Chapter 23: Vegetarian Recipes

Lin Xiao was in a hurry and squeezed forward.

But there were too many people, and the crowd moved forward slowly.

Cousin Xia Yu was in the crowd in front of him, and he looked back from time to time to see his cousin talking to a handsome man.

The man's appearance seemed familiar, as if he was a disease control person who came to the hospital to do a flow investigation when his cousin was hospitalized.

Xia Yu grimaced at Lin Xiaoxiao, at this time he didn't know what was going on, only that although his cousin didn't ask for a marriage sign, Peach Blossom still came to the thousand-year-old temple with him.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "This can't be done, if there is really an infectious disease, so many people will let the epidemic spread." ”

Li Bai didn't expect that there would be so many pilgrims in the Thousand Buddha Temple, it seems that the previous prediction was wrong, "Proper panic is not a bad thing." ”

Li Bai glanced at Gao Meng behind him.

Gao Meng immediately understood, took out a white coverall, put it on his body, and shouted to the crowd: "Disease control site investigation, irrelevant personnel avoid!"

The bustling crowd was instantly quiet.

Everyone's eyes looked at Gao Meng, especially the white protective suit on his body, which was even more dazzling.

The appearance of disease control personnel wearing this kind of protective clothing means that there is an infectious disease.

Everyone has this common sense.

The crowd was quietly confused.

Li Bai spoke, "There is a suspected infectious disease in the back mountain, please do not enter or leave the back mountain." ”

The crowd automatically made way for the CDC group.

——

Thousand Buddha Temple, Houshan Housekeeping Department.

In front of the deceased Zhu Qianqian's room, people from the CDC and the police met.

Xia Yu saw at a glance that Fu Bo was in the police.

"Brother Fu Bo is also there, it seems that there is a murder. ”

Lin Xiaoxiao found her aunt Liang Yingxia in the crowd of onlookers.

I was anxious and nervous to find someone, only to find that she was looking into the cordon with an excited face, listening to the news with her ears pricked up.

No wonder the siblings are curious, it turns out that it is inherited from the family.

"Auntie!" Lin Xiaoxiao took Auntie's hand, "Auntie, are you okay?"

Xia Yu had already heard about what had happened on the road, and was very worried about her mother at this time, "Mom, have you ever been in contact with the deceased?"

The aunt was still excited, "I'm very good, I eat well, sleep well, I haven't touched the deceased, I just heard the news and came to see if I can help." ”

I think I'm here to join in the fun! Xia Yu muttered in his heart, he knew his mother too well.

Over there, CDC is communicating with the police.

Team Liang smiled: "Director Li, meet again." ”

Li Bai: "Team Liang, what a coincidence, our CDC received a report from the masses that there was a cluster of suspected infectious diseases here, and the CDC came to the scene to investigate. ”

Team Liang: "It's a coincidence, our police received a report from the masses that a resident pilgrim died in the backyard guest room of the Thousand Buddha Temple, we investigated the scene and preliminarily ruled out homicide, and let our forensic doctor communicate with you about the specific situation." ”

Team Liang felt that disease control belonged to the medical system, and every time they encountered it, they would ask forensic doctor Fu Bo to communicate with them.

Fu Bo first took a group of people from disease control to check on the deceased.

There are many similarities between the CDC's on-site investigation and the police's on-site investigation.

Observe the deceased, collect specimens, and find anomalies......

Fu Bo: "Director Li, have you found anything?"

"The deceased had patches of desquamation on the skin of his face, neck and arms, had symptoms of mouth ulcers and glossitis before his death, had no symptoms of bleeding, and his eyeballs were bloodshot. I'm also going to check on other people who had contact with the deceased. ”

Li Bai finished collecting samples for the deceased Zhu Qianqian, and with the assistance of Fu Bo, he found several other permanent pilgrims.

The CDC group asked the resident pilgrims separately.

In the face of disease control people, Granny Zhang told the details of her recent experience, including three meals a day, who she came into contact with, and even went out for a walk and met a few wild squirrels in the woods.

Gao Xiaopeng even had no reservations about Yu Fei, including when to relieve his stool, how many times a day he went to the toilet, when he fell asleep at night, and when he woke up in the morning, especially when it came to Wu Li eating meat in the dining hall last week, he even complained.

Uncle Li answered the questions a little incoherently, although he could give a general account of his previous experience, but there were obvious conflicts in some places, which was more like an early symptom of Alzheimer's disease.

Mrs. Wang recalled the recent abnormal situation, and her diet was the same as before, but she often had diarrhea recently, and her sleep at night was not as good as before.

After checking them one by one, Li Bai found more clues than Fu Bo.

In addition to skin lesions, mucosal inflammation, there are gastrointestinal symptoms and, more importantly, neurological symptoms.

Several members of the disease control emergency response team came to Li Bai and whispered to discuss the condition of the resident pilgrims.

Yu Fei: "Granny Zhang said that her skin symptoms will worsen every time she is exposed to the sun, could it be solar dermatitis?"

Gao Meng: "It could also be variant porphyria." ”

Lin Zhang: "Hartnup syndrome?"

Yang Le: "Could it be a drug rash?" Several regular pilgrims have eaten strange health products. ”

Several people were talking, Li Bai was silent at first, and then suddenly said, "Where is the usual recipe for the resident pilgrims of the Thousand Buddha Temple?"

The aunt had been listening to the side, and when she heard Li Bai's question, she immediately took the initiative to help, "I know, the recipe is in the hands of the steward of the Zhaitang, and it is the deputy manager of the catering department in Houshan, surnamed Zhang, called Zhang Yu." ”

Li Bai found Lin Xiaoxiao and Xia Yu standing beside the lady who spoke just now, and immediately guessed the identity of the woman.

Fu Bo took the initiative to greet his aunt, "Sister-in-law, are you also here?"

Xia Yu: "Brother Fu Bo, my mother has been here for more than a week, my cousin and I came to see my mother, and by the way, we came to eat fast, not long after arriving." ”

"Xiaoxiao likes to eat fasting?" Fu Bo's attention was focused on Lin Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes kept staring at Li Bai, watching him quickly find the person in charge of the Zhaitang-Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu brought the recipe, Li Bai looked at it carefully, Lin Xiaoxiao also stepped forward, and found that the recipes were different every day, and they rotated once a week.

Because it's a vegetarian meal, it's all vegetarian.

The recipes of several resident pilgrims are different from those of temporary pilgrims.

"The staple food is corn?" Li Bai asked Zhang Yu.

"Yes, corn is the main food for our fasting meal, and some pasta can be provided to cater to the tastes of temporary pilgrims, but the pilgrims who live here all eat corn as the main food, mainly for spiritual practice. ”

There is no meat, fish, eggs, milk, and other meat foods, even if there is corn, and corn is the staple food, and there are few legumes in the supplementary food.

Li Bai thought of a disease - pellagra, also known as niacin deficiency.

If people eat vegetarian food for a long time, especially corn as the staple food, without other legumes or meat foods, it is easy to cause niacin deficiency in the body and cause pellagra.

Sometimes a person has a certain disease that causes an ingestion disorder that can also cause this disease.

"It may be niacin deficiency, and I am going to take samples from the deceased and several other pilgrims, focusing on urine collection. Several resident pilgrims were advised to go to the hospital to receive niacin supplementation. Li Bai gave advice.
