"This is tuberculosis," Zhou Hui said after checking.
"Can tuberculosis be cured?"
Zhou Hui replied respectfully: "Sir, it shouldn't be a big problem. The tuberculosis this gentleman suffered was caused by wind-heat invading the lungs. This is a syndrome of wind-heat invading the lungs. Therefore, the main treatment is pungent and cool to dispel the evil. It can be used to clear away heat and detoxify, treat it with Ma Xing, Shigan, Gan Decoction and Yinqiao Powder, and it will be effective. Moreover, this gentleman has a very good constitution, and his pulse is low but continuous. In addition, I have been to Miao when I was young. I have learned from the Miao people a special way to treat tuberculosis, so I used a combination of Han and Miao methods to treat tuberculosis. It was effective very quickly. The most fortunate thing is that it was not caused by internal knots of evil heat, otherwise it would have been difficult to treat. , I will prescribe a prescription and you will be fully recovered in about three days of taking the medicine."
After Zhou Hui finished speaking, he took out a hard pen and wrote down the prescription. The Miaoling medicinal materials Platycodon grandiflorum, Yiduoyun, Ten Great Merits, wild ginger leaves, ginkgo, etc. were used as the main medicines, and ephedra, almonds, licorice, gypsum, and silver flowers were used. Forsythia suspensa, Platycodon grandiflorum, mustard ear, fresh reed root, etc. are used as supplements, decoction in water and taken once in the morning and evening, three days as a course of treatment.
The big man in gray clothes took the prescription and thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou. Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
"It's just a small matter, no need to say thank you, friend," I smiled and said to Zhou Hui, "Mr. Zhou, can I buy these medicines?"
"There are very few pharmacies in Lin'an City. I will send people to deliver these two medicines. Others can be bought."
"Well, Xiaoqi, you go there again and buy all the other medicines on this prescription."
"Yes, sir,"
Tuberculosis is also known as pneumonia in later generations. The name of pneumonia comes from Western medicine. In ancient times, although tuberculosis was not a terminal disease, it was not easy to treat. The pathogens that cause pneumonia are very complex. When the body's immunity is weakened, such as a cold, People are prone to infection when they are tired, and the Miao people's prescriptions are unique in treating tuberculosis. However, due to the poor communication between Han and Miao, their methods were not popularized in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Zhou Hui then said to the big man in gray: "Brother, you know martial arts, right?"
The big man was stunned and said: "Yes, sir,"
"That's even better. You can help the patient recover by massaging the patient's Tanzhong, Zhongfu and Tiantu points every day."
The big man in gray clothes nodded, suddenly knelt down to me and said: "Thank you, Zhang. I have thanked you for your great kindness. Zhang has been stupid and clumsy since he was a child, and cannot express his gratitude. Your Majesty, please, please accept Zhang's kindness." , a bow,”
"Get up and talk. It turns out your name is Zhang Gui."
"That's right, sir, the one who is sick is Zhang, my eldest brother, his name is Zhang Shun,"
"Zhang Shun, Zhang Gui," I suddenly thought of the two folk heroes who appeared during the Battle of Xiangyang in the late Southern Song Dynasty. In the eighth year of Xianchun, Li Tingzhi, who was the ambassador of Jinghu in the Southern Song Dynasty at that time, sent Zhang Shun, the general manager, to take charge of Zhang Gui. Led the capital to rescue Xiangyang, the two men led a hundred boats, 3,000 soldiers and a large amount of supplies. After a month and hundreds of miles of fighting, they successfully arrived in Xiangyang when Xiangyang had been trapped for 5 years. They became the first person after Xiangyang was trapped. The only reinforcements from the Southern Song Dynasty arrived, and Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui died here successively. Xiangyang guard Lu Wenhuan felt the loyalty of his two brothers and built two temples to worship them.
