Chapter 35: Xiao Family's Gratitude (Seeking Collection and Recommendation)
The processing of Rehmannia, that's easy to say. Just instruct and it can be done casually. However, the processing of Rhizoma Polygonati is different. If you are slightly careless, it may lead to the loss of vital energy, which can cause the entire treatment to fail. Therefore, this task cannot be entrusted to others.
Just as the Xiao family was anxiously waiting, time had turned to noon. Tang Zheng had already brought in the fully prepared medicinal materials into the central hall.
Hand over the medicinal herbs to Xiao Qiankun beside him and say: "Uncle Xiao, trouble you to find a sand pot for decocting medicine. Decoct Huangqi, Shanyao, Dihuang and Biejia into a soup. Crush the Biejia. The others are all sliced. First use high heat to boil, then use low heat to simmer slowly. Half an hour later, I'll be using it.
As he spoke, Tang Zheng followed Xiang Zhenhai into Old Master Xiang's room. At this moment, only one doctor was left in the house. An expert from the Central Health Bureau. Old Master Xiang's personal doctor for many years. It can be said that he is already a member of the Xiang family and can be fully trusted.
He is here, on the one hand to monitor the situation. On the other hand, it also means to inspect. As for this, Tang Zheng didn't have any opinion. Others were a bit worried, which was normal too. As for the confidentiality issue, Tang Zheng had already told the Xiao family about it and wouldn't spread it around casually.
An innocent man with a jade pendant is guilty, having a magical medical skill is indeed a good thing, able to change one's fate and future. However, whether or not he has the ability to keep it is also a problem.
It's only been a little over a day since I last saw Old Master Xiao, and his complexion has become even more dull. This situation is a sign that the vital energy in his body is dissipating at all times. When it can no longer be supported, it will be the time of his passing.
Open your medicine box. Take out the Jiuyang wooden needles, each one carefully wipe clean, and then place them on a piece of white silk.
A hundred-year-old ginseng, all cut into thin slices. Tang Zheng's treatment method is completely different from traditional Chinese medicine today.
The simplest distinction lies in the use of Jun medicine, Bai Nian Shan Shen. However, it is completely different from modern traditional Chinese medicine. According to the theory of prescription, Jun Chen Zu Shi should be mixed together for use. But here in Tang Zhen's approach, Jun medicine is listed separately and used alone.
This time, Tang Zheng adopted a lost needling technique from the tradition. The Five Elements Revival Needling Technique. This is somewhat related to modern traditional Chinese medicine. According to the Five Elements and Five Organs theory.
Wu Xing Huán Hún Zhēn Fǎ, the main needling technique is to use the needle as a medium, applying the yin-yang heart meridian to stimulate the five zang organs of the human body: heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, thereby stimulating the body's inherent energy essence and vital essence.
Although the old man's body was near death and his spirit was not good, however, his attitude was very optimistic. Smiling at Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng picked up a slice of ginseng with his tweezers and smiled, saying: "Old master, you hold the ginseng in your mouth. When you feel that the ginseng is getting a bit rough and can't stimulate saliva production anymore, just let me know and I'll replace it with a new one. Now, I'm going to administer the needle."
"Heh heh, young man, since my big and second sons both think you're capable, then give it a try. Death is not scary, living is glorious, dying is great. I've lived for 80 or 90 years already, that's enough." The old man's words were very open-minded.
This also made Tang Zheng somewhat admire him. A person who can laugh at life and death, facing it calmly, is worthy of admiration.
Concentrate your mind and follow the five elements to restore the soul needle technique. Tang Zheng's fingers quickly changed and transformed, constantly changing postures.
This is the unique technique of Wu Xing Huanshen Needle, don't think that needling is just simply inserting the needle into the body. If it were that simple, then Chinese medicine wouldn't be worthy of being called Chinese medicine.
The debate about traditional Chinese medicine lies between pseudoscience and science. This is because there are inexplicable things in the theory and practice of traditional Chinese medicine, which cannot be understood by reason. However, Tang Zhen was very clear about this, as traditional Chinese medicine originated from the shamanic medicine of ancient times.
Such a technique is not simply mysterious, nor is it just for show, but rather it has real practical uses. Each gesture, when performed, mobilizes the yin and yang true energy within Tang Zheng's body.
As the needles pierced in one by one, Grandpa's bodily functions were also undergoing changes. According to the principle of the Five Elements generating each other: Metal generates Water, Water generates Wood, Wood generates Fire, Fire generates Earth, and Earth generates Metal. The Five Elements circulated, achieving a balance of the Five Elements throughout the entire body.
The old man's complexion also underwent a significant change, becoming rosier. This left the health bureau expert standing next to him staring in amazement: "A miracle has indeed occurred among ordinary people." If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he absolutely wouldn't have believed it if someone else had told him.
The whole process looks slow, but in fact it is relatively long. As the five elements rotate, Lao Ye Zi's body needs more vitality, at this time, Jun Yao, Bai Nian Shan Shen's role comes out.
