A doctor who travels through two eras

Since it is a matter of apprenticeship, there must be a apprenticeship banquet.

What is as difficult as climbing to the sky for others is as easy as pie for Lin Sanqi.

That night, Lin Sanqi asked Aunt Li to go home and locked the iron gate of the bungalow area to prevent outsiders or wild wolves from accidentally breaking in.

For today's apprenticeship banquet, Lin Sanqi invited Vice President Ji and Section Chief Yang Shaohua separately. Firstly, he had to think of his leaders when he had delicious food to eat, and secondly, he wanted these two people to be witnesses.

Without witnesses, many things cannot be explained clearly. It would be a disaster if people in later generations do not acknowledge the apprenticeship of Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye. After all, this kind of apprenticeship is just kowtow and tea, without any video or certificate.

Today's apprenticeship banquet has beef hotpot prepared.

For people in 1960, the intake of animal protein was seriously insufficient. Not eating meat for a long time would cause malnutrition, physical fatigue, weight loss, reduced resistance, and induce anemia.

Young people can still hold on, but old people are really troubled.

So don’t talk about delicacies from land and sea, or the Manchu-Han banquet. Dishes that are too exquisite will lose the original taste and nutrition of the food. So for people in famine years, the best food is meat, and they should eat it in large chunks.

If you ask Lin Sanqi to cook, he doesn’t know how.

So hot pot is the best. Add some green vegetables that are rare in this era, and serve plates of raw beef with some Erba sauce. It can best satisfy a person's appetite and is also nutritionally comprehensive.

Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye performed the duties of disciples and served everyone obediently this time.

Lin Sanqi kept cutting beef. This was all yak beef he got in Yushu last year, and he used the tenderest neck tenderloin part.

Pan Ye was like a waiter in a restaurant, constantly serving dishes and pouring wine. The atmosphere in the small bungalow was quite lively.

I guess in the whole country, only this Changping farm has people eating and drinking so lavishly.

After eating and drinking, the 12 old men headed by Mr. Shi Jinmo sat in two rows, Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye squatted on the ground, and Vice President Ji acted as the cameraman. They took a group photo, which can be regarded as a historical witness.

After taking the photos, Vice President Ji and Section Chief Yang said goodbye. Shi Jinmo asked Lin Sanqi to lock the gate of the courtyard, and then let Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye sit down. The old men sat cross-legged on the kang.

"Xiao Lin, Xiao Ye Zi, we have something to tell you."

Lin Yanyi knew that the real sex scene was about to begin, and he felt a little excited.

Unexpectedly, the first person to speak was not the leader Shi Jinmo, nor the most outspoken Jiang Zonghui, but Mr. Ren Yingqiu, the oldest among the 12 old national treasures.

The old man is 85 years old this year. He is easy-going, doesn’t talk much and is always smiling.

His historical problem is that he is a cousin of Mr. Kong and a fellow villager from Taigu, Shanxi. When he went to Nanjing to open a clinic, it was Mr. Kong who guaranteed him, and then... uh huh...

Mr. Ren took something out from behind him and said with a smile, "Xiao Lin, Xiao Yezi, come here, take this wooden box."

Lin Sanqi stood up and took the wooden box, thinking that since it was such a serious matter, there must be a treasure inside.

"Master Ren, then this..."

"There are two things in here. One is a list of books, which records the 235 medical books I brought from home to Changping. I packed them all in the afternoon and put them in several baskets.

Some of these medical books are handed down from my ancestors, some are collected through my hard work, and one is the result of my many years of experience. They are extremely precious not only to me personally, but also to Chinese medicine as a whole.

There are two copies of this list. I will send one to my family, and you keep the other. If my descendants come to find you in the future, you can only hand it over if the handwriting and content of the two copies are the same, to prevent someone from impersonating you."

"Master, rest assured. I will send the list of books to your home personally by registered mail."

Lin Sanqi nodded twice. This was something that had been agreed upon beforehand, so there was nothing special about it, so he agreed without hesitation.

Mr. Ren nodded with satisfaction, and then continued:

"I am old. I am 85 years old this year. It is rare for a person to live to , is a great fortune, and is a natural decline. My memory is not as good as before. I am afraid that I will die in a few years.

So this time I wrote down all the eight secret recipes in my mind, six of which were handed down from my Ren family, and two of which were created by me. These eight secret recipes are the hard work of my Ren family for hundreds of years, and are also the foundation of our Ren family. You must keep them well. "Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye's eyes widened. Good man, Lin Sanqi had thought about sex scenes, but he didn't think it would be so sexy?

The country was desperate for the secret recipes of these national treasures, but Mr. Ren actually trusted him so much that he gave them directly to his cheap apprentice?
The old man didn't know how rich Lin Sanqi's inner drama was, and he continued to remind her:
"Please keep this half of the jade pendant. If one day in the future, a descendant of my Ren family comes to get the secret recipe with this half of the jade pendant, you can check it. If the two pieces of the jade pendant match, you can give it to him. If they don't match, don't give it to him."

