Chapter 395 Hua Tuo's Relics
An hour later, the air inside the tunnel had undergone a major blood change, and everyone entered again, but they still didn't dare to be careless. Everyone was wearing a gas mask.
Back to the original place, there was a box in the corner of the passage. When Hong Tianbao opened it, he looked a little strange. There was actually a book called "Qing Nang Jing", a set of needles, a set of scalpels, and a compendium of the Five Animal Show.
Professor Fang was shocked when he saw this and quickly asked Hong Tianbao to carry the treasure out, and everyone rushed out of the tunnel again.
"It's Hua Tuo's treasure. Wait, I'll inform Lao Gao immediately and ask him to come and have a look, otherwise that guy will settle the score with me again." Professor Fang said.
He immediately notified Gao Lin, the imperial physician in the capital, to inform him of the matter.
Everyone knows that in the Chinese medicine industry, Gao Lin, the imperial physician in the capital, is Mount Tai, and he must be notified of this matter. In fact, there are two representatives in traditional Chinese medicine, Gao Lin is one, and the other is the ghost doctor Yi Siren. Yi Siren's medical skills are still above Gao Lin, but Yi Siren hid the people in the coastal area, so the only one who is famous is Gao Lin, representing the highest level in the traditional Chinese medicine industry.
Gao Lin received a call from Professor Fang. At first, he thought Professor Fang was joking and swiped him: "Lao Fang, you have to change your method to new ones, right? Do you think I am the kind of person who will be fooled every time?"
Professor Fang was so angry that he smoked and cursed: "Old Gao, you really won't come? Don't blame me for not notifying you afterwards."
Professor Fang sent a few pictures over. When Gao Lin saw it, he immediately jumped up. He immediately gathered all the famous old Chinese doctors in the capital and rushed towards Luoyang.
A group of old men and women were nervous and excited. It was hard to imagine that they were all old men in their sixties and seventies.
"Lao Fang, where is the Qingnang Jing!" Gao Lin took the lead and shouted at Professor Fang from a distance.
"Inside the box." Professor Fang pointed to a box placed on the table.
A group of old men immediately squeezed out the archaeologists such as Hong Tianbao and others, and surrounded the box one by one, buzzing and talking nonsense.
Under everyone's anticipation, Gao Lin opened the box and several items inside appeared in front of everyone.
"It's really the "Qingnang Jing". What's going on? Didn't this book be burned in prison?" an old man said in shock.
Gao Lin turned a few pages, his eyes burst into a burst of splendor, and he announced excitedly: "That's right! These are Hua Tuo's relics. There are probably two copies of "Qingnang Jing", one that was burned is a copy of your own. Think about it! Who wouldn't keep a hand? What if it is lost?"
Gao Lin explained that he picked up the needle and scalpel respectively, and finally picked up the set of Wuniang opera scores, which made him happy.
Hua Tuo attaches great importance to the prevention of diseases and emphasizes physical exercise to enhance physical fitness. He imitates the movements and postures of tigers, deer, bears, apes, and birds, creating a "Five Animal Play" for exercise. The Five Animal Play is a fitness exercise that combines physical activities and qigong. Many people can do it, but they cannot understand the essence because they have never practiced their internal skills.
Like Yi Siren, Gao Lin is both a person who practices internal skills, so the effect of this complete set of Five Animal Plays on them is self-evident.
When the others heard this, they felt reasonable and agreed with this conjecture. Hong Tianbao was actually the same as this conjecture. It was probably after Cao Cao killed Hua Tuo. His condition was getting worse and worse, and his wife and son died one after another, which made him frightened. He regretted killing Hua Tuo, a miracle doctor, but he was already dead and regretted it. Therefore, he found the relics left by Hua Tuo, hoping that his imperial doctor could learn Hua Tuo's skills and treat him, but in the end he failed to do so, so he simply collected the relics here.
Of course, this is just Hong Tianbao's personal imagination, and only Cao Cao knows the real situation.
