On the land of Shandong, there is an old doctor with ninety zeros, and his medical skills are so high that he has nothing to say. Since the age of eighteen, he has been fiddling with medicine jars, and in more than 70 years, there is nothing he does not know about internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, and pediatrics.
The amazing thing is that this old man never uses any equipment to see a doctor, just relying on three fingers, he can get to the bottom of the patient's illness, and as soon as the medicine is prescribed, the quasi-guaranteed medicine will be eliminated.
What's even more admirable is that his number fee has been the same for decades, only 27 yuan. Even if the dean approached him to discuss raising the price, he would not agree to a hundred of them, and he was afraid that those poor people would not be sick because they had no money.
This is Zhang Zhiyuan, a well-known Chinese medicine doctor in Shandong. You may ask, what is his medical skills, how did he develop this ability? There is a story in this.
Three fingers to explore the mystery?
Traditional Chinese medicine, that is the treasure handed down from ancient times in China, thousands of years of medical wisdom, and the brainchild of generations of ancestors.
When it comes to Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan, he is a well-known national treasure in the Chinese medicine industry.
学问大得去了，人家都叫他“活字典”。
He has a hand in seeing a doctor, especially the unique skill of checking the pulse with one hand, which is miraculous.
Other doctors have to rely on those bells and whistles of modern equipment to find out where the root cause of the disease is. But Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan is different, he can clearly feel the things in the patient's stomach with his unique "three-finger magic power". Those headaches that can't be solved by spending a lot of money to run all over the Western medicine clinics, in Mr. Zhang's case, three fingers and a pulse, the crux of the problem immediately appeared. However, this seemingly easy diagnosis has caused people around to talk about it and be skeptical.
Who would have thought that the patient who had the mentality of "dead horse right to be a live horse doctor" would magically disappear after swallowing three doses of Chinese medicine. The most touching thing is that each dose of medicine is only a few dozen yuan, and people are not only amazed, but also sincerely admired this medical skill.
The patient had a foreign body in his uterus, but Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan did not need to rely on those complicated modern instruments, and only with three fingers lightly touching the pulse, he could see the condition clearly and clearly.
The face is as white as paper, and he is riddled with severe anemia, and the patients have traveled all over the north and south, asking for medicine and seeking medical treatment to no avail.
Just when despair filled his heart, Zhang Zhiyuan's traditional Chinese medicine casually mentioned by his friend became that glimmer of hope, and the patient waded through mountains and rivers, sparing thousands of miles, just asking for safety.
Who would have thought that Mr. Zhang would know the root cause of the disease with three fingers, and he would know the root cause of the disease, the traditional Chinese medicine conditioning, and the medical skills, and the patient's incurable diseases were well organized.
In Mr. Zhang's view, there is no incurable disease, as long as the pulse is cut accurately and the medication is just right, the stubborn disease will naturally retreat, and the medicine will not be difficult unless the disease is treated.
The years have passed, but Mr. Zhang has become more and more clear, and his medical skills have become more and more perfect, and the name of the master is like a wing, flying all over the world.
There was an endless stream of people from all over the world, all coming for his fame. Mr. Zhang relied on the amazing "three-finger diagnosis method" to prescribe the right medicine, which was so accurate that it was convincing.
As the saying goes, Chinese medicine can only be chronically regulated, saying that the efficacy of Chinese medicine is slow, and the treatment of diseases is like a thread, these misunderstandings of Chinese medicine have all been broken to the point in Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan!
His method of seeing a doctor is called a unique one, at first everyone will be skeptical, but later, everyone can't help but shout "Emma, it's so fragrant"!
Think about it, with three fingers on your wrist, you can compare those high-tech instruments and find out the mysteries of the human body, where can ordinary people do?
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan, who grew up in the influence of his elders practicing medicine and saving people, has grown up in his bones. In his opinion, a true healer must keep medical ethics in his heart and never forget it.
Mr. Zhang is not only a doctor with benevolence, he is also famous at Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and has taught many excellent students.
