Invincible Witch Doctor King

Chapter 344 Zhao Tian's Basic Skills
After Duan Lan left, Zhao Tian began to organize the medicines. The medicines he bought were all unsalted, that is, fresh, with mud, leaves and so on. These had to be cleaned up.

When Zhao Tian was in the village, whether it was cleaning up the medicine he collected from the mountains, or he often did it at Jiuye's place, he was very familiar with it. There was a water faucet in Duan Shi's yard, and he took it directly. Just start cleaning up.

"Old Ding, it seems that you have found a good apprentice."

Duan Shi doesn't know medicine, but he can read people. Zhao Tian handles things neatly, which is a very outstanding characteristic.

Ding Hao nodded, "You're right, it's true."

In the past, when I studied medicine, I started with the first steps, such as collecting herbs and washing them. After such a process, I would have a certain understanding of medicines. These are very useful for becoming a good doctor.Now it is different from before. The students recruited into the university have no such opportunities at all. What they have learned is all from books, and they don’t have much practical experience at all. How can they be cultivated in this way? the doctor coming?This is especially true for Chinese medicine.Now the students who graduate from school, the skill they have learned is to treat doctors according to the book. If they remember what is said in the book, they will read it, otherwise they will not read it.

Another problem is that the time for students to study is too short now, only four years, at most five or six years. In the past, they followed the master when they were young, and it took at least ten years. There is only enough time. Only then can good doctors be trained.

The number of doctors trained now is too much, but the quality is not very good. Of course, this is not to say that it is not good. After all, there is indeed a shortage of doctors now. It is just that if you want to use the current method to train famous doctors, that is not good. too likely.

One of the important reasons why Ding Hao stayed in the school was to see if he could find a suitable successor.

Zhao Tian has already brought him a huge awakening, he has already shown an amazing talent in acupuncture, and the Jiu Ye who followed him before has also laid a solid foundation for him, that is to say, before he discovered Zhao Tian, ​​Zhao Tian Tian has already practiced the basic skills, and now from the fact that Zhao Tian can buy back good quality medicinal materials and clean them up by himself, it can be seen that Zhao Tian has undergone relatively strict training since he was a child.

"If you have the opportunity to meet that Jiu Ye, you must thank him."

Ding Hao knew that all of this was due to Lord Jiu, otherwise it would have been impossible.

Zhao Tian carefully cleaned the medicine in his hands. This was a habit he had developed since he was a child. He learned a lot from being with Master Jiu. Although these things were not too advanced, as Ding Hao could tell , It is indeed a good habit to develop and a good foundation to lay.

In fact, Zhao Tian didn't feel this matter when he was still in the village, because the things Jiu Ye asked for were too common, but after he got to university, especially when he started reading a lot of medical books under Ding Hao's guidance, he didn't know. How important those things really are.

To be able to cure Ke Tong and others, of course the key is to use supernatural powers, but without the solid basic skills taught by Master Jiu, it would be impossible. For example, before giving Ke Tong and Sima Rui When treating illnesses, massage played a big role, which was learned from Master Jiu.

Zhao Tian really didn't feel much about these things before, but now he slowly realizes how important they are.

Another example is smashing medicine. Although I said that I was able to smash the medicine out with the help of the ability of perspective, the most basic techniques for smashing medicine were taught by Master Jiu. ?
Zhao Tian quickly cleaned up the bought medicines, and then found something to dry them up. After doing all this, he sat down next to Duan Shi and Ding Hao.

"Zhao Tian, ​​have you learned all these?"

Although Ding Hao could see it, he was still a little curious. Zhao Tian's hands and feet were very neat, which could not be achieved in a short while.

"I had a serious illness when I was a child, and it was rescued by Master Jiu. Since then, I have gone to his place to work with him when I have time, sorting out a medicine or something, and there are mountains everywhere in my place. Going to the mountains to collect herbs is an important thing for us. The income... slowly these things are learned."

Ding Hao secretly sighed, if Zhao Tian is not a doctor, these things he experienced are actually meaningless, but if he wants to become a doctor like he is now, what he experienced when he was a child is very useful.

