Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 154 The Magical Use of Eel Blood

I saw that Wang Ping'an wrote three kinds of medicines on the small prescription, which were rhubarb, vipers and earthworms. These three medicines were ground into powder and then mixed with light wine.

Wang Pingan reached out and patted the thick stack of prescriptions, and said: "These prescriptions are not poisonous, but they can't cure Mrs. Tai's illness! My prescription looks poisonous, but it can make Mrs. Tai normal. Defecation, she can only undergo follow-up treatment if she defecates normally, so this prescription must be used!"

Feng Ningrong was holding the prescription, with sweat on his forehead, he pointed to the word viper, and said: "This viper is a very poisonous thing, if it bites someone, it will kill you within five steps. The name of the five-step snake, give it to my mother, just in case..."

Wang Pingan shook his head and said: "When he was alive, there was a huge poison, but after being used as medicine, it will be brewed. Feng Shishu don't have to worry. Mrs. Tai does not need strong medicine for this disease, but it is difficult to cure. Even if this strong medicine is used After a long period of time, the condition will get better!"

Feng Ningrong was stunned for a long time, and then said: "Then use it. Serious illness requires strong medicine. I understand this truth." He looked at his mother on the bed, his eyes were moist, and he shook his head.

But Wang Pingan said: "Don't worry, Uncle Feng, this is just a small prescription. I haven't officially prescribed it yet!"

Feng Ningrong hurriedly turned his head and asked, "But we still need to use something extremely poisonous?"

Wang Pingan thought for a while, then frowned and said, "That's not true, but some medicinal materials are very precious and not easy to find."

Xiao Yu'er suddenly interjected: "We are guarding the Pharmacy Bureau, are we afraid that no medicine will be available?"

Wang Pingan shook his head and said, "That's not sure!" He said something, but he didn't immediately prescribe a prescription. Regarding stroke, there are many ways to treat it with traditional Chinese medicine, but which way to use depends on consider carefully.

The age of Wang Ping'an, or not the age, but the past few years are just a few years before the big outbreak in the history of traditional Chinese medicine. In the words of modern people, it is the darkest years before dawn!

In a few years, when Li Zhi came to court, he would order to compile a pharmacopoeia called "Tang Materia Medica", which is the first pharmacopoeia in the world, more than 800 years earlier than the earliest foreign pharmacopoeia "Nuremberg Pharmacopoeia".

It was the birth of this pharmacopoeia that led to the explosion of traditional Chinese medicine. Based on this pharmacopoeia, countless famous doctors appeared, and at the same time began to write books and biographies, such as Sun Simiao's "A Thousand Golden Prescriptions". They were all recorded, printed into medical books and handed down from generation to generation, which largely broke the shackles of mastery, allowing more people to participate, so as to accumulate again, and then wait for the outbreak. In the Song Dynasty, it really ushered in another big outbreak. !
Coincidentally, the past few years that Wang Pingan lived in happened to be before the outbreak. As long as a few more years passed, the situation would change drastically. The current situation in the medical field of Datang is that each has a teacher, each has a secret recipe, and each treats his own Yes, everyone has his own name!

Mrs. Feng's stroke hemiplegia, can it be cured, it can be cured, this is for sure.But which method to use, but really have to think about it!Don't look at the Shangyao Bureau in Luoyang, but some medicines may not be available!
Wang Pingan frowned, thought for a long time, and then said: "A stroke caused by excessive alcoholism, and from the pulse, the pulse syndrome is combined, my nephew thinks it is alcoholism that causes dampness, dampness produces heat, and heat produces wind. The wind moves from within and is ready to explode at the touch of a button, causing half of the body to be unkind."

Feng Ningrong said: "Is it necessary to use extremely poisonous substances? Nephew Wang, if it is possible not to use extremely poisonous substances, it is best not to use them. Medicines are three-point poisonous, let alone extremely poisonous substances!"

Wang Ping'an frowned even tighter, scratched his head, and said, "Fortunately, Mrs. Tai's spiritual consciousness is clear now, and there is no cold or heat outside. This is due to her strong physique, and it is not too late for treatment now. So, it's okay. No strong medicine is needed, but this prescription is difficult to cure!"

Feng Ningrong heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that the highly poisonous medicinal materials could not be used, and said, "If you think about it carefully, you will definitely figure it out!"

Wang Ping'an thought for a long time. For Mrs. Feng's stroke symptoms and the cause of the cause, if there is a sure-fire cure, I am afraid I have to use the method of Zhu Danxi, a famous doctor in the Yuan Dynasty. However, the original prescription prescribed by Zhu Danxi has been lost in modern times. Only the modified formula can be used.

Bringing up his pen, Wang Ping'an began to prescribe a prescription. He said: "Mrs. Tai's disease is not easy to cure. You have to take decoction first, and then use ointment. Even if everything goes well, it will take two months to cure this disease." Already!"

"As long as it can be cured, it doesn't matter anything else!" Hearing that it can be cured, Feng Ningrong finally showed a little smile on his face, thinking: "It seems that Wang Ping'an is indeed better than that appointed life and death, at least he speaks quite well. Reliable, and did not draw any conclusions indiscriminately!"

Wang Pingan first wrote down a prescription, looked at it, took a pen to write down a few medicines, added a few more medicines, then copied it again, read the new prescription again, changed the dosage of a few medicines after a while, and copied it again !
He picked up the prescription and said: "This medicine can be taken in the form of decoction first, mainly to extinguish wind and dampness, activate collaterals and clear liver. After Mrs. Tai's hands and feet can move, then change the soup into ointment, and use it every day. Take five or six qian in boiled water, and after about a month, the effect will be obvious... Oh, it seems that two more medicines need to be added."

