06: The initiator
At the end of the day, the medicine in the Shen Family Medical Center was finally distributed, and there were more than 500 people in total, plus some scattered people, almost 600 people!
The Shen Family Medical Hall, which was originally crowded and lively, has become very few at this time.
In the dead of night, the candlelight flickered.
Shen Huaifu was alone in the study, concentrating on continuing to look at the medical books.
In this way, he confined himself to the study day and night, looking for a solution to the plague, without distractions, and had reached the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.
Even eating and living in the study, every time Cuicui sent the food in, she took it out after eating, and Shen Huaifu never went out of the room for three days.
Finally some eyebrows! Shen Huaifu almost jumped up happily, it turned out to be so simple.
The so-called disease comes from the mouth, and the plague must be treated first, and a breakthrough must be found in the patient's diet in order to prescribe the right medicine!
He didn't expect such a simple question, he really had been a doctor for more than 20 years.
"It is really the beginning of all things, the road is simple, and the evolution is complex."
So he walked out of the study, the sun was dazzling, he subconsciously blocked it with his hand, and when he returned to the room, Shen Huaifu washed his face in the mirror, only to realize that he hadn't washed his face and shaved his beard for three days, and now he looked like a prisoner who had just come out of the prison. Shen Huaifu described himself like this in his heart, and couldn't help laughing.
So he visited several homes and found that there was nothing special about their food! So, he went to the water source of Fengcheng again!
Fengcheng is divided into two water sources, one is located in the South Mountain of Fengcheng, while the other is located in the North Mountain!
Shen Huaifu first went to the source of Beishan, the source of Beishan is ten miles away from the city, Shen Huaifu hiked to Beishan, it was already afternoon, Shen Huaifu looked around at the water source, and found nothing suspicious, the problem should not be at the source of Beishan, he thought, is the problem on Nanshan?
So he turned back again, and it was already late when he returned home, and Luo and Shen Lanxin were anxiously waiting for him.
At noon, Luo saw that the door of the study was open, and as soon as he entered, he found that Shen Huaifu was gone, so he looked around, and after looking for a long time, he didn't see anyone, no one saw where he went, asked Shen Lanxin, Shen Lanxin didn't know, asked Fa Cai, Fa Cai also shook his head, this is a bad Luo Che, why are the good people gone, seeing that it is dark this day, it is really bad for Roche.
At this time, the door suddenly opened, it was Shen Huaifu, and when he saw Shen Huaifu walking in, Luo's hanging heart fell to the ground!
As soon as Shen Lanxin saw that it was Shen Huaifu, he hurriedly said, "Dad, are you coming back, my mother and I are worried about you?" ”
Seeing Shen Huaifu's dusty appearance, Luo asked "Where have you been?" Why are you only coming back now? ”
"Oh, I went to Kitayama." Shen Huaifu said lightly.
"Kitayama? Roche was slightly surprised, what are you going to do there? ”
"The plague is a bit of an eyebrow, so let's go check it out!" While speaking, Shen Huaifu sat down.
Seeing his tired face, Roche walked over to knead his shoulder.
"Did you find anything?" Roche couldn't help but ask.
Shen Huaifu closed his eyes and shook his head, "Not yet, I plan to go to Nanshan tomorrow to have a look." ”
"Nanshan?" At this time, Shen Lanxin interjected.
"I heard that there are often wild boars in Nanshan in the past two months, why don't I go with you tomorrow?"
At this time, Shen Huaifu opened his eyes and said, "No need, the plague has been rampant recently, don't go around, and besides, the medical hall can't be busy alone, don't worry, I will go early and return early." ”
"It's so much more comfortable to pinch for a while."
Luo suddenly slapped him in the back and said, "You, you scared me to death, I thought a big living person was lost?" If you don't come back, I'm going to report to the police. ”
"Where can I go for such a big living person? Do you think I look like a rich man? robbed of color, and you are willing to ask me. Shen Huaifu couldn't help laughing at himself.
Luo suddenly laughed when he heard this, "It's finally a little self-aware." ”
Shen Huaifu said with a smile: "That's natural, who doesn't know that Madame was a great beauty when she was young, and marrying Madame is the greatest blessing in my life." ”
Shen Huaifu's words were almost sweet in her heart.
Shen Lan held his forehead in his heart, these two people simply used her as air, flirting and scolding in a grand manner, which was really disrespectful to the old man.
"Ahem, ahem, Shen Lan made a voice in his heart, "Your house is a little cold, I'll go back to my room." ”
Before leaving, Shen Lanxin deliberately made a trembling movement.
Seeing Shen Lanxin go out, Shen Huaifu said with a puzzled face: "Are you cold?" ”
Roche shook his head: "I'm not cold, are you cold?" ”
"I'm not cold either."
The two of them were suddenly a little bit of a monk, and they were confused.
On the second day, Shen Huaifu walked down the street with a medicine box on his back and was rushing to Nanshan.
"Doctor Shen, please stay." A voice came from behind.
Hearing someone call him, Shen Huaifu stopped and turned around.
"Is this boy calling me?" Shen Huaifu looked at the son in front of him and didn't seem to recognize him.
"Yes."
"May I ask what Childe is doing?" Shen Huaifu looked at this person.