Hua Tuo has comprehensive medical skills. He is especially good at surgery and is proficient in surgery. He was later called the master of surgery and the founder of surgery. Hua Tuo practiced medicine all over the world throughout his life, and has a great reputation and has achieved many achievements in medicine.
Unfortunately, such a famous doctor was killed by Cao Cao, who was suspicious. Cao Cao's approach actually not only killed a generation of famous doctors, but also harmed himself, and many medical skills have been lost to this day.
Hua Tuo was killed by Cao Cao, and there is a supernatural story here. It tells the story of Cao Cao building a large-scale construction in Luoyang and building a palace. He personally participated in the logging activities, but unexpectedly, he injured an old pear tree that had become a sperm with a sword, and blood flowed out of the trunk of the pear tree. That night, Cao Cao started having nightmares and was killed by the pear tree spirit. After waking up, he suffered from malignant brain tumors.
Cao Cao, who was stubborn and suspicious, not only refused to accept surgical treatment from the famous medical scientist Mr. Huatuo, but also suspected that he had plotted to murder him and brutally killed Dr. Huatuo. After that, Cao Cao had nightmares for several days, and his condition worsened sharply and eventually lost his life.
"Ma Fei San! The prescription for Ma Fei San is recorded here!" an old Chinese doctor shouted in ecstasy.
Others were shocked and looked over. Mafei San was invented by Hua Tuo and was more effective than the current anesthetics. After all, it is said that Mafei San has no side effects, while modern anesthetics are caused by side effects.
"It's indeed Ma Fei San! With the "Qingnan Jing", our traditional Chinese medicine is saved." An old man actually burst into tears.
The origin of Mafei San is also very tortuous and complicated, and there are some moving stories here.
Legend has it that during the Three Kingdoms period, Guan Yu, the general of Shu, fought with the enemy soldiers, and was hit with a poisonous arrow in his arms. His elbows and arms were red and swollen, and the pain was unbearable. He could not eat or sleep, and the wound gradually turned black and rotten.
Hua Tuo was invited to treat it. When Hua Tuo saw that the toxic attack had invaded the bones, he had to take surgery to remove the toxins from the bones. He also suggested that a wooden frame was nailed to bind the injured arm and then perform surgery. Guan Yu was willing to cooperate with Hua Tuo and said that the operation would be performed directly without the wooden frame being fixed. Hua Tuo immediately held a sharp blade in his hand and cut off the rotten flesh of the injured part, and then scraped the bones with a sharp blade.
The rustling of the bones was rustling, and the soldiers inside and outside the tent were all terrified when they heard this scene, but Guan Yu was playing chess and drinking, chatting and laughing calmly. Hua Tuo was moved by Guan Yu's spirit and successfully scraped the toxins on the periosteum and applied spiritual medicine. After the suture was stitched, it quickly healed, returned to its original state, and went to battle to kill the enemy.
However, not everyone can endure the severe pain of surgery like Guan Yu. Hua Tuo always feels very uneasy when thinking about the patients whose crux of the disease is in the body and cannot be achieved by acupuncture and medicine and must be treated with surgery.
One day, two people came to Hua Tuo with a drunk man, saying that he was shaking when he was drunk. He was drunk and walked with a heavy head and light feet. He accidentally fell to the ground. There happened to be a sharp and thin iron thorn on the ground, which pierced into the skin. Because it was pierced deeply, it could not be pulled out. Hua Tuo had to take out the iron thorn. Until the operation was completed, there was no pain in the drunk man. Hua Tuo felt strange. After the drunk man sobered up, Hua Tuo asked, and the drunk man did not feel any pain during the operation.
Hua Tuo thought, could the patient be allowed to undergo surgery after being drunk? If so, wouldn’t it be possible to relieve the patient of the pain during the surgery? So Hua Tuo asked his apprentice Wu Pu to buy two kilograms of wine on the market, and then instructed Wu Pu that when he got drunk, he would use a knife to cut an inch-long hole in his leg, and then sew it with needle and thread. Wu Pu knew that the master was doing the test with himself, so he started doing it seriously as he told him.
