The Sweetest Medicine

Chapter 201: Debate, the charm of Yu Gangan (1)

Views:

Yu Gangan was pulled to the front by Wang Aizhen.

In today's seminar, she was still the most conscientious listener and had no intention of publishing anything.

When Xiao Xiaoying started to speak, Yu Gangan had a strange premonition that he might be named.

as expected.

"Traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for thousands of years. It is not so much the development of the West that has caused Chinese medicine to decline, but it is better to say that Chinese medicine has fallen into its own mysteries."

Xiao Xiaoying said, "Although I am a Chinese medicine doctor, what I hate the most is that some Chinese medicine doctors like to be mysterious and talk to patients about yin, yang and five elements at every turn."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xiaoying looked at Yu Gangan: "Doctor Yu, looking at his young age, his medical skills must be extraordinary, otherwise he would not be sitting here. I have a question to ask Dr. Yu."

Yu Gangan replied politely: "Doctor Xiao, you are ridiculous. As a junior, I dare not praise myself. My grandfather has excellent medical skills. I have only learned a few superficial things from him, so I should ask all the seniors for advice."

Xiao Xiaoying's voice was a little strange: "Doctor Yu said that Chinese medicine is based on metaphysics. Doesn't this mean that Chinese medicine is a black hole knowledge? It is so confusing, and it will only make Chinese medicine never catch up with Western medicine."

Yu Gangan smiled and replied: "Just like Western medicine is derived from rigorous chemistry and anatomy, Chinese medicine is derived from the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements..."

Xiao Xiaoying interrupted Yu Gangan.

She said very forcefully: "The oldest medical prescription book in my country, "Fifty-Two Disease Prescriptions", does not talk about yin and yang at all, and there is no theory of the five elements. The metaphysics of traditional Chinese medicine began in the Southern Song Dynasty. Confucian scholars entered medicine and used medicine to They use decoctions and medicines as a means of livelihood, thinking that if they can recite a few decoctions and formulas, they can register for treatment, huh! Chinese medicine is ruined in the hands of this group of people."

She was sarcastic, saying that she relied on Confucian scholars to enter medicine, and scolded Yu Gangan for his incompetence.

He doesn’t understand medicine, he just wants to gain fame through medicine.

Yu Gangan never felt that he would be different because of his age, which would arouse the indignation of others.

After all, her grandfather had taught her how to diagnose pulse and prescribe medical treatments since she was ten years old.

Xiao Xiaoying's contempt and ridicule did not make Yu Gangan angry.

There was no retort.

She was just extremely serious and said calmly: "Medical Saint Li Shizhen is also a Confucian scholar. You can't kill everyone with one shot. The metaphysics of traditional Chinese medicine does not seem to refer to all the medicines of traditional Chinese medicine at first. It initially refers to the acupoints and meridians theory of traditional Chinese medicine." , when the scientific and technological level of Western medicine could not distinguish whether these things existed, metaphysics came into being, but in modern medicine, the West has already proven the existence of acupuncture points and meridians in the human body."

A faint sarcastic look appeared on Xiao Xiaoying's face.

The theory of acupuncture points and meridians is true.

But it doesn't mean that this is also true for Yu Gangan.

Yu Gangan continued: "Western medicine uses tests and examinations to confirm that there is a certain disease in the human body, while the diagnostic method of traditional Chinese medicine is to make inferences after hearing, hearing, asking, and analyzing. Western medicine has a standard plan for the treatment of each disease, and traditional Chinese medicine But it is different. One hundred people studying Chinese medicine can deduce a hundred different theories. Chinese medicine does not have a standard basic knowledge system. It is difficult for scholars to learn and difficult for users to use. Just relying on the knowledge in medical books will never work. It’s impossible for anyone to become a great doctor, that’s why I say Chinese medicine is mysterious.”
