Chapter 258: Smallpox! It turned out to be smallpox
"What?!" No way? The plague has come to Chang'an City? And go straight to the palace? I couldn't help but exclaim.
"Sit down! What is it called, what kind of system is panicked! The old man snorted, glared at me with his eyes, and after I sat down, he sighed: "Your Majesty's Concubine Yan went back to her hometown in Liangzhou, and she just came back a few days ago, and she didn't want to start a fever, even her child Twelve Emperors also showed signs of infection, and His Majesty didn't care much when he heard about it at first, but just instructed the little princes, princesses and concubines not to go out." sent a medical officer to inquire" The old man took a sip of tea, sighed and continued: "Who would have thought that last night, Liangzhou Thorn Shi reported urgently, a plague suddenly broke out in a small county under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou, and people had already begun to die. Therefore, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately sent someone to block the main road in and out of the county, and made people rush to the capital, who wants to ......" The old man couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head: "Concubine Yan's hometown is exactly there." ”
Hearing this, even if I was mentally prepared, I couldn't help frowning, damn, it's really good to die, and I really rushed into Chang'an City from other places.
"Earlier today, the Twelve Princes began to get sick, and so did Concubine Yan. His Majesty had to ban the palace where the twelve princes and concubines were stationed, and they were not allowed to enter or leave. All people are allowed to leave and not enter. Alas...... Now, although the news is blocked, the Chang'an access control will shake the entire Jingshi, and the news will not last long. I don't know ...... this time," the old man looked very worried.
"Yes, in this way, we have to be careful at home, master, why don't we let Uncle Shen take the third child out of the city to live for a while, and our eldest daughter-in-law?" My mother and the old man discussed the big thing, so I had to resign first. I still don't feel sure, what kind of disease is this? I can't ask the old man for a long time. Just say that it's very serious, and it will kill people, isn't this nonsense? There is no plague that does not die?
I returned to the small courtyard and sat on the couch and thought hard, what kind of illness can this be, we have a mother-in-law who has not yet married in the palace, in case something happens, what can we do?
"Young Master, what's wrong with you? A frown. Green Butterfly asked timidly.
"It's nothing, I'm just, alas, what kind of disease is this?" Most of the plagues in ancient times were some acute infectious diseases, but I don't understand what this sores are. We don't know one or two famous doctors or something, maybe we can figure it out, famous doctors? When Fang thought of this word, Yuan Tiangang's sanctimonious face shook in his head, snap! A slap on the thigh: "That's right! That's it, Yuan Dashen! ”
"Yuan? Yuan Dashen stick? The palace maid's expression was a little something, and she hesitated for a long time before she said: "Could it be that Langjun said that Yuan Tiangang and Yuan Dao will not grow up?" ”
"Yes, it's him, by the way, does he understand medical skills?" You should understand, I think, at least in ancient times, those who had the ability to refine small pills had to have some knowledge of medical science.
"I understand, Daochang Yuan has also seen His Majesty sick." The palace maid nodded her head very affirmatively, okay, it's him!
"Childe, where are you going? The old man ......" The shouts of the palace maid sister and the green butterfly were stopped by me raising my hand: "Look at the home for me, remember, this son is going to have a big deal to do." ”
The two heads swayed obediently, well, very obedient, hurriedly went out of the door, called Fang Cheng to go on the road with me, and hurriedly went straight to Qingyang Guan, and when I arrived at the gate of Guan, I threw the horse to Fang Cheng, and I rushed in first. When I got to the back hillside, I raised my eyes and saw Yuan Tiangang sitting opposite an old man in a gray robe with white eyebrows, both of them were worried, on the side, Xianyun was cooking tea, and Liushuang was cleaning the tea set.
Yuan Tiangang also seemed to notice me, beckoned to me from afar, and got up to greet him: "Oh, Brother Dao actually has time to visit, please hurry up." ”
"I don't dare to be, but there is something to come here, but I don't know what to do, where I am messing around, I still look at Haihan." I had to go over and laughed a little embarrassedly.
"It's okay, Brother Sun, this is the bereaval of Fang Junfang, the son of Prime Minister Fang. This is the national hand divine doctor, and even His Majesty has repeatedly awarded his official title but refused Brother Sun Dao. Yuan Tiangang introduced the two of us.
"Xiaodao Sun Simiao has seen Fang Gongzi." The eyebrows are white, but there is no trace of old age on the face, there are no lines at the corners of the eyes, and the face and body look like a young man, if it weren't for the fact that there is no hair dye or anything in this era, I would really suspect that this guy is obviously a young man, and he has nothing to do to dye his white hair to play.
