Diqin Designer

Chapter 211 How many people need to be dissected?

Li Nian said: "I am telling you all this today because I hope that when you practice medicine in the future, you will know the cause of the disease and why it happens. Only by knowing the cause of the disease can you find a cure."

"There are many diseases in the world, some have not yet been discovered, and some have been discovered but have no cure. So I hope you will observe and study them more, analyze the principles behind them, and make medical technology progress and advance, so that everyone in our Great Qin will be healthy and not troubled by diseases."

After hearing what Li Nian said, a doctor said: "Although you say you are not a doctor, your heart to save the world and heal people is better than ours."

The other doctors also nodded in agreement.

Seeing these doctors about to salute him again, Li Nian hurriedly said, "You don't have to do that. This is not Li's work. Li was just lucky enough to have inherited some knowledge from others. If you really want to consult a doctor, then this is absolutely not possible."

After saying these two sentences to the doctors, Li Nian added: "No matter what kind of illness or pain it is, it is all caused by our body. It is our body that is hot, fainting, and aching. Therefore, practicing medicine requires understanding our body. Do you agree?"

Nonsense, patients, patients, the sick are people, and the doctors treat sick people. If the disease does not occur in people, do they still need doctors to treat them?
But it is obvious that this person wants to understand the human body. But how much does he know about the human body?

The doctors couldn't help but feel curious and wanted to know how deep Li Nian's understanding of the human body was and what profound theories he could express.

Seeing the doctors nod, Li Nian continued, "You have been practicing medicine for many years, so you understand the human body. But what I am about to say may be a little different from what you know, so please follow me."

The doctors followed Li Nian to the other side of the hall and saw several wooden frames there, each with a board on it.

There were strange things called "paper" pasted on the boards. Some of the papers had human bodies drawn on them, and some had what looked like internal organs drawn on them...

Guo Dian, who had been serving by the side, handed Li Nian a thin wooden stick at the right time.

Li Nian held the wooden stick in his hand and pointed at a picture that should be a male body.

"This is what I know about the structure of the male body. These are the internal organs. The human body is a very sophisticated structure. We can live, run, jump, and think because of the exquisite coordination of various tissues and organs."

"So when they have problems, we get sick. Now, I will give you a general description of how they work in our bodies and keep us alive."

"The first is the heart. The heart and brain are both vital to the human body. Often, once they are damaged, even the most skilled doctors cannot save the patient."

"The brain is the center of our souls. It is where we think and what we want to do. So why is the heart so important?"

No one answered, so Li Nian asked himself and answered himself: "Because it is the blood supply center of our body."

"If we compare the human body to a carriage, then the heart is the horse pulling the carriage. If there is something wrong with the horse, the carriage will not run well."

Li Nian began to explain to this group of Qin Dynasty doctors the structure of the heart and how the heart promotes blood circulation in the human body.

Many doctors also know the importance of the heart and roughly how the heart works in the human body, but they have not explained it as clearly as Li Nian did.

Li Nian's words brought them a lot of inspiration, and some questions that were originally puzzling now had answers.

The doctors sighed secretly. They didn't know as much about the human body as this young master did. But this young master knew the human body so well...

If these were not what he learned but what he observed personally, how many people would he have to dissect to know it so clearly?

Even if this young man did not kill anyone himself, but only dissected the bodies after they died, he would have dissected quite a lot of bodies.

Li Nian noticed that the way the doctors looked at him had changed slightly. There was admiration but also an inexplicable fear.

After a second thought, he guessed what these doctors were thinking. Maybe he had described it in too much detail, and they thought he had dissected many corpses. Li Nian was too lazy to explain and continued to talk about other organs and tissues in the human body.

In fact, although he had never performed an autopsy himself, he had people dissect a few corpses in order to tell these doctors about the human body knowledge of later generations. After observing them, he confirmed that the bodies of people in this world were no different from those in the original world.

After Li Nian finished speaking, all the doctors felt that they had benefited a lot. It turned out that this is how the internal organs work in the human body. The disease that they didn't know much about before might be a problem with the liver. This is actually how women's menstruation works...

Seeing that Li Nian wanted to continue talking, Guo Dian reminded him, "Sir, it's already noon. The meal is ready. Do you want to eat?"

Li Nian looked outside the hall. Although he couldn't see the sun, he saw some sunlight coming in from outside. He knew that the sun must be high at this moment, so he said, "Let's eat first. As the saying goes, 'Only when you are full can you have the strength to work', and 'Man is iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry.'"

The doctors were wondering where this saying came from.

The eunuchs, alchemists, and guards in the palace were no longer surprised by this. The young master was a scholar, and occasionally he would say something that they had never heard of before, but which made a lot of sense when they thought about it carefully.

Li Nian looked at the doctors and asked Guo Dian, "Have you prepared food for everyone?"

Guo Dian said: "My lord, everything is ready!"

Li Nian nodded, then looked at the doctors and said with a smile, "Everyone, please have a meal here first, and continue to listen to my lecture in the afternoon."

The doctors did not refuse and all bowed to Li Nian: "Thank you for the food, young master!"

Li Nian led the doctors to another palace where tables and chairs were already prepared.

After everyone was seated, the food began to be served. The meals were served separately, with each person having three dishes, one soup, and a bowl of staple food.

Li Nian said: "If you don't have enough, you can have more!"

The doctors hurriedly shook their heads. They usually only ate two meals a day and did not eat at noon, so this was completely an extra meal.

Li Nian didn't have the habit of "not talking while eating or sleeping". While eating, he said to the doctors, "This time I advise His Majesty to send you to Xianyang. There are a few things you need to do."

Seeing that the doctors stopped eating and listened to him carefully, Li Nian said, "Everyone, please eat and talk while you eat."

"The first is to tell you some knowledge related to medicine, that is, the tiny things and human body structure that I talked about; the second is to give you some medical prescriptions to verify; the third is that your majesty wants to build a medical school, and I need your help; the fourth is that I need you to guarantee some things for me so that they can be spread throughout the world; the fifth is that I want to select a group of people from among you to go abroad."

"I won't go into details about the first and second reasons. The third reason is that there are many people in the world but few doctors. Many people are sick but have no doctors to treat them. Your Majesty thought about this and thought of building a medical school to train more doctors so that everyone in the Qin Dynasty can get medical treatment when they are sick."

Hearing this, a doctor stood up excitedly: "Your Majesty is so considerate of the people, you are truly a holy king! Your Majesty is wise!"

The doctor knelt down, and the other doctors stood up and shouted with him: "Your Majesty is wise!"

It happened that Ying Zheng had just finished lunch at this time. Knowing that Li Nian was meeting with doctors from various places today, he took the opportunity to take a walk over to take a look while digesting his food.

Before he arrived, he heard someone shouting "Your Majesty is wise!" Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Li Nian must have said something good about him, making the doctor think he was wise.

Ying Zheng's mood suddenly became complicated. There were some things that he had never thought of, and he had no intention of doing them, but they were pinned on him by that kid Li Nian, which led to his current reputation.

After looking in the direction of Liuying Palace, Ying Zheng turned and left.