Lin Sanqi nodded repeatedly, thinking that although Mr. Ren was old, he was still very cunning and had made many anti-counterfeiting marks. The medical books and secret recipes were separately protected, apparently because he was afraid that they would be taken away by imposters in the future.

"Master Ren, you are not afraid that I will take a look at these eight secret recipes. I can tell you that I will definitely take a look at them out of my damn curiosity."

Lin Sanqi decided to be a villain first and a gentleman later. If he didn't look at or use this treasure, it would be like putting a bowl of water in the middle of the bed with a female colleague on a business trip, which was worse than an animal.

Who knew that Mr. Ren didn't care:
"Since you are my disciples, and the only two disciples around me, you can naturally see that since I am willing to entrust my life and property to you, I will naturally treat you as my own children without any grudges.

Times have changed. The more I think about the old forces theory you mentioned at noon, Xiaolin, the more it makes sense. As the saying goes, the first push is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted. Isn't this also true for Chinese medicine?
Our traditional Chinese medicine has already experienced life and death once during the Republic of China, and now it should go through a second ordeal. How many years will it take for this ordeal to pass? I am quite pessimistic and I don’t see the end in sight. ”

Lin Sanqi was calculating in his mind, thinking that it would take at least 20 years before dawn. The old men present would most likely not see that day unless something unexpected happened.

Mr. Ren was still expressing his views, and the other old men were listening attentively.

"According to my observation, our country's policy will definitely be to focus on Western medicine in the future. Otherwise, why is there only one Chinese medicine hospital in such a large capital, while there are more than a dozen Western medicine hospitals?
If we look at the medical offices of major enterprises and institutions, there are almost no TCM clinics. All of them are mainly Western medicine. This shows that Western medicine has become popular, while we TCM practitioners are still fighting among ourselves. We will eventually be forced into a corner by Western medicine."

Lin Sanqi complained in his heart again, thinking that although this old man was old, his vision was quite sharp.

In later generations, there were a total of 741 regular hospitals of all sizes in the capital, and only more than 20 traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, which was less than a fraction of the number of Western medicine hospitals.

In fact, even in traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, most departments are mainly based on Western medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine has become a supporting role. This is the embarrassing positioning of traditional Chinese medicine hospitals.

Pan Ye stood up and filled Mr. Ren's glass. The old man tapped the table a few times and continued:
"Traditional Chinese medicine and Taoism have the same origin and both emphasize following nature's will.

If the new society no longer needs Chinese medicine, the decline of Chinese medicine is inevitable, and it is God's will. By then, these medical books that we treasure and the secret recipes that we collect as if they were our lives may be worthless in the eyes of future generations.

If God gives Chinese medicine another chance to come back to life, it means we are not destined to die. We should work diligently and conscientiously to restore the reputation of Chinese medicine and let the world know the benefits of Chinese medicine.

So Xiaolin, Xiaoyezi, if you two really want to study my secret recipe, I welcome you sincerely. If one day my heritage is carried forward by you, it will also be the fulfillment of my life's hard work."

When Mr. Ren said this, a group of old men sighed.

How could they not see the trend of social development? Some of them even traveled abroad. They knew what foreign hospitals were like and what medicines they used.

Mr. Shi also sighed at this time:
"In 1930, I visited Japan. The Japanese had been learning Chinese medicine and taking Chinese medicine since ancient times. But after the Meiji era, they completely abandoned Chinese medicine and turned to Western medicine.

At that time, I thought that Chinese medicine was backward in that it could not complete surgical operations. Later, we had a competition. We had two pneumonia patients. The Japanese used Western medicine, and I used traditional Chinese medicine. At that time, many colleagues and reporters came.

A few days later, the results came out. Although I also cured pneumonia with traditional Chinese medicine, the Western medicine treatment method was more effective and took less time to recover. Another thing is that Western medicine only requires a few injections a day, which is simple to operate and easier for people to accept.

However, our Chinese medicine requires the preparation and decoction of medicine, which is a rather complicated process. In addition, the decoction tastes bitter and difficult to swallow, and the public has a low acceptance rate. This is a major flaw of our Chinese medicine.

Another shortcoming of Chinese medicine is that the theoretical knowledge is very old, lacking relevant experimental data and auxiliary examinations, but mainstream Western medicine attaches great importance to this aspect, so Chinese medicine is considered by foreigners to be a kind of witch doctor. "

Mr. Jiang was in a bad mood and slammed the table:
"This damned little Japanese is so ungrateful. Back then, the envoys to the Tang Dynasty came here like dogs to learn Chinese medicine. Now that they have found another father, they turn around and bite us. They are such a piece of shit."

Old Master Yao Qiming repeatedly confirmed: "Has Japan really completely given up on Chinese medicine? There are no Chinese medicine hospitals anymore?"

Mr. Shi nodded:

"They no longer support TCM at the national level, schools have cancelled TCM courses, and TCM doctors are no longer considered official doctors. They are on the same level as chefs. They regard our TCM as a health product."

Lin Sanqi thought, old men, don't be fooled, this easy life is misleading.

Don't look at what they say, look at what they do. (End of this chapter)
