Chapter 322 4 years officially completed
"This is indeed true. Dong Feng's medical skills are almost the same as ours, so writing a medical book is naturally an easy task for him."
Several people talked at once, saying that the fact that Dong Feng came up with them proved that his medical skills were also quite good.
So they firmly believed that if he really wanted to write a medical book, then it would be possible.
Dong Feng's mouth twitched slightly, he covered his face and could only nod. He didn't have the confidence. How could writing medical books be the same as practicing medicine and saving lives?
That is definitely different. Being good at practicing medicine and saving lives does not mean that you can write medical books.
Dong Feng regretted saying this. What if what he wrote was rubbish?
Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
But he couldn't take back what he had said, and Dong Feng felt very nervous.
Forget it, now that he has said it, he can't take it back. He should just write it honestly when he goes back, otherwise he will be laughed at.
And there must be people from other dynasties waiting for him to write.
When Li Wu saw Dong Feng's expression, he couldn't help but laugh secretly, but few other people noticed it.
Everyone in front of the sky curtain thought that Dong Feng could write it.
The other four miracle doctors all have their own representative works, so there is no reason why Dr. Dong Feng has nothing wrong with it.
Dong Feng's fans and medical practitioners also have great trust in Dong Feng and believe that he will definitely be able to write it down, so that they can see it in the future.
"I believe that you, Senior Dong Feng, can do it. Come on," Li Wu made a cheering gesture.
Although others didn't know what it meant, they could guess it.
So they followed Li Wu's example and cheered for Dong Feng, "Come on, senior/junior Dong Feng."
Dong Feng gave a bitter smile and could only nod reluctantly. He was about to cry. Oh my God, please someone come and save him.
Save the child.
I will never brag again.
"Little Immortal, please talk about Li Shizhen's descendants," Dong Feng quickly changed the subject, not wanting people to discuss him anymore.
Otherwise it will never end.
"Okay, Senior Li Shizhen, you also encountered many difficulties when writing medical books.
What gave Mr. Li Shizhen the most headache was the confusing names of the medicines. Many times, you couldn't even figure out the shape and growth of the medicines.
Although the herbal books of the past gave repeated explanations, some authors did not have a deep understanding of the actual situation and simply copied from the books.
So the more I explain, the more confused I become. "Originally, those books, if you just copy them from the books without actually investigating them, how could there not be mistakes?
Li Shizhen nodded suddenly and said, "Little Immortal, you are absolutely right. Each person's description is completely different. This has caused me a lot of trouble." This made his work even more burdensome.
The other people looked at each other for several times. This was true. They had also noticed this problem, but they just didn't think about correcting it.
Especially when some medical books describe the appearance of herbs, they all have different descriptions, which makes people confused and feel like they are not talking about the same herbs.
Everyone's description is different, so it is easy for people who come after them to make mistakes when they recognize the herbs.
"Polygala, I think several of you seniors are familiar with this herb, right?" Li Wu asked. This Polygala does not look very eye-catching, and looks similar to the weeds on the roadside. When you see it, you will think it is just a weed growing on the roadside.
It just blooms, and so do other plants, so it's really inconspicuous.
"What do you think this Polygala looks like, seniors?" Li Wu asked.
"This looks a bit like Bupleurum. Their leaves are very similar, but Polygala is smaller and has white flowers."
"No, Polygala doesn't have purple flowers. The flowers look a bit like crabapple. I think they look a bit like goosegrass."
"It's like a small wild grass with blue flowers, and some with white flowers."
Several miracle doctors have different opinions. In short, everyone has a different opinion on the herb Polygala.
The doctors in the barrage were also talking about what Polygala was like, and they also discovered that when they talked about Polygala, everyone's description was different.
"Seniors, have you noticed? When you described the herb Polygala tenuifolia, each of you described it differently, so naturally the same is true for others. This makes it very difficult for readers to identify what Polygala tenuifolia looks like," Li Wu waved his hand. Everyone's description and understanding are different.
If you rely solely on text, no one can guess what this Polygala looks like.
"That's right, little immortal. So this medical book by Li Shizhen's descendant is really amazing. It has pictures on it. With pictures on it, you can't make a mistake, right?" Zhang Zhongjing said. If you can make a mistake after seeing such clear pictures, then you don't deserve to be a doctor.
Just change the industry.
"That's right. Now everyone knows that Li Shizhen's later book is good," Sun Simiao said with a smile.
"We all know that Li Shizhen's descendants are amazing. They have saved countless people who wanted to study medicine," Dong Feng also said. If they had such a book back then, would they still have to go through so much trouble to learn about herbs?
This makes reading medical books even more inconvenient and quick.
It’s a pity that Li Shizhen’s descendants are behind them. If they were in front, they would have benefited from it.
You and I talked back and forth, and praised Li Shizhen so much that he blushed.
“So it is for this reason that Senior Li Shizhen has put in a lot of effort.
Later, under the inspiration of your father, you, Mr. Li Shizhen, realized that although reading thousands of books is important, traveling thousands of miles is even more indispensable.
So, Mr. Li Shizhen, you not only collected information from hundreds of scholars but also interviewed people from all over the world to conduct an in-depth investigation.
Finally, after twenty-seven years of long-term efforts, Mr. Li Shizhen completed the first draft of "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the sixth year of Wanli in the reign of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, Mr. Li Shizhen, you are not young anymore, you are already sixty-one years old.
It was then revised three times over a period of ten years, a total of more than forty years.
In the 21st year of the Wanli reign, Mr. Li Shizhen passed away at the age of 75.
It was not until the 25th year of the Wanli reign that your "Compendium of Materia Medica" was officially published in Jinling.
It is a pity that Senior Li Shizhen did not live to see the publication of Compendium of Materia Medica," Li Wu sighed, it was a pity.
This is a medical book that took Li Shizhen more than 40 years of painstaking effort to write. Unfortunately, he did not live to see its publication.
Li Shizhen cried and laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if I can see it or not, as long as others can see it. Besides, I can see it now, too." Li Shizhen patted the book and said, "It's not too late, right?"
"Senior Li Shizhen, you are right," Li Wu saw that Li Shizhen's voice was hoarse, and she knew that he was very happy now.
"This, took more than 40 years to be officially completed. This, Li Shizhen's descendant, you..." Hua Tuo stared at Li Shizhen with his eyes wide open, and finally patted his shoulder silently.
Dong Feng was so shocked that his jaw dropped. No, that would mean he would need most of his life to write a medical book. At this moment, he regretted saying that he wanted to write a medical book.
