Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Sinister Rat Queen, the Plague Cloud Covers Anyang
"Go, go!" In the house of the captain in charge of the defense of the East Gate, his daughter-in-law was driving away a black mouse on the edge of the stove.
The rat was slapped with a broom and disappeared into the straw.
"Alas, it's really not worrying to make rats at home as soon as spring begins." The woman grabbed a handful of straw and lit it and stuffed it into the stove, and was about to make a fire to cook.
It felt a little itchy on her hand, and it seemed like some kind of bug, so she dusted it off.
When I raised my hand, I saw a shallow red spot on the back of my left hand, which seemed to have been bitten by some small insect.
In this day and age, it is normal to have lice, fleas, bed bugs and other things in the house.
She didn't care and went back cooking.
……
In Jishido, Yukiko is having fun.
With his mouth open and his tongue out, he kept scurrying around in the courtyards of the three houses of Jishitang.
It discovers a new game.
Yukiko's ears moved, and she heard some sounds from the backyard.
It immediately ran towards it, and sure enough, it found another hole in the corner of the backyard wall.
"Whew!"
Yukiko immediately wagged her tail and rushed over, excitedly opening her mouth close to the hole.
Then suck it up!
"Squeak!"
A strong suction force sucked out all three or five rats in the hole, and one of them was sucked into Yukiko's mouth.
"Click, click, ......"
Yukiko munched on the beauty, and the sound of flesh and bones shattering came out.
"Hiccup~" This product burped, licked his lips and waited for the next wave of "takeaways" to be delivered to his door, and it seemed that he was still unsatisfied.
These rats all have a faint demonic aura on them, which is very suitable for Yukiko's taste.
His favorite foods were monks and monsters.
I haven't eaten since Zhang Song, and today I came here to satisfy my hunger.
Although the demonic aura is very little and light, Yukiko is very content, which is better than nothing.
After Sun Miao found out about this situation, he reluctantly put away the thick earth staff.
He originally planned to repeat his old trick and fill in the rat hole in Jishitang, but seeing that Yukiko was so happy to eat, he still couldn't bear it after all.
It did not eat a few palatable meals.
Since you like "dogs with rats" so much, let it be.
But then again, what is that Rat Queen who is comparable to a human Jindan monk doing?
Tempting?
If that's all she can do, it's blind optimism.
But let these rats who are not even demons deliver food to Xuezi in waves, and Sun Mi really doesn't understand what kind of medicine she sells in her gourd.
It's almost noon, and the queen still doesn't show up, how can you compete in the way you're good at?
Sun Miao, who had adjusted his spirit to the best state and was waiting for the Rat Queen to come, was a little bored at this time looking at Xuezi running around.
However, Wang Dagen, who was beside him, suddenly spoke: "The number of creatures in the city has increased a lot, and they are all running from other places. ”
Sun Miao frowned, stretched out his hand to conjure up an enhanced version of Qingming liquid and dripped it into his eyes, and after a cool feeling, his eyesight was greatly improved.
After he raised the clouds to a higher height, he activated the Barrier Insight, and saw that the underground of Anyang City had been drilled out of many rat holes.
The rats, which are similar to those outside the city, are walking underneath every house, occasionally popping up on the ground to steal food.
Seeing this, he immediately flew to the center of the city and landed, sacrificed a thick earth staff, and carried the true yuan into it.
Boom!
The old technique was repeated and the hole made by the rats was filled again, and the rats were still squeezed to death without resistance.
It's not that Sun Miao didn't think that the other party would come down from the ground, but his preconceived thinking made him think that the other party would come in person, at least send some rat demons over.
But she didn't think that she was still sending ordinary rats as before.
After filling in the rat hole, Sun Miao meditated cross-legged on the same place, and due to the relationship between the auspicious saplings, the quality and concentration of the aura in Anyang City increased day by day, and the efficiency of cultivation and restoration of true yuan became higher and higher.
