The story of Bian Que’s medical skills
In the Spring and Autumn Period, ever since the story of Bian Que knowing his illness after seeing Duke Huan spread, his medical name has spread throughout the world. One day, King Wen of Wei asked Bian Que: "Your three brothers are all practicing medicine and are all good at medicine, but who has the best medical skills?"
Bian Que replied: "Eldest brother The best, the middle brother is the second best, and I am the worst among the three brothers." King Wen asked in surprise: "Then why are you the most famous among the three brothers in your family?"
Bian Que replied: "My eldest brother treats diseases before they occur, because most people don't know that he can detect the disease before it occurs and detect the root cause of the disease in time. Because of the elimination, Xuande was accumulated silently, so his medical skills were unknown to others, and his reputation could not be spread. Only people in our family knew about his skills.
My middle brother’s medical skills and treatment are best at treating patients at the beginning of their illness and eliminating the disease before it causes trouble. Most people think that he can only treat minor ailments. So. His reputation only spreads within a small area in his hometown.
However, most of the disease cases I treat are when the patient's condition is serious. Most people see me inserting needles or inserting needles into the patient's meridians. Bloodletting, applying medicine to the skin or performing surgery can be witnessed, so everyone thinks that my medical skills are very good, and my reputation has spread throughout the country.
The boatman sighed and said: In Chinese tradition. The profoundness of medicine and the judgment of Jingwei in Taoist medicine are vividly reflected on the paper. Will Xinglin practitioners and readers of this article understand the legend of Bian Que?
< p>Bian Que, whose original name was Qin Yue, was smart, diligent and fond of medicine when he was young. By chance, he met Sang Jun, a famous folk doctor at that time, learned medical skills, treated diseases for the people, and left many magical legends. Legend.Since Bian Que got acquainted with Chang Sangjun, he has worked day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep, to systematically summarize and analyze the experience and methods of his medical master, and constantly improve his medical skills and diagnostic ability, and improve his ability in the treatment of diseases. There has been progress in diagnosis.
One day, Chang Sangjun went out to practice medicine, and Bian Que was alone at home. He was reading medical books at his desk when he suddenly heard a groan from outside the door. Startled, he hurried out and saw two young men supporting an old lady walking towards the house. The old lady frowned and covered her chest with her hands. He said very urgently: "Sir, my old mother has unbearable abdominal pain and can't eat or drink. Please sir, please give her some treatment." "Bian Que walked over and helped the old lady sit on the wooden chair waiting for diagnosis. He looked at the sun and estimated that the teacher would not come back for a while. After hesitating for a moment, he asked the old lady to stretch out her hand and patiently check her pulse. Said: "The old man's illness is spleen and stomach discomfort and epigastric pain. Let's do this. After I write a prescription, I'll cook it for the old lady and drink it immediately after I get back. I think her illness will slowly get better. "
The two young men showed a grateful smile on their faces: "Then my mother's illness depends on this gentleman. ”
Bian Que asked one of the young men to help the old lady go home and rest in bed for a while. At the same time, he made a prescription with ink, laid out paper to wrap the medicine, and then asked the young man to rush home immediately and decoct the old lady in water. .
The young man rushed home in a hurry with the medicine. When he reached the entrance of the village, he met a group of guys who were used to fighting. Now they saw the young man carrying a drum. Nang Nang's bag came over, thinking that there must be something delicious inside. The guys swarmed around the young man and insisted on letting him open the paper bag to see what was going on. The young man hurriedly explained: "Don't. Just kidding, the stuffing inside is all filled with herbs, nothing interesting to look at. The guys laughed and said, "Haha, you are just being cunning and deceiving. You caught some medicine for no reason. Please open the bag and show it to us." "
The more the young man explained, the more unbelieving the guys were. One young man took advantage of him and a hungry tiger pounced on him. He didn't grab the medicine pack, but all the herbs were scratched and scattered on the thick sawdust. Everyone was stunned for a moment, scratching the backs of their heads. The young man said angrily: "I said there was medicine in it, and you didn't believe it. You should believe it this time." "As he spoke, he took the medicine from the sawdust into his pocket.
