No, nothing can be said, even if you're from Beijing. If you can't see it, you can't see it

In 2010, Mr. Wang from Changchun drove his family to Yongsheng Village in Jilin overnight. For no other reason, there was a "miracle doctor" in the village who could treat his family.

But because it was my first time here, I didn't know that I had to make an appointment for registration first. Upon inquiry, I found out that the registration had already been scheduled for next month. I wanted to talk to an old Chinese medicine practitioner about being kind and accommodating, but was severely refused.

This old Chinese doctor only costs five yuan to see a doctor, only sees 40 people per day, and also needs to make an appointment one month in advance, otherwise the Heavenly King Laozi will not see you.

He was always holding a cigarette in his mouth during the consultation, and as long as patients passed through his pulse, he could easily catch various difficult and complicated diseases. Every day, patients from all over the world became famous, and there were even frequent phenomena of team registration.

The registration fee of five yuan is only 40 accounts per day, and the Northeast Traditional Chinese Medicine can continue the hospital for 40 years with just one hand.

Careful medical treatment, not for the sake of making money

The 'divine doctor' in people's mouths is Wang Zhongren, an old Chinese medicine practitioner who looks unattractive, has a shaggy beard, and is always smoking.

Speaking of Wang Zhongren, in the rural areas of Manchuria under Qing rule, everyone should respect Dr. Wang when they see him. When they touch the patient's pulse, they can talk about all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases.

He is not from Jilin, his hometown is Kazuo County, Liaoning. In 1968, he came to Jilin with his father and has since settled down hereFrom my father's generation, my family is what people call "Barefoot doctor".



And he also learned medical skills from his father from a young age. At that time, Wang Zhongren, no matter where his father went to treat others, would always follow him, watching his father set his pulse, inject needles, and prescribe medicine. His little brain was filled with curiosity.

Wang's father's guidance on Wang Zhongren is also extremely strict. A simple pulse setting technique is often practiced throughout the day, and it is important to memorize the various pulse patterns in the book,In Wang's opinion, everything must have a solid foundation, and every step must be done carefully.

Later, Wang Zhongren was also very interested in the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine. Under the guidance of his father, he studied many books on traditional Chinese medicine, including the Huangdi Neijing, Shanghan Lun, and Shennong Ben Cao Jing Wait a minute.



Wang Zhongren could not be trusted in medical skills without his in-depth study of Chinese medicine. For this reason, he went to other places to study for many years later, and finally returned to the village in 1975 to continue to be his "Barefoot doctor doctor".

In his subsequent medical practice, Wang Zhongren always sought medical attention at the sight of illness. If someone sought help, he would never hide and seek medical treatment. For patients who sought medical treatment, regardless of whether they had money or not, he would seek medical treatment for others, and the unified registration fee was five yuan.

Sometimes when encountering patients with difficulties at home, they often take two sets of medication. They are not trying to make money, but rather trying to save people. He has always adhered to his father's teachings: to seek medical attention carefully and not to make money; Helping the world and saving people, not for fame and fortune.

Not adding signs or jumping in line is Wang Zhongren's own medical practice principleThe family members of patients who wanted to jump the queue came to give gifts, but he also coldly refused.

And his name was also passed down from mouth to mouth during the process of treating patients time and time again.

A bustling and bustling market, circulating in circles

Wang Zhongren's fame began in 2006, and before that, the patients who came to him for treatment were only nearby villagers. Whether it was a minor illness or pain, or an old problem left over from many years, with a pulse and a dose of medicine, it would definitely improve over time.

In this year, so many miracles happened that Wang Zhongren's name as the "miracle doctor" spread all over the Manchuria under Qing rule, and an endless stream of people came to see a doctor every day.

One of them is an elderly grandmother from a neighboring village, who is in her 70s and is not in good health. During a hospitalization, she was even given a critical illness notice by the hospital. It can be said that one foot has already stepped into the jaws of death, and her family reluctantly found Wang Zhongren. With his treatment, the elderly grandmother's physical condition has greatly improved.

