night.
Ma Li and Manao are not at home. They all live in the courtyard.
Mark lives alone in a big house in Jinxiu Community.
In an empty house, a middle-aged man sat on the sofa.
"Am I too hasty to give up the entire forest?" Mark felt lonely.
In the past, he always had several teachers to teach him various knowledge. His life is colorful and lively.
Now, he is alone in the empty room, feeling a little lonely.
He looked down at his hands and washed them carefully.
"Since you have nothing to do, let's go and be busy for a while."
He went to the study room to speculate in US stocks.
He plans to make more money and recharge more.
...
morning.
Mark is fine.
He went to Dr. Zhang to continue studying Chinese medicine.
"An Examination of Poisons" Mark is holding this book and reading it.
He plans to unlock the second skill in medicine: poison.
Poison techniques are included in both Chinese and Western medicine.
While Mark was studying various prescriptions for treating poisoning in traditional Chinese medicine from Dr. Zhang, he was also looking through the introduction to poisons and treatment options in western medicine.
Most of these prescriptions are empirical prescriptions summarized by predecessors and have been proven effective in practice. But things are changing. Maybe the medicinal properties of herbs have changed, and some prescriptions are no longer so effective.
Western medicine is more about studying the ingredients of drugs and the corresponding chemical molecules. After one drug is combined with another drug, the chemical molecules between them change, thereby achieving the detoxification effect.
Chemical molecules are more stable, so most of the drugs that are effective in the laboratory are also effective in actual use.
If you look at it this way, Chinese medicine is just a folk recipe, while Western medicine is the product of science. actually not!
Traditional Chinese medicine does not only have empirical prescriptions, but also has a corresponding set of theories. And those who only know prescriptions are not considered true Chinese medicine practitioners.
The balance of yin and yang is the fundamental theory of traditional Chinese medicine, and there are also theories such as the mutual promotion and mutual restraint of the five elements.
Most people who don't understand it will regard the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine as metaphysics and thus regard it as feudal superstition.
The balance of yin and yang is the fundamental theory used to explain the universe.
As a fundamental theory, there is no problem with it being used to explain micro-universes like the human body.
It is very unusual for ancient Xia scholars to have such insights and theories.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is explained in a more macro form. It is often difficult to explain why, because the theory is too big and too general to be easily understood, and sometimes it may not be explained clearly.
Under such a grand theory, if you want to understand the human body well, it is actually difficult to refine it into every aspect. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine focuses on actual results. Use the results to verify whether the theory is correct.
Western medicine, on the other hand, only pursues simple things such as the ingredients of the drug, the molecular formula of the drug, etc., but it falls short of generalizing. Although sometimes more effective.
The starting point of Western medicine is that the blind man feels the elephant.
Or, the starting point of Western science is that blind men feel the elephant.
They feel that whatever I can figure out now, then that is the reality, and the rest is unclear and needs to be studied.
They feel that such a truth-seeking and pragmatic spirit is very good. Even if I am wrong about it now, it doesn't matter. Future generations will step on the shoulders of their predecessors and continue to develop forward. One day they will understand everything.
They have the courage to admit that they are wrong.
They dare to overthrow previous theories.
Their theories can all be hypotheses and then constantly improved.
This idea seems very reasonable and very 'scientific'!
In fact, the effect of this is that the ant swallows the elephant. They want to let the ants get to know the elephants over a long period of time. Is this possible? I don't know, maybe it will work, maybe it will be a dead end.
Which one is better, the grandeur of Chinese medicine or the subtlety of Western medicine?
In today's society, most people are more willing to accept Western medicine. This is the impact of Western science. Because it pays more attention to the present, is better able to solve practical problems, and is simpler and more effective.
Traditional Chinese medicine often sees protection and cannot cut off the inheritance. It seems that traditional Chinese medicine is being abandoned by more and more people.
So has traditional Chinese medicine really been abandoned by people?
Maybe that's not the case, maybe Chinese medicine has been abandoned by some people with ulterior motives!
As for the patient, I don't care, as long as my disease is cured, I don't care whether you use Chinese medicine or Western medicine.
Therefore, when it comes to abandoning traditional Chinese medicine, it may be that doctors or those who manage doctors want to abandon traditional Chinese medicine.
Mark read for a long time, and he only had this idea. He is just a human being, not a god or a saint, and there are too many things he doesn’t understand.
He doesn’t know whether Chinese medicine or Western medicine is more powerful, but he prefers to believe in Chinese medicine.
Because Chinese medicine pays more attention to the way of nature, and the medicines it generates are things that can be quickly dissolved in nature. Mark believes more in natural things. He believes in the laws of nature.
Western medicine is more about chemical products, which are chemical formulas generated under specific circumstances. It’s not that it’s bad, but it’s far from the way of nature. Mark doesn't like this kind of thing.
But Mark doesn’t reject Western medicine either. It would be foolish to reject any theory blindly if it is proved to be effective in practice.
What Mark prefers is to study medical skills with the theory of traditional Chinese medicine as the main body and the methods of western medicine as supplement.
Mark’s study of traditional Chinese medicine has now gradually been integrated into Western medicine methods.
But this approach seems good, but it is actually very difficult.
Not to mention anything else, just the same thing with different descriptions in Chinese and Western medicine can make people go crazy!
Terminology! Traditional Chinese medicine is called Chinese medicine, and Western medicine is called Western medicine. It is not easy to understand these.
Then, the two theories are not corresponding, but each has its own theory. How do you combine them?
Therefore, Mark is now only focusing on things that are easy to integrate the two.
And poison is something that easily combines with the two.
Mark wants to try to combine traditional Chinese and Western medicine by studying poisons.
His idea seemed feasible, but he didn't know if he could quickly develop poison skills and get started. Then, through higher-end krypton gold methods, he became a generation of poison doctors, haha.
"Xiao Ma, come on, give this patient an injection!" Dr. Zhang shouted.
"Here we come, Doctor Zhang!" Mark shouted. He is now inferior to Dr. Zhang in acupuncture, so Mark is the one who treats patients in this field.
"Xiao Ma's acupuncture skills have surpassed mine, and I feel ashamed of myself." Seeing that the patient was a little unhappy, Dr. Zhang explained to the patient.
"Congratulations, congratulations, you are better than the old." The patient smiled.
...
"Hey, second uncle, why don't you come to me?" Wang Xiaomi's cute voice sounded.
Wang Xiaomi's voice always made Mark feel happy.
"I'm studying here with Dr. Zhang. I'll meet you later." Mark said with a smile.
"Second uncle, let me tell you good news. My mother agrees that we can be together!" Wang Xiaomi said happily.
"Really? Great! Xiaomi, I'm going to find you now!" Mark said happily.
"Okay, second uncle, I'm at the beauty salon. Come quickly." Wang Xiaomi said happily.
