Mei Xi was able to work in this laboratory and became an assistant to help Professor Qu's formula. Not only because of Qu Yimin's introduction, but also because the old man liked him and how he liked him. In fact, with Mr. Qu's status, some people were willing to be his assistant, but Professor Qu liked Mei Xi to help him, and knew that his family was not in good condition, so he specially asked him to earn an extra living expenses.

Mei Xi is not old, but she is very clever and well-behaved and very happy. Not only that, he also has a quality that Professor Qu likes the most - meticulousness and seriousness. The old man gave undergraduates a big class in the staircase classroom, which taught classic Chinese medicine theories, which was the boring and profound content about "medical arts". Although the old man gave lectures very vividly, most students just listened to stories and did not work hard to study classics to understand them.

This is a common problem for contemporary students. Ancient classic works such as "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases". Modern people have already read very much and can be used as hypnotic reading materials. Who can study the essence word by word? It will probably be finished if you pass the exam. Moreover, there is a trend in contemporary China, which is that there is a group of "elite elements" clamoring to abolish traditional Chinese medicine, and the academic community itself also has discussions on "aborting medicine and reserving medicines."

Professor Qu was very disgusted with this. He once said publicly: "I admit that Chinese medicine is useful, but I want to abolish Chinese medicine. What is the intention? Without medical principles and medical principles, do you know how those prescriptions were prescribed? After eating a full rice, it said that rice is useless, and a group of unfilial prodigal sons!" The old man said this very seriously, and he scolded "unfilial".

No matter how dissatisfied Mr. Qu, it is a fact that the decline of traditional Chinese medicine is true. Many people are unwilling to study traditional Chinese medicine. They often cannot be admitted to other schools in the same level. Only then can they learn traditional Chinese medicine and get a diploma. There are not many people who really apply for the exam because of their ambitions. Now the employment competition is fierce, it is difficult for college students to find a job after graduation, and it is even more difficult for students from the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine to find a job. They often do not engage in medical care. Those who are good at doing well are like Zhang Xiaoning, let alone those who are not good at doing well. In this case, who is willing to study those obscure and difficult ancient classics that may be useless in the future?

This is the case for students, and Professor Qu could only turn a blind eye and sigh in secret, but deep down he had very high requirements for medical inheritance. It is said that Qu Zhengbo's ancestor was a medicine boy next to Sun Simiao, the king of medicine during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. There were many medical classics passed down from generation to generation in his family. Mr. Qu has always been proud of it. It's a pity that his son was unwilling to learn Chinese medicine, and the old man had no choice but to meet a granddaughter who was interested in traditional medicine. The old man naturally loved it very much. However, although this granddaughter was curious about the mystery of traditional Chinese medicine, he was not very solid in studying medicine, which also gave Professor Qu a headache.

Traditional Chinese medicine in the past attached great importance to inheritance. I remember that Sun Simiao had asked Zhang Zhongjing for the original "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" by Zhang Zhongjing, but he was ecstatic after getting it. At that time, he was already a famous doctor of a generation of respectable virtues. For example, the "Huangdi Neijing" was not explained in vernacular language like in class now, and the students understood the meaning one by one, but explained the essence of the word one by one. The simplest requirement for disciples must be memorized, and no word can be missed!

This kind of academic spirit is incredible to modern college students, but in the old tradition of Qu Zhengbo, it is already the simplest requirement. Unfortunately, no one among so many students can do it. When the old man taught the class in the first semester, he abnormally wrote a question with the highest score in the exam, which was to dictate the original text of the "Four Seasons Adjustment Theory", and ended up sweeping down a large number of students, except Mei Xi. Mei Xi's test paper was not wrong, which attracted Professor Qu's attention. He remembered that the student's name also had a good impression of him.

Later, Qu Yimin introduced Mei Xi to Professor Qu's laboratory to do odd jobs. Professor Qu nodded as soon as he heard his name. During the process of getting along with this young man, he found that he was not only smart and clever, but also very hard to learn everything. He really regarded studying medicine as an opportunity to ask questions, which made the old man very comfortable, and Mei Xi also considered his preferences.

