Chapter 1948 - 1948 These are just appetizers.

“This is my own compilation of ancient and modern drug dosage ratios over these yonder.”

While holding the notebook up, the Sacred Doctor Niu opened his mouth and said, “The same disease, the same remedy, how many grams in modern times to be equal to the ancient remedy.”

When Fang Qiu heard this, he was shocked.

Ancient and modern drug dosage ratios?

It’s definitely a big job!

It is important to know that although the ancient prescriptions are clearly recorded the amount of medicine, but after thousands of years of development, both the quality of drugs and the rules of measurement have seen some changes, which leads to the present, there are a lot of prescriptions in accordance with the dose of the ancient prescriptions, the effect is not so good.

This is one of the points on which Chinese medicine has been attacked.

Fang Qiu didn’t expect it.

The Sacred Doctor Niu, because of the discovery of the insufficient quality of Chinese herbs, even began to write the ancient and modern medicinal dose ratio, which is the result of countless attempts to finally arrive at the result, it is not at all a matter of converting the unit of measurement into something.

“Can I see it?”

Shocked, Fang Qiu directly opened his mouth to request, wanting to see how shocking the content written inside this thick notebook was.

“Of course not.”

The Ox Saint Doctor hemmed and hawed and shook his head, “However, as long as you can pass my examination, I can give you this notebook for free.”

“Hmm?”

Fang Qiu froze.

“Because, the content of the test, is related to this notebook, so you can’t read it.”

The cow sage doctor explained.

“Good.”

Fang Qiu nodded in understanding, since it was related to the examination, it was really not working, even if Sacred Doctor Niu opened it for him to look at, he would not look at it.

“Now, can we have the test questions?”

Fang Qiu asked.

“Exactly.”

Sage Doctor Niu said with a smile, then took out a piece of paper for himself and handed it over towards Fang Qiu.

Fang Qiu immediately reached out and picked up the paper.

Just got it in my hand and took a closer look, this piece of paper was densely written with thousands of herbs.

“There are thousands of herbs written on this piece of paper, go and pick these herbs for me.”

While Fang Qiu was viewing the words on the paper, Sage Doctor Niu smiled and said, “As a Chinese medicine practitioner, you have to be solid in the basics, don’t you think so?”

Fang Qiu smiled bitterly.

Even the Compendium of Materia Medica contains only 1,892 types of Chinese herbs, but there are more than 1,000 types of herbs recorded on this piece of paper, which is considered half of the Compendium of Materia Medica.

Although he laughed bitterly, Fang Qiu did not hesitate, and after quickly scanning through the herbs noted on the paper, he immediately began to do so.

Anyway, Sage Doctor Niu hadn’t said that it had to be in order, and with so many herbs, how long would it take to get them if they were in order?

So.

Fang Qiu directly took the paper and walked into the herb garden, and began to frantically pick them without stopping for a moment, anyway, basically what he could see was pretty much in the list on the paper.

In this case, Fang Qiu’s picking was very fast.

Outside the cabin, at the tea table.

Looking at Fang Qiu who was rapidly picking herbs, Sage Doctor Niu nodded his head gently, and even took out a telescope that he had prepared at some unknown time to look at it when Fang Qiu had walked away.

This way.

Because the herbs that needed to be picked were just too many, Fang Qiu had to keep his speed fast enough to be able to do so, after all, thousands of species, picking one a minute would be a matter of a thousand minutes.

It’s only 720 minutes a day.

Therefore, Fang Qiu had to be as quick as possible.

About an hour later.

Only then did Fang Qiu finally manage to pick more than a thousand kinds of Chinese herbs, all of them complete.

That works out to one kind of picking every three seconds.

This kind of speed, if it were an ordinary person, it would never be possible, but under Fang Qiu, it wasn’t considered fast.

This way.

Seeing Fangchu’s picking completed.

Sage Doctor Niu was also taken aback, he had wanted to take the opportunity of picking herbs to sharpen Fang Qiu, but he didn’t expect Fang Qiu’s speed to be so fast.

