Chapter 170: Contagion, Burn Them Alive
A room full of people was suddenly inexplicable.
Shen Huazhuo didn't care about explaining, rushed out of the door, and ran wildly all the way, praying in her heart, she only hoped that Ji Ziyuan had noticed that she was wearing gloves and a mask when taking blood samples.
It's a pity that she caught up and saw that the imperial doctor and many doctors had already taken blood samples from many people.
They're getting together to study.
"You ......"
Shen Huazhuo's eyes anxiously swept over everyone's bodies one by one.
A few people had cloths tied to their hands, others sprinkled with medicinal powder, and some were bright red......
Her heart was cold, and she suddenly stopped.
"Doctor Hua, you're here, Doctor Ji told me about the process of your research, but we still don't know how to do it, can you please give me advice?"
Shen Huazhuo glared at them: "What else do you say about not hesitating to teach?" You're all infected with the disease. ”
"What do you mean?" No one understands where the infection comes from.
"Look at your hands." Shen Huazhuo put on his gloves and mask first, and asked them to stretch out their hands to look at them one by one.
Many of them had their fingers cut, and she knew it when she saw the clean blood crossed with the dirty blood.
"This ...... What's going on? Some people didn't believe it and glared at Shen Huazhuo.
Shen Huazhuo sighed helplessly and explained to them.
"It's like rats are infecting each other, and the blood of those sick people is carrying the disease, and your hands are broken, and you can easily get infected if you come into direct contact."
After speaking, she was a little anxious and asked them not to ask first: "I'll disinfect you first." ”
This kind of infectious disease is obviously transmitted by blood and mouth foam, and those who have broken wounds are actually about 90% likely to be infected, and a few percent are lucky.
After some cleaning, only five of the dozens of doctors and doctors had no wounds.
Even Ji Ziyuan is no exception.
"Quick, bring the wine." After some intense cleaning and first aid, Shen Huazhuo collapsed in his chair.
She had been fighting for a day and a night, and she was so tired that she had only rested for half an hour and had been wounding them for most of the morning, and when she was done, she had completely collapsed, and she couldn't even speak from her chair.
"What's wrong with you, you're all infected?"
Doctor Lin was late.
Everyone was a little wilted, listless, and no one wanted to pay attention to him.
"Look, what am I talking about? Let you not be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, now it's okay to make a fuss like this? Although Shen Huazhuo found the cause of the disease and proved that they were suffering from the plague, it caused these doctors to also be infected.
So, now she didn't beat him at all.
And judging by their discussions, the variety of this plague is new, and they have not yet developed a cure for it.
Therefore, it is no wonder that the atmosphere of these doctors is not enthusiastic now, just like the refugees.
"Imperial Physician Lin, how can you talk like that?" Ji Ziyuan was jealous and hateful, and glared at him dissatisfied.
At first, he felt that there was nothing, at most, he was relying on his age, some self-righteousness, and he liked to manipulate his identity, but now looking at him like this, knowing that they were infected, he was still a little gloating.
"They are also well-intentioned to help before they accidentally get hit, now is not the time to pass the buck to each other, we should work together to come up with a cure."
Shen Huazhuo's spirit was not good, and coupled with his upset, his speech became a little heavier.
Imperial Physician Lin already looked at her unpleasantly, but when he saw that she still had a bad attitude, the pent-up emotions immediately exploded.
"Hmph, Doctor Hua, this official hasn't asked you yet, you are so desperate to find the cause of their illness, now it's okay, the cause has been found, but you see, now these more than 30 doctors are all suffering from your fault, are you worthy of the trust they give you?"
It's okay not to mention this stubble, everyone thinks that they are in a hurry to get tricked, but now when they hear Taiyi Lin's words, some people have a faint resentment towards her.
"yes, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be ......"
"yes, what now?"
It's everyone who spares their lives, and when one person talks about it, everyone else follows and speaks, crusading against Shen Huazhuo intermittently. All of a sudden, the emotions that everyone had been suppressing seemed to explode at this moment.
Everyone, you accuse Shen Huazhuo with every word.
The expressions of anger, anger and fear that occasionally revealed made Shen Huazhuo's mind change.
"Hey, you can't talk like that." Ji Ziyuan stood beside Shen Huazhuo anxiously.
But his voice was too low and too low, and no one noticed him.
Everyone was noisy, and the whole scene was so lively.
This is not a good time to discern, they have anger in their hearts, and it is better to vent it. Shen Huazhuo pulled him many times, wanting him to say less, but he insisted on saying it.
Shen Huazhuo's ears were numb from the noise, and evil was born from the side of the gall, and suddenly slapped on the mahogany coffee table.
The "pop" sounded very loud.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and finally you open your mouth to see Shen Huazhuo.
"Doctor Ji has something to say, you can be quiet."
Her voice was low and cold, her brows were tightly locked, and her face was cold, and for a moment, everyone was stunned.
Ji Ziyuan drank the tea handed to him by Shen Huazhuo and pursed his lips, he still knew what he wanted to say.
"You think about this wrong, how can you blame Dr. Hua? Like us, he came to heal the victims. Originally, everything was fine, but the crux of the epidemic was found, but we were anxious and made our own decisions without asking him, and I have to bear a lot of responsibility for this matter. ”
He took the initiative to take responsibility and admitted that his anxious attitude resonated with many doctors.
Thinking about it, Dr. Hua was so tired that he fell asleep, and it was true that they started directly without asking his opinion.
"It's that I didn't make it clear, there is nothing wrong with what you are doing, but you can't take it directly with your hands, you need to wear gloves."
