The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 792
Yang Qingyuan was taken aback by Sun Shichang's question.

Yang Qingyuan also recalled the diagnosis results of Tang Shenwei, Li Binhu and a group of famous doctors in Jinling before. Not only Sun Shichang, but also many of them had come to a similar diagnosis.

Jinling is the old capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there are not a few famous doctors among them. Everyone said so, so there is a reason for it.

Yang Qingyuan thought it was a misdiagnosis at first, but as more and more people were diagnosed in this way, Yang Qingyuan also began to waver.

In the end, all the doctors and doctors were divided into two factions. Most of them thought that the symptoms were more like poisoning, and only a small part thought it was an epidemic.

When Tang Shenwei and Li Binhu also suspected symptoms of poisoning, Yang Qingyuan actually felt that he had to redefine this epidemic.

Now that Sun Shichang said the same thing, it was obviously the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Before Sun Shichang's arrival, many Jinling doctors who thought he was poisoned, although they didn't say anything, they had already started talking about Yang Qingyuan's previous actions in their hearts.

It is taboo for laymen to direct experts!

This kind of misjudgment by Yang Qingyuan is likely to lead to treatment errors, making the epidemic situation in Jinling City uncontrollable.

Now even Xinglin's No. [-] national player, Senior Yao Wang, feels more like poison, and that's probably it. Yang Qingyuan began to question his decision-making!
Yang Qingyuan was also a little uncertain at this time, but in the end he chose to stick to his point of view.

"Senior Brother Sun, I have been with you for several years in Wudang, and I can still distinguish between poison and disease."

Not only can they tell the difference, but Yang Qingyuan's understanding of poison and disease is better than that of Xinglin.

From the concept of modern medicine, poisoning is the reversible or irreversible interaction between chemical substances and chemical components of biological systems, which interferes with the normal metabolism and self-stabilization mechanism of the body; to a certain extent, there is no prevention and treatment mechanism for poisoning.

And disease refers to the abnormal process of life activities due to the disorder of self-regulation after the body is damaged by the cause under certain conditions, and causes a series of changes in metabolism, structure, function, space, and size. Manifested as abnormal symptoms, signs and behaviors, the disease can be resisted by one's own immunity.

Generally speaking, the poison defined by the Dazhou medical circle is basically not contagious.

Even a strange poison like Jinbo Xunhua is more of a residue of unattenuated toxicity.

But the epidemic is different!

The biggest feature of the plague is its extraordinary transmissibility, and the spread between people makes the plague change its color.

Yang Qingyuan became uncertain when he thought of this level, because ordinary martial arts practitioners are much more resistant to disease than ordinary people, but now there are also a large number of martial arts patients in Jinling City, does this not explain from the side , physical resistance did not play any role? !

Is it really poisonous? !
In order to get a confirmed result, Yang Qingyuan brought Sun Shichang, Tang Shenwei, and Li Binhu to an inn.

This is the place where the disease was first discovered, and Liu Li and Feng Wei were the first to be infected with the disease.

Before, Tang Shenwei and Li Binhu devoted themselves to researching the right medicine, and spent a lot of energy on exerting the medicinal power of tea, but they never came here.

"Three, you can diagnose and treat the police here, and you will know why I am so sure..."

Sun Shichang and the others followed their advice and diagnosed Liu Li and other arrests quickly.

Li Binhu and Tang Shen didn't react too much. After Sun Shichang's simple inspection, his expression changed drastically. He let go of Liu Li's veins, carefully looked at his skin, and used a wooden stick to widen his nostrils. , Observe the situation inside.

"It's really... unbelievable! No wonder you insisted on talking about it, Junior Brother, it's an epidemic!"

Judging from Sun Shichang's diagnosis just now, both Liu Li and Feng Wei were indeed suffering from the epidemic. No matter from the appearance or pulse condition of their illnesses, they were the same as the previous patients.

"Both, do you see that these arrests are completely different from those patients just now?"

Tang Shenwei and Li Binhu looked at each other. The two of them are good at pharmacy, prescribing the right medicine, starting from the patient's illness, and using the corresponding medicine to fight it.

For the etiology and pathology, he is not much better than those famous doctors in Jinling.

"Although the symptoms of these patients look exactly the same as those of the previous patients, the reason for their illness is completely different. The reason for this person's illness is that he was infected, but the hostility came from his mouth and nose. It was his skin that started it."

Sun Shichang put on whale leather gloves and said, "Junior Brother, this is why you insist that this is the disease!"

