Flower seeds, smallpox, smallpox coronavirus. ”

These words lingered in Zhu Hongyu's mind, as if a giant was smashing at her with a giant hammer.

Yes, viruses are not scary.

Malaria, cholera, and even anthrax, she had been exposed to it, so it wasn't scary.

But if we talk about smallpox, then Vermilion must shiver.

There is nothing more terrifying in this world than the unknown, and apparently the smallpox virus is one of them.

Zhu Hongyu no longer knew that this was the first time she had heard the term "smallpox", and in her previous life, this virus was only told as history.

Smallpox is a piece of history in her textbooks.

As a virulent infectious disease far above cholera and plague, its existence has indeed shaped history.

This disease has been recorded since the Eastern Han Dynasty, and then in the long history of up to a thousand years, the wise Chinese people have not found a corresponding measure.

It was not until the Ming Dynasty that Fang Shi came down to the mountain and handed over the technology of planting beans to the general public, and finally the method of planting beans continued until the Qing Dynasty.

It has to be said that smallpox is a disease that focuses on prevention, and if it is said to be treated, too many drugs can only be used as placebos.

What to say in the predromal fever, can be added or subtracted with mulberry chrysanthemum drink, in the early stage of the rash, can be added or subtracted with cimicifuga pueraria root decoction, and when pustules are formed, can be added or subtracted with sand cucumber wheat dong decoction.

This is all useless, at most to a certain extent to alleviate the patient's suffering.

Zhu Hongyu staggered to the table, her panicked appearance was very obvious, and Jin Yuanjing frowned when she saw Zhu Hongyu panicking.

"What's wrong? Suddenly the six gods have no master? What's going on? ”

Zhu Hongyu didn't speak, just sat where she was, as if she was thinking about something.

"What's wrong?" Jin Yuanjing asked again, and attached his hand to Zhu Hongyu's hand by the way.

Ya'er hurriedly tilted her head to the side.

Although the ten-year-old is not very old, he can already understand a lot of things, looking at Jin Yuanjing and Zhu Hongyu like this, the childish heart is more or less ashamed of this.

Zhu Hongyu also hurriedly removed her hand.

"What are you doing, and children."

While the two of them were talking, they saw that the store had brought up the hot pot, and mutton and other meat dishes and vegetarian dishes were placed on the table, and each portion was very sufficient.

"Let's eat, everybody."

Zhu Hongyu pointed with chopsticks, she had no intention of destroying such a good atmosphere, she should eat and drink, and the table of meals was also bottomed out.

After eating, Zhu Hongyu checked out and left, Jin Yuanjing was not used to eating meat, and his stomach was a little swollen, so he pulled Zhu Hongyu and wanted to take a walk.

So Zhu Hongyu asked Zhou Jun to take Ya'er back to the inn first, and she followed Jin Yuanjing around.

In this way, the four men dispersed in two directions to different places.

Zhu Hongyu sighed, and walked to the shore of Weishui with Jin Yuanjing, where the Wei River trickled, and there were many people who delivered goods by ferry.

The two of them were relaxing on the shore, and after walking a few steps, Jin Yuanjing finally had the courage to speak.

"You've been unhappy since you ate just now, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Zhu Hongyu showed an embarrassed expression, and then sighed into the distance.

"I just heard those two people say that Li Gongzi has a flower and smallpox...... This thing is scary. ”

Smallpox?

Jin Yuanjing was speechless for a while, he naturally knew about this virus.

"In the past, the smallpox Niangniang was enshrined in the Langmei Temple for a while, and it was because there were many sick children that they were enshrined. This disease is menacing, and there is no guarantee that you will be able to live if you have a child, and it is only complete when you have a flower child. ”

Zhu Hongyu nodded, and then held the railing with her hand to look at the river.

"Eh, you know what? Perhaps there was a time when smallpox had been eradicated, and no one was worried about a child getting smallpox. ”

Jin Yuanjing thought to himself, smallpox is such a thing, where is there such a time?

"Oh? What kind of medicine can I take? ”

Zhu Hongyu shook her head helplessly, some diseases are preventable and incurable.

"There are diseases that need to be immune...... That is, after a slight infection, there will be no recurrence. I know this technology. ”

Jin Yuanjing almost looked at Zhu Hongyu with reverence at this time.

"What? Do you know the solution to this disease? ”

Zhu Hongyu nodded plausibly.

"Really? That...... So what is the solution? ”

Zhu Hongyu just wanted to speak, but suddenly fell silent.

Because the traditional method of "planting beans" is to take the slurry directly from the pox rash after a person has smallpox, and then dip the slurry and scrape it on the child's skin, and see no red blood.

However, the smallpox virus infected by humans is very virulent in nature, and it is difficult to ensure that the whole body does not bloom, and it is even possible to be "immunized to death".

The best is to use cowpox, which has a very low mortality rate and can be cured within 10 to 15 days.

Jin Yuanjing saw that Zhu Hongyu didn't say anything, and suddenly understood something.

"I know that if there is such a way to keep children from getting sick, it is more or less a secret tradition of various factions. It's okay if you don't say it. ”

"These methods are immature and the case fatality rate is too high...... I can't...... No...... Venture. Although it is said to be the most effective method. ”

Jin Yuanjing was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say all of a sudden, but looking at Zhu Hongyu's thoughtful appearance, and remembering what she said about Yunmengzhen, he couldn't help but wonder.

