Chapter 592: The method is no better than Zhang Zhongjing, and the theory is no better than the Neijing.
Soon it was five o'clock in the morning. Li Quan felt dizzy and the extreme sleepiness and fatigue he had experienced yesterday came back again.
No matter how hard he tried, it was of no use.
Soon he fell into a deep sleep.
The same was true for Professor Hawking and others in the ward.
Including Ye Ru also started to fall ill.
Also fell into a coma.
Except for the fully armed medical staff in the ward, several patients infected with unknown fungi were all in a deep sleep.
…
When Li Quan woke up again, there was a pile of medical books beside his bed.
These were exactly the medical books from the four miracle doctors that he needed.
"Director Li, these medical books were bought by a boss named Rao. He said that you entrusted him to buy these medical books." The nurse said softly.
"Okay! Did he tell me how much it cost in total?"
Li Quan asked.
"Uh... that's not the details. They just asked us to hand the book to you." The nurse was probably just acting as a collector.
"Okay, thank you!" Li Quan looked at the time. It was seven minutes past twelve in the evening.
After being infected with this terrible unknown fungus, it seems that a biological alarm clock is installed in the brain.
Wake up on time at 12 o'clock every night, and fall asleep on time after 5 o'clock in the morning.
For the time being, apart from feeling that my body seems a little weaker than usual and my head is a little dizzy, I don't have any other discomfort.
The terrible phenomenon of skin cracking has not appeared yet.
Li Quan took out his mobile phone and found several missed calls and unread messages.
Since becoming the director of Huier Hospital, he has received many more phone calls than before.
Some of the calls were social calls, and some were from hospital staff reporting to him on their work.
Boss Rao called him more than ten times, but unfortunately no one answered.
Sophie also called him several times, but no one answered.
As for the other missed calls, they were basically from the hospital's subordinates. Li Quan didn't have the energy or time to call them back one by one.
Boss Rao is a businessman. Although he had already received the 10,000 yuan in hard work fee that Li Quan transferred to him in advance, it would still cost a lot of money to help Li Quan buy so many medical books.
I called Li Quan because I originally wanted to have a few words with him in person and discuss the price.
After making several calls and no one answered, Boss Rao sent another text message to Li Quan.
Since the advent of WeChat, Li Quan rarely checks text messages on his mobile phone.
Because basically it is some bank card deduction information, or miscellaneous advertisements and fraud information.
"Mr. Li, I have bought the medical books you requested. I have asked the doctors at the First Hospital of Beijing to pass them on to you. I bought 32 books in total, some of which are printed editions on the market, and some are rare copies that are hard to find.
The total cost was 8,200 yuan.
There is also an original medical book written by Wu Tang in the Qing Dynasty, but the price is a bit high, so I didn’t dare to make a decision on my own. The seller offered 23,000 yuan. If you are willing, I can buy it for you, or take you to see the goods together.”
Boss Rao is a businessman with high professional ethics.
After receiving the 10,000 yuan reward from Li Quan, he did his best to help Li Quan purchase the books he needed.
"Thank you for your hard work, boss. I will transfer the money to you. Please buy it for me and send it to the hospital."
Li Quan had already added the other party as a WeChat friend and immediately transferred 32,000 yuan to him.
The extra eight hundred yuan is equivalent to the errand fee for the other party.
Wu Tang’s original medical book only costs 23,000 yuan, which is totally worth it.
Especially for Li Quan, obtaining the original medical book of any ancient miracle doctor means gaining at least 100 points of favorability from the other party.
One hundred points of favorability is a lot.
If nothing goes wrong, you can exchange it for a bunch of ordinary miracle doctor skills, or a super miracle doctor skill.
Li Quan discovered that the medical skills that required one hundred points of favorability to be exchanged were all advanced medical skills among the divine doctor skills.
It’s more powerful than ordinary miracle doctors’ skills.
After replying to Boss Rao, Li Quan replied to Sophie.
"Honey, are you used to it over there?"
"I heard that you stayed in Beijing to do research. How long will it take for you to return to the Magic City?"
"Be sure to be safe out there. I miss you so much."
The little girl Sophie's heart has long been captured by Li Quan.
It is said that for lovers in love, one day apart feels like a long time.
I thought that Li Quan would be back in three or four days at most after attending the medical skills competition in Beijing. Unexpectedly, all the other contestants from Huier Hospital returned, except Li Quan.
In addition to missing Li Quan, Sophie was also full of worries.
"I'm doing fine here. I'm currently doing an important medical research and it's my honor to serve my country. Since you can't bring your phone when doing experiments, it's normal that no one answered your calls or replied to your messages during this period.
