Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Mysterious Poison
In the No. 1 office of the Department of Internal Medicine on the third floor of the First People's Hospital, Donald Duck found his cousin Liang Xiaoyu.
Liang Xiaoyu is wearing a white coat, a stethoscope hanging from his neck, a Chinese face, a board inch, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a height of 175cm can be regarded as a typical Chinese handsome man. He is the eldest son of Aunt Donald Duck's family, 39 years old this year, the chief physician who has returned from studying abroad, and is a well-known authority figure in the hospital because of his excellent surgical skills. People who usually hang up with his number will line up at 5 o'clock in the morning, and if the normal working hours of the hospital are followed, the basic number has been sold out. Today, he just didn't have to sit in for a consultation, so he had this little bit of free time.
Busy people usually have a particularly strong sense of time, and sometimes it may be accurate to every minute, and Liang Xiaoyu is such a person. Therefore, when they saw Donald Duck, the two people who were already very familiar with each other did not greet each other too much, and went directly to the topic.
He sat in a black leather seat, crossed his legs, and looked at Donald Duck in front of him. Regarding this cousin, although others say that he is a big showman and does not do his job, he doesn't think so. Donald Duck's attainments on the computer, he knows, and never dares to underestimate it. And to some extent, he even admired Donald Duck a little. A child of a family with a good family background, instead of directly taking over the family business according to ordinary thinking, standing on the shoulders of Lao Tzu, nibbling on the meals left by his predecessors, showing his ability, but picking up an unknown field by himself and re-creating his own sky, which requires enough courage and courage, at least for him, it is quite difficult.
As for Donald Duck's private life, it sounds quite absurd, but men appreciate men and do not hide their flaws.
"It's mysterious on the phone, can you say it now, what's the matter?" Liang Xiaoyu picked up a piece of glasses cloth on the table, took off the glasses and wiped them.
Donald Duck was sitting opposite Liang Xiaoyu, stood up and reopened the door of the office that had been closed, looked out and closed it again, like a spy in a movie who was afraid of being overheard. Then he pulled a chair from opposite Liang Xiaoyu to the side of the desk, and sat down facing Liang Xiaoyu.
Liang Xiaoyu looked at his series of actions, beating the small drum a little uncomfortably, the question mark on his face gradually enlarged, and he couldn't help but raise a pair of eyes that were a little bulging because of myopia and asked, "I said brother, you won't do anything, right? ”
Donald Duck realized that he was a little too cautious, and grinned "hehe" and smiled, "How is it possible, it's just, as soon as I think of this word, I feel uncomfortable and frightened." ”
"What word?"
"Gu poison. ”
Donald Duck deliberately kept his voice very low, not because he was afraid that others would hear it, but because he himself immediately thought of many horror scenes in the movie when he mentioned these two words.
"Are you interested in this?" Liang Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and continued to wipe his eyes.
"Brother, it's not that I'm interested, it's that there is a friend who asked me to help ask, and one of his friends has been hit by Gu. ”
"How?" Liang Xiaoyu continued to ask casually.
"Ordered by his husband. It was my friend's former girlfriend who was tricked, and then broke up because of it. Recently, I learned that I had been poisoned by Gu poison back then, and the symptoms of poison had been hospitalized twice. ”
"How did he know it was Gu poison?"
"This, this is a bit of a twist, according to a friend, it was told to him by a friend of the woman's. Back then, that woman was still my friend's girlfriend, and the two broke up, and then now her husband tricked her and finally got her. Watching TV is quite evil, I told my friend not to participate in such a thing, but he didn't listen at all, and his mind was on that woman. It was also because of my brother's love that I agreed to help investigate the matter together and find out the antidote. Otherwise, the woman might not live long. I vomited blood some time ago, and I wonder if it's been a serious degree. You're a doctor, and you've come back from studying abroad, so that's why I thought of you. ”
Liang Xiaoyu understood, but did not answer immediately, but silently put on his glasses and turned on the computer on the table. Donald Duck next to him kept paying attention to Liang Xiaoyu's expression, and didn't see any surprise or anything special, and his inner apprehension made him can't help but keep changing his sitting posture, holding his chin with his hand for a while, and leaning against the back of the chair for a while.
In the end, he still couldn't hold back, and Donald Duck asked, "Do you know, you can also say something." If I don't know, I'll have to think of something else. This kid couldn't wait, he just started to follow his father to work, and he was going to ask his father for a sum of money to go to the Miao tribe to investigate. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have been ready to leave today. So, I have to give him a message today, or he'll be too late to go. What if that place is really as poisonous as in the movie...... I can't even think about it, it's terrifying. Donald Duck shuddered as he spoke.
Unexpectedly, Liang Xiaoyu laughed, and laughed loudly. After a minute, the laughter stopped, and Liang Xiaoyu motioned for Donald Duck to look at his computer. This is a medical research document, titled "The Mysterious "Gu Poison" and Sports and Health Talks", the authors of the article are Yang Jianquan and Ni Shifeng, and the line below the title is in small print: "This study is funded by the Key Laboratory Fund of the Ministry of Education of the Western Resource Biology and Modern Biotechnology Laboratory".