Yang Qingyuan nodded, that's exactly why he insisted it was a disease.

Sun Shichang frowned, "From this point of view, there may be two different groups of patients in Jinling City!"

Li Binhu was puzzled, "What does Senior Sun mean?! You mean, although they have the same disease, they are two different diseases?!"

Sun Shichang shook his head, "It's hard to say now!... Get the needle!"

A set of silver needles was quickly placed beside Sun Shichang, and Sun Shichang shot like lightning, and within a short breath, he had already pierced thirteen silver needles into Liu Li's meridians and acupoints.

Under this stimulation, Liu Li, who had fallen into a coma, slowly woke up again.

"Marquis Yang... who is this?!" Just after waking up, Liu Li was still extremely weak.

"Old man Sun Shichang, I have some questions to ask you, please try your best to answer them!"

Hearing Sun Shichang's name, Liu Li was taken aback for a moment, and then his eyes changed from unbelievable to relieved.

The name of King of Medicine is known everywhere, it seems that his life has been saved!

"Do you know how you contracted the disease? Qingyuan said, you were the first to contract it. There must be some special reason for you to be infected. It is likely that you ate something you shouldn't eat, and Or if you smell something or touch something unclean, think about it and see if you can think of anything?!"

Just as Liu Li was about to speak, Yang Qingyuan beside him said, "Senior brother, I know what you want to ask."

Yang Qingyuan then repeated the situation described by Liu Li at that time.

Sun Shichang spent his whole life treating diseases, saving lives, and studying medicine. Hearing the scene recounted by Yang Qingyuan, he couldn't help but cursed, "Bastard! This thief should be killed!"

After Yang Qingyuan finished speaking, Liu Li added again, "I found five or six hundred corpses in the cellar. Some of them were intact, while some were rotten with maggots. There was indeed a stench in the cellar. It is different from the general corpse smell. I and others were ordered to dispose of the corpses, and I have smelled the stench and turned over the corpses. Could it be that this disease was contracted at that time?!"

"..."

Tang Shenwei couldn't help asking, "Senior Sun, could this be the cause of the disease?!"

Li Binhu, who was on the side, also said, "According to my collation of ancient medical books, the outbreak of plague is often accompanied by corpses. This is why the battlefield after the war is more likely to cause epidemics. Plague often occurs after death. If it is not treated in time, it will rot, and it will attract flies, mice and other dirty things to gather, and then cause the epidemic. Hundreds of corpses are piled up together, and if they are left untreated for a long time, it is not impossible to cause the epidemic.”

But Yang Qingyuan was still skeptical about this point of view. The speed of the spread of this epidemic was not like a normal plague at all.

"By the way! Marquis Yang, there is one more thing!" Liu Li said again at this time, "Before I was in a daze and didn't go into details. At that time, we captured a few prisoners and asked them, the yellow leaf The cellar on the island is a medicine refining place exclusively for doctors, and some of the people they arrest will be sent to him."

"What refining medicine, I think it is clearly refining poison!" Li Binhu was originally a good tempered person, but he was furious when he heard that a doctor tried the medicine on living people, resulting in the death of hundreds of people.

"But even so, this should be poison. How could it become a symptom of an epidemic?" Tang Shenwei raised a question, but then said to himself: "Could it be related to the poison that these poor people were fed before they died?" ?!"

After a few breaths, Tang Shenwei overturned his deduction again, "It shouldn't be! This person died like a lamp going out. Even if the deceased was force-fed with this strange poison before he was alive, the poison would only accumulate in the gastric juice of the human body, and the blood The flow has stopped, the meridians have been blocked, there is no way to spread the whole body, and it will not have any effect on the plague?!"

After thinking deeply, Li Binhu objected again, "Brother Tang, I don't think so. This Liu Butou has contracted the disease. According to what Senior Sun said just now, he got sick because of hostility. The corpses in the cellar are related. And the symptoms of the Jinling plague this time are exactly the same as those of these arrests. Although the way of illness is completely different, there must be a connection between the same symptoms."

Sun Shichang just closed his eyes and thought deeply, but did not express his opinion. After a while, he slowly got up, opened his eyes and said, "Qingyuan, Miss Ji is in Jinling?!"

As soon as Sun Shichang mentioned Ji Mingzhu, Yang Qingyuan thought of it, "Senior Brother Sun, could this be a Gu?!"

Tang Shenwei and Li Binhu were taken aback by Yang Qingyuan's words, they didn't think in this direction.

"It's hard to say!" Sun Shichang frowned.