When I return triumphantly, that will be the time for me to marry you."
How could Li Quan not miss her?
This time, unfortunately, he was infected with an unknown fungus, and Sophie was one of the three people who were most worried.
Just after I replied to Sophie's message, Boss Rao called me.
"Mr. Li, have you got the medical books I bought for you?" asked Boss Rao.
"I just got them all. I'm very satisfied. Thank you, Boss Rao. Also, please buy the original book by Wu Tang that you mentioned and send it to the hospital as soon as possible." Li Quan said with a smile. "By the way, I just transferred the money for the book to you. Did you receive it?"
"Got it, got it! Mr. Li is a straightforward person, and it's a pleasure to work with you. I used my network to find out about the original Wu Tang book, which is in a remote province. It will probably take about three days to deliver it to you."
Boss Rao took the money and treated Li Quan with both respect and enthusiasm.
After ending the call, Li Quan began to look through the pile of books.
There is only one medical book by Zhang Zhongjing.
"Treatise on Febrile Diseases".
This is a bit too little.
Because Zhang Zhongjing was revered as the Saint of Medicine by people in later generations.
Anyone who studies Chinese medicine must have heard a saying: the best method is that of Zhang Zhongjing, and the best theory is that of the Neijing.
What does this mean?
The word "Fa" actually means the prescription for treating a disease. Some people also think that this "Fa" refers to the pulse diagnosis method.
Principle refers to pharmacology.
The prescriptions of later generations of Chinese medicine practitioners were basically based on Zhang Zhongjing's Classic of Materia Medica and the Neijing as the foundation for the theory of medicine.
From this we can see that Zhang Zhongjing's medical skills reached the level of the originator.
For example, Hua Tuo is the founder of surgery, Huangdi is the founder of the Neijing, and Zhang Zhongjing is the founder of the Treatise on Febrile Diseases.
How could such a great Chinese medicine master, who was later revered as the Saint of Medicine, have only one medical book?
In fact, Zhang Zhongjing wrote many medical books, but unfortunately all of them have been lost.
Even the most famous Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases has been lost.
The copy of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" that Li Quan is holding now was pieced together by people in later generations.
It can no longer be considered a complete version of "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases".
"Never mind, let's read it first."
Li Quan did not look at other medical books, but began to read "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" seriously.
"In case of Taiyang disease, there are stiffness and pain in the head and neck, pain in the waist and back joints, aversion to cold and fever. This is a Taiyang meridian syndrome. If there is a little sweat from time to time, it is because the wind hurts the Wei, and the treatment is mainly Guizhi Decoction to drive away the wind in the Wei. If there is a high fever without sweating, it is because the cold hurts the Ying, and the treatment is mainly Mahuang Decoction to drive out the cold in the Ying..."
Isn’t this the Six-Channel Method for Treating Typhoid Fever established by Shu Shi of the Qing Dynasty?
How did it get to the Treatise on Febrile Diseases?
Li Quan felt very confused.
Zhang Zhongjing lived in the Eastern Han Dynasty, while Shu Zhao, the author of the Six-Channel Treatment of Febrile Diseases, lived in the Qing Dynasty.
In the Treatise on Febrile Diseases written by Zhang Zhongjing, the first paragraph is Shu's six-channel method for treating febrile diseases. There are only two possibilities.
The first one is that Shu Zhao plagiarized Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Febrile Diseases".
The second is that the author of this Treatise on Febrile Diseases was not Zhang Zhongjing at all, but was a piece of work by later generations who pieced together some seemingly plausible things and forcibly combined them to create the so-called Treatise on Febrile Diseases.
Anyway, Li Quan believed that with Zhang Zhongjing's medical achievements and status, he would never plagiarize others.
Besides, even if Zhang Zhongjing wanted to plagiarize Shu Zhao’s medical book, he would not have the chance.
Because he was more than a thousand years earlier than Shu Zhao of the Qing Dynasty.
[You have successfully maintained Zhang Zhongjing's reputation, and gained Zhang Zhongjing's favorability +10. ]
After Li Quan's idea became clear and open-minded, an unexpected surprise came.
Just because of his idea, he gained 10 points of favorability from Zhang Zhongjing.
The medical saint Zhang Zhongjing was quite generous and directly gave him 10 points of favorability.
Li Quan once helped other miracle doctors restore their reputation or resolve grievances, but the favorability he gained was only 5 points.
In comparison, those ancient miracle doctors seemed a little petty.
"It seems that I can learn how to treat the plague today!" Li Quan was very happy.
Sometimes, he always wondered if he had done so many good deeds that God was moved and deliberately helped him in his time of crisis.