Such a complete hundred-year-old ginseng, if used for ordinary tonics, would probably not be used up even after dozens of times. However, at this moment, it is used up all at once. The purpose is to use the yuanqi of the old ginseng to supplement the nutrients needed by the human body. This is the role of the monarch drug.
An hour later, the whole old ginseng was used up. At this moment, the vitality energy in the old man's body had basically reached a saturated state.
Tang Zheng carefully observed Lao Ye Zi's complexion, and after confirming that there was no major problem, he finally put his mind at ease. He pulled out the Jiuyang wooden needle and placed it aside before turning around to open the door. Facing Xiao Qiankun at the entrance, he said: "Kun-ge, hurry up and bring it in."
At the same time, Tang Zheng had already soaked the Ziheche into the medicinal broth. The scalding hot water completely immersed the Ziheche, releasing its purest life essence into the liquid. This was why Ziheche was used as a guide drug. With the life essence of Ziheche, it would activate the Danshen and the rest of the medicinal broth, producing a nourishing effect on the entire body's physiological functions.
Tang Zheng personally took the medicine, waited for it to cool down after brewing, then scooped out the Zi He Che. He handed the medicine over to Old Man Xiao. After Old Man Xiao drank it, this treatment was finally complete.
After waiting for half an hour, at this moment, Xiao Lao Yezi was completely different from before. Feeling the changes in his body, Xiao Lao Yezi took the initiative to walk down.
Open the door, outside the door, three people of Xiao Zhenhai siblings, seeing the old man's appearance, all of them were stunned. Xiao Qiankun was also full of joy at this moment, and he gave Tang Zheng a thumbs up. At this moment, Xiao Qiankun was completely convinced that the little brother introduced by the old man was simply a godlike person.
For the next two days, Tang Zheng still stayed here. Mainly to see how Old Master Xiao's recovery was going. However, others had doubts. But Tang Zheng himself was very clear that this inheritance wasn't something to be taken lightly.
Two days later, Lao Ye Zi's body had fully recovered. After a professional examination by the Health Bureau, they also came to the conclusion that Xiao Lao Ye Zi's body had mysteriously recovered.
Originally, the health bureau's experts were curious and wanted to come over to take a look, but they were rejected by Old Master Xiao. As people get older, they become more astute, and in this regard, Old Master Xiao was still perceptive. The medical skills of Little Tang were absolutely confidential.
……
In the capital city, next to the famous Red Tower Hall in the courtyard of the Planning Committee, there is an ordinary dormitory building. In a three-bedroom suite, Xiao Zhenhai and Xiao Zhenshan, two brothers, are present. Next to them is Song Wenli. Xiao Xiao and Xiao Qiankun from the younger generation are also by their side.
After Old Master recovered, Xiao Zhen Shan returned to his own home. Although Xiao Zhen Shan was working in the Central Sea, he had left from this side and still had a house here. Generally speaking, when returning to the Imperial City, Xiao Zhen Shan would stay on this side.
"Xiao Tang, thanks to you this time. Uncle Xiao doesn't know what to say either. There's something I'd like to ask for your opinion." Xiang Zhen Shan said after a moment of deliberation.
Looking at Tang Zheng, Xiao Zhen Shan continued: "Little Tang, Uncle Xiao's meaning is to prepare to transfer your work relationship to the Zhonghai City Cadre Health Bureau. With your ability and level, with your TCM level, plus Professor Zhou's, it's no problem to serve as an expert in the Health Bureau. Of course, if you want to go to Zhonghai No. 1 Hospital for a shift on ordinary days, that's also possible."
Professor Zhou is the personal physician of Xiao Lao Da Ye, and he is a well-known expert in the Central Health Bureau. With him as a health expert in Zhonghai City, there will be no problem at all.
Tang Zheng was also stunned at this moment, with some shock in his heart. The thanks from the Xiao family had been thought about many times before. But this was beyond expectation. Compared to just giving money as a thank you, this was truly a grand gesture. A graduate who hadn't even graduated yet was directly appointed as an expert in the Health Bureau. It could be imagined that the Xiao family must have put in a lot of effort. Moreover, this was much better than a normal job.
He fell silent for a moment, and at this time, Tang Zheng was also considering his own medical skills. Treating ordinary illnesses had no meaning to it. Moreover, it could be foreseen that many patients would disperse in all directions. If he really followed the rules and went to work, it would indeed be somewhat troublesome. Thinking of this, Tang Zheng also nodded and said: "Xiao Shu, then thank you."
Seeing Tang Zheng agree, Xiao Zhenhai also breathed a sigh of relief. This time, saving the old man was perhaps an easy task for Tang Zheng, but it was crucial for the Xiao family. With these five or six years, the glory of the Xiao family could continue to be extended.
Just now, Xiao Zhenhai was really worried that Tang Zheng would not accept it. At this moment, he has put his heart at ease. Xiao Zhenhai also smiled and said: "Little Tang, I have prepared a small gift for you, it's downstairs, let Qiankun take you to see."
Xiao Qiankun's face also showed some envy. He patted Tang Zheng's shoulder and pulled him out, as soon as they reached the downstairs, Tang Zheng was stunned. The gift from Xiao's family is too generous.
