——Excerpt from "Prescriptions for Emergencies" by Sun Simiao (Tang Dynasty)

……

Bai Fu's acupuncture and medicine therapy has very quick results, and once healed, he will not repeat it.What's more rare is that the acupuncture method used by Bai Fu is the most basic acupuncture method among the nine acupuncture methods in Qingcheng, which is easy to learn and popularize.Qingcheng disciples are teaching while treating illnesses.It is easy for the common people to learn it as soon as they learn it.The severe patients in the C camp were given acupuncture by disciples of Qingcheng, the mild patients were rescued by themselves, and those without lesions were prevented in advance.In this way, the healing speed of Camp C was greatly accelerated, and the spread of the disease was effectively suppressed.As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish, which is clearly reflected here.

Bai Fu's prescriptions are also very particular. The medicinal materials used are all low-grade and common herbs. They are not only easy to find, but also cheap.It is suitable for large-scale boiling and is convenient for popularization and use among the public.It fully embodies the spirit of the words of Sun Simiao, the king of traditional Chinese medicine in "The Great Physician Sincerity", "Don't treat others with wealth, give them precious medicines, make them hard to find, show off their abilities, and forgive them is not the way of loyalty and forgiveness".

Qingcheng disciples set up a cauldron in Bingying to torture them, and distributed them to the common people for free.Men, women and children, each take a big cup.Drink several doses in a row, that is, the breath will flow through sweating, and the diet will be improved a little, and the spirit will be restored.Even if there is no disease in ordinary life, if you take it on an empty stomach, you will eat twice as often, and you will be free from all diseases.

Even Ding Shujian, who has been practicing medicine for many years, is full of praise for this side.Ding Shujian humbly asked for advice, and said, "Brother Fu, Guizhi Decoction is the top prescription in Zhongjing Group, and it is also a prescription we often use, but the combination of various medicines is mysterious. Mahuang Decoction and Guizhi Decoction can relieve the sun, and Qianjin Reed Stem Decoction can lower the sun. Ming means to treat the combination of Taiyang and Yangming diseases. Erchen Decoction and Sanzi Yangqin Decoction transport the spleen and eliminate dampness, and combine Qianjin Weigan Decoction to relieve the power of Taiyin and Yangming, dredging the lungs and collaterals, resolving phlegm and releasing turbidity. You Miao The reed rhizome is hollow like a lung, and is good at expelling the stagnation of the lung orifices.

I don't know the method of combining various medicines, where did the younger brother learn it from? "

Bai Fu smiled and said: "This prescription was passed on to me by the Grand Tutor. It is derived from the "Prescription of Thousand Gold". It is the secret prescription for treating plague that the Grand Tutor got from Sun Simiao, the king of medicine. , its experience is unique. Speaking of it, there is an interesting story in it:

When Sun Simiao, king of medicine, lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, he had close contacts with a monk named Xuanlu, and they often discussed Taoism together.

For a period of time, there was a severe drought in Chang'an, and the crops dried up and there was no harvest.

A Hu monk from the Western Regions claimed to know magic and could pray for rain for the people.When the Hu monk faced the saint, he begged the saint to allow him to build a Dharma altar in Kunming Lake, Chang'an, and to give him incense lamps and other sacrificial vessels in the ancestral temple, so that he could sacrifice to the sky and pray for rain.

Xuanzong was overjoyed, not only agreed to his request, but also asked the court to prepare sacrificial vessels for monk Hu to cast spells.

Monk Hu wore cassock and cast spells on the altar every day. For seven consecutive days, the water level of Kunming Pool dropped every day.On the seventh day, Kunming Pond dropped several feet.If you continue to eat, Kunming Lake will change from a lake to a tidal flat in a short time.Although the onlookers didn't see any rain, they felt that Monk Hu was a good man and that rain was just around the corner.

On the night of the seventh day, suddenly an old man with white beard and hair came to Mount Zhongnan and asked Monk Xuanlu to save his life.

Monk Xuanlu said: "I'm a monk, far away from the world, old man, I'm afraid you have found the wrong person."

The old man shook his head and said, "Only eminent monks will believe what I want to say, that's why I found you."

Monk Xuanlu felt that there was something in the old man's words, so he invited the old man into the house to discuss in detail.

The old man said: "The disciple is the Dragon King of Kunming Lake in Chang'an. This time there has been no rain in Chang'an area for a long time. The responsibility is not with the disciple, but with other secrets.

The purpose of casting spells at the monk Hu's altar is not to pray for rain, but to covet the borneols of our dragon clan, intending to kill the disciples and steal the disciples' brains for medicine.

Monk Hu fabricated a lie to deceive the emperor and asked the emperor to give him incense lamps and other ancestral temple sacrificial vessels to enhance his mana.Now he traps my real body with sorcery and draws my dragon blood every day.In three more days, my life will be over.Now, my life is on the verge of death, and I also ask the eminent monk to help me, and beg the monk to protect me with magic power. "

Monk Xuanlu declined and said: "I am just a practitioner of discipline. Although I have a rough understanding of some Taoism, my Taoism is only to assist in cultivation, and I have no effort to save people from outside. I also sympathize with your matter. Let me recommend a person to you, he has profound Taoism and will definitely be able to save you."

