Chapter 29: Dialectic

Zhang Zhang recalled the "**" epidemic in later generations, even if medicine in the 21st century was so prosperous, there was nothing to do about it at the beginning, which caused an unprecedented and strict impact.

Zhang Lizheng was pondering Gu Langzhong's words, but he heard Liu Langzhong's voice: "Gu Langzhong, you are the most famous Langzhong in Qixia County, I am afraid that this time I have also lost my eyes." The patient has a fever and chills, but there is no runny nose and cough, which is not a symptom of wind chill! ”

As soon as Liu Langzhong's words landed, the Langzhong people in Huang County nodded yes one after another, and Liu Langzhong couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Gu Langzhong didn't care, and said: "The old man has been seeing a doctor for forty years, and he has seen the most evidence of wind and cold. Wind and cold are ever-changing-" Gu Langzhong paused, his face with disdain, "Don't you know, the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing's senior, who has written a book "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" in his whole life, has thousands of symptoms, how can you summarize all the symptoms in one sentence?!" ”

Gu Langzhong moved out of the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing, which was obviously very lethal. Zhang Zhang listened carefully, and also felt that Gu Langzhong's words made some sense, there are so many types of flu, and the symptoms are indeed different.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Langzhong finished speaking, the Langzhong people in Qixia County immediately echoed it, and Liu Langzhong and the Langzhong in Huangxian County immediately weakened by three points.

Liu Langzhong had a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, and was about to speak, but he didn't expect Gu Langzhong to speak first: "Liu Langzhong, the old man has also heard your name in Qixia County, and now it seems that it is better to be famous than to meet!" ”

The Zhonglangzhong of Qixia County also laughed, Gu Langzhong, the number one person in his county, could overwhelm Liu Langzhong of Huang County, which was really a happy thing!

Du Langzhong, who lived in the same tent with Zhang Li, also stood beside Zhang Li at some point, and couldn't help laughing out loud at this moment.

The Lang Zhong people in Huang County were already angry in their hearts, and when they saw that Lang Zhong in Penglai County was also laughing at them, one of them jumped out and said angrily: "You Penglai County don't even have a famous character this time, and you dare to laugh at us?!" ”

These words brought all the Langzhong in Penglai County, and the Langzhong in Penglai County suddenly turned as pale as pig's liver, and they couldn't find anything to fight back.

Zhang Zhang was also angry in his heart, and was about to speak, but Liu Langzhong spoke first.

Liu Langzhong's face was full of anger, glared at Gu Langzhong, gritted his teeth and said: "Gu Langzhong, there were some things I wanted to say to Lu Yiling, but I didn't expect you to deceive people too much!" Now in front of everyone, I'm not afraid to say it, everyone give me a witness, don't rob me of my credit when the time comes! ”

Upon hearing this, everyone present was shocked, could it be that Liu Langzhong had discovered some secret? Or is there something heavy dà to discover? I actually want to be alone to give Lu Yi's order, I'm afraid it's not trivial!

Sure enough, Liu Langzhong sneered again and again, obviously angry: "Hmph! I've found out in detail today, and at the beginning of this outbreak, it wasn't people who died first, but—"

Lieutenant General Liu Lang's voice was long, and everyone pricked up their ears.

I only heard Liu Langzhong say in a deep voice: "When the plague broke out at the beginning, a large number of rats died!" ”

These words were like a thunderclap that stunned everyone!

Zhang Zhang was stunned suddenly: - Plague?!

The tension brain is racing rapidly, and there are four common types of plague: mild, glandular, pulmonary, and septic. The most severe is pneumonic plague, and people who are not rescued in time will die of heart failure and shock in more than two to three days. Before dying, he was highly cyanotic, and his skin was often black-purple, so he was called the Black Death.

Obviously, the current patient in Loess Mountain is not pneumonic plague, but the situation is somewhat complicated and cannot be generalized.

This is because bubonic plague, pneumonic plague, and septicaemic plague can all develop from mild plague. Mild plague has symptoms such as irregular fever and body aches, but generally the symptoms are not severe, and it is easy to mistake people for other diseases.

Everyone immediately began to discuss enthusiastically, and it was obvious that the word "plague" was extremely lethal!

"What are you arguing about! Be quiet! A loud voice came into Zhang Li's ears, and Zhang Li looked at it, only to see Mu Yicheng in a purple robe and the people from Jishi Medical Society came over.

The voice just now was shouted out by Lu Yiling, and Doctor Mu calmed his face and didn't speak, and everyone suddenly felt a little upset in their hearts.

The people of Jishi Medical Club all looked at Mu Yicheng, obviously waiting for Mu Yicheng to speak first.

Doctor Mu glanced at the Lang Zhong who were present, and said loudly: "What exactly is the plague this time has not yet been determined. ”

Liu Langzhong and Gu Langzhong stretched their necks, listened carefully to every word that Mu Yicheng said, and thought about how to follow Mu Yicheng's words, curry favor, and add points to their own entry into the Jishi Medical Society.

Mu Yicheng looked at Liu Langzhong and nodded slightly: "Liu Langzhong, you can find that at the beginning of the epidemic, a large number of rats died, which is very good!" ”

Liu Langzhong's blood surged, he was excited, and hurriedly said loudly: "Lord Yicheng is serious, and it is within the villain's business to inquire about the source of the disease." ”

Mu Yicheng glanced at Gu Langzhong again and said, "What you said also has some truth, typhoid fever is indeed a wide variety, and it cannot be generalized. ”

Gu Langzhong originally thought that Mu Yicheng would reprimand him, but he didn't expect to praise him twice, and muttered in his mouth: "Master Xie Yicheng, the villain doesn't dare, and the villain hasn't yet dialectically figured out what the specific disease is." ”

Mu Yicheng nodded and said: "If it is said that it is the plague, but there is no 'pimple plague', the patient is not critically ill, but the death of a large number of rats should not be taken lightly; ”

"Master Yicheng is a good opinion!" Doctor Song echoed loudly in a timely manner, causing everyone in the Jishi Medical Society to be slightly dissatisfied.

