Chapter 809 Xia Wenyao's Pattern
At Xia Wenyao's invitation, Chen Yang sat down on the sofa on one side of the living room.
The Xia family's living room is decorated elegantly yet solemnly. The antique furniture and the famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall complement each other, showing the profound cultural heritage of this family of traditional Chinese medicine everywhere.
"Xiao Chen, I've heard of your name a long time ago." Xia Wenyao picked up the teacup on the coffee table, took a sip, and looked at Chen Yang gently. "Hong Liang mentioned you to me a lot. At the Lingnan Traditional Chinese Medicine Exchange Conference, you shined brightly and amazed many people."
Chen Yang smiled modestly and said, "Mr. Xia, you are too kind. I am just lucky and I happened to be familiar with the disease I encountered. Compared with you seniors, I still have a lot to learn."
"It's rare for a young person to be neither arrogant nor impatient."
Xia Wenyao nodded approvingly, "I've read the materials of the exchange meeting. You have demonstrated extremely high levels of skill in acupuncture, bone setting, and prescriptions. In particular, your diagnosis and treatment of 'mirror people' patients is truly eye-opening. You are able to look beyond superficial symptoms and grasp the essence of the disease from the perspective of the holistic concept of traditional Chinese medicine. Few people of your age can match your understanding and skills."
It has to be said that Xia Wenyao had a very high opinion of Chen Yang and his words were full of appreciation.
Xia Hongliang listened to his grandfather praising Chen Yang and couldn't help feeling a little "jealous". To be honest, from childhood to adulthood, this was the first time that Xia Hongliang heard Xia Wenyao praise someone in front of him.
After all, with Xia Hongliang's talent, there are not many outsiders who can be praised by Xia Wenyao.
Of course, Xia Hongliang had to admit: "Grandpa, Doctor Chen is not only good at Chinese medicine, but his performance in the liver transplant surgery yesterday was amazing!"
"Oh?"
Xia Wenyao raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Yang with interest. "I heard that you, a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, actually played a key role in hepatobiliary surgery. Can you tell me the reason in detail?"
Chen Yang then told Xia Wenyao the entire process of his participation in the operation, from how he discovered various problems during the operation to how he used the knowledge and skills he had learned to deal with them.
During the narration, Chen Yang deliberately avoided system-related content and only emphasized his usual study and research of Western medicine surgical knowledge, as well as the experience accumulated in practice.
Xia Wenyao listened very attentively, nodded from time to time, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
After Chen Yang finished speaking, Xia Wenyao smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, your learning and adaptability are indeed beyond ordinary people. It is not easy to make achievements in Western medicine surgery while deepening your research in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. However, I also have some concerns."
"Please give me some advice, Mr. Xia." Chen Yang said seriously.
"Although both Chinese medicine and Western medicine are medical sciences, their theoretical systems and ways of thinking are very different. If you are involved in both fields at the same time and cannot integrate them, you are likely to fall into confusion, which is not conducive to the improvement of medical skills."
Xia Wenyao said earnestly: "I have seen many doctors who try to combine Chinese and Western medicine, but only a few can really succeed. It is good for you to have this idea and action, but you must grasp the degree and find a way of integration that suits you."
Chen Yang was startled when he heard this!
In fact, on the way here, Chen Yang had been guessing why Xia Wenyao wanted to see him.
Is it because of Xia Hongliang?
Or is it because of something else?
At this moment, Chen Yang finally understood a little bit. Xia Wenyao wanted to see him, which might be related to his hepatobiliary surgery. Xia Wenyao wanted to remind him not to go astray.
No matter what selfish motives a famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioner like Xia Wenyao has, he can mostly get by in terms of justice. As a traditional Chinese medicine family, he definitely cares about the family, but he also has concerns about the medical profession.
Chen Yang is young but has great skills. Most of the senior doctors who know Chen Yang regard him as a leader in the medical field.
So Xia Wenyao really wanted to give Chen Yang some advice, hoping that Chen Yang would not waste time, waste his talent, or go astray because of his youthful curiosity.
Generally speaking, senior practitioners like Xia Wenyao, who come from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, have quite pure traditional Chinese medicine thinking.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia."
Chen Yang sincerely thanked him and said, "I have benefited a lot from what Mr. Xia said. In fact, I have been thinking about this issue and exploring it in practice. I think that whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, the ultimate goal is to cure diseases and save lives."
