Chapter 141: Plague (1)

As long as we do these well, plus what we have brought, I believe that this difficulty will soon pass.

……

Arriving at the disaster area......

The green mountain, a few red tops stand at the foot of the mountain surrounded by willows, a fallen leaf on the thin willow branches goes down the wind, and the grass on the ground is also desperately blooming with the last bit of life, alternating green and yellow. This is a good time for the autumn harvest, but there are not many crops to harvest in the fields, they are almost destroyed by the flood, there are no farmers in the fields, there is no shepherd boy under the willows, the village is full of silence in the early morning, there is not even a cry waiting for the nursing child, but at this time there is a man's terrible cry, which means that the small number of people in the village is saved, and another person has been taken away by the long-awaited death.

Here, this little village, this sitting city, all began to fall in the plague......

Outside the city, Jiang Jiu and Huangpu Yi took the first step to get under the city gate, Feng Wu, Jiang Haoyu and the team that pressed the supplies were behind, and the refugees along the way needed to be properly disposed of, so their journey was a little slower, and they should arrive in the afternoon or evening.

"Open the gates!" Huangpu Wing rode on his horse and shouted to the guards guarding the city.

When one of the guards at the door heard the call, he looked over and saw a man and a woman riding horses downstairs looking at them. "It's a dangerous time, no one is allowed to enter the city, so let's go quickly."

"Go and tell your chief to come out, and say that the minister has arrived!" Huang Puyi said.

After a while, someone came out. "Who is coming! Where's Chincha-sama? A middle-aged man looked at Huang Puyi and Jiang Jiujiu and asked.

"We are from the emperor's lineup, this is Lord Rui!" Jiang Jiujiu pointed to Huangpu Yi and said to the middle-aged man upstairs.

"The emperor came in line, didn't the emperor say that there was a team of people in line?" The middle-aged man asked suspiciously.

"Let's go to the city and see what's going on? The large army is behind, and it is estimated that it will arrive this afternoon or evening! Huang Puyi said.

"I see, open the city gate and invite the prince in." The middle-aged man said with a wave of his hand.

After the city gate was opened, Huangpu Yi and Jiang Jiujiu drove their horses into the city, and when the middle-aged man saw the two of them coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Xiaguan has seen Lord Rui and Gongzi." Because for the convenience of travel, Jiang Jiuyue dressed up in men's clothes.

"You're a prefectural magistrate?" Jiang Jiujiu asked.

"No, the lower official is a county official."

"Oh, county magistrate, what about your county magistrate?" Huang Puyi asked as soon as he heard it.

"Hey, a brute of the county magistrate, he ran away with the money and food in the city."

……

Huang Pujiang stared at Jiang Jiu and said, "As far as you can see, what is the disease of this plague?" ”

Jiang Jiujiu and Huang Puyi flipped through the information they had collected before, and the more they looked at it, their brows couldn't help but wrinkle deeper.

Jiang Jiujiu's brain was already running wildly at this time, and when it came to curing the plague, she was undoubtedly rich in experience.

In modern times, although people have been spared the blind fear of plague due to the development of medical technology, the prevention and control of epidemics is still an extremely serious issue.

No one can bypass this field in the process of studying medicine, let alone a doctor like Jiang Jiujiu?

This time the plague had complex symptoms, some said it was a big head plague, some said it was dysentery, and some said it was smallpox, and all kinds of opinions were not unanimous.

"There are erythema, blisters, and pustules will form," Jiang Jiujiu thought in his heart, "It's not smallpox, it's like skin anthrax............

"There is also a big head plague, which is a local lymph node tumor......"

"High fever, poisoning all over the body, coughing up blood and dying, is this pneumonia?"

Jiang Huijia suddenly shuddered, and her heart suddenly became excited, and she blurted out: "It's the plague!" ”

"What?" Huangpu Yi looked over.

His gaze was weary, with a depth that was invisible.

Jiang Jiuqiang held back his shock, and finally suddenly said: "Huangpuyi, I have some answers in my heart, although I am not very sure, but I can say that it is for reference. ”

Without waiting for Huang Puyi to ask again, she explained: "Sudden chills, high fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, skin ecchymosis, bleeding, etc., are the initial symptoms of the plague. Then it recurs, and the local swelling and knotting, suppuration, and ulceration, which is the mid-stage plague. If it is re-......"

Speaking of this, she paused, and then said: "The smallpox mentioned by several seniors is actually smallpox plague, which is the mildest and not too difficult to treat, on the contrary, the symptoms of people who vomit, chills, and fever are actually more serious. ”

Vomiting, chills, and fever are generally glandular plague, and glandular plague is likely to turn into a pulmonary type, which may later cause pneumonia and sepsis, and under such conditions in ancient times, even Jiang Jiujiu did not dare to say that he could cure sepsis!

If it really is the plague, it may not be long before the terrible situation of disease and death everywhere will appear.

Jiang Jiujiu had studied the history of ancient plagues before, and he knew that during the Northern Song Dynasty, Kaifeng Mansion was plagued many times.

Huang Puyi breathed a sigh of relief, he said, "Not smallpox? It's not smallpox! ”

Jiang Jiuzheng said: "Huangpu Wing, the plague is more terrible than smallpox!" ”

The most terrible period of the development of the plague was in the Middle Ages in central Europe, in ancient China, before the Tang and Song dynasties, although the plague was not rare, but the plague was as terrible as the medieval period in Europe.

Therefore, Huangpu Yi did not clearly understand the horror of the plague.

Jiang Jiujiu believes that this is actually related to the development of traditional Chinese medicine in ancient China.

Since ancient times, every time there is an epidemic, there have been many famous doctors.