Doctor Song didn't care, and bowed down and asked, "Master Yicheng, what should we do now?" Everyone is waiting for your old man's instructions. ”

Doctor Mu said: "What kind of disease the patient is still needs to be observed. Continue to apply the medicine tomorrow, the old man has prepared a large number of face towels, and everyone will bring them from tomorrow, and you must ensure that you don't get sick. ”

Everyone suddenly sang the praises of virtue, and praised Mu Yicheng for thinking thoughtfully.

Mu Yicheng pondered for a moment and said, "Liu Langzhong and Gu Langzhong, the two of you came to the meeting at night. ”

As soon as they heard this, Liu Langzhong and Gu Langzhong were immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked them. The rest of Lang Zhong all showed envious looks on their faces, but everyone also knew in their hearts that they were not qualified to compete with the two of them at all.

After Mu Yicheng left with the people of Jishi Medical Society, Gu Huang and Langzhong went back with Langzhong in their own county.

Zhang Zhang felt a little bored, so he walked back to his tent to rest.

Early the next morning, Doctor Song took Zhang Zhang and others to Xishan again.

When he walked to the blockade, a military academy saluted Doctor Song, and then said with some anxiety: "Master Doctor, more than 100 people were sent over from the mountain in the east last night, and many people in the east were sick. ”

Doctor Song nodded with a calm face and said, "At the morning meeting today, Doctor Lu had already sued us. How did you die last night? ”

The military academy had a bitter face and whispered: "Listen to the general manager, more than 80 people died here yesterday!" ”

Doctor Song was taken aback, obviously the death toll was much beyond his expectations: "What? It's troublesome now, there were only more than ten dead people in the past, why did it suddenly increase so much?! Could it be the plague?! ”

As soon as he heard the word "plague", the military academy showed a terrifying look on his face, took two steps back, and said, "Master Doctor, you said it was the plague......

Doctor Song hurriedly said: "No, I just said it casually, even Doctor Mu has not yet diagnosed what the disease is, what I said doesn't count." ”

After saying this, Doctor Song greeted him, and Zhang Zhang and the others followed him to the mountain.

Today's situation is obviously much worse than yesterday's, and several sheds have even changed people - the original owner had died last night, and now there was a new patient from Dongshan who had been forcibly sent over by the soldiers this morning.

Everyone was wearing face towels, but Doctor Song refused to enter the house lightly. He put the medicinal herbs outside the shed, ordered Du Langzhong to shout a few words outside the house, and then rushed to the next shed as if fleeing for his life.

The situation is getting worse and worse, many patients are already sick and unconscious, and the family members are begging and begging to keep the pace of Doctor Song.

After only half the journey, Doctor Song said to Zhang Li: "Now that the situation is bad, this doctor must report the situation here to Doctor Lu as soon as possible!" You are young and in good health, so you will continue to distribute the unfinished medicinal herbs! ”

Before Zhang Zhang could say anything against it, Doctor Song led several other Lang Zhong away.

Zhang Zhang sighed, looked at the medicinal herb bag on the ground, and began to scold his mother in his heart.

However, when he thought of the desperate eyes of the patients, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and after all, it was the doctor's benevolent thoughts that prevailed.

After Dr. Song and the others left, Zhang Zhang decided to take the risk of taking a closer look at the patient, trying to find out what the epidemic was.

Zhang Zhang came to a shed, which he came to yesterday, because the shed was built under a locust tree, so Zhang Li was quite impressed.

Zhang Zhang first made an announcement outside the shed, and soon several family members of the patient came out and respectfully welcomed Zhang Zhang into the shed.

As soon as he entered the shed, the first patient Zhang saw was a young man of twenty-seven or eighteen. The man was red-faced, beads of sweat on his forehead, and was clearly suffering from a high fever. Standing next to the young man was a woman in her forties, this woman was in rags, and her eyes were full of nervousness and anticipation when she looked at Zhang Li.

Next to the woman, there was a girl of seven or eight years old, who also looked at Zhang Li nervously.

Zhang Zhang asked softly: "This lady, is he your son?" ”

The woman nodded hurriedly, and said with red eyes: "It's my son, who has been sick for five days......"

Zhang Li bowed his head slightly, touched the patient's pulse, and sure enough, the pulse was still a string pulse.

Zhang Li looked at the tongue again, and the tongue was red, and the tongue coating was white and thick.

Zhang Li noticed that the patient's eyes were very red, and when he looked at the tongue just now, he found that the patient's pharynx was obviously congested, so he asked, "How do you feel, can you answer my question?" ”

The young patient was very weak, his lips moved, but he could not make a sound.

As soon as the tension pondered, the pharynx was congested and swollen, and the vocal cords would definitely be involved, and the patient seemed speechless at all.

Zhang Zhang turned his head and asked the woman: "Auntie, what are your son's symptoms, you can tell me in detail." ”

The woman glanced at her son, tears welled up in her eyes, and she choked up, "My son is mainly feverish, aching all over, and thirsty, very thirsty, and has to drink a lot of water every day. ”

Zhang Li was stunned for a moment and said, "Thirsty? ”

"Well," the woman nodded, "and the strangest thing is that he urins very little every day, and he poops very little. ”

When Zhang Zhang heard this, he was shocked, and instantly thought of several similar diseases in the later generations!
