Chinese medicine (CM) and Western Medicine (WM) show different traces in the inheritance and innovation. The great distinguished physicians in the history of CM and WM, and eternal classic works have experienced similar fates in the river of the history, but they have manifested the same origins and different branches. In this paper, I hold that it is understandable that CM classics and WM classics have experienced different historical destinies from different disciplinary attributes. Their methodological origins could be found from different ideological and cultural bases. They construct necessary tension of mutual reference and bridging from future development of a medical community.