Although there are not many records about Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui in history, it is undeniable that their heroic deeds greatly inspired the courage of the soldiers and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty to resist Mongolia. Later scholars who studied "Water Margin" believed that this Zhang Shun was Ranked 30th among the heroes of Liangshan, the prototype of the Tianhui star among the thirty-six Tiangang stars is called "Langli Baitiao" by the author in the book.
"Zhang Gui, tell me about you and your eldest brother. If you are indeed talented, I will recommend you to the army."
"Yes, Young Master," Zhang Guidao, "My two brothers are from Anji, Liang Zhejiang Road. They have been living at the northern foot of Tianmu Mountain. Our family makes a living by planting bamboo gardens. I have practiced martial arts with my father since I was a child. The eldest brother Then, he likes the art of war. He once worshiped an unknown old man as his teacher and learned how to platoon and form troops."
"Wait a minute," Yuan Ji suddenly interrupted, "There is a Xitiao River in Anji County at the northern foot of Tianmu Mountain. There are a large number of moso bamboos planted on both sides of it, and the most famous one is the Zhang family known as the 'Bamboo Garden Zhang'. Zhang Gui, you do you know,"
Zhang Gui said with a naive smile: "Of course I know, I know, that 'Zhuyuan Zhang' is my family's unique signature. After my father passed away, I became the 'Zhuyuan Zhang' of this generation. This gentleman "Don't you know my late father?"
"Your name is,"
"My late father Zhang Qing,"
Yuan Ji laughed and said: "It turns out that I am the son of an old friend. When I was traveling around the world, oh, by the way, it was a spring. When I came to Anji, I was deeply impressed by the abundance of moso bamboo and the freshness of spring bamboo shoots in the Xitiao River area, so I went there I lived here for seven days and got to know your father. I still remember the braised pork with spring bamboo shoots that your father made. It was delicious." Yuan Ji said, and then sighed: "Hey, it's a pity that your father died young. Yuan Ji After all, I can’t make him live longer,”
At this time, Zhang Shun, who had been lying on the bed, asked: "Yuan Ji, are you Mr. Yuan Ji Yuan of the Imperial Valley?"
"Exactly,"
Zhang Shun was so excited that he coughed again, took a breath and said: "Zhang Gui, Mr. Yuan is my family's benefactor, Mr. Yuan of the Imperial Valley, please hurry up and pay your respects."
Zhang Gui quickly knelt down and said: "Sir, Zhang Gui, on behalf of my father, thank you sir."
"Please get up quickly,"
Yuan Ji put his hands on his hands, and Zhang Gui stood up involuntarily. After Zhang Gui stood up, he was greatly impressed and said: "Sir, it's really good, good at martial arts."
Zhang Shun said again: "Sir, I forgive Zhang Shun for his sin. I cannot salute you. I will bow to you as a big salute after Shun recovers."
Yuan Ji smiled and said: "Zhang Shun, please take a good rest first."
Fang Ling seemed to see that there was another story in this and hurriedly said: "Sir, this is,"
Yuan Ji said: "Master, Miss Fang, it's a story that happened twenty years ago."
"Sir, tell me quickly, Ling'er wants to hear it,"
"Well, more than 20 years ago, I met Zhang Qing, the father of Zhang Gui, in Anji. At that time, Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui were still very young. On the day they arrived in Anji, I drank and talked with Zhang Qing, and we inadvertently got to know each other. We know that there is a fatal flaw in the martial arts of the Zhang family, that is, whenever they reach the age of forty, they will experience retrograde circulation of the veins in the body. In the mild cases, they will be disabled, and in the worst cases, they will be killed. Zhang Qing was already nearly forty years old at the time, just close to At the bottleneck, he couldn't bear to see his two young sons, so he asked me for advice. This is why I stayed in Anji for seven days."
Fang Ling asked: "Have you figured out a way to solve it, sir?"