But he said that not long after the young man left, Chang Sangjun came back from practicing medicine. Bian Que hurriedly said: "Teacher, you were not here just now. The student rashly diagnosed a disease, and the student is now apologizing. "
Speaking, Bian Que clasped his fists to apologize.
Chang Sangjun brushed his beard and said with a smile: "Ah, don't be like this. It is human nature to save lives and heal the wounded. It is really commendable for students to do this. , I am only happy to be a teacher. Yue people, tell me the patient's condition quickly. "
Bian Que immediately told Chang Sangjun the patient's symptoms, pulse and his own diagnosis.
Chang Sangjun asked: "Where is the prescription?"< /p>
Bian Que took the prescription and said, "Teacher, please take a look. "
Chang Sangjun read the prescription from beginning to end, frowned and said, "Yueren, the dozen or so herbs in your prescription are suitable for the symptoms, but there is something missing here. Just blindly. "
"Which flavor?" Bian Que asked in surprise.
"Sandalwood?"
"Yes, this medicine has the effect of regulating qi and removing stasis. As you just mentioned, the patient actually has qi stasis in the spleen and stomach, and the liver qi is not relaxed and the qi is not flowing. Although the medicine used in your prescription is analgesic and stasis-removing, it is difficult to cure the patient without sandalwood as the first medicine." After hearing this, Bian Que felt very regretful. He rubbed his hands anxiously and said, "Teacher, what should we do?"
Chang Sangjun raised his head and glanced at Bian Que: "What do you think?"
"Okay, I'll send the medicine right away."
After that, Bian Que put on his clothes and brought some packaged sandalwood and other auxiliary medicines. Just as he was about to go out, two people walked in. Come, Bian Que took a closer look, oh! Aren't these the two people who helped the old lady to see the doctor just now? Bian Que understood that they must have come here to get the medicine because his mother had not recovered from taking medicine. He felt very sad in his heart. disturbed. However, seeing the two young men smiling and looking grateful, Bian Que asked in surprise: "How is the old lady's condition now?"
The two young men held up their hands and smiled. : "Thanks to sir's diagnosis and treatment, my mother's illness was cured by taking medicine when she returned home, and her body recovered as before. We are here to thank you."
"This..." Bian Que cast suspicious eyes on the teacher.
Chang Sangjun stepped forward and said with a smile: "Two young brothers, please sit down. What did you just say?"
The two young men replied excitedly: "This is Mr. My mother’s illness was cured.”
“Then, did you add any other medicine to it?”
The two young men looked at it in confusion. Chang Sangjun said: "No, absolutely not."
"Then, was the medicine you took away opened in the middle?"
"This..."
p>After being stunned for a moment, one of the young men told Chang Sangjun that he was taking medicine home and met a tree felling man at the intersection who tore the medicine package.
Chang Sangjun asked: "What kind of tree is that?"
"Sandalwood tree."
Bian Que was shocked after hearing this and suddenly realized. He looked at the teacher with admiration and stretched out his thumb.
Chang Sangjun smiled: "That's right, there are such strange things in the world. It seems that your mother is very lucky." He joked to the two young men: "Your mother's illness is all thanks to those naughty guys. Otherwise, if I had bothered you to make another trip, the old lady would have suffered from the disease to this day."
Bian Que felt ashamed. The ground flushed and lowered his head.
Chang Sangjun warned the two young men: "After returning home, you should also pay attention to the elderly's daily diet. Do not eat too hard, too hot, or too much. In addition, you must not make the old lady angry or become depressed. When illness occurs, the elderly suffer, and the younger generation suffers, which will delay important events." This is exactly what happened:
It was a joke that shouldn't be made
But it made Bian Que famous
p>Bian Que started practicing medicine, but it was not so smooth. According to legend, there was a saying at that time: "Treat one, one will die, cure ten, and ten will die." Although this is a rumor, it also reveals a problem, that is: this is how things are done, and the same is true for practicing medicine. It will not work without rich practical experience.
