[Second Update.] 】

Huang Yong, the governor of Xiangzhou, and Han Gang often meet, but they haven't seen each other much recently. Surrounded by a middle-aged scholar whose name is very familiar, but the person is very unfamiliar.

Ordinary and a little disappointing, his eyebrows are upright and peaceful, not like he has a deep hatred of blood, and he doesn't look like he has a stunt. If he is asked to draw the bow, it is estimated that there will be five or six buckets, not to mention the cornices and walls.

Han Gang withdrew his attention from Huang Shang and saluted Huang Yong. After a few words of greeting, Han Gang's gaze turned back to the people beside Huang Yong, "This is Brother Ling?" ”

Huang Yong let go of half a step out, and raised his hand to introduce his cousin: "Brother Huang Shang, the word is Mianzhong." The tribute of Nanjianzhou, Fujian Province is the first. "I'm very proud.

Huang Sheng stepped forward and bowed: "Student Huang Shang, meet Long Tu." ”

"It turned out to be Mian Zhong." Han Gang returned the favor, nodded and smiled, and praised: "Being able to pull tribute in Fujian is no longer easier than Zhongjinshi." And it is also the first tribute, Mian Zhong must be very good at learning, and this branch will definitely be able to be at the top of the gold list. ”

"Long Tu praises it, and the students dare not be ashamed." Huang Sheng sighed gloomily, "Standing after the year, he is not yet on the yellow list, and he has been in the field for many years, far less than Long Tu's first tribute to the ninth high school jinshi." ”

"It's just a fluke." Han Gang was about to blush as he spoke.

The military of Nanjianzhou is the Yanping Army, and the first time they met, Huang Yong introduced himself as being born in Yanping, Fujian. However, I think Huang Yong can't do the first place in Nanjianzhou. The fierce competition in Fujian Road Gongju is twice that of Jiangnan, five times that of Kaifeng, and ten times that of Shaanxi.

"I remember Pucheng Zhangzhuang Yuan Ziping [Zhang Heng], when the title of the gold list was over, it was established; Zheng Zhuangyuan Yifu [Zheng Zheng] is also a Cube High School that is past the year, and there are many late bloomers, so why should he lose himself. ”

There is a saying in the world that 'thirty old Ming Jing, fifty young Jinshi', but in fact, most of the top students and first in the calendar after Renzong are in their twenties. The imperial examination is already a very fair selection exam, and if you are really talented and have that ability, you can basically pass in your twenties when you are in the best stage of reaction, energy, memory, creativity and learning ability. The youngest Wang Gongchen, seventeen years old, the first Jinshi, the champion and Tanhua took it together. Han Gangju's Zhang Heng and Zheng Zheng are both thirty-two years old in high school, which is already very old.

Of course, Huang Sheng knew this, and Han Gang's words were just comforting, but the kindness released, Huang Yong and Huang Shang both felt it.

Huang Shang bowed again: "Thank you Long Tu for explaining, the student understands." ”

After introducing his brother, Huang Yong looked behind Han Gang.

A middle-aged man in his thirties and forties stood respectfully, with a very inconspicuous appearance, drooping at the ends of his eyes and eyebrows, and a sad face. When Han Gang greeted him, he didn't say a word. But if you can follow Han Gang, you will naturally not be an ordinary person. I brought my cousins, but I don't know who Han Gang bringed?

Without waiting for Huang Yong's signal, Huang Shang spoke first: "Long Tu is a mortal on his side, I don't know the name of Brother Taigao?" ”

Huang Shang inquired, and Li Dexin stepped forward and arched his hand: "Hui Xiucai, surnamed Li, double name Dexin, Yanzhou Yibuyi." ”

'Li Dexin? Huang Shang and Huang Yong frowned at the same time, isn't this the name of the famous doctor who came out of Fulong Mountain?

On the occasion of meeting with him, he appeared by Han Gang's side, so Han Gang's plan could be determined. With joy in his heart, Huang Yong's originally serious expression also relaxed.

"But Divine Doctor Li in Fulong Mountain?!" Huang Shang asked in surprise.

Li Dexin hurriedly waved his hand and said modestly: "I will never dare to be a miracle doctor, but I am just acting on orders." The secret technique of planting pox is also taught by Long Tu, and Dexin just follows it. ”

One sentence leaked all the bottom, Huang Yong and Huang Sheng looked at Han Gang in surprise, Han Gang did not move, and raised his hand to invite: "Speak in the advanced hall." ”

The guest is as he pleases, where can Huang Yong and Huang Shang have opinions. Entering the hall together, the guests sat down, and waited for the veterans who served in the house to come up and serve the tea and soup, and after taking a few sips patiently, they heard Han Gang speak slowly: "The situation outside the Caosi Yamen, I guess Uncle Chang has seen it." ”

Huang Yong bowed his head: "It was Huang Yong's ineffective governance of the people, which caused the people to gather outside the Caosi Yamen." ”

"Where can I blame Chang Bo." Han Gang smiled, "It's because Han Gang acted carelessly. ”

Huang Yong put down the teacup, sat upright, and said solemnly: "Huang Yong has something, I don't know whether to ask." ”

Han Gang held the teacup in both hands, feeling the heat from his palm: "What Uncle Chang wants to ask, Han Gang can probably guess." Do you want to ask if the pox treatment is effective? ”

Of course not, Huang Yong wanted to ask where the pox technique came from, and also wanted to ask Han Gang how he planned to solve the current problem of the people in Xiangzhou - with public opinion as the basis, Huang Yong asked himself to share the credit from Han Gang's hands, it would not be difficult at all - but since Han Gangken talked about the topic related to the pox seeding technique, he had no opinion, and arched his hand, "That's right, can Long Tu solve Huang Yong's doubts?" ”

"With 2,000 people as evidence, it is basically certain that it is valid, and Chang Bo must have inquired about it." Han Gang smiled slightly, but there was a bit of sarcasm.

