According to Han's foreign affairs letter, once Bien Bien led 5 students to Quac (now in Shaanxi Province) to make medicine. Heard The Prince of Death Quit sick suddenly died, he felt suspicious and asked to see.

Watching for a while, seeing the dead man's nose still moving, his legs were still warm, and Bian Que made a thorough diagnosis and concluded: "The witnessed death" could be "saved" and could be saved. " He lit the needle in vital points, sent Tu Minh pupil to wormwood, Coc Tu poured medicine, Tu Dung rubbed without stopping. For a long time, the "dead person" gradually regained consciousness. Bien Que used medicine stuck under his armpits, and the patient got up immediately.

Historian Tu Ma Thien recorded in the history of Ky Ky that one day Bien Le moved to Qi to meet Qi Hoan Cong. Seeing the atmosphere of Qi's king not good, he immediately said: "In his skin and legs, there is an illness of the root, if not treated promptly, the disease will get worse". In response, Qi Hoan Cong was indifferent: "I feel very strong, there is no disease at all." Bian Que retreated.

Five days later, Bian Que listed Ta Hoan Cong and once again confirmed to King Qi: "Your illness has already reached the organ, and must be cured now." Hoan Cong expressed annoyance, did not answer. Waiting for Bian Que to leave, he told everyone: "The doctor is only skilled at drawing, scary. I have no disease that he claims to be seriously ill.

Five days later, Bian Que entered the audience again. Only when he looked at King Qi's face, did he turn away. Qi Hoan Cong asked the runners to ask, Bian Que said: "The skin disease is still rubbing the medicine, the disease in the arteries is still transmitted. Now that the disease has entered the bone marrow, it will not save it anymore, so I left ". Indeed, Ta Hoan Cong was seriously ill, and the great men were incurable.

Based on his practice experience, when treating patients, Bien Thu uses the "four-diagnosis " method , which consists of 4 steps to diagnose the disease.

  1. First, he observes the patient and pays attention to appearance such as skin color and tongue color.
  2. The second step, he heard the voice, breathing.
  3. The third step, he asked the patient about the symptoms they encountered.
  4. Finally, he took the pulse.

Legend has it that Bien Thuoc was the one who gave birth to the method of vascular arrest , laying an important premise for Oriental medicine. Regarding the method of catching Bian Que's vessels, the folk handed down an anecdote.

Once, Bian Que came to Tan's country, knowing that Zhao Ziyi - who was in political power in the country fell ill, was in a coma for 5 days. Bien Que catches the pulse, sees a weak patient's circuit, and hears that the political state of Tan was troubled, so he guessed that the Zhao Ziyi worked so much that the blood did not circulate well, leading to coma. Bien Que prescribes medicine for the drink of Zhao Zi. Only two days later, the patient regained consciousness, the disease gradually subsided. In Historian, Tu Ma Thien praised: "People refer to the circuit as talking to Bian Bian".

In addition to "quaternary" , Bien Thu also understands and uses many therapies such as acupuncture, stone needles, massage. In particular, he promotes better prevention than cure. Prevention is double the value of healing. This can be clearly seen in the anecdote about Qi completed.

Bien Thu left people with many great recipes and medical works such as "Nan Kinh", "Bien Thuoc Kinh Te", "Bien Thuoc Kinh Te". Later, Bian Que and Hoa Da, Truong Trong Canh and Ly Thoi Tran were proclaimed by the posterity of Ancient Chinese Four Great Names.