"They each have their own advantages and limitations. Only by learning from each other and drawing on each other's strengths to make up for their weaknesses can we better serve patients. Just like in yesterday's operation, I used some concepts and methods of traditional Chinese medicine to assist in solving the problems encountered during the operation, and achieved good results. This."
Chen Yang continued, "In my opinion, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine should not be a combination of theories, but mutual assistance, just like two people working together, working in the same direction, thinking in the same direction, gathering their hearts and minds to form a force, rather than trying to merge two people into one and use the concepts of modern medicine to change Chinese medicine."
"You have come ahead of many people in having such an understanding."
Xia Wenyao's eyes lit up and he smiled, "However, this road is not easy to walk. You will face many challenges and doubts. You must have enough confidence and perseverance to persevere."
This was not the first or second time Xia Wenyao had heard of Chen Yang. Today he called Chen Yang over because, on the one hand, Xia Wenyao really wanted to meet Chen Yang, his junior, and on the other hand, he also wanted to give Chen Yang some advice.
However, after these words, Xia Wenyao admired Chen Yang more and more. Chen Yang was better than he had imagined. Not only was he talented, but his cognition in all aspects was also far beyond that of ordinary people.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia, for your advice. I will pay attention to it." Chen Yang said with a smile.
Xia Wenyao nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly changed the subject: "I heard that you have mastered the 'burning mountain fire' acupuncture method?"
\"I know a thing or two." Chen Yang replied modestly.
\"Can you let an old man like me broaden his horizons?\" Xia Wenyao's eyes flashed with anticipation.
"Of course." Chen Yang nodded with a smile.
Xia Wenyao glanced at Xia Hongliang, who immediately understood: "I'll go prepare the needles."
Soon, Xia Hongliang brought out a set of silver needles.
Xia Wenyao rolled up his sleeves and exposed his arms: "Just demonstrate on my hands. My old cold legs have recurred recently."
Chen Yang cleaned his hands and disinfected them, then took out a three-inch silver needle. He took a deep breath, and suddenly with a flick of his wrist, the needle pierced Xia Wenyao's Hegu acupoint like a swimming dragon.
Xia Wenyao only felt a slight heat at the needle point, and then the heat flowed like a trickle, slowly ascending along the hand yangming large intestine meridian. What's even more amazing is that the heat flow did not spread evenly, but rose and fell like waves, which was indeed called "burning mountain fire".
\"Good!" Xia Wenyao couldn't help but admire: \"This technique is more refined than the old Taoist priest I saw in Zhongnan Mountain when I was young! \"
Chen Yang focused on moving the needles, and removed the needles after about three minutes. Xia Wenyao moved his arms and was surprised to find that the joints that had been aching were much more relaxed.
"Amazing, so amazing!" Xia Wenyao exclaimed, "I have studied this acupuncture technique for half my life but still haven't been able to master it. You are so young and yet you have mastered it so skillfully."
Chen Yang said modestly: "I also learned it by chance."
\"Xiao Chen,\"
Xia Wenyao suddenly sighed, "Traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for thousands of years, and its essence is countless. Unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer people who can truly inherit it. Seeing a young man like you, I, an old man, can finally rest assured."
As he said this, he looked at Xia Hongliang meaningfully. His grandson was very talented, but he was a little too lazy.
Xia Hongliang lowered his head in shame, but an unprecedented fighting spirit was burning in his heart - he could not let his grandfather down again.
To be honest, before meeting Chen Yang, Xia Hongliang had never felt ashamed.
\"Mr. Xia, you are too kind.\"
Chen Yang said sincerely: "Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and extensive, and I have only glimpsed a small part of it."
Xia Wenyao smiled and shook his head: "It's good to be modest, but being too modest is hypocrisy. Come, let me show you something else."
As he spoke, Xia Wenyao led Chen Yang to a corner of the study and opened an ancient cabinet. Inside, dozens of manuscripts were neatly arranged, and the paper had turned yellow.
\"This is the medical practice notes of our ancestors.\"
Xia Wenyao stroked the spine of the book gently, as if stroking a treasure: "It records the treatment experience of countless difficult and complicated diseases. If you are interested, you can come and check it out at any time."
"this......"
This trust made Chen Yangxin stunned again.
In the field of traditional Chinese medicine, this kind of secret family medical records have always been treasures that are not passed on to outsiders. Xia Wenyao's move is tantamount to entrusting part of the Xia family's heritage to him.