Working with Master Jiu, and picking herbs, these are very rare basic skills, and according to Zhao Tian’s words, the process definitely took more than ten years, which can almost be said by current medical students It's rare!
Duan Lan is back, what Zhao Tian is looking for is very common, in fact, she just went to the nearest traditional Chinese medicine store, and just bought it back from that store if she paid for it - as long as she has money, such a thing is very easy She did it, of course she is a very rich person.

"Okay, that's fine."

Zhao Tian glanced at what Duan Lan returned, and nodded lightly. It is really made of a stone, and it seems to be quite old. The surface of the stone has been polished very smooth after many years of use. , especially the place where the stone pestle is held.

Looking through the medicines that had been drying before, he found that the water on the surface had evaporated, so Zhao Tian took them down one by one and slowly threw them into the stone mortar. During the throwing process, the stone pestle held in his right hand also began to Pound one after another.

Ding Hao didn't speak any more when Zhao Tianyi started making medicine, but watched carefully.

Zhao Tian’s first movements were nothing special, they were heavy, and this was to smash the medicine that had just been put down. However, after a while, he realized that he had misjudged him. , but the key is that he can hit the medicine thrown into the stone mortar every time. You must know that those medicines are irregular, and it is not easy to hit the target with the first hit.

After realizing this problem, Ding Hao looked more carefully. If it was true, Zhao Tian didn't even look at the stone mortar. After throwing down every small piece of medicinal material, the stone pestle would go down with him, and it was very accurate. on the block.

Ding Hao had made medicine himself when he was under his master, and he knew that this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and it would not work without a few years of hard work.

"Boom boom boom!"

The stone pestle in Zhao Tian's hand was lifted and dropped very rhythmically, and soon all the medicines were thrown into the stone mortar for him. After the last medicine cube was thrown in, all the medicine cubes that had been thrown in before had been crushed. Half broken.

The stone pestle was pressed on the medicine block, Zhao Tian didn't lift it up again, but continued to crush it with his hands.

Ding Hao's heart skipped a beat again, and Zhao Tian's move made him even more skillful.

It is a very traditional way to pound medicine with a stone mortar and pestle, but it is also a very laborious way, so some machines such as grinding powder and slicing are invented now, but this way is actually wrong.

A very simple thing is that if the traditional method of pounding medicine is used, all kinds of medicines will be mixed slowly and fully during the process of smashing, and even a "reaction" will appear. Only the best medicine can exert a huge medicinal effect.

After using the machine, it will be easy. No matter how difficult the medicine is, it will be turned into powder after being put into the machine, and then mixed together. It doesn’t mean that this method is not good-the advantage The reason is that it can be produced in large quantities, but when it comes to the efficacy of medicine, there is really no way to compare it with the one that is slowly pounded by manpower.

Ding Hao is too aware of the difference. This is actually the real reason why some Chinese medicine practitioners still use manual methods to dispense medicines as long as they treat serious diseases.

It's a pity that with the invention of machines, there are fewer and fewer people who can pound medicine by hand. After all, it is too laborious.

Zhao Tian now presses the stone pestle on the medicine, and then uses the strength of his wrist to continue pressing the half-broken medicine in the stone mortar. This requires how to use force while saving effort. This also requires hard practice. And looking at Zhao Tian's relaxed appearance and not even a small piece of medicine or a drop of medicinal juice splashed out by the side team, we can tell that he has controlled it very well.

Ding Hao knew that not to mention now, even when he was in his prime, he couldn't do it.Seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh that the Ninth Master Zhao Tian mentioned was really well trained.

Zhao Tian didn't feel that Ding Hao was paying attention to him. Now that the pounding of medicine has entered the most critical time, he is now fully focused on the stone mortar and pestle, "seeing" the medicine juice. The whole process of pounding medicine is actually to The concoction of various medicines is fully mixed, so that the maximum medicinal effect can be produced.It is actually very difficult to do this. Pounding medicine does not mean crushing the medicine in the stone mortar with a stone pestle and then mixing them together.

Zhao Tian's spirit became more and more concentrated. At this time, he was not as relaxed as he was at the beginning. Beads of sweat the size of soybeans began to appear on his forehead, and the movements of his hands became faster and faster. In the end, he even gave up. People have a feeling that this is definitely not done by human hands, but by machines.

"Papa...boom..."

Except for the occasional sound of stone mortar and pestle colliding when Zhao Tian pounded, there was no other sound in the yard. Ding Hao and others looked at Zhao Tian as if they were stupid.
