Forty-six, Tianxing disease

It was still a snowy day, Yi Susu got up the earliest, opened the door of the hospital early in the morning to clear the snow, and then the hospital ushered in the first patient of the day, a young man helped an old man into the hospital.

The old man's face was very bad, and Gongsun Yu hurriedly beckoned him to sit down and asked about his condition. The old man recounted that since the second half of last night, he felt severe pain in his abdomen, vomited and diarrhea more than a dozen times, and felt very painful in his abdomen.

Gongsun Yu helped him take the pulse, and found that the left side was slippery and slippery, and the right side was thin and astringent, and concluded that the food had been vomited, but the poison had entered the blood, and the blood was painful. So he prescribed a total of nine flavor medicines, such as Duhuo, safflower, peach kernel, Puhuang, Xuanming powder, tribulus terrestris, black medicine, incense, and citrus aurantium, and asked Susu to help dispense the medicine, and told him to go back and fry it with water, and drink it for three days, if it still has no effect, he will come back for a follow-up.

Near noon, I saw several groups of funeral processions passing through the medical hall one after another, leaving Yongmen from east to west; Outside the Yongmen Gate is a mass grave, and in the past few months, there have been many new graves.

In the afternoon, Lao Yan, who was making terracotta figurines by the horizontal gate, hurriedly ran to the medical hall, and as soon as he entered the door, he gasped and shouted, "Doctor Gongsun, please come to my house to help my son see a doctor." ”

Gongsun Yu stepped forward and asked, "Lao Yan, you say slowly, what's wrong with your baby son?" ”

"These days, I have a fever, diarrhea, many times a day, and I have no appetite to eat, and I am so thin that I am lying in bed all day."

"How many days? Have you asked any other doctors? ”

"It's been three or four days, and at first I was looking for a traveling doctor, Dr. Zhao, who began to say that it was a cold, and after prescribing three doses of medicine and drinking it, my stomach was even more severe, and I even pulled blood, saying that my anus was painful and hot, as if the fire was burning; Doctor Lu from Songbailu Xinglintang came to see it, and said that it was yin deficiency and that he wanted to use Qingtonic, so he gave Mai Dong and other Qingtonic to eat, and he couldn't sleep all night, saying that he was irritable and had a headache, no way, and the sister-in-law next door last time was cured by you, saying that you have excellent medical skills, so I asked me to come to you to help my son take a look. ”

Gongsun Yu didn't say a word, picked up the medicine box and went with Lao Yan. Lao Yan's son is about ten years old, and he is still having a fever due to his stomach for a few days, and the whole person is confused and in a very bad spirit.

Gongsun Yu went up to help him diagnose his pulse, and found that the pulse was like a floating string, and he was feverish when he touched his forehead, and his whole body was feverish, and his nose was stuffy and he had a headache. So he said to Lao Yan: "Ling Lang is evil heat is transmitted from the lungs to the stomach, and then there is no way to leak out, the stool is bleeding, and the anus is hot and painful, it should be the heat into the syncope and yin blood, so we must first clear the evil of the lungs and stomach, and then deal with the heat of the syncope and yin." ”

Gongsun Yu prescribed herbs such as bellflower, skullcap, kudzu, mint, licorice, poria, winter melon seeds, honeysuckle, winter mulberry leaves, Chuantong grass, etc., and ordered to fry them with water, and after drinking two servings, he would sweat and reduce fever.

Back at the medical hall, Gongsun Yu saw that there were many patients waiting to see a doctor in the medical hall, and Yi Susu and Lu Fu were very busy. Most of the patients are mainly typhoid fever, which is actually equivalent to the current flu. At that time, the medical conditions were extremely poor, unlike now, when there is a vaccine that can be administered and prevented, and if you are infected with this disease, the whole family may suffer.

After a busy day, everyone finally had time to rest, at this time Yi Susu said that she felt dizzy, her whole body was hot, and she couldn't eat, so she went to the room to rest.

In the middle of the night, Yi Susu coughed so badly that he couldn't sleep. Gongsun Yu was also very worried, always paying attention to her condition, hearing that she was coughing, he hurriedly ran over and knocked on the door.

"Susu, how do you feel? Or get up and I'll take a look at it for you. ”

Yi Susu got up to open the door, Gongsun Yu hurriedly helped her take the pulse, she felt that the pulse was heavy and tight, it should be cold and cold, and she didn't have time to warm up, and went straight into it, causing cold and body pain, chest blockage, and severe coughing. She should have contracted typhoid fever during the day when she helped others see typhoid fever, and her body's resistance was poor, so she was infected.

