Chapter 289: The Truth Comes Out
"Even if many people have been infected with the plague, there is nothing in our family."
"We don't come and go very often, but the other day one of his brothers died of the plague, and he went there to help for a few days. When I came back, people were already a little bad......"
When Zhuo Yu heard the woman's words, he suddenly remembered something in his heart, so he asked, "Don't you take your family's water from around here?"
When the woman heard Zhuo Yu's words, she felt a little inexplicable, but it was true that their family's water was not used with the people in the village.
"We have a well in our own house, and the water is just enough for our own use." The woman replied.
Zhuo Yu was now ninety percent sure of what the cause of this plague was, and she said with some excitement: "If you want to live, don't drink the water outside!" It's a matter of water. Zhuo Yu said that and ran back.
In the past few days, through her observations, those people would vomit and have diarrhea once they became ill, and they all died violently within seven days. And the old woman and the Yanzi family were able to survive because they didn't drink the water from the well in Caijia Village!
Zhuo Yu had already thought about what kind of plague this was, this is the typical symptom of cholera!
Thanks to Zhuo Yu's knowledge of the ancient plagues, Zhuo Yu happened to have seen these related records when he was in college. This cholera, if the water quoted is not clean, if the people drink the dirty things, they will have these symptoms. It is also transmitted through feces, or if it comes into contact with wounds, it can also be transmitted.
If you want to completely cure this cholera, there is no other way but to block all the polluted water sources and not allow anyone to eat them, so as to prevent future troubles.
Zhuo Yu ran back excitedly, and as soon as he came in, he told them what he had discovered.
Mo Bai saw that Zhuo Yu actually relied on his own strength to solve such a tricky epidemic together. If he was just interested in Zhuo Yu at the beginning, then now he has another indescribable feeling about Zhuo Yu.
He has escaped death twice, and each time Zhuo Yu happened to be on the side and came to the rescue. And this time there is a way to solve the epidemic, if you bring this method back, it will inevitably make your father not hold him accountable for not being in the epidemic area. can also take the opportunity to trip the eldest prince. Mo Bai simply felt that Zhuo Yu was the goddess sent to him by heaven.
Not only Mo Bai, but even Lian Cheng felt that Zhuo Yu was very amazing, why didn't she have such a ability when I got along with her before, it seemed that she solved these problems very easily, and saved so many innocent people by the way.
"Yu Chijin, I'll just say I can solve it." Zhuo Yu said happily to Yu Chi Jin.
Although Yu Chijin did not speak, he chose to believe Zhuo Yu from the beginning. When I first came into contact with Zhuo Yu, I always thought that she was a somewhat mediocre puppet emperor, but after in-depth contact with Zhuo Yu, I slowly discovered that she was actually very strategic. When Zhuo Yu told him that he could solve the epidemic, he didn't doubt it, but he didn't dare to let her contact it out of fear.
"But why is this disease called, cholera?" Mo Bai asked curiously. It's the first time I've heard of this name, and I've never seen it in those ancient scriptures before.
Zhuo Yu was a little embarrassed when he heard Mo Bai's doubts. She couldn't explain to them how the name came about, so she said nonchalantly, "It's just a name I picked up blindly, so don't worry too much."
"Now that we know what this is all about, let's go back and tell them." Lian Cheng said.
"Unfortunately, I don't know how to save those who are already sick, but I just know how to stop this epidemic from happening further." Zhuo Yu said with some sadness, but this can't be blamed for her not remembering clearly, this cholera is a very serious disease and it is difficult to treat.
"It's good that you can do that." Lian Cheng looked at Zhuo Yu and said.
After the four of them came out of it, Yu Chi Jin immediately followed Zhuo Yu's instructions to seal all the wells in these villages, and also told the remaining survivors that they must find a clean water source so that they can continue to live.
In addition, those who died of the plague were no longer sent to be buried, but cremated on the spot. After all, it is also very likely that a new infection will occur in the process of contact. Throughout the ages, people have been very particular about leaving a "whole corpse", and the approach advocated by Zhuo Yu was also resisted and incomprehensible by everyone at first, but they repeatedly emphasized the seriousness, and people slowly accepted this approach.
During this period, Mo Bai was almost recuperating from his injuries, so he planned to return to Zhao State. But he didn't want to go back like this, he planned to take Zhuo Yu back to Zhao Country with him!
From the first time Zhuo Yu rescued him, Mo Bai's eyes had been fixed on Zhuo Yu's body, and then after so many things, Mo Bai already knew that he really didn't want to miss Zhuo Yu.
But Mo Bai knew very well in his heart that Wei Chi Jin would never allow this to happen. Besides, he also felt that Zhuo Yu was unusual, and whenever the two of them were talking together, Mo Bai saw that he was very uncomfortable in his heart.
The day before Mo Bai was leaving, Yu Chi Jin's condition suddenly became very serious, he fainted directly in front of Zhuo Yu, Zhuo Yu called Lang Zhong in a panic, but was told that Yu Chi Jin's poison was already urgent, if the antidote could not be found within seven days, then there was no way to return to heaven.
In the past few days, Wei Chi Jin has to work more than Situ Ji, which is why the poison spreads so quickly in his body. When Zhuo Yu heard Lang Zhong's words, she immediately panicked, she didn't know what to do at all, she just knew that the tears were falling uncontrollably, and she couldn't react for a while, and she didn't know what to do.
Zhuo Yu has always felt that he just treats him as a friend since he met him in Shudi, but I don't know when he started, he seems to have different feelings for him, this kind of affection has surpassed the feelings of friends, Zhuo Yu can't say it, she only knows that if someone wants to exchange her life for Yu Chi Jin's life. I will definitely go to die calmly.
"Zhuo Yu, you come out first, I have something to tell you." Situ said on the side.
Zhuo Yu's eyes were blurry now, and she couldn't see what Situ Qu's reaction was at this time, so she let Situ Qu pull her out.