Liang Xiaoyu pointed to a line of text and said, "Come, you see, the article says that Gu refers to spiritual mutation on the one hand, and worm disease in the abdomen on the other. In fact, part of the Gu is Japanese schistosomiasis. The swelling in the medical book is originally called Gu swelling, which mostly refers to this disease. In addition, there are many diseases classified as Gu by the ancients, such as blood in the stool, pinworms, ascariasis, poisoning, bulging, mental illness, etc. In the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is said: Where Gu worms cure Gu, it can be cured by knowing the name of Gu. For example, the snake Gu uses centipede Gu worms, centipede Gu uses shrimp toad Gu worms, and shrimp toad Gu uses snake Gu worms, etc., which are subdued and can be cured. ”
Donald Duck pondered while looking at it, as if he understood, but also didn't seem to understand, "Brother, since there are records in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it seems that there is still such a thing." ”
Liang Xiaoyu didn't explain, and continued to point to the next line of text, "Snake venom is a mixture of many proteins, peptides, enzymes, and other small molecules. Nearly 100 toxin molecules have been isolated from snake venom, one of which has toxic effects on the nervous system of mammals. Centipedes contain two toxic components that resemble bee venom, which acts on the central nervous system. Toads, also known as toads, contain indole alkaline components, and compounds containing such components will act on the central nervous system of people, resulting in symptoms such as mania and mental abnormalities. Arachnotoxins are complex and can be divided into neurotoxins, necrotoxins and mixed toxins, among which neurotoxins are the most important. It has been shown that black widow spider toxin can enhance the cytosis of cerebral microvascular endothelial cells, disrupt the connections between endothelial cells, and increase the permeability of the blood-brain barrier. ”
Liang Xiaoyu's speech was very slow, Donald Duck listened to the specific introduction of these poisons, and his brain made up the images of these animals, and a few drops of sweat were already oozing from his forehead, "I understand, in fact, it means that those so-called Gu are a toxin synthesis, not only the number is large, but also the types of poison are also numerous, and the poison is poisoned." It's terrible, it seems that we don't need to go to any Miao Jiang, we may encounter these things at any time. And according to this, the so-called Zhong Gu is also poisoned, Gu poison, Gu poison, yes, it is poisoning. ”
"Also," as an excellent doctor, Liang Xiaoyu has always been very cautious, and his professional habits make him extremely serious about the problems of the disease, he still did not draw a conclusion, and continued, "The symptoms of Gu poison are complex and serious, but they are always manifested by body pain, abdominal distention, vomiting or diarrhea, pus and blood, mental abnormalities, etc., and the symptoms are consistent with the symptoms of schistosomiasis, parasitic diseases, food poisoning, gastrointestinal diseases, and tuberculosis. In the process of liver cirrhosis and other diseases, such symptoms may be seen, and they can be treated as Gu diseases. In modern ethnic medicine, Deng Qiyao recorded: During his medical practice, 48 patients who claimed to be Gu disease sought treatment. The results found that there were: tuberculosis, rheumatic heart disease, advanced gastric cancer, liver cirrhosis, severe hepatitis, gastric and duodenal ulcer, chronic gastritis, nephritis, intestinal flatulence, and gastric dysfunction, and most of them have been cured or improved by Western medical treatment. ”
From this, Donald Duck suddenly realized, "You see, it is also said here that Gu is a weak man's technique, due to the influence of superstitious psychology, subjectively believes that it has a magical effect, and this effect has been continuously strengthened under various related legends. Because of the influence of the cultural circle effect, the people in the cultural circle cannot but be conditioned by it; on the contrary, those who do not believe in Gu poison will not be affected. ”
From beginning to end, the article explains the history of Gu poison to related poisonous insects, as well as the research results of modern medicine, which have basically been explained very clearly.
Liang Xiaoyu turned his head to Donald Duck and said, "Many times, rumors and ignorance can make people themselves fearful. According to legend, Gu worms gather together a variety of insects or reptiles to devour each other, and the final winner is Gu worms, but these animals have their own recipes, how can they devour each other? Can lice eat snakes? Snakes can eat many kinds of insects, but within a year, they will only eat lice, lizards, spiders, and other insects, and will they not starve to death? No matter how many poisonous insects a snake eats, it will not become a poisonous snake. If we follow this analogy, wouldn't people also become Gu? In many cases, diseases come not only from the decline of physical functions, but also from inner emotions and emotions. I've also studied Gu poison a long time ago, but it's actually a disease after all. There's a good chance that the woman you're talking about has some kind of disease. If the stomach lining is damaged, or if there is a lung disease, or if you are poisoned, you may vomit blood. Specifically, it depends on the results of hospital instrument tests or blood tests. Guessing here alone will not save people, and it is very likely to delay the disease. ”
Donald Duck was relieved, stretched out his hand and patted Liang Xiaoyu's shoulder, and solemnly said thank you. Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed Rufeng's phone, "It's me, Rufeng, you don't have to go to Miaojiang, I'll send you a document later, you take a closer look." If you want to save Shen Weilan, let her go to the hospital for a full body examination. ”
