Bian Que’s hanging pot helps the world

The ancients used to call those doctors with excellent medical skills Bian Que. In the long-term medical practice, the people of Qinyue studied hard, tried hard to sum up the experience of their predecessors, boldly innovated, and became a doctor with profound knowledge and excellent medical skills. He traveled far and wide, sincerely relieving people from the suffering of diseases, and gained widespread respect and welcome from the people. Therefore, people also respectfully called him Bian Que.

Bian Que was good at using the four diagnostic methods, especially pulse diagnosis and inspection, to diagnose diseases. "Historical Records: Biography of Bian Quecang Gong" records two medical cases related to him: one is to use pulse diagnosis to diagnose Zhao Jianzi's illness, and the other is to use inspection to diagnose Qi Huanhou's illness.

Fei Changfang was from Runan (today's southwest of Shangcai, Henan), he was once a market leader. There is an old man selling medicine in the market. He hangs a pot at the head of his shop. When he reaches the market, he often jumps into the pot. No one in the market sees him, except the person upstairs in the long house who sees him. It's strange. Because I went to worship again, I offered preserved wine. Weng knew that Changfang meant his god, so he said: "My son will come tomorrow, and Changfang will come back to see you on the next day. Weng then put both of you into the pot."
