Chapter 155 Persuasion (recommendation ticket requested)
Sun Simiao looked about 50 to [-] years old, his complexion was a bit dark probably because he had been collecting herbs in the mountains for a long time.
Calculated by age, Sun Simiao should be 90 or [-] years old now.
Historically, there has been a lot of controversy over Sun Simiao's age. The least is that Sun Simiao lived to be 160 years old, and the most is that he lived to be [-] years old.
More convincing should be to live to 140 years old.
In any case, he lived at least over 100 years old, which is already unique in ancient times when "human beings reach seventy since ancient times are rare".
"Lin Xuan met Daoist Sun!" Lin Xuan bowed respectfully.
Sun Simiao's character and his contribution deserve his gift.
"Master Hou is very polite. The grassroots admire Master Hou's medical skills very much. I wonder if Master Hou can give you some advice." Sun Simiao returned the salute and said with a smile.
"Daozhang Sun, I don't know anything about medical skills, how can I teach Taoist priest!" Lin Xuan said hastily.
To teach Sun Simiao?
Don't be kidding, he knows shitty medical skills, but he just took the opportunity to be reborn and knows a little more.
"Your Majesty is being modest. How can you not use medicine stones to make the empress look so much better?" Sun Simiao said.
Lin Xuan was suffering hard to say, he was really not humble.
"Sun Daochang, you can see a doctor for the empress first, and then talk about this when I help you when you are done," Lin Xuan said.
He was going to tell Sun Simiao what he knew, but he didn't know if it would help.
Sun Simiao was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Lord Hou!"
After waiting for a while, Ruxue brought over the boiled medicine.
After Empress Changsun finished drinking the medicine, Sun Simiao took her pulse again and found nothing abnormal, said: "Your Majesty, empress, according to this prescription, just take one dose every half a month."
"Thank you, Daoist!" Li Shimin said.
Sun Simiao said: "It is the duty of a doctor to cure the disease and save the patient, and I should not thank Your Majesty!"
……
"Can the priest know how to ride a horse?" Lin Xuan asked.
Sun Simiao nodded, and said: "Although the caoman's equestrian skills are not very good, normal riding is still no problem."
"I have great admiration for Daoist Sun, so don't call yourself a grassroots!" Lin Xuan said.
Sun Simiao is always a grassroots grassroots, he is really not used to it.
Sun Simiao laughed, and said, "The old man listens to Lord Hou."
He usually saves people regardless of rich or poor, high or low, and he has no desires or desires, so he does not have the awe of ordinary people for the lord.
"Liu Da, bring a horse to Daoist Sun!" Lin Xuan ordered.
"Yes!"
Liu Da asked other soldiers to let out a horse and lead it to Sun Simiao.
"Please mount Daoist Sun!" Liu Da said.
"Thank you!"
Sun Simiao thanked and got on his horse.
Lin Xuan got into the lion's stall, and a group of people walked to Lin's house.
Back at Lin's house, Lin Xuan took Sun Simiao to his yard.
After ordering Chunyue and the others to serve tea, Lin Xuan let them go down.
When only Lin Xuan and Sun Simiao were left in the living room, Sun Simiao couldn't wait to ask: "Master Hou, do you have any basis for your suggestion that there should be no pollen in Qi disease and that we should pay attention to keeping warm and ventilating?"
"Master Dao, gas disease is a respiratory disease, and pollen and some dust are inhaled by people with gas disease, which will stimulate their respiratory tract and induce the attack of gas disease." Lin Xuan said.
Not all pollen is irritating to asthma patients, but he only knows a little bit about it, and he doesn't know which ones are irritating and which ones are not.
Sun Simiao asked with some doubts: "Master Hou, what is the respiratory tract?"
Lin Xuan explained to Sun Simiao what the respiratory tract is, why it is necessary to keep warm, and the purpose of maintaining air circulation.
"The old man has been taught!" Sun Simiao said.
Recently, he is also researching on the prevention of diseases. He believes that as long as people take proper precautions, many diseases can be avoided.
And what Lin Xuan said gave him a lot of inspiration.
Lin Xuan told Sun Simiao all he knew, including some methods and techniques for curing diseases in later generations.
The two chatted until it was getting dark, and Sun Simiao said: "Listening to Hou Ye's words, the old man has received a lot of goods, and many doubts that I have been unable to figure out have been solved. It is getting late today, and the old man will take his leave first. Grandpa ask for advice!"
"If the Taoist leader doesn't dislike it, he can stay in the humble house." Lin Xuan said.
How could he let Sun Simiao go.
Sun Simiao thought for a while and said, "Then I will trouble Lord Hou."
He benefited a lot from chatting with Lin Xuan, and wanted to chat with Lin Xuan more.
"I'm arranging someone to prepare dinner now. I don't know if the boss has any taboos?" Lin Xuan asked.
He was very happy to keep Sun Simiao.
Sun Simiao said with a smile: "The old man practiced Taoism only to cultivate his heart, and there is no taboo. Master Hou can just ask someone to prepare some casually, and it doesn't need to cost too much."
Lin Xuan heard that Sun Simiao had no taboos, so he ordered Chunyue and the others to prepare dinner.
"I don't know what the plan is in the future!" Lin Xuan asked.
