Chapter 361: The Source of Charcoal Poison
In the brazier, the charcoal fire was red, and the cyan flames jumped out of the old high, and everyone only felt a wave of heat rushing in, and after a while, the whole room was already warm.
Charcoal burning for heating was a sparse and common thing, but just when everyone was accustomed to it, a silent disaster suddenly came, silently taking people's lives.
Sun Simiao got up slowly and said loudly: "As of the day of the heavy snowfall, the Mo Hospital has received three charcoal poison incidents, one of which has been spared, and none of the other two families and eight people have been spared. ”
The hearts of the people suddenly became heavy.
"This is just around Chang'an this year, so what about the rest of Datang? What about the ages? If added up, how many people will be destroyed by charcoal poisoning? Sun Simiao said heavily.
Everyone shuddered and suddenly felt how heavy the task was.
Hua Yuan continued: "Why is the charcoal poison so deep! According to the cases collected by doctors, first, burning charcoal for heating is a common thing, and the people are aligned without the slightest vigilance, second, charcoal poison is colorless and tasteless, which makes people unguardable, once they find that they are already poisoned, nausea and vomiting, weakness of limbs, and even coma until death, third, once charcoal poison appears, all the people in the house, no one is spared, if it is found in time, it is not a big problem, once it is found late, there will be no cure. ”
"There is no cure!"
Everyone's hearts sank, thinking about the cases of charcoal poisoning that happened in Chang'an City in recent years. Suddenly it was heavy.
Kong Yingda couldn't believe it: "Even the doctor can't do it?" ”
Hua Yuan shook his head and said, "It can't be said that there is no way at all. If a patient is found in a timely manner, the hospital can also use first aid to alleviate it. But the poisoning is generally too deep. At least for now, there is no cure. Because doctors don't know where charcoal poison comes from, what it is? And how to detoxify. ”
Everyone nodded slowly, curing the root of the disease, only by finding the root of the disease can the disease be cured. Now doctors don't even know how charcoal poisoning happens, how to treat diseases? The right medicine!
Su Lingnon shook his head and said, "Charcoal is made from wood firing. Wood is not toxic at all, and charcoal is absolutely not toxic. ”
Everyone nodded slowly, it is common sense that all wood charcoal is non-toxic.
Li Shimin also agreed: "Since wood charcoal is not toxic, is it because the charcoal burns in the process of emitting toxic smoke."
Su Lingnon directly denied: "This is impossible. How many people in the world use charcoal to make fires? If it was poisonous, it would have been discovered long ago. ”
Charcoal and timber were farmer's business, and Sollinon had absolute authority in this regard, so that timber was excluded. Yan Tuizhi picked up the pen and paper and excitedly recorded this.
Shen Hongcai, who was sitting next to Yan Tuizhi, frowned and said: "I counted just now, all the examples of charcoal poisoning occur indoors, cold in winter, all families have closed doors and windows to avoid cold wind blowing in, is it a small indoor space, the toxicity caused by charcoal burning is very slight, in a small space." In the case of sealing, overnight, it accumulates more and more, and eventually poisoning.
As soon as Shen Hongcai's words fell, everyone in the audience suddenly lit up, there is indeed this possibility.
"It's impossible!" The Immortal Daoist shook his head and said.
Everyone immediately looked at the Immortal Daoist, looking at the black hair of the Immortal Daoist, they couldn't help but have a burst of amusement, they all knew what happened in the Xuandu Temple, but they didn't expect that this time the Taoist would send him.
The Immortal Daoist didn't care about these eyes, and said, "When the Poor Dao used to make alchemy, most of them used charcoal as fuel. Each time the alchemy is made, it usually lasts for ten days and nights, and the space of the alchemy room is also closed. It's not much bigger than a normal room! There was no problem for more than ten days, let alone overnight.
Everyone was dead silent for a while, only Yan Tuizhi kept remembering.
All of a sudden, everyone was stuck in a bottleneck. Charcoal itself is non-toxic, and it is also non-toxic after burning, so where does charcoal poison come from?
Merton suddenly got up and said, "When it comes to charcoal poisoning, the kid has a little personal experience, maybe it's a little useful." ”
"At that time, Mojia Village was very poor, and even Mofu was insufficient, I remember one year, the winter was very cold, even if it was covered with a double layer of cloth, it was difficult to sleep." Merton recalled.
Everyone looked at Merton's immature face and suddenly became unclear, among the people, I am afraid that only Merton was born poor, and the others are rich and noble no matter how poor they are, even if they are a public loser, there are many family members, and there is no problem with food and clothing.
As a last resort, the boy lit a fire in the house to keep warm. On the first day, the boy lit a charcoal fire before going to bed, but he slept until midnight, and the boy was awakened by freezing, and when he got up, he saw that the charcoal fire in the furnace had already been burned out, and he had to add charcoal again, so that he could sleep until dawn. ”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly chuckled knowingly.
The next day, the boy learned from his experience and consulted an uncle, and learned that if you sprinkle a layer of grass ash on top of the stove, you can make the fire burn for a long time, and even at dawn, the fire will not be extinguished. In order to save charcoal, the boy happily did so, so the next day, the boy was poisoned by charcoal and was carried out directly. Merton said playfully.
The crowd burst into laughter.
"At that time, fortunately, it was discovered early, and it was sent to Hualao Pharmacy for medical treatment in time, otherwise you would not have seen the kid." Merton Road.
Hua Yuan nodded and said, "The old man remembers that the people of the whole village were frightened at that time. ”
"In retrospect, the first day the boy used double portions of charcoal, but I was not poisoned by charcoal, but the next day, I used only one charcoal, and the boy was carried out. I think that's where the problem lies. ”
Everyone was suddenly shocked in their hearts, and a flash of inspiration appeared: "Are you saying that normal burning charcoal is not poisonous, and charcoal fire sprinkled with plant ash is charcoal poison?" ”
Merton nodded.
Sun Simiao said suddenly: "Indeed, in many cases, families with charcoal poisoning have indeed had such similar behaviors. ”
"Grass ash is poisonous?" Su Lingnon wondered.
Merton shook his head and said, "Isn't it because the ash is poisonous?" It is the ash of plants and trees that makes charcoal burn more slowly, which produces charcoal poison.
"Normal fuel consumption is non-toxic, but slowing down fuel consumption is toxic?" After thinking about it, everyone found that this was possible.
"It can't be! How can there be things in this world that are toxic and non-toxic. Han Zheng shook his head and said, he was deeply influenced by the Legalists, and he had always insisted that the world was clear about this, how could he have imagined that there would be such a complicated object.
However, more people believe in Merton's relationship, they are all people with extraordinary wisdom, and they can naturally see that if nothing else, I am afraid that charcoal poison is indeed the reason.
Merton said, "It's a good test, the charcoal brazier in front of us has been burning for half an hour, and we don't have any symptoms of poisoning at all. ”
"Now we just need to cover this brazier with plant ash and we can try it." Merton said.
The crowd nodded, and although they trusted Merton's judgment, no one could confirm this matter unless they saw it with their own eyes.
