Chapter Eighty-Seven: Little Hinoki Creek Village (5)
Zhang Wantu and Jiao Changfa walked into the room where the two lepers were interrogated together. @@@
Like a white pig, the two lepers were stripped naked and tied to a Changchun stool, but their heads hung in the air and floated in a large bucket. From last night to now, the second leper's head has been pressed into the water countless times, and several times he thought he would never survive again.
The back and forth on the death line completely frightened the second leper.
In the past 30 days, all the things he has done and the things he has heard, the second leper has honestly explained dozens of times. These contents were interrogated over and over again, and even the two lepers repeatedly begged to no avail.
The torturers did not believe that the second leper had told him all he knew, and they repeatedly pressed his head into the water, forbade him to sleep, and forced him to recall it over and over again.
Zhang Wantu picked up the torture record, flipped through it slightly, and handed it to his assistant, "Compare these with Chen Liu's confession and organize them into materials." ”
An interrogator knocked on the head of the second leper and asked Zhang Wantu with great interest, "Do you want to continue interrogating this?" ”
The second leper trembled all over, couldn't help but tighten his neck, and cried, "I know everything~~~ I've already explained everything~~~"
"Not bad! You continue to interrogate him, and let him give a good account of the situation of the classified arms fighting that has occurred in Hinoxizhuang in the past ten years. ”
In the village, Zhuang Changliu notified a circle in the north and happened to bump into the anxious Widow Zhang.
"Village chief, my Ah Mao has started to cough up blood again, and there is no Lang Zhong in the village, what can I do!"
Widow Zhang's man died because of classification, leaving her with her only child to live on a few acres of thin fields. Zhang Amao has been thin since he was a child, and due to the poverty of his family, he contracted tuberculosis.
Zhuang Changliu showed a very embarrassed look, he stretched out his hands to the villagers, "Oops~~ What can I do!" The Ming army has sealed the village, and no one can get out! ”
Seeing that Liu Hulu was also in the crowd, Zhuang Chang lingered and looked at him several times. Liu Hulu is Zhuang Changliu's hardcore, and many things happened in the village during this time, many of which he asked Liu Hulu to do.
Liu Hulu immediately understood and jumped out, "What's this!" Everyone carried Zhang Amao and went outside the village together to see what those Ming soldiers would do! ”
With Liu Hulu taking the lead, five or six hot-blooded Hakka people immediately stood up, and they carried the sick Zhang Amao onto the ox cart, and drove the ox cart to the entrance of the village.
Zhuang Changliu arranged everything, returned home proudly, and waited for news.
He had only sat down to drink two sips of tea when someone came to report that the ox cart carrying Zhang Amao had been stopped at the entrance of the village by the Ming army officials who had put off the slide lantern last night. The official Ming court has sent a doctor, and the teahouse has also been requisitioned as a clinic, and the Ming army doctor will provide free medical treatment for the people in the village.
"Got it!" Zhuang Changliu was very angry in his heart, the calculation of the Ming Dynasty was too high, and he must not be looked down upon!
In the teahouse at the entrance of the village, there are medical and health signs composed of gourds and ginkgo biloba leaves.
The red cross pattern has the color of Western religion, and the crossing team chose the pattern of gourd and ginkgo biloba leaves, symbolizing the hanging pot to help the world.
Widow Zhang helped Zhang Amao sit crookedly on the stool in front of the diagnosis and treatment table, and Zhang Dongsheng, a hygienist in a white coat, white hat and white mask, ran back and forth, busy measuring Zhang Amao's temperature and blood pressure.
Ping Chongsheng stood by the door of the teahouse from afar, watching all this. Several villagers who sent Zhang Amao off also crowded out of the window of the teahouse to watch the excitement.
"How?" Li Mengling, wearing a white coat, a hat, and a big mask on his face, sat down opposite Zhang Amao.
"Normal blood pressure, body temperature 7.6C." Zhang Dongsheng is a recent graduate of the Dunan Island Health Training Class.
Li Mengling looked at Zhang Amao's face carefully, and saw that Zhang Amao's cheeks were towering, his face was flushed, and his breathing was a little short.
"Look at your tongue."
Li Mengling is in Mandarin, and under the explanation of the people next to him, Zhang Amao knew what Li Mengling meant and stuck his tongue out.
Not long after Zhang Amao's tongue stretched out, he was short of breath, and he couldn't help coughing violently, bending down and spitting out a mouthful of thick phlegm in the crockpot.
