Chapter 153 Extra: Medical School Lecture...
"That's all for today's lecture. If you have any questions, please raise your hand."
Chen Yin pressed the button in her hand and changed the PPT to the last slide, indicating that the lecture was about to end.
After Huimintang became a traditional Chinese medicine inheritance and teaching base, Dongyu Medical University also struck while the iron was hot and actively invited Huimintang to become its school-enterprise cooperation base.
Chen Yin wants to carry forward Huimin Hall, so the training of the younger generation is naturally the top priority.
After careful consideration, she chose to become a part-time professor at Dongyu Medical University. She would teach graduate students at the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine on weekdays and occasionally hold lectures on traditional Chinese medicine for the entire school.
The most important thing is to be responsible for the practical guidance of a small number of graduate students, who practice medicine with her in the clinic.
The moment Chen Yin finished speaking, countless hands rose in the air and shook violently.
The familiar scene made her laugh and cry. She raised the corner of her mouth slightly, stretched out her hand and pointed at Ma Xiangyun who was the most excited in the second row.
"Come, Ma Xiangyun, ask."
Hearing this, the assistant standing in the audience skillfully turned on the spare microphone in his hand, walked quickly to Ma Xiangyun and handed the microphone to her.
"Student, please take it."
"Thank you!" Ma Xiangyun took the microphone excitedly, her eyes sparkling as she looked in Chen Yin's direction, and she was speechless for a moment.
She really couldn't believe that Professor Chen, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, actually remembered the name of an ordinary graduate student like her.
I think she felt that she had no medical background and her foundation was not as solid as other students, so she was always silent and unknown in class.
Does Professor Chen think I have potential?
With endless beautiful imagination, Ma Xiangyun was completely immersed in the gaze cast by Chen Yin.
Suddenly, there was a pulling noise coming from the waist. Ma Xiangyun woke up from the illusion. She looked down and saw that it was her roommate sitting next to her.
Jiang Jingchu didn't know what was wrong with Ma Xiangyun. Why didn't she say anything when she finally got the chance?
"Are you stupid? Ask quickly, ask quickly. If you waste any more time, you'll be pierced by the gazes of other students."
Ma Xiangyun was so frightened that her body trembled. She lowered her eyes and glanced to both sides, and sure enough, she saw the hostile gazes of everyone.
Professor Chen’s time is precious. Apart from teaching, he is basically not in school. If you have any questions, you don’t even have the chance to find him.
It’s so hard to get a lecture, it’s a rare opportunity to gain knowledge, and we can’t waste even a minute.
Ma Xiangyun quickly raised her head, held her head high and chest high, cleared her throat, regained her composure, and asked the question she was about to ask.
"Professor Chen, I really like the Huimintang Chen's Prescriptions and Medical Cases published by Huimintang. During my undergraduate internship, I often read through them and always gained a lot."
After regaining the honor of the Huimintang Chen family, she compiled her father's medical records and the ancient prescriptions passed down by her ancestors into a book the following year. Except for those listed as secret medicines, the rest were handed over to the Jingshi Publishing House for help in publishing.
Over the past twenty years, hundreds of thousands of copies have been published and reprinted, and it is normal for medical students to read them all.
Hearing this, Chen Yin nodded and motioned the other party to continue.
Sensing the signal, Ma Xiangyun continued.
One day, I was accompanying my teacher in the outpatient clinic and met a patient. He was in pain all over his body, especially in his flanks, which felt like electric shocks from time to time. His waist felt as if it was broken, and he had chills and fever like malaria. His pulse was stringy and thin, and his tongue was red with a thin white coating. There was a bruise on the left side.
"After questioning and understanding, I learned that the patient was depressed..."
"I recalled a book I'd read mentioning Fu Shan's theory of treating all kinds of pain in men with liver disease, which stated that once liver qi is relaxed, all pains will resolve on their own. So I took the risk of bringing this up with the clinician. After careful consideration, I decided to try a modified version of the Xiaoyao Powder mentioned in the book, but the effect was minimal."
"To this day, every time I think about it, I feel guilty. I still ask Professor Chen for guidance."
Ma Xiangyun spoke out all the thoughts in her mind at once, and it seemed as if everything in her heart was released at once, making her feel very happy.
She was very happy. The students who rushed to sit down in front followed her idea, their brows were connected into one, like a caterpillar.
Chen Yin gave everyone enough time to think and see if they could come up with anything.
Just as she was about to unravel the issue and describe it to everyone, someone suddenly raised their hand.