Huang Yong's expression did not move, and Huang Shang spoke: "Divine Doctor Li can plant pox on 2,000 people in six villages in a few months with the strength of one person, presumably the technique of planting pox should not be very difficult." ”

Han Gang was very frank: "The technique of planting pox is actually very simple to do, as long as there are pox seedlings, it is not difficult to plant pox at all." ”

"I don't know where the method of pox comes from?" Huang Shang immediately asked, "It's Longtu's own creation...... Or is it from the same Sun Daochang who once rescued Long Tu? ”

"Half and half. The origin of the pox method did come from Master Sun. "Han Gang people's predecessors and successors respected the fictional Taoist priest as a teacher," the same as the technique of healing muscles and bones, it was obtained by Han Gang when he was sick in the abandoned temple of Daozuo, and chatted with Master Sun. ”

Hearing Han Gang start to talk about the ancients, Huang Sheng and Huang Yong both subconsciously leaned forward a little and listened attentively.

Han Gang's eyes were misty, his tone was deep, and he was immersed in the past, "The pox method is called the method of eliminating poison and pox by Master Sun. The so-called anti-poisoning is to eliminate the toxicity in acne so that acne does not harm people's lives. The pox pulp is first removed from the patient who has been cured from the acne, which is called a seedling. Plant the seedlings on another healthy person, wait for that person to get sick and have pox, if he does not die, then take the pox pulp from him and plant it on the body of a third person, and so on, at least seven generations will be passed on, and the pox seedlings obtained will be mature seedlings with reduced toxicity. If you get acne once, you won't get it a second time, as long as you rely on mature seedlings and let people get mild acne first, you don't have to worry about it anymore. ”

This kind of anti-pox method is unheard of, but it sounds very reasonable. If you are sick and do not die, you must have less poison than the sick and dead person, and of course the pox vaccine taken from him is less toxic. Continuous cycle of poisoning, the most ripe seedlings obtained after the most are definitely not hurtful pox seedlings.

Huang Yong nodded again and again, looking at Han Gang's eyes with a little more respect, he could come up with such a wonderful pox planting method, it must be Sun Simiao and Sun Zhenren.

But Huang Sheng didn't nod, his face sank like water: "...... What if someone dies in one of those seven times? ”

Huang Yong was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly looked at Han Gang.

"Throw away all your work and start all over again." Han Gang's cold voice made people shudder.

Huang Yong's hands trembled, and his voice trembled: "It's difficult...... Is it ......?"

"But in Cochin?!" Huang Shang asked in a deep voice.

Han Gang shook his head and smiled: "Uncle Chang and Mian Zhong misunderstood. How dare Han Gang use such an immoral thing? He stretched out his finger and gestured, "Including adults, the mortality rate from acne is 20%, which means that ten people get sick, and two cannot be saved." But if you only count young children, it's as high as 40%. According to two percent, the survival rate of the first time is eighty percent, the second time is six percent of four, the third time is only five percent of one, and the seventh time, there are only two percent left. If there were 100 people who participated in the production of pox vaccine at the beginning, and only 20 people were left after the end, would this be killing people or saving people?! ”

This calculation is certainly problematic if you think about it, but it is enough to fool people. Huang Yong and Huang Shang both pursed their lips and couldn't answer.

Han Gang smiled bitterly at himself, "If you say it, I don't know how many people will be harmed." Therefore, even if he had the technique of planting pox, Han Gang had always hidden it in his heart and did not dare to say it openly. In order to save people, kill people first, Han Gang can't do this. ”

The hall was silent for a long time, and Huang Sheng said with some hesitation: "If you can create pox seedlings and benefit hundreds of millions of people, only eighty people......

Han Gang sank his face: "Human life is at stake, how can it be the number of people!" ”

Huang Shang lowered his head and said, "It's Huang Shang who lost his words." But he immediately looked up again and asked, "But where did the pox vaccine that Long Tu is using now come from?!" ”

"From Guangxi." Han Gang went on to tell his story: "With the method of eliminating poison and planting pox, Han Gang has been thinking hard for many years, but he has never had a suitable solution. It wasn't until a strange incident was discovered in Guangxi that it was suddenly opened. ”

"What wonder?" The Huang brothers spoke in unison.

Han Gang doesn't sell Guanzi, "When Han Gang arrived in Guangxi, it was when the city of Yongzhou was broken and thieves were raging. At that time, the people's livelihood in Yongzhou was withering, and after the thieves retreated, in order to cultivate the fields abandoned by the war as soon as possible, Han Gang sent people to collect a large number of cattle. There are many cattle in Guangxi, and there are many families who raise dozens or hundreds of cattle for sale, but few of these families have acne - at that time, because of the miasma in Guangxi, coupled with the military disaster in Yongzhou, the people were displaced, Han Gang was very concerned about various epidemics, but unexpectedly discovered this. ”

"Why is that?" Huang Yong asked in surprise.

"Because they've all been exposed to cowpox!" Han Gang unravels the mystery.
