Chapter 68: Wu Youke's Shock

Wu Youxing (1582-1652), the word is okay.

A native of Dongshan, Wu County, Jiangsu, he was an infectious disease scientist in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

He deduced the source of the disease, devoted himself to research, and based on the results of the treatment, he wrote a new book "On the Plague".

It has created a precedent for infectious disease research in China.

With his lifelong experience and experience in epidemic treatment, he boldly put forward the theory of "furious gas" causing disease.

It is a great innovation in the history of medical infectious diseases in the world.

In Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Zhejiang and other places, the temperature epidemic is very large, and it has even spread to the whole country.

Because doctors used the general method of treating external infections at that time.

or use the method of treating typhoid fever, or vainly use the medicine of attacking and dispelling evil.

It is often ineffective, and even leads to the prolongation of the disease, which further progresses to the critical stage, resulting in countless untold deaths.

In view of the above situation, Wu Youxing devoted himself to research, conscientiously summed up, and put forward a new set of understandings.

It is emphasized that this disease is a warm epidemic, neither wind nor cold, neither heat nor humidity, and not the invasion of the evil of the six prostitutions.

Rather, it is due to the existence of a strange aura between heaven and earth, which is completely different from typhoid fever.

There are differences in terms of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment, which makes it separate from typhoid fever.

The plague diseases listed by Wu Youke in the book include hair disease, big-headed plague, shrimp membrane plague, melon plague, pimple plague, as well as acute infectious diseases such as malaria and dysentery.

He made it clear that these diseases were not caused by the evil spirits of the six prostitutions, but by the unhealthy spirits of the four seasons.

Its symptoms are similar to typhoid fever but the actual difference is very different, and the ancient books have never distinguished it, and Wu has distinguished and expounded them one by one, and has written a prescription.

Among them, the well-known prescriptions include the original drink, the three-elimination drink, etc., showing people the method of dividing and eliminating profits.

In terms of treatment, he put forward a set of theories for dispelling evil spirits, and the clinical treatment has received good results.

The doctrine of plague was created, 200 years ahead of the Western world.

A relatively systematic program for the differentiation and treatment of fever disease has been formed.

A series of new academic insights were put forward to enrich the content of the medical thermopathology of the motherland.

His evil qi invasion path had a certain enlightenment for Ye Tianshi's doctrine of warmth.

His academic ideas have made the theory of epidemic disease independent and systematic, and his contribution to the medicine of the motherland is extremely great.

You can think that in the late Ming Dynasty, Wu Youke's plague treatment level was already 200 years ahead of the world.

But now, in the 21st century, those Westerners are still skeptical of our Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine.

All these reasons are due to the weak captives.

It was the great unified dynasty they established that made China glorious for 5,000 years, from being hundreds of years ahead of the world to many years behind the West.

He made us Huaxia people bow their heads, and they haven't fully raised them until now.

In the entire history of China, because of the collapse of the dynasty, the emperor reluctantly ran away to be a traitor to foreign enemies, and only the last emperor was exiled.

Looking at the two famous figures in front of him, in order to show his respect for them, Zhu Youzhen hurriedly got up and hugged each other.

"Hurry up, two of you, this is not the Golden Palace, no need to be polite, take a seat!"

"Emperor Xie, the grass people don't dare to sit with you, just stand."

When these two saw the emperor personally supporting them, they quickly got up in fright, and stood there trembling, where did they dare to sit.

It is said that the emperor's authority is strict, and the king is like a tiger, not only will the head be moved, but the whole family will be punished.

Seeing the sincere and frightened appearance of the two people, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help frowning:

"I'm not a tiger, what are you afraid of? Take a seat, this is my will. ”

"The grass people thank the emperor,"

This time, Yan Yingyuan and Wu Youke dared to sit down, but only half of their butts sat on the chair.

Seeing the two of them sitting down, Zhu Youzhen began to ask:

"The two have lived in Jiangnan for a long time, what is the situation in Jiangnan now, and is there an outbreak of the epidemic? How are the people living? ”

"Wu Youke often walks the people, and has a better understanding of the people's situation.

Wu Youke hurriedly clenched his fists, and just wanted to get up to answer, Zhu Youzhen waved his hand and asked him to sit down and answer.

As a folk miracle doctor, being summoned by the emperor is really extremely proud and proud for Wu Youke.

Since the emperor wants to know about the situation in Jiangnan, he is absolutely realistic.

Tell everything you know and see today.

"Back to the emperor, the outbreak in Jiangnan is generally controllable, and the people's lives are much better than those in the north

But compared to those rich merchants, there is a huge difference, because there are no cases of starvation to death.

Many people's fertile land has been encroached upon by wealthy businessmen and officials, and their quality of life can only be said to be okay.

From the beginning of the crossing of the Yangtze River, the grass people saw that almost all the people in the north were living in misery.

Natural and man-made disasters have caused many fertile fields to be wasted, and displaced people have fled in all directions.

Officers and soldiers and rogues also have a great impact on the people, and they do not care about the lives of the people.

Infectious diseases are rampant, and local officials and doctors are helpless.

They all treat infectious diseases as wind and cold, and there is no effect in the slightest.

Because there is no sense of prevention, the disease begins to abuse.

Until after the Jingshi, the situation in the Jingshi made the grass people very relieved and shocked.

The patient has been quarantined, thus blocking the transmission of the disease.

The grass people want to ask the Pope, who proposed the condition and isolation of the Jingshi.

The grass people wanted to discuss and consult with him, and this person's understanding and prevention and control of this disease were completely beyond the imagination of the grass people.

It can also be said that his knowledge of the condition is far beyond our time. ”

Wu Youke's words made Yan Yingyuan shocked.

Yan Yingyuan didn't know what kind of illness or anything like that, and he didn't understand it at all.

However, Wu Youke actually told the emperor about the officialdom and the people.

The matter of the Ming officials being corrupt and bending the law, how could he, a flat-headed commoner, comment on it in front of the emperor?

This makes the emperor lose face, and he will be exterminated.

However, to Yan Yingyuan's surprise, the emperor did not blame Wu Youke, nor did he lose his temper, but his face was a little gloomy.

As a traverser, Zhu Youzhen still has some understanding of the history of the late Ming Dynasty.

It's just that he wants to know how different the reality of the late Ming Dynasty is from history.

Wu Youke's frankness made Zhu Youzhen very pleased, and he decided to believe and reuse Wu Youke.

Zhu Youjian:

"If you want to know who formulated the epidemic prevention and control in Jingshi, right, then I will tell you that I personally commanded and formulated it.

This is not some ordinary infectious disease, but a plague that spreads from person to person.

Due to the lack of medical care and medicine, food is insufficient, resulting in a decrease in resistance and immunity, and a high mortality rate.

To be exact, it is the plague, a plague transmitted through rats.

Because of hunger, people saw rats and began to prey on them.

Mice themselves have antibodies to the virus, they don't flare up, but they start to flare up in humans.

Due to the large number of deaths of infected people, the bodies were not disposed of or disposed of in a timely manner.

As a result, a large number of mosquitoes appear, and then mosquito bites spread to humans.

The vast majority of those infected with plague are transmitted in this way.

The plague onset is about six days, and as long as there are no problems for six days, the person is healthy.

Therefore, we have established a quarantine area in response to the decree, and patients are strictly prohibited from moving freely to spread the epidemic. ”

After Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, Wu Youke was stunned with wide eyes at that time, and he didn't react for a long time.