Yuan Ji thought for a while, nodded and then shook his head and said, "Zhang Shun, Zhang Gui's mother was no longer alive at that time. If Zhang Qing has another problem, the two children left behind will be difficult to survive. I thought for a long time, Finally on the seventh day, I thought of a way to restrain myself, that is, I used the martial arts of the Valley of the Kings to forcefully open up all the veins in Zhang Qing's body, and at the same time opened up the veins in Zhang Gui's body, but I used the martial arts in the Valley of the Kings to open up the veins in Zhang Shun's body. But it couldn't be opened. This may be the reason why Zhang Qing only let Zhang Gui practice martial arts later. However, when Zhang Qing's veins were opened, his body was actually damaged, so he still died young ten years later. Alas,, "
Fang Ling said: "Sir, you have tried your best."
"Well," Yuan Ji said, "Zhang Gui, you are fine. When you were practicing your family's martial arts, you had a clear connection. Naturally, you will not make the same mistakes as your father. I later returned to the Valley of the Kings and specifically consulted a person in the valley. A senior master who was proficient in martial arts and medical skills, after his research, he found that the wrong order of this kind of martial arts would cause the practitioner's veins to be blocked, but he did not know the correct order. Later, he saw it on Chisong Mountain in Jinhua. After reading the Chisong Sutra, I suddenly understood the problem with the Zhang family's martial arts. Zhang Gui, when you teach others in the future, you only need to reverse the order of the third and sixth sections of your family's martial arts."
Zhang Gui said happily: "That means my eldest brother can also practice martial arts."
Yuan Ji smiled and said: "Of course,"
"It turns out there is such a connection, Zhang Gui, please continue talking," I thought to myself, "it seems that Zhang Gui is the two heroes in the Battle of Xiangyang in history, and Zhang Gui's nickname is It is this 'Zhuyuan Zhang',"
"Yes," Zhang Gui continued, "after my father passed away, I took over the title of 'Zhuyuan Zhang' and gained a little fame in the martial arts world around Anji, while my eldest brother has been studying military training. The Art of War was not fully developed until a few days ago. I happened to hear that the Lin'an Army was recruiting generals, so my eldest brother and I went to Lin'an. Unexpectedly, my eldest brother caught wind and cold on the way. We persisted to Lin'an and stayed here, in this room. In the inn opened by a fellow countryman, if it weren't for the grace of the young master, we really don't know what to do."
Zhang Shun, who was on the bed, coughed a few more times and said: "Master Huyan, we two brothers deeply feel that the master is very righteous, so Zhang will not say more polite words. In the future, whenever the master is sent to do anything, we will be in danger of swords and fire." ,"
Zhang Shun is very thoughtful and thoughtful. Compared to Zhang Gui, he is infinitely better. Even though he is lying on the bed, he clearly knows that the young master who calls himself Yan is really not a simple person. He can call the first-class imperial doctor in the palace casually. Moreover, Yuan Ji in the Valley of the Kings seems to be one of his subordinates. It seems that he is either an important minister in the court or a relative of the emperor.
"Zhang Shun, you should have a good rest first. After you recover, you two brothers will go to Shifeng Trading Company to find me. We will talk then."
Zhang Shun lay on the bed and said: "Okay, we will visit you in three days."
"Well, let's go first,"
Seeing that we were about to leave, Zhang Gui hurriedly said: "Sir, didn't you say you could ask your eldest brother to sign up?"
I replied: "That's right, we have to wait until your elder brother recovers his health. You will arrive at Shifeng in three days. I will ask someone to test you first. If you are really capable, I will tell my friends in the army Recommended to you,"
"Young master, it's my eldest brother, no, not me," Zhang Gui added.
I smiled and said, "Zhang Gui, the imperial court is not limited to recruiting generals to just one person. If you have this idea, you can do it."
"Can I do it too? Apart from having some strength, I don't even know how to read a few words."
"Why not? Generals in the army need commanders who are both civil and military, they need generals who are brave and good at fighting, and they also need strategists who are elegant and strategic. What kind of general do you think you can be?"