"In the lower cozy." He didn't answer Shen Huaifu's question, but reported his name first.
"Gao Xu?" Suddenly, my eyes lit up. "It turned out to be His Royal Highness King Qing."
Shen Huaifu was about to salute when he was stopped by Gao Xu. "Doctor Shen doesn't have to be polite, can you take a step to speak?"
So the two came to a place where no one was around.
"Doctor Shen, don't talk much, this king will get straight to the point, the court attaches great importance to the plague, and the imperial doctor in the palace is helpless, so this king came to you, I don't know what you can do?" Gao Xu's words were straightforward.
Shen Huaifu sighed slightly: "To be honest, the grass people haven't thought of the method yet, but the grass people already have some eyebrows, do you want Your Highness to go with me?" ”
Hearing that Shen Huaifu had an eyebrow, Gao Xu immediately replied, "Okay." ”
So Gao Xu followed Shen Huaifu to the source of Nanshan.
When he arrived at the downstream of the water source, Shen Huaifu looked around, but still didn't find anything abnormal!
At this time, Gao Xu asked, "Does Dr. Shen suspect that there is something wrong with the water source?" ”
"Although I can't tell if it's a problem with the water source, I have to check carefully if there is anything suspicious." Shen Huaifu replied.
"But what did you find?" Gao Xu couldn't help but ask.
Shen Huaifu shook his head, "No, this is downstream, let's go upstream and have a look." After saying that, the two went upstream again.
The mountain road was rugged and difficult to walk, and the two walked for more than an hour to reach the upper reaches.
Immediately, the two were stunned by the scene in front of them, and sure enough, a dead pig was soaked in water, and the corpse had turned white due to the long soaking.
"It turns out that there is a problem with the water source." Shen Huaifu frowned and said. ”
Gao Xu, on the other hand, looked at him with a look of surprise.
"Your Highness, the reason has been found, this is the source of the plague." Shen Huaifu pointed to the dead pig and said.
"You're saying that the dead pig caused the plague?" Gao Xu couldn't believe that the plague was caused by a dead pig.
"That's right, the instigator is the corpse of this dead pig, which caused the bacteria to contaminate the water source, and the plague will appear, as long as the corpse is cleaned up in time, the plague will disappear immediately."
Gao Xu said incredulously: "It's that simple? ”
"It's as simple as that." Shen Huaifu's tone was firm.
"So the plague is saved." Gao Xu's face was full of surprise.
If this plague can really be cured, it will be a great joy.
Shen Huaifu glanced at the surrounding woods, "Recently, there have been many wild boars here, it may be that the wild boars accidentally fell into the river and drowned while drinking water." ”
Gao Xu looked around and said, "No wonder the plague has not been cured for a long time, it seems that it is necessary to fence around this forest, otherwise there may be another wild boar that stumbles and falls into the water." ”
"Your Highness has a point, water is an essential thing every day, so it is not difficult to imagine why the area where the plague broke out so quickly." Shen Huaifu said.
"So what are we going to do now?" Gao Xu asked.
"If we want to solve the problem of the plague at its roots, we must dispose of the dead pig carcass! The next step is to intercept the polluted water!
"If you accidentally use this water source again, you will get the plague again."
"Therefore, I also ask His Highness to issue a notice to let the people who use Nanshan Water stop using well water, and if they want to drink water, they should eat the well water of Beishan, and then order someone to fill in all the wells in Nanshan Mountain, and then choose another place to dig a well after throttling."
When Gao Xu heard this, he hurriedly said, "Okay, this matter is on this king." ”
As soon as the notice was posted, the people were all boiling, so they ran to cheer each other, and the entire Fengcheng washed away the previous lifelessness in an instant, and the people who used to eat Nanshan Mountain Water all went to the North Mountain Well to fetch water.
When the emperor received the news, he was even more overjoyed, and the big stone in his heart finally landed, so he ordered to distribute medicinal materials to the people to treat the plague.
"You're saying Shen Huaifu discovered a polluted water source?" The Emperor looked at King Qing.
"That's right, when Erchen went to look for him, he was heading to the Nanshan Water Source, so Erchen followed him to find out."
King Qing replied, standing in his royal highness in court clothes.
When the emperor heard this, his face immediately showed joy, "This Shen Huaifu really has some ability." ”
"King Qing."
"Brother is here."
The emperor said: "After the plague is over, find an opportunity to invite him into the palace, he has contributed to the plague this time, I want to see him." ”
King Qing immediately agreed: "Brother obeys." ”
The plague has finally been brought under control, and most of the infected patients have recovered, and although it will take some time to recover, at least the people will no longer suffer from the pain.
After tossing for nearly a month, Shen Huaifu has lost weight, and his originally bulging belly is gone.
In order to reward him for his hard work in the past few days, Luo planned to stew an old hen for Shen Huaifu to make up for him, so he told Shen Lanxin to go to the market to buy a live one.
Running errands, Shen Lanxin has always been happy! So I happily agreed.
After a long day of strolling around the market, she finally chose a Luhua chicken after careful selection, and then went home humming a little song.
She didn't go far before her footsteps gradually stopped, and her eyes fell on a middle-aged man wearing a plain thick coat and a wide body and a fat body.
