Yang compiled the book Taisu on the basis of the original 20 chapters. , supplemented and expanded to 30 volumes, and was once lost in China after the Southern Song Dynasty. However, not long after the book Taisu came out, it quickly spread to Japan. In the early 19th century, ancient books such as Taisu from Ninheji Temple in Japan were discovered one after another, which attracted the attention of Chinese scholars. From the sixth to the tenth year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu (1880-1884), Chinese scholar Yang Shoujing (Xingwu) visited Japan and took photos of the book. He also conducted textual research, annotation, and collation work on the book. The existing Taisu has some incomplete contents. The 1987 photocopy of the Japanese Rare Oriental Medical Series is the best version. The common version in my country is the photocopy of the 1955 Xiao Yanping Lanling Hall edition by the People's Medical Publishing House.
