Chapter 234 Traditional Chinese Medicine PK Korean Medicine

On this day! When the whole country of China celebrates the Lantern Festival together, in order to avoid the passive situation of traditional Chinese medicine cultural heritage being declared first by other countries, Wu Tianlin had no choice but to go with William and Lipsu on this particularly important day of the Lantern Festival to take a plane to Seoul, South Korea to participate in the competition that he had made an appointment with Korean traditional Chinese medicine practitioners before the New Year.

Seoul (Seoul) is located in the middle of the Korean Peninsula, lower than the Han River, about 30 kilometers away from the west coast of the Korean Peninsula. It is the capital of the Republic of Korea and is a political, economic and cultural center.

After more than two hours of flight, the plane arrived in Seoul on time at around 10 o'clock in the morning. This city, known as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, when Wu Tianlin logged in and walked out of the airport, first of all, he felt that ancient and modern had a perfect combination here. Wu Tianlin and the other two sat in a car sent by the Korean Medical Research Institute to the city from the airport and looked at the scenery outside the car window. The streets and various buildings of the entire city were built with the undulating terrain. A wide street, a rush of people passing by, a constant flow of traffic, a row of tall buildings, ancient palaces, the beautiful blue Han River, the towering Nanshan, and the bustling commercial streets reflected a strong modern atmosphere and a vigorous vitality. If it weren't for the Korean doctor's application for a World Heritage Site this time, he would probably fall in love with the city soon.

Although the Korean medicine applied for a World Heritage site to anger Wu Tianlin, behind the anger Wu Tianlin was also saddened by the current situation of Chinese traditional medicine in China. As we all know, the cultural influence of ancient China spread across the surrounding areas and had a wide and huge impact on South Korea, Japan and other countries, forming a "Chinese character cultural circle" centered on China and radiating around neighbors. Neighboring countries never deny the influence of Chinese culture on them. In a sense, Chinese traditional culture has been mixed with the daily etiquette and historical heritage of these countries. It can be said that Qin bricks and Han tiles construct the cornerstone of East Asian civilization, and the Tang style and Song rain have also been immersed in the ancient classics of East Asian countries. However, as time goes by, Chinese people began to worship foreign cultures and ignore the ancient cultures they have existed.

Traditional Chinese medicine is a typical example. During the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were about 50,000 registered Chinese medicine in China. Now in the 21st century, it is still 50,000. Judging from the data alone, traditional Chinese medicine has not grown at all, and there is no reserve force. Since Mr. De and Mr. Sai came to China, Chinese people seem to be superstitious about metaphysical Western medicine. Although it is okay to absorb other people's good things, because Wu Tianlin himself is also a combination of Chinese and Western medicine, it should not be. It is absolutely not necessary. The people should not put the essence of Chinese medicine aside. According to this situation, traditional Chinese medicine can be simply

Without any development, let’s look at the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine families in China. They have various secret recipes, but at present they are just for the interests of their respective families and have never thought about promoting traditional Chinese medicine. This time, the Korean doctor Shen Shi also stood up for the interests of their respective families and shouted a few protests, but there was no further information. Also, what is the so-called Chinese medicine college teaching now? They are simply learning Western medicine. Strictly speaking, traditional Chinese medicine does not teach. In this case of lack of reserve power, Wu Tianlin is sure that China will be getting further and further away from traditional Chinese medicine!

Looking at South Korea, since traditional Chinese medicine was introduced to South Korea, it has been protected and praised in South Korea, and naturally developed. After absorbing and learning, they put forward new ideas and then formed their own unique things. Thinking of this, Wu Tianlin asked himself countless times: "Why doesn't China develop and utilize and explore its own cultural essence, so that the whole world can follow China, but follow others' butts? Follow Western culture?"

Traditional Chinese medicine is a system explored by the ancestors of China in thousands of years of medical practice. Its vitality lasts for thousands of years. Although there are shortcomings, many people do not reflect on the shortcomings of traditional Chinese medicine, but instead say that they will abolish traditional Chinese medicine. This attitude towards traditional culture is very disappointing, so Wu Tianlin is even more determined to vigorously promote traditional Chinese medicine culture so that the new medical idea that combines traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine can one day be recognized by people all over the world.

At around 11 o'clock in the morning, when Wu Tianlin and his friends came to the Seoul Hotel, several professors from the Korean Medical Research Institute immediately came forward. One of the elderly middle-aged men shook hands with a smile on their faces and said politely: "Dr. William! Hello! Half a year has passed since the last time we parted in Sweden. We welcome you to our Republic of Korea."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, a Korean translator standing beside him immediately translated the middle-aged man's words. William shook hands with the other party and heard the translator's words, he politely said: "Professor Park! Hello! Let me introduce you to me. This is my teacher, Mr. Wu Tianlin. He is the holy hand you have always wanted to know. This is my colleague and Doctor Lipsi of the Brotherhood."