Her eyes lit up and Chen Yin immediately gestured.
"Okay! Please let Jiang Jingchu share his thoughts."
Ma Xiangyun took a look in surprise, and handed the microphone in joy.
At the same time, he lowered his voice and restrained his excitement, "If I had known you had an idea, I would have asked you. I don't even know how to teach in the outpatient clinic. How could I have thought of..."
In fact, Jiang Jingchu also felt guilty, and she couldn't think of how to treat the disease her roommate mentioned.
It was just that a light bulb went off in her head, and she suddenly remembered something she had read in some book.
"I'm sorry, Professor Chen, I don't know how to prescribe the right medicine either. I just remembered a sentence I read once: 'All stagnant qi belongs to the lung meridian.'"
Jiang Jingchu slowly dropped the subject and stared timidly into Chen Yin's eyes.
The next second, she clearly saw a smile in Professor Chen's eyes.
"That's right. Jiang Jingchu has already grasped one of the causes of the disease by thinking of this sentence."
In an instant, Jiang Jingchu's heart felt like fireworks bursting, heat rising, and he almost jumped up.
Others were thinking about that sentence, trying to figure out the mystery.
Chen Yin did not give everyone time to think further and explained all the subtleties.
"First of all, what Ma Xiangyun mentioned about 'treating all kinds of pain with the liver' is correct. This is especially true of the modified Xiaoyao Powder formula, which is incredibly effective in treating a variety of pains."
"However, the herbs used in this Xiaoyao Powder variation are mainly for clearing heat and removing dampness when treating pain. However, not all pains are caused by fire; wind, cold, dampness, and blood stasis can all cause pain."
After saying that, Chen Yin directly changed the PPT in front of her to the first one.
The four big words "Five Elements Dialectics" were clearly written on it.
Everyone's thoughts unconsciously followed Chen Yin's and began to think about the connection between the disease and the five elements.
But in a short period of time, few people can figure out the relationship.
Chen Yin did not keep the students in suspense and continued explaining, trying to make sure every student could hear clearly.
"The Neijing states: The liver resides on the left. Liver qi originates from the left, and the patient suffers from qi stagnation, resulting in left flank pain. Over time, this stagnation spreads to the right flank. The lungs control qi, descending from the right. The stagnant qi wants to be released but cannot, resulting in right flank pain. This is called bilateral flank pain."
"But when you, Ma Xiangyun, were treating the patient, you only considered the liver and ignored the lung meridian. This is what the ancients called 'mistaking metal for wood.'"
It was not until this moment that everyone suddenly realized the connection between emotions, the five elements, illness and treatment.
The liver belongs to wood and the lungs belong to metal.
Among the five elements, metal overcomes wood.
However, in this case, consistently raising the wood energy has caused the wood energy to become excessive and to insult the metal energy.
Chen Yin looked at the young heads nodding in the audience and felt that she herself had become a lot younger.
After everyone had digested what she had just said, she slowly explained the treatment method.
"So, in this case of flank pain, in addition to relieving liver stagnation, we also need to clear the lungs."
…
After one lecture, the students felt that they had benefited a lot and wanted to continue listening.
But they have been delaying for a long time, and if they delay any longer, the next lecture will start.
The classmates looked at Chen Yin's back reluctantly as she walked away.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of everyone, and everyone couldn't help but show envy and ambiguous eyes.
The freshmen who were attending the class for the first time were so excited that they almost screamed out loud, and the beautiful love story clips about Professor Chen that they had seen on the campus wall unconsciously emerged in their minds.
He didn't care about the occasion at all, and asked in a shrill voice, lowering his voice:
"Then, then, then...that's Professor Chen's lover—President Wen, right?"
It was no secret that Wen Nian always came to pick up Chen Yin after class. Almost every class of students had seen it.
As soon as she asked the question, a senior student immediately gave a positive answer.
"Yes, that's President Wen, Professor Chen's lover. Whenever Professor Chen finishes his get out of class, he'll always be waiting. He's never missed a class. I heard it's been almost twenty years."
"I'm so envious. When will I be able to meet a lover like this?"
"I also heard that Master Wen was worried that Teacher Chen would become so obsessed with medicine that he would forget about food and sleep, so he opened a herbal medicine hall. Wherever Teacher Chen goes, the hall will be there."
"I'm not greedy, I don't ask for a lover, as long as I can learn half of Professor Chen's medical skills."
“Isn’t this greedy?”
…
The group of people seemed to be provoked to talk about the love story of Chen Yin and Wen Nian.