She tore off her homemade gloves and waved them in front of everyone.
Everyone immediately blushed.
They are all doctors, and some of them should think more than ordinary people, but at this time, they are negligent, how can they blame others?
"Even if everyone is careless about this, but you caused them to become like this, what do you say?" Imperial Physician Lin knew that she had not yet fully developed a cure for the disease, so he deliberately embarrassed her.
Shen Huazhuo was silent for a while.
She hadn't had time to study the final prescription yet, but she really knew what to do.
"Can't it be cured?" Imperial Physician Lin frowned.
If it can't be cured, then these refugees and doctors infected with the epidemic will die, and the price seems to be a little too great, and a faint hesitation flashed in his heart.
"There must be a rescue, but the formula has not yet been developed, so I can only try the prescription I used before to alleviate the disease."
Wang Yue'er's illnesses, she already has a rough number, if she is given more time, she will definitely be able to cure them.
"Besides, there are so many of us, there must be a way." Ji Ziyuan's starry eyes flashed, and his face was trusting.
Everyone saw that he believed in Shen Huazhuo, so they all stopped for the time being and actively participated in the development of prescriptions.
It's just that no matter how strong the confidence is, it can't withstand the impact of the bad news brought by the soldiers.
"All the refugees who contracted the epidemic three days ago have died."
"What, it's only been three days!"
Among the refugees who had just died were those whose blood had been drawn.
Unexpectedly, they put themselves on the hook, but there was still no way to save their lives.
The doctors who were infected with the epidemic were panicked and had no intention of making any more attempts, so they sighed and collapsed on the spot.
"What should Dr. Hua do now?"
Unconsciously, everyone regarded her as the backbone.
Shen Huazhuo frowned: "The top priority is to continue to develop prescriptions, so that everyone can prescribe the right medicine and cure it." ”
She was already anxious, but in order to stabilize them, she had to pretend to be calm.
In fact, the mutated plague is difficult to cure, and its various components do not have their own order, and all medicines have to be tried blindly.
……
A day passed, and the news of the death of the sick kept coming from the Fayan Temple.
In order to prevent the spread of the disease, as soon as the refugees who died of the epidemic appeared, the soldiers piled up their corpses, put some firewood, and burned their corpses with a fire.
Looking at the soldiers who kept running in the crematorium, the refugees and doctors were all in danger.
In a flash, two days passed.
There is only one day left before this group of doctors, as well as other newly infected people.
In the past two days, dozens of people have died intermittently, and there are constant wails every day, as if dark clouds are enveloping Fayan Temple.
Shen Huazhuo alone took Ji Ziyuan to continue pounding and testing the medicine in the medicine house under supreme pressure.
"Yun Niang...... Uh, Dr. Hua, I'm already well? Wang Yue'er leaned on the door frame and looked at Shen Huazhuo with a happy expression.
She had drunk the decoction for two days, and had gone through Shen Huazhuo's acupuncture technique, and now she was able to get out of bed and walk.
Seeing that her face was still a little pale, her eyes were full of energy, and Shen Huazhuo was sincerely happy.
"She's fine, does it mean that we are saved?" Ji Ziyuan has been able to boil a immature face these days, leaving him skinny and bones.
"Yes, there is a lot of hope." Shen Huazhuo nodded vigorously.
Ji Ziyuan happily went to find the person in charge of this place, Imperial Doctor Lin, but was told that he had already left.
"He said that our illness can't be cured, and there is no need to stay in this area." One of the young imperial doctors, who often followed Imperial Doctor Lin, was full of sadness.
He is still so young, he has just been admitted to the Tai Hospital for a year, and he has not yet become a biological child, and he has not had time to honor Gaotang......
"How could he do that?" Shen Huazhuo couldn't believe it when he heard this.
Is life really that cheap in their eyes?
"Oh no, Imperial Doctor Lin has come to seal the city with the prince." Someone exclaimed.
"What ......"
Ji Ziyuan was also angry.
Imperial Physician Lin is really bold.
Everyone rushed to the city wall and looked at the majestic soldiers under the tower.
This time they are no longer their patron saints, but executioners who have come to kill them.
"You're telling the truth?" Xuanyuan Yu'an was dressed in a red gold embroidered dragon pattern robe, wearing a white jade crown, his face was serious, and his eyes were coldly staring at Imperial Doctor Lin in front of him.
"Yes, Lord Wang, everything Xiaguan said is true, the doctors and all the refugees in Dongshan City are infected with a new type of plague, this disease is too contagious, Xiaguan is incompetent, and it cannot be cured for the time being, if you want to keep the peace of the Lingjiang Delta, you must close the city and cut off all possible sources of infection."
Xuanyuan Yu'an's fingers caressed the jade wrench on his thumb, and his mind was fluctuating.
"Lord Wang...... Don't listen to Dr. Lin's nonsense, we already have a way to diagnose and treat it. ”
Ji Ziyuan stood on the city tower and shouted loudly below.
Shen Huazhuo stood nervously behind him, watching him patiently persuade Prince An.
But after all, his words were not as heavy as Imperial Doctor Lin's, and Xuanyuan Yu'an was not soft-hearted at all.
"Don't shout, he won't be tempted." Shen Huazhuo grabbed him.
"You think, the people of this city in the east mountain are only a few thousand people left, and in other cities outside, there are tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. The lesser of the two, the people of this city are doomed to be abandoned by them! ”
Now you can't rely on them, you can only rely on yourself!
Shen Huazhuo silently cheered himself up, but he heard that Xuanyuan Yu'an below had already recruited soldiers, and ordered loudly:
"Come on, prepare torches, burn the city!"
