Chapter 278: Recipe
Forty years ago, I was only twenty years old and had just joined the Imperial Hospital. At that time, King Mu, who was guarding southern Sichuan, was injured. The Imperial Hospital sent eight imperial doctors to go there. Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered southern Sichuan, I encountered a miasma forest. Six imperial doctors died immediately. The only two of us left, with a few followers, escaped.
However, the escaped old imperial doctor injured his leg. Southern Sichuan was damp and stuffy. He had a high fever for two days. When he arrived at the camp in southern Sichuan, only two followers were left. King Mu's men were immediately annoyed and felt that His Majesty was perfunctory, so he sent a young boy to treat him.
I gritted my teeth and treated Wang Mu. The trauma in his right abdomen had healed, but his stomach was very big, but the person was still unconscious. He vomited out when he was fed in a short time. I couldn't find a way. After five days of treatment, there was no improvement. Wang Wangjun's people threatened me and said that if King Mu could not save him, he asked me to bury him with him."
Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes. Isn’t King Mu the one who changed south of Sichuan in the early years of Xuanhua? I think this was all the time when I attacked southern Sichuan before.
Sun's father paused and continued:
"I know that although King Mu was cured, his condition was getting worse and worse. At that time, I felt that I was not long before. I wanted to go up the mountain to collect herbs. Wang Wang's army sent someone to follow me and met this doctor Zhou on the mountain. He looked about thirty years old and was as handsome as you.
I saw him carrying the medicine basket on his back and felt a little close to him, so I collected the medicine together. I felt depressed and told King Mu about his condition, but he did not reveal his identity as a noble man. The doctor Zhou thought about it, took a look at my prescription, then changed it, and asked me to acupuncture several acupoints and cut the wound to discharge pus.
When I came back and tried, it really worked. King Mu woke up immediately and waited for me to find him on the mountain. He wanted to thank him again, but he smiled and waved his hand away. However, I found this jade pendant on the branch where he stood, and it was thought that he had left behind."
After hearing this, Zhou Heng paused slightly. His right abdomen was traumatized and his abdomen swelled, which obviously caused the liver and gallbladder. If the treatment was not done in time, it would be just a hemorrhagic shock at the beginning. If it was not properly treated, it would easily cause liver coma.
"Did Mr. Sun use a big tonic potion back then?"
Sun's father was stunned, then nodded vigorously, with a look of hope on his face.
"Doctor Zhou asked me the same thing, and he said, are you just giving patients a big replenishment? I said yes, although the injury of the sword has been healed, it is the root cause of the injury. At this time, shouldn't you replenish the yang.
He smiled and shook his head, saying that blindly nourishing the patient will make the patient's abdomen more enlarged, but he will not be able to wake up. The more he is in a coma, the more life is, the more life is dangerous."
As he said that, Sun's father picked up his pen and wrote a prescription.
"This is my previous recipe."
Zhou Heng glanced at it and found that it was indeed a recipe for the big tonic, including ginseng, cinnamon, licorice, astragalus, angelica, and white peony. This is the reduced version of the Ten Quan Da Tonic Soup.
It’s okay for patients who are awake, but it’s not suitable for patients with severe ascites and liver coma.
Zhou Heng looked at the prescription, kept shaking his head and then said:
"If it were me, I would use rhubarb, bean root, knotweed, antelope horn, Chuanxiong, Rehmannia, and a gourd that does not remove seeds, boil it in water and take it."
The teacup in Sun's father's hand fell down with a click.
The tea spread all over the table, without caring about whether he was disrespectful. He grabbed Zhou Heng's hand, and the shock on his face was beyond words.
Zhou Heng was even more shocked. Just now, he was just thinking about the disease, but he actually said the prescription that his grandfather had used well.
Needless to say, he knew, it must be the same as the doctor Zhou that Mr. Sun mentioned.
However, Zhou Heng was a little curious at this moment, who was this person? Is it really the original owner's grandfather? How could he have a grandfather's prescription? Is there any origin in it?
Sun's father took Zhou Heng's hand and said excitedly:
"It's this prescription. Not to mention forty years, even on the day when I die, I can't forget the scene at that time. Doctor Zhou said it just like you said it, and took a pen like a charcoal strip from his body, and wrote it on the bamboo slip for me to be missed. It seems that it is your grandfather."
