Chapter 163: Strange Recipes Through the Ages [2]

"It doesn't matter." Zhu Yan gently comforted Xingye and reached out to pat her arm.

She just heard those people talk about the symptoms of the disease after someone was bitten by a rabid dog, and it can be preliminarily determined that it is rabies, and there is no vaccine here, from the perspective of Western medicine, there is almost no hope of treatment once the disease occurs, and from the perspective of Chinese medicine, it is even worse, because Chinese medicine classifies this kind of disease as "not internal and external causes".

There are only three types of causes in TCM, namely internal causes, external causes, and non-internal and external causes. Internal causes include excessive emotion, improper diet, pathological products (phlegm drinking, congestion, stones), etc., and most of the external causes are caused by the six evils of wind, cold, summer, dampness, dryness, and fire, and as for the internal and external causes, there are many of them, such as exhalation, atrioventricular work, gold sores, tigers, wolves, poisonous insects, ghosts, and drowning.

Rabies is unfortunately listed among them, rabies has a long history in ancient times, and the name of this disease is still from traditional Chinese medicine, which was first seen in the "Fifty-two Prescriptions" unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Tomb.

But the only thing Zhu Yan can think of now is a record in Ge Hong's "Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescription": "If a rabid dog bites, it will be issued once every seven days, and if it does not occur after thirty-seven days, it will be taken off, and it will be a great exemption for a hundred days." ”

The general meaning is that after a rabies bites, it will attack in about seven days, if it does not occur after 37 days, then it is considered to be basically out of danger, and if it does not occur for three months, then it can be said to have survived.

Although Ge Hong's account is somewhat different from modern medicine, it is not very different, and what is more encouraging is in this "Behind the Elbow". Ge Hong also recorded the method of preventing the onset of the disease: take out the rabies cerebral marrow and apply it to the wound.

For this method, some people have always attacked its authenticity, and even become a representative of the dregs of traditional Chinese medicine.

But this rhetoric is clearly excessive. Many people do not know that the so-called rabies vaccine was originally extracted by Pasteur from the medulla oblongata of rabies.

Therefore, regardless of whether the success of the canine brain compress method is due to the fact that there is no infection, or because the immunity in the canine brain really works, Zhu Yan feels that this method is worth trying.

"Sister-in-law, can you let Zhu Yan give it a try?" Zhu Yan stepped forward cautiously, his voice as gentle as possible. so as not to provoke the woman to anger.

The woman's eyes were red from crying, blood was covered with a hideous cobweb, and her voice was hoarse. "You...... Who is it? ”

"Miss Zhu...... "Bian Feng didn't want her to be in this troubled water, but seeing that Zhu Yan had already walked over, it was not good to leave her here alone, so he hurriedly stepped forward to greet the woman." Ning Siniang doesn't remember those of us who do business? ”

The Ning clan naturally recognized Bian Feng. It's just that Fang was in a hurry, where could he care about looking at some people around him, and then he came back to his senses slightly, and swept Zhu Yan with a pair of vague eyes, "Boss Bian, where is this little girl?" ”

"This is our future uncle and wife, who knows a little bit of medical skills, but he is first-class in curing strange diseases." Bian Feng said without panic at all.

Hear him introduce himself like this. Zhu Yan pursed her lips, but now is not the time to be shy. Even if you get a rabies vaccine, it will take 24 hours, and she wants to use such a simple and primitive method to treat this child, and every second counts.

"Sister-in-law, Zhu Yan does have some medical skills, give it a try, maybe there will be a chance." Zhu Yan felt that her current expression must be extremely inflammatory, and it was strange to think about herself, even if Ning didn't let her be treated, the worst result would be the loss of Ning's son, and there was no loss for her Zhu Yan, but she almost tried her best to persuade her to accept treatment with a soft smile, which was really a little too enthusiastic.

Maybe this is what the medicine king Sun Simiao said about "great compassion", or maybe it's just a temporary itch?

Ning hesitated for a moment, saw the child in his arms crying so that his eyes were swollen and couldn't open them, and remembered the rabies injury a few years ago, he shuddered slightly, and handed over the child to Zhu Yan with some reluctance.

Although Xingye was also afraid, she still rushed up to block it, "Sister-in-law just hold it, our young lady may have to administer needles and medicines, I can't be busy alone, I have to help her, sister-in-law let her hold the child, isn't that a delay?" ”

Bian Feng smiled, a clever girl, all said that this disease can be transmitted from dogs to people, and can also be transmitted from people to people, Xingye is not only worried that Zhu Yan will accidentally get something unclean, but even he himself will shirk it completely.

Ning Shi was so anxious that he was going crazy now, where did he have the heart to think about Xing Ye's flower intestines, and when he heard that she was quite reasonable, he took the child back into his hand, and tried to soften his voice to comfort him.

Zhu Yan exhaled, quickly rolled up his two sleeves, revealing a white jade-like forearm, and took out a short dagger with cold light from nowhere, and without greeting anyone, he squatted down and turned over the body of the rabid dog.

