Chapter 428: Causes

Before Si Chen could come back to his senses, Lin Zuiliu said again: "Say it with me again, teacher, thank you!" Si Chen then followed again in a daze, bowing to the corpse.

"What do you mean by a general teacher?" Si Chen asked Lin Zuiliu suspiciously.

Lin Zuiliu looked at him and smiled and said: "The general teacher is the teacher who dedicates his body to us, and using his body to help us learn is the greatest dedication." ”

As she spoke, Lin Zuiliu felt extremely solemn, and couldn't help but recall the time when she was in medical school in modern times, when it was a general teacher who allowed her to truly understand the human body, and combined with her profound attainments in traditional Chinese medicine, she made her rise on the road of medicine and quickly reached the top.

Now in this time and space, there are no modern instruments and equipment, and the medical conditions are very poor. In modern times, a problem that can be solved by a shot of antibiotics has become a man-eating devil in this time and space. A plague can cause a large number of people to be displaced, the population to plummet, and even cause famine, war and a series of major events that will shake the country.

Therefore, now she has a great responsibility, and if she successfully finds the cause of the disease and treats the plague, she will save thousands of people from fire and water.

She has been in a medical family since she was a child, and has always been influenced by humanitarianism. The view of life is also different from that of the ancients.

In fact, in modern times, she has not experienced many life and death. But here, there are frequent brushes with death, and the lives of those around you may be fleeting. This made her feel more urgent.

Not daring to think about it further, Lin Zuiliu looked at Si Chen and asked, "Are you ready?" ”

Si Chen nodded heavily and said, "Ready." Her eyes also flashed with a determined darkness, as if she had understood the meaning of Lin Zuiliu's actions.

"Then let's get started." Lin Zuiliu said solemnly. Then she slowly untied the clothes from the corpse, the outer garment, the middle garment, and only the innermost belly pocket.

After untying the clothes, Si Chen helped her flip the corpse so that she could take off the clothes and check them in detail.

But when the corpse was turned sideways, he gently lifted his clothes, and found that the corpse had a large red rash in the shape of blisters on the back of the body, some of which had been cracked, and the unbroken pages were crystal clear and looked very scary.

"This rash is very rare, maybe this is the culprit of death." Si Chen said while inspecting.

"I might know what it is, you can turn her over for me." Lin Zuiliu frowned and looked at the red rash on the corpse, wanting to take a closer look at it in detail.

Si Chen didn't dare to slack off, and immediately turned the corpse over, letting the corpse lie flat on the bed, Lin Zuiliu gently lifted the hem of the belly pocket on the corpse, only to see the red rash spread along the waist to the abdomen, like a belt all over her waist.

It must be, this is shingles, commonly known as snake sores. Although the treatment cycle of this disease is very long and the recovery is very slow, it is not fatal.

Very similar to chickenpox, it is caused by a virus, but shingles is not so contagious, and it is estimated that this epidemic of plague must be caused by a mutant virus similar to the herpes zoster virus.

Lin Zuiliu didn't expect to find the cause so quickly, but he still didn't dare to take it lightly. So, she said to Si Chen: "I want to check the situation of the corpse in detail, and see if there are any other places where there is also a rash, this red rash is transmissible, you must not touch the broken blisters and wounds on the corpse." ”

"What kind of epidemic is this?" Si Chen asked.

"This disease is very similar to smallpox and is very contagious, especially wounds and ruptured pus, so we must be very careful. Moreover, the course of this disease is very long, it is difficult to recover, and with our current medical conditions, it is very difficult to cure. Lin Zuiliu patiently explained to Si Chen.

In this day and age, without antibiotics, dealing with this viral infectious disease is very tricky.

It takes a long time for traditional Chinese medicine to work, and this acute infectious disease is likely to die before it can be effective. Therefore, it is imperative to do a good job of isolation so that the virus does not spread again.

Lin Zuiliu had already finished examining the corpse while thinking about it, she needed to quickly think of countermeasures, the prince was not in the palace now, she, the head of the house, would have to take on the affairs of the entire palace, and she could not let the palace lose anything.

"Si Chen, we need to hurry up, I'll write you a prescription, you send someone to the pharmacy to find out the specific quantity of medicines, and wait for my news." Lin Zuiliu's brain spun rapidly, and he said to Si Chen.

Seeing this, Si Chen hurriedly pushed the door and went out to find pen and ink, and before five minutes of work, Si Chen had already come back out of breath.

"I have two prescriptions, you must remember well, the medicinal materials in them must be sufficient. Bupleurum, Banxia, ginseng, moxibustion licorice, ginger, ..... "Si Chen quickly remembered, these are all medicinal materials for detoxification and diarrhea, the dose is large, the medicinal effect is strong, it seems that this disease is really difficult to deal with."