According to the old lady, he has come to see Wang Zhongren for the fourth time, and every time he comes, he takes ten doses of medicine. Now his body is much better than before, and his complexion has also improved. Compared to going to the hospital before, she is more willing to use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate her body now, and is very grateful for Wang Zhongren's life-saving kindness back then.

And the other, in our view, is more of a miracle. A middle-aged man in his 40s may seem a bit stiff as he watches under the camera, but you wouldn't expect him to be lying in bed in the most severe years before, with half of his body paralyzed.

From his words, we know that Wang Zhongren is more like an immortal bringing hope to him. A simple set of acupuncture and moxibustion combined with a pair of ordinary Chinese medicine has greatly improved his health. He can not only get out of bed now, but also take care of his basic life by himself.

There are still many examples of this. He did not intentionally promote it, but relied on word of mouth to cure patients. More and more people came to see Wang Zhongren for treatment, to the extent that his clinic still had a large group of patients waiting at 10 pm.

For more than 40 years, Wang Zhongren has maintained his habit of waking up at 4:30 in the morning, starting at 5 in the morning and closing at 8 in the evening. He remains motionless, especially since 2006, when the number of patients per day has increased. He has also established a daily rule of only watching 40 people.

There are no more than 40 people, which is just enough for Wang Zhongren's workload from morning to night. Some people may say, how come there are only 40 people? One day is enough time to see more patients!

But Wang Zhongren's principle of seeking medical treatment is to look slowly and carefully. He will not overlook a detail that the patient has said, and will accurately prescribe medication based on the patient's symptoms. What he needs to do is take responsibility for the patient's life, so that the diagnosis time for each patient is long.

Everyone in the clinic is not impatient, and some may have waited for a day just to let Wang Zhongren see their symptoms; Some people come from afar, even if they have been queuing for half a month, they are full of joy.

The open space at the entrance is filled with vehicles from various places seeking medical treatment, and the small clinic is crowded with patients waiting in line. Every day, Wang Zhongren's reputation has risen, and it has also brought significant benefits to the village.

Number one is difficult to obtain, make an appointment one month in advance

Since 2006, there have been more and more patients seeking medical treatment every day. Wang Zhongren, who was feeling extremely stressed, had a headache when dealing with registration every day. He simply handed over the registration and medication process to his relatives, while focusing on treating the patients himself.

From then on, there was a rule of first registering for medical treatment, and there were only 40 appointments per day, often requiring an appointment one month in advance without registration. Even if you came from any distance or were seriously ill, you were not allowed to see them.

But things are not without a turning point. The right to register is allocated to several of his relatives, and the sick family members often find Wang Zhongren's relatives to give some benefits. The relatives will also replace their numbers and seek medical attention immediately for those who are seriously ill.

The 15th of each month is the time when Wang Zhongren and several relatives allocate registration indicators, while Wang Zhongren only manages to allocate indicators, with several of his relatives responsible for scheduling and bringing patients over.

With more and more patients coming, but often not being able to queue up on the same day, it is necessary to stay here, and a "one-stop" service has emerged, including picking up, registering, accommodating, and eating. Often, it can be done for 120 yuan, and patients with mobility difficulties will also help carry it on their backs.

Although they earn money from patients, every penny is hard work, and any problems throughout the process can be solved by them. The patient's family not only did not complain, but also expressed gratitude to them.

Some patients' families may pay more for their help, and instead of asking for more, they will ask the patients to bring some local specialties before leaving. Perhaps this is the hospitality of Northeastern people!

At the entrance of the clinic, there are scenes of seeking medical treatment every day, but Wang Zhongren is not unhelpful, he can't really help. The daily attendance of 40 people has already taken up most of his time.

