"Healers should do it again! Those who practice medicine must have rich
experience in curing diseases and saving people. Shan Chang uses the Datang
United Medical Center to cooperate with the teaching of the medical school.
Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Dr. Wang stroked his palm and sighed.
"In fact, in addition to "Prescriptions for Thousand Golds", I think Sun
Daochang and the two gentlemen can consider compiling a medical book that
introduces the properties of herbal medicine for students to refer to when
practicing medicine in the future~!"
After handing "A Thousand Golden Prescriptions" to Sun Simiao, another thought
suddenly occurred in Li Zexuan's mind, so he looked at Sun Simiao and said.
"Herbal properties~?"
Sun Simiao frowned and said, "Xiaoxuan, the medicinal properties of most
herbal medicines are recorded in the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". Why do you
want to do this again and write a book~?"
"Shen Nong's Materia Medica", also known as "Materia Medica" or "Ben Jing", is
one of the four classics of traditional Chinese medicine. It is the earliest
Chinese pharmacy book originated from the Shennong family and passed on from
generation to generation. It was assembled and compiled in the Eastern Han
Dynasty. The book was not written for a while, nor was the author alone. It
was collected, summarized, and sorted out by many medical scientists during
the Qin and Han Dynasties!
Li Zexuan shook his head. Of course he knew the existence of "Shen Nong's
Materia Medica", but his intention was not to write another "Shen Nong Materia
Medica", but to write a medical book similar to "Compendium of Materia
Medica". He pondered for a moment. Said:
"Sun Daochang, "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" does record the medicinal
properties of a large number of medicinal materials, but its classification
method is slightly rough, and many of the medicinal materials have been missed
for a long time. It is inevitable that there will be some mistakes! For
medical practitioners, one A small mistake is likely to kill the patient!
Therefore, I would like to ask three people to spare time in the future. On
the one hand, it is to proofread and revise the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica"
and correct the errors in it; on the other hand, to classify the herbal
medicines recorded in the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" according to the
outline. Form a complete and detailed herbal reference book!
Just like the "Datang Dictionary" for literati, the three herbal medicine
books revised in the future will be the herbal pharmacopoeia of future Datang
doctors, and doctors can quickly find out the properties and effects of
certain medicinal materials through this book~!
For example, the three can divide the drugs into different parts according to
the properties of the drugs, and each part is subdivided into several
categories..."
Li Zexuan hadn't read "Compendium of Materia Medica" in his previous life.
Naturally, there would be no complete memory in his mind, but even if he read
it completely, he would not copy a copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica" to
Sun Simiao and the others!
"Compendium of Materia Medica" has a very high status in Li Zexuan's previous
life. Not only does it have corresponding texts in primary school textbooks,
but it is also called the Encyclopedia of Ancient China by Darwin. However,
"Compendium of Materia Medica" has a very low academic contribution to Chinese
medicine. Far from being as high as elementary school textbooks and Darwin.
The historical background at that time was that Sun Simiao’s "A Thousand Gold
Essential Prescriptions" contained a lot of Taoist yin and yang concepts,
while Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" was more inclined to botany.
Darwin certainly did not understand Taoist yin and yang theory, but he felt
that "Compendium of Materia Medica" Some of his views were more able to
support his theory of evolution, so he promoted and admired it in the West!
The atmosphere of the "Wo Chao" era was that foreign monks were good at
chanting scriptures, and foreigners said yes, it was naturally excellent, so
the status of "Compendium of Materia Medica" was infinitely elevated!
It can be said that the fame of "Compendium of Materia Medica" was the result
of a deliberate hype by foreigners in order to support its academic theories.
In order to cater to this hype, the compilation of textbooks at that time
carried out a false packaging, packaging Li Shizhen into A great Chinese
pharmacist!
But in fact, Li Shizhen’s contribution to Materia Medica is far inferior to
his contribution to pulse diagnosis. He started to gain fame by relying on the
two medical techniques of "Linhu Maijue" and "Qijing Bamai Kao" instead of
"Materia Medica". Outline"!
In the previous life, Li Zexuan had a friend from the Medical Department of
Capital University said that only the three Chinese medicines recorded in
"Chinese Materia Medica" are from the "Compendium of Materia Medica", and most
of the rest are from "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and "Materia Medica
Scripture" (Liang Tao Hongjing of the Southern Dynasty) In other words, in
terms of commonly used traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine is
basically taking the roots of Emperor Shennong's Yandi and Tao Hongjing!
Moreover, although the "Compendium of Materia Medica" recorded as many as 1892
kinds of medicines, Li Shizhen was just a poor rural doctor who didn't even
print books at the time. Naturally, it is impossible to have the financial and
ability to verify these 1892 kinds of medicines. As a result, many records of
the properties of drugs are not true. In the final word "Compendium of Materia
Medica", there appeared absurd prescriptions such as "treating typhoid fever
with a footcloth" and "treating madness with a sling"!
However, it does not mean that "Compendium of Materia Medica" is useless. Its
greatest contribution is to set a precedent in the classification of herbal
medicines. It uses artificial classification. Compared with the original
classification method in the previous masterpieces of pharmacology,
"Compendium of Materia Medica" I don’t know how many times advanced and
scientific is the artificial classification.
In "Compendium of Materia Medica", Li Shizhen divided all medicines into 16
parts: water part, fire part, soil part, gold and stone part, grass part,
grain part, vegetable part, fruit part, wood part, server part, insect part,
scale Ministry, Intermediary Ministry, Poultry Ministry, Animal Ministry,
Human Ministry. Each part is divided into several categories, a total of 62
categories. Among them, there are 1195 kinds of plants, 340 kinds of animals,
and 357 kinds of minerals.
Under his classification, if doctors want to inquire about the pharmacological
properties of a certain Chinese medicine, it is simply too convenient, as
convenient as looking up rare words in the "Datang Dictionary"! So what Li
Zexuan wanted to do was to recommend this excellent herbal classification
method in the Compendium of Materia Medica to Sun Simiao and others, and let
them use this classification method to sort out some of the previous
masterpieces of herbal medicine to form a book similar to "Compendium of
Materia Medica". "Compendium" a reference book for doctors!
I believe that the quality of the medical books compiled with the abilities of
these three people will not be lower than Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia
Medica"!
"Shanchang! If you use this classification method to organize the previously
recorded herbal medicines into a book~www.mtlnovel.com~, it will undoubtedly
be more convenient and faster for students to learn pharmacology!"
After listening to Li Zexuan's detailed explanation, Dr. Qin and Dr. Wang
looked at each other and exclaimed.
"Yeah! Xiaoxuan, your herbal classification method is indeed more superior, so
that people can see at a glance! Poor Dao will spare time in the future to
sort out such a medical book for the medical school~!"
Sun Simiao also nodded in admiration, and then he turned around and said with
a smile: "But if you remember correctly, Xiaoxuan, you promised to help him
make a tool that can see subtle things last year! But this is all! It's been
almost a year, Xiaoxuan, have you forgotten about this?"
"Huh~?"
Li Zexuan was stunned. He didn't expect Lao Sun to collect debts from him,
cough!