When Professor Park heard the translator's words, he immediately showed a surprised expression on his face, looked at Wu Tianlin with incredible face, and quickly stretched out his hand and said enthusiastically and politely: "Hello Mr. Saint Hand! Hello! I am Park Yong-tae. Welcome to the beautiful Republic of Korea. I have been hearing Daming for a long time. I have always hoped to see you and discuss academic knowledge with you. However, when I arrived in Sweden last time, I learned that you had left Sweden. I regretted this time. I didn't expect that this time I would be lucky to see you because of the application of a World Heritage Site for Korean Medicine. Here I would like to welcome you to our Republic of Korea for academic exchanges on behalf of all the professors of our Korean Medicine Research Institute of the Republic of Korea."

Hearing the translator's self-introduction, Wu Tianlin understood that Professor Park was one of the initiators of the Korean medicine application for the World Heritage, but he did not hit the smiley person, so Wu Tianlin shook hands with the other party politely and said with a smile: "Professor Park! Hello! Since I saw the news that the Korean medicine applied for the World Cultural Heritage, I have always wanted to meet the Korean medicine colleagues who have carried forward our Chinese medical skills. Traditional Chinese medicine was introduced to North Korea from the 2nd century AD.

It merged with traditional medicine at that time and developed into the mainstream of Korean medicine, and was widely used among the North Korean people, and gradually developed into traditional Korean medicine with ethnic characteristics, and was preparing to apply for a World Heritage Site. I admire this very much, so I dared to come to South Korea on behalf of our Chinese medical community to discuss with all the colleagues in the medical community to see if our traditional Chinese medicine has really declined, and even if we even have to use the World Heritage Site to apply for a World Heritage Site."

Park Yong-tae heard the translator repeat Wu Tianlin's words as if he had turned out to be, and his face immediately turned pale and red. He was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer. The Koreans behind him were even more angry. If it weren't for being in public now, several people would have exploded.

Park Yong-tae is a singular figure after all. He quickly walked out of embarrassment and embarrassment, changed the topic and said hello to Hui Lipsu on the side: "Hui Lipsu Doctor! Welcome to our Republic of Korea."

He didn't expect that his teacher would let the other party get out of Taiwan in person. However, he was already very convinced of traditional Chinese medicine and naturally supported the teacher's actions. So when he heard the other party's words, he immediately replied with a smile: "Professor Park! I have heard of the name of the Korean Medical Research Institute of your country for a long time. Your country's medical skills are integrated with the strengths of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and they are unique. I admire the spirit of your medical colleagues. At the same time, I admire your spirit of applying for a World Heritage Site. But I have a small suggestion here. I wonder if Professor Park is interested in listening?"

After hearing the translator translated the words of Hui Lipsu, Park Yongtai thought that the other party's words would undoubtedly give him a chance to step down. He quickly replied with a smile: "Doctor Hui Lipsu! You are a famous doctor in the Swedish medical field. If you have any good suggestions, please say it."

Hearing this, Hui Lipus flashed a smile in his eyes and said, "Professor Park! It is understandable that South Korea wants to be the world's number one in many places. If a country has improved economically, it must find historical and cultural heritage for its own strength and rise. I understand your psychology very well. However, I am very puzzled by you, saying that "Yan Emperor, Chi You, Kuafu, etc. in China are all derived from South Korea. Now, you use the "Eastern Medical Treasure Mirror" to apply for a World Heritage Site. I think you are not prepared very well. I remember that Korean medicine was originally named Han medicine, right? The "Eastern Medical Treasure Mirror" used by Korean medicine to apply for a World Heritage Site this time was originally written in Chinese characters. Later, when Han medicine was changed to Korean medicine, "Eastern Medical Treasure Mirror" was also changed from Chinese characters to Korean. Now

You use the Eastern Medical Treasure Archive to apply for a World Heritage. Actually, I think it is difficult to change people's idea that Korean medicine is passed on to traditional Chinese medicine. So I suggest you can also modify "System Biology", then write a new biology, and apply for a World Heritage together with the Eastern Medical Treasure Archive. This will fully reflect the aliens of your Korean medicine. Otherwise, there is no convincing at all. You must know that "Eastern Medical Treasure Archive" has only been written for more than 390 years, and "Inner Canon" and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" will take far more than this period. Most of the contents in "Eastern Medical Treasure Archive" are from "Inner Canon" and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases". In this way, people with discerning eyes will not believe in Korean medicine. Therefore, if Korean medicine wants to apply to become a World Heritage, they must take a shortcut, and maybe they can really succeed."