Li Mengling got up and looked at the crockpot, half of the yellow-green thick phlegm was scarlet.
He sighed and sat down again, "Please put your hand out." ”
Li Mengling knew that tuberculosis was the tuberculosis of the gentlemen of the guard training team, with yellow-green thick phlegm and coughing up blood, which was also very similar to the symptoms of tuberculosis in the "Textbook for Hygienists".
Li Mengling was originally an apprentice in a medicinal herb shop in Yangzhou, but because the Taiping army broke through Yangzhou, he was exiled to Shanghai, and was recruited by Huafu Foreign Bank to Mingxing Island.
Because of her literacy and knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, Li Mengling was selected to be sent to the Mingxing Island Health Worker Training Course for training.
The Mingxing Island Health Training Course uses the "Hygienist Textbook" of the PLA Army in later generations, and the textbook for hygienists proceeds from the actual situation at the grassroots level of the army, and the content includes the structure and function of the human body, commonly used drugs, basic diagnosis, medical care technology, common diseases, health and epidemic prevention, health service, and war wounded rescue, etc., using the most simple language and the most practical methods to popularize the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
After three months of intensive training, the trainees of the health training class have a comprehensive understanding of modern medical theories, a certain understanding of common and frequently occurring diseases, and a relatively proficient grasp of the rescue techniques for the war wounded. Later, in the battle to liberate Zhoushan, a large number of wounded and sick people emerged, so that the students of these health training classes got a good exercise.
After a lot of surgical practice, Li Mengling's surgical skills have improved greatly. Li Mengling also has an understanding of traditional Chinese medicine, and the "Textbook for Hygienists" has opened the window of modern medicine for him. Relying on the "Hygienist Textbook" and through a large number of clinical practices, Li Mengling quickly grew into an experienced company doctor.
Zhang Amao slowly stretched out his left hand and rested it on his wrist pillow.
Li Mengling put her fingers on it.
The thin Widow Zhang looked haggard, watching Li Mengling withdraw her fingers to take the pulse, get up to wash her hands, she couldn't help but ask, "Sir, this is tuberculosis, right?" Can it be cured? ”
"Don't panic!" Li Mengling took out the wooden stethoscope, put it on Zhang Amao's chest, and listened carefully.
Li Mengling listened while thinking that if I could do sputum culture, I would be able to finally diagnose it, but I haven't learned how to do sputum culture yet, so I must ask the adults of the guard training team for advice next time.
Widow Zhang looked at Li Mengling expectantly. Li Mengling looks very young, and this is a bit similar to Mr. Zatang in Monga Pharmacy.
Putting away the wooden stethoscope, Li Mengling groaned slightly, Zhang Amao's disease is undoubtedly tuberculosis, which has reached the stage of hemoptysis, but fortunately the lungs have not formed a cavity.
Li Mengling has not treated tuberculosis patients, but he has the "Revolution No. 1" anti-inflammatory drug in his medicine box. The teacher of the health training class once said that only by taking "Revolution No. 1" continuously can the symptoms of tuberculosis be controlled.
"Revolution No. 1" is actually a sulfonamide antibacterial drug (a sulfonamide antibacterial drug) prepared by the health team in the laboratory, and it has been given a resounding name for the sake of secrecy.
Although the crossing team can make ~ penicillin in the laboratory, because the bacteria in this time and space are not much resistant, the team decided to put into use sulfonamides first, and use penicillin as a secret weapon to store it temporarily.
The antimicrobial effect of "Revolution No. 1" cannot be compared with most of the antibiotics in later generations. But in the middle of the 19th century, when there were no antibiotics that could be used, "Revolution No. 1" was a kind of "miracle drug", which was enthusiastically sought after after clinical trials in the European and American markets, and the European and American Huafu Company made a lot of money.
According to the "Diagnosis and Treatment Booklet for Common Diseases" issued by the Ministry of Health, if the "Revolution No. 1" is taken continuously for half a month, the complications of tuberculosis can be controlled, and the condition can be greatly alleviated. A complete cure will need to wait until early next year, when streptomycin and other anti-tuberculosis drugs will be mass-produced.
"According to the tongue coating, pulse, and auscultation, there is no doubt that Ling Gongzi is indeed tuberculosis. I will prescribe medicine for you here, so that as long as Gongzi takes it for half a month, his condition can be greatly relieved. ”
"Is this disease really curable? How much does it cost? Widow Zhang's voice trembled a little.
