Chapter 14: Good Causes and Good Effects
Daddy's threats are always so direct, his words are pitifully barren without ink, and the word "pumping death" is already a torture worse than death in his impression.
After hearing too much of this word, Li Su's expression was already very indifferent, he was concerned about another thing.
"What's wrong with the fourth child of the Wang family? Did you get through it? ”
The people of the entire Tang Dynasty, including Li Shimin, should be thanked not by him Li Su, but by Wang Laosi.
If Wang Laosi hadn't contracted smallpox, Li Su might not have done anything about vaccinating against cowpox, he had never liked to be in the limelight, and he was lazy, so lazy that he was afraid that the world would ruin his current lazy and leisurely life because of being in the limelight.
Li Daozheng's eyes finally warmed up a little: "The fourth child didn't die, he almost had a smile, and he finally survived, but there were a lot of pockmarks on his face, I am afraid that he will not be able to eliminate it for a lifetime, and it will not be easy to find his mother-in-law in the future." ”
Li Su smiled: "It's good to be alive, it's better than anything." ”
The mood is inexplicably cheerful, there is an impulse to run wildly, these days invented cowpox, was harassed by Sun Simiao again and again, and had to find time to train and inoculate the four doctors sent by the imperial court to Taiping Village, Li Su was so busy that he was on the verge of collapse, after all, for a person who is determined to be leisurely and lazy all his life, this kind of busy day is too torturous.
The fourth child of the Wang family is not dead, and it seems that everything he has done these days has meaning.
Having experienced the joys and sorrows of this era and the parting of life and death, Li Su gradually has a heartfelt respect for life, this is an era of human life, even if you live in the prosperous era of Zhenguan, a life is far less expensive than in the previous life, war, hunger, disease...... can take away life at any time, and it is precisely because of the lowliness of life that Li Su respects it in his heart.
"You must live well......" Li Su silently admonished himself in his heart.
Li Su, who was full of emotion, was in a daze, Li Daozheng began to brew anger, and he couldn't see his son's stupid appearance, since half a month ago, this son often showed such a look, which made Li Daozheng's chest often burst out of an evil fire of eager to kill his relatives with righteousness.
"Speak, cowardly! Is your method of planting cowpox useful? ”
Li Su finally came back to his senses and looked at his father innocently: "Is it useful or not, don't you know if you look at the old and young of the Wang family?" They can still jump to our house and kowtow, they must not be able to die, right? ”
Li Daozheng searched carefully, and it was indeed the same, since everyone else came to the door to kowtow and thank him, he would definitely not be able to die, so to speak......
Staring at Li Su again, Li Daozheng's eyes became more and more suspicious.
This son...... He couldn't see through it more and more, and he hadn't noticed that he was such a awake person before.
"Su'er, you tell me honestly, where did you learn this skill of vaccinating cowpox? Has anyone taught you? ”
Li Su smiled bitterly: "The child is in the village every day, who will teach me this, it is a random guess......"
"Guess?" Li Daozheng became more and more unconvinced, this kind of thing can be guessed by guessing, and how much smoke does the ancestral tomb have to come out of to guess it.
"Yes, guess, guess it in a mess, fool around, guess it......"
With a buzz, the rattan of the magic descending weapon came out without warning, and it could be seen that it was unbearable.
"Tell the truth!" Li Daozheng's face was gloomy.
The source of cowpox knowledge is really difficult to explain, the truth is often very complicated, the truth can be traced back to more than a thousand years later, and first of all, we must explain to my father the earth's magnetic field, cosmic black holes, faster than light speed can guide zhì time rewind, etc......
Smart people know how to explain the most complex things in the most concise language, and Li Su decided to give his father a concise answer.
"Half a month ago, the child had a dream, and in the dream he saw a white-bearded immortal......"
At the moment when the rattan was about to fall, it suddenly stopped, and Li Daozheng looked at his son blankly.
"In the dream, the immortal gave the child a book of heaven, and then patted the child on the shoulder, saying that there is a difficult thing in the world, and there is an answer in the book......"
"And then?" Li Daozheng was surrounded by his son.
"Then the fairy pushed the boy and said, 'Go, Pikachu...... And the child awoke. ”
"So...... So? ”
Li Su looked at his father excitedly: "I've had an epiphany!" Daddy, the child has an epiphany......"
Brush!
The magic weapon was wrapped in wind and thunder, and it slammed down on Li Su's body.
"Cowardice, dare to fool Lao Tzu!"
**********************************************************
The villagers were all infected with cowpox, and they never heard of any smallpox again, so the four doctors from the Tai Doctor Department were very responsible and remained in Taiping Village to observe carefully.
The village is not big, it is impossible to hide secrets, and the brothers of the Wang family spared no effort to publicize it everywhere, how Li Su was worried about the country and the people, how he did not eat or drink, and finally found a way to restrain smallpox, and how to selflessly dedicate this law to the imperial court to relieve thousands of people from fire and water.
Many stories that have been processed and exaggerated by the Wang brothers are narrated, the process is so detailed, and the plot is nonsense, it can be divided into chapters and novels.
Five days later, the doctor stationed in Taiping Village happily told everyone that the smallpox plague had been eradicated.
The people of the village were jubilant and happy, and laughter was mixed with many weeping, and those who unfortunately contracted smallpox before the advent of cowpox were gone forever.
Early in the morning, Li Su yawned sleepily, and lazily opened the door of his house, and the dilapidated wooden door made a squeaky and ugly sound, which made people's teeth ache.
With his mouth open, Li Su yawned halfway, but was so frightened by the scene in front of him that he shrank back.
A large crowd of people with black pressure, countless familiar faces, just stood quietly in the middle of the Li family's small courtyard, quietly looking at Li Su who had just walked out of the house.
All the people in the village came, many and hundreds, but the crowd was silent.
Grandpa Zhao, a respected old man in the village, stood at the front, looking at Li Su, who was surprised, and the old man Zhao said loudly: "One hundred and twelve households in Taiping Village, thank you for the life-saving grace of the Li family, folks, kneel-"
Hula, hundreds of people all knelt down, black and oppressive, men and women, old people, women and children, quietly kneeling towards a young man who was only fifteen years old.
Li Su was taken aback, stepped forward in three or two steps, and hurriedly helped up the old man Zhao and several other old people who were kneeling in front of him.
"Grandpa Zhao, several grandfathers, you are folding the boy's life, the boy can't afford it......"
Old man Zhao was helped by Li Su to stand up, but he was already in tears and couldn't cry.
"Zhao has experienced more than ten plagues in his life, this year's smallpox is the most severe, but only a dozen people died in my Taiping Village, the Li family's little baby, you have accumulated great kindness, I will kneel you down, how can I not bear it?"
Li Su smiled bitterly, when cowpox was invented, it was only the Wang family who wanted to save it......
was about to persuade the villagers, when he suddenly heard a loud shout outside the courtyard.
"Where is Li Su in Taiping Village? His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has a will, kneel down quickly! ”
