Chapter 276 smooth
The next day, the imperial physician prepared everything.Because of the brochure left by Dr. Mei's mentor, the human pox is more or less certain.Now what Su Nancheng said about cowpox basically agrees with the corrective method, Taiyi Mei.

One of his biggest doubts is, can the pustules on cows be used by humans?If used, will there be any harm?

But now I really can't wait, the main reason is that Su Nancheng is willing to risk himself, which is somewhat reassuring.

His official position is not low, and he is a dignified imperial envoy. He will not seek his own death, will he?

But first is mobilization.

Fei Jiu gathered all the people in the camp. In addition to those who went out to patrol and stationed at the pass, there were 8 to [-] people here.

Fei Jiu briefly said that vaccination can prevent and eradicate smallpox, and that the first wave of vaccination will be led by the imperial envoy.

Su Nancheng deliberately didn't wear light armor, but an official uniform.The official uniforms of the city defense battalion are all strong, because they are regarded as military officers.

Su Nancheng's official uniform is red and embroidered with complicated patterns. On the high platform, his presence is most obvious.

In fact, he got up: "I am an imperial envoy here by order, and I am also the commander of the defense battalion in the capital. My grandfather is the teacher of the Holy Master, and now he is the Grand Master, Minister of the Household Department, and Marquis of Chengkang. My father is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. , my aunt was once the late emperor's noble concubine."

"I'm not saying this for publicity. I'm just telling the officers and soldiers that I will be the first to vaccinate the pox. Please also ask General Fei to find some soldiers to watch. I was born rich and noble, so I dare to vaccinate. As long as I vaccinate the pox Afterwards, I ate and lived with people who had smallpox. If it is not contagious, please trust me. You must also be vaccinated. Smallpox is indeed incurable. Once you get it, you will die. scars. But the method of this officer will never leave scars."

It exploded immediately, Fei Jiu didn't explain clearly how to inoculate the pox, neither did Su Nancheng.But with his background, among this group of big-headed soldiers, he is indeed a remarkable, indomitable existence.

He wants to take the lead, but also eat and live with sick people?It's incredible!

So, immediately there were soldiers shouting that I would like to be vaccinated.

I am willing to wait and talk with adults.

"Quiet!" Fei Jiu raised his hand.

"Send one person from each battalion to watch the vaccination, don't just send officials with official positions, call the soldiers from below." Fei Jiu said.

Since someone answered, there are too many people who want to see it.

In the end, more than 30 people were selected, all of whom were soldiers. The oldest was 40 years old, and the youngest was only in his teens.

They crowded together, eager to see how to vaccinate.

"This is Imperial Physician Mei, the doctor of Gongzhong Imperial Hospital, and now he is discussing vaccination matters with your military doctor Fan Langzhong." Su Nancheng said.

This doctor Fan is also a genius. He was a wandering doctor in his early years. He read a lot of books, but he saw more diseases.

Originally, Imperial Physician Mei was worried that he would not be able to persuade him, but the old man saw it more clearly than Imperial Physician Mei.

The biggest question for Imperial Physician Mei was whether cowpox could be used by humans, but Fan Langzhong said: "The diseases on poultry and livestock can also be transmitted to humans. In this way, the pustules on the livestock can also be used. Your teacher said Compared with this method, it is indeed more violent and difficult to control. The diseased cow is much milder."

"And, if it's not a disease, then it's fine for people to use it."

After discussing with the imperial physicians, they came up with a solution.

Of course, Su Nancheng provided a lot, the main thing was to cut cross flowers on his arm, and then put in the dried pustules powder.

"The disease will occur within three to five days, and then it will gradually recover. After that, the disease will not be contracted again for life. At that time, I will live with the sick person." Su Nancheng said.

"My lord, this is too dangerous, let's call the death row prisoner first." Niu San said.

"Time is tight. The prisoners on death row started to try yesterday, and they are all in Xiongshan County. But since I am an imperial envoy, of course I can't back down." Su Nancheng laughed.

"My lord, I would like to accompany you." Ma He said.

"So is the humble job."

"Okay. Then choose some of our brothers." Su Nancheng smiled.

Among the leading soldiers who came to observe, a man in his twenties also raised his hand: "My lord, I would like to get the pox vaccination at this time. Doesn't it mean that if you get the pox early, you won't be afraid of smallpox anymore?"

"Yes, but to tell you the truth, this kind of acne is not 100% safe. Maybe one or two of these 1000 people will die." Su Nancheng laughed.

The man was not afraid when he heard it: "I am willing."

As a result, a lot of people said yes.

Su Nancheng smiled, people nowadays do not understand so much scientific knowledge, but as long as someone leads them, it is not difficult to talk.

In particular, this is a military camp.

What happened next went very smoothly.

In the first batch, apart from Su Nancheng and the four generals, there were also ten people from the city defense battalion and ten people from the observation group. All 25 people were inoculated with cowpox by Dr. Mei himself.

At the beginning, nothing happened, Su Nancheng dictated, and asked Imperial Physician Mei to write down the method of recuperation.

It is nothing more than to eat enough, sleep enough, not to be cold, but not to be stuffy and not to breathe fresh air.

Under the limited living conditions, pay attention to hygiene.

Behind, everyone is watching and waiting.

Because Su Nancheng said that he would get sick in three to five days, so three days later, when he got sick with acne, although everyone was frightened, they didn't panic.

The high fever and pimples all over his body made Su Nancheng very uncomfortable, but he drank the medicine prescribed by Dr. Mei, which was some medicine for reducing fire and clearing liver.

Eat as much as you can every day, and cook slowly. After four or five days, the acne gradually disappeared. He controlled it well, so there were no scars left.

This illness still made him thinner and weaker.But this also has something to do with him galloping from the capital.

too tired……

As Su Nancheng and everyone recovered, the people in the camp were surprised to find that all these adults recovered, and none of them had any accidents.

It was also smooth, with 25 people, no one had any accidents.

Not even one of the dozen or so death row prisoners in Xiongshan County died.

After all, in order to convince the people in the camp, Su Nancheng really asked people to watch him get the pox, and after he got sick, he also asked people to watch him with rashes all over his body.

Of course, there are people who don't believe it in any age, and there are always conspiracy theories.

But most of the top soldiers believed it, and they were not even in a hurry to wait for Su Nancheng to live with the patients, and now they had to be vaccinated.

Before Su Nancheng came, many smallpox patients had died.How can it be so easy for them to get sick?How can it be done so quickly?

25 people were vaccinated, and all of them survived. Su Nancheng now exists in the army like a fairy possessed.

The little soldiers only want to get it quickly, and then hurry up, so why do they care about other things?
Su Nancheng was very satisfied with the result, but he still kept his promise and lived in a tent with the sick person.
