Chapter 777: Nine Yin Absolute Veins

Nine Yin Absolute Pulse!

The name of this disease is indeed apt, the patient is cold all over, but this coldness is different from Ning Xue. Ning Xue's coldness comes from the cold of the special energy in her body, but the coldness of the Nine Yin Absolute Veins is the kind of cold that is like a dead person without the temperature of her body.

Not only that, all the meridians of the patient are completely occluded, which is different from the occlusion caused by normal people's illness, but the meridians are blocked by solid substances.

Usually people who are in good health, whether they are ordinary people or martial artists, the meridians are unimpeded.

When you are sick, some of the meridians that are targeted at the lesion are blocked, but this blockage is localized and cannot spread throughout the body.

The key so-called meridian blockage is just that the meridians are blocked by depressed qi, and in the meridians of the patients with the Nine Yin Absolute Pulses, it is an unknown solid substance.

Qin Yan knew that the entire Valley of the Living Dead had been studying the Nine Yin Absolute Veins for more than a thousand years, and he must have very detailed and complete information, which was definitely more detailed than his own temporary inspection and understanding, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Senior, you should know what is blocked in the meridians of the Dao patients, right?" ”

"You found out too?"

Seeing that he had completed his diagnosis, Huo Changli said with a gloomy expression: "When the Nine Yin Absolute Veins first appeared, our research direction was the meridians. The ancestors of the Huo family discovered it very early, and even took out the stasis from the patient's meridians to study it, but it was just ...... It's a toxin, but it doesn't exist in the world, and it shouldn't be in the human body, and no one knows how it came about. ”

A toxin that doesn't exist in the world?

Qin Yan didn't think this was certain, because Huo Changli's so-called world was only limited to the Immortal Martial Realm, and there was a broader world outside the Immortal Martial Realm, where there were all kinds of wonderful things.

Of course, he didn't think that this was really from outside the Immortal Martial Realm, or even caused by someone poisoning, in fact, it was almost impossible.

If it was poisoned, not to mention the medical skills of the Valley of the Living Dead, it would be easy to find out. What's more, even if there is a certain toxin, it will be passed from the previous generation to the next, and after countless generations of dilution, the content of the toxin will become smaller and smaller. In addition, if someone poisons someone, the entire Huo family will be poisoned, and it is impossible to say that among newborn babies, the proportion of poisoning has been maintained at a quarter ratio.

Or what did you eat?

This possibility was also immediately ruled out, the Valley of the Living Dead was proficient in medical science, and at the beginning of the appearance of the Nine Yin Absolute Vein, he must have thought of this possibility a long time ago.

In the following brief exchange, Qin Yan quickly ruled out other possibilities, and got only one answer - these toxins come from within the human body and are formed by the human body!

In the metabolism of the human body, it does eliminate various toxins.

But!

According to Huo Changli, after this toxin was taken out for testing, it was found that it did not come from a normal person's body, and it stands to reason that it is impossible to secrete this toxin in the human metabolism.

"Senior, you said before that the patient at the beginning will die at the age of eleven or twelve, how do you help the patient extend his life to the age of twenty?"

"Remove toxins from the meridians."

After saying this, Huo Changli couldn't help frowning, and said helplessly: "But as I get older, the speed of toxin secretion continues to accelerate. In the later stage, this kind of toxin, which does not exist elsewhere, because it cannot be fundamentally removed, will spread to the whole body in a short period of time, so it ...... The limit of our lifespan, that is, eighteen to twenty years old, is beyond the limits of the toxin's rapid spread. ”

Through these words, Qin Yan got more information.

First of all, the toxin cannot be detoxified, and the rate of secretion increases with age.

Secondly, detoxification is actually a palliative rather than a cure, and the real reason is that this unknown toxin is secreted for the sake of the disease.

"Where is the source of the toxin?" Qin Yan asked again.

"I don't know what to do." Huo Changli shook his head.

"How could it be...... Even if you follow the map, you should be able to find the source. Qin Yan's face was full of surprise.

"These toxins are collected from the whole body, into the meridians."

Huo Changli knew what he was worried about, and explained: "Actually, this toxin has a very strange feature, their source comes from the whole body, and every place will secrete toxins, but they return to the sea and merge into the meridians. Once the patient reaches the end of life, the toxins collected in the meridians will instantly spread throughout the body, and at that time, even I can no longer do anything. ”

No wonder he said that he didn't know where the source of the toxin was, it turned out that every part of the body secreted toxins, and there was no way to find the exact source.

In fact, when it comes to the diagnosis of diseases, Qin Yan is not necessarily stronger than the medical skills of the Valley of the Living Dead, his advantage is that decoction and acupuncture are not diagnoses. However, coming from the earth, where the society was unprecedentedly developed, his knowledge in some aspects far exceeded that of the Immortal Martial Realm similar to the ancient Yanhuang Dynasty.

Scientific knowledge!

Microscopy!

Western Medicine!

Yes, Chinese medicine does have its own uniqueness, but Western medicine, developed by high technology, is by no means useless skills!

Do people in the Xianwu world know that Lu Dao can make serum protein?