When his apprentice did this, Hua Tuo did not feel any pain. Hua Tuo was very happy and called this method "intoxication method". From then on, Hua Tuo began to use this method to treat patients.
However, after a period of application, it was found that this method was only applicable to some patients. It cannot be applied to children and serious patients. Because children cannot drink alcohol, serious patients have a long time of surgery, and the surgery is often not completed, and the patient has woken up from drunkenness and the pain is even worse. Hua Tuo began to think hard again for this.
One day, Hua Tuo met a friend from Mount Tai. The two of them drank and reminisce about the past. The friend told me about an interesting story he had experienced, saying that when he went to Mount Tai, he felt uncomfortable because of thirst. He picked and ate a wild fruit on the roadside. After eating it, his tongue became numb, his mouth couldn't open, and he felt numb all over. After a while, he fell asleep in a daze. When he woke up, several hours had passed.
The speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional. Hua Tuo thought: If you use this wild fruit to the patient who has surgery, you will not know the pain if you are numb? He hurriedly asked his friends where this wild fruit grows, what characteristics of the fruit trees have, and what the fruit looks like, and then write them down one by one. He wanted to find this wild fruit in person.
The next morning, Hua Tuo set off for Mount Tai. When his eight-year-old son Fei'er saw his father going to Mount Tai, he pestered him to go with him. Hua Tuo only likes this son, who usually likes him very much, but he can't help but take him on the way.
Hua Tuo and Fei'er came to Mount Tai. On the mountain, Hua Tuo saw a wild fruit. He looked similar to what his friend said, so he reached out and picked one and put it in his mouth. After biting it, the root of his tongue became numb and his mouth was difficult to open. So he picked some and took it back to the hotel. After repeated experiments, he found that this wild fruit was ripe and not numb (eating raw can make people numb, and eating it after cooking it will not feel numb when it is eaten). The numbness time is also very short.
Although this wild fruit is useful, it can only be used for small sores with short surgery time, and cannot all relieve the patient's pain and cannot be used for major surgery. Hua Tuo concluded that this wild fruit was not what his friend said, so he continued to search on the mountain with Fei'er.
On this day, the father and son crossed mountains and ridges, and when they saw wild fruits, they picked one and tasted them. Before they knew that it was almost noon. Hua Tuo saw that there was a big hillside in front of him. Fei'er was tired again, so he took out a cake and handed it to him, asking him to sit down and rest and eat cakes, and don't run around. Hua Tuo walked towards the hillside alone.
Fei'er sat on a big rock under the tree and ate a cake. Suddenly a small animal ran past him and entered the grass not far away. He ran to the grass to catch it, chasing it, and suddenly disappeared. He stood up in disappointment, but saw a lot of small fruits on a tree beside him. After eating the cake, he picked the fruit and started eating it.
When Hua Tuo came back from the hillside, he found that Fei'er was missing. He searched everywhere, but saw Fei'er lying on the ground not far away. He called out, Fei'er was silent. When he touched his heart, his heart stopped beating! It turned out that Fei'er died of poisoning after eating wild fruit. The wild fruit was exactly what Hua Tuo’s friend said. Hua Tuo burst into tears. After crying, he carried Fei'er down the mountain and bought a coffin and buried it at the foot of the mountain.
Later, Hua Tuo used the wild fruits eaten by Feier, and combined with Caotou Wu and Tiannan Xing to form anesthetics. During the operation, the patient was asked to drink the anesthetics and then numb the body before the surgery. The patient did not know the pain at all. Because this anesthetic was exchanged for Feier's life, in order to commemorate his son, Hua Tuo named this anesthetic "Fei'er Decoction" and recorded the prescription in "Qingnan Jing", and then changed the name to "Ma Fei San".