Over a thousand herbs and it only took an hour?

That’s too fast, isn’t it?

Shocked.

“Now that we’re done picking, let’s move on to the next step.”

Sacred Doctor Niu looked at Fang Qiu and said, “Next, I’ll talk about the herbs, and you’ll bring out the herbs I mentioned.”

“Sanji.”

Sage Doctor Niu was not polite at all and directly began to say the names of the medicinal herbs.

Fang Qiu immediately took out the panax ginseng from inside the bamboo wicker that he had only asked for.

“Dendrobium.”

After determining that the herbs Fang Qiu had taken out were correct, Sage Doctor Niu spoke of another herb.

Fang Qiu quickly took out the herbs.

“Wait.”

The second herb had only just been put down when Fang Qiu opened his mouth and said, “One thousand herbs, taking them out one by one like this is really too slow.”

“Let’s do this, I’ll follow the order on this piece of paper, and set up all of the more than one thousand medicinal herbs, and you can inspect them.”

Say it and do it.

Didn’t wait for the Holy Doctor of Cow to agree.

Fang Qiu immediately began to place them in the order on the paper.

Just placing the herbs, that speed could be much faster than picking them.

It doesn’t.

Fang Qiu walked quickly while constantly taking out medicinal herbs from the bamboo wicker to place them on the halfway slope of the herbal medicine courtyard facing this side.

Less than fifteen minutes.

Fang Qiu then set up more than a thousand kinds of medicinal herbs, all of them.

See this scene.

Saint Doctor Niu was astonished.

After carefully observing the whole thing from start to finish, he realized that the herbs Fang Qiu had placed were not wrong at all, they were all right!

“Well, good.”

The Ox Saint Doctor nodded in satisfaction.

“My test, passed?”

Fang Qiu asked with a smile.

“What just passed?”

Sage Doctor Niu froze and said, “This is just the beginning!”

Words.

Fang Qiu was speechless.

I thought that, from the conversation just now, the Ox Saint Doctor’s examination should be some of these, but I didn’t expect that the words said by this Ox Saint Doctor weren’t reliable ah, but it’s only just begun?

“In that case, let’s get on with it.”

Fang Qiu said with a bitter smile.

“You’ll have to concentrate on the following test.”

Sage Doctor Niu smiled and nodded, saying, “I will choose one hundred herbs out of these one thousand herbs, and when I say one you will tell me a method of concoction.”

“Good.”

Fang Qiu was not the least bit ambiguous and immediately nodded his head in agreement.

“The first, astragalus.”

The Ox Saint Doctor opened his mouth and said.

“Astragalus is available in raw and cooked concoctions.”

Fang Qiu excused himself and replied, “The first, astragalus slices, take the original herb, remove impurities, wash it, moisten it, cut thick slices, and dry it.”

“The second kind of honey astragalus: take refined honey diluted with appropriate amount of boiling water, add astragalus slices and mix well, slightly smothered, placed in the frying pan, heated with a gentle fire, fried until dark yellow, not sticky to the degree, removed and cooled. For every 100 kilograms of astragalus slices, use 25 kilograms of refined honey.”

Hear all that.

Sage Doctor Niu nodded with a smile and said, “The second, Tian Qi.”

“There are very few methods of preparing panax ginseng contained in the literature of the ages, while there are three modern methods of preparation.”

Fang Qiu opened his mouth and said, “One: take the original herbs, go out the impurities, and just mash them when you use them.”

“II. Panax ginseng powder: take Panax ginseng, wash, dry, and grind fine powder.”

“Third, cooked panax pseudoginseng: take net panax pseudoginseng, broken, separated into large and small pieces, fried with cooking oil until the surface brownish-yellow, removed, drained off the oil, cooled after the research called fine powder. Or take panax pseudoginseng, wash it, steam it through and take it out, even if it is sliced and dried.”

The Ox Saint Doctor nodded his head as he listened.

