The whole family traveled through time and became doctors, raised children and farmed in ancient tim

Doctor Sun raised his eyebrows and nodded, and said with a hint of inquiry in his tone: "Okay, then I'll test you."

Why am I testing you again? Xie Wanxing frowned. She was very familiar with this phrase. When Mr. Yu first met her, he also said, "I'm testing you."

But she still nodded and said, "Doctor Sun, please go ahead."

Doctor Sun asked, "If someone catches a cold, and at the onset has fever, chills, headache, body aches, and a stuffy nose and runny nose, what medicine do you think should be used to treat it?"

Xie Wanxing thought for a moment and said, "For this initial onset of wind-cold symptoms, we can use a pungent and warming method to dispel the exterior. Mahuang Decoction is a more appropriate treatment. In Mahuang Decoction, ephedra can induce sweating and dispel the exterior, promoting lung function and relieving asthma; cinnamon twig can relieve muscles and release exterior qi, helping ephedra induce sweating; apricot kernel can descend and benefit lung qi, and when combined with ephedra, one can promote qi and the other can descend, enhancing the asthma-relieving effect; and roasted licorice is used to harmonize the various herbs, making their effects more moderate. This combination can dispel the wind-cold and relieve the symptoms."

Doctor Sun had originally been looking at Xie Wanxing with scrutiny, but after hearing Xie Wanxing's answer, his eyes were filled with surprise and approval. He couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh, "Haha, good, great answer! This one is pretty easy, I'll ask you something more difficult!"

Doctor Sun pondered for a moment, his expression becoming more serious. He then slowly asked, "Suppose there is an elderly man who has always been weak and has recently been struck by damp-heat. He presents with fever, worse in the afternoon, abdominal distension, heaviness in the limbs, a sticky and bitter taste in the mouth, scanty and dark urine, constipation, a red tongue with a greasy yellow coating, and a weak and rapid pulse. What do you think should be done to treat him, and what medicine should be used?"

After hearing the description of the symptoms, Xie Wanxing frowned slightly and thought quickly in his mind. This involved a weak constitution and damp-heat evil. When using the medicine, one must take into account both strengthening the body and eliminating the evil, and not neglect one for the other.

After a moment, she slowly spoke, "Doctor Sun, Wanxing believes this condition should be treated by clearing heat and dampness, strengthening the spleen and replenishing Qi. You can use Ganlu Xiaodu Dan combined with Sijunzi Tang with modifications. In Ganlu Xiaodu Dan, herbs like talc, wormwood, and scutellaria can clear heat and dampness, while herbs like patchouli, calamus, and white cardamom can add fragrance and resolve turbidity, which can dissolve the damp heat."

"In Sijunzi Decoction, ginseng, white atractylodes, poria cocos, and licorice can strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, improving the frailty of the elderly. The combination of these two prescriptions, with additions and subtractions, can both dispel dampness and heat and replenish vital energy, thus alleviating symptoms."

Doctor Sun's eyes lit up with surprise after hearing this. He nodded repeatedly and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that at such a young age, you have such clear ideas about the symptoms and precise use of medicine. This really impressed me. You've memorized the medicinal properties very well and your prescriptions are excellent."

"Do you know acupuncture?" Doctor Sun's eyes were filled with curiosity.

Xie Wanxing pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I only stabbed myself."

"Oh? You really can do it? Then why don't you try it on me?" Doctor Sun looked happy, with some encouragement in his eyes.

Xie Wanxing was stunned: "Doctor Sun, this is inappropriate..."

Doctor Sun said nonchalantly, "It's okay, don't worry. Feel free to try. I'm still strong and healthy. Even if your acupuncture skills are a little rusty, it won't be a big problem. Just think of it as letting me see your skills. Don't be afraid, come on."

Xie Wanxing thought to herself that she had never really shown acupuncture in front of anyone. Now that Doctor Sun offered to let her try acupuncture, it might be an opportunity. After all, she would definitely have to return to her old profession in the future. She would always have to show her medical skills in front of everyone and make a name for herself. She wouldn't keep it hidden forever.

If I could take this opportunity to ask him for some advice, then when others ask me about it in the future, I could attribute all the credit to Doctor Sun.

"Okay, then I'll try." Xie Wanxing responded softly, then lowered her head and rummaged through the bag she was carrying. She actually took out a set of needles. The needles looked very delicate, with a faint luster in the sunlight, and each one was neatly placed.

Doctor Sun had already reached into the medicine box to get a needle, but when he saw Xie Wanxing's move, he paused, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He really didn't expect that this little girl would carry a needle with her when she went out. It seemed that she was being modest just because she had learned it.

Doctor Sun couldn't help but feel a little more hopeful about Xie Wanxing. He smiled and joked, "Girl, you're carrying a needle with you when you go out?"

Xie Wanxing wanted to laugh but held it back because she was still carrying the big villa with her.

"Your acupuncture is quite good," Doctor Sun said. "Try giving me two needles at Laogong, Yangchi, and Houxi."

As he spoke, he carefully observed Xie Wanxing's expression, wanting to see if this little girl could really find these acupoints accurately.

Xie Wanxing nodded slightly. She first wiped and disinfected the silver needle, then gently held Doctor Sun's hand. Her fingers gently rubbed Doctor Sun's palm and soon found the Laogong point. The Laogong point is located in the palm of the hand, between the second and third metacarpal bones, slightly towards the third metacarpal bone, at the tip of the middle finger when making a fist.

She steadily inserted the silver needle into the acupuncture point. The movement was light and precise, and the silver needle was inserted smoothly.

Next was the Yangchi acupoint, which is located in the transverse line on the back of the wrist, in the depression on the ulnar edge of the extensor digitorum common tendon. She picked up a silver needle again, carefully found the angle, and slowly inserted it. The whole process was like flowing water, and the silver needle was inserted into the acupoint accurately and without error. Doctor Sun could even feel the calmness and confidence in her technique.

Houxi acupoint is on the ulnar side of the palm. Make a fist slightly and insert the last silver needle into the Houxi acupoint at the junction of the red and white flesh at the distal end of the transverse palmar crease behind the little finger joint. Xie Wanxing gently turned Doctor Sun's hand so that the back of the hand was facing up.

Doctor Sun had originally been trying to test her, but now his face was filled with surprise. He looked at Xie Wanxing and couldn't help but admire her, "Girl, you've pierced every acupuncture point so precisely. It's not easy."

Xie Wanxing raised his head with a shy smile on his face: "Thank you, Doctor Sun, but my acupuncture skills may still be a bit clumsy, I still need to learn more from you."

Doctor Sun waved his hand, his eyes revealing sincere admiration for Xie Wanxing, and said, "You've done very well. Although these acupuncture points are not particularly complicated, the fact that you can find them so accurately shows that you have learned well."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if lost in memories, and continued with a hint of joking in his tone, "Back then, when I was your age, I was still memorizing herbs by rote. I memorized the names, appearances, and effects of the herbs, and then forgot them again and again. It took me a lot of effort to barely remember them. Unlike you, you not only recognize the herbs well, but you can also grasp the acupuncture points so accurately. It's truly amazing."

At this point, Doctor Sun once again carefully examined Xie Wanxing. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that the child was extremely intelligent. He immediately said, "Little boy, you are truly a promising candidate for medical studies. I have been practicing medicine for many years and have seen many young people, but I have never seen anyone as talented as you."

Doctor Sun paused for a moment, his eyes growing more eager as he continued, "Would you like to learn from me? While I wouldn't claim to be the pinnacle of medical skill, I do have decades of experience. If you follow me, I will teach you everything I've learned."