"Oh--!" When changing the drawer containing red stone fat with the label of cold bird guano crystal, Mei Xi sighed and asked Professor Qu: "Why are there so many people who study medicine who don't understand that medical treatment is not only about medicine and curing diseases, but more importantly, a kind of attitude towards life?"

This sentence is very close to Professor Qu's appetite. The old man sat in front of a wide table, holding a teacup and said leisurely: "This is the difference between medical and medical skills. If you have a disease, you need to treat it to live a normal life. Then a person's attitude towards life itself is also in medical theory. Just figure out this principle. What kind of disease is prevalent, what medicine to take when you have a disease, and what medicine to take if you are not sick can all reflect the social style of an era."

Mei Xi frowned and said seriously: "It is not a good thing to take medicine without illness. I think that Wushi San is definitely not something I can take if I am sick, right? I read "New Words of the World" in the library. I always feel that the scholar in that troubled times has a little discomfort. His behavior looks wild and indulgent, but his mood is very deep. Professor Qu said Wushi San is an aphrodisiac. I think the aphrodisiac you said must be different from what people usually understand. Then the medicinal properties are probably to relieve liver and relieve depression."

Professor Qu laughed when he heard this: "You have never even seen Wushi San. It is very interesting to speculate on the properties of the medicine in this way. It also makes sense. The messy aphrodisiac drugs that are popular in society nowadays are called kidney nourishment, but you first think of the liver from the word aphrodisiac. There is a bit of an expert opinion, so let's talk about it carefully."

Seeing Professor Qu follow up, Mei Xi began to take advantage of the topic: "The strong aphrodisiac is to strengthen the tendons, and the strengthening tendons is to relieve the liver and help the qi of the growth; when a person's kidney essence is insufficient, the qi of the growth is weak, and only then should we distinguish yin deficiency and yang deficiency to nourish the kidney and strengthen the qi of the kidney. These are two principles, and we need to prescribe the right medicine... But in class I heard you talk about the effect of Wushi San. After taking it, the whole body will get fever but no sweating occurs. Taking it for a long time, the skin is delicate, which means that the medicinal power has already entered the heart and the lungs, from the inside to the surface, but it can be used as an aphrodisiac, which is a bit special."

Professor Qu asked without comment and asked: "It is unlikely that a doctor like me will prescribe a dose of aphrodisiac alone. Why do you think it is?"

Meixi: "The main purpose of traditional Chinese medicine treatment is to reconcile and restore people to a natural state of balanced body functions, rather than stimulating the strong and powerful functions of a certain organ in isolation."

Professor Qu nodded and sighed, "You are right, but now some people misunderstand it too much. For example, Liuwei Dihuang Pills that nourish kidney qi and yin deficiency are actually considered to be aphrodisiac."

Mei Xi: "It's not only a simple misunderstanding. Some people who eat this bowl of rice deliberately mislead it, but some people who eat another bowl of rice deliberately distort it. This is not only a medical issue, but probably a method of martial arts."

Professor Qu didn't say anything and snorted with anger. Hearing this cold snorkeling, Mei Xi already understood why Professor Qu looked at people like Zhang Xiaoning. He smiled and asked in a low voice: "Old Qu, you just said that you were unlikely to prescribe a dose of aphrodisiac alone. Are you unwilling to prescribe or can't?"

Professor Qu's eyebrows stood up: "How could I not prescribe it? In ancient times, the emperors asked the imperial doctors to prescribe the most. No matter how physically they are, they could always find ways to prescribe aphrodisiacs. It was not simply stimulating the blood vessels and bodies, but aphrodisiacs that truly reversed the soul. However, only real masters have this ability, but how could the world's wise doctors do this? It is contrary to the medical principles."

Mei Xi: "Oh? Isn't that aphrodisiacs can be used to strengthen sexual intercourse?"

Professor Qu: "Hmph, it should be said that it is to distinguish the symptoms and poison!... Let's not talk about these things, weren't you talking about Wushi San just now? You will continue to analyze Wushi San."