Until he recovered his true yuan, he still hadn't seen the rat queen make another move.
Jishitang also did not send an alarm from the paper crane, which does not seem to be a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.
I wondered until it was getting late, and then I stayed vigilantly until it began to shine, and there was no new abnormality in the city.
Back in Jishitang, Wang Dagen did not find out that a large number of creatures had come to Anyang City.
Nothing? That's it?
But the calmer it was, the more the uneasiness lingered in Sun Miao's heart......
……
In this way, he waited calmly until the afternoon of the next day, and a man full of energy shouted outside the door of Jishitang: "Doctor Sun!" I'm sorry to save my daughter-in-law! ”
As he spoke, he saw a stout man with a woman running in on his back.
Seeing that they were here to seek medical treatment, the Red Bean soldiers did not stop them.
"You put her here." Sun Miao pointed to the examination bed in the hall, "What's wrong with her?" ”
While asking, Sun Miao observed the woman.
At this time, her face was red, her nose was agitated, her wheezing was short, and her body was still trembling slightly, obviously from high fever and shivering.
"I was on duty at the East Gate yesterday, and when she came home, she was still doing business as usual, but this morning she said she had chills. Then I started to have a headache and nausea, and I vomited after drinking some water. When I touched it, she was scarily hot......
"I went to the Materia Medica Hall first, but Dr. Han said that she had deteriorated too quickly, so let me come to Jishitang to take a look...... Doctor Sun, what's wrong with my daughter-in-law? ”
"Let me take a look." After that, Sun Miao turned to the weak woman with her eyes closed, "In addition to what he said, what else do you feel uncomfortable?" ”
The woman groaned and said, "It hurts...... It hurts here. ”
Pointing to his left armpit.
Sun Miao touched his finger, and the woman immediately screamed in pain.
At that moment, my tentacles were hard, and the touch under my armpits was obviously different.
Seeing that the woman was in unbearable pain, he withdrew his hand and directly activated the Cave Insight.
Sure enough, the lymph node in her left armpit was swollen and adhered to the subcutaneous tissue, and the surrounding tissue was obviously edema.
Is this acute lymphadenitis?
"Did you have a cold, a sore throat, or anything else before?"
The woman shook her head slightly: "No, yesterday the concubine was still as usual, and there was nothing uncomfortable." ”
Acute lymphadenitis usually occurs when there is a cold, upper respiratory tract infection, or other foci of infection in the body, and it is rarely a direct primary disease.
And it always felt like she was starting to have a little trouble panting.
Upon closer inspection, Sun Miao suddenly found a red bump on the back of her left hand, with a small hole on it.
Swollen lymph nodes, high fever and chills, a large number of rats sent by the rat queen compete in the way they are best at......
Sun Miao's heart suddenly chuckled.
He hurriedly pointed to the pimple on the woman's hand and asked, "What is this?" But what was the bite yesterday? Like what...... Flea? ”
The woman nodded: "The concubine cooked yesterday...... I did get a bite when I was picking up the straw, maybe it was a flea. ”
"Have there ever been rats there?" Sun Miao asked hurriedly.
"The concubine once drove away a mouse...... How does Dr. Sun know? ”
Gan!
Sun Miao cursed in his heart, and before he had time to explain, he said loudly to the red bean soldiers outside the house: "Go and send all the ordinary people in Jishitang, including the nurses, to a few rooms in the backyard!"
"No one is allowed to move around without my orders, and no one is allowed to touch anyone outside! After that, all those who come to Jishitang for medical treatment are not allowed to leave unless I agree.
"In addition, go and inform other medical centers and pharmacies, and all patients with fever (fever) will be sent to Jishitang, and then the museum will be closed, and people who have been in contact with such patients will also come to Jishitang!"
"Yes!"
After a series of orders were issued, Sun Miao conjured up a set of enhanced protective clothing, including face shields, masks, gloves, hats, etc.
I really didn't expect that there would be a day when they would be used again in the Da'an Dynasty.