Gongsun Yu immediately boiled a soup with herbs such as cinnamon branches, fine spices, red peony, aconite, dried ginger, Wu Yu, Banxia, bellflower, licorice and other herbs for vegetarian to drink, this medicinal soup is now called Guizhi soup, which specializes in treating typhoid fever.

After Su Su drank the medicinal soup, he immediately sweated profusely. When I woke up the next morning, I didn't feel dizzy, but I still had a slight cough. Gongsun Yu was relieved to see that she was almost better.

There are still so many people who see a doctor today, and most of them are typhoid fever. At this time, Gongsun Yu suggested that the hospital might as well boil a large pot of guizhi soup first, and when the patient came, he could ask them to take this medicinal soup first. Yi Susu and Lu Fu thought this proposal was good, so everyone began to boil the decoction. Lu Fu also suggested that the medicinal soup should be boiled more and placed at the door of the medical hall, which could also be drunk by passers-by.

The kindness of the Boji Medical Center to deliver medicinal soup was immediately approved by the citizens, and the praise was overwhelming, and everyone praised the Boji Medical Center for its kindness.

At this time, a middle-aged woman came to the hospital, as soon as she entered the door, she said that she wanted to find Dr. Gongsun, saying that her husband was conscripted to join the army last year, and after returning from the front line a few years ago, he would often be hot and cold, so he invited the doctor of the Tianyi Museum on Murixiang Street to come to see the doctor, and the doctor said that he was possessed by the ghosts of the ghost city, and he wanted to set up an altar to pray to drive away the ghosts. So I came to Dr. Gongsun.

Gongsun Yu didn't say a word, picked up the medicine box and came to her house with the middle-aged woman, only to see an old woman lying on the bed moaning, Gongsun Yu stepped forward to check the pulse, and then judged it to be Tianxing disease according to its symptoms.

Tianxing disease is an epidemic of plague, it is estimated that the son of the old woman participated in the battle of Yuwushui, because the soldiers drank the river water infected by dead livestock after contracting this disease, and then transmitted to others, slowly infected, his son may have been infected at this time, because the body is fine, so he waited until he came back to attack, and then passed on to his mother, if it is not good, it will be passed on one by one.

Hey, damn war, damn plague.

Gongsun Yu thought that there was a secret recipe for curing Tianxing disease in the master's medical book, and this secret recipe was: take melon, cloves, and red beans, grind these three herbs into the end to make a medicinal powder, and after adjusting it with well water, tilt the patient's head back, and then put this powder into the two noses, let the nose twitch this powder, after a while, the nose will flow yellow water, and then start to vomit, after vomiting, the disease will be cured.

So Gongsun Yu asked the middle-aged woman to go back to the hospital with him again, and since there was no ready-made medicine, Gongsun Yu immediately explained to Lu Fu how to use it.

The next day, the middle-aged woman came to the clinic again, this time to report the good news, saying that after using this method, her mother-in-law began to vomit this morning, and she was much better.

Medicine does not have to be taken orally, sometimes it can be taken through the nose to cure diseases, it seems that it is really a miracle doctor; In this way, the word began to spread in the street.

After a few days, a lot of people gathered in front of the Boji Medical Center, all of them copied the guys, and they kicked down the medicinal soup at the door, and shouted loudly to passers-by: "Come and see, you are about to die." ”

Yi Susu, who was sitting in the front hall, was stunned when he saw this scene, and hurriedly ran into the back room to call Gongsun Yu and Lu Fu.

Gongsun Yu and Lu Fu ran out of the medical hall, only to see seven or eight guys, all with long swords in their hands, gathered in front of the medical hall, and the leader saw Gongsun Yu and Lu Fu, and shouted loudly: "My brother drank a bowl of soup and medicine from you yesterday, and when he came home, he vomited and diarrhea, and now he is still lying on the bed dying." ”

At this time, Lu Fu's eyes were sharp, and he recognized at a glance that this person was the leading brother in the gang that chased and killed Jiang Chong last time, Li Wei, the head horse of Guan Sandu, who was driven out by Zhao Gu with a Qimen array in Zhao Gu's practice room that day, so he stepped forward and said: .

"Who did I think, it turned out to be the head horse of the third degree of the Mao Thief Pass, and now he doesn't dare to be a powerful man in Handan City, so he ran to Chang'an City to spread wild."

Li Wei was startled when he heard Lu Fu scolding him, how come this person knows me, and he also knows the boss Guan Sandu, so he stepped forward to take a closer look, the two of them had fought before, Li Wei thought for a while, and said: "It turned out to be the house slave of the crown princess of Zhao, phew, now it's not the crown princess, I have already gone to see the king of Hades, what about Jiang Qi, where did you go?" I heard that I also ran to complain, so I asked him to come out and solve it together today, which is also painful, haha. ”