\"Mr. Xia...\" Chen Yang didn't know what to say for a moment.
\"No need to say more.\"
Xia Wenyao smiled and patted Chen Yang on the shoulder: "You stay here for a while, and then stay at home for lunch. We can talk while we eat."
Chen Yang stood in front of the quaint bookcase, his eyes fell on the yellowed manuscripts, and his heart was filled with turmoil.
The Xia family has been practicing medicine for generations, and these notes are the crystallization of the life-long experience of countless ancestors. They must contain many lost diagnosis and treatment methods and unknown medical wisdom. Xia Wenyao was willing to share them with him without reservation. Chen Yang was very moved by this trust and respect.
"Mr. Xia, such a precious item, I..." Before Chen Yang could finish his words, Xia Wenyao raised his hand and interrupted him.
"Xiao Chen, I believe in my own judgment."
Xia Wenyao half-jokingly said: "The inheritance of Chinese medicine cannot be limited to one family. You have talent, vision, and the determination to carry forward Chinese medicine. I am only letting you study these notes, but you cannot take them away."
Xia Hongliang stood aside, feeling a little bitter in his heart...
Chen Yang took a breath and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xia."
Xia Wenyao nodded with satisfaction. "Okay, take a look first. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
After saying that, Xia Wenyao took Xia Hongliang out of the study, leaving Chen Yang some space to be alone.
The study was unusually quiet. Chen Yang gently pulled out a notebook and opened it carefully.
The paper has become extremely fragile and could be torn if not handled with care. The handwriting on the notebook is neat and simple, recording the symptoms, diagnosis process and treatment methods of various difficult diseases, as well as many unique insights and perceptions.
Chen Yang was immersed in this precious medical knowledge, and time passed unknowingly.
On the other side, Xia Wenyao took Xia Hongliang out of the study and asked Xia Hongliang: "Do you know my intention?"
"grandfather......."
Xia Hongliang hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you hope to gain Chen Yang's favor and let me study medicine with him?"
"If you can figure this out, my efforts will not be in vain."
Xia Hongliang said: "Of course, this is just one of the reasons. Things are different now than before. We can't be too proud of what we have. Chen Yang is young and talented, and I like him very much."
"grandfather......"
Xia Hongliang shouted, not knowing what to say.
In fact, Xia Hongliang knew very well how much Xia Wenyao valued the family heritage. Although what Xia Wenyao said was right, people have more ways to acquire knowledge now than before, but for a family of traditional Chinese medicine like the Xia family, there are still many heritages that are difficult for outsiders to access.
Today, Xia Wenyao asked Chen Yang to read so many notes in the study, but in fact, he was more about investing in Chen Yang.
In fact, wealthy families always have a grand vision.
Chen Yang came out of the study during lunch, still feeling a little unsatisfied.
For Chen Yang who has a system, he actually does not lack some books. Even lost classics can be obtained from the system.
However, the system could not possibly have medical notes like those passed down by the Xia family.
The Xia family's medical notes record the medical experience of several generations of the Xia family over hundreds of years. These books are precious treasures unique to the Xia family.
Even though he only read part of it, Chen Yang felt that he benefited a lot.
Especially for Chen Yang, Chen Yang has a system, so he will gain more when reading books.
"Xiao Chen, how is it?" Xia Wenyao asked with a smile.
“It’s been a great benefit.”
Chen Yang smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xia."
"You're welcome."
Xia Wenyao smiled and said, "Let's eat first. If you are not in a hurry, you can continue watching after dinner and stay in Shen City for a few more days."
"Doctor Chen, my grandfather has never been so respectful to anyone." Xia Hongliang also said to Chen Yang with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia." Chen Yang thanked him again.
In fact, Chen Yang could more or less guess Xia Wenyao's intention.
There is no free lunch in this world. Xia Wenyao's respect for me is definitely not inexplicable. He must have his own reasons.
However, no matter what, Chen Yang has to accept Xia Wenyao's favor.
In this world, the greatest kindness, apart from the kindness of parents in giving birth to and raising children, is actually teaching and imparting knowledge, and answering questions.
One gave you life and raised you, and the other gave you the ability to stand between heaven and earth, allowing you to survive better in this world.
"Haha, let's eat first."
Xia Wenyao smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, don't think too much. Let Hong Liang study with you in the future. You take good care of him. I have nothing else to ask for."
"Don't worry, Mr. Xia." Chen Yang nodded.
Two in one