Later, through his dedicated efforts and the patient guidance of the famous doctor Sang Jun, Bian Que finally made greater progress in his medical skills and gained a bit of fame.
However, when an impression occupies people's minds, it is often difficult to change it. At that time, many people still had doubts about Bian Que's medical skills.
One day at noon, Bian Que came home from practicing medicine. He heard that a fellow villager was building a house. Bian Que, a sincere and kind-hearted man, changed his clothes, took a straw hat and went to help. At this time, a young man standing on the scaffolding saw Bian Que coming from a distance, and said to the people on the scaffolding: "When the Yue people come, I will jump down and pretend to be dead. Take a look at his body." Is the medical skill real or fake?" Everyone nodded in unison.
While he was talking, Bian Que had already come closer. Just as he was about to say hello to everyone, he saw a person rushing down from the scaffolding. The person who fell rolled a few times on the ground and then lay down. It was motionless there.
Bian Que hurriedly walked over, and everyone cheered and surrounded him. Bian Que looked at the young man's face and whispered: "Oh! He is dead." As soon as he finished speaking, everyone burst out laughing.
Bian Que said puzzledly: "This boy must have just had lunch. His stomach is full of food. His stomach has burst after falling from such a high scaffolding."
People were still laughing. An older man turned the young man over doubtfully, only to find that the young man had indeed fallen to his death. When people told Bian Que the whole story, Bian Que sighed repeatedly: "Oh! How sad! How sad! It's really a wind in the ground. How can I make such a joke?"
From then on! , Bian Que became famous and admired by others.
During the Warring States Period, there were frequent famines and plagues in Henan, and the people were in dire straits. Bian Que traveled to the towns and countryside of Henan all year round to practice medicine.
This year, Bian Que's frail and elderly mother became ill due to overwork. She was sick for many days, bedridden, did not want to eat, and was gradually losing weight. Bian Que's brother was very anxious and depressed as he saw his mother getting worse every day.
On this day, he suddenly thought of his younger brother Bian Que. People said that he had superb medical skills and praised him for his ability to bring the dead back to life. Why not go find him? Fortunately, Bian Que asked his fellow villagers to bring him here some time ago. After passing some silver, I found out that he was in the area of ??Luoyang (now Luoyang, Henan). After making up his mind, my brother finally convinced his mother, so he chose an auspicious day and set off on the road carrying his mother.
The mother and son traveled through mountains and rivers, slept in the open air, and went through all kinds of hardships to reach Luoyang. Unexpectedly, after seeing his mother's illness, Bian Que shook his head, sighed, called his brother aside, and said secretly: "Brother, my mother's illness is incurable. It will take as little as ten days, or as long as a hundred days." She will definitely die at the end of her life. You have come a long way, rest for two days and then go back, so as not to bury your mother's body in a foreign land..." After hearing this, my brother was very sad and silently nodded. nod. Three days later, he carried his mother on his back and embarked on his return journey.
On this day, the mother and son came to a deserted wilderness with no village in front of them and no store in the back. My mother suddenly felt smoke coming from her throat and was unbearably thirsty. Her condition became more critical. Unfortunately, the water she brought with her had already been drained. My brother had no choice but to put her under a big tree by the roadside and carry the water jug ??around. Find water. Unexpectedly, after running around for a long time, I couldn't find even a drop of water. Just as he was walking back feebly, he suddenly found a human skull in the shape of a water gourd in a cemetery not far from the roadside. The water accumulated in the bone gourd due to rain shone in the sun. Bian Que's brother was so happy that he had found a treasure. He ran forward to take a look, but he couldn't help but gasped. It turned out that there were two small snakes in this bone gourd. The little white snake that had just shed its skin was playing in the water. The water was turbid and unclear, with pieces of snake skin floating on the surface. A fishy smell could be smelled from a distance, let alone Drinking it, smelling it, and looking at it make you sick.