The dean asked for a higher registration fee, but Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan waved his hand and refused to agree. His class, not only the world of his own students, but also other colleges, outside the campus, and even those professors and adults who are on the job, can't hold back their curiosity, and they come to listen one after another, and every time it is crowded, and the seats are full of people. In the face of these eyes thirsty for knowledge, Mr. Zhang willingly taught his housekeeping skills one by one, and his selflessness was really admirable.
Doctors, they have to open their hearts, take out the housekeeping skills, don't hide them, and don't engage in that set of rigid rules, so that the true meaning of medicine can spread all over the world.
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan is notoriously strict with his apprentices, but he is even more ruthless with himself. Since he was young, he has been running around the country all over the country to seek advice from those famous doctors, and since then, he has developed a habit - handwritten notes.
Today, there are more than 100,000 reading cards left by Mr. Zhang, the number of words in the notes is 20 million, the manuscripts are piled up, they must weigh hundreds of pounds, and the published papers are as many as 400. Hey, this perseverance and diligence are really admirable.
With one stroke, he sketched out "Commentary on the Characters of the Medical Forest", "The Story of the Characters of the Medical Forest", and explored "Zhang Zhiyuan's Medical Treatise on Tanli" in simple terms. And the book "The Origin of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Examination of Famous Figures", which took him 40 years of hard work and grinded out word by word, has influenced half of the Chinese medicine industry.
The years are unforgiving, and the years of pen and ink have made his hands bent in the twilight of his life. But he still stubbornly guarded this handwritten intention, insisting on leaving traces of wisdom on the manuscript paper.
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan, even though he has become a leader in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, the original intention of the doctor has never changed, he adheres to benevolence and benevolence, and does not forget the fundamentals.
Faced with the dilemma of "difficult to see a doctor" among the villagers, his registration fee has been the same for many years, and it has always been the 27 yuan that is close to the people.
The dean had consulted him many times, saying whether he should raise the registration fee, but Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan was always worried that this mention would make those poor people even more despised, so he resolutely refused to let go.
As the years go by, even though he is in his old age, he still sticks to his post rain or shine, and visits patients for patients, which is admirable.
"Patients can't wait", this is the iron law of Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan's practice of medicine for many years.
In the past 73 years, from the first step of going to the clinic alone to the last moment of sticking to his post, he has really vividly interpreted the hearts of the doctor's parents.
Mr. Zhang, who is more than 90 years old, is still energetic, walking with a cane and a steady pace, he has always been at the forefront of saving lives and helping the wounded.
In that small corner of Dezhou, Shandong, Zhang Zhiyuan's name, as soon as it is mentioned, everyone will nod and praise: if he is ranked second, then the first name, I am afraid that no one will dare to take it. Born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, he is not only obsessed with the ancient medical skills, but also regards the inheritance of medical principles as his life's mission.
Since childhood, Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan has been under the influence of his elders, and he has a soft spot for traditional Chinese medicine, and that enthusiasm seems to be innate. With his superior intelligence and hard work, he knocked on the door of Chinese medicine.
As the years go by, Mr. Zhang not only has become more and more exquisite in medical skills, but also reads poetry and books, and dabbles in scriptures, history, children, and collections, covering everything. He has his own set of opinions on the study of Yi Xue, and the depth and breadth are admirable.
In those years, suffering and wind and frost followed closely like a pair of indispersible ghosts. The thousand-year-old wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine has also been tormented in turmoil, and the road to inheritance has been bumpy. The import of Western medicine is like a sudden storm, violently impacting the foundation of Chinese medicine.
At that time, many TCM colleagues, under the pressure and hardships of life, gradually let go of their former attachments, turned to the arms of Western medicine, and sought a new way of medicine. Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan also lost his way at this fork in the road, and his heart was uncertain.
