Chapter 118: Large-scale eruption
He asked, "What is this for?" ”
Gu Annuan tore off a skirt again, made it into a mask and covered her nose, and then said, "This is just in case." ”
"Whether it is a plague or not, it can be transmitted through the air, and if it is a plague, we will go back and bathe with mugwort leaves."
After Gu Annuan finished speaking, he walked into a dilapidated house, Nan Li was stunned for a moment, and he also covered his mouth and nose like Gu Annuan, and then took a step into the house.
When Nan Liyan entered, Gu Annuan was already treating the three of them, Gu Annuan opened the eyelids of the three people, looked at the tongue coating of the three people, and checked the pulse.
Then he stood up and looked around the house, where there was still some uneaten meat. The flesh looked at it, and sniffed it again.
Nan Liyan saw Gu Annuan's movements and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with this meat? ”
Gu Annuan glanced at him and said, "Do you think that at this time, the people can't even afford to drink porridge, where can they eat meat?" It's rat meat. ”
Gu Annuan threw the meat in his hand back into the bowl on the table.
Nan Liyan was choked by Gu Annuan, and he couldn't speak for a long time, and then coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment.
"You mean they ate this rat meat to do this?"
"Well, whether they have eaten it or not, anyway, the first person to get sick must have eaten this rat meat, the rat's favorite thing is carrion, and now the corpses are everywhere, these rats must have eaten the corpses, and they will definitely be okay if they eat these rat meat again." Gu Annuan nodded.
"So, is this the plague?" Nan Liyan still has a trace of luck in his heart, I hope not.
Gu Annuan nodded.
"You send someone to carry these people away, and the people who come must cover their mouths and noses with strips of cloth, and when they are done, they must go back and bathe in mugwort leaf water, and after washing, they will smoke the house with vinegar."
Nan Liyan listened to Gu Annuan's words, and then instructed Jinmo to do what Gu Annuan said.
"Tell someone to smoke this house inside and out with vinegar to isolate all these people." Gu Annuan continued.
"Vinegar?" Jin Mo looked at Gu Annuan with a puzzled face.
Gu Annuan nodded: "It's the kind of vinegar we usually use for stir-frying, and I've already made people start buying edible vinegar on a large scale." ”
Then he said to Nan Liyan: "Post a notice to strictly prohibit anyone other than the doctor from removing the sick person, and then put up a notice to prohibit anyone from eating rat meat." By the way, arrange a few more places to cook porridge. ”
Nan Liyan nodded, and then asked puzzledly, "Why do you have to arrange a few more places for porridge?" ”
Gu An gave him a warm look, and then said: "The reason why they eat rat meat is because they are hungry, and if they are so hungry, some people will eat anything." ”
Nan Liyan nodded suddenly in understanding.
Then the two hurriedly returned to the yamen, and arranged for everyone in the yamen to start boiling medicine except for the people guarding the safety.
Because there were not so many boiling medicine pots, the Yamen caught quickly and began to collect the medicine pots with tokens, and the whole Yamen was full of the smell of medicinal juice all day long.
Gu Annuan first asked people to send a few bowls to the officers and soldiers who carried the patients in the morning, so that they could drink them just in case, and then arranged for special people to deliver medicine to a few sick patients.
Gu Annuan said that if you can't drink it, you have to pour it.
Liuyue and Gu Anxin got the news and handed over the soup soup to a few subordinates and rushed back.
"Sister, is it a plague?" Gu An'an ran out of breath.
Gu Annuan nodded.
Then he raised his eyes and said to Gu Anxin and Liuyue: "The herbs are not in place yet, so we can only pray that this plague will not be so ferocious." ”
Gu Anxin and Liuyue nodded.
A few days later, more and more people were suffering from the plague, there were already hundreds of people, and several districts in Fengyong City had it, but the herbs were still not in place.
Gu Annuan was a little anxious, and urged the team escorting herbs several times.
