Chapter 59 (2/2)
“Teacher Tao, I promise you that I will try to forget this matter.” Qin Lang gave empty words, then he changed the topic, “Tonight, you experienced so many things, go back and rest, okay?”
“How can I be in the mood to have rest?” Tao Ruoxiang looked at the wounds on Qin Lang’s body, “You…….are you okay? An Desheng said you were poisoned, there shouldn’t be any problems, right?
“I could detoxify the poison in your body, naturally I can also detoxify the poison in my body. I have already told you that I am a skilled doctor.”
“Doctor? You truly are a doctor?” Tao Ruoxiang looked at Qin Lang with doubts, “Traditional Chinese doctors have such great kung fu?”
“Oh…..” Qin Lang didn’t think Tao Ruoxiang would be hard to deceive, his brains moved and then seriously said, “Teacher Tao, the reason you are thinking like that is because you don’t understand traditional Chinese doctors ——let’s talk while going down this hill.”
“Aren’t there snakes all around here?” Tao Ruoxiang’s heart was still palpitating.
“With me here, there are no snakes that will bite you. During primary school, teacher told us that snakes were also people’s good friends, their main diet are harmful pests like rats——”
“Ahh!”
Tao Ruoxiang suddenly gave a frightened sound, because she saw that huge rock python earlier swallowing a whole corpse, only half of the corpse could be seen outside.
“It’s okay.” Qin Lang walked ahead and lightly felt that rock python’s head, then said to Tao Ruoxiang, “Just what I said, snakes only eat harmful pests, all these people are harmful pests. By making the snakes eat them, we are helping their souls find peace.”
Tao Ruoxiang didn’t dare to approach the large python, only following behind Qin Lang and descending the mountain.
When Qin Lang was descending the mountain, these snakes also gradually began to disperse.
“Ah, you just said that I didn’t know what genuine traditional Chinese doctors are, then you tell me about them?” Tao Ruoxiang apparently didn’t intend to let Qin Lang off easily. Actually, she questioned Qin Lang, mainly to divert her attention from the snakes that were present all around her.
“Eh, traditional Chinese doctors? Yes, not only should they be proficient in medical techniques, they must also be skilled in kung fu and also have knowledge in other subjects.”
“Why is it necessary to learn kung fu?”
“There is a common saying among us traditional chinese medicine pract.i.tioners, ‘A traditional Chinese doctor that doesn’t train his Qi is just an empty fart’.”
“Such a vulgar saying has logic?”
“Of course. Traditional chinese medicine is broad and deep, it is not as simple as taking pulse and giving prescription, genuine skilled doctors usually can cure illness without a need to prescribe medicine…….you don’t believe, for example tuina therapy and acupuncture of traditional chinese medicine, these are two profound skills, a lot of people talk about being skilled in them, but they only have superficial knowledge. For genuine tuina and acupuncture skills, the doctors need to be skilled in qigong, using qi to improve blood circulation, using qi to apply the needles, only then can they be said to be expert skills! If nothing else, Frolics of the five animals by Hua Tuo is also a kung fu to recover and cultivate Qi.”
Qin Lang was not clutching at straws when he said this, as Old Poison’s successor, his academic achievements at traditional chinese medicine aspect was also equally deep. He knew a lot of famous chinese doctors in ancient times were proficient in skills of recovering and cultivating Qi. Cultivating Qi was not only to build a good physique and improve one’s health, it could also be used to treat the patients, because traditional Chinese doctors’ fundamentals were established on meridians and essence Qi.
“Listening to you speak, it seems as there is some logic…… then how come your detoxification and snakes manipulation skills are so amazing?”
“Eh…...that is because I am a very amazing doctor. And the reason why I am amazing is because I know skills like detoxification and snakes manipulations.”
“How can you control the snakes by whistling, don’t the snakes have poor hearing sense?”
“Having weak sense of hearing doesn’t mean they can’t hear at all, moreover I am not whistling, but rather making flute sounds.”
“What flute, can I have a look ……”
“.....”
