"Huh?" Lin Qingdai's face changed slightly, she naturally knew what the plague meant, "Then ......, you must be careful!" ”

Du Wenhao said: "Well, I'm thinking about how to deal with this disease. ”

As he was talking, a person came from the front hall, who was stupid and fat, looked at Du Wenhao, and shouted: "Mr. Du, the foolish doctor of Jishitang is looking for you and saying that there is something urgent!" ”

Du Wenhao hurriedly followed to the front hall, his face was a little pale, and he said urgently: "Master, our hall has sent three emergencies, one of them died after a while, and two of them were dying, can you help with the consultation?" ”

Du Wenhao's heart sank: "What symptoms?" Is it high fever, chest pain, cough, blood in sputum? ”

"Yes, how do you know, Master?"

"We also have such an emergency in our church, go! Check it out! ”

Du Wenhao didn't even bring a medical box, he knew that it was useless to bring such an emergency box or not, so he followed Hantou to Jishitang.

Before entering the door, I heard a cry from Jishitang, and stepped in, only to see a man's corpse lying on the ground of the lobby, and two women were kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly. On the two beds on the side, two patients lay and moaned in pain.

Du Wenhao asked Hantou, "What is the patient's illness?" ”

"Strong heat, consciousness is always bright and sometimes sorrowful, constant proverbial, limbs are cold, chest pain and cough are urgent, blood in the phlegm, and the pulse is heavy. The three of them were like this, the one on the ground was the heaviest, and he had just been carried to the hall, and the disciple had just finished the examination, and after a while, a large amount of blood gushed out of his nostrils, and he was out of breath, and soon he lost his breath. ”

Du Wenhao took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, squatted down to carefully observe the corpse, and found that the corners of the corpse's mouth and placket were covered with blood. The lips were scorched and dry, and there were large patches of cyanotic subcutaneous blood stasis on the face, neck, palms and other exposed parts.

Du Wenhao asked in a deep voice: "What kind of evidence do you distinguish?" ”

"The heat of typhoid fever in Shaoyin."

Du Wenhao shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not a simple heat certificate, but a ......" looked left and right, pulled him aside, leaned into his ear and whispered: "It's a plague!" ”

In ancient Chinese medicine, there was no specific distinction between virulent infectious diseases, and they were all collectively referred to as plague, and the most contagious among them, such as plague and cholera, were called plague. Once the disease broke out, it spread very rapidly, often thousands of people died day and night, corpses were scattered all over the field, and some villages and towns even died altogether.

The ancients once described plague and other plagues like this: "When people die in the day, don't ask how to count, the sun is bleak and gloomy." The three of them walked less than ten steps, and suddenly two people died across the road. When people die at night, they don't dare to cry, and the plague ghost exhales and shakes the green. The wind and lights are flickering, and the coffins of people and ghosts are in the same room. People are dead all over the ground, and human bones are gradually blown old by the wind. "It's still creepy to read.

When Han Tou heard this, he shuddered, looked at Du Wenhao and said, "No...... No way? ”

Du Wenhao said in a low voice: "We also have a few emergencies in our hall, and the symptoms are the same as yours!" One of them almost died, according to the person who sent them, in Liujiawan Village, which is thirty miles away from the county seat, many people have died overnight, and the symptoms are the same! What disease can spread so quickly, you think? ”

He shivered again, turned his head to look at the corpse on the ground, lowered his voice and asked, "What now?" ”

"I'll go to Zhuang Zhixian immediately now, report this matter to him, you immediately transfer these two patients to the Wuweitang isolation ward, it has been repaired, and in the future, when you encounter this kind of case, you will all gather in our hall!" If the patient is too late to be diagnosed, it can be treated according to the heat poison closed lung syndrome first, and treated with Ma Xing Shi Gantang and the reed stem soup! ”

"Good! What to do with corpses? ”

"Let's also transfer our hall first, where I have designed an underground mortuary, and put it in the mortuary for the time being. Close the door. Anyone who comes into contact with the sick person should immediately wash their hands carefully and take Ma Xing Shi Gantang and Reed Stem Tang for prevention. Those who treat and escort the sick wear full isolation gear. I've already ordered it to be made, and when the time comes, you can go get a few sets and use them. ”

He nodded in fear, and said, "I will immediately go to all the pharmacies in the city to see if there are any such cases, and if so, ask them to transfer the patient." ”

"Good!"

Du Wenhao ran back to Wuwei Hall, and as soon as he arrived in the hall, he saw two door panels in the lobby, lying two patients who kept moaning.

Du Wenhao hurriedly sent him to the quarantine area, took the medicine according to the previous medicine, and then ran to the backyard to find Lin Qingdai, and said urgently: "Several cases in Jishitang are the same as those in our hall, and now they can be preliminarily estimated to be plague. I'll go see Zhuang Zhixian right away. ”

"Is there anything I need to do?" Lin Qingdai said urgently.

