The Compendium of Materia Medica is the brainchild of Li Shizhen, a medical scientist of the Ming Dynasty, for more than 30 years. The book has a total of more than 1.9 million words, of which 1892 different drugs are recorded, divided into 60 categories. There are 374 drugs in the book that Li Shizhen later added through his own experiments.
The compendium of Materia Medica has more than 1,100 drawings and more than 11,000 ways to use herbs, but it can be said that it is a summary of thousands of years of pharmacology. At the same time, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" is not only a masterpiece in the field of pharmacology, but also an ancient encyclopedia. As Li Jianyuan pointed out in his "Compendium of Materia Medica": "From the tomb code to the legend, everything that is related is not collected, although it is destined to be a medical book, it should be physical." ”
There is such a junior high school student in Luzhou, Sichuan, who is usually particularly interested in medicinal materials, and usually combines some medicinal materials told by his grandmother with the information he searched on the Internet to hand-draw a "Compendium of Materia Medica".
His son's grades were not good, and Mr. Wang inspected his school bag and found a hand-drawn version of the cursive compendium
Mr. Wang of Luzhou, Sichuan Province, because his son who was in the first year of junior high school did not do well in the final exam, and wanted to take his son to reflect on the reasons for it, so he picked up his son's bag and wanted to start by checking the bag first. As a result, I found a small book of my 13-year-old son, on which the son hand-painted more than a dozen kinds of medicinal herbs, each with a detailed description and usage of the medicinal materials, and the leaf shape and ratio of the medicinal herbs were very restored.
Many netizens praised Mr. Wang's son as a modern "good seedling of Traditional Chinese Medicine", and also gave his small book the name of "Modern Edition of Hand-painted Herbal Compendium".
Mr. Wang himself is also a grassroots painter, although he usually likes to paint but has not taught children, it may also be a subtle influence, so his children also like to draw, but also like to listen to the old man to tell the story of medicinal materials and the methods of use, and record him in their own way, which is also a very rare thing.
Mr. Wang told us: "I just took a small video with my hand, and I didn't expect it to attract everyone's attention." ”
In addition, Mr. Wang has always been afraid of affecting the child's learning, so he does not support the child's own interests and hobbies, and the child is usually more introverted, and even a little afraid of Mr. Wang. After this incident, Mr. Wang decided to support the child's hobby in the future and no longer interfere too much, after all, it is not only good grades that are good.
Some things to say
As Mr. Wang said, because he did not like to study when he was a child, he thought of painting, so after leaving the society early, he found that he had no knowledge and could only rely on part-time work to solve the problem of food and clothing, so he used to think that his son should first go to knowledge, have an academic degree to gain a firm foothold in society, and then cultivate his own interests and hobbies.
But once people have interest, how can they stop it? Because Mr. Wang loves to draw, he went to Guangdong to work after graduating from junior high school, learning to paint while working. Later, taking advantage of the rise of the Internet, Mr. Wang gave up his part-time job and returned to his hometown to make live painting his main career. Usually, I am also busy with live broadcasting and rarely communicate with children in this regard.
Children also because they like Chinese medicine, like to draw and start to teach themselves, but also can be regarded as a child's simple hobby, do not do too much obstruction. Every child is a different talent, and only with hobbies can they be motivated. Mr. Wang's children draw well, write well, and are interested in Chinese herbal medicine, cultivate well, and may also be talents in the field of Chinese medicine in the future.
However, Mr. Wang's mind is still sober, thinking that he should first grasp the study of the current cultural class, but he will not erase the child's interests and hobbies, and let him go with the flow.
After seeing Mr. Wang's video, some netizens thought that Mr. Wang's inspection of the school bag was not done correctly. Because a child who is in junior high school has a very sensitive heart and self-esteem, checking his school bag can be said to be an invasion of the child's privacy. Just like the diary I wrote with my heart when I was a child and was peeked at by my parents, this is not a commendable thing.
