Chapter 150: Pretending to be dizzy

At this time, Zhou Heng could already conclude that Meng Xiaoyou was not poisoned in a short period of time, this required an accumulation amount, and being pricked and angry was just a trigger, and the toxin had penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

"Large gray-black papule-like plaques can be seen on the edges of the hairline, neck, and palms in many places, Meng Xiaoyou is in the prime of life, and this is not a pigmentation formed after old age, but because of the traces left by long-term exposure to toxins."

Doctor Qu was a little confused this time, "When you say long-term contact, you mean that no one poisoned him, but the toxins that he is often exposed to every day?" It seems that this poison was not given by those who came to him to testify, so wouldn't we, the healers, be exposed to it? ”

Zhou Heng paused, "The drugs used by doctors have two sides, they can be used as a holy medicine to save people, and they can also be used as an invisible weapon to kill people, many drugs can be overdosed or improperly made to produce toxins, which endanger lives, but Meng Xiaoyou's plaques make me conclude that the poison in him is cinnabar." ”

Doctor Qu was stunned, "Cinnabar, the effect of this cinnabar calming and calming the nerves and repelling insects is very significant, and my Daliang country still has the custom of wearing cinnabar, how can it be poisoned, this is a joke." ”

Zhou Heng heard what Dr. Qu said, and hurriedly opened Meng Xiaoyou's sleeves and looked left and right.

Sure enough, there was a string of bright red handbags on his right wrist, looking at the shining metallic light inside, reaching out to touch it, Wen Yun seemed to have a temperature, and Zhou Heng was able to conclude that this was a cinnabar crystal.

However, when such crystals are heated or incinerated, there will still be a high concentration of mercury evaporation, because the main component of cinnabar is mercury sulfide, and preheated mercury will evaporate.

Mercury has a special affinity for the phobic groups in proteins, and at high concentrations, inhibits a variety of enzymes and activities.

Mercury entering the body is mainly distributed in the liver and kidney, causing liver and kidney damage, and can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and directly damage the central nervous system.

However, these are too much to talk about with Dr. Qu, it is meaningless, after all, it is impossible to explain the relevant knowledge of chemistry, don't look at their understanding of nerves, but compounds, it is really difficult to explain.

Zhou Heng looked at Dr. Qu, walked in front of Meng Xiaoyou, motioned to Dr. Qu to pull out Meng Xiaoyou's mouth, and then said:

"You just saw that I didn't check Meng Xiaoyou's mouth, if it was because of cinnabar that poisoned him, then Meng Xiaoyou at this time, not only did there appear papule-like plaques on the skin, his face was blue and gray, and the gums in the mouth would bleed, if he broke his teeth, it was loose, and if he touched the abdomen, liver and spleen, it was enlarged."

Doctor Qu came to his stubborn temper, hurried to Meng Xiaoyou's side, held the candlestick, and opened his mouth to look over.

Sure enough, I saw that there were blood stains on the gums, and my fingers gently shook my front teeth, which were really not as strong as ordinary people, and I felt shaking when I touched it slightly, which was indeed loose.

Doctor Qu was not discouraged, wiped his fingers, and touched Meng Xiaoyou's left and right upper abdomen, and the liver did not need to be vigorously probed, and the size was perceived, and the same was true for the spleen.

According to what was written in Zhou Heng's booklet, ordinary people's spleens are inaccessible, but Meng Xiaoyou's hands are still very hard.

Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows, with a clear look, Dr. Qu leaned over and spread his hands, Zhou Heng hurriedly handed him the alcohol cotton ball in disgust.

"Let's disinfect it first."

Doctor Qu didn't dislike it, wiped his hands and asked:

"I touch the medicinal herbs every day, not to mention cinnabar, I also touch the medicine next to me every day, why am I not poisoned?"

Saying that, he raised his hands in front of Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Doctor Qu, it's not that cinnabar will be poisoned if you eat it, or you can't touch it at all, the mercury in this cinnabar will only evaporate when it is hot, it is a colorless and odorless gas, which can be breathed in, and this mercury is also known as mercury."

Doctor Qu pondered with a face, "I have heard of mercury, it is as dazzling as the Milky Way, but this is a thing used in the royal secret arts, it is said that it can embalm the corpse, and the emperor's tomb is full of mercury, this thing is to kill the head when touched, but I didn't expect mercury to come out of the cinnabar." ”

Zhou Hai looked puzzled, "Since this cinnabar hand is prevalent in the Great Liang Kingdom, isn't there a law prohibiting it?" ”

Doctor Qu shook his head and took it out of his purse, a stone tied to a red rope, the front was bright red, the carving was an elephant, lifelike, and the back was a black and yellow stone, Zhou Heng looked at it and nodded.