When the Korean translator's face turned extremely ugly when he heard Lipsu's words, Park Yong-tae knew that Lipsu must have said very ugly words. However, when they heard the translator translated Lipsu's words, Park Yong-tae and several Korean medical scholars' smiles that had just appeared on their faces were instantly frozen. Park Yong-tae did not expect that a foreigner who spoke straightforwardly would even mock them around the bush, causing his anger that had been suppressed before to rise again. His tone of speech was no longer as polite as before. Instead, he said coldly: "I admit that the Chinese medical system and its contribution to Asian medical culture.

But it does not mean that our Korean medicine is the backbone of Chinese traditional medicine. Although our Korean medicine has developed late, it has gathered the research results of generations of medical experts in the Republic of Korea. It is natural for us to apply for World Heritage. Isn’t gunpowder invented by China? But it seems that the real development of gunpowder has nothing to do with China! So should those countries that use gunpowder in various fields also become side branches of China? Our Republic of Korea is a country of etiquette, so I personally feel sad that the Chinese people’s childishness, impetuousness and panic that is extremely disproportionate to the history of civilization when applying for our Korean medicine to the world cultural heritage."

Wu Tianlin didn't expect that Lipsu would say such words to anger the other party. He waited for the translator to translate the other party's words with anger, and then he realized that the other party would directly attack the people of China after being sarcasted by Lipsu. This made Wu Tianlin, who was already very angry about the application of the Korean doctor for World Heritage, also became angry, and his tone became extremely unkind and said in an extremely unkind manner: "95% of the contents of "Eastern Medical Treasure Mirror" were compiled from traditional Chinese medicine works, not original, so he called it the general

The work that concludes the essence of "Korean Medicine" is completely ignoring the truth of history. Its accurate positioning is the integrated Chinese medicine reading book compiled by a Korean after learning traditional Chinese medicine. As for the gunpowder you just mentioned, Professor Park, I think your idea is wrong. From magnetic polarity to botany, from biochemistry to immunity, and from agriculture to metallurgy, many of them are inventions and creations of Chinese people, like gunpowder and acupuncture, and spread all over the world to benefit mankind. But later, these scientific and technological aspects are in all aspects.

However, the West is leading, while China is relatively backward. We admit that this is, but countries around the world also recognize that these things were invented by China. Unlike you, the Republic of Korea, a book of 95% of the contents is compiled from the "Eastern Medical Treasure Mirror" written by traditional Chinese medicine, blatantly tampered with traditional Chinese medicine into Korean medicine and applied for a world heritage site. There is an essential difference between the two. The UNESCO World Heritage Protection Convention is not a "cultural trademark registration law", its intention is to confirm the

Traditional cultural relics confirm their protection responsibilities. If you apply for a World Heritage because of the long history of this book, I agree very much. However, if you want to borrow the World Heritage declaration to tamper with a certain period of history, it is absolutely impossible. Now the two people are quarreling about this matter. I think it is completely meaningless for us to have a war of words here. As for whether traditional Chinese medicine is orthodox or whether Korean medicine becomes a world heritage, we should see the truth!"

An originally harmonious welcome party ended in a cold show. At noon, Wu Tianlin and others had a short rest in the hotel and took a bus to the South Korean Medical Research Institute, the competition location.

Although the competition was not made public, several authoritative officials of the United Nations Health Organization received an invitation from Wu Tianlin to come to South Korea to serve as the referee of the competition. At the same time, in order to reflect the fairness and fairness of the competition, the World Health Organization recommended the Clinical Guidelines for Acupuncture for 43 diseases as the guidelines. Ten patients were selected by officials of the United Nations Health Organization, and then by drawing lots, both sides selected one patient for each other, and used acupuncture to treat it. The use of any medicine was eliminated during the treatment process, and the competition was held on the principle that the quickest and most effective cure the patient as the final victory condition.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, after drawing lots, the other party helped Wu Tianlin choose a patient with acute conjunctivitis, while Wu Tianlin helped the other party randomly select a patient with dysentery.

Acute inflammation of the conjunctiva, known as "red eye disease", occurs in people with good sanitary conditions. It is caused by viruses, bacteria or allergies. It is characterized by obvious conjunctiva congestion and accompanied by purulent secretions. It also has symptoms such as foreign body sensation, burning and tingling, mild photophobia, but the vision is not affected. The secretions can be blood-colored, and the off-white membrane can be seen on the conjunctiva of the eyelids. Although this disease is a minor disease, it is highly contagious and the normal treatment cycle is relatively long. Therefore, it is undoubtedly challenging for ordinary doctors to cure it with acupuncture.