"When you rescued people in Yunmeng Town, did you also save everyone?"

Zhu Hongyu shook her head, she naturally gave up some people who were weak and weak, leaving the opportunity to those who were more likely to be cured.

"Then why don't you tell the kids here? The rich and noble families here have already produced flowers, so it is only a matter of time before Baoji is affected. ”

But Zhu Hongyu still couldn't make a decision.

"Moo-"

Suddenly, two bred cows passed behind Vermilion and let out a cry that startled the originally fragile Vermilion.

She hurriedly turned around, and it turned out to be the sound of a cow barking.

Jin Yuanjing was startled when he saw Zhu Hongyu, and almost lowered his head and laughed.

"You, you, why are you talking about something important, but you were taken aback, is there a ghost in your heart?"

Zhu Hongyu glared at Jin Yuanjing and said, "What kind of ghost is in my heart, I haven't met Hanako since I was a child, so I'm afraid." This thing came in from the west, and now it has the posture to go southeast, aren't you not afraid at all? ”

Jin Yuanjing knocked Zhu Hongyu's unenlightened head.

"I'm afraid of something, if there is really a flower child, I will enshrine the god of smallpox Niangniang."

Zhu Hongyu looked at Jin Yuanjing, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Ignorance, how can a man be so ignorant?

Smallpox is a virus transmitted by droplets or direct contact, so how can it be prevented by which god you worship?

Even if it's a hundred, a thousand, it won't help.

Zhu Hongyu looked at Jin Yuanjing's face, white and clean, and pulled his arm in front of him and pulled his sleeve open.

I saw that the top of my arm was clean, and there was not a single acne mark.

"Jin Yuanjing, are you like me, you haven't been infected with Hanako?"

Jin Yuanjing looked at Zhu Hongyu, a little helpless.

"At least fifty percent of people are going to die, how can I get by."

"I see you know a little bit about planting beans just now, so have you ever been planted?"

Zhu Hongyu looked at Jin Yuanjing's expression and was very flustered, obviously she was waiting for the result after Jin Yuanjing's confirmation.

"No, I don't. There is no such blessing. ”

Zhu Hongyu thought to herself, it's over, it's completely over now.

She didn't know the situation of Zhou Jun and Ya'er, but if she and Jin Yuanjing were infected, let alone go to the emperor to thank her, even Bianjing would not let them in.

What can I do?

Zhu Hongyu sighed as she walked towards the inn, she needed to find a place to calm down now.

Smallpox or something is not contagious around her, and the mortality rate of smallpox is only 30 percent, and if she takes care of it, she will not necessarily die.

It's only 30 percent......

Zhu Hongyu, who kept giving herself a placebo, walked towards the passing scalper who had scared her just now.

Jin Yuanjing followed behind Zhu Hongyu, and he didn't know what he should do now.

He felt as if he had provoked Zhu Hongyu just now, which is why Zhu Hongyu was so angry.

Zhu Hongyu strode in the direction of the inn, passing by the two oxen.

Suddenly, Zhu Hongyu saw that the cow's huge udder had a red cluster of acne rashes.

This bull......

Zhu Hongyu suddenly stopped, and looked intently at the cow's pox, which the person was going to drive to the market to sell.

Following the cow like this, it obviously made the owner very unhappy, so he scolded him twice.

"Look at it! Want to buy it? ”

The cow owner's words suddenly aroused Zhu Hongyu's curiosity, and she hurriedly straightened up and motioned for the cow owner to stop.

"Wait, you're going to sell this cow?"

"Yes, fifteen taels of silver."

Fifteen taels?

When Zhu Hongyu heard the price, she secretly said that it was okay, but what about the pox rash on this cow?

Wait, she's not here to buy cattle, what kind of price is not appropriate!

"I have the money, so I'll ask you, what's the problem with the pox on your cow?"

After Zhu Hongyu said this, the owner of the cow realized the problem of his cow, and hurriedly turned around to the side of the cow, looking towards Zhu Hongyu's finger.

"This ...... This...... Not a few days ago? But it's not a big deal, cowpox! A lot of cattle have this problem! ”

What the? Cowpox?

Zhu Hongyu couldn't hold back the ecstasy in her heart.

What is luck called? What is called the luck unique to doctors!

That is, when she stepped on the iron shoes and was about to inoculate herself with human pox, suddenly a cow like an angel sister came!

He also had cowpox on his body.

"Are you sick this cow? Isn't it cheaper? ”

Although this cow is like an angel sister to Zhu Hongyu, the joy of life is still indispensable for bargaining.

"What...... This ......"

The owner of the cow suddenly did not bear the sudden drop of business, and was stunned for a few seconds.

"You...... Tell me the price. ”

Zhu Hongyu patted the cow, and then said: "I think ten taels, I don't know if I will buy it back dead or alive." ”

The boss nodded again and again, Zhu Hongyu's words were reasonable, and he didn't know whether the cow would be dead or alive after it was bought.

Zhu Hongyu hurriedly touched her purse, and reached out and handed the boss a silver ticket of ten taels.

When Jin Yuanjing saw this scene, he hurriedly rushed to the middle of Zhu Hongyu and the owner of the cow, his expression was very panicked.

"No, no, no, don't buy!"
