Chapter 252: Catching the "River Demon"
Listening to Huang Zheng's insincere words, Xiao Yi did not pierce it, but said indifferently: "Your curiosity is quite strong, I thought you were here to ask about Huang Zheng's illness." ”
Hearing Xiao Yi say this, Huang Zheng immediately realized that Huang Zheng's illness had made new progress, and hurriedly asked: "Has Gong'er's illness been cured?" How is it treated? Tell me about it! ”
Huang Zheng's eyes looked at Xiao Yi with hope, like stars in the dark night, shining.
Xiao Yi shook his head lightly and said, "Doctor Lin has not developed a prescription for treating big belly disease......
Huang Zheng's high and excited mood fell to the bottom again, how disappointed he was.
Now that Huang Zheng has been suffering from big belly disease for more than six months, all the hope is on Lin Lu, and it is just a matter of researching a way to cure the disease, if he can't study it, Huang Zheng is afraid that he only has two months to live.
The corners of Xiao Yi's rare mouth rose, and he said with a smile: "Although I didn't develop a cure for the disease, I caught the 'river demon'." ”
"River Demon?" Huang Zheng naturally didn't believe that there were any demons and monsters in this world, and he was even more skeptical of Xiao Yi's words.
Xiao Yi nodded firmly again, and glanced at Xiao San behind him, Xiao San rubbed out of the room, and after a while, a huge wooden basin came in from outside.
Putting the wooden basin in front of Xiao Yi and Huang Zheng, Huang Zheng looked at it fixedly, and suddenly his brain was knotted, and his mouth was wide open, almost stuffing a whole egg.
I saw the bottom of the huge wooden basin, and the snails at the bottom of the black crow's pot, each only half the size of a little finger, which made people panic when they looked at it.
Huang Zhenghu asked, "This is what you call a river demon?" It's a delicacy or not? ”
Huang Zheng remembered the delicious seafood stir-fried conch, spicy fried small sea ding, etc., which were all available in modern times, and felt that his saliva was flowing out, and his hand involuntarily reached into the basin, wanting to pick up a handful of snails.
Before his hand touched the snail, he was tightly grasped by Xiao Yi's hand, and said with a look of urgency: "What are you going to do?" Don't want to live anymore? “
"Huh?" Huang Zheng looked at Xiao Yi with a gloomy face, looked down at the snails in the basin again, and suddenly came to his senses: "You don't want to tell me that the reason why people get big belly disease is because of these snails, right?" However, no one in the villages around the river eats this snail? How can you be sure that these snails are the culprit? ”
Xiao Yi was noncommittal, but asked Xiao San to bring a bucket of water and pour it all into the wooden basin, while he looked at the basin silently.
Huang Zheng didn't know why, just like Xiao Yi, he stared at the snails immersed in the water with good eyes, wondering how these snails counterattacked into "river demons".
After a while, there were tiny bubbles on the surface of the water, dense and dense, carefully distinguished, among the small bubbles, something seemed to be wriggling, Huang Zheng rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then looked at it carefully again, and couldn't help but sweat hair stand on end, and he was afraid when he thought about it.
I saw that the bubble that was as small as a bubble like a fine hole was not a real blister, but a small worm like a thin line curled up together, after being immersed in the water, floated out of the shell of the snail, and gradually stretched out, becoming a long worm like a thin line, because it was so small that ordinary young eyes could not even see its existence.
Huang Zheng was so shocked that he took two steps back, and suddenly remembered one thing, when he was in college in modern times, there was a classmate who grew up near the water, and reminded the classmates that when they go to the waterside to play, they should pay attention to hygiene, and they should not eat outside the water at will or swim outside the water, because some diseases are still incurable.
The example given by the classmate is a kind of schistosomiasis that lives in the shell of a snail, and if you drink the water of the river containing the eggs of the snail or are burrowed into the body by an adult schistosome, you will have a big belly like a pregnant woman, and you will continue to bleed until death comes. In other words, they can only use a lot of money to control water pollution, and cannot help patients get to the root of the disease.
Huang Zheng's face turned pale, and he couldn't wait to slap himself, he had traveled for so long, he knew that Huang Zheng had a big belly, but he didn't even think of schistosomiasis, if he thought about it earlier, Lin Lu would have taken a lot of detours.
Xiao Yi thought that Huang Zheng was frightened by these insects that were as long as a line and could not be detected by the naked eye, and said to Xiao San: "Go, hand over these insects to Doctor Lin to deal with together, don't infect others." ”
Xiao San lowered his head again and bent down again, and picked up the wooden basin, but this time, compared to the time he had just gone downstairs, he was much more cautious, for fear that the water, those snails, or those thread-like insects would be splashed out, so that the big belly disease had a chance to take advantage of.
Huang Zheng looked intently at Xiao San's back towards the apricot forest, and said worriedly: "I found out the reason, but I also found a way to kill the insects in these people's bodies?" “
Xiao Yi nodded and said: "The insects that burrow into the human body are different from the insects that are exposed to the outside, they can't be roasted, picked, sucked, and scratched their heads. “
Huang Zheng's shoulders had already drooped, and he looked at Xiao Yi weakly and helplessly: "I, what can I do?" ”
Xiao Yi shook his head and said: "You can't do anything except wait, and also, when Lin Lu was developing medicines, he didn't like people to disturb him the most, and you don't want to go into the newly built courtyard in the backyard." ”
Huang Zheng nodded, how frustrated he was in his heart, how frustrated he was, how discouraged he was, it seemed that Xiao Yi was right, he didn't know anything about medical skills, even if he had the strength to strike iron, it was useless at this time, he really couldn't do anything except wait.
After being silent for a long time, Huang Zheng said goodbye and left, she wanted to go home, before going home, she was going to buy Huang Zheng his favorite Yi Sugar, Osmanthus Cake, yes, and brown sugar, she wanted to make braised pork for her brother to eat, and ......
Walking to the door, Chun Tao was already guarding the door, bowing deeply to Huang Zheng as if she was looking, and asked quite well: "Miss Huang, Doctor Lin is happy, please don't go to the apricot forest to disturb her." ”
Huang Zheng tightened his eyebrows, wanting to fight back two sentences, Chun Tao had already Shi Shiran left, just like an ordinary send-off, two cold and noisy sentences, and then separated, there was no affection, only
Huang Zheng's deep eyes looked at the back direction of the courtyard, more than ten zhang away, a small bamboo house that was built at some point, but the doubts in his heart were getting deeper and deeper.
Just now, two people told themselves not to disturb Doctor Lin, if Xiao Yi said, Huang Zheng can be understood as not to let himself disturb Doctor Lin to develop medicines, if Chun Tao, Huang Zheng doesn't think she has any kind intentions to remind herself.
There is a saying that curiosity kills cats, once a person has a suspicion, his eyes always glance there involuntarily, and once he has a guess, he looks full of suspicions.
