Lovely Wife from Heaven: Husband, it's amazing

Chapter 74 Medical Classics
Ge Hong's small courtyard not only has a medicine garden, but also a pharmacy. The medicines in the pharmacy are all processed and can be directly used as medicine.

It is not easy to learn the knowledge of herbal medicine. You must first know its original appearance, then learn how to process herbal medicine, and know the pharmacology of mutual generation and mutual restraint between herbal medicines. There are really many things to know.

Ge Hong was there like chanting sutras. He picked up a medicine and began to say: "This is light bamboo leaves, sweet, light, and cold. Guixin, stomach, and small intestine meridian. It is mainly used for clearing away heat and restlessness, and diuresis. Red astringency, dripping pain, sore mouth and tongue."

After finishing speaking, he picked up another medicine, and continued: "This is white peony, bitter and sour, cool. It enters the liver and spleen meridian. It nourishes blood and softens the liver, relieves pain in the middle, restrains yin and absorbs sweat. Diarrhea and abdominal pain, spontaneous night sweats, fever due to yin deficiency, irregular menstruation, metrorrhagia, and vaginal discharge. Take it with caution for those with abdominal pain and diarrhea due to deficiency and cold."

Jing Ran couldn't hear it, but he didn't dare to interrupt Ge Hong. He didn't even have a pen and paper, so he couldn't make notes. What should he do if he almost forgot after listening?

Jing Ran's brows were knit together, and he looked at his junior brother Xun Xin with a half-understanding look.

Ge Hong looked at the two of them and said: "Studying medicine is not a one-time thing. It takes a long time just to memorize the names, properties, functions, and taboos of these herbs, and to learn how to cook them. Besides, you You also need to learn about pathology, acupuncture, pharmacology, meridians, etc.”

Jing Ran suddenly regretted that she said she wanted to study medicine, which was obviously very rare, and it was a hundred times more difficult than the physical, chemical, biological, and English she had learned in school.

Ge Hong said: "Since you have chosen to study medicine, you must be patient and learn. We doctors need to go through the four steps of 'seeing, hearing, asking, and cutting'. There is a lot of knowledge about the machine and so on. The treatment methods are even more complicated, including stone needles, acupuncture, decoction, moxibustion, Daoyin, air distribution, Zhuyou, etc. "

Jing Ran shouted in her heart: Is it okay for me to be my young mistress?Why do you want to find yourself unhappy? If you are not a master, how can you learn well!

Ge Hong said: "I usually have limited time, and my mood is good and bad. I can't always teach you. You can start with reading. Come and ask me at any time if you don't understand. Active learning is much better than passive learning."

Ge Hong turned around to go back to the room, Jing Ran was about to follow, Ge Hong turned around and said, "You don't need to go into the room, I'll find you a book, you wait for me here."

As soon as Ge Hong left, Jing Ran said to Xun Xin with a bitter face, "Can you listen to this? Do you think I can learn it?"

Xun Xin said: "I only seek immortality and alchemy. Since the master ordered me to learn together with you, it's okay, but this is not the purpose of my apprenticeship. It doesn't matter if I learn it or not. It's just that since you are apprenticed for To study medicine, one should study hard and not be afraid of this temporary difficulty. Getting started in everything is extremely difficult, but you are luckier than most people, you have such a good master."

Jing Ran said: "The master leads the door, and the practice is up to the individual. My master is really awesome, but I am a scum."

Ge Hong had already come out, holding a few books in his hand, all of which were the famous medical classics "Huangdi Neijing", "Maijing", "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Classics", "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" and "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber".

Ge Hong said: "Take these books and read them first. If you don't understand anything, come back and ask me, and I will explain to you. You try to memorize all these books, and I will test you."
