"Xinglin Chunnuan"

"Xinglin Chunnuan" is often used to praise doctors with superb medical skills and noble medical ethics.

According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, the famous doctor Dong Feng lived in seclusion in Lushan. He did not charge any fees for treating patients. After a few years, countless people were cured, and there were more than 100,000 apricot trees. At that time, Dong Feng posted a notice that anyone who came here to buy apricots would not be charged money and would have to exchange rice for apricots. Then Dong Feng used all the rice he received to help the poor people. The villagers admired Dong Feng. Since then, the word "Xinglin Chunnuan" has gradually spread and is still used today.

The "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biography of Fang Shu" records a strange legend: During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a man named Fei Changfang. One day, he was drinking in a restaurant to relieve his boredom, and he happened to see a medicine seller on the street. The old man hung a medicine gourd selling pills and pills. After selling them for a while, the people on the street gradually dispersed, and the old man quietly got into the gourd.

Fei Changfang saw it clearly and concluded that this was the case. The old man was by no means an idle person. He bought wine and meat, and greeted the old man respectfully. The old man knew his purpose and led him into the gourd. When he opened his eyes, he saw a magnificent and strange Zhulan Painted Building. The flowers and herbs were like a fairyland and a fairyland. Later, Fei Changfang learned alchemy from the old man for more than ten days. Before leaving, the old man gave him a bamboo stick and rode it back to his hometown.

At that time, his family thought he was dead, but it turned out that more than ten years had passed since then. Fei Changfang could cure all diseases, drive away plagues, and bring people back to life.

This is just a myth. It is a "mysterious coat" for practitioners. Later, in order to commemorate this legendary doctor, folk doctors hung a medicinal gourd at the door of the medicine shop as a symbol of medical practice. Today, although the "hanging pot" of traditional Chinese medicine doctors is rare. , but the term "hanging pot" has remained.
