Gu Yunjiao continued: “Many people in the world make fake medicines for money. The valuable ones, such as ginseng panax notoginseng, are slightly cheaper medicines, and there are also fake medicines.”
“Therefore, one must be careful when recognizing medicines. Fake medicines sold to patients are not only ineffective, but some are even harmful.”
A Tie nodded, “I must be careful.”
Gu Yunjiao smiled and said again: “If you are careful, you must be patient.”
“For example – I will tell you about the concoction of medicinal herbs, and you will know how troublesome it is.”
She paused, “There is a medicine called Renzhong Huang. People in the world have many misunderstandings about this medicine and think it is too dirty.”
“Some people even see the yellowish thing and think it’s human excrement. That’s not right.”
“This man’s yellow is actually powdered with licorice, and then poured into a bamboo tube for scraping the skin, blocked with yellow paper, and then sealed with rosin.”
“Then on the day of the beginning of winter, soak the bamboo tube in the Qingshui cesspool.”
Ah Tie used pig feces to cure diseases, but he doesn’t dislike these feces and urine. He listened very carefully.
The front Liu Er couldn’t help but interject, “Put it in the cesspool, isn’t it dirty? This medicine has to be imported!”
Gu Yunjiao smiled, “That bamboo has a layer of membrane inside, you know that.”
“Those dirty things can’t get through.”
is actually bacteria and viruses, the molecules are relatively large and cannot penetrate this membrane.
The rest of the small molecular organics, the inorganic salts can penetrate the membrane and interact with drugs.
Gu Yunjiao continued: “After soaking in it, on the day of the beginning of spring, take out the bamboo tube, and after taking it out, put the bamboo tube in the east water to float.”
A Tie asked: “What is the East Flowing Water?”
Gu Yun smiled charmingly, “The great rivers in our Great Chu Dynasty all flow eastward into the sea, and this river is also the eastward water.”
A Tie suddenly realized, “That is to say, put the bamboo tube into the river to float.”
Gu Yunjiao nodded, “Usually find those big boats that don’t move, hang them on the side of the boat, and then fish them out after two months.”
“After this step, those bad smells are completely dissipated, and the toxicity and heat are also removed.”
“So, people who are really bleached will not have a bad smell.”
Liu Er, who was in front of him, was stunned, “My God, this medicine is so troublesome to make!”
Gu Yun Jiao smiled, “It’s not over yet, put these bamboo tubes on the roof for a long time to dry, and then split the bamboo tubes. At this time, the licorice powder inside is glued together into the shape of a bamboo tube. Cylinder, take this thing out, dry it in the sun, and then use it as medicine.”
After Gu Yunjiao finished speaking, she decided to test Ah Tie, “Do you remember the steps I just mentioned?”
A Tie thought for a while and began to repeat.
Gu Yunjiao listened attentively, although he didn’t do it word for word, but he remembered all the steps, and there were no mistakes, which was very rare, indicating that he really listened.
She laughed and gave Ah Tie a thumbs up.
A Tie asked curiously, “What’s the use of this medicine?”
Gu Yunjiao said: “It can clear heat and cool blood, purify fire and detoxify.”
A Tie’s eyes lit up, “Is it possible to use sores like the ones on my head?”
Gu Yunjiao nodded, “Smart, it can indeed be used.”
“Huangzhong Huang can cure plague, erysipelas, and malignant sores. However, this also involves formulating prescriptions. It is not just a single medicine. This has to be learned slowly.”
Gu Yunjiao said again: “You learn pharmacy first, if you have the talent, I will teach you to see a doctor in the future.”
