Ning, can you tell me what this book is about?"

"This is a book that introduces domestic agriculture, handicrafts, and comprehensive technologies during the Ming Dynasty."

"About the technical aspects?"

"Yes."

"Who wrote this?"

"Song Yingxing."

"Who is Song Yingxing?"

"Then let me introduce it to everyone."

There is no "Tiangong Kaiwu" in the system.

Obviously.

Everyone doesn’t know much about Song Yingxing.

Also.

Jiang Ning also checked a lot of information in this world.

There are very few records about Song Yingxing, and some are only one or two sentences.

"Song Yingxing was a scientist in the Ming Dynasty. Well, for the time being, we will use the title of scientist to call him. He is from Fengxin, Jiangxi. When he was very young, Song Yingxing was very smart. When he was 29 years old, Song Yingxing and his brother Song Yingsheng both passed the national examination. Song Yingxing He got the 3rd place in the examination, while his brother Song Yingsheng got the 6th place. They were both successful candidates in one subject, and they became the talk of Fengxin for a while. But unfortunately, after they won the examination, they both failed five or six times in a row. I didn’t pass the Jinshi exam.”

"Although he did not pass the Jinshi examination, Song Yingxing is very open-minded. He also has a hobby, that is, he likes to collect a series of technologies of the dynasty. Such as agricultural technology, dyeing technology, textile technology, salt-making technology, and sugar-making technology Technology, wine-making technology, and even firearms equipment technology. At the same time, in order to pass on the technology invented by China for thousands of years, Song Yingxing plans to write a book, which is called Tiangong Kaiwu."

"It's a pity that although this book introduces in detail the various technologies invented by China over thousands of years, it is of no use for fame and progress. Scholars don't like to read such technical books. What they like is to read about various technologies. They like to read books that can be useful for them to gain fame. Therefore, although this Tiangong Kaiwu was completed, it has not attracted much attention from others since it was completed."

"It wasn't until the Qing Dynasty that when the authorities in the Qing Dynasty discovered that "Tiangong Kaiwu" wrote about the Ming Dynasty and Chongzhen, and was very protective of the Ming Dynasty, they ordered the book to be banned. This ban, however, It lasted for more than 300 years. Until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, this work of creation was lost."

Same as before.

It is extremely difficult for some ancient classics to be handed down.

Or it was lost when it was passed down.

Or there is no money to even publish.

There are.

Even if it was published, it would be banned.

"I'll go and it will be lost?"

Everyone was stunned: "Teacher Jiang Ning, you don't even have an original copy?"

"If I have an only copy, why should I ask everyone to help me?"

"Oh, I understand, Teacher Jiang Ning, I'll sign up."

"I also signed up."

"I want to go too."

Many people raised their hands and said excitedly.

Jiang Ning didn't understand: "What are you signing up for? Are you going to help me find books?"

"correct."

"Do you know where to find it?"

"Dig the imperial tomb."

"I……"

Ok.

Jiang Ning was going crazy: "Brothers, don't talk nonsense. The imperial tomb cannot be dug casually."

"I would like to emphasize again that my original copy was not found by digging up the imperial tomb."

"In addition, the book "Tiangong Kaiwu" does not ask everyone to dig up the imperial tombs."

This kind of thing must be emphasized again and again.

otherwise.

The reputation of this tomb robber was really confirmed by himself.

"Uh, Teacher Jiang Ning, if you don't dig up the imperial tomb, how can we find it?"

"I do not know either."

Jiang Ning also shook his head: "Although this book has been lost, I believe that this book must still exist in this world. Maybe, it is in a corner, waiting for us to discover it."

"But, Teacher Jiang Ning, your introduction is a bit simple. Even if we discover it, we don't know if it is a divine creation. Is there anything more detailed?"

"Have."

Jiang Ning nodded and continued: "Tiangong Kaiwu is divided into 18 chapters, namely "Nai Li", "Nai Fu", "Zhang Shi", "Qui Jing", "Zuo Xian", "Gan Xi", and "Ointment". ”, “Potters”, “Smelting”, “Boats and Carts”, “Hammers”, “Burn Stones”, “Finishing”, “Hardware”, “Good Soldiers”, “Pictures”, “Qu Tillers” and “Pearls and Jade” "."

"Nai Li introduces the technology of grains and grain cultivation. Although this seems simple, Song Yingxing believes that human beings themselves cannot survive for a long time. People can live because they can rely on grains to feed themselves; but grains cannot It grows by itself, but needs to be planted by humans. The properties of the soil have changed over time, and the types and characteristics of grains will also differ with different soil and water. Those children of wealthy families who are not doing their jobs regard working people as Sinners; those scholars regard the word "farmer" as an insult. They eat all day long and only know the deliciousness of breakfast and dinner, but forget where the food comes from. There are so many such people! Therefore, Song Yingxing is the first This article introduces grains.”

This statement was applauded by everyone in the live broadcast room.

"What a good Naili, what a good Song Yingxing."

"Song Yingxing's ideas are good. Even if such ideas are applied to our modern times, we still attach great importance to grains. Moreover, seeds have been upgraded to a strategic level."

"That's necessary. No matter how awesome it is, if there is no food, what will we eat? All of a sudden, I felt the greatness of this book."

"Yes, it feels even greater than the Compendium of Materia Medica."

Everyone said excitedly.

A netizen in the live broadcast room asked again: "Teacher Jiang Ning, what is "Naifu"?"

"Naifu is for Naifu clothes, which is the technology of weaving. Song Qingxing said that human beings are the spiritual leaders of all things, with all five senses and whole body limbs. The noble emperors rule the world wearing magnificent dragon robes, and the poor people They wear rough blouses and woolen cloth to keep out the cold in winter and to cover their bodies in summer, thus distinguishing themselves from animals.

People spun the raw materials into cloth with patterns, and then embroidered and dyed them to create gorgeous brocades.Although human looms are popular all over the world, how many people have actually seen the ingenuity of flower looms?Scholars and scholars have learned the original meaning of words like "governing chaos" and "economics" since childhood, but they have never seen its actual image throughout their lives. Don't people feel sorry for this?So, here is Naifu. "

Jiang Ning kept talking.

Nai Fu is the same as Nai Li.

One is grain technology, and the other is textile technology.

Put it now.

One is the technology mastered by farmers, and the other is the technology mastered by tailors and weaving technicians.

This originally seemed like a very low-end and unattractive thing.

But through Song Yingxing's explanation, people were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

original.

These technologies that they had previously looked down upon were so meaningful.

If there were no such technologies in this world.

Then what hope is there in the whole world?

same.

Why are Naili and Naifu placed in the first and second chapters?

That lies in the importance of these two.

On the contrary, the gold and jade technology at the back was placed last.

This is not accidental.

This was Song Yingxing's deliberate arrangement.

Without him.

In his mind, grain is more valuable than gold and jade.

Those gold and jade that seem extremely precious in people's eyes are actually the most low-end.

Those grains that are looked down upon by people are the most precious.

This is an extremely profound thought.

When Jiang Ning said this, everyone felt their hearts tremble.

They had a sense of enlightenment.

Although they haven't read the book "Tiangong Kaiwu" yet, after listening to this explanation, everyone just feels that their lives have been sublimated to a certain extent.

"Teacher Jiang Ning, stop talking, we will help you find "Tiangong Kaiwu"."

All the netizens in the live broadcast room said in unison.