"This is cinnabar, but the purity is not particularly high."

Dr. Qu took it back and put it up carefully.

"This is my daughter entrusted someone to build it for me, Daliang Guo advocates wearing cinnabar stone, can this thing harm people?"

Zhou Heng shook his head, "It's just that wearing it like this not only doesn't poison, but it also calms the nerves and repels insects, it's just afraid of heat." ”

Qu Ziping put away the pendant and sighed, such a poison was beyond his cognition, and he couldn't think of a solution for a while, look at Meng Xiaoyou on the clinic.

"Since you think he is poisoned, is there any way to treat it, at least let him be able to speak, not to save his life, at least you can confess some of the experience."

Zhou Heng nodded, "I think so too, Dr. Qu will trouble you to apply needles, Baihui, Renzhong, Cheekche, Dicang, Jiquan, Qize, Taixi, Taichong, Zusanli, Zhongguan, Neiguan, Sanyinjiao, to warm acupuncture, that is, after applying the needle, insert moxa sticks at the end of the needle and ignite, and the effect can be doubled." ”

Dr. Qu didn't ask why, this acupuncture and moxibustion can be used in this way in Zhou Heng, which made Dr. Qu instantly realize that the three words warm acupuncture are very appropriate, the combination of warm moxibustion and acupuncture, such a effect has been expanded many times.

Thinking of this, he didn't stop, and quickly took out his own golden needle, cut the moxa into inch segments, inserted it at the end of the needle, and then began to apply the needle.

The acupuncture points mentioned by Zhou Heng are completely engraved in Dr. Qu's mind, which is to awaken the mind and dredge the meridians, and in a moment all the silver needles with moxa sticks have been applied.

Zhou Heng had already called Wang Sanshun in, he massaged and applied needles every day, and pricked the villain, this time there was no need to be so troublesome, just take care of Meng Xiaoyou.

"Xiao San'er lit all the moxa sticks at the end of the needle, and then used two moxa sticks to continuously scorch Meng Xiaoyou's temples, don't burn him, I want dense small blisters to appear here, don't break it."

Wang Sanshun nodded yes, grabbed the fire fold and quickly lit all the moxa sticks, and then grabbed two moxa sticks to blow his head, and then began to scorch his temples.

Meng Xiaoyou didn't know if it was because of the needle, or because of the smoke of these moxa sticks, he was very quiet after taking the needle, but he was a little restless at the moment.

Zhou Heng stepped back, opened the curtain for ventilation, the fourteen moxa sticks were lit, and the consultation room was as if it had been burned with firewood, not to mention the smoke billowing out, holding a folding fan and fanning it continuously.

The patients at the door all tilted their heads to look in, but the smoke and dust were too big to see anything at all, Meng Deliang just knelt in front of the door, waited honestly, and secretly raised his eyes to see that several people were busy, and his worried heart was also slightly relaxed.

Two quarters of an hour later, the smoke and dust dissipated, Zhou Heng signaled Wang Sanshun to pick up the needle, Wang Sanshun hurriedly held a basin with half a basin of water, dipped cold water in his hand to grab the gold needle, and then threw all the moxa sticks and gold needles that were still burning in the basin.

With the sound of zila zila, all the golden needles rose.

Zhou Heng walked in and looked at the sides of Meng Xiaoyou's temples, the blisters were fine and very balanced, there were no large blisters, and they did not burst.

The corners of Meng Xiaoyou's crooked mouth have been looked a little straighter, although it is not completely closed, but the saliva is almost gone, although the head is still trembling, it is much better than before, and his eyes are closed tightly and he can't tell whether he is asleep or what.

Dr. Qu stepped forward, wiped the position of the needle with an alcohol cotton ball, and grabbed Meng Xiaoyou's wrist to check the pulse.

The more I looked at it, the more my brow furrowed.

Wang Sanshun looked at Dr. Qu with some concern, this expression made people really nervous.

"Doctor Qu, what's wrong? Is it serious? ”

Zhou Heng looked towards Wang Sanshun's ass and raised his leg to kick.

"Go out with a basin, people don't have the face to see people know, it's hard to pretend to be dizzy, you still chase and ask, you can't see the height of your eyebrows."