Now, my brother is really worried: What should I do? My mother is seriously ill and dying. At this point, if she can drink water, she can live for a few more hours. Without water, she might die today. Isn't it a man-made sin to die of thirst in this wilderness? Thinking of this, he couldn't care anymore. He squatted down and gently picked out the two small white snakes with his hands, and then carefully poured the water into the jar. , brought it back. When we came to the big tree, our mother was already dying. He gently woke his mother and handed her the water.
The mother raised her eyelids feebly. When she saw her son bringing water, she desperately picked up the jug and drank it all. Strangely enough, as soon as Bian Que's mother drank the water, she felt much lighter all over. After a while, she actually stood up holding on to the tree trunk. She was very happy and said with a smile: "Son! This little water saved my mother's life. She feels much better now. Come on, try holding me up first. I want to walk by myself." The brother saw that his mother was acting uncharacteristically. , I couldn't help but feel so happy to be able to stand up and walk on my own. So, he helped his mother and continued walking forward.
A few days later, the mother and son came to a village and happened to hear a family's hens that had just finished laying eggs and were screaming "Cuckoo, Cuckoo". The mother said to herself: "Hey, I haven't eaten eggs in how many days. I wonder if I can eat another egg before I die?" After hearing this, the son felt very uncomfortable. He knew that when his mother was at home, He always likes to drink two eggs every now and then, but now that he is living in a foreign country, where can he find it? With no choice but to do so, he still mustered up the courage and decided to bite the bullet and give it a try. So, he helped his mother and knocked on the door of the family.
The person who opened the door was an old lady over fifty years old. The old lady was holding a hot egg in her hand. The egg looked so big that it was as big as a duck egg. Bian Que's brother bowed deeply and said hello, saying that his elderly and critically ill mother wanted to eat an egg and asked for charity. The aunt hesitated for a moment, and just as she was about to speak, a girl in the room spoke to her through the window: "Mom, just give it to him. He's so pitiful. It's our duty to help others in danger! Besides, isn't he just a man? Egg, it's just a phoenix egg, it's not as important as saving lives!" "Yes, yes, my daughter is absolutely right. Sir, to tell you the truth, my black hen usually lays very small eggs. , today this egg is surprisingly big, it should be your mother’s blessing!” After saying that, the old lady happily handed the egg to him, and the mother and son thanked her and happily left the village holding the egg.
When they arrived at a crossing near the village, the mother and son hurriedly opened the eggs and poured them into bowls. Hey! No wonder the egg is so big, it turns out to be a double yolk egg. The mother drank the eggs, and soon her face turned from pale to rosy. Then, my whole body seemed to have gained a lot of strength, and I was able to walk on my own without the help of my son.
The mother and son were overjoyed, and they continued on their way talking and laughing. However, not long after, suddenly, strong winds blew up, and a dark cloud floated overhead. Then, a thunder exploded, and in an instant, it began to rain heavily. The mother and son were unable to dodge, and they were drenched.
It is no coincidence that strange things happened together on this day. This rainstorm came and stopped quickly. As soon as the storm passed, the sun came out, and it was as if the rain was shining across the sky. The mother and son had just been exposed to the heavy rain, and now they were exposed to the warm sun, not to mention how comfortable and comfortable they felt. In particular, my mother's mind is refreshed, and her arms and legs are getting stronger and stronger. To put it bluntly, she is even better than she was before she was sick.
A few days passed since then, and the mother and son returned to their hometown in Minzhou. After Bian Que's brother settled his mother, he returned to Luoyang alone to settle the account with Bian Que.
