Save the Bachelor of Heaven

On this day, Xiang Nan was teaching at Peide Medical School again.

"Master, Master Lu brought a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner to visit you~" At this moment, Defu hurried in.

Hearing his shout, the students were a little moved.

Although foreigners have come to the capital for a long time, English, French, American, German, Italian...but they have only seen it from a distance, and have not had close contact with it. To be honest, I'm still a little curious.

"Okay, don't talk about it. Isn't it a foreigner, what's the big deal." Xiang Nan curled his lips, "Come on, come with me to see the excitement."

When the students heard it, they were very interested, and they all followed suit.

...

Xiang Nan brought the students to Yixiaotang, and saw Lu Zhengming standing in the lobby with a tall foreigner in a western suit, with blond hair and blue eyes.

When the patients in the lobby saw this foreigner, they avoided him one after another. At the same time, they secretly looked at him curiously, as if they were looking at a magical animal.

"Mr. Xi, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Smith from England." Lu Zhengming said with a smile, "Mr. Smith, this is the famous miracle doctor Xi Lai Le Xi."

"Master, what's his name, is he dead or not?! This name is too unlucky." Defu couldn't help complaining when he heard it.

"Go, don't talk nonsense." Xiang Nan rolled his eyes at him, then cupped his hands, "Mr. Smith, hello~"

"Hello, Mr. Xi." Smith stretched out his hand and said.

Xiang Nan knew it was a handshake, but he still pretended to be taken aback and pretended not to understand.

After all, his current identity is a doctor from the countryside, and he has never seen a foreigner. If you know the handshake ceremony as soon as you meet, it would be a bit out of line.

"Mr. Xi, Mr. Smith wants to shake hands with you." Lu Zhengming said hastily, "You just extend your hand."

"Oh, shaking hands~ It turns out they don't like bowing to each other." Xiang Nan suddenly realized, stretched out his hand, and shook hands with Smith.

A lot of people around looked at it, and they all thought it was quite strange.

...

"Mr. Xi, Mr. Smith is also a doctor just like you, but he is a Western doctor. He is very interested in our traditional Chinese medicine, so he came here to take a look." Lu Zhengming explained with a smile.

"I see. Welcome." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Mr. Smith, our traditional Chinese medicine focuses on seeing, hearing, and asking. Come, let me take your pulse."

"Pulse?!" Smith couldn't understand.

"Mr. Smith, please stretch out your hand, so..." Lu Zhengming demonstrated.

Smith nodded, then stretched out his left hand.

Xiang Nan immediately checked his pulse, "Mr. Smith, do you always feel poor appetite, mouth sores, red and swollen eyes recently?"

"Yes, yes." Smith nodded, "How do you know?"

"Haha, you're on fire. It's okay, I'll prescribe some medicine for you, just go back and eat." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Defu, grab the medicine. Raw licorice three qian, skullcap, dried ginger, One qian each for Banxia, ​​two qian for Coptis chinensis... Three bowls of water are boiled into one bowl, one for morning and one for evening, within two days, you will be covered with medicine until your illness is cured.”

Defu immediately began to take medicine, licorice, scutellaria, pinellia, coptis...

Smith was very surprised when he saw it, "Mr. Xi, do you use these grass roots and bark to treat my illness? It's incredible!"

"It's okay, there is an old saying in China, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. If you don't believe it, try it yourself." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "If it takes two days, the disease won't be cured. You Come to me, and I will refund your medicine money."

Smith nodded.

...

Two days later, Lu Zhengming brought Smith back.

"Mr. Smith, how are you? Are you recovering?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

"Unbelievable, my illness is really cured." Smith said in surprise.

Western medicine does not have the concept of getting angry. They think that mouth sores are viral infections. But because no anti-inflammatory drugs were invented at that time, I could only stand firm.

He didn't expect that such a disease could be cured with bark and grass roots, which made him really feel amazing.

"That's good, that's good." Xiang Nan nodded with a smile, "Now, you admit that our bark and grass roots can cure diseases."

"Yes, admit it, admit it." Smith nodded repeatedly.

Seeing that foreigners praised Xiang Nan's medical skills, the students, patients, and even Lu Zhengming felt honored.

Over the years, the foreigner's strong boats and guns have beaten the Chinese people with no strength to fight back. They have been defeated repeatedly and shamed, and even the Chinese people feel ashamed.

Now there is finally something superior to them. Even foreigners recognize the magic of Chinese medicine, which naturally makes them feel very proud.

"Mr. Xi, can you teach me your medical skills? I'm very interested." Smith said again.

"Of course." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "However, Chinese medicine has a long history and is extensive and profound. It has been passed down from ancient times to the present, and it has a history of at least five thousand years. You can imagine how rich it is.

If you want to learn, you may have to learn the basics for three to five years. Are you sure you want to learn? "

"I want to learn, of course I have to learn." Smith said firmly.

Western medicine does not have anti-inflammatory technology, and many people are forced to scald their wounds with red-hot irons after they are injured and infected. Otherwise, the only option is surgery and amputation.

In comparison, Xiang Nan can cure the infection with bark and grass roots, which in his opinion is really miraculous. If he can learn it, he will undoubtedly become the greatest doctor in the western world, and countless patients who would otherwise die will be saved because of him.

So, don't say three to five years, even if it is thirty or fifty years, he is willing to pay.

"Well, if that's the case, then you can learn from me." Xiang Nan nodded with a smile.

It was a good thing for him to keep Smith by his side.

First, at the end of the nineteenth century, the status of foreigners in China was very high. In the satirical novel "The Appearance of the Officialdom" in the late Qing Dynasty, there is a scene where a foreigner meets a foreigner and his legs tremble with fright. Therefore, having a foreigner by your side can play the role of pretending to be a tiger.

Secondly, recruiting a foreign student is also a matter of great face. Just like in the 1980s and 1990s, a group of famous comic artists were willing to recruit a few foreign students.

Thirdly, Mr. Smith is British and has overseas relations. Xiang Nan is thinking about where to go in the future. With Smith, a foreigner, there will be a way to go overseas in the future.

After all, after the Restoration, Prince Jing will soon lose power and will no longer be able to protect him. Moreover, when the Eight-Nation Allied Forces enter the capital, it will be in chaos.

Not to mention, after the collapse of the Qing court, Yanjing was a battleground for military strategists, and the king's flag changed on the top of the city, and I will appear on the stage after you sing. At that time, there will be no strong forces to protect, so if you do business here, you will just wait to be wiped out.

In the TV series "The Mansion Gate", the Bai family was forced to donate by warlords many times, and was robbed of hundreds of thousands of oceans. It can be seen from this that the capital city is difficult to deal with and must be evacuated as soon as possible.