Zhang Amao has been suffering from tuberculosis for two years, and in order to cure this disease, Widow Zhang has spent too much money, and the only few acres of land in the family have been pawned out.
"The cure is a good cure, but it is a little troublesome to cut off the root, and you need to use the medicine for several months in a row." Li Mengling took out the medicine from the medicine box and handed it over with a smile, "This is the first course of medicine, it is free, and you will not be charged a copper plate." ”
"What, no money!" Widow Zhang couldn't believe it.
Li Mengling explained to her with a smile that the Xingming Army is an army led by the Baath Party and an army that serves the Chinese people wholeheartedly.
"This is the first course of medicine, so when the second and third courses are treated, the medicine must be very expensive!" Liu Hulu stood outside the window of the teahouse and said with bad intentions.
"This medicine is expensive. If he can run errands for the imperial court, the cost of medical treatment and medicine will be waived. Li Mengling looked at Zhang Amao's thin body and shook his head, "But looking at this body, if you want to serve the imperial court, you have to raise it for at least a few years." ”
Widow Zhang looked at Zhang Amao lovingly, "As long as this medicine works, even if the family goes bankrupt, I will cure the child's illness." ”
"Don't worry, Mother Zhang! If Huixizhuang becomes a collective farm, the villagers will be free to see a doctor and take medicine. ”
Seeing that Li Mengling's diagnosis and treatment had ended, Ping Chongsheng, who had been silent, began to gush about the new policy of the Daming Collective Farm.
Liu Hulu pouted when he heard this, he was paid every month, he didn't need money to see a doctor and take medicine, and he still had a pension subsidy when he was old, is it so good? He turned his head and ran to Zhuang Changliu's house.
What the! Zhang Amao took the medicine of Dr. Ming Jun, his condition became stable, and he has returned home. Now many people in the village are running to see doctors and listen to the Ming officials preach the benefits of collective farms.
Zhuang Changliu just heard a report that several teams of Ming troops entered the village, sent rice, vegetables and silver taels to the door and poor people, and also helped to work, which was the court's condolences to the Chinese people.
This combined with the news sent by Liu Hulu, Zhuang Changliu's heart suddenly became up and down, Daming's means are too clever! Zhang Hongtou and other members of the joint defense team are all on trial in the public office, and if the working group envelops the hearts of the villagers, the fire below may burn on their heads.
Forget it, I can't afford to provoke it, I can afford to hide!
Zhuang Changliu was a little reluctant, remembering that there was a secret passage on the bamboo wall near his house, which could lead to the outside of the village, so he immediately asked Liu Hulu to check it first.
After Liu Hulu went out, he found that there were also Ming guards outside the village, and he couldn't run out at all.
Hearing Liu Hulu's return, Zhuang Changliu was a little ownerless. He took a few sips of water and calmed down a bit, "Don't panic, we haven't done anything during this time." Moreover, even if we do something, it is still indignant, and they are really too deceitful! ”
Things have come to this point, Zhuang Changliu is helpless, he can only see the move.
In Liu Minyi's house in the south of Huixi Village, Huang Churi looked at Liu Minyi with blank eyes. He had just reconnoitred it, and the other side of the river was all guarded by the Ming army, and he couldn't get through it at all.
"What to do?" Huang Churi has some six gods without masters.
"What are you afraid of, where is the courage to fight by classification!" Liu Minyi's eyes widened, "What we are fighting against is only those Guang Yan, not the Ming Dynasty." If this Ming Dynasty helps Guang Lao deal with us, then the immortals will fight the immortals and fight the monkeys to the sky. ”
The Fujian people relied on courage to fight, and Huang Churi's heart was horizontal, "Yes, the head has a scar the size of a bowl." However, this Ming Dynasty won't really help Guang Lao deal with us! ”
The strength of the Ming army is already a recognized fact in northern Taiwan. Thinking that he might have to deal with the Ming army, Huang Churi couldn't help but be a little afraid.
Looking at Huang Churi's timid appearance, Liu Minyi was also deflated.
The Min people fought with the Hakka people for resources, such as fields and water, which were profitable. If you want to confront the Ming Dynasty, it is purely to send you to death, Huang Churi has no courage, and Liu Minyi does not have the arrogance.