As soon as he saw Bian Que, his brother became very angry: "Bian Que, Bian Que, you are so heartless! It is not easy for your mother to give birth to you! But you, absolutely nothing You shouldn't just die without saving her." After hearing this, Bian Que thought that his mother was dead and his brother was too sad. He didn't care about his excessive words. He sighed and said, "Brother, please don't be angry. You are filial to your mother. , I admire her very much. However, my mother is suffering from an incurable disease. It is not that I can’t help but that I am helpless!” Then, Bian Que stepped forward and took his brother’s hand, and persuaded her affectionately. Said: "Since my mother is now in peace, I should be more relaxed as a brother and don't be overly sad. There is a saying that death is like a lamp going out!..."
"Shut up. !'' When Bian Que's brother heard this, he could no longer suppress his anger.
"You have been practicing medicine for many years. How can you be considered a 'miraculous doctor'? How is my mother's disease an incurable disease?" ', it's obvious that you have ulterior motives and are afraid of being entrusted. To tell you the truth, my mother recovered from her illness without treatment and is now as good as ever. "
When Bian Que heard this, he was dubious. He estimated that he might have met an expert in the medical field and was saved along the way, so he changed his mind and explained: "Actually, my mother's disease is not incurable, it's just my brother's. My ability is far beyond my ability. It’s all my fault that I didn’t explain it clearly at the time. However, to say the least, even if I prescribed the medicine at that time, it would be in vain - not only you and me, but even living gods would not be able to get all of these medicines!"
"Why is it so difficult to get all of them? , Do you have to go to heaven and earth?"
"That's not necessary. But this prescription requires both God-given and man-made interaction. They are indispensable. It doesn’t cost much, but..."
"Oh! You don’t want to be wordy, I will. Want to see what kind of prescription you want to prescribe?"
"Okay!" Bian Que shook his head helplessly, reached for the brush on the desk, and wrote the following prescription:
Human Bone Sky brings rain and dew, and Erlong takes off his clothes and takes a bath in the soup.
The black chicken gives birth to a double-yolked egg, exposed to the heavy rain and basking in the sun.
After prescribing the medicine, he handed it to his brother. The elder brother took it and saw that it matched the situation he encountered on the way home. It was only then that he realized that he had wrongly blamed his younger brother. In addition to treatment, psychotherapy and exercise therapy are also unique features of Bian Que's medical treatment.
One day, a rich man came to Bian Que and said that he was seriously ill and felt depressed and did not want to sleep. , Over the past few days, his body was getting thinner and it was difficult to get tea. He tried several gentlemen but failed. Bian Que looked at the rich man in front of him. He was really sallow and thin, looking sick. He checked the rich man's pulse and said. : "There is only one way to cure your disease, but I don't know if you are willing to cure it yourself. "
The rich man was overjoyed after hearing this: "Ah! Please ask the miracle doctor to tell you what method to use. Of course I am willing to cure it." "
Bian Que said: "Go to the market and buy a stone one foot square, and move it from the east wall to the west wall in your courtyard every day, and then move it from the west wall to the east wall. , within two months, your condition will improve. "
After hearing this, the rich man frowned. After living for such a long time, he had only heard that famous doctors in the world had medicine to cure diseases, but he had never heard of the principle of lifting stones to cure diseases. He remembered Bian Que once said "six incurable diseases" and wondered if Bian Que was deliberately teasing him, but then he thought that Bian Que was a famous miracle doctor and had no choice but to follow his method.
From then on, people began to believe that Bian Que was a famous miracle doctor. I often see the rich man moving around the yard, panting and sweating from exhaustion. The rich man is so focused on curing his illness that he forgets to collect rent, forget to collect taxes, and doesn’t think about anything else. , regardless of anything, after two months, the rich man was in high spirits and his body gradually recovered. He went to Bian Que and asked: "How can I cure my disease by moving a stone?"
