Chapter 1949 Yellow and White in Man…
“This old guy.”
In the northeast, in the mansion in the forest, when Saint Doctor Chu received the news, he immediately plummeted his eyebrows, looking as if he was worrying about Fang Qiu ever so slightly.
“Surprisingly, he messed up even more ruthlessly than Zhuge and I. According to the way he’s messing up, how long will this examination have to go on?”
……
Kyoto.
“What in the world does the old bull want to do, in view of Fang Qiu’s performance, even if he wants to test him, he can’t test the foundation of Chinese herbal medicine, can he, could it be that this old man is looking at Fang Qiu’s strength in the use of internal qi is too strong, so he wants to drill a hole, testing Fang Qiu’s most basic knowledge of the fundamentals of Chinese medicine, and wants to pull out Fang Qiu’s weaknesses from it?”
Sitting inside the courtyard’s patio, Zhuge Yan drank tea while looking up at the starry sky, his mouth brokenly talking to himself.
The other side.
In a big, luxurious hotel in Kyoto.
“What the hell does the old bull want?”
Although Xu Miaolin did not go with Fang Qiu with him, he had been paying attention to Fang Qiu’s trip, after all, he was Fang Qiu’s teacher, and if not for the fact that the Niu Sage Doctor did not allow it, he would have definitely gone with Fang Qiu.
“No.”
After realizing what Fang Qiu encountered on his first day in Sage Doctor Niu’s herb garden, Xu Miaolin’s complexion sank as he muttered, “It’s impossible to say, this old man is going to trip Fang Qiu, I’ve already sent out the news that I’m preparing to convene the Traditional Chinese Medicine Conference in advance, if Fang Qiu gives him a mix-up, wouldn’t I, as a teacher, be losing all my face? ”
Mindful of this.
In Xu Miaolin’s heart, she couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious at once.
“No, I’ve got to call the old bull and ask him what he’s up to!”
Said.
Xu Miaolin immediately took out his cell phone and dialed Sage Doctor Niu’s number.
“Hello?”
The phone was quickly connected, and the voice of the Ox Saint Doctor’s words came from the other end of the line.
“An old cow?”
The phone is connected, Xu Miaolin did not half hesitate, directly opened his mouth and said: “What do you want in the end, you say it clearly, okay, you go on like this, when is a head ah?”
“Oh.”
I don’t know if Sage Doctor Niu had heard Xu Miaolin’s questioning voice clearly, but after Xu Miaolin finished speaking, he froze slightly before opening his mouth to say, “I’m sorry, I don’t buy health care products.”
After saying that, he just hung up the phone.
Xu Miaolin was speechless.
He knew that the Sacred Doctor Niu had definitely done it on purpose.
He just doesn’t want to say what he really wants!
Hopeless.
Since the phone was hung up by the other party, Xu Miaolin had no way to continue to call again with a thick skin.
“Looks like it’s just going to have to wait.”
Putting down his cell phone, Xu Miaolin couldn’t help but shake his head and let out a bitter smile as he murmured, “I hope that this old man won’t be too ruthless, with Fang Qiu’s strength, he shouldn’t be easily quizzed by him.”
……
The next day, five o’clock in the morning.
Fang Qiu woke up early and ran and exercised inside the herb garden until the morning sun rose in the east, and only then did the Niu Sage Doctor come out of his room.
“It’s only six o’clock, I thought I was up early enough, I didn’t realize you boys were up earlier than me.”
When he saw Fang Qiu, Sacred Doctor Niu realized that Fang Qiu was all done with his morning exercises, and immediately couldn’t help but exclaim, “In this day and age, it’s rare to see young people who are as disciplined as you are.”
Fang Qiu stopped and opened his mouth to ask, “Saint Doctor Niu, can we continue our examination?”
“What’s the rush?”
Saint Doctor Niu shook his head and said, “Eat breakfast first, and nourish your stomach before you have the strength to do anything.”
Having said that.
He went into the kitchen to fiddle around by himself.
Fang Qiu wanted to help, but he was kicked out just as he reached the kitchen door.
There was nothing to do but wait.
Not for a while.
Saint Doctor Niu walked out carrying a tray with two large cups of freshly ground soybean milk and a few corn tortillas on top of it.
“Here, taste my handiwork.”
Walking over to the tea table and sitting down, Sage Doctor Niu directly placed the tray on the tea table and handed over a cup of freshly ground soybean milk to Fang Qiu, signaling him to eat the cake.
Fang Qiu was not polite either.
He hadn’t been tossed around by the other guy himself anyway.
“Smells good.”
After taking a bite, Fang Qiu was immediately surprised and asked, “This is not seasoned at all?”
“What is seasoning, the most natural things are the most nourishing, young people eat less seasoning.”
The Holy Doctor of Cow said.
Fang Qiu nodded with a bitter smile.
He naturally understood this reasoning, and the reason he smiled bitterly was because, no matter what he did, the Niu Saint Doctor could find a way to teach him a few lessons.
In fact, the corn pancakes without seasoning did smell good, but it didn’t smell so good that it could be praised, and the reason why Fang Qiu said that was just to make Sage Doctor Niu happy to hear it.
As a result, it was taught a lesson.
A little.
After finishing a pancake, the cow sage doctor simply put the pancake away.
“Don’t eat much for breakfast.”
On his way out, he lectured Fang Qiu again, but he himself grabbed the second pancake from the tray with his own hand.
No way.
Fang Qiu could only smile bitterly and drink a whole cup of freshly ground soy milk in one gulp.
“Okay.”
Walking out of the kitchen, the Ox Saint Doctor wiped the soybean milk stains from the corners of his mouth once, while opening his mouth to say, “Let’s begin.”
Said.
Walking straight over, he picked out ten herbs from the thousand or so that Fang Qiu had picked yesterday.
