No one inherits traditional skills.

Ancient medical skills have not been completely handed down. I think there are several reasons, ignorance, war and communication. Nowadays, in many people's minds, Chinese medicine and swindlers are classified into one category. In fact, Chinese medicine is very powerful. Our present medicine is actually a combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine. It would be great if China's traditional medicine could be completely passed down.

First, hide others.

Many powerful people will not easily pass on their skills to others, not only Chinese medicine, but also many industries. Sword casting, textile and mechanical arts all had glorious times in ancient times, but now many skills have been lost. Although many ancient skills are not so powerful for us now, there are always some that people need to look up to now, even the worst ones can inspire us. An important reason for the loss of these skills, including medical skills, is ignorance. Many old doctors and artists would rather lose their skills than pass them on to outsiders. Even if Li Shizhen and Hua Tuo, who are highly skilled and selfless, sum up their lifelong knowledge into a book, these people are still too few for thousands of years in China. The same is true of other industries, and few people are willing to impart experience on a large scale.

Second, war.

For any industry, war is always the most destructive. War will not only lead to the retrogression of development, the disappearance of life, but also lead to the dating of inheritance. As mentioned above, few people will pass on what they have learned all their lives to the world. Even if a few people are selflessly willing to disclose what they have learned. Their hard work will also be wasted in the war, and only a small part will be left in the end.

Third, pass on people.

Sometimes, it's not that those people are unwilling to accept apprentices, but that there are really no suitable people. In ancient times, it was difficult for people to migrate on a large scale, and many people could not go far all their lives. The ancient people's ideas are so old that there are not so many people suitable for studying medicine. Even if there are smart people, they rarely choose to study medicine, and ordinary people prefer to study and become officials in the DPRK. Famous teachers don't have good students, and talented students don't have good teachers to guide them.