Bian Que. The magpie smiled and said: "The disease you have is called mental overwork (neurasthenia). You spend every day thinking about how to make a fortune or make a fortune. If you don't exercise or work, over time, you will become exhausted." It is inevitable that the heart will be weak and the body will be weak, and the heart will be palpitating and sleepless. I ask you to move rocks because I want you to properly coordinate your mental and physical strength. Physical exercise is the foundation of life. I hope you will stop thinking about how to make a fortune in the future. "
Another time, Bian Que was checking prescriptions in the pharmacy. A middle-aged man in his thirties walked in from the door. When he saw Bian Que, he immediately lifted his clothes and knelt down. Bian Que said He walked over and helped the middle-aged man up, and asked eagerly: "Is someone in the family sick?"
The middle-aged man blushed, took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Bian Que. , Bian Que shook it open and saw that it was a few lines of weak and elegant poetry.
Bian Que softly chanted:
I have been filled with many emotions during my five years with you. Needless to say, I loved you so much. ,
Since the husband was drunk, the slave family has been tortured
With tears in his eyes, he is worried that his home will be ruined, and the journey will never happen again.
Who is the poor daughter? Guan, after the slave died, it was difficult to close his eyes.
After reciting this poem, Bian Que looked up at the middle-aged man in front of him. The middle-aged man told Bian Que about the family affairs with tears.
It turns out that this poem was written by the middle-aged man’s wife. They had been married for five years, and they were very affectionate at first. They lived a sweet life, and the wife was as beautiful as a flower, and not long after they got married. He was blessed with another girl, who liked him even more.
But later on, the middle-aged man became addicted to wine for some reason. Seeing that wine was like his life, he drank drunkenly, ruined all the furnishings in the house, and converted all his belongings into silver coins to drink. His virtuous wife would still touch him from time to time. A scolding. Although his wife tried to persuade him many times, he turned a deaf ear. As time passed, my wife gradually became worried and became ill. After a few days, she became seriously ill and bedridden, dying.
On this day, his wife called him to the bed, took out a piece of paper from under the bed with trembling hands and handed it to him. The middle-aged man took it and read it again, and suddenly realized it. He was heartbroken, hugged his wife and cried bitterly. As he cried, he remembered the miracle doctor Bian Que who was rumored to have returned from the dead, so he hurried here.
After listening to the middle-aged man's story, Bian Que smiled slightly and said: "Brother, drinking is not a bad thing, but you must not overdose. Drinking too much will cause poisoning and harm the body. Use alcohol to provoke It's your fault to beat and scold your wife."
Bian Que's few words made the middle-aged man blush and feel ashamed.
"Sir, you are right. This is all my fault. As long as you can save my beloved wife's life, I am determined to start a new life."
As I said this, I knelt on the ground with a plop. The dignified man actually shed tears of sadness.
Bian Que saw that the middle-aged man was really moved. After thinking for a moment, he went over to help him up and said, "Brother, there is no need to be like this. Let me tell you, my sister-in-law's disease can be cured now, but It must be like this, like this..."
The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
So Bian Que bent over his desk and wrote the following lines of poetry:
The demon wife has been with me for five or six years, and we are in love with each other.
It’s all because of the lack of respect for the husband, and the beautiful home has been torn apart.
It’s too late to wake up from the nightmare, and living an ignoble life will become a joke.
If we die, why not die together and reunite in the underworld.
After Bian Que finished writing, he asked the middle-aged man to copy it and give it to his wife. When the middle-aged man left, Bian Que repeatedly warned him to act according to the plan.
To put it briefly, after the middle-aged man returned home, he gave those few poems to his wife.
After reading the poem, the wife looked at her tearful husband again, with a look of disappointment in her pale eyes, and then stared at him blankly.
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said: "Since you have reached this stage, we can't care much about this child, but there is nothing we can say to let her live under someone else's roof. Just throw the child away. Let's die together and spend this life together."
After saying that, the middle-aged man grabbed the child and threw it to the ground. His wife yelled and suddenly got up from the bed. For a moment, she felt a heat in her chest, and a mouthful of dirty blood spurted out.