In fact, there is no poison in this world that can still spread in the human body after death. The barbarians in the southern border are proficient in this kind of Gu poison.

The use of poison in the Central Plains is mostly known for its fatality of sealing the throat with blood.

But Southern Xinjiang is different. Their Gu poison technique is even more weird and unpredictable. They can use corpses as the foundation to cultivate strange poison, so that the poison can erode the internal organs of the human body from the inside out, and even the surface of the skin. The dead's blood stagnates and accumulates due to blockage of the meridian, but it will continue to become stronger and stronger.

They use the flesh and blood of this poisonous person to feed the poison to refine Gu, in order to add more poison to the poison.

"The plague in Jinling City, there is a plague in the poison, and there is a poison in the plague. I have never heard of it, and I have never seen it. I suspect that it is mixed with the poisonous art of the southern border, so that the plague, poison, and Gu are combined into one. It has such a strange effect. It's just that I'm not proficient in this way, so I asked this question. If I can invite Miss Ji, it may be of great help to cure this disease."

"Senior Brother Sun, don't worry, Mingzhu is in Yangzhou, but she didn't follow me to Jinling, I will send someone to invite her here immediately, and we will jointly develop a cure for detoxification."

There is no conclusion yet on this strange disease, Yang Qingyuan decided to call it "epidemic poison" for the time being.

The findings of everyone's research today also allowed Yang Qingyuan to find a new way of thinking, "If it is Gu poison, there should be an antidote, and if we find someone who refines the poison, we can at least know how the poison was cultivated, and maybe we can find a way to detoxify it." .”

"Good!" Sun Shichang nodded, if he could know the formula of Gu poison, detoxification and cure would definitely be more effective.
-
Although there is no way to detoxify and cure diseases today, it can be regarded as a fruitful harvest.

Previously, although Yang Qingyuan knew that someone did it on purpose, he had always used it as an ancient version of biochemical weapons, using the human body to spread it, so he had always managed it by isolating pathogens and cutting off the spread.

So he never thought of the possibility of artificial continuous poisoning, but now that Sun Shichang reminded him, his thoughts suddenly opened up.

No disease can infect 30 people within ten days.

But poison can...

Of course, it is impossible for one person to poison 30 people one by one within ten days, even if 300 people stay around the clock, it may not be possible.

But if this poison is applied to things that 30 people need to use, then it is reasonable to infect 30 people in ten days.

Clothing, food, housing, and transportation are all that people need.

Clothes, housing and transportation are not suitable for poisoning, only food is convenient and simple.

In this way, the answer is ready to come out!

What is the food that 30 people must eat?Rice, vegetables, and meat have their own preferences, and they cannot be poisoned uniformly. Only water is a daily necessity for people.

This also explains why infected patients are more geographically divided and infected in patches.

Yang Qingyuan originally thought it was because the people in Jinling City lived in a fixed place and seldom moved around, but now it seems that it was just because they were poisoned in the same well!
This also explains why many rich and powerful families survived before.

The mansions of these big families all have their own wells, and they are self-sufficient in food and use. If they want to poison them, they must sneak into the mansion of the other party first. It is not only troublesome to poison each family, but also has a great possibility. be found.

You must know that many rich and famous families have martial arts masters. Once they are discovered, their actions will be completely exposed, and they will not be able to use the epidemic to confuse people.

On the other hand, the water used by the common people is a well shared by dozens of households in a street in a square city. As long as poison is poured into the well, dozens or even hundreds of households in the area of ​​the square city will undoubtedly be infected.

Moreover, these wells are public, and poisoning is a breeze.

Later, these large families also slowly became infected, which also shows that the virus has a certain degree of transmission after it is implanted in the human body.

Although it is not as terrible as Yang Qingyuan originally expected, the situation of person-to-person transmission does exist.

The same is true, this kind of plague poison is covered with a plague shell, making it difficult for people to discover its essence. If Sun Shichang hadn't come in person and discovered the clues with the medical principles of the Wen Medical School, I am afraid that it is still impossible to confirm its true composition.

"Come here, immediately investigate the wells in Jinling City, and post notices. From now on, all water in the city will be disinfected and distributed by the government. Residents in the city must not drink the water in the wells without permission!"

ps: (The case of Iron Horse Binghe has come to an end. It is the same as the author’s judgment at the time. There is no conviction of selling white noodles, and the subjective and objective are not unified. In the end, it is reasonable to establish illegal business operations and exempt from punishment! Zhongmu Court 66666!)
ps of ps, this paragraph does not require additional payment.