This is Mei Xi's mind. He did not take the initiative to ask questions, but instead spoke nonsense based on the little fur he learned and what Professor Qu liked to listen to. If what he said was wrong, Professor Qu could not fail to correct it. Once he corrected it, he could not fail to explain it. In this way, the medicinal properties of Wushi Powder were clear without asking questions. Mr. Qu asked him to continue and said, "According to my speculation, the medicinal properties of Wushi Powder accelerated dissipation and had a stimulating and exciting effect. It was a bit like the stimulant taken by athletes. If you take it for a long time, you are susceptible to evil. It is not a good thing... Professor Qu, why did you shake your head?"

Professor Qu shook his head and said, "You are taking it for granted. I'll ask you a question, you can answer it casually. Why is Wushi San called Wushi San?"

Mei Xi felt that there was a way to hear it, and her eyes turned and started to make a fool of herself: "Traditional Chinese medicine distinguishes and regulates the symptoms, and there are five elements, five qi, five colors, and five flavors. Since Wushi San is called Wushi San, I think it is that the five internal organs and five qi can be mobilized, and all five qi are moved - so it has the effect of aphrodisiacs. I wonder if what I said is right?"

Old Man Qu's eyes lit up and stood up: "Boy, you actually got two or three points right!"

Mei Xi was also surprised and touched her forehead and said, "I'm really confused. Since I guessed it right, why did you say I take it for granted? All five qi are moving, of course it is to accelerate dissipation. Is there anything wrong?"

Professor Qu shook his head and looked a little proud: "Yes, that's right, but you forgot that since Wushi San is known as a godly prescription and is not an ordinary doctor's prescription, it cannot be understood so simply."

Mei Xi smiled in her heart when she saw him. People often have this expression when they have talent and learning to show off. He quickly asked: "The Gods and Fairies? Is there really a saying in this world?"

Professor Qu: "What do you say is different? If there are gods, there will be gods. Wushi Powder is not used by ordinary people. It was originally a bait medicine taken by practitioners, and it has the effect of regulating the five qi and converging the Yuan Dynasty. It is only when you are about to reach the realm of the Five Qis to the Yuan Dynasty. Later, the prescription flows into the people and has lost its original intention. It has become a fashion for celebrities in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. It is even more powerful than taking ecstasy in nightclubs today. You can't make a mistake when you just said."

Mei Xi's eyes widened: "There is such a priority? What's going on in the realm of the Five Qi Chaoyuan? Is it that you are the legendary practitioner?"

Professor Qu smiled again: "I didn't want to talk to people about this, but today I've got the words out of your mind. Let me tell you. I heard that you have practiced martial arts in the countryside since I was a child. Come over and work with me." As he said that, he walked to the center of the laboratory.

Mei Xi walked over with a shy face and said with a smile: "What I practice is all about crops. How can I compete with an internal expert like you?"

Professor Qu: "How do you know that I am an expert in the internal family?"

Mei Xi: "I heard that you once showed your unique skill of twisting needles into glass. Of course, it is my internal skills, so I dare not show any ugliness."

Professor Qu glared at me: "You have aroused my addiction, so don't you stretch out your hand with me? Do you look down on me as old man as he is old? Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

"Okay, since you always say that, I will offend you." As he said that, Mei Xi took a step forward and took a stance, Qu Yi knee to protect his vagina, and pushed his wrist sideways flat and a single palm toward Qu Zhengbo's chest. As soon as he moved, he felt that the old man Qu in front of him seemed to have shrunk in circles, like a monkey, and then spread his wings outward, like a white crane spreading his wings, moving as fast as an illusion, and then Qu waved his hand on his forearm.

Just in this moment, Mei Xi heard a "wave" sound in her ear, which seemed to be generated by air compression, and a soft force came to drive her whole body, and her feet couldn't help but fly backwards. She only stabilized her body and landed on the stake two meters away. In order to give the old man face, she stepped back a few steps and stuck to the wall before she stabilized her body. She clasped her fists and said, "Senior, I'm really taught. I'm ashamed. Although I'm young and strong, I can't even catch you. Which genre of kung fu is this?"