After Si Chen left, Lin Zuiliu summoned Yi Dong, who had been waiting in the courtyard, and asked her to go down and arrange for someone to cremate the body quickly, and find a quiet place to bury the ashes.

Then arrange for all the people in the province to be examined, and those who have any symptoms such as rashes, coughs, and colds must be gathered in the room.

Two hours later, there were nearly twenty people in the small courtyard of the Huanyi room. Lin Zuiliu looked at the scene in front of him, and his heart was inevitably a little sad.

She and the prince don't like a lot of people to serve, so there are only a hundred servants in the Zhennan Palace. Except for the courtyard of the old ancestor, there are not many people left, there are more than 20 people at this station, and one-fifth of the people in the whole house may have been infected.

This is very likely to cause an outbreak of disease, and it is necessary to find a larger compound for isolation immediately.

"This time, I have found the cause of everyone's illness. Si Chen has now gone to the pharmacy to pick up medicine. We will give you the best treatment. But rest assured, your family will inform you of the arrangements properly. Lin Zuiliu took a deep breath and said slowly.

However, because the disease is very contagious, everyone can only live in a courtyard for isolation, and from now on, everyone is not allowed to have contact with the outside world.

The people below, you look at me, I look at you, but the palace has always been strictly ruled, and no one dares to speak for a while. Seeing this, Lin Zuiliu continued.

"As long as you recuperate in peace, until the illness is cured, the palace will give everyone a period of rest. This period will not shorten everyone's monthly silver, please rest assured that you will recuperate, I will definitely help you, so you must cooperate with me, actively carry out treatment, and never allow private contact with the outside, your contact with anyone may kill each other, this is not child's play! ”

Most of the people in the courtyard were terrified, they never thought the disease would be so serious. At this time, a clear boy was raised: "Will we die?" ”

It was Shaoguang, who stood at the back of the crowd. When asking, his eyes kept looking at Yi Dong beside Lin Zuiliu. Lin Zuiliu looked at Yi Dong with her spare eyes, and her face couldn't help but show a trace of sadness, and the hard-working little mandarin ducks seemed to have determined each other's intentions at this time. It is very likely that you will face life and death.

In order to encourage everyone, Lin Zuiliu said: "I am a healer, I will not give up on any of you, please don't give up on yourself, although it will take a while, but this disease is not incurable, as long as you want to live, I will definitely do my best to help you." ”

Hearing these words, everyone couldn't help but be moved, they were just subordinates in the palace, and they could be abandoned at any time for the masters.

And their princesses will not only not give up, but they will also do their best to help them heal, which is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes! If you work in other high-ranking families, you may be infected and thrown into a mass grave to fend for yourself.

"We believe in the Princess!" I don't know who started it, but everyone agreed. When Lin Zuiliu saw this scene, a hanging heart fell to the ground.

She continued to explain some precautions to everyone, and quickly arranged manpower to be responsible for isolation and treatment. Fortunately, Si Chen quickly returned with a carriage full of medicinal herbs. It helped her relieve a lot of burden.

When all this is done, it has already reached the tenth point of the palm lamp, and it is time to eat, Liao Luan has not returned to the house, and there is no message from the younger servants.

Lin Zuiliu is now very anxious and wants to tell Liao Luan about the cause that has been found. I would also like to know about the epidemic situation in other parts of the capital, and if I can distribute the prescription to the places where it is needed as soon as possible. Maybe it will save some more lives.

But Liao Luan's delay in returning gave her a bad premonition, could it be that something happened in the palace? The prince entered the palace in the afternoon, and he has not returned for such a long time, something important must have happened.

Lin Zuiliu had no intention of eating, and when he was thinking wildly, a small guy stumbled in. This is a fresh face, Lin Zuiliu has not seen it before, the little girl saw her, and replied tremblingly: "Princess, it's not good, the old lady has a fever, I'm afraid that she is infected with the wind and cold, please come over and take a look." ”

How could an old woman find a servant to come and spread the word when she was sick? Lin Zuiliu was suspicious in his heart, and was interrogating this little guy, and Yi Dong walked in with a cup of soup.

Seeing the little guy kneeling on the ground, he hurriedly asked, "Aren't you the new sweeper in the old lady's yard?" How could he be so bold and trespass into the princess's courtyard without permission! ”

"Back to Sister Yidong's words, the old lady had a high fever, and now the yard is in a mess, and the old lady does not let the big maids invite the princess over, saying that the princess has been treating the people in the house for days, and she must be exhausted, and she does not want her to work. But I saw that the situation was getting worse and worse, so I secretly ran over to report it. ”

This little guy seems to be going back to Yi Dong, but he has been looking at Lin Zuiliu, and he is not like an ordinary guy at all.