Perhaps this time God knew that his life was in danger, so he wanted to help him learn the treatment for the plague as quickly as possible and cure his illness.
"First, let's see what medical skills Zhang Zhongjing has?"
Li Quan couldn't wait to open the list of redemption of miracle doctor skills.
According to his experience, even if he only gained a little favorability, he could check what medical skills the miracle doctor had that could be exchanged.
After clicking on the list, he was shocked.
The Medical Saint is the Medical Saint, and his miraculous medical skills are in no way inferior to those of Bian Que.
Moreover, there are two advanced miracle medical skills that require 100 points of favorability to redeem.
[The art of dialectical diagnosis of typhoid fever can be used to dialectically diagnose the symptoms of almost all typhoid fever diseases, identify the causes, clarify the pathology, and infer the location of the lesions. Redemption requires a favorability of 100.]
[Specializes in difficult pulse diagnosis, can diagnose all difficult pulse diagnosis and pathology. Exchange requires 50 favorability. ]
…
It seems that Zhang Zhongjing's medical skills are not cheap, they are all extremely expensive.
The diagnosis and treatment of typhoid fever is Zhang Zhongjing's most powerful medical skill.
This is also his famous medical skill. It is normal that 100 points of favorability are required to exchange for this medical skill.
If you can learn the art of dialectical medicine for typhoid fever, you will be able to accurately treat all typhoid-related diseases in the future.
Perhaps many people don’t know what typhoid fever is?
Many people also generally regard it as a general term for modern colds.
In fact, typhoid fever is not the same as cold, but cold is a type of typhoid fever.
To put it more clearly, typhoid fever includes modern cold-like diseases, but there are more typhoid-like diseases than cold-like diseases.
Today, with technology highly developed, perhaps many people think that a cold is just a minor illness.
It doesn't even need treatment, it will heal on its own in a few days.
Yes, most colds do not require treatment and can heal on their own.
Even if it is a more serious cold, you can recover quickly by taking some cold medicine, or getting an IV or some antibiotics.
But in the eyes of ordinary people, colds are not scary.
In the eyes of doctors, colds are not as easy to deal with as imagined.
Sometimes, a cold can be fatal.
For example, fulminant myocarditis caused by colds, which makes doctors shudder.
The mortality rate is extremely high.
There are also some colds that are not effectively treated with conventional means, and eventually become serious illnesses, and even cause some complications, such as multiple organ failure.
When these unfortunate situations occur, doctors sometimes find it difficult to save patients' lives even if they try their best.
So, cold is a very terrible disease.
At least in the eyes of professional doctors, colds are terrible and should never be taken lightly.
After learning Zhang Zhongjing's dialectical medical skills for treating colds, Li Quan will definitely become the top expert in the field of colds in the future.
He may even lead the medical team to develop new methods to treat colds and typhoid fever.
Li Quan was drooling over Zhang Zhongjing's amazing medical skills.
But he did not forget his original intention.
The most important thing for him now is to learn how to treat the plague.
After reading all of Zhang Zhongjing's medical skills several times, Li Quan still couldn't find the specific treatment for the plague he needed.
The thing people fear most is that after being given hope, they work very hard, and then what they get is disappointment.
Eventually it turns to despair.
Li Quan is now experiencing a transition from being full of hope to being disappointed.
"Zhang Zhongjing doesn't have a specific cure for plague, so we can give up for the time being." After Li Quan confirmed that Zhang Zhongjing didn't have a specific cure for plague, he decisively cut his losses.
When I have time in the future, I can slowly study Zhang Zhongjing’s medical books.
Of course, the prerequisite is to be able to get through the current stage and survive into the future.
"Since Zhang Zhongjing has also been ruled out, there are only the last three miracle doctors left. The second object of study is Ye Gui's medical book."
Li Quan had already made plans.
Time was running out, so Li Quan did not waste any time and started looking through Ye Gui's medical books on the spot.
He found that among all the books he bought, the most were medical books by Ye Gui and Wu Tang.
"By the way, Ye Ru, didn't your father promise to send your family's ancestral medical book over? Now it's been two days, has it arrived?"
Li Quan asked Ye Ru who was feeling a little depressed.
After she woke up, she didn't say a word. She just stood quietly behind Li Quan, watching Li Quan reading Zhang Zhongjing's medical book.
It seemed that since she was infected with the unknown fungus, Li Quan became her only spiritual sustenance.
"Here we are! Here it is."
Ye Ru opened her small backpack and carefully took out a very old medical book from it.
The cover of this medical book is made of animal skin.
The surface has been polished to a glossy shine, indicating that it has been used by generations of users.
"It should be the original work. I will borrow it for a while."
Li Quan reached out and took it.