"Little ...... Miss ......" Xingye saw her patiently shaving the dog hair with the blade, and while gesturing in the direction of the knife, her voice trembled in fright, "You, you, you...... You're not going to kill this dog, are you? ”

"It's not good to kill." Zhu Yan raised his eyes and glanced at her with a smile, "I'm just splitting the corpse." ”

Xingye took a step back, her face white and no longer daring to speak to her.

"Miss Zhu, what do you want to take? I'll pick it up for you. Twenty-four couldn't see her as a girl's family using a knife in front of so many people.

"I'm going to take the canine brain, I can't get a little blood, can you do it?" Zhu Yan had already put down the knife, and while talking coldly, he peeled off the fur on his neck little by little without raising his head.

A few big men who chased after the dog around saw this little girl peeling and deboning neatly, and they only felt a chill down their spine.

Twenty-four looked at her helplessly, he only knew how to kill, and this kind of delicate work was really a little too much to do.

Zhu Yan will only move after a long time, she is not a veterinarian, nor a biology, she kills mice and rabbits, and looks at human corpses, after all, the physiological structure of the same dog is still different, not to mention the corpse of a dog with body temperature.

Finally found the wing point - that is, a bone slit at the intersection of the frontal, parietal, temporal and sphenoid bones, which is located in the temple and is the weakest point of the entire skull, and Zhu Yan intends to pry open the dog's brain from here.

But before the knife, Zhu Yan remembered another thing, looked up at Twenty-four, blinked but did not speak.

Twenty-four understood, squatted down and whispered, "I was going to enter from the center of my eyebrows, but I just deviated, and the secret weapon did not enter my brain, Miss Zhu can rest assured." ”

Last time, Zhu Yan was stumped by the bitter meat plan, and those wounds were genuine, and they were healed in time without any inconvenience, but the strength and accuracy of the hand were difficult to recover for a while.

Zhu Yan breathed a sigh of relief and called the apricot leaves, "You take a handkerchief from my chest and give it to the child to smell." ”

Xingye trembled and moved over, don't open her face and tremble her hands, and finally pulled out the handkerchief, turned around and left, but she still hid to the side and vomited in the dark.

The men around suddenly felt that this was called a little girl! As for Zhu Yan, his appearance is so attractive, this temperament and knife work are really scary, and it seems to be more terrifying than Ning's pungency.

Zhu Yan shrugged his shoulders, isn't it just to dissect the corpse? She still remembers that the anatomy teacher held a bloody human heart in her hand and explained to her classmates, "This heart is very fresh, you can soak it in formalin for a while." ”

"At that time, the teacher was eating melon seeds while making specimens, what gloves did he bring?!"

Zhu Yan's humorous attitude is really enviable, and he couldn't help but smile while carefully priing open the two halves of his skull with the herringbone groove.

The people around saw that she was still smiling, and they felt even more gloomy, and they saw that the dog brain had been opened, although they had eaten pig brains and the like on weekdays, but it seemed really unacceptable to change the scene, and they didn't care whether they could hang on their faces or not, so they hurriedly avoided it.

"By the way...... Zhu Yan carefully avoided the dense blood vessels around him, "Twenty-four, you should be able to expand?" ”

She forgot that although Twenty-Four couldn't help her dissect the canine brain, as a killer, simple wound treatment would always do.

Twenty-four understood what she meant, stepped forward to explain a few words to Ning, and after asking for permission, tried to clean the child's wound as carefully as possible.

Zhu Yan took a handkerchief and wrapped half of the dog's brain, and looked at it with some embarrassment, if it was according to the method of medulla extraction used by Pasteur back then, should it be directly wrung and used?

After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Yan took out the entire brain stem, took a clean handkerchief, and saw that only Bian Feng was standing nearby, a little helpless, "Boss Bian, is there a small cup that you can't use?" ”

Bian Feng naturally knew that these things would not be used again, and where they would work, he got into the car and took a tea cup with her.

"It's time to have some ideas for drinking tea in the future." Zhu Yan was still joking, and when the people in the distance heard it, they almost vomited.

"Ah Yan, don't make trouble, let's get treatment quickly." Never got a hand, has been standing quietly watching from the side, at this time I really regret why I didn't learn medicine, if Yuan Rin was here, he would definitely not let Zhu Yan do it himself, right? There are some things that she alone can do, which is really inappropriate.

Zhu Yan didn't care at all about the pestilence-like gazes of others, so he really wrung out the juice from his brain stem in his hand and landed it in the teacup drippingly.

The medulla oblongata is the lowest part of the brainstem, and she asked herself that after half a year of anatomy, it was not enough to separate the three parts of the brainstem, and she did not want to force it.

Her idea was to dilute the liquid and apply it to the wound, apply a few pieces of canine brain, and then prescribe a prescription for the child to drink later, if she was lucky, the virus would be killed soon.

If she was lucky, the child might not have gotten sick in the first place, and she did plan to take a gamble to see what the odds were. (To be continued......)

PS: I just want to say, if you are bitten by a dog, you must go to get vaccinated, don't try this!!