Only after Fang Qiu had finished did he open his mouth and say, “The third: white magic.”

“There are a number of concoctions of atractylodes.”

Fang Qiu opened his mouth and replied, “In the Tang Dynasty, there were methods of boiling yellow and earth frying. In the Song Dynasty, there were methods of cannoning, frying yellow, soaking in rice slop, frying in bran after soaking in rice slop, frying in vinegar, simmering, roasting, cooking in earth, and frying after soaking in rice slop.”

“In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a method of slightly frying astragalus, dendrobium, oyster, and bran each in yellow color, and removing the remaining medicines to use only atractylodes.”

“The Ming Dynasty added a variety of adjuncts such as honey-fried, boiled in water, fried with mung beans, epimedium, ginger, boiled in vinegar, made in wine, made in milk, mixed with Huangtu after being soaked in rice slop and then steamed and sun-dried in nine times, fried in brine, fried in noodles, fried and charred, sliced and steamed in the earth after being dipped in rice slop, fried in honey and water and then fried with a ginger juice.”

“In the Qing Dynasty, additional concoctions were added, such as stir-frying in decocted water of Citrus aurantium, steaming in wine, stir-frying in malt after soaking in rice swill, stir-frying in decocted water of Fragrant Siberian, boiling in a soup of Perilla a Mentha a Scutellaria and Cinnamon, stir-frying in honey, boiling and storing, making with rice and making with Chenpi juice.”

Fang Qiu very confidently said everything in his head.

Then.

And continuing with his mouth open, he said, “At present, there are three modern concoctions.”

“The first: take the original herbs, remove impurities, separate the large and small ones, moisten them with water, cut them into back slices, dry them, and sift them to remove the crumbs.”

“The second kind: soil fried atractylodes: first put the soil in the pot, heated with medium heat, fried until the spit is flexible, put into the atractylodes slices, fried until the surface of atractylodes uniformly hangs on the soil powder when taken out, sieve off the soil powder, and let it cool. Atractylodes macrocephala slices per 100 kilograms with 25 kilograms of soil in the center of the stove.”

“The third: bran fried atractylodes: first the pot surging medium heat, sprinkle into the wheat bran, to be smoking, put into the atractylodes slices, constantly stirring, frying until the atractylodes is yellowish-brown, take out, sieve off the wheat bran, let cool. Atractylodis Macrocephalae slices per 100 kg with 10 kg of bran.”

Hearing Fang Qiu’s reply.

Sacred Doctor Niu’s eyes glared as he gave Fang Qiu a surprised look.

He completely did not expect that Fang Qiu would be able to speak in such detail, even what era had what concoction method was clearly stated in full.

It surprised him greatly.

“Good, let’s continue.”

Sage Doctor Niu nodded in satisfaction and continued to talk about the herbs.

Over there.

Fang Qiu had no way to rush it, so he could only continue like this.

A whole hundred flavors of herbs were said until the evening before they were all finished.

Night.

The herb garden was cool.

The stars are also bright in the night sky of the southern border.

“Very good.”

Only after Rice Fang Qiu said the concoction method of the hundredth herb did Sage Doctor Niu nod his head in satisfaction and looked at Fang Qiu in admiration, “This memory of yours can be ah.”

Fang Qiu smiled.

“Alright, that’s enough for today, take a rest and we’ll continue tomorrow.”

The Holy Doctor of Cow said.

“Huh?”

When Fang Qiu heard this, he couldn’t help but ask with a surprised face, “There’s more?”

“Hey.”

Saint Doctor Niu hemmed and hawed and said, “These, are just appetizers.”

Fang Qiu was bitter.

Hopeless.

The right to make questions was in the hands of the other party, and there was nothing he could do but do as he was told.

Night.

The other three Sacred Doctors, one after the other, all knew the content of the examination.

When they learned that Fang Qiu had only just gone and had been screwed for a day, the three holy doctors couldn’t help but feel that the old man was really ruthless!