Do they understand what minimally invasive surgery is?

Do they have advanced medical devices for Western medicine?

These are completely unfamiliar fields for the Valley of the Living Dead led by Huo Changli, although Qin Yan may not know much, but some basic common sense is still known.

For example - genes!

A bold idea came to his mind, he looked at Huo Changli with burning eyes, and said word by word: "If I'm not mistaken, even if the patient has this toxin in his hair, right?" ”

"You...... How do you know the way?! Huo Changli couldn't help but be surprised.

It's like if a person is poisoned, his internal organs, blood, bones, and muscles may be poisonous, but hair cannot contain toxins, because hair, unlike the rest of the body, has no capillaries, and toxins cannot enter the hair.

However, Qin Yan did not conduct any tests on the patient's hair, so how did he know that the hair also had toxins?

"If I'm not mistaken, the problem lies with a certain ancestor of the Huo family."

Qin Yan's face became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I still want to know a question about Lu Dao, whether he is the first person to suffer from the Nine Yin Absolute Pulse is the Huo family's lineage. The person who gave birth to the first sick baby was not the head of the Huo family at that time? Then the Huo family is based on his vein to continue, and it is precisely that vein that vein is becoming more and more prosperous, and there are more and more babies with the disease of the Nine Yin Absolute Pulse? ”

"That's right! In fact, this was discovered by the ancestors later, but you know the Tao...... In a big family like ours, the line that becomes the head of the family must be the most prosperous, and the next head of the family is selected from the lineage of the previous family, so it has been developing, and after thousands of years, other branches have gradually withered, and the head of the family of that generation at that time has become the entire Huo family now - is there any problem here? ”

"I said, the problem lies with the Huo family ancestor."

Qin Yan shook his head with a wry smile and sighed, "I don't know what happened to that Huo family ancestor, simply put, his body appeared in some special change. But this change is only hidden in him and is not revealed. However, once he gives birth to a child, it is very likely that the child will reveal this hidden thing, and the proportion should be a quarter. ”

To put it bluntly, the genes of the Huo family ancestor have produced some kind of special mutation, which is an invisible genetic mutation, and in his offspring, there will be a quarter of the manifestation of the manifest xing, and the other three-quarters are still the hidden xing. And then needless to say, just like Yu Gong said, the son gives birth to another child, extending from his vein downward, and the children born of the descendants of the hidden xing gene mutation still follow the law of one-quarter visible xing and three-quarter invisible.

As a lineage of descendants, it has continued to grow and develop, and it has been married to other collateral lines, and it has continued until now, I am afraid that no one in the entire Huo family will be spared.

Therefore, even if they intermarry with the outside world, they still can't change this problem, because the Huo family has all carried this gene.

This is what is called a gene mutation in Western medicine.

It's just that unlike conventional genetic diseases, this kind of genetic disease is far more terrifying than any kind of genetic disease that Qin Yan has heard.

Other genetic diseases, although there are also overt and recessive diseases, although some will be passed on to the next generation. However, if one of the parents is a normal person, the next generation will not definitely have problems, but the Huo family's genetic mutation is that as long as one of the parents carries it, the children will definitely carry it.

Genetic mutations!

Genetic Disease!

This kind of thing can't be treated on the earth, but even if it is placed in the Xianwu world, it is also incurable, because the problem comes from the DNA in the cells, and the human body is made up of countless cells, and in essence, the human body itself is constructed of countless DNA.

Injury, poisoning, illness, these are all problems from the outside world, so they can be treated, but if there is a problem with their own DNA, how to treat it?

The high technology of the earth can't be treated, the medical skills of the immortal martial arts can't be treated, can Qin Yan be treated?

"I'm not sure."

Qin Yan looked at Huo Changli unabashedly, and said with a wry smile: "I now know the source of the Dao problem, but this kind of thing is beyond the scope of my medical skills. I've had a similar problem before, but it's only a symptom rather than a cure, so I'm not sure about it this time. ”

"Even if you treat the symptoms, it's good, as long as you can survive......" Huo Changli's face was full of excitement.

"Senior, what I said about treating the symptoms but not the root cause is for the symptom I encountered before, which is far less exaggerated than the Nine Yin Absolute Pulse."

"Ahh

"That's ...... The cure for the root cause is not something that can be found in a short period of time, so I will start with the symptom first, and if I can find a complete antidote to the virus, at least I can ensure that the patient will not die. ”

"Okay!"

Huo Changli's expression became excited again, and then he said: "But you have to be mentally prepared, even if it is just a symptomatic detoxification - our Huo family has studied for so many years, but we still haven't been able to find an effective detoxification method, so even if it's just detoxification, it's not easy." ”

Of course, Qin Yan knew that it was not easy, with the medical skills of the Valley of the Living Dead, he had not been able to detoxify for more than a thousand years, so he could imagine how difficult this toxin was to crack.

Suddenly!

Just as he was about to take some samples from the girl's meridians for testing, a middle-aged man hurriedly ran in.

He first looked at Qin Yan strangely, and then looked like he wanted to say something, so Qin Yan's heart was immediately full of vigilance......
