Chapter 668: Thermometer

Cultivators have never joked about Dao Ancestors, so after Sun Simiao said this, Li Yuanba couldn't help but be moved.

Li Ke naturally understood this truth, and when he heard Sun Simiao's words, he stopped, looked at Li Yuanba and persuaded him:

"Uncle Four Emperors, since Doctor Sun is so sincere, do you want to give him another chance, after all, everyone in the world knows the name of Doctor Sun, if there is Doctor Sun taking the lead, I believe that all the famous doctors in the world will respond, and when the time comes, I will still worry that the "Materia Medica" will not be compiled?"

Okay, these two people are singing red face and white face, and they came here to sing double reeds together?

Li Yuanba turned his head and glanced at Li Ke, was silent for a while and said, "Okay, for the sake of the faces of the people in this world, this king will believe you once!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Sun Simiao was overjoyed and said: "Lao Dao will definitely do his best to compile the "Shennong Materia Medica", and live up to the trust of the people of the world, His Majesty, and the prince!" ”

"Alright, I don't need to say some pretty things anymore!" Li Yuanba waved his hand, took out a small piece of rice from his arms, and said: "This is the official seal that this king begs His Majesty the Emperor to make for you, you will go here tomorrow to order a mao!" ”

"This, this is ......" Sun Simiao took the things thrown by Li Yuanba and glanced at them, and said with some surprise: "Hantang Medical College? Where is this going? ”

"Hantang Medical College, naturally, is to carry forward my Chinese medicine skills!"

Li Yuanba fortunately walked back and continued: "If you want to compile the "Shennong Materia Medica", you have to gather all the virtuous and famous doctors in the Tang Dynasty in one place, and the territory of the Taiyi Department is too small to fit so many people. Therefore, His Majesty and the King have consulted and decided to establish a medical school, one of which can gather the world's famous doctors; The two can recruit good doctors and teach them the art of medicine. ”

Sun Simiao's eyes were full of absurdity. Said: "This ...... Widely accept medicine and teach the arts, but the old way is okay here. Presumably, Your Highness, you also know that my Huaxia doctor has always been a teacher from father to son, teacher to apprentice, if you want to open the door to teach on such a large scale, I am afraid that none of those doctors are willing to do it! ”

"You don't have to worry about that!" Li Yuanba shook his head and said, "As long as Doctor Sun agrees, everything will be easy to do at the medical school!" ”

"Good. As long as it is beneficial to the people of the Tang Dynasty and to the descendants of the Tang Dynasty, Lao Dao is willing to go to the Hantang Medical College to receive the position of vice president! Sun Simiao replied simply, it seems that he has the heart to carry forward his medical skills.

"So, it's a deal!" Li Yuanba nodded, clapped his palms, and said, "Come here, show the things to Doctor Sun!" ”

"No!"

Several soldiers answered and stepped forward. At the same time, the tray in his hand was also opened.

All the things on the tray were revealed, and these trays were all strange things that seemed strange to Sun Simiao.

A few that looked like glass tubes, a few with something that looked like leather tubes, a few clear glasses. There are also two models with wooden wheels that look like wheelchairs.

"Your Highness, what are these things?" Sun Simiao felt very strange, he had never seen such a strange thing.

Li Yuanba laughed. I picked up a glass tube.

The glass tube is only as thick as two grains of rice, and only two and a half inches long. There was something in the little pipe, and the little silver thread dragged to the bottom, as if it could drill into it with a flick.

In addition, the most surprising thing is that the scale is also painted on the thin tube, which looks very strange.

Sun Simiao pinched the small tube in his hand, looked at the scale on it curiously, and said, "Your Highness, what is this for?" ”

Li Yuan said domineeringly: "Doctor Sun, I don't know if you can diagnose typhoid fever and warm fever by yourself in the homes of ordinary people?" ”

"The Difficult Scripture. "Fifty-Eight Difficulties" contains: 'There are five typhoid fevers, there are strokes, there are typhoid fevers, there are damp temperatures, there are fevers, and there are warm diseases. Sun Simiao thought for a while and continued: "If the initial state of the time may be difficult to see, but if the typhoid fever is severe, it is difficult for ordinary people to see it. ”

"If this king tells Doctor Sun that with this thing, it will no longer be difficult to diagnose typhoid fever, what does Doctor Sun think?" Li Yuanba looked at Sun Simiao and said.

Sun Simiao was stunned for a moment, and said with some consternation: "Such a gadget, can you see the disease of typhoid fever?" ”

"It's nature!"

Li Yuanba nodded and said, "This thing is called a thermometer, and its upper part is a glass tube, and the lower end is a glass bubble. In the bubble and at the lower end of the tube were pure mercury, and the glass tube was marked with a scale. According to the king's records from an ancient script, the body temperature of our normal people is kept in a relatively constant state, and its normal fluctuation range is between 35 degrees and 37 degrees. ”

"Degrees?" Sun Simiao was confused when he heard this, "Your Highness, what is this?" ”

"Oh......" Li Yuanba reacted at this time, the current Datang people don't know what degrees are and what degrees Celsius is.

He smiled and said, "This 'degree', the full name is Celsius, is a unit of measurement. Refers to a standard atmospheric pressure...... Hi, let me tell you this, this water can boil the water at a normal temperature, with a high temperature of 100 degrees, and the temperature of the boiling water is divided into 100 equal parts, each equal part is 1 degree, and the question of the person is between 35 and 37 degrees. ”

"Oh, how can there be such a miracle in the world?" Sun Simiao felt amazing.

"If you don't believe me, you can try!" Li Yuanba doesn't care, anyway, people's curiosity can never be satisfied.

"Then let's try it!" Sun Simiao nodded, "Dare to ask Your Highness, how to use this thing?" Do you put it in your mouth? ”

Li Yuanba smiled and said: "Under normal circumstances, the body temperature measurement is the most constant in the armpits, and Doctor Sun will clamp this big head filled with mercury under the liquid, and it will only take a cup of tea to measure your body temperature!" ”

"Okay, let's try it later!" Sun Simiao took off his robe and directly stuffed the thermometer under the liquid.

"Whew, it's a little cold." Sun Simiao exhaled and said.

Li Yuanba just shook his head and did not speak.

After a cup of tea, when Sun Simiao took out the thermometer under his armpit, the small silver line had climbed to thirty-six degrees five.

"Huh? It's moved, I understand, the little silver thread in it really moved! Your Highness, this thing really works! Sun Simiao became excited like a child.

"Don't worry, let's find a few more people to try!" Li Yuanba motioned to Sun Simiao not to worry, but summoned a few soldiers behind him, and used the remaining thermometers in the tray to let them try again. (To be continued.) )