When the bell rang at the beginning of the game, the Korean representatives of the game had already used acupuncture to rescue the patient. Wu Tianlin was slow and serious about the patient's eyes. Then he picked up the silver needles used for the game from the table, and luck and health care skills. He quickly stabbed the eight silver needles in his hand at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye. Then, using the silver needles as a bridge, he used health care skills to operate again and again in the patient's eyes, forcing all the bacteria and sticky secretions in the patient's eyes to the eyes. When he felt that the viruses in the patient's eyes were almost cleaned, he exhaled and instantly forced the health care skills into the patient's eyes.

A large amount of sticky secretions and tears flowed out of the patient's eyes in an instant, and gradually the originally turbid cornea instantly returned to its previous brightness. When Wu Tianlin used a cotton ball to clean up all the sticky secretions in front of the patient's eyes and pulled out the silver needle from the acupuncture point next to the patient's eyes, the whole process was only a few minutes. The patient showed a surprise expression on his face, nodding and bowing to Wu Tianlin, thanking him constantly. At the same time, the official in charge of the referee of the United Nations Health Organization immediately conducted some relevant examinations on the patient. It is best to announce that Wu Tianlin's treatment was successful when the South Korean side was still treating the person they were responsible for.

Although acute conjunctivitis is not a serious disease, it takes time to cure this disease. In order to win this game, South Korea not only sent their doctors with the highest acupuncture level, but also made sufficient preparations. Therefore, when South Korea saw that Wu Tianlin was a patient with acute conjunctivitis, South Korea thought that this game must be unsurprising. The legendary holy hand was destined to end in a crushing defeat, but who knew that the game would end in just a few minutes. The holy hand actually cured acute conjunctivitis easily in just a few minutes, which caught South Korea feels off guard.

When Wu Tianlin declared himself a winner when the World Health Organization judges declared himself a winner, his face never changed. He said calmly: "To be honest, I personally admire Korean doctors' research on traditional Chinese medicine, and I admire the Korean people even more. However, although traditional Chinese medicine does not receive enough attention in China, it does not mean that everyone can tamper with the history of traditional Chinese medicine. So I hope the Korean medical community can truly view this history. At the same time, doctors from our two countries can also conduct medical exchanges frequently.

To benefit all mankind, of course, if some people want to erase this history, then I have nothing to say. After all, I represent only me personally, so when the facts are better than words, I can only regretfully include the people who infringe on the interests of traditional Chinese medicine as people who are not welcomed by my Saint Hand Medical Team." After Wu Tianlin finished speaking, regardless of whether the Korean doctors present had a frustrated face to understand what he said, shook hands with several UN Health Organization officials who were responsible for being referees, and then left the competition venue.

When Wu Tianlin took William and Hui Lipsi away, the doctors present who were still incredible about the scene in front of them stood up from their seats and quickly ran to the patient with acute conjunctivitis cured by Wu Tianlin, and carefully examined the patient's condition.

Park Yongtai carefully observed the needle eyes left around the patient's eyes. Except for a few differences, there were no differences in other places from the acupuncture points they applied. He was very clear about the situation of this patient with acute conjunctivitis. Obviously, the other party just used acupuncture method that they had never been exposed to before, so Wu Tianlin cured the patient with acute conjunctivitis in just a few minutes, which exceeded his research on traditional Chinese medicine. His understanding of acupuncture, asked the patient with anxiety and excitement: "Tell me quickly, how did the Chinese doctor feel when he was helping you treat the disease?"

The patient heard Park Yong-tae's words and looked puzzled, but he still recalled his feelings seriously and said, "When the needle was inserted around my eyes, I didn't feel any illness, but then I felt that the two needles inserted next to my eyes had a hot feeling that kept turning along my eyes. Then a feeling of oppression and a swelling and painful feeling was created around my eyes. However, it didn't take long for this feeling. Suddenly I felt like I had cried, and my eyes felt much more comfortable at once, and the rustling feeling disappeared without a trace."

Hearing the patient explaining how Wu Tianlin was feeling when he was treating him, Park Yong-tae could not guess at what method the other party used to cure acute conjunctivitis in such a short time. At this time, it is not very important for him whether Korean doctors can replace traditional Chinese medicine. What is important is what acupuncture method is the same. If you can learn this acupuncture method, it is definitely a great thing for Korean doctors. Thinking of this, he whispered to the assistant beside him: "Go and take back the video of the competition, I want to take a good look, and notify government officials to clarify the application of the Eastern Medical Treasure Archive to the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage."