"You first ask the workers to stop work and go back, and then help me do a few things: First, go to all the tailor shops in the city and make customized onesie, thick masks, and deerskin gloves. The more the merrier. Second, immediately prepare a large amount of Ma Xing Shi Gantang and Reed Stem Soup, all the people in the pharmacy immediately take prevention, and prepare a large number of disinfectant potions for backup, this time the disinfectant potion is different from the previous one, the prescription is Coptis chinensis, Sophora ginseng, Forsythia, Rhubarb, Shengdi, Zhimu ......, use the kind of sprayer I made to spray the suspected evil poison; Third, the whole city purchased simple beds and cotton wool and came back, and immediately arranged the isolation wards, the more the better, and all the rooms that have been repaired are set up into isolation wards! ”

Lin Qingdai hurriedly nodded in agreement, and was about to run to decorate. Du Wenhao stopped her again: "Wait, there is one more important thing - order a simple gas mask!" ”

"Gas masks?"

"Well, to isolate the evil poison in the air, I'll draw you a drawing, and you can just order it." Du Wenhao took pen and paper and drew a sketch, explaining: "Use quicklime and clay half, mix evenly, add potion and stir, knead into lime soil particles the size of mung beans, and then dry in the shade." This potion is the key, and the combination is the same as the previous disinfectant potion, which is effective in killing the plague poison. ”

"Understood."

"I also had to find a blacksmith to order a batch of small light jars with air intakes at the bottom, the other end to match the shape of the nose and mouth, and the edges to be wrapped in soft cotton cloth to prevent air leakage. Make an exhalation opening near the bottom of the mouth and attach the deerskin. Put these things in the jar in turn: gauze, gauze, sawdust, cotton, limestone particles, cotton, gauze, and then fix them in a wire loop, sew them on top of the mask, and add four fixing straps, and you're done. ”

Du Wenhao explained while drawing, and Lin Qingdai quickly understood. folded the drawings, but didn't just leave, and stopped talking. Du Wenhao looked at her suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”

Lin Qingdai said: "I know that the plague is very powerful, can the gas mask you designed really prevent the plague?" ”

"This outbreak is mainly transmitted by droplets, and this kind of gas mask with a potion is certainly not completely preventable, but it is much better than wearing nothing or wrapping it around a scarf, and in comparison, it can greatly reduce the possibility of being infected."

"I have an idea, I don't know if it's appropriate or not."

"Say it quickly, time is pressing."

"Okay, I want to order the raw materials back and assemble them ourselves, first free of charge to the doctor and the person in charge of the inventory, after they are effective, I think there will be a lot of people coming to us to buy ......"

Du Wenhao immediately understood Lin Qingdai's thoughts, and thought to himself that it was right, his modern knowledge could not be given away for nothing for nothing, he had to exchange appropriate benefits for himself, and it was an unshirkable obligation to treat diseases and save people and prevent the epidemic, but he could not lose money and make money to drink, making gas masks for sale, which would be beneficial to patients and themselves, and if necessary, he could also use the money he earned to prevent the epidemic and treat patients.

Therefore, Du Wenhao immediately nodded and said: "Your idea is very good, don't pass on the drawings and recipes, order the parts and assemble them ourselves." First give it to the people who participate in the epidemic prevention work for free, and after the proof is effective, if someone else comes to buy it, we will sell it to make money, you are responsible for this matter, I may not have time to manage it. ”

Lin Qingdai nodded: "Okay, I'll do it!" ”

Du Wenhao took Ma Xing Shi Gantang and Reed Stem Soup, and then sat in a small sedan chair and hurried to the county office.

When passing by the gate of Mianchun Garden, he was stopped by Mei'er and a few other girls. Where did Du Wenhao still have the heart to rub his tongue with them, and said urgently: "Please get out of the way, I have something urgent to find the county master, a very urgent matter!" ”

Mei'er walked to the sedan chair in broken steps, and said in a greasy voice: "Yo! When the matter is done, you turn your face and don't recognize people? ”

Du Wenhao was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "You mean ...... about Zhuang Zhi County?" ”

"Of course! I taught the two of them for so long, my mouth was worn out, and I trained them for a long time before I got on the road. This morning, I went again, and the two little girls blushed and told them that it was done, and the county master and them finally had a round house and made a whole night! It's going to fall apart, hehehe, how can you thank me? ”

If this matter is usual, Du Wenhao heard that he had cured the impotence in Zhuangzhi County, so he was naturally very happy, but now that something big has happened, where is there still the heart to take care of this matter, and said anxiously: "Okay, thank you later, I really have something urgent to find the county master now, you let me go first, it's really urgent!" ”

Mei'er saw that his expression was solemn, not like a shirk, so she waved her hand and asked the girls to get out of the way.

Du Wenhao whispered to Mei'er: "You tell your mother immediately, close the door immediately, and everyone don't go out!" Mark my words! Be sure to! ”

Mei'er was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong?" Is something wrong? ”

"Leave it alone, it won't be long before you know, remember my words! - Let's go! ”

The two sedan chair men carried the sedan chair and trotted forward, and after a while, they came to the county office.

Du Wenhao was waiting in the living room, and after a while, the county magistrate walked in from outside with Master Hou, and said from afar: "Oh, Doctor Du!" Thank you so much! A good thing has been done! Hahaha, it's still your clever method, this acupuncture has almost raised its head, last night the two concubines in this county were even more gentle like water, serving the county is comfortable, that conversation finally got up, and the two concubines are round, the county incense is hopeful, happy! I invite you here today to hold a banquet and entertain you, thank you so much! Hahaha"

Du Wenhao hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Congratulations, my lord!" Congratulations, Greetings! - I'll talk about this banquet later. I have a 100,000-strong urgent matter for you to report! ”