The child was so frightened that he cried, and the middle-aged man also stepped forward to support his wife worriedly. At this moment, Bian Que walked in from outside the door. When he saw the dirty blood on the ground, he kept saying: "Zhong! Zhong!" Bian told the middle-aged man: "Your wife has been depressed for a long time, and this has led to It's a serious illness, just call it an emergency, and her illness will be cured soon." After saying that, Bian Que opened the emergency again and told the middle-aged man to take good care of his wife. Don't make her angry again. The middle-aged man agreed repeatedly and apologized to his wife in front of Bian Que, promising not to drink again and to start a new life.
The wife looked at her husband affectionately, with two lines of bitter tears falling from her eyes.
Sure enough, after taking the tonic, the woman gradually felt much more energetic. After a while, she left the bed and recovered.
Since then, the middle-aged man has also given up drinking, and the couple has remained as loving as ever, and rebuilt a happy home with hard-working hands.
Once, Bian Que passed a village on his way to practice medicine. At this time, bursts of crying came from the village. Bian Que learned from others that the deceased was a daughter-in-law who had been married for nearly a year. Just as he was about to continue on his way, he heard the crying getting closer and closer, and several middle-aged men came toward him carrying a coffin. Bian Que followed the sound and couldn't help being surprised. Several middle-aged men were carrying a thin coffin. He saw a few drops of dirty blood quietly flowing out of the coffin. Bian Que stepped forward to take a look at the blood, and quickly asked people to put down the coffin, and stopped the woman behind from crying.
Everyone looked at the doctor in front of them, feeling very surprised. Bian Que said: "There is a saying that only dead people can be put into coffins. Why do you people bury living people in such a fashion here?" Everyone looked at Bian Que in surprise, and then burst into laughter. They suspected that the doctor in front of them was a ten-year-old doctor. Eighty-nine percent of them are crazy.
As soon as people were about to lift up the coffin and move forward, Bian Que said eagerly: "Everyone, please put it down quickly. If I am not wrong, the person lying in the coffin is a pregnant woman. This pregnant woman was pregnant due to childbirth." She was in a coma for a long time due to difficult childbirth. This is called "suspended death" (shock)."
Everyone heard what the doctor said was clear-cut and logical, so they put down the coffin and followed Bian Que's instructions. He opened the coffin lid hesitantly. Bian Que took out the needle pack, massaged the little daughter-in-law's middle part for a while, and then inserted a needle into the Zhongwan point. The little daughter-in-law moved and her eyes slowly opened. Bian Que cooked for a while, and the woman sat up unexpectedly. People hurriedly helped the little daughter-in-law out of the coffin. In a short time, a baby boy fell to the ground.
One injection saved two lives, and everyone praised him in unison.
The woman's husband invited Bian Que home for a drink no matter what. He also took out some silver to reward Bian Que. Bian Que smiled and said: "It is the duty of a doctor to save someone in the face of death, that's all. I I have to keep on my way."
Another time, Bian Que went out to practice medicine. Halfway through, it was getting dark. He was about to stay in an inn. Just as Bian Que was about to knock on the door, a woman happened to come in. A man walked out of the door carrying a basin of sewage, and accidentally splashed it all over Bian Que.
The woman was very embarrassed when she saw that her guest had been splashed with semen all over her body. She apologized sheepishly and said, "Sir, this slave is blind. I'm really sorry. Please come into the store and change into clean clothes." "
Bian Que smiled, said "nothing", and followed the woman into the inn.
The owner of the inn was drinking tea in the room. When he saw Bian Que entering the room, he quickly stood up and gave up his seat.
When Bian Que saw the shopkeeper, he whispered: "No, your master is in danger of losing his life if he doesn't come out tonight."
When the woman heard this, she was very angry. "You bastard, didn't I just splash a few drops of dirty water on you? You shouldn't curse us like this." She pointed to the door with her hand: "Please find another shop." Bian Que did it again After some explanations, but still to no avail, seeing the owner getting angry, he had no choice but to turn around and walk out of the inn, staying in a small shop across the door.