He wanted to keep Sun Simiao in Chang'an. Although he was in good health, who could guarantee that he would not get sick later?
Even if he doesn't need it, in case someone in the family gets sick, he can use it.
He proposed to Li Shimin to find Sun Simiao, more for Li Lizhi's consideration. Historically, Li Lizhi died in her 20s.
He believed that with his preventive plan and Sun Simiao's treatment, even though her asthma could not be cured, it could also reduce her attacks.That way she won't die so early.
It would be even better if some drugs for the treatment of asthma can be signed in the future.
"The old man will stay in Chang'an for a few days, taking the pulse of the empress. If there is no problem, the old man will continue to travel around the world, treating diseases and saving lives." Sun Simiao said.
Lin Xuan said with a smile: "The Taoist priest hangs the pot to help the world, which is admirable, but how can the Taoist priest alone cure the people in the world? Why don't we build a medical school in Chang'an, recruit more apprentices, and pass on the Taoist priest's medical skills to them. to help more people.”
He read some novels, and he kept Sun Simiao in this way. He felt that Sun Simiao would not refuse.
Sun Simiao shook his head and said: "Of course I understand this truth. Over the years, I have taken in many apprentices, and they are now practicing medicine in various places. But in recent years, I plan to combine what I have learned all my life with some of my insights into practicing medicine. , write it into a medical book and leave it to future generations. I don’t plan to accept apprentices anymore.”
Lin Xuan was a little dumbfounded. How could others keep Sun Simiao behind when they said that?
Lin Xuan's mind turned, thinking about how to persuade Sun Simiao to stay.
"I don't know whether the medical skills done by the chief are going to be passed on to his descendants, or to the world?" Lin Xuan asked.
Sun Simiao said: "I don't want to cherish my own broom. I write medical skills to benefit the world, so naturally I want to leave it to the world."
He gave up literature and medicine and had to go through a lot of hardships to acquire this medical skill. He can understand the hardship.
"The mind of the Taoist priest is admirable, but famous doctors in history have left their own medical books, such as Bian Que's "Bian Que Internal Classic" and "Bian Que External Classic", Hua Tuo's "Qing Nang Jing", Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", but now it is lost. How long does the priest think your medical books have been handed down by you?" Lin Xuan asked.
Sun Simiao's face turned pale, which was also what he was worried about.
"Master Hou said so, is there a way to solve this matter?"
Sun Simiao is not stupid, since Lin Xuan told him this, there should be a solution.
"Does Taoist know why the Four Books and Five Classics have been handed down for so long? In addition to the fact that there are so many literati who read the Four Books and Five Classics in the world, another important reason is that there are so many Four Books and Five Classics handed down in the world, so they will never be lost!" Lin Xuan said with a smile. .
"What does Lord Hou mean?" Sun Simiao asked.
Lin Xuan said: "As long as Daoist Sun intends to stay in Chang'an, I will persuade His Majesty to wait for the doctor's medical writing to be completed, and let the book making bureau print medical books and spread them all over the world."
In fact, Sun Simiao's medical books were not lost at all, but Sun Simiao didn't know it.
Sun Simiao was a little hesitant, he didn't want the medical books he had spent his whole life to lose.
But he is also unwilling to stay in Chang'an, only serving the dignitaries.
Lin Xuan saw Sun Simiao's concerns, and said with a smile: "I can fund the Taoist priest to open a hospital in Chang'an, no matter ordinary people or high-ranking officials can come to seek medical treatment, and the Taoist priest can usually accept some apprentices. It’s enough to teach them by the way when he treats illnesses. When he’s free, he writes medical books, what does the Taoist think?”
Lin Xuan's words moved Sun Simiao very much. In this way, he can treat diseases for the common people and spread his medical books to the world. It can be said to have the best of both worlds.
"Master Hou funded the establishment of a hospital. I don't know how ordinary people come to see a doctor. How does Lord Hou plan to charge?" Sun Simiao asked.
Ordinary people don't have much money at all. He usually sees a doctor for the people, except that he doesn't charge money, and sometimes he has to pay for some herbs he picked himself.
If Lin Xuan charged too high a price, the common people would not come at all.
"Don't worry, Taoist priest, ordinary people don't need to charge money to see a doctor. Of course, they have to spend money to buy medicine, but they will not be forced to buy it in our hospital. They can also buy it elsewhere with prescriptions. For those who really buy medicine People who can’t afford medicine can even give away medicinal materials. As for those dignitaries, of course they have to charge a consultation fee, and the more expensive the consultation fee, the better.” Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Sun Simiao asked suspiciously: "So those people will be willing to pay?"
Although he treats diseases regardless of high or low, he is not stubborn. He does not reject money from rich people.
Lin Xuan said confidently: "The priest doesn't understand those rich people. They are very afraid of death. If you spend less money when you see a doctor, they will think you are useless."
This is the case in future generations. The poor feel that they spend too much on medical treatment.
Those rich people, once they spend less, they will feel that doctors are not good.
Of course, not all people are like this, so we can't generalize.
"Let the old man consider this matter!" Sun Simiao did not immediately agree.
"The Taoist priest has considered it, no matter what the result is, please let me know." Lin Xuan said.
He was very confident that Sun Simiao would stay.