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan, although he also had the idea of studying in the West and studying Western medicine in his heart, the love for Chinese medicine in his bones helped him shatter all kinds of doubts and difficulties in the world. He not only likes Chinese medicine, but also appreciates and respects it, and he regards it as a precious heritage left to us by our ancestors, a thousand-year-old wisdom that has been passed down in the same vein.
In this world, China is the only country that has inherited a thousand-year-old culture, and this unique culture of traditional Chinese medicine is worthy of each of us to be proud of.
As the years passed, Mr. Zhang gradually realized that the knowledge he gained from books alone was superficial after all.
If you want to truly understand the essence of traditional Chinese medicine handed down by our ancestors, you have to get started in person and try medicine by yourself.
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan made up his mind that he had to use live cases to sharpen his medical skills, and those medical theories that he couldn't understand had to be slowly sorted out in practice.
In this way, Mr. Zhang was alone, packed his bags, and left his familiar hometown.
He traveled lightly and simply, went through the ups and downs of the world, and also took this opportunity to meet countless celebrities in the field of Chinese medicine.
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan, who is a legend in the Chinese medicine circle, has made moves and exchanged experiences with Chinese medicine masters from all walks of life, which is really sparks and wonderful. These collisions and frictions made him accumulate a stomach full of healing skills.
He is eclectic, learns from others, picks out those shortcomings in traditional Chinese medicine to make up, and is stunned to repair the old craft of traditional Chinese medicine more perfectly.
Mr. Zhang is not satisfied with the set handed down by his ancestors, on the basis of ancient prescriptions and ancient methods, he has integrated his own unique understanding of various medical techniques, broken the traditional treatment frame, and advocated that Chinese medicine should also keep pace with the times and make bold innovations.
He recorded his medical experience in this life stroke by stroke, so that the knowledge of Chinese medicine, starting from him, is no longer a rigid dogma, but full of vitality and vitality.
However, in the process, I have gradually accumulated a wealth of experience. At first, I only had a little experience with gynecological and pediatric diseases, but gradually, I was able to handle both intractable and incurable diseases and chronic diseases.
Not only did I follow and improve the ancient medical secrets, but I was able to cure the disease, but also allowed Zhang Zhiyuan to practice an unrivaled "three-finger supernatural power".
By taking the pulse, he can gain insight into whether yin and yang are in harmony and whether qi and blood are in harmony; from the strength, rhythm, and depth of the pulse, he can infer the functional state of the patient's internal organs; and by looking at the complexion of the face and the coating of the tongue, he can understand the ins and outs of the disease.
In the medical field, his unique ability to diagnose diseases, if he wants to be the second, I am afraid that no one will dare to arrogantly claim the first.
In the hot June of 2017, Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan was awarded the title of "Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine" jointly issued by the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, and the National Health and Family Planning Commission.
However, life is always full of impermanence. The old saying "It is difficult for a doctor to heal himself" has also been fulfilled in Mr. Zhang. On November 7, 2017, this 98-year-old gentleman passed away in Jinan, and his departure was like a withered leaf in the autumn wind, which made people sigh.
On September 29, 2019, although Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan has left us, his contribution will always be remembered - he was posthumously awarded the "National Award for Outstanding Contribution to Traditional Chinese Medicine", this honor, just like the fire that burned for the cause of Chinese medicine during his lifetime, will always illuminate the way for future generations.
Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan, who has been rooted in the soil all his life and weaved a story with his years, has confirmed to the world that "practice is the only criterion for testing truth". The wind, frost, rain and snow of his life are not only written on the wrinkles on his face, but also integrated into his undoubted insistence on Chinese medicine, and eliminated those misunderstandings and prejudices about Chinese medicine one by one.
He always said that to be a doctor, you must put benevolence and benevolence into practice, so that the thousand-year-old tree of traditional Chinese medicine can bear sweet fruits that benefit mankind, and the wisdom passed down by the ancestors will be carefully held in your hands and passed on......
The story of Mr. Zhang Zhiyuan is like the old wine, the more you taste it, the more you taste it. Are you also moved in front of the screen? You might as well leave a few words of yours and let's talk about it......