Bian Que never closed his eyes after lying down, quietly listening to the movements in the inn opposite. At midnight, there was indeed a commotion in the inn opposite. Bian Que hurried over and saw the shopkeeper lying on the kang, rolling around and moaning.
When the woman saw Bian Que, she was so angry that she trembled all over. Bian Que explained: "Sister-in-law, please don't be angry. Your husband is suffering from stranguria. When I came here yesterday, I saw something was wrong with the look on his face."
The woman was still dubious. , but there is a bit of hope in the doubt. Bian Que said calmly: "It doesn't matter. Once I treat your husband, everything will be fine."
Bian Que began to massage and acupuncture the shop owner. Time passed slowly, and the pain in the shop owner's stomach gradually stopped. The couple was extremely grateful to Bian Que, but they always felt sorry for the kind-hearted doctor and asked him to leave his name no matter what. Bian Que had no choice but to tell them. When the shopkeeper heard that Bian Que had saved his life, he was so excited that he could hardly speak: "God... miracle doctor, medicine king... medicine king!"
Bian Que was almost speechless throughout his life. Dedicated to medical research and diagnosis and treatment, he used the four methods of looking, smelling, asking, and cutting (that is, looking at the color, listening to the sound, asking about the disease, and feeling the pulse) to diagnose diseases, and cured many rare and difficult diseases. , the "Four Diagnosis Methods" have been used by doctors in my country for more than 2,000 years and have become the traditional diagnostic method of traditional Chinese medicine. Later, the Qin imperial physician ordered Li Che to be jealous of Bian Que's talent and sent people to stab Bian Que to death in Dongfu Daopo, Tangyin County (now Fudao Village, Fudao Commune, Tangyin County, Henan Province). When the people of Zhengzhou heard this, they were filled with indignation. They went to bring Bian Que's body back and buried it five miles north of Zhengzhou City. Later, in order to commemorate him, people from the Yuan Dynasty built a Yaowang Temple here. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, it is said that Wei Zhongxian walked to Beijing to become a eunuch. At that time, he fell ill and slept in the tomb behind Bian Que Temple. In his sleep, he saw Bian Que treating him. After Wei Zhongxian woke up, he recovered from his illness. In order to repay Yaowang's kindness, Wei Zhongxian petitioned the emperor to rebuild a majestic Yaowang Temple. Yaowang Temple has yellow tiles and red walls, colorful statues in the corridors, double eaves flying steeply, and is magnificent. In the Yaowang Temple, Bian Que is in the middle, and in the side halls on both sides are the statues of the ten famous doctors. At that time, Yaowang Temple was famous all over the world and has been prosperous for a long time. Every year on April 15th, people from all over the world came to the temple to make wishes and drop incense. According to legend, there is a magpie lump behind the Yaowang Temple. As long as you make a wish and let the incense drop, you can dig out some brown pills from the lump in the Yaowang Temple. If the pills are swallowed, all diseases will be cured. Although this is a way for the monks in the temple to deceive the people, it also gives a glimpse of how much people respect Bian Que, the King of Medicine.
Due to the excessive incense, Yaowang Temple was burned several times. By the Republic of China, the temple was no longer so neat. According to legend, the old mother of Han Fuju, a great warlord in Shandong, was seriously ill and suffered from unbearable headaches. All the doctors in Shandong tried to do nothing but could not cure her. One day, Han Fuju's old mother had a dream. In her dream, she saw an old man carrying a thrush cage floating in front of her. Without saying a word, the old man released the thrush, and the thrush flew twice around the room. It bit her on the temple, and after a while, the thrush came out with a worm. When Han Fuju's old mother woke up, her mind was clear and she regained her health. Han Fuju listened to his mother recalling the dream, and the more she talked about it, the more he looked like Bian Que in Yaowang Temple. So a lot of construction work was carried out, the Yaowang Temple was renovated and repainted, and the Yaowang Temple was renamed "Bian Que Temple".