The old man said happily: "You guy is not bad. You are not an ordinary farmhand style. You have also practiced internal energy skills. Otherwise, I will just hit you on the wall... My kung fu has no doors or sects. If I have to pursue it, it will be considered Xingyiquan."

Mei Xi: "Xingyiquan? Dai Longbang, Ma Xueli, Li Cunyi's name, I have heard of it. Which one of your kung fu was passed down?"

Professor Qu: "The Xingyiquan I practice is not the Xingyiquan you mentioned. I have never learned the big and small frames in martial arts. It is just the internal cultivation skills of the doctor. It was first created by the genius doctor Hua Tuo. It was passed down to our ancestors of the Qu family by the medicine prince Sun Simiao... Today I work with you to explain to you the realm of the Five Qis to the Yuan Dynasty. I ask you, what the "Huangdi Neijing" says, "The ancients all lived a hundred years in the spring and autumn, but their movements remained unswerving." Do you believe it?"

Mei Xi: "I heard that during the Republic of China, some scholars criticized traditional Chinese medicine with this sentence, but I believe this state of life exists. Many people don't believe it because they can't do it in life. My great-grandfather Mei Taigong is 93 years old this year and has a very good bones, so I have no doubts about the state described in this sentence."

Professor Qu nodded repeatedly: "You boy speaks deeply and fits my heart! Did you learn your skills from the great master? Since you believe it, I can explain to you what the realm of the Five Qi Chaoyuan is. Some of the following words are true, I can confirm and infer, and some are just legends..."

The "Inner Canon of the Inner Canon" says that "the sage does not cure the disease before it is cured", and regards the human body as a system that senses the movement of the heavenly way, and advocates the patrol and control of the five internal organs and five qi meridians of the human body to the best state, so this best state is called "Five Qi Chao Yuan". Although it is called the ancient people, it actually means something.

To reach the state of the five energys toward the Yuan, it means that the peak of an ordinary person's physical state, the functions of the five internal organs, and the feelings of the five senses are in the best state. The person can also enjoy the peace of mind and live a comfortable life without dragging down other people. Of course, such people cannot live forever, but they can "beauty and spirit, and end their entire life." Tiannian means that a person can maintain the natural life of all organs in a healthy state.

The realm of the five energys facing the essence is the ultimate in the body of an ordinary person. All his potential is stimulated and his talent is not wasted at all. This is the foundation of those who practice since ancient times. From this realm, it is not the practice of ordinary people.

The state where the five qi goes upwards is called "Yi Jin and Marrow Cleansing". The five qi goes upwards only to recuperate the natural physical state to the extreme, while Yi Jin and Marrow Cleansing refers to the way of practicing to change one's body and have abilities that ordinary people do not have. The lifespan is also greatly extended, reaching the highest state of Yi Jin and Marrow Cleansing. In theory, there is a three-yuan life, and one Yuan is one Jiazi. Practitioners of each sect have secret techniques, and the effects and methods are also different.

The state of purifying and marrow washing is called "rebirth". When the body changes to the extreme, the whole person will regain a new vitality inside and outside. He is no longer an ordinary mortal, and it is said that he can be regarded as the legendary flying immortal.

The state of transcending and going upward is called "outrageous and transcendent". At this state, the immortals called in the world are like this, and the immortals in ancient legends are like this. As for the state of transcendent and going upward, Professor Qu Zhengbo has never heard of it.

Mei Xi originally wanted to ask about the medicinal properties of Wushi Powder, but unexpectedly asked about such a large string of mysterious things. He blinked for a long time before asking: "Professor Qu, what you said is too mysterious. Are these true?"

Professor Qu narrowed his eyes and replied, "I can't tell whether it is true or not. This is the legend of my ancestors of the Qu family. I can also confirm the realm of the Five Qis to the Yuan Dynasty, but I have only reached this realm. After all, I am a mortal."

Mei Xi: "You mentioned just now that there are gods and immortals. Do you think there are really gods in the world?"