Sun's father had a loud voice, and finally he cried with Zhou Heng's hand.
"Forty years, I am so excited whenever I think of this prescription. I have read through the classics of the Imperial Hospital, but I have not found the source. I have used such a violent medicine and was severely scolded by the hospital envoy at that time. However, I knew the prescription was useful. If it weren't for this prescription, I would have died in southern Sichuan like those people."
Zhou Heng quickly helped Mr. Sun to sit down. As soon as the door sounded, Qu Ziping walked in quickly. Boss Xue and a group of imperial doctors stood behind him. Obviously, he was surprised to hear the sound and came over to take a look.
Seeing that the table was in chaos, Qu Ziping quickly came over to clean up with a rag.
When Sun Maocai saw his father pulling Zhou Heng, he quickly pushed away the person in front of him and walked in.
Qu Ziping said a few simple words, and Sun Maocai immediately became respectful, quickly tidied up his clothes, knelt on the ground, and solemnly kowtowed to Zhou Heng.
"When my father taught medical skills since he was a child, he once told me about the past. Unexpectedly, the grandfather of Zhou Yuan was actually his father's benefactor. Please accept Maocai's three worships."
The imperial physicians outside have more or less heard of some things about the Sun family.
If it weren't for a trip to southern Sichuan, Sun's father would not have been in the position of a medical officer. He also knew that there was a tablet of immortality without any words in their family.
Zhou Heng quickly stood up and helped Sun Maocai up. It was really uncomfortable for a man older than him to kneel down.
"Everyone is up. I don't know if this is done by my grandfather. A single prescription can't explain anything."
Sun's father shook his head, "It must be that no one I know has seen this prescription. Today I talked about the disease. Zhou Yuan judged me to subconsciously say this prescription when I took the medicine. This is not accidental."
Zhou Heng knew that the old man had found a psychological support, and it was useless to say anything now, so he quickly helped him up. It would be bad to be too excited at such an age.
"Old Mr. Sun, sit down, by the way, Doctor Sun, why are you here? The exam is over?"
Sun Maocai nodded, and saw that his father was no longer excited just now, so he clasped his fists and said:
"Yes, we have finished the exam, and Dr. Liu is marking the papers for us."
As he was talking, Liu Xiu'er poked her head from the door and saw so many people gathered here, with a look of confusion.
"Why are you all standing here?"
Zhou Heng quickly reached out and said, "Xiu'er, take the paper over and show it to me."
Liu Xiu'er quickly walked closer and handed over a stack of papers. Zhou Heng opened them. The six people were all a little nervous and stood in the office lined up. Sun's father knew a little bit, and this exam was related to whether they could continue to study.
Zhou Heng saw the last one and closed the paper. His father Sun reached out.
"Can the judge Zhou Yuan show me too?"
Zhou Heng handed the paper to Sun's father and looked at the six people.
"In terms of grades, it's pretty good, and you get more than 80. However, the diagnosis and treatment of patients is not an exam, and mistakes cannot be made up for it. Therefore, you must be foolproof and do not make it difficult for patients to treat them because of your own reasons."
The six people were like quails and quickly bowed and said that they were, Zhou Heng waved his hand to Liu Xiu'er.
"The two who failed the exam will be sent directly to wash all the towels and isolation clothes today, and listen to the class normally at night. If you fail the exam next time, you will be sent to the pharmaceutical workshop and you will not have to go back to the Chuntang."
As soon as these words were spoken, the six people were sweating on their faces. It can be seen that Zhou Heng was a person who was right and had already treated them very politely before. These people followed Liu Xiu'er and left quickly.
Sun's father looked at it with relish and put down the paper. He seemed to be thinking about the contents in it. His eyes at Zhou Heng became more and more different.
"If I'm good at it, your medical skills are not inferior to your grandfather, but I just don't know if your other family members are still there."
Zhou Heng looked out the window and sighed, thinking of his grandfather and mother instantly, his nose felt a little sore, and he smiled at his father Sun.
"I can remember only the limited amount of things. I hope they can be safe in another world."
Zhou Heng thought of Nanchuan and frowned slightly. When he looked at Sun's father again, he had a trace of confusion on his face.
