Chapter 769: The First Calamity Was Man-Made
When I came to Qian's house, in the patch quilt on the earthen kang, there was a little girl who looked to be about ten years old.
The little girl was as thin as a skeleton, and the disappearance was so severe that it felt like there was only one skin left.
However, the little girl's belly is bulging, just like those pica patients who eat too much soil, because the food that cannot be digested is accumulated in the abdomen, causing the belly to become more and more bulging, but the body is getting thinner and thinner.
Sure enough, it's serious.
Yan Hua stepped forward and moved his fingers slightly, and three gold wires were wrapped around the little girl's wrist.
It turned out to be a suspensory filament to diagnose the pulse.
When the village chief saw this hand, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
But when he saw that Yan Hua hadn't taken off his gloves, he calmed down again, and he always felt that this little girl was more like pretentious and a little unreliable.
Yan Hua doesn't care what others think.
Even if she doesn't take off her gloves, she can accurately diagnose the other party's pulse with just the internal force behind her.
When the gold wire was taken back by her, Yan Hua did not forget to disinfect it.
After all, it's a plague, and it's not advisable to cross-infect or something.
The last thing that is lacking in the interstellar age is all kinds of deadly viruses.
There may not be many different viruses carried by two individuals, and direct skin-to-skin contact, droplet contact, and blood contact with each other may be an exchange of viruses and an opportunity for the upgrade of a new virus.
So in the interstellar era, not to mention the intimate act of kissing and hugging, it is illegal to shake hands without protection.
Every new virus is followed by a small outbreak.
If small outbreaks are not suppressed, it is over.
Before the trip into space, a virus outbreak may only be global, and each country will control it in time, and the chaos will be over in a month.
A virus outbreak in the interstellar era will implicate most of the star fields and hundreds of planets with developed life.
The cost of a sweep of this magnitude is immeasurable.
The culprit was searched for, and the nine clans were wiped out together, which was not enough to make the people angry.
When people get along with each other, those with high mental power will be isolated by a layer of mental power on their bodies, and those without mental power will wear isolation protective clothing, which will be tightly wrapped from head to toe.
Fortunately, the interstellar isolation protective clothing is light and insensible, and if you are used to wearing it, you will basically ignore its existence.
Yan Hua, who has grown up in such a self-disciplined environment for 233 years, is born with this aspect of cleanliness, even if he is now slowly adapting to contact with people without isolation, but sometimes he is still very careful about proportion.
That's it.
No matter what she uses, she will disinfect and disinfect in time to prevent other patients from being re-infected.
It also does not carry any pathogenic bacteria, which increases the risk of infection for yourself.
And Yan Yu was ordered by Yan Hua to watch from a distance from beginning to end, and he was not allowed to touch anything.
Yan Yu was obedient and only helped her sister hold the medicine basket.
The village chief saw everything in his eyes, and then watched Yan Hua quietly diagnose and treat the daughter of the Qian family.
Yan Hua determined that the girl was not pica, but had worms in her abdomen.
When Yan Hua said this, the village chief was stunned.
"The girl is saying that so many people have died in the village not because of the plague, but because of small bugs?"
Yan Hua nodded: "Don't underestimate this little bug, they are not ordinary bugs, but Gu worms." ”
"Dare to ask the village chief, can there be people in the village who raise Gu worms? Or are there Hmong people living in the village? ”
Before the village chief could recover from the shock, he was stunned by Yan Hua's question.
After a pause, the village chief still confirmed again in disbelief: "The girl is sure that this plague is not a plague, but caused by Gu worms?" ”
Yan Hua is very sure of this: "Yes, this woman now has thousands of eggs in her abdomen, once hatched, she will die quickly, the eggs will crawl out of the corpse, and then parasitize other living bodies, and the cycle will continue until there is no living creature in this area." ”
"This is clearly someone who raises Gu here, cultivates a sufficient number of Gu worms with living people, and finally lets the Gu worms fight, and the one who stays until the end is the Gu King of this Gu."
"With so many bugs alive in your body, how can you not get sick? Insect poison invades the body, and this poison should not be underestimated. ”
"The stakes are high, and I ask the village chief to think about it carefully."
The village chief was cold, his face was blue, and he didn't know whether he was trembling with anger or trembling with fear.
After a moment, he really thought of such a person.
"Speaking of which, there really is such a person. About three months ago, a person fell at the entrance of the village covered in blood, and it was the Qian family who kindly picked him up. ”
"At that time, no one took this matter seriously, but that person was dressed as a Miao person."
"It's just that the man was recuperating here for less than half a month, and his health was better, so he left twenty taels of snowflake silver and left."
"Everyone knows this, the Qian family has made such a fortune, and it was a good thing to remember at that time."
"Speaking of which, this strange plague really broke out shortly after the Miao people left."
The village chief's eyes widened: "Could it be that the Miao people are ungrateful, and they will take revenge?" ”
Yan Hua thought thoughtfully: "No one knows the reason why this is suitable, but if my prediction is right, the eggs of the Gu worm must have been attached to the silver two in advance and stayed." After he left, the Gu worm slowly hatched, and then broke out in the first household that came into contact with it. ”
"The village chief can think about it carefully, which family is the first to feel unwell?"
The existence frowned: "This is really not clear, the old man only remembers that this plague appeared suddenly, and as soon as it became ill, it was the appearance ......of four or five households, but the Qian family was the most seriously ill, only this little daughter had nothing to do before, and then took care of her parents, brother and sister-in-law, so she contracted the disease." ”
"That's right!"
The village chief's eyes lit up: "I remember, the first few families who were infected had contact with this Qian family, one sold their big fat pig, one made a bed for their family, and the other seemed to have helped catch medicine, all of which were silver!" ”
Yan Hua nodded clearly: "That's right." ”
The village chief believed Yan Hua's words, but felt his scalp tingle again.
"Little Divine Doctor, do you say that this Gu worm is so terrifying? Isn't it generally just the life of a family? Why is this the life of the whole village so fierce? ”
Yan Hua was picking and picking in the medicine basket at this time, took out a very fishy grass, and put it on the mouth and nose of the daughter of the Qian family, so that she could smell it.
The little girl's sallow face flushed, and a blood-red worm popped up between her mouth and nose.
The insects are very small and small, and if you don't pay attention to them, you think they are newborn horseshoe insects, which are bright red, but they are as small as an eyelash.
Although the village chief's eyes were a little spent, he could clearly see that there were small insects crawling out of the mouth and nose of the Qian girl, and there were quite a few of them.
He was so frightened that he almost pumped straight away, and he felt sick all over, and he was worried that he had this bug in his stomach.
Yan Hua tried it and took the herb away.
The bugs froze for a moment, then shrank back.
Yan Hua did not deal with it directly.
This kid is full of these things, and it's useless to dispose of them.
Alas, I didn't expect that the first disaster down the mountain was man-made, but it was really ......
Trouble.