“Your task now is to concoct these ten herbs.”
The cow sage doctor said.
“Oh?”
Fang Qiu swept a glance in surprise, and among the ten herbs, he saw Astragalus.
That’s a familiar herb to him.
Not only was it concocted during a taping of the Young National Physicians program, but yesterday it was explained in detail how to concoct astragalus.
This way.
When Sage Doctor Niu saw Fang Qiu’s gaze screw on the astragalus, he froze slightly, then opened his mouth and said, “As I recall, within these ten herbs, there is a medicine that you seem to have concocted.”
With that, he walked up and took away the astragalus, replacing it with another herb.
The scene.
But it froze Fang Qiu in his tracks.
It’s hard to see a familiar one, but it’s taken away in a flash?
“You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”
Looking at the Niu Saint Doctor, Fang Qiu smiled bitterly and said something dark in his heart.
He knows.
It’s not appropriate to ask such things directly.
Even if he did ask, it would only be an embarrassment to himself, so he simply didn’t ask and just put on a rebellious demeanor.
“Well ……”
Seeing that Fang Qiu didn’t have any complaints, Sage Doctor Niu continued to open his mouth and said, “I didn’t get the Xiong Huang, Spotted Pear and Leeches yesterday, did I? One is a stone, one is an insect, and one is a water animal, and I got them all for you today.”
Fang Qiu smiled bitterly.
Keep looking.
Among these ten herbs, he was surprised to also see Renzhong Bai and Renzhong Huang.
When Fang Qiu’s gaze reached him, Saint Doctor Niu couldn’t help but heave a smile.
“Where did these two come from?”
Fang Qiu asked.
Sage Doctor Niu’s face was red and he coughed gently twice without gasping, then he glanced at the two herbs, reached out and pointed to the distance and said, “There’s a toilet right over there.”
Words.
Fang Qiu was speechless.
Of these two herbs, white in man is a product of human urine and yellow in man is a product of human feces …..
The sight of it made one a little nauseous, not to mention the point in time when he had just eaten his breakfast, and it looked as if that was likely the reason why the Niu Sage Doctor had not allowed him to eat more.
It’s a little gross though.
However, Fang Qiu didn’t have much else to do.
Since it was a test question from the Niu Sage Doctor, he couldn’t refuse it.
There’s no way out. Do it!
Anyway, when he saw these ten flavors of medicine, Fang Qiu really realized that these ten flavors of medicine involved all kinds of concoctions.
Obviously.
Sage Doctor Niu was sincerely trying to test his concoctions of herbs.
“Ready?”
The Holy Doctor of Cow asked.
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu nodded affirmatively.
“Good.”
Sage Doctor Niu nodded with a satisfied smile, then reached out and pointed to a small room next door to the kitchen, saying, “The tools and materials you need can be found inside that room, so since you’re ready, let’s get started straight away.”
Having said that.
Walking over to the tea table and sitting down, he began to leisurely clean the tea tray, tea cup and teapot, looking like he was ready to make another pot.
This way.
Fang Qiu didn’t dare to hesitate at all.
Because he didn’t know, whether there would be any other whatever test next, so he had to hurry up and get on with it, after all, this was the concoction of ten herbs, concocting these ten herbs required quite a lot of energy, and the more crucial thing was that the concoction of herbs was a particularly serious matter, it simply couldn’t be concocted at the same time, and it could only be done one flavor at a time.
In this way.
It would take quite a bit of time to finish concocting all ten of these herbs.
Get your hands dirty.
Fang Qiu first picked up Xiong Huang and prepared to concoct Xiong Huang first, after all, this thing was a stone, compared to other herbs, it would not be so troublesome to concoct.
Andrographis, a sulfide mineral containing mainly arsenic disulfide.
Fang Qiu remembered it well.
The ancient concoctions for sulfur are very numerous and have been documented in all the major medical books.
For example, the Nei Jing records that “freshly drawn water is ground”. The Ben Jing recorded “refining”. According to “The Queen of Elbow”, the vinegar system of Liang Dynasty was as follows: burn it to make it red, use rice vinegar to make it red, and then burn it even more to make it red, and then the stone would be as soft as mud, and then scrape it and apply it to the swelling.
Beyond that.
In the North and South Dynasties there was medicinal treatment, and in the Tang Dynasty there was boiling in oil, broiling, simmering and boiling.
In the Song Dynasty, it was boiled in vinegar and made of peach leaves.
Ming and Qing have concoctions such as honey decoction, turpentine system, white radish steaming, and bamboo steaming.
Sure.
Fang Qiu was also very clear.
What the Niu Sage Doctor quizzed him on was not the ancient concoctions, after all, after thousands of years of development, these concoctions have been simplified a lot, and even better concoctions have emerged in modern times.
Thus, it is modern concoctions that the cow sage doctor will be tested on.
Pick up the staghorn.
Fang Qiu immediately walked into the material room that Sage Doctor Niu had just reminded him of, took out a wall breaker from it, took out the small bucket that had been filled with water, and walked out.
This way.
Seeing the tools that Fang Qiu had taken out, the Niu Sacred Doctor, who was still cleaning the tea set, gave a faint smile and did not speak.
Fang Qiu didn’t pause either.
After taking it out.
Wash the staghorn first to get rid of some of the earthy impurities that the staghorn itself carries.
Only after removing all the impurities, Fang Qiu opened the wall-breaker, put the andrographis into it, then added the right amount of water, plugged in the electricity, and used the wall-breaker to grind the powder.
When the andrographis was finely ground, Fang Qiu stopped the wall-breaker, the water inside and the andrographis that had been ground into the end were all poured out, and in the case of each pouring out cleanly, more water was added into it, and all of them were poured out without a single bit of residue, and then the suspension was taken.
