Chapter 389 Sister Nan talks about ancient medical skills
Mr. Zhu quickly prepared the meal.
Waves of aroma of vegetables wafted out from the kitchen.
Zhu Qingqing and Gu Nan helped by setting up the dishes and chopsticks, while the old man brought the five dishes and one soup to the dining table.
"Nan Yi, these dishes are all my specialty. Please try them quickly to see if they suit your taste."
There are three meat and two vegetarian dishes on the table, plus a lotus root and pork ribs soup, which looks very rich.
"It looks delicious." Gu Nan praised.
Mr. Zhu smiled and said: "Don't be polite. You and Qingqing are classmates. From now on, if you have time, you can come to our house to play more. Come on, try this braised pork. I stewed it on a slow fire in the afternoon. It's full."
It’s been almost four hours.”
Gu Nan gently held both sides of the bowl with polite hands, but the bottom of the bowl did not leave the table. After catching the piece of braised pork handed over by Mr. Zhu, he quickly thanked her.
"Thank you, Grandpa Zhu."
Mr. Zhu took in all these behaviors of Gu Nanyi and admired in his heart. This little girl was as old as Qingqing, but her words and deeds revealed her noble upbringing. She really didn't look like a child that could be raised by an ordinary family.
Zhu Qingqing picked up an empty bowl, filled a bowl of pork rib soup, and placed it in front of Gu Nan.
"My grandpa's lotus root and pork ribs soup is delicious. You will definitely like it."
Gu Nan glanced at Zhu Qingqing, who straightened up a little embarrassedly and picked up the chopsticks to eat the food in his bowl.
after meal
As soon as Gu Nan took the initiative to help collect the dishes and chopsticks, Mr. Zhu originally wanted to stop him, but Gu Nan didn't give him a chance, and Zhu Qingqing followed him into the kitchen.
The two little girls divided their work and cooperated. Mr. Zhu looked at them with a smile and did not stop them.
"Nan Yi, do you like tea? I just got a can of good tea here, come over and try it." Mr. Zhu was sitting at the tea table, with tea boiling in the tea stove.
He picked up the teapot and poured a cup each for Gu Nanyi and Zhu Qingqing.
Gu Nan picked up the tea cup in front of him, brought it to his mouth and took a sip.
"Junshan Silver Needle."
Mr. Zhu's hand holding the teapot froze slightly, astonished.
"Do you know how to taste tea?"
Gu Nan took another sip of tea: "It's not a professional, but I once had a friend who was proficient in tea ceremony. I've been with him for a long time, and I've learned a little bit about it."
She once met the righteous Bo Yuntian, a chivalrous and courageous knight, and she also met the unruly and talented literati through literary friends. Especially, she traveled all over China with Wang Chongwen. Under his influence, she did not want to understand
All difficult.
"Haha, being able to tell what kind of tea it is just by taking a sip of it is nothing new. Nanyi, how do you know so many things at such a young age? It's surprising enough that you are proficient in Chinese and Western medicine, and today I learned a lot about it.
As for your other skill, I think nothing in this world can beat you." Mr. Zhu praised heartily.
Zhu Qingqing sat next to Gu Nanyi, picked up a cup of tea, and imitated Gu Nanyi's example and took a sip.
After tasting it carefully with the tip of your tongue, you can tell there is nothing more than tea.
"Why can't I tell a big difference? Doesn't tea always have this bitter taste? I think milk tea tastes better."
I really don’t know why the elderly love drinking tea.
Mr. Zhu chuckled and said to Zhu Qingqing: "If you don't have enough cultural background, you won't be able to taste the difference between tea and tea. Play with Nan Yi more in the future, and you will learn a lot."
Zhu Qingqing didn't say anything, because she agreed with her grandfather's words.
She now has a new understanding of Gu Nanyi. The more she gets to know this girl, the more she can feel that she is different.
It seemed that all difficulties became easy in front of her.
After chatting for a few words, Mr. Zhu cut into today’s topic.
He stood up and took out an ancient book and a black leather notebook from the bookcase, walked back to the tea table, sat down, and looked at Gu Nan.
"Nan Yi, I heard Director Li say that you translated this ancient book and notes?"
Gu Nan glanced at the ancient medical book and nodded.
Zhu Qingqing's face was full of surprise. The handwritten medical book that grandpa has treasured recently was actually written by Gu Nanyi?
She had read the contents of the medical book, which contained some strange words, diagrams of the human body, and hand-drawn drawings of hundreds of Chinese herbal medicines. The words looked very mysterious and ancient. Grandpa said that even experts who studied ancient words had never seen them before.
How do you know Gu Nanyi?
A flash of joy flashed in Mr. Zhu's eyes.
"I have been painstakingly studying your handwritten notebook for a while. Some of the contents in it are somewhat related to records in ancient books, but I have never heard of most of the prescriptions, acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbal medicines. Look at this paragraph, in this book
A kind of Yin and Yang Nine Needles is recorded. The nine needles mentioned above have their own functions, lengths and sizes, and they have their own uses. If they are not used for their purposes, the disease cannot be moved. This is the purpose of the Yin and Yang Nine Needles, but the above mentioned nine needles have their own effects.
Where are the nine needle points mentioned?"
Mr. Zhu held up the notebook and handed it to Gu Nanyi with a serious look on his face.
During this time, Mr. Zhu was deeply immersed in this book and couldn't extricate himself. It was like opening the door to an unknown world, making him obsessed and distressed.
I think he has been practicing medicine for most of his life and thinks he is quite proficient in Chinese medicine.
But after the appearance of this book, the self-confidence of the descendant of his medical family was completely flattened.
The content recorded in this book is not much. The first part is mainly about Chinese herbal medicine. The middle part is about various strange human acupuncture points painted. Most of these acupuncture points have a lot of origins with those on the current acupoint maps. This is his
It’s hard to understand. The next chapter contains dozens of prescriptions and several acupuncture treatments.
What made him feel crushed was that these contents rarely corresponded to the medicine he had learned.
"I also checked relevant information, and there is indeed an introduction to the Yin-Yang Nine Acupuncture in an ancient medical book. The book only says that the Yin-Yang Nine Acupuncture is an ancient acupuncture method that has been lost for a long time."
As soon as Gu Nan saw Mr. Zhu's confusion, she reached out and slowly opened the ancient book.
"Wuji generates Tai Chi, Tai Chi transforms yin and yang, yin and yang transforms the five elements, and the five elements generate nine acupuncture points. To understand this passage, you need to combine this map of human acupuncture points. This is an ancient acupuncture method. One of the nine needles
"Needles" are not silver needles. In ancient times, there were stones like jade that could be used as needles. This jade-like but not jade-like thing is called "烃". It is a rare mineral that is buried deep in the central country."
Mr. Zhu looked at Gu Nanyi with doubts on his face.
"Where is the central country? Have you seen this kind of "hard" stone?"
Gu Nan pondered for a moment, then his cold eyes fell on the book.
"The Central Kingdom is within the axis of the earth, and the stone "烃" once came from there. However, because this stone has a powerful nuclear fusion ability, it was once mined in large quantities and is no longer found on the earth."
Zhu Qingqing's face was full of doubts: "It sounds so mysterious. What Wuji, Tai Chi, Yin and Yang you are talking about are similar to Taoism. The Taoist priests on TV often put such words on their lips, and there is that "stone"
, what kind of stone is this? How could the ancients know about nuclear fusion?"