Therefore, Monk Xuanlu recommended Sun Simiao to the old man.

The old man then came to the Siyi stone room where Sun Simiao practiced for help.

After listening to it, Sun Simiao said to the old man: "I know that you Kunming Dragon Palace has three thousand fairy recipes. If you are willing to teach me these fairy recipes, I will definitely save you."

The old man said: "This place belongs to the heavens, and our Dragon Palace is just in charge. The heavens don't allow us to spread the heavenly scriptures without authorization."

Sun Simiao said to the old man: "The grievance between you and Monk Hu is also determined by cause and effect. If you want me to intervene in the karma between you and Monk Hu, you have to pay some price. I have set out a condition, and it is up to you whether you agree or not."

The old man stomped his feet and said, "I'm in a hurry now, and there's nothing I can do." Not long after, the old man arrived with a prescription.

After Sun Simiao verified it was correct, he said to the old man, "Go back to the Dragon Palace, don't worry about Monk Hu, I will do what I promised you."

That night, the water in Kunming Pond rose sharply, and a few days later, it overflowed the embankment.Monk Hu roared, vomited blood, and died in shame and anger.

Sun Simiao tried to cure the disease with the prescription given by the old man, and the effect was amazing.Later, he compiled 230 volumes of "Prescriptions of Thousand Gold", and compiled the prescriptions of Dragon Palace into the book. "Thousands of Gold Prescriptions" consists of [-] prescriptions and [-] poems. It has a wide collection of prescriptions and rich content. It is divided into [-] categories.It not only involves detoxification, first aid, health preservation, diet therapy, but also acupuncture, massage, guidance, and breathing. "A Thousand Golden Prescriptions" is profound in Taoism, showing Sun Simiao's extensive medical resources and superb medical skills, encouraging more literati to embark on the road of hanging pots to help the world, cure diseases and save lives, which can be described as a great contribution.

After hearing this, Ding Shujian was very moved, and said: "Decades ago, the medicine king went from Taibai Mountain to Zhongnan Mountain to collect medicine. He met a group of mourners on the way. After the group beat and beat, there were a few drops of strange blood left on the ground. These few days A drop of blood dripped from the coffin.

Yao Wang leaned over and sniffed the blood, feeling that something was vaguely wrong.So he hurriedly caught up with the funeral procession, asking the bottom line.The funeral procession was furious and scolded Yao Wang for being rude and disrespectful to the deceased.Later, it was heard that the King of Medicine was here, and the turmoil subsided after a storm.

The family members of the deceased told Yao Wang that there was a young woman in the coffin who had just died of dystocia, leaving one dead and two dead.Sun Simiao sniffed the smell of the coffin again, inspected the blood that flowed out, concluded that the young woman was not dead, her soul was still there, and she might be saved, so she persuaded the relatives of the deceased to open the coffin.

The young woman inside the coffin was pale, her brows were tightly knit, and her appearance was lifelike.Yao Wang, in everyone's astonishment, found the acupuncture point and injected it. The young woman groaned, her whole body twitched, and she slowly woke up.

While everyone was still in shock, the medicine king administered the needle again, only to hear a loud cry of the baby, a baby boy was born from the young woman's body, and the mother and child were safe.

In the next few days, under the conditioning of the master of medicine, not only did the young woman recover as before, but the baby boy was also healthy, lively, intelligent and lovely.In the end, he grew up smoothly. "

Bai Fu was stunned, and said, "This story is more horrifying and unimaginable than mine."

Ding Shujian said: "The story you tell may be a beautiful myth, but mine is a real story, and this baby boy is my father!

The life of the king of medicine, the achievements in the present, the benefits in the future!His old man died in the first year of Yongchun.It's a pity that I was born too late, and I couldn't see the demeanor of the old man face to face, let alone thank the old man for his life on behalf of my father. "

Bai Fuyao thought of Yao Wang's demeanor and empathized with him, and said: "I heard from the Taifu that Yao Wang is still alive."

Ding Shujian was shocked, and said: "Then he is almost two hundred years old?"

Bai Fu nodded and said with a smile: "Li Xuexuan told the Taifu that the King of Medicine is now reclusive and cultivating immortals in Mount Emei. There are hundreds of acres of apricot trees next to the hermit temple, and it is full of trees. Here, there is a tiger kneeling down to seek medical treatment. Sun Simiao created the "Tiger Brace" The method of "cures the disease of the tiger. This tiger is psychic, and it will no longer harm humans and animals. In order to repay the kindness of the medicine king, he guards the apricot forest for the temple and serves as the mount of the medicine king.

If the senior brother is destined, he will definitely meet. "
