0233 Collect pathogens
But he can't show it yet, because these people around him are under enough pressure right now! If he shows embarrassment again, the people below will collapse!
Therefore, in addition to encouraging the people around him every day, Liu Haojia also has to go back and forth to Qinghe Village to inspect various epidemic prevention work, supervise the patients to take medicine, and encourage them to bravely fight against smallpox! This series of things made him a little exhausted!
This morning, Liu Haojia had just finished washing up and was about to leave the tent for dinner, when he heard someone outside shouting in ecstasy: "Pox!" Acne! ”
Liu Haojia immediately heard that the person who shouted was a family member who was responsible for taking care of the two cows, which showed that the two cows really had pox!
Liu Haojia didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly walked out. At this time, the other tents were also opened, and everyone rushed out, watching the family who ran over dancing and saying loudly: "Second young master, those two cows have pox!" ”
Liu Haojia was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Okay! That's great news! Let's go, let's go! ”
With that, he led the people to the rear of the camp. More than thirty steps behind the camp, there were five tents set up side by side. But these five tents are not for people, but for cows! There are two cows in one tent, and they are taken care of more carefully than people!
When they reached the tent, the two cows had been pulled out and tied to the stakes, and they were slowly eating the hay in front of them, and they did not look very energetic. And the family member who was in charge of feeding the cow pulled the hair off the cow and said, "Second young master, look! ”
Liu Haojia looked down and saw that there was indeed a round herpes on the exposed cow's skin, which didn't seem to be mature. Then he searched for the location of the cow, and sure enough, he found a lot of pox buds!
Seeing this result, Liu Haojia knew that his experiment had a good chance of success! But the most important step is human experimentation!
Liu Haojia gathered his mind and said loudly: "Okay, don't be stunned, hurry up and put on protective clothing to collect the pathogen!" Remember, be sure to mark the bottle so that you don't confuse pathogens taken from humans with those taken from cows! ”
Everyone said yes and immediately got busy. Soon, the new pus was collected and stored in a porcelain vase of different colors. At this time, everyone began to be stunned around this porcelain vase! Because according to Liu Haojia, the next step is to start planting pox on people, but who will come first? No one wants to take such a risk!
Don't look at what Liu Haojia said so surely, but everyone can still see a trace of unnaturalness on his face! This shows that he is not absolutely sure in his own heart. This makes everyone even more uneasy!
After everyone gathered around the porcelain vase for a long time, Liu Haojia finally spoke, saying: "Prepare a separate tent, I will personally plant pox!" ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this! No one expected Liu Haojia to make this decision! You know, he is the backbone of everyone, if he has three long and two short, the consequences are unimaginable!
At this time, Zhang Peilan said loudly: "Second brother, don't worry, let's hire a lot of villagers to give it a try!" Don't they all say that there must be brave men under heavy rewards! ”
Everyone echoed this idea, and even the anxious family members had already hung their waist knives on their bodies, and they were ready to arrest a few people directly when they couldn't talk!
Liu Haojia stopped everyone's restlessness, and then said: "For generations, those who died of smallpox were cautious, and countless doctors strangled them!" But with the help of all the people who have seen it, we have already used human pox to prevent smallpox, and now we have to take it a step further and see if cowpox is better than human pox! Now that we have succeeded in this move, we should move forward bravely! I'm willing to be the first to try cowpox! ”
After speaking, Liu Haojia picked up the dagger and stabbed a small hole in his arm! Seeing this, Zhang Peilan shouted: "When we came here, we have already put life and death aside, and today we live together and die together!" ”
After saying that, he also pulled out his dagger and stabbed a hole in his arm! Several other people were moved by Liu Haojia's behavior, and they all pulled out knives and stabbed themselves in the arm, and they all cut out the wounds on their arms!
Liu Haojia shouted: "You are all good men! Today, if we are successful, we should share the wealth, and if we go to Huangquan together, it is also a beautiful talk! ”
After saying that, he grabbed and picked up a little pus and smeared it in the wound, and then he personally smeared everyone's wound with pus. Then he picked up the muslin and bandaged everyone, and at the same time said: "We have already done everything we can do, now it depends on the arrangement of God!" After a while, scrape all the pox buds on the two cows, and then kill them and eat meat! ”
Wang Xinyi said with a smile: "Okay, have a good meal today!" ”
Then everyone worked together and directly overturned and slaughtered the two oxen. After the two cows were slaughtered, Liu Haojia asked the family to take some beef and give a little to each villager, and then began to boil the meat and beef bones that were set aside for himself to eat.
In fact, Liu Haojia did not invest less money in the villagers. Medicinal herbs are one thing, but more importantly, he asked the five family members who stayed outside to buy a lot of meat and bones every day. When the meat is cooked, it is eaten directly by the wounded, and the bones are boiled into soup for the sick to drink.
Others may not know, but Liu Haojia knows best that patients need nutrition. And at this time, what could be a better nutrition than broth! Now that there is beef and beef bones, it is natural to boil more soup for the patients to drink!
In the following days, Liu Haojia boiled medicine, boiled soup, took care of patients, and encouraged everyone to persevere! Maybe it's because of the broth three times a day, maybe it's because the patients have hope in their hearts that they want to live, and none of the patients in the ward have died so far! Even the most serious village chief, the pox buds on his body have begun to scab, and his body temperature has begun to drop, as if he is about to get better!
Seeing this, the villagers and patients alike said that he brought blessings! In fact, Liu Haojia knows what's going on! The biggest possibility of this situation that no one has died so far is that the virus has weakened its virulence after multiple infections! This, coupled with the fact that adequate nutrition and encouragement aroused the desire of these survivors, allowed them to survive.
Just when the village chief's condition was improving, Liu Haojia felt chills on his body! He knew he might have a fever! He immediately called everyone back to the camp to inquire about their situation. It turned out that half of the people had already started to have a fever!
Liu Haojia saw that these people with fever were pale and covered in cold sweat, I am afraid that most of them were frightened! Even people who don't have a fever have straight eyes and weak hearts!
