First, the life of the characters.
Qi Bo was the most famous doctor in ancient China. Due to the long history, there are different opinions about his native place except Qishan in Shaanxi, Qingyang in Gansu and Yanting in Sichuan. It is generally believed that Qi Bo is from Qishan (now Qishan County, Shaanxi Province).
Qi Bo was good at thinking and ambitious since he was a child. He likes to observe natural things and phenomena, such as the sun, moon and stars, cold weather, mountains and vegetation.

Medical contribution
1, establish the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine
Qi Bo's name and life story are rare in history. In the era of the Yellow Emperor, there was already a distinction between honor and inferiority. Qi Bo was originally the minister of the Yellow Emperor, but later people called him "the skill of Huang Qi", which was before the Yellow Emperor. This name can be used for thousands of years, which is obviously unconventional.
According to this reasoning, the basic theory and thinking method of Neijing was originally established by Qi Baishi. Both Annotations on Difficult Classics and Huang Han Medicine called Neijing "a former scholar of Qi Bo, who was awarded to the Yellow Emperor", which affirmed Qi Bo's fundamental contribution.
2. Create a precedent for medical writings in China.
Under the guidance of the philosophy of Zhouyi, Huangdi Neijing expounded the theory of Yin and Yang, five elements and six qi and the theory of viscera and meridians, including human respiration, circulation, digestion, nervous system and their relationships.
It is the most classic medical book to study the principles of human physiology, pathology, diagnostics, pharmacology and therapeutics. Its contents involve astronomy, calendar, meteorology, geography, biology, agronomy, philosophy and so on. It is the first Chinese medicine book with rich content and far-reaching influence in China. ?
3. Establish the theory of acupuncture and massage in TCM.
Among the existing historical classics, there are about 8 kinds of Zeebe's main works, among which the Yellow Emperor Zeebe Massage in Hanshu Wen Yi has a volume of 10. The Classic Annals of Sui Shu contains ten volumes of Zeebe's classics; There is a volume of Qi Bo Jing in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty Yi Wenzhi. The content mainly involves acupuncture, massage, Tibetan elephant and so on. ?
4, the establishment of Chinese medicine
Qi Bo summed up clinical experience by tasting and differentiating drugs, treated according to syndrome differentiation, and created prescriptions. It records the production of ancient medicines. Shennong Herbal Classic has collected 365 kinds of medicines, and * * * records plants, animals, minerals, brewed drinks, food and a few chemicals. Because most of them are herbs, they are called this.
5. The establishment of TCM health preserving theory.
Huangdi Neijing said, "If you don't treat the disease, you can treat it. If you don't treat it, you can cure the chaos." It advocates that you should treat the disease from the root of the disease and treat the disease from the source. At the same time, you advocate the theory of keeping in good health, taking care of life and prolonging life. Create and guide the way of health preservation, such as moderate diet, regular living, not rushing, regular living, reasonable hygiene, etc. ?
6. The foundation of China's philosophy of life has been established.
Qi Bo focuses on human life, that is, birth, aging, illness and death, and studies the dialectical relationship between human life and astronomy, geography, surrounding environment, psychology and history, which is embodied in Huangdi Neijing, an encyclopedia of human life.