Putting the prescription back on the table, he added two more medicines, one was black donkey hide glue and the other was turtle glue.After I finished writing, I thought about it, and said: "This medicine tastes very bad, it's very unpalatable, I'm afraid I have to add more rock sugar!" So, I added flavored rock sugar.

Seeing that Wang Pingan prescribed the prescription so solemnly, Feng Ningrong was very grateful. There were many doctors who prescribed medicine for his mother, but Wang Pingan was the only one who changed the prescription again and again, and the fastest one was the one who designated life and death. , Just say that there is no rule of law!
Wang Pingan didn't know that Feng Ningrong was comparing himself with that "Number 2 Doctor in the World" in his heart, and he didn't know that he and Sun Simiao's disciple had exchanged hands without meeting each other.

He said to Feng Ningrong: "Grab this prescription tonight, and start taking it tomorrow morning. But regarding Mrs. Tai's mouth and eyes, you can start treating it tonight."

Feng Ningrong was overjoyed and said, "Can this be cured in advance? I thought it would be treated with medicine together!"

Wang Pingan said: "Mrs. Tai's mouth and eyes are not correct, it seems serious, but as long as you know the cause, treat it first, after taking the decoction tomorrow, then treat it, I guess it will be cured in the morning of the day after tomorrow!"

"Is it so fast? How to treat it, tell me quickly!" Feng Ningrong was overjoyed, he didn't expect that what seemed to be the most serious symptom turned out to be the best cured one.

Wang Pingan pointed to the outside of the house and said, "My nephew passed the kitchen when he came in just now. I don't know if there is any eel in the kitchen? If there is one, you can get one and live it!"

Feng Ningrong shook his head and said: "There is nothing in that kitchen, the emperor is not in Luoyang, the kitchen will not prepare any ingredients, and even if it is there, as long as it is not a holiday, it will not prepare ingredients, that kitchen is used for banquets Your Majesty, there is another kitchen for the emperor to eat in."

Wang Pingan asked, "Can the eel be brought tonight?"

Feng Ningrong said: "What's the difficulty? I have it in my house, so I'll ask someone to fetch it!" He went out of the house, came to the courtyard, and clapped his hands.

The gate of the courtyard opened in response, and the fifth-rank general came in. He actually waited outside the door, Feng Ningrong gave him some instructions, and the general followed the order and left.

Wang Pingan shouted: "Hey, he's actually outside, walk slowly!" He rushed out and shouted: "My prescription needs young mulberry branches as medicine, let him get it together." !"

Feng Ningrong hastily called the general back, ordered again, and then let the general leave again.

Wang Pingan was not idle. He went to the pharmacy, prepared all kinds of medicines, and found out the utensils for decocting medicines. After everything was ready, he asked Feng Ningrong: "Uncle Feng Shi, are we okay if we stay in the palace? Do you want to go to your house?" The Liushoufu?"

Feng Ningrong said: "It doesn't matter, this is the outer court, it doesn't matter if you live here, as long as you don't go back, even though I stay behind, I can't let you go to the harem."

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "I don't dare to wander around. Even if I stay here, I feel a little scared in my heart. That's good too. Mrs. Tai is recuperating here, and it can save me a lot of suffering from bumps."

After a long time, the general ran back. Okay, he was holding a big bucket in his left hand and a big tree branch in his right hand. As soon as he entered the yard, he shouted: "My lord, do you think these are enough? Are they enough?" The subordinates will get it again! There is no eel in the mansion of the lord, so the subordinates went to the big restaurant in the city, and beat up the shopkeeper, so that he can respect him!"

Wang Ping'an came out of the house and said: "Enough is enough, how can I use so much!" But he thought in his heart, this general is so good at flattering, this kind of hard work can't be done by his soldiers, but he has to do it himself, so it's better to stay behind Invite credit in front of adults!
Sure enough, Feng Ningyuan said: "Very good, you did things properly, very good, very good, I will speak well of you in front of General Wei!"

"Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord!" The general went out happily, and went to stand guard outside the courtyard again!
Wang Pingan opened the bucket and saw that there were several big eels in it, all of which were alive. He said: "Okay, it's easy to deal with when you have eels!" He took the bucket into the house, went to the pharmacy, took out needles, and stabbed the eels. Take the blood and apply the eel blood on Mrs. Feng Tai's face.

After painting, Wang Pingan said: "Fortunately Mrs. Tai's illness didn't linger for too long, otherwise the eel blood would be useless!"

Feng Ningyuan asked: "Using eel blood to smear the face, this method has never been heard of, and none of the doctors mentioned it, but it is a folk remedy?"

Wang Pingan shook his head and said: "This is not a folk prescription, but... well, it is a very formal treatment, but it has not been spread!"

The use of eel blood to treat crooked mouth and eyes is recorded in "Shi Yi De Xiao Fang". This book was reviewed and published by Tai Hospital in Yuan Dynasty, so it may not be a folk prescription.

Feng Ningrong snorted, looked at his mother, and said, "In fact, sometimes folk remedies can cure diseases better!"

Wang Pingan hummed, and he went to deal with those young mulberry branches. Now that the necessary medicines are ready, he will prepare the medicines and decoct them in time, so as to treat Mrs. Feng's hemiplegia!