Near 8 o'clock, Wang Zhongren was looking at the last patient of today, and a woman was constantly persuading him:Dr. Wang, why don't you show me four more people? It's not easy for us to come here. There's also a one and a half year old child at home who can't be separated for too long


Ms. Zhao and her husband from Shandong came a long way to the clinic with their two children, but only then did they know they needed to make an appointment in advance. However, the appointment had already been scheduled for next month, and they had no choice but to find Wang Zhongren in person.

However, there was only one sentence waiting for her: 'No way, so many people are lining up! I can't watch without a number!'

After seeing the last patient, he picked up his backpack and turned to work to return home. He didn't want to watch more, but at the end of the day, Wang Zhongren was too tired and fell into bed when he returned home. As a doctor, he couldn't alleviate the fatigue and headache he had brought at this time.

Reluctantly, Ms. Zhao could only find one of Wang Zhongren's relatives. After sharing her actual situation, the relatives also pushed out her friend's two accounts for tomorrow and let Ms. Zhao's two children see them first. However, Ms. Zhao still wanted to fight for two more accounts, but was rejected by the relatives.

Relatives also understand Wang Zhongren's hard work. The high intensity of diagnosis every day makes him exhausted, and others are not clear. As people around him, they are the most knowledgeable. Wang Zhongren often cannot rest well due to headaches caused by fatigue.

And everyone also agreed to Wang Zhongren's consultation method, patiently waiting for it to be arranged for themselves, and trying not to add other troubles to Wang Zhongren's diagnosis.

At the beginning of the new year, traditional Chinese medicine never forgets

Ordinary people still have holidays in their work, whether it's a single day off or a double day off; For those who work outside for a year, at least during the Chinese New Year, they can have a period of happy reunions with their families.

And Wang Zhongren, 365 days a year, doesn't have a day off. He has to visit at a fixed time every day, waiting for patients who have already been lined up, and his task is to cure more patients in the limited time.

Although Wang Zhongren's clinic receives an endless stream of people every day, his income is not high, and the cost of diagnosis for each patient is only 5 yuan, which has not changed from beginning to end. Therefore, Wang Zhongren still lives in his small bungalow.

And its daily meals are just rice paired with two green vegetables to make ends meet. Only during the Chinese New Year, the family will cook some meat dishes, and its daily entertainment is just the national news that we pay attention to during meals.

In his opinion, even if I haven't made much contribution to the country myself, as a party member, I should always keep up with national affairs, so that I don't forget to watch the National Day parade when treating patients.

It is such an inconspicuous old man who, while holding a cigarette in his mouth during medical treatment, constantly asks about the patient's condition, records the situation, and applies the right medicine to the case. People who have treated him praise his medical skills.

Some people also asked him why he needs to smoke a cigarette from time to time when seeing a doctor? Don't he, as a doctor, know that smoking is harmful to his health?

Wang Zhongren naturally knows, but if he doesn't smoke, how can he alleviate the fatigue and inexplicable annoyance brought about by not stopping seeing a doctor? This is just a helpless move. What ordinary person can do from 5 am to 8 pm?

On New Year's Eve, every household was celebrating the Spring Festival, and after treating the last patient of the year, Wang Zhongren walked on the road feeling relieved. The year had ended, and how many years had been waiting for him?

He just wants to go home as soon as possible, and the noise outside has nothing to do with him. In the limited time, he only wants to lie in bed and rest, but he can't sleep anymore. Watching this scene really makes people feel a bit heartbroken.


Doctors are kind-hearted, and traditional Chinese medicine inheritors have learned from the lifelong efforts of their ancestors. They are more focused on treating diseases and saving lives, but nowadays there are fewer and fewer traditional Chinese medicine inheritors. How should our next generation inherit the essence left by our ancestors?

Summary



The story of the old traditional Chinese medicine in Northeast China is not yet over, and there are still patients who come to the village every day to seek medical treatment. The 40 numbers are a daily limit, but it is not the limit of Wang Zhongren's life, just like the traditional Chinese medicine association in China has been passed down.

If our village doctors are as busy as you are, that would be great