"Sun, Sun Simiao?!" The butt had just sat on the straw mat, and he was startled, and he raised his head to face this white-haired old man? Alas, it's hard to describe, I always think this old guy is a young man.
"Xiaodao is Sun Simiao, hehehe...... "Fortunately, the voice can be heard, and he must be about fifty or sixty years old."
"Don't dare, don't dare, Doctor Sun's name is known to the whole world." Quickly slapped a couple of sycophants at this very hung famous doctor, this old guy is a great cow, "A Thousand Golden Prescriptions" This famous health prescription is passed on to future generations, it is said that this old guy seems to have lived more than a hundred years old, think about it in ancient society, live more than 100 years old, the whole old man does not die, the medical level and living standard of ordinary people in later generations are not known how many times better than the Tang Dynasty, and there are very few people who may live to his age.
"Brother Dao is here to ask something?" Even if Yuan Tiangang doesn't say this, I'm going to ask, with the world's first doctor in front of me, who else to ask without asking. "I'm here to inquire about what it is."
"Sores?!" Doctor Sun and Yuan Shenzhu glanced at each other, very tacit eyes, and then, the beads of the two pairs of eyes all fell on me, and even Liushuang and Xianyun, who were waiting on the side, looked at me curiously.
Why are you staring at me? I'm anxious, I'm going to go back to you one by two. "Sores abductees, as the name suggests, captives, captives, sores, scars......" Sun Simiao cleared his throat, and began to show his profound medical knowledge. I finally understood, it turned out that this sores turned out to be a foreign disease, in the last years of the Western Han Dynasty, because of the conquest, was taken prisoner from Tianzhu through Vietnam and brought into the Central Plains. Fuck, it's hard to bring such a damn thing. He gestured his middle finger to the ancestor general in his consciousness hatefully, and continued to listen patiently to the Sun Divine Doctor's hanging book bag.
Doctor Sun went on to describe the signs of the onset in detail. At first, headaches, back pain, chills or chills, some are hot, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, insomnia, etc. About three to five days after the onset of the disease, the patient begins to develop a red rash and later turns into a pustular rash. Curiously, most people die with different symptoms. If you are physically strong, you may be able to survive, but you will also be left with dense acne scars on your body and face.
Choking ...... I just picked up the tea bowl and shook my hand, the tea bowl fell directly on the desk, the tea poured out, my face turned pale, and I sat speechless. A divine doctor, a divine stick, and two divine stick apprentices, all four of them stared at my face, very surprised.
If I can't die, I will become a pockmarked face, isn't it: "God, smallpox!" ...... "I burst out, yes, it broke out out of fear, and now, the divine doctor and the divine stick were all frightened by my sudden outburst, and the tea bowls in their hands fell to the ground one after another, and the tea splashed all over, so that the two old men were hurriedly baring their teeth and cracking their mouths.
"Smallpox?!" Sun Simiao didn't care about the tea splashed on his body, but chewed on the name very enthusiastically. "A fitting name, smallpox!"
Damn, this old guy still has the spirit to care if this thing is named right or not. They don't understand how terrible this thing is. This is clearly a fierce infectious disease -- smallpox, which has caused people to talk about the "tiger" for centuries and tremble with horror, but has been completely eradicated in the 20 th century! ――
I got up irritably and wandered around the pavilion. Smallpox, one of the most contagious diseases in the world and seriously endangering people, is a strong infectious disease caused by the smallpox virus, which multiplies quickly and can spread at an alarming rate in the air. One out of every four patients dies, while the remaining three are left with ugly pox scars, a terrible disease that has existed almost since human history. Legend has it that the once invincible Roman Empire was unable to contain it because of the smallpox epidemic, which caused the national prestige to collapse. In the eighteenth century, smallpox spread in Europe, and the death toll was as high as 150 million.
This is a disease that I can hear from my ears tingling, I have an uncle, who has been a smallpox, a face, like the surface of the moon, and laughs so hideously, I don't know how many times I was scared to cry by him when I was a child. Later, I learned that the uncle was sick to become like this, in order to eliminate my nightmare, I had checked the Internet, and I heard a lot in the news, and I didn't know how many times I had reported scientific exploration. So I can say that I still remember this thing and hate it deeply, and when I think of the pitted pockmarked face, I can't help but feel chills in my heart.
